Tian Ling Mountain was still filled with lush greenery, chirping birds, and the fragrance of flowers.
Lu Ping and Perfected Liang Xuanfeng agreed on a time to visit, then flew towards Chong Hua Prefecture.
At this time, there were many Blood Condensation cultivators around Chong Hua Prefecture. Because Perfected Liu Xuanling had advanced to the Dharma stage, the entire Zhenling Sect was busy preparing for the Dharma Assembly. Looking at the joyful faces of the cultivators, it was obvious that the appearance of every Dharma Manifestation Laozu had a great impact on a sect. This was especially so for a place like the North Sea where the overall cultivation situation was far inferior to the East Sea. The birth of a Dharma Manifestation Laozu could directly affect the balance of the entire North Sea cultivation world.
The cultivators along the way were all puzzled when they saw Lu Ping walking towards them. However, when they got closer and sensed the unfathomable aura from Lu Ping, they all became respectful.
Lu Ping didn't mind at all. After he became Enlightened Master Liu Xuanling's disciple, other than attending lectures and asking for advice on cultivation problems, he rarely returned to Tian Ling Mountain. Instead, he cultivated in his own cave-dwelling on Huang Li Island.
Many years had passed, and he did not know the situation on Huang Li Island. Huang Li Island was located at the outermost part of the buffer zone. After the Beast Tide, it would probably be the first place to be attacked by the beasts. Judging from the security on Huang Li Island at that time, it was very likely that the island had already been attacked by the beasts. It was a pity that the cave abode was not there. Lu Ping had already gathered five mini spirit veins there.
There were also some cultivators who recognized Lu Ping and looked shocked. They were obviously surprised by the reappearance of Lu Ping, the ninth disciple of Chong Hua Prefecture who had been missing for many years. Most cultivators thought that he was dead. Coupled with Lu Ping's Core Forging cultivation, this surprise turned into shock!
In the blink of an eye, Lu Ping's identity, cultivation base, and some legends about him spread like wildfire. Whether it was intentional or not, the sudden appearance of a Core Forging Realm cultivator was enough to attract the attention of the cave-dwellings on Tian Ling Mountain, as well as the clans in Zhen Ling Sect's territory. Not to mention, this Core Forging Realm cultivator was a little special.
For example, his teacher was the newly advanced Dharma Manifestation Laozu Liu Tianling.
For example, after this disciple went missing, Liu Xuanling and Xuan Chen, two Core Forging experts, joined hands to wreak havoc in the Yuan Family, smashing the Yuan Family's manor into pieces. It seemed to be related to this disciple's disappearance.
When this disciple went missing, he was only at the Eighth Layer of the Blood Condensation Realm. In just a few years, he had already reached the Third Layer of the Core Forging Realm. Where did he go? What did he encounter? Why did he come back at this time?
… …
For a moment, Lu Ping's return was like a small stone thrown into the surging undercurrents of Zhenling. Although it didn't cause any raging waves, it caused the surface of Zhenling to be no longer calm.
In Chong Hua Prefecture, Liu Tianling Laozu seemed to have already noticed Lu Ping's return. He stood in the Chong Hua Palace and smiled as he looked at Lu Ping. When Liu Tianling Laozu sensed Lu Ping's cultivation, the smile on the corner of his eyes became even wider. His face revealed an imperceptible surprise and gratification.
"Master!" When Lu Ping entered the palace, he saw that his master was still dressed in palace attire and looking at him with a smile. He hurriedly walked forward and bowed. "Disciple congratulates Master on attaining the Dharma stage, Laozu!"
Liu Tianling Laozu nodded and said, "The Spirit-Forging Pill that you provided back then was also a big part of my achievements. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have been able to achieve an eighth-grade Golden Core."
Lu Ping was overjoyed. He knew that if a cultivator wanted to successfully attain the Dharma stage, it was best to condense a seventh-grade Golden Core or above. His master had achieved an eighth-grade Golden Core, which meant that his future achievements would not be any lower than the mid-Dharma stage Celestial Phenomenon Laozu.
Lu Ping took out a jade scroll and handed it to his master. "Master, this is a jade scroll that Uncle-Master Liang Xuanfeng obtained from Zhongxuan's cave in the East Sea. Uncle-Master Liang's cultivation seems to have reached a critical stage of merging spirit items, and he needs to go into seclusion to train. I'm afraid that he won't be able to attend your Dharma meeting, so he asked me to give this jade scroll to you as a congratulatory gift."
Liu Tianling Laozu took the jade scroll and scanned it with his divine sense. He suddenly looked at Lu Ping in surprise and said, "The Linhai Wave Listening Technique?"
Lu Ping nodded.
Liu Tianling Laozu skimmed through it and said happily, "It is indeed the complete Linhai Wave Listening Technique. It is said that when Zhongxuan Laozu of the Fei Ling Sect fled to the East Sea, he did indeed take a part of the Fei Ling Sect's heritage from Fei Ling Island. At that time, people guessed that the Linhai Wave Listening Technique was among them, but I didn't expect Brother Liang to find it."
Lu Ping smiled and said, "With the complete Linhai Wave Listening Technique, this technique can be upgraded to the sixth true technique of our sect in your hands."
Liu Tianling looked at Lu Ping and smiled. "I didn't expect my ninth disciple to have learned how to flatter me! But with the complete technique in hand, if I don't try it out, I'd be letting this technique down. "
At first, Lu Ping was a little embarrassed by his teacher's teasing, but after listening to his teacher's words, he was encouraged by his teacher's confidence.
At this moment, Second Senior Sister Li Xuanru, Third Senior Sister Zhao Xuanji, Fourth Senior Sister Wang Xuanjing, Sixth Senior Sister Chen Xuanwei, and Tenth Junior Sister Jiang Xuanxuan walked in one after another. Behind them was Leng Qian. Obviously, everyone had heard about Lu Ping's return and came to Chong Hua Manor to greet him.
Lu Ping greeted his Senior Sisters and Junior Sisters one by one, and even Leng Qian greeted him as if nothing had happened. Seeing that Lu Ping didn't embarrass Leng Qian on the spot, Laozu didn't show it on his face, but there was a hint of approval in his eyes. However, Tenth Junior Sister Jiang Xuanxuan snorted coldly, obviously dissatisfied with Lu Ping's greeting to Leng Qian, but she didn't say anything.
Second Senior Sister Li Xuanru was afraid that the atmosphere would turn awkward, so she said with a smile, "I just heard from one of our disciples that not only has her Ninth Martial Uncle returned, but he has also become a Core Forging Enlightened Master. I didn't believe it at first, but now I realize that I've wronged this disciple. Not only has Ninth Junior Brother become a Core Forging Enlightened Master, but he has also reached the Third Stage of Core Forging. This is truly amazing!"
"That's right." Fourth Senior Sister Wang Xuanjing was usually the most humorous person. She said with a smile, "Fortunately, I just advanced to the Middle Stage of Core Forging last year. Otherwise, wouldn't I be inferior to my Junior Brother?"
Just as Wang Xuanjing's voice fell, Sixth Senior Sister Chen Xuanwei's sour voice sounded, "Fourth Senior Sister, where can I put my face? This is my first time meeting Ninth Junior Brother, but my cultivation is already two levels lower than Ninth Junior Brother's. "
After Lu Ping entered Chong Hua Mansion, Sixth Senior Sister Chen Xuanwei had been in seclusion to break through to the Core Forging Stage. It was only after Lu Ping went missing that she came out of seclusion. She was still at the First Stage of Core Forging Stage, but she had never met Lu Ping before.
However, Lu Ping had obtained an Invisible Sword Art from this Sixth Senior Sister, whom he had never met before. Now, Lu Ping had cultivated it to the Minor Magical Ability Realm, so Lu Ping was still grateful to this Sixth Senior Sister.
"It's my turn, it's my turn!"
Little Junior Sister Jiang Xuanxuan had also advanced to the Core Forging Stage. Seeing that the other Senior Sisters had finished speaking, she hurriedly jumped in front of Lu Ping and stretched out her hand, saying, "Ninth Senior Brother, your cultivation has finally surpassed me, but you didn't attend the celebration banquet when I broke through to the Core Forging Stage, so you still owe me a gift, and you owe me for so long, so you have to give me two."
Tian Ling Laozu smiled and watched the disciples tease each other. The Senior Sisters also smiled and watched the little Junior Sister play with treasures.
Lu Ping didn't care and asked with a smile, "Little Junior Sister, what treasure do you want? You have to say it. If I give you a treasure that I don't like, you can't exchange it with me!"
Jiang Xuanxuan rolled her big eyes and deliberately shouted, "Wow, no wonder Ninth Senior Brother was called the Treasure Boy. You have so many treasures on you that you can choose from!"
Then, she giggled and said in a coy voice, "Senior Martial Brother, I want to learn a flying sword, but Daddy and Mommy both said that the Flowing Cloud Flying Sleeve is the best as a natal artifact. Do you have a flying sword? It must at least be a top-grade artifact."
Lu Ping knew that Little Junior Sister cultivated the wood attribute cultivation method taught by Jiang Tianlin Laozu. He thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I have two wood attribute flying swords, but they are not top-rank magic weapons."
When Lu Ping said this, he saw that Little Junior Sister was a little disappointed. He knew that she really wanted a flying sword, so he said, "But I have two good spiritual materials to refine a wood attribute flying sword."
Sure enough, after hearing what Lu Ping said, Jiang Xuanxuan's big eyes suddenly lit up again.
Lu Ping touched his storage ring and took out two three-inch-thick peach wood branches. He said, "These two peach wood branches should be enough to forge a pair of flying swords. When the time comes, Liu Yun will carry the peach wood swords in her sleeves. At that time, who in the same realm as Junior Martial Sister would be able to defeat her?"
These two peach wood branches were mutated peach wood branches that fell from the Peach Tree Spirit during its thousands of years of growth. Lu Ping had more than ten of these mutated peach wood branches, and these two branches were relatively thick. They were at least two to three thousand years old, and their quality was almost no lower than a third-rank spiritual material.
When the Senior Sisters saw that Lu Ping casually took out two top-grade spiritual materials, they were a little surprised. If these two peach wood branches were polished by an expert and made into a top-grade flying sword, in the future, it would be easy to condense more than four treasures and become a spirit-connected magic treasure. It was even possible to go one step further and become a magic treasure of a higher grade.
Fourth Senior Sister Wang Xuanjing let out a long sigh and deliberately said, "If I knew Ninth Junior Brother had so many treasures, I would've called my good-for-nothing disciples over and asked them to give me some greeting gifts!"
Everyone laughed out loud when they saw how funny she was.
Lu Ping looked around but didn't see Seventh Senior Sister Fan Zihua, so he asked, "Why don't I see Seventh Senior Sister?"
Third Senior Sister Zhao Xuanji, who hadn't spoken until now, said, "Your Seventh Senior Sister is in seclusion to break through to the Core Forging stage. I don't know if she can come out before Teacher's Dharma Idol Assembly."
Sixth Senior Sister Chen Xuanwei frowned and said, "I originally wanted to wait for Seventh Senior Sister to come out of seclusion to help me prepare for Teacher's Dharma Idol Assembly. I'm afraid I'll have to do it alone."
Third Senior Sister Wang Xuanjing glanced at Lu Ping and egged her on, "Sixth Girl, you're stupid. Our Zhenling's rule has always been that the youngest Core Forging disciple will prepare for Teacher's Dharma Idol Assembly. Are you the youngest now?"
Chen Xuanwei's eyes lit up and she clapped her hands. "That's right!"
Chen Xuanwei turned to Lu Ping and said seriously, "Ninth Junior Brother, Teacher's Dharma Idol Assembly depends on you. Junior Sister Xuanxuan doesn't count. Not only are you Teacher's youngest disciple, but you're also the only male disciple.
