The roar wasn't aimed at Lu Ping, but the laughing Enlightened Master Liang Xuanfeng. And as soon as the roaring man attacked, Lu Ping knew he couldn't handle a battle of this level.
A late-stage Core Forging Perfected Master!
A strange chill hit them in the face, and the surface of the sea below the Flowing Cloud Ship immediately turned into ice. At the same time, the Flowing Cloud Ship's body was also covered in a dense layer of frost. The Flowing Cloud Ship's speed instantly dropped.
Suddenly, Lu Ping heard a buzzing sound in his head. The dark clouds that were controlled by his [Art of Moving Clouds and Summoning Rain] suddenly broke free from his control. The entire dark cloud shrouded the sky above the Flowing Cloud Skiff, and hail the size of goose eggs rained down on the three people on the skiff. At the same time, the entire dark cloud suddenly collapsed towards the center, and the surrounding clouds quickly shrunk towards the center of the collapse. When the entire dark cloud disappeared, a huge ice cone that was dozens of feet long hovered above the skiff and smashed down towards the skiff.
Perfected Liang Xuanfeng stopped laughing and his expression turned solemn. Unknowingly, a long sword had already flown towards the ice awl. However, the three-foot-long flying sword seemed extremely tiny in front of the ice awl that was hundreds of feet long.
Lu Ping looked at the flying sword and sighed. Lu Ping knew that Perfected Liang Xuanfeng's natal artifact wasn't a flying sword, and this flying sword was obviously a magical artifact. Moreover, the quality of this flying sword was higher than the Golden Scale Sword.
"Split!"
Perfected Liang Xuanfeng shouted, and the flying sword immediately split into eighteen swords in the sky. As he performed a series of dazzling sword techniques, each of the eighteen flying swords in the sky displayed a set of sword techniques!
Qingfeng Sword, Qingfeng Sword, Coldwind Sword, Zephyr Sword, Howling Wind Sword, Whirlwind Sword, Stormwind Sword …
Lu Ping was dumbfounded. This was Xuan Ling Sect's famous "Merry Eighteen Swords"!
Furthermore, each of Perfected Liang Xuanfeng's 18 swords were made up of 72 Spiritual Sword Flashes. Altogether, there were a total of 1,296 Spiritual Sword Flashes, the highest realm of Spiritual Sword Flashes.
The ice spikes in the sky immediately crumbled under the combined attack of the 18 swords. Reverend Liang Xuanfeng pointed his left hand downwards and the 18 swords split into two. Nine of them continued to swim in the sky, preventing the other cultivators from launching another sneak attack. The other eight swords formed a huge wind drill and broke a hole in the ice on the surface of the sea. The Flowing Cloud Boat followed closely behind and disappeared into the sea.
The moment the Drifting Cloud Boat entered the sea, Lu Ping formed nine seals in a row. "Kid, you have quite a few tricks up your sleeve!" Perfected Liang Xuanfeng smiled.
Lu Ping curled his lips and said, "How can I compare to Uncle-Master? You've even mastered Xuan Ling Sect's signature sword technique to such a high level! I'm afraid Xuan Ling Sect will have to take the blame for you, Martial Uncle. " Perfected Liang Xuanfeng didn't think much of it. "Only Xuan Ling Sect. I don't care if other sects want to take the blame!"
Lu Ping chuckled. "Hehe. You're a genius, Martial Uncle. Of course you have high standards. But Uncle-Master, can you teach me this sword technique?"
"Why? You want Xuan Ling Sect to take the blame too?" asked Perfected Liang Xuanfeng with a faint smile.
"Of course I won't miss the chance!" Lu Ping smiled.
At Lu Ping's level of swordsmanship, it was extremely difficult to make any progress. Only by studying the sword techniques of hundreds of schools, absorbing their essence and making up for their weaknesses, would one be able to master swordsmanship. Perfected Liang Xuanfeng knew what Lu Ping was thinking, so he promised to teach him the "Eighteen Merry Swords" after they came out of Zhong Xuan's cave.
Following closely behind Lu Ping's group, the other Core Forging Masters also rushed into the whirlpool. But the moment the two Dharma Treasures entered the water, they felt as if the water around them had come alive. Dozens of undercurrents grabbed the two Dharma Treasures like dozens of arms. By the time the Dharma Treasures broke free, they were already a step behind Lu Ping's group and were overtaken by the people behind them.
At the bottom of the sea, a huge light shield covered a mysterious cave abode. This was where Zhong Xuan Laozu's cave abode was located. From afar, there were two huge holes in the shield, one in the north and one in the south. Obviously, the holes were left by Skyrend and the Crystal Palace's attacks.
When the three of them got closer, Perfected Liang Xuanfeng went up to take a look and said, "We're not very lucky. This is the shield of the Crystal Palace."
At this moment, the three of them did not have the time to lament about who they would encounter. Although the Crystal Palace cultivators had broken the barrier here, they naturally would not allow the cultivators behind them to take the shortcut. They had already resealed the broken barrier.
Of course, in a hurry, the seal was far inferior to Zhong Xuan Laozu's shield. Perfected Liang Xuanfeng changed three sets of hand seals in a row. When the third set of hand seals was cast, the light of the sealed shield dimmed.
Reverend Liang Xuanfeng's face lit up. He performed another hand seal and the seal immediately dissipated. The three of them hastily walked in. By then, the cultivators behind them had already caught up. Reverend Liang Xuanfeng snickered and performed the third set of hand seals. This time, however, he performed it in reverse. The seal from before appeared on the barrier once more, sealing it up.
As soon as the three of them entered, they felt a strong spiritual force.
"The concentration of spiritual qi is more than one medium spiritual vein, right?!" Zhu Xuanmeng said in surprise, "It seems that Zhong Xuan Laozu's management was quite successful."
Perfected Liang Xuanfeng said, "Of course. After all, Zhong Xuan Laozu planned to restore the sect back then. Without some foundation, how would he dare to make such a bold statement!"
Ignoring the cultivators' curses, the three of them hurriedly disappeared into the shield.
After walking for a while, Perfected Liang Xuanfeng suddenly stopped and said, "No, the Crystal Palace is obviously going for the refinery room of Zhong Xuan's cave abode. Zhong Xuan Laozu's refinery furnace and the Purple Fire must be in the refinery room, so the Sky Wind Leaf must not be in the same place as the Purple Fire. Moreover, the Crystal Palace isn't that stupid. They have the advantage in numbers, so they must have set up an ambush ahead to buy time for our sect to fight for the treasure. We need to open another path."
Lu Ping and Zhu Xuanmeng nodded in agreement. Zhu Xuanmeng said, "Uncle-Master, don't you have the magical power to detect the location of the Sky Wind Leaf? You can check it out now."
Liang Xuanfeng shook his head and said, "There are many restrictions here. My magical power will only be effective within a certain range. We are only at the periphery of the cave abode. My magical power will only be effective inside the cave abode. Let's choose a random path and try our luck. We are not too late, so there will definitely be some gains. It just depends on the size."
Lu Ping reached out and grabbed. Dabao, who was sleeping in the spiritual beast bag, suddenly felt the skin on his neck tighten. When he opened his eyes, he was already in a strange place.
The two of them looked at the fat rat in Lu Ping's hand in shock. Lu Ping didn't explain and directly ordered Dabao, "Choose a path for us!"
Dabao, who was already at the Fifth Layer of the Blood Condensation Realm, lowered his head and ran towards the path opened by the Crystal Palace. Lu Ping grabbed his beard and scolded, "Idiot, not this one!"
Dabao squeaked a few times in futile protest. Only then did he sniff the ground and walk towards a corridor on the left.
Liang Xuanfeng chuckled and followed behind Lu Ping. Zhu Xuanmeng looked at Lu Ping in surprise and followed behind as well.
Da Bao had just taken a step towards the entrance of the corridor when he seemed to have collided with an invisible wall, causing him to squeak in pain. Perfected Liang Xuanfeng went forward and struck a few hand seals, causing ripples to appear at the entrance of the corridor before it calmed down again.
Liang Xuanfeng frowned and said, "These restrictions are a little troublesome. It's not hard to break but it will take a lot of time. I'm afraid the people behind will catch up."
Zhu Xuanmeng pondered and said, "Should we use spells to attack it or choose another path?"
Liang Xuanfeng shook his head and said, "The restrictions here are connected to the entire cave abode's formation. If we use force to break it, we will probably trigger a response from the entire formation. It will be even more difficult to break it. The other paths will be the same."
For a moment, the three of them seemed to be at a loss. Lu Ping thought for a while and looked at the invisible barrier at the corridor. A strange light actually appeared in his eyes.
Lu Ping's actions naturally could not be hidden from Liang Xuanfeng. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he did not disturb Lu Ping. Instead, he quietly watched Lu Ping's next step. Zhu Xuanmeng looked at Lu Ping. Which Uncle-Master was this person's disciple? She felt that she could not see through this person anymore.
Spiritual Clarity Eyes!
This was the first stage of the minor technique, the Three Pure Ones True Pupils.
Using the method Hu Lili taught him, Lu Ping used half of the Clear Spirit Water given to him by the Dark Mountain Gang Master, Qiao Zhengyan, to cleanse his eyes. It took him half a year to complete the first stage of the [Three Pure Ones True Pupils]. As for the remaining half of the Clear Spirit Water, Lu Ping naturally left it to Hu Lili.
Right now, Lu Ping's Spiritual Clarity Eyes was still very shallow. He could see through some ordinary illusionary formations and bewildering formations, but he was still far from being able to see through these complicated formations.
However, Lu Ping soon discovered that he was extremely familiar with the complex array formations and restrictions!
Lu Ping turned around and looked at the two people behind him with a strange expression. Then, he stretched out his hand and made a few strange hand seals. As Lu Ping poured out a large amount of True Essence, the ripples of the restrictions in front of them reappeared in front of the three of them. Then, with a shake, it was broken!
The three of them quickly passed through the broken light curtain. Lu Ping turned around and made a few more hand seals. The previous ripples of the restrictions reappeared and sealed the corridor again.
Looking at the two people's surprised eyes, Lu Ping shrugged and said, "I have also been to Fei Ling Island. These restrictions are recorded in the inheritance jade slips that I obtained."
As soon as the three of them left through the corridor, a few cultivators caught up from behind. However, Liang Xuanfeng and the other two people were nowhere to be seen.
The leading cultivator said doubtfully, "Strange, where did the three people in front go? Are they stupid enough to go to the Crystal Palace's ambush?"
