Although Zhenling was known as a large sect in the North Sea, there were not many water-attribute psychic magic treasures and ordinary magic treasures in this space. Lu Ping waved a strange little flag, causing the mist in the entire space to stir. Immediately, the magic treasures were all wrapped up in the mist river.
The magic treasure that flew directly towards Lu Ping stunned Lu Ping for a moment. Then, he felt a burst of joy. This kind of psychic magic treasure was not something that ordinary psychic magic treasures could achieve.
Lu Ping looked at the small triangular flag in front of him. The flag looked a little dim, and one corner was even a little damaged. However, when Lu Ping tried to input some Quintessential Qi into the flag, the entire flag suddenly lit up. The fluttering flag immediately brought a burst of life.
But then, Lu Ping smiled bitterly. When Lu Ping injected Quintessential Qi into the flag, he found that the flag had condensed six Quintessential Talismans. In other words, it had reached the peak of psychic magic treasures. Moreover, the quality of this flag was extremely high. It was not even inferior to Lu Ping's personal magic treasure, the Genchen Pearl.
With Lu Ping's current Quintessential Qi, if he used all his strength to control a psychic magic treasure with six Quintessential Talismans, it would be enough. However, how much Quintessential Qi would be left to maintain the magic treasure and control other magic treasures? Moreover, the broken corner of the flag would require even more Quintessential Qi from Lu Ping.
Fortunately, the defensive power of this magic treasure was absolutely great. Under the control of Lu Ping's Quintessential Qi, the small flag floated above his head. The flag unfurled, and a purple curtain of light hung down to protect Lu Ping. Its defensive power could be said to be the strongest among all the defensive magic treasures Lu Ping had ever seen!
Lu Ping's expression was somewhat conflicted. Although he had come to the Refining Hall in search of a magic treasure, Lu Ping had taken too many in the end. However, a magic treasure like this made it difficult for Lu Ping. If he chose it, it would be difficult for Lu Ping to use it in a short period of time.
Forget it, with my cultivation, I'm not far from breaking through to the Mid Core Forging Stage. When that time comes, maybe it won't be so difficult to use this magic weapon.
In the end, Lu Ping was still somewhat reluctant to part with this psychic magic treasure with the Six Daos Talismans. Not to mention, the fact that this magic treasure had automatically flown towards Lu Ping made Lu Ping feel that this small flag was not as simple as it seemed.
Lu Ping walked out from the Artefact Forging Hall's legacy space and saw Sage Enigma Flame looking at Lu Ping with a puzzled expression.
Lu Ping knew that his actions in the space could not be hidden from the Deputy Hall Master of the Equipment Refinement Hall.
As expected, when Sage Enigma Flame saw Lu Ping walk out, he said, "I didn't think that the Water Controlling Flag would choose you!"
Hearing that, Lu Ping was somewhat surprised. He said, "Martial uncle, you mean to say that the Water Controlling Flag chooses its own master? Isn't that a magic treasure with the Seven Daos Talismans, reaching the Spirit Nurturing stage? Could it be? "
When Lu Ping considered that line of thought, his eyes lit up. Sage Enigma Flame nodded. Next, he shook his head and said, "This magic treasure was once a Spirit Nurturing magic treasure. However, it was badly damaged and fell to the ranks of the peak-level psychic magic treasures."
Lu Ping looked at the small flag in his hand. The corner of the small flag had been damaged. Then, Sage Enigma Flame continued, "This magic treasure has a rather long history in our sect. It can be traced back to the time when Fei Ling Sect was destroyed."
Hearing the words' Fei Ling Sect ', Lu Ping's expression turned serious. Over 4,000 years ago, this sect was the number one sect in the North Sea. Lu Ping had received quite a bit of its legacy.
"Have you heard of Zhong Xuan Laozu?" Sage Enigma Flame did not directly explain the origins of the Water Controlling Flag. Instead, he asked Lu Ping about it.
"Zhong Xuan Laozu?" Lu Ping was shocked once more. He asked, "Back then, he was the number one Grandmaster Artefact Forging Master in the North Sea. Could this magic treasure have come from Zhong Xuan Laozu?"
"You know quite a bit." However, Sage Enigma Flame immediately shook his head and said, "This magic treasure is not Zhong Xuan Laozu's handiwork. Rather, it came from his personal disciple, the number one genius of Fei Ling Sect back then. He had reached the Grandmaster Artefact Forging Master at the late Core Forging Stage, the number one cultivator beneath the Dharma Characteristic stage, Jiao Yuqiang!"
When Lu Ping heard the name 'Jiao Yuqiang', he became dumbfounded. Instantly, Lu Ping recalled the words he had seen on the wall of a secret chamber in Fei Ling Island's Artefact Forging Hall. The name 'Jiao Yuqiang' was written on it. Additionally, the Fei Ling Sect cultivator who was hiding inside the secret chamber had clearly set Jiao Yuqiang as his goal to surpass.
Now, Chen Xiaolian finally realized that this cultivator from over 4,000 years ago could have such accomplishments. Moreover, even after 4,000 years, he had yet to be forgotten by the world of cultivation.
Seeing the stunned expression on Lu Ping's face, Sage Enigma Flame assumed that Lu Ping had never heard of this name before. However, this name clearly held great significance for Sage Enigma Flame. Sage Enigma Flame said, "This' Water Controlling Flag 'is his first work after becoming a Grandmaster Artefact Forging Master. It is also his most cherished Spirit Nurturing Magic Treasure. Back then, during the extermination of Fei Ling Sect, Jiao Yuqiang killed off five late Core Forging Stage experts from the various sects. He also relied on this Water Controlling Flag to take on the attack from a Dharma Characteristic stage cultivator, Laozu. In the end, he killed the Dharma Characteristic stage cultivator. The cultivators from the various sects besieging Fei Ling Sect were greatly shocked. In the end, they had no choice but to throw away their pride. Two Dharma Characteristic stage cultivators, Laozu, rushed forward to besiege Jiao Yuqiang. By then, Jiao Yuqiang's primary energy had long since been depleted due to the continuous battles. However, before he fell, he managed to seriously wound one of the Laozu cultivators.
Even so, the two Laozu cultivators managed to seriously injure one of the Laozu cultivators. However, that was not what Sage Enigma Flame was concerned about. Thus, he asked, "Martial Uncle, can this Water Controlling Flag be repaired?"
The moment Lu Ping asked that question, he knew that it was a foolish question. As expected, Sage Enigma Flame glared at him and said, "If it can be repaired, how could it have remained in the legacy space for 4,000 years?"
Lu Ping retreated in embarrassment. However, he was puzzled. The Water Controlling Flag was just a spirit-connected magic treasure. In the eyes of ordinary master craftsmen, it might be an extremely brilliant item. However, in the past 4,000 years, there had been several master craftsmen who had appeared in Zhenling. According to Lu Ping's knowledge, the current Master of the Armorer Hall, Laozu, Sage Tianbao, was the only master craftsmen in the sect. Could it be that even these masters could not repair it?
Sage Enigma Flame seemed to have read Lu Ping's mind. He explained, "The Water Controlling Flag was forged by Jiao Yuqiang using his own crafting method. Even his master, Zhongxuan Laozu, admitted that he was no match for this crafting method. He said that as long as Jiao Yuqiang advanced to the Dharma Manifestation stage, Zhongxuan Laozu would hand over the title of the top master craftsmen in the North Sea!"
Hearing that, Lu Ping was somewhat disappointed. However, Enigma Flame Laozu continued, "Legend has it that Jiao Yuqiang's crafting method, in addition to inheriting Zhongxuan Laozu's legacy, was also inspired by the Protective Array left behind by the previous True Spirit Laozu of Zhenling Sect. Thus, he created his own unique crafting method. After Zhenling Sect was destroyed, the other sects naturally would not let go of Jiao Yuqiang's legacy. However, they found nothing. Later, the master craftsmen of the North Sea turned their attention to the Protective Array of Zhenling Sect, hoping to learn something from it. However, the Protective Array was the work of the previous True Spirit Laozu of Zhenling Sect. Even Dharma Manifestation Laozu could not do anything about it. According to the rumors, Jiao Yuqiang might have the blueprint of the Protective Array of Zhenling Sect. However, this is only a rumor. No one has ever obtained the blueprint of the Protective Array of Zhenling Sect."
Lu Ping's face was filled with fascination. His right hand unconsciously touched the storage ring on his left hand.
Out of the Refining Hall, Lu Ping had regained his calm expression. Obviously, the matters of Zhenling Sect were not something that he could come into contact with now. All he could do was to collect some secrets of Zhenling Sect. Some things involved too much. Before he had enough strength, it was better not to reveal them.
Just like the Refining Hall, the Alchemy Pavilion was built with earth fire drawn from the ground. However, it was different from the explosive aura emitted by the entire mountain peak of the Refining Hall. Although the Alchemy Pavilion also emitted a scorching aura, this aura was less explosive than the Refining Hall. It was more restrained.
Unlike the Refining Hall, the Alchemy Pavilion had an endless stream of people coming and going. Many of them were ordinary cultivators of Zhenling. Obviously, they were here to ask for pills. They either refined pills or exchanged for pills. The Alchemy Pavilion could be said to be an important pillar of wealth for Zhenling.
Seeing Lu Ping walking over, many Blood Condensation Realm cultivators initially didn't think much of him. They thought that he was just an ordinary disciple who came to ask for pills. However, when they got closer, they felt that Lu Ping had an unfathomable aura and immediately made way for him.
Lu Ping calmly walked towards the Alchemy Pavilion. From time to time, there were Core Forging Realm cultivators entering and exiting the Alchemy Pavilion. Some of them recognized Lu Ping and knew that he was a newly promoted Alchemy Grandmaster of their sect. They all nodded to show their goodwill. Some of the older Core Forging Realm Enlightened Masters looked at Lu Ping with a strange expression. However, when someone asked them about it, they kept their mouths shut, unwilling to say anything.
When Lu Ping entered the main hall of the Alchemy Pavilion, he saw a familiar face greeting cultivator.
The cultivator in the main hall was also surprised to see Lu Ping. This person was the Pill Testing Enlightened Master who met Lu Ping when he came to the Alchemy Pavilion to obtain the qualifications to become a Pill Refining Master.
This Pill Testing Enlightened Master didn't greet Lu Ping immediately. Instead, he pondered for a moment, then walked forward with a smile. "So it's Grandmaster Lu Xuanping. May I know what brings you here today?"
Lu Ping saw that the Pill Testing Enlightened Master didn't greet Lu Ping as a Zhenling, but Lu Ping didn't mind. He flashed the black iron token in his hand and said bluntly, "On orders from the sect, I'm going to the Alchemy Pavilion's inheritance ground."
When the Pill Testing Enlightened Master saw the token in Lu Ping's hand, he couldn't help but be surprised. Then, his expression turned serious. He turned sideways and said, "Follow me!"
Outside a secret room in the back hall, the Pill Testing Enlightened Master carefully knocked on the stone door. Standing outside the door, Lu Ping could feel that there was a huge layer of heat behind the door. Clearly, someone was concocting pills in the secret room. Moreover, Lu Ping's spiritual sense could sense that this heat contained an unusual aura. The person inside the secret room must be using a type of Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire.
The stone door opened inwards, and a wave of heat rushed out. If it was an ordinary mortal, just this wave of heat would be enough to turn them into ashes. Even an ordinary Blood Condensation cultivator would be in a difficult position under the sudden attack of this heat wave.
Lu Ping frowned but didn't say anything. Before the heatwave reached him, it suddenly turned into a cool breeze that spread out, causing the atmosphere in the Alchemy Pavilion's rear hall to change.
A middle-aged cultivator with a serious expression walked out. Ignoring Lu Ping, he said with some anger, "Junior Brother Xuan Dian, didn't you say that I would be concocting a batch of pills in the next two days and not to disturb me? If there's anything, you can make the decision yourself."
Enlightened Master Xuan Dian was obviously the title of Enlightened Master Pill Testing Enlightened Master. He smiled helplessly and said, "This is Master Lu Xuanping. He has a Black Iron Token in his hand and wants to enter the Land of Inheritance, so he can only find you. Could it be that I have to disturb Master for this matter?"
"Master Lu?" Enlightened Master Xuan Yan snorted coldly, causing the atmosphere in the back hall to heat up even more. His expression was filled with disdain towards Lu Ping's status as a Grandmaster Pill Refining Master. He said, "Kid, I am currently concocting an extremely important pill. Come back next time."
Finished speaking, he turned around to return to the secret room.
"Black Cloud Pill?"
Lu Ping's mocking voice suddenly came from behind him, causing Enlightened Master Xuan Yan to stop in his tracks.
"If even a Black Cloud Pill, which can barely reach the mid Core Forging stage, is considered extremely important, then Zhenling's reputation as an Alchemy Grandmaster is really undeserved."
Enlightened Master Xuan Yan fiercely turned his head, only to see that Lu Ping had completely ignored his Late Core Forging stage Spiritual Sense. Lu Ping's face was calm and indifferent, but this was the greatest mockery towards him.
Lu Ping saw that Enlightened Master Xuan Yan's face was gloomy, so he stretched out his hand and showed the Black Iron Token in front of Enlightened Master Xuan Yan. "It seems that Grandmaster Xuan Yan is not in a hurry to concoct pills. You should leave now. At least let this junior know whether or not Zhenling's orders are unimpeded in the Alchemy Pavilion!"
Lu Ping's big hat pressed down on him, causing Enlightened Master Xuan Yan's face to become gloomy. He waved his hand and walked towards an underground secret room in the back hall, not even closing the stone door behind him.
As Enlightened Master Xuan Yan waved his hand, a muffled sound suddenly came from the previous Alchemy room. Then, a burnt and fragrant smell accompanied by a burst of rich spiritual energy rushed out from the secret room.
Enlightened Master Xuan Yan walked in front of Lu Ping without turning his head. Lu Ping sneered and immediately followed. Only Enlightened Master Xuan Dian hesitated as he looked towards the secret room. His mouth twitched and his face showed a pained expression.
When Lu Ping entered the underground secret room, he paused for a moment. Then, he glanced to his left without anyone noticing and continued to walk towards the secret room.
Enlightened Master Xuan Yan stood in the middle of the secret room. When he saw Lu Ping, his face immediately darkened. "Little brat, I'm sure you know that the people from Chong Hua Manor and Carefree Manor are not welcomed in the Alchemy Pavilion. Don't say that I'm making things difficult for you. This time, the Inheritance Grounds will only be open for three days. What good fortune you can obtain will depend on you. If you don't obtain anything in three days, then don't blame my Alchemy Pavilion for playing tricks on you."
Lu Ping turned a deaf ear to Enlightened Master Xuan Yan's words and directly activated the Mysterious Iron Token with the word "Pill" engraved on it. Immediately, a door appeared in the middle of the secret room. Lu Ping lifted his foot and was about to enter when he suddenly stopped in mid-air. Turning his head towards Enlightened Master Xuan Yan, he sneered, "The people from Chong Hua Manor and Carefree Manor are not welcomed by the Alchemy Pavilion? Since when did the Zhenling's Alchemy Pavilion belong to Fornax Laozu? Was it Fornax Laozu himself who said so? "
Enlightened Master Xuan Yan's expression changed. Even Enlightened Master Xuan Dian's face darkened. Lu Ping had already entered the Inheritance Grounds and disappeared, leaving only Lu Ping's cold laughter echoing in the secret room.
