Although they were protected by Huang Li Island's protective formation, after Hu Lili returned, she set up another protective formation around the two of them. As the Spirit Gathering Pearls buried in the two spirit veins slowly extended out a third spirit vein, the protective formation and guiding formation could no longer restrain the increasingly dense spiritual energy in the cave. Dense spiritual energy began to drift out from Lu Ping's cave, attracting many cultivators from the sect to set up their own cave abodes near the small hill where Lu Ping's cave abode was located. However, if cultivators other than Zhenling wanted to set up a cave abode on Huang Li Island, they would have to get Lu Ping's permission first.
After Hu Lili finished setting up the protective formation, almost all of the dispersed spiritual energy was trapped inside the cave abode. However, Lu Ping told her to release some of the spiritual energy outside. In any case, the three spirit veins were enough for Lu Ping and Hu Lili to cultivate without the island's protective formation being fully activated.
After the small Huang Li Island was nurtured by the three spirit veins, in just over a year's time, there were many places where spiritual energy gathered on the island. Lu Ping also asked for a group of Blood Refining Realm disciples from the sect to train on Huang Li Island.
In the past, Lu Ping had managed to find seven places where spiritual energy gathered on Huang Li Island, and Lu Ping was able to manage all of them by himself. However, after a year of nurturing by the three spirit veins, Dabao had found seventeen places where spiritual energy gathered on the island. As time went on, the number of places where spiritual energy gathered on the island would continue to increase. Furthermore, not all of these places were barren and could only be used to plant spiritual grains. There were a few places near Lu Ping's cave abode that could be turned into spiritual herb gardens or used to plant spiritual materials.
In the Zhen Ling Side Courtyard.
Wang Qi was severely injured because he forced himself to observe the Water Sword Fairy, Reverend Lu Xuanping's swordsmanship. At the same time, six other Blood Refining Realm disciples were also injured. They were the first seven Blood Refining Realm disciples to observe Reverend Lu Xuanping's swordsmanship.
After Wang Qi woke up from his injuries, the leader of Group 7 handed him a bottle of pills with a hint of curiosity and envy. He told Wang Qi that these pills were all concocted by Perfected Master Lu Xuanping, an alchemist.
Unexpectedly, Wang Qi had a look of amazement on his face. Perfected Lu Xuanping was not only skilled in swordsmanship, but he was also a master of alchemy!
With this bottle of pills, Wang Qi's injuries healed very quickly. At the same time, Wang Qi also discovered that after this injury, his cultivation did not decrease. Instead, it increased and his foundation became more solid. Wang Qi quickly thought of the bottle of pills that Enlightened Being Lu Xuanping had given him.
That's right, that must be it!
After Wang Qi's injuries healed, he focused all his energy on practicing his swordsmanship. He quickly became engrossed in it and successfully comprehended the realm of "technique" in a short period of time.
After the Courtyard Competition, Wang Qi's companions, who had been promoted to a third level disciple, were all sent out by the side courtyard to train. For some reason, Wang Qi was not assigned to train. The other six Blood Refining Realm cultivators who were watching Lu Ping practice were also not assigned to train.
Although Wang Qi did not know why, he was in a state of obsession with swordsmanship. He was happy to stay in the side courtyard and reminisce about Lu Ping's swordsmanship from day to night. At the same time, he was also honing his own swordsmanship.
As Wang Qi focused on swordsmanship for the past year, although his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, he found that his understanding of the swordsmanship that Lu Ping had practiced that day was becoming increasingly shallow. Wang Qi felt like he was immersed in the sea. The more he understood about the sea, the more he found it to be unfathomable.
This Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping had only started cultivating twenty years earlier than him, but his swordsmanship had already reached a realm that Wang Qi could not even look up to.
After more than a year, Wang Qi's cultivation quickly broke through to the ninth level of the Blood Refining Realm. One day, after Wang Qi finished his swordsmanship practice, he was called over by the immortal in charge of his group. The immortal asked, "Our sect's Huang Li Island in the outer seas is recruiting a group of disciples to manage the spiritual energy gathering area on the island. The sect has decided to treat this recruitment as a training. Are you willing to participate? However, I have to make it clear that Huang Li Island is currently the most dangerous island in the outer seas. It is isolated in the outer seas and can be attacked by demonic beasts at any time. It can also be breached at any time. "
In fact, when Wang Qi heard about Huang Li Island, he was already more than willing to participate. Nowadays, everyone in Zhenling knew about Huang Li Island and that the Enlightened Master guarding the island was the famous "Water Sword Immortal", Lu Xuanping!
More than a year ago, Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping gathered a group of the most outstanding disciples who had just advanced to the Core Forging Realm and conquered Huang Li Island in one fell swoop. Then, under the counterattack of several mid and early stage Core Forging Realm demonic cultivators, they managed to hold on until the island's protective array was activated. Since then, Zhenling's prestige in the North Sea had risen once again. Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping was now the flag bearer of the new generation of Core Forging cultivators in Zhenling.
The immortal in charge of Group 7 saw Wang Qi standing there in a daze and asked unhappily, "What's wrong? Don't you want to go?"
Wang Qi hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course I'm willing. It's just that when I heard that I can go to Huang Li Island that Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping is guarding, I was overjoyed and lost my composure. Please forgive me. At the same time, I thank you for giving this opportunity to me. "
"That's for the best." The immortal smiled in satisfaction, but then he said with a sense of loss, "Cultivate well when you get to Huang Li Island. If you have the opportunity to receive pointers from Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping, you might be able to soar to the sky. At that time, I might even need your care."
Wang Qi repeatedly said that he wouldn't dare to do so. In his heart, he thought of a rumor. It was said that the immortals in charge of the Mid and Late Blood Condensation cultivators were disciples of the same generation as Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping. Some of them were even as famous as Enlightened Master Lu Xuanping, and some were even more outstanding than him.
However, in the past twenty to thirty years, the gap between them had grown wider and wider. Even the previously unknown Elder Immortal Zhang Zicheng had reached the peak of the Blood Condensation Realm and was only a step away from breaking through to the Core Forging Realm. On the other hand, those powerful cultivators in the courtyard were now just ordinary Blood Condensation Elder Immortals.
Looking at the immortal master's disappointed expression, Wang Qi's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Immortal Master was also …
Looking at the six people gathered in front of the teleportation array to Huang Li Island, not only Wang Qi, but the other six people also looked at each other. The seven Blood Refining Realm disciples who were going to Huang Li Island to train were actually the seven disciples who went to observe Lu Ping's sword practice.
This was obviously a deliberate arrangement by the True Spirit Side Hall.
When the seven people arrived at Huang Li Island and were brought to Hu Lili by Fang Tao, Hu Lili was also a little surprised. That day, when Hu Lili delivered Lu Ping's pills to Enlightened Master Xuanyuan, she had also seen these seven unconscious Blood Refining Realm disciples.
However, Hu Lili had always been a meticulous person. Without batting an eyelid, she quietly gave 14 of the 17 spirit gathering places to the seven people. After sending the seven people away, she told Lu Ping about the matter.
"Looks like this is Uncle-Master Xuanyuan's arrangement!"
On the other hand, Lu Ping seemed indifferent, as if he didn't take these things to heart.
"Then what does Uncle-Master Xuanyuan mean by this? He clearly knows that you don't intend to accept disciples, but he still sent these seven disciples to Huang Li Island? If you don't handle this well, won't you be disrespecting Uncle-Master Xuanyuan? Although Uncle-Master Xuanyuan has no hope of advancing to the Mid Core Forging Realm, he is still a cultivator of the same generation as you and my master. These years, you have been too domineering in the sect, so it's inevitable that some people will be jealous and whisper behind your back. If you don't handle this well, you will leave an impression of arrogance and disrespect in the eyes of the seniors. "
Lu Ping smiled. "You're just too suspicious. Perhaps Uncle-Master Xuanyuan just doesn't want these disciples to lose the opportunity to advance further. After all, they were able to withstand my sword technique. Whether it's their talent or willpower, they can be considered good. Uncle-Master Xuanyuan is teaching them in accordance with their aptitude."
When Hu Lili heard Lu Ping's words, she also felt that she was being too sensitive. She smiled and said, "Then what do you plan to do? Are you really going to help them?"
Lu Ping shook his sleeves and the lid of the Linchuan Cauldron flew up. Water mist rose from the cauldron and condensed into a sky-blue spirit water. It was the low-grade Earth-ranked Cang Lan Water.
Then, another spirit pill the size of a longan flew out from the cauldron. Lu Ping's face lit up with joy. He put the spirit pill into a jade bottle and handed it to Hu Lili. "This is the 'Spirit Water Nourishing Spirit Pill' that I created myself. After taking it, the foundation of your divine sense that was damaged from setting up the formation will be completely healed."
Hu Lili took the spirit pill and listened to Lu Ping continue, "As for those disciples, let them be. The sect's rule is that the disciple must be at the mid-stage of the Blood Condensation Realm. A few years should be enough for us to get to know them better. If they can really endure the loneliness, then what's the harm in helping them?"
Seeing that Lu Ping already had a plan, Hu Lili no longer pestered him. She changed the topic and asked, "You've been refining pills all this time. Are you going to go out for a long time or go into closed-door cultivation again?"
Lu Ping already knew that Hu Lili would guess it, so he smiled and said, "I can't hide anything from you. In fact, before attacking Huang Li Island, I already knew the opportunity to advance to the mid-stage of the Core Forging Realm. It's just that because of many complicated things, I didn't have the time. Now that Huang Li Island has you and Zheng Jie as a helper, everything is in order, I called Chen Lian over from Martial Uncle Qu Xuancheng and asked Xiao Qin to stay by your side. At the same time, I also notified Yao Yong and Ji Zixuan. If there is an attack from the Monster Race, they will rush over immediately. This way, there's no need to worry about the safety of Huang Li Island. This way, I can also go into closed-door cultivation with peace of mind. At most, I will advance to the mid-stage of the Core Forging Realm in three to five years. "
Hu Lili's face lit up. "Then go into closed-door cultivation as soon as possible. I will take care of the island, you don't have to worry."
