"Can you confirm these auras?"
The one who spoke was the white-robed cultivator on the left.
"Don't worry, I've already memorized the aura of those cultivators in linen clothes. Unfortunately, the other group of people left too quickly, and the aura of the Emerald Sea Spirit Serpent also strangely disappeared. It seems that the other group of people either has a secret technique to hide their tracks, or they have a similar magical pill."
"Old Black, are you sure that the aura of the Green Sea Snake appeared here?"
The black-robed cultivator, Old Black, glanced at the white-robed cultivator and said, "You don't trust Old Black's sense of smell? Otherwise, why would I call you over? It's a pity that we're too late. "
The white-robed cultivator was puzzled. "That can't be right. I've never heard of anyone from the Chu clan coming to the human race, much less to the Northern Alliance."
The black-robed cultivator chuckled and said, "Who knows? Judging from the lingering aura, the Green Sea Snake's cultivation isn't that high. Perhaps it's another child who sneaked out. It's not like something like this hasn't happened to the Chu clan before. Two of their children were eaten by the Yan clan's silkpants, and the two clans became enemies because of that."
"It's indeed a pity. If we can find these Green Sea Snakes, we might be able to steal their bloodline. Who knows, our cultivation might rise to the next level." The white-robed cultivator had a greedy look on his face.
"Don't even think about it. Putting aside the fact that these Green Sea Snakes have low cultivation, we might not be able to use their bloodline. Even if we're lucky enough to steal their bloodline, do you think you can hide it from the Chu clan? In the future, the Snake clan will no longer be a hiding place for us two brothers."
Hearing the black-robed cultivator's warning, the white-robed cultivator's expression changed. With an embarrassed smile, he said, "It's just a joke. How could I possibly dare to make a move on the Green Sea Snakes? What should we do now? We found traces of the Green Sea Snakes in Qianyuan City. Should we report it to the Chu clan?"
"Naturally, we will. However, we need to first figure out the identities of these feline-clothed cultivators. Since they dared to attack the Green Sea Snake, the Chu Family might fly into a rage."
When Lu Ping returned to his cave residence, he naturally didn't know that the news of the Green Sea Snake appearing in Qianyuan City had already spread to the Demon Race. At this time, a guest had been waiting in his cave residence for a long time.
"Welcome, Sect Leader Qiao. I apologize for not going out to welcome you!"
Seeing that Lu Ping was being so polite, Dark Mountain Gang Leader Qiao Zhengyan quickly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Brother Lu is too kind to the Old Man. Who doesn't know Brother Lu's name in Heaven Essence City now? You and I can talk to each other as equals. The Old Man doesn't deserve the title of Senior! "
Lu Ping did not fuss too much about these empty courtesies. Instead, he asked, "Is there something wrong with Young Master Qiao's injury? I've been busy these days, so I've delayed Young Master Qiao's alchemy. "
Seeing that Lu Ping took the initiative to talk about alchemy, Qiao Zhengyan was relieved and said, "My injury is still the same. I've been through it for so many years. A few more days won't make much of a difference."
Lu Ping took the storage bag from Qiao Zhengyan. There were already three sets of spiritual herbs needed to refine the Spiritual Water Meridian Nourishing Pill. At the same time, there was a jade bowl filled with clear spiritual water.
"This is the Spiritual Clarity Water?"
Lu Ping asked in surprise.
Qiao Zhengyan smiled and said, "Brother Lu has a good eye. Everyone says that alchemists are the most knowledgeable people in the cultivation world. What I've seen today is indeed true. Brother Lu, if you want to concoct this miraculous pill, according to the pill recipe, a high-grade spirit water is a must. This Spirit Brightsight Water is a miraculous item that the Dark Mountain Gang obtained by accident. Even though it can't compare to the Spirit Water of Heaven and Earth, it should be enough to create a spirit pill. If Brother Lu is able to concoct this spirit pill, this spirit water will be your reward. "
Lu Ping looked at the bowl of spiritual water and then at Qiao Zhengyan. He smiled and said, "Alright, this spiritual water is indeed very useful to me. I won't be unreasonable anymore. I will be staying in Heaven Essence City for a while. If the Dark Mountain Gang needs anything, just let me know. "
Qiao Zhengyan was overjoyed to get Lu Ping's promise, but Lu Ping didn't care. Qiao Zhengyan was only here to refine the pill. Now that Yue Jiangrui was here, it would be a waste not to earn this favor.
After sending Qiao Zhengyan away, Lu Ping's face darkened. He began to wonder who had such a big grudge against him that they would risk offending the Northern Alliance and ambush him in Heaven Essence City. They even sent a Core Forging Enlightened Master to kill him.
However, it seemed that the Core Forging Enlightened Master didn't expect Lu Ping to be so difficult to deal with. Otherwise, he wouldn't have acted so hastily after Lu Ping killed his subordinates, giving Lu Ping a chance to buy time. If the Core Forging Enlightened Master had used his full strength from the beginning, Lu Ping's life would be in danger.
The only worry was that the Core Forging Enlightened Master had already seen Samling. He didn't know if the Core Forging Enlightened Master could recognize Samling's identity as the Green Sea Snake. However, from the experience of a Core Forging Enlightened Master, Lu Ping had better be prepared for his identity as the Spirit Snake to be exposed. Fortunately, this was Heaven Essence City. Even if the Demon Clan came knocking, they wouldn't dare to make a big fuss.
Although the Clear Spirit Water was also a kind of Heaven and Earth Mysterious Treasure, it was a pity that it couldn't be integrated into Lu Ping's Aura Shield. Although Lu Ping's Aura Shield could be integrated with another kind of water attribute Heaven and Earth Mysterious Treasure, the real use of the Clear Spirit Water was not to be used on the Aura Shield.
"Three Pure Eyes" was a kind of Small Divine Ability that Lu Ping heard from Hu Lili. This Small Divine Ability could see through illusions, and it was the most important for cultivators who practiced formations.
The refinement of this Small Divine Ability required at least three kinds of water attribute Heaven and Earth Mysterious Treasures that had the effect of clearing the eyes and awakening the mind. The Clear Spirit Water was one of the most suitable Heaven and Earth Mysterious Treasures.
This small bowl of Clear Spirit Water seemed to be just enough for the two of them to use to cleanse their eyes. How could Lu Ping be willing to use it for alchemy? The Myriad Poison Liquid was also a Heaven and Earth Mysterious Treasure, but it could not be used for alchemy unless it was used to harm people like the Dark Prison Poisonous Fire. As for the Myriad Poison Liquid, Lu Ping still didn't know what kind of Spirit Water it was. However, if he soaked in the Myriad Poison Liquid for a long time, Lu Ping naturally wouldn't take the risk.
As a result, only the small pond of Kui Water essence that Lu Ping had used up more than half of was left in the Thousand Bell Millet.
Originally, Lu Ping had thrown three Ninth Grade White Jade Lotus seeds into this small pond. Now, they probably hadn't even germinated. Lu Ping didn't have any scruples. The remaining one-third of the Kui Water essence was scooped up by Lu Ping.
Spirit Water Meridian Nourishing Pill!
This was a peculiar way of using Spirit Water for alchemy. When Lu Ping saw this pill recipe, his heart surged with great joy. This was definitely the birth of a new school of alchemy.
Alchemy required the use of fire. This was common knowledge in the Cultivation World. Therefore, the vast majority of alchemists in the Cultivation World practiced fire-attribute or wood-attribute cultivation methods. This was a great help for alchemists to control fire and familiarize themselves with medicinal properties. Like Lu Ping, who achieved his current level of alchemy with a water-attribute cultivation method, it could be said to be an anomaly in the Cultivation World. The effort, losses, and fortuitous encounters required for this were not known to outsiders.
In the eyes of some shallow alchemists, this Water Spirit Meridian Nourishing Pellet's concoction with spirit water was a ridiculous idea. While some knowledgeable alchemists could see the value of the technique, they couldn't control the spirit water to concoct the pellets. Unless they could be like Lu Ping, who used a water-elemental cultivation technique to control the spirit water with the Indigo Spiritual Fire, spending a lot of time to refine the spirit water with a fire-elemental cultivation technique. Then, the cauldron would explode again and again to improve his water-elemental alchemy technique.
Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that some alchemists had other concerns and deliberately reprimanded this pill recipe for being absurd. After all, the birth of a new school of alchemy would inevitably have a new impact on alchemists. What's more, this kind of alchemy school gave cultivators who had absolutely no chance to become alchemists a chance to become alchemists. This was a phenomenon that some alchemists absolutely didn't want to see, let alone face. This was the narrow-mindedness and stubbornness of alchemists.
However, to Lu Ping, this new method of alchemy seemed to have been specially prepared for him. It was simply a match made in heaven!
Compared to pills refined with Spirit Fire, Spirit Water Meridian Nourishing Pill did not have an immediate effect, but it had the possibility of a long period of nourishment and recovery. It was the most suitable for cultivators who had been injured for a long period of time and had a weak body. This was because these cultivators often couldn't bear the impact of the violent medicinal power because their bodies had been injured for a long period of time.
The Kui Water Essence was easily manipulated by Lu Ping, extracting the medicinal efficacies from the spirit herbs in the cauldron over and over again. Then, Lu Ping used the [Purification Technique] to purify and condense the medicinal efficacies from the Kui Water Essence. Finally, he melted a portion of the Kui Water Essence into the medicinal efficacies. Several pellets that were as soft as water droplets and could change shape at will without breaking were refined.
Qiao Zhengyan, who had been waiting for a long time, was overjoyed. He hurriedly brought the pills back. A few months later, the young master of the Dark Mountain Gang, who had been paralyzed for several years due to cultivation deviation, miraculously recovered and successfully advanced to the Core Forging Realm.
Immediately after that, internal strife broke out in the Dark Mountain Gang. The Dark Mountain Gang's leader, Qiao Zhengyan, teamed up with another hall leader who was in the Core Forging Realm to accuse the rebellious hall leader of plotting to usurp the position of the gang leader and murder the young master of the Dark Mountain Gang.
The rebellious hall leader was quickly killed. After the rebellion was quelled, the position of hall leader was taken over by Qiao Zhengyan's son, Qiao Jiewei.
At this time, Lu Ping was releasing bees in the Dark Mountain Gang's spiritual herb garden. The Purple Crystal Bees had all advanced to the Mid Blood Refining Realm, and the Queen Bee had even reached the Late Blood Refining Realm. After forming the Dao Soldier Formation, more than 200 Purple Crystal Bees were enough to fight against a Mid Blood Condensation Realm cultivator.
However, if he wanted to let this swarm of Purple Crystal Bees multiply, he would have to wait for the Queen Bee to reach the Blood Condensation Realm.
Yue Jiangrui walked over from afar and looked at the 200 Purple Crystal Bees flying around in the spiritual herb garden. A trace of envy flashed across his face.
Lu Ping turned around and asked, "Are you done refining?"
"It's just some healing pills that don't matter. The Dark Mountain Gang's rebellion was quelled very quickly. Other than the death of a hall leader in the Core Forging Realm, they didn't suffer too much damage. Other than healing pills, you also promised to refine a large number of cultivation pills for them. Is a small Dark Mountain Gang worth investing so much in?"
"Who knows what will happen in the future? They're the ones providing the spiritual herbs anyway, so we won't lose anything." Lu Ping smiled indifferently.
"So you're not the one refining the pills!" Yue Jiangrui was very dissatisfied with Lu Ping's behavior of ordering him around like a coolie.
"I'm a servant," Lu Ping smirked. "Of course I have to have the awareness of being a servant."
