The ground of the Immortal's Cave Mansion was also under the protection of the Immortal's Cave Mansion. Dabao couldn't use the Earth Escape Technique to go underground to find the Spiritual Vein.
After Lu Ping arrived at the Immortal's Cave Mansion, he found a remote place. Seeing that he didn't attract anyone's attention, Lu Ping made a few hand signs in succession. The ground within a radius of ten feet suddenly rumbled and shook. Then, Lu Ping quickly left.
Soon, cultivators who heard the sound came to investigate the nearby area. A moment later, Lu Ping also pretended to be a cultivator who was attracted by the ground shaking and wandered around the area where he had just cast the hand signs.
At this moment, four cultivators from the Crystal Palace rushed in the direction of Lu Ping. The four of them had an aggressive appearance and the aura of their cultivation pressed down on all the cultivators in the area.
The cultivation of the four people was not necessarily enough to suppress the cultivators on the spot. Of the four people, two were at the Mid Core Forging Realm and two were at the Early Core Forging Realm. One of them had the same cultivation as Lu Ping, but the name of the Crystal Palace was too big. The surrounding cultivators who didn't want to provoke them left the area.
Lu Ping also left, but Dabao was still underground. Previously, Lu Ping used his half-baked Spirit Clear Eyes to find that the Spiritual Qi in this area was the thickest in the Immortal's Cave Mansion besides the Heavy Profound Hall. Presumably, this was the place where the Spiritual Vein of the Immortal's Cave Mansion passed through. Therefore, Lu Ping broke the restriction on the ground and barely opened an opening. He put Dabao in and bet on whether or not he could find the Spiritual Gathering Pearl.
This was not like the time when Lu Ping activated the restriction light curtain in the Immortal's Cave Mansion. This time, it was equivalent to opening a hole in the entire Immortal's Cave Mansion's Protective Array. The amount of True Essence consumed and the movement caused was naturally not small.
After Lu Ping left, he used the Invisibility Technique and then used the restriction in the cave to cover his tracks. He sneaked back in the dark and watched the four people not far away.
The four cultivators in the Crystal Palace saw that there were no eyesores around them. The sixth-stage Core Forging Realm cultivator, who should be the leader of the four, said, "Hurry up. Skyrend and the other idiots haven't noticed yet. With the senior brothers there, they will never know that there is another important place in the Heavy Xuan Cave besides the refining room, the storage room, and the Heavy Xuan Hall."
The four of them quickly placed an array disc on the ground within a radius of 30 feet. At the same time, they also placed some other spiritual materials in the surroundings in a regular pattern. Lu Ping did not have a deep understanding of array formations, so he could not tell what kind of array formations the four of them were setting up.
He heard the weakest Crystal Palace cultivator ask, "Senior Brother Mu, the spirit vein in the Heavy Xuan Cave Mansion really passes through here. Don't make any mistakes."
The leading cultivator of the Crystal Palace with the highest cultivation was Senior Martial Brother Mu. He said, "It can't be wrong. According to the incomplete records in the Fei Ling Sect's jade slip we obtained, the spirit vein in Zhong Xuan's Immortal Cave indeed passes through here."
Another mid stage Core Forging Realm cultivator interrupted, "Senior Brother Mu is an expert in array formations. His judgment will not be wrong. Let's see if we can gain anything."
Another early stage Core Forging Realm cultivator also curiously asked, "Senior Brother Mu, Senior Brother Gao, what treasure are we looking for this time? Why would Heavy Xuan Laozu hide his treasure in the spirit vein?"
The two mid stage Core Forging Realm cultivators, Senior Brother Gao and Senior Brother Mu, looked at each other. Senior Brother Gao said, "Junior Brother Zhang, Junior Brother Wan, didn't you notice that as a cave mansion with two medium spirit veins, something is missing?"
"It seems like something is missing." Junior Brother Wan, who was first stage Core Forging Realm, hesitated. Then, he suddenly realized and said, "En, that's right. Such a big cave mansion, why is there no spirit herb garden in it?"
Junior Brother Zhang hesitated and said, "After all, Heavy Xuan Laozu is a refiner, not an alchemist. What's wrong with not growing spirit herbs?"
Senior Brother Mu shook his head and said, "Junior Brother Zhang was born in a famous cultivation family in the East Sea. He is also a cultivation genius. Since he was young, he has never lacked all kinds of cultivation resources. In the cultivation world, cultivation resources are always in short supply. Any cultivator who wants to open a cultivation cave will open a spiritual herb garden in any place where spiritual herbs can grow. This is almost common sense. Junior Martial Brother Zhang is already a Core Forging cultivator. When the time comes, don't forget to open a spiritual herb garden. "
Junior Brother Zhang blushed and said, "I'm ashamed. Thank you for your advice, Senior Brother."
When Junior Brother Wan heard that Senior Brother Mu confirmed his guess, he was surprised and asked, "Why did Heavy Xuan Laozu open a spirit herb garden underground?"
Senior Brother Mu and Senior Brother Gao looked at each other and smiled. This time, it was Junior Brother Zhang who spoke first, "Is it a spatial magic tool? Heavy Xuan Laozu hid a spatial magic tool underground. Not only is it hidden, but it can also make full use of the power of the spirit vein. "
Senior Brother Gao praised him, "Junior Brother Zhang has a long history of learning, so his knowledge is quite good."
As they spoke, the four finished setting up the formation. Senior Brother Mu said, "I'm going to open the formation. When the time comes, I will tear a hole in the formation on the ground. Because of the formation's protection, there won't be any movement. Junior Brothers, you still have to pay attention to the surroundings to avoid people spying on you."
After the two agreed, Senior Brother Mu made a few hand signs and the four formation plates were activated. The formation on the ground suddenly cracked a few feet long. Different from Lu Ping, there was no movement around. The formation also didn't react violently like when Lu Ping tore it.
When Senior Martial Brother Gao saw that Senior Martial Brother Mu had opened the array formation, he quickly shook the spirit beast pouch on his waist, and a one meter long pangolin fell to the ground. Senior Martial Brother Gao pointed at the ground, and the pangolin immediately disappeared into the ground.
Lu Ping listened to the conversation of the four and finally understood. No wonder he felt that there was something wrong with the Heavy Xuan Cave Abode, especially when he asked Dabao to look for the Spirit Gathering Pearls in the spirit vein. This feeling was especially strong. He always felt that this cave abode was missing something. It turned out that this cave abode occupied a large area and had a grand atmosphere. However, there wasn't a single spirit herb garden.
Immediately, Lu Ping started to worry. The pangolin was obviously a spirit pet controlled by Senior Brother Gao using some kind of forbidden secret technique. Its cultivation had already reached the late Blood Condensation Realm. If they met Dabao underground, Dabao would definitely not be a match for the pangolin. Senior Brother Gao would also know through the pangolin that there were other cultivators coveting the treasures in the spirit vein, even if Lu Ping didn't go for the spatial artifact.
Now, they could only pin their hopes on Dabao's sly character. Lu Ping's spirit pets were willing to follow him, and Lu Ping didn't place any restrictions on them. Therefore, Lu Ping knew nothing about Dabao's situation. He could only hope that it could detect danger in advance and escape. Fortunately, although the pangolin was a mid-level demonic beast, and its cultivation was higher than Dabao's, that was only in terms of strength. In terms of Earth Escape, Dabao was not much weaker than the pangolin. Moreover, when Dabao entered the mid Blood Condensation Realm, he refined the Condensed Blood Bead from a pangolin, which further enhanced his Earth Escape.
Sure enough, a moment later, Senior Brother Gao shouted, "Not good! There's a demonic beast underground. It's actually a Spirit Seeking Mouse. It can run very fast. Quickly check if there are other cultivators around. "
Junior Brother Zhang and Junior Brother Wan heard the news and quickly looked around. Senior Brother Mu frowned and asked, "How is it?"
"We haven't found it yet, but we found two Spirit Gathering Pearls. One of them was snatched from the Spirit Seeking Mouse by Tie Shan. However, this mouse is very slippery. When it saw that it was no match for Tie Shan, it turned around and ran."
"Ah!"
"Senior Brother, save me!"
Suddenly, two screams came from afar. Senior Brother Mu and Senior Brother Gao were shocked. They quickly took out their magic treasures and got up to help.
However, as soon as they moved, cultivators from the east, south, and north surrounded them. A moment later, three female cultivators slowly walked over from the west where the screams came from. Lu Ping recognized two of them. One was Zhu Xuanmeng, and the other was Chu Ting. Only the one in the middle that Lu Ping didn't recognize was a late-stage Core Forging cultivator.
"Who are you? How dare you kill a disciple of the Crystal Palace? Aren't you afraid that the Crystal Palace will be punished?"
Senior Brother Mu asked sternly without a trace of fear. His expression was exactly the same as that of the Spiritual Master of the Crystal Palace who died in the hands of Lu Ping and the other two.
"The Crystal Palace is still as overbearing as ever. Even when death is at hand, they are still so strong!"
The middle-aged female cultivator who came with Zhu Xuanmeng sneered and said in a sarcastic tone.
Chu Ting frowned and said coldly, "Martial Aunt Jiang, it's better to act quickly. We don't want any delay!"
The middle-aged female cultivator, Martial Aunt Jiang, snorted coldly. She seemed to be very dissatisfied with Chu Ting's tone, but she was also a little afraid. She took out a golden saber and rushed toward the two mid-stage Core Forging cultivators of the Crystal Palace.
The other five cultivators, except for Chu Ting, also launched a siege. Senior Brother Mu and Senior Brother Gao were no match for four hands. Not to mention that there was not only a late-stage Core Forging cultivator holding the line, but the other four were also not ordinary mid-stage Core Forging cultivators. The two of them had just sent out a Talisman for help, and a moment later, they were beaten to death by the five people.
Chu Ting came to the place where Senior Brother Mu had torn open the Protective Array. After melting an elixir in her hand, she sprinkled the elixir liquid on the ground. Suddenly, a rich fragrance wafted in the air. Chu Ting made a few hand signs and the elixir liquid soaked into the soil. The fragrance in the air immediately disappeared.
Lu Ping looked at the elixir in Chu Ting's hand with a solemn expression. He was already holding the Golden Scale Sword in his hand, ready to attack at any time.
The leader, Martial Aunt Jiang, urged, "Girl Chu, are you done? The two people of the Crystal Palace had already sent out a Talisman for help. If the Heavy Mystery Hall had not been breached and the cultivators were not fighting for the treasures inside, the cultivators of the Crystal Palace would have already come to help. Mei Qin is getting more and more arrogant. She only sent out a first-stage Core Forging girl for such an important mission. "
Chu Ting was focused on the matter in front of her and ignored Martial Aunt Jiang's mockery. Zhu Xuanmeng, who was beside her, said coldly, "She doesn't need to deal with these trivial matters. Martial Aunt Jiang is enough to deal with it. My master is about to break through to the Dharma Realm. If there is anything that Martial Aunt Jiang is unable to do, my master will naturally take care of it."
Zhu Xuanmeng mocked her for making a mountain out of a molehill and saying that she was not as smart as Immortal Mei. Martial Aunt Jiang was about to explode, but when she heard Zhu Xuanmeng say that "my master is about to break through to the Dharma Realm", she forcibly suppressed her anger.
The other three mid-stage Core Forging cultivators were like clay statues, ignoring the confrontation between Martial Aunt Jiang and Zhu Xuanmeng.
At this moment, a hole suddenly appeared in the ground. Lu Ping, who was hiding at the side, felt his heart skip a beat. Then he saw a pangolin with blurred eyes coming out of the ground.
After Senior Brother Gao of the Crystal Palace died, as a forbidden beast, the pangolin would also be seriously injured. It might even lose its mind and die of madness. However, Chu Ting had used some kind of elixir to lure the pangolin out of the ground. Lu Ping had obviously guessed what Chu Ting was going to do and was worried that Dabao would also be lured out by her. Therefore, he was prepared to snatch the pangolin when he appeared.
Chu Ting patted the pangolin's head with her palm. The pangolin opened its mouth and spat out five Spirit-Gathering Pearls, one big and four small, and then fell to the ground, dead.
Chu Ting put the five pearls away and said, "It's a pity that the pangolin didn't find a spatial instrument in the spirit vein. But it's not bad to have five Spirit-Gathering Pearls. This big one is obviously enough to nurture a small spirit vein."
"Who dares to kill a disciple of the Crystal Palace!"
As soon as Chu Ting's voice fell, an angry roar came. Before the person arrived, his aura had already oppressed them.
"Oh no, it's a master at the peak of the Core Forging Realm. Damn it! What are those cultivators in the boudoir doing to collect information? I can't believe there's such a master among the cultivators of the Crystal Palace."
Martial Uncle Jiang hurriedly cursed. He reached out his hand and smashed the array plates set by the cultivators of the Crystal Palace. The torn array on the ground immediately closed up.
At this moment, a figure was rushing toward them from the direction of the Heavy Mystery Palace.
"Go!"
Martial Uncle Jiang shouted. The six cultivators of the Core Forging Realm in the boudoir quickly flew away.
The master of the Crystal Palace who was chasing after them roared angrily and chased in the direction of the six cultivators. Then another five cultivators of the middle and late stage of the Core Forging Realm from the Crystal Palace rushed to the place where the array was set up. Looking at the mess on the ground, everyone's face turned pale. Then they stood up and rushed in the direction of the master of the Core Forging Realm from the Crystal Palace with a murderous look.
After everyone left, Lu Ping quickly walked to the place where the array was set up. He quickly made a few incantations with his hands. He didn't care about the True Essence in his body being drained like water. The ground shook and a huge rat scurried out of the ground.
Lu Ping grabbed Dabao and didn't wait for him to make a sound. He put him into the spirit beast bag and quickly left.
Not long after Lu Ping left, a few cultivators with long swords on their backs rushed over. Seeing the scene in front of them, how could they not know what had happened? They laughed out loud, gloating. Then they quickly stopped. They saw more than ten cultivators of the Crystal Palace also rushing over. They fiercely glared at the cultivators of Skyrend. Finally, they couldn't stand the strange look in Skyrend's eyes and also chased in the direction of the cultivators of the Crystal Palace.
After the cultivators of Skyrend left, other cultivators rushed over to check. They were discussing who had eaten the heart of a bear and the leopard to have the guts to kill the master of the Core Forging Realm from the Crystal Palace.
At this time, Lu Ping had already walked to a place where there was no one. After putting up a few light curtains, he took Dabao out.
Seeing that Dabao wasn't hurt and wasn't confused by Chu Ting's pill, he let out a long sigh of relief.
Dabao squeaked a few times and then spat out a Spirit Gathering Pearl the size of half a fist from its mouth.
Lu Ping was happy and said, "I didn't expect to have such a harvest. This Spirit Gathering Pearl is enough to nurture a small Spirit Vein!"
This Spirit Gathering Pearl was the same size as the large Spirit Gathering Pearl that the pangolin spat out.
Hearing Lu Ping's praise, Dabao became even more excited and sometimes squeaked.
Lu Ping had a strange look on his face. He saw Dabao spit out a golden house that was half a foot long from its mouth!
