Every time a medium sized spirit mine or spirit vein or above was discovered by a cultivator, it would be accompanied by a harvest of natural spirit items and natural oddities. Although spirit items and natural oddities were naturally formed by nature, spirit mines and spirit veins were places where the essence of the world gathered. Naturally, it was easier for these natural treasures to be born.
After the cultivators of the various sects on Frost Island confirmed that the main spirit ore vein at the bottom of the ice cliff was a large spirit ore vein, in addition to the mid-sized spirit ore vein that they had discovered earlier, Spiritual Master Xuan Sen and the other cultivators of the various sects had already realized that there would be quite a number of spirit items and wondrous items that would appear this time. Other than ascertaining the distribution of the spirit ore vein, the other important reason that the various sects had sent their Dharma Adepts here was to deal with the possible appearance of these spirit items and wondrous items.
However, what Daoist Master Xuan Sen and the other late Core Forging cultivators didn't expect was that in just a short three to four days, the cultivators from the various sects were able to easily find three types of Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures and three types of Heaven and Earth Oddities.
Because the sects hadn't come to a compromise on the distribution of these natural treasures, these natural treasures were placed together in a formation that was jointly set up by the formation masters of each sect. They were waiting for Laozu to come and discuss the ownership of these treasures.
Although the formation was stable, more importantly, the formation masters from the other sects would be able to sense it immediately if one of the sects intended to lay their hands on the treasures. As a result, even though the sects coveted the treasures, they were afraid of being attacked by the other sects.
But today, among the three cultivators guarding these treasures, the cultivators of Ocean Flame Sect and Cang Lang Sect had died without a sound. Then, the formation guarding the treasures was triggered, and cultivators from all sects rushed to the scene. All voices of blame were directed at the only survivor, Spiritual Master Zhenling, who didn't know what had happened to him.
Naturally, Zhenling argued for what was right. However, due to the crowd's agitation and Xuan Ling Sect's malicious provocation, the Water Mist Pavilion and Ocean Flame Sect joined forces with Xuan Ling Sect to attack Zhenling's side.
However, Spiritual Master Xuan Sen and the other late stage Core Forging cultivators had already noticed that something was wrong. With Spiritual Master Xuan Xing's cultivation, it was obvious that he couldn't kill two cultivators of the same level from Ocean Flame Sect and Cang Lang Sect without a sound. Therefore, the late stage Core Forging cultivators of each sect didn't participate in the chaotic battle. Instead, they hovered in midair and faced each other.
However, at this moment, Lu Ping, who had hurriedly returned, saw that the cultivators of his sect were being surrounded and were at a disadvantage. Without a second thought, he slashed out with his sword. Because Lu Ping had used all his strength in a moment of desperation, the power of this slash caused many cultivators to turn pale. They were afraid that they wouldn't be able to dodge it in time. However, they didn't expect that dodging would expose the formation guarding the treasures at the bottom of the ice cliff.
The power of Lu Ping's sword was so great that even though the formation was sturdy, it was still broken by Lu Ping's sword. By the time everyone realized that something was wrong, the three natural treasures and three natural oddities were stimulated by the destruction of the formation and flew in different directions.
The ten late stage Core Forging cultivators who were facing each other in the sky immediately chased after the six treasures. Facing the treasures that were right in front of them, the ten Spiritual Masters who were facing each other earlier all made a move to snatch them.
Spiritual Master Xuan Sen was still calm. The moment the treasures broke out of the formation, he hurriedly ordered the late stage Core Forging cultivators of Cang Lang Sect, Jade Sword Sect, and Chong Ming Sect to form groups of two and each snatch one treasure. Although only two out of the six treasures could be snatched, with two late stage Core Forging cultivators working together, the others couldn't compete with them in a short time. They could only watch as Zhenling's group snatched two treasures first.
The six late stage Core Forging cultivators from Xuan Ling Sect, Shui Yan Pavilion, and Hai Yan Sect fought for the remaining four treasures. At first, Lu Xuheng also wanted to act like Spiritual Master Xuan Sen and snatch two treasures first before fighting for the remaining treasures.
But before he could say anything, the late stage Core Forging cultivator of Ling Gu Sect behind him made a move first and snatched one of the treasures from the Shui Yan Pavilion's cultivators. Lu Xuheng was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He could only join in the fight for treasures.
The late stage Core Forging cultivator of Shui Yan Pavilion, Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan, cultivated an ice attribute magic art. On this Frost Island, she was like a fish in water. When the treasures flew out, one of the treasures flew directly towards Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan. Spiritual Master used her faster "Ice Walking Art" to snatch the treasure first. She didn't even have the time to check what the treasure in her hand was before she flew towards another treasure.
At this time, the late stage Core Forging cultivator of Ling Gu Sect had also caught up. Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan smiled disdainfully. On this Frost Island, she had the confidence to defeat any cultivator of the same level.
As expected, the Ling Gu Sect's cultivator was forced to pause by Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan's small sacred art. In a battle between experts, it was this short pause that allowed Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan to leave him far behind.
Just when Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan turned around to collect her second treasure, she saw a golden longsword had already crossed the treasures flying in front of her and slashed towards her head.
Lu Ping also didn't expect that the sword slash just now would cause such a big mess. For a moment, the Core Forging cultivators at the bottom of the cliff all stopped fighting, but the ten late stage Core Forging cultivators in the sky were fighting together for the treasures in the sky.
In reality, Lu Ping's luck was pretty good. Among the six treasures that flew out, one of them was flying towards his direction.
Lu Ping naturally wanted to take this treasure for himself. However, at this time, a female cultivator dressed in Shui Yan Pavilion's attire also chased after this treasure and was about to take it in her hands.
Lu Ping clearly saw that this was a late stage Core Forging cultivator, and just now, she had forced a cultivator of the same level from Ling Gu Sect to retreat with just one move. However, at this time, Lu Ping was also unwilling to let the treasure that was so close to him be snatched away by someone else. It wasn't impossible for Lu Ping to snatch this treasure, but the key was that after he snatched it, he would have to face the pursuit of a late stage Core Forging cultivator. Lu Ping didn't know if he had the strength to fight against a late stage Core Forging cultivator. Not to mention, this female Spiritual Master was able to force a cultivator of the same level from Ling Gu Sect to retreat with just one move. It was clear that her cultivation wasn't ordinary.
In the time it takes for a spark to fly off a flint, countless thoughts flashed through Lu Ping's mind. The Golden Scale Sword in his hand had already passed the flying treasure and stabbed towards the female cultivator from Ling Gu Sect behind him. He who strikes first has the advantage!
Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan didn't expect that this Zhenling cultivator in the middle stage Core Forging cultivator would actually dare to attack her. Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan stretched out her hand and shook it. A layer of gauze and fog wrapped around the Golden Scale Sword that was stabbing towards her.
Lu Ping felt as though the Golden Scale Sword had fallen into a thick layer of silk that couldn't be cut through. Although the Golden Scale Sword cut through layer after layer, the tough silk would wrap around it again at an even faster speed. Every time the Golden Scale Sword pierced through a layer of gauze, its speed would be slowed down and its power would naturally be weakened. Lu Ping's heart went cold. If this continued, wouldn't the Golden Scale Sword be snatched away by the person in front of him? A late stage Core Forging cultivator was indeed powerful. Just a casual attack had such power!
However, at this moment, Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan was even more surprised than Lu Ping. She didn't expect that this Zhenling cultivator in front of her would actually have such tyrannical swordsmanship. This Shuiyan Musha was a spiritual magic treasure that Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan had meticulously refined. It was the best at both offense and defense and was good at snatching other people's magic treasures. She didn't expect that the sword of this Zhenling cultivator in front of her would actually be so powerful. She faintly felt that she wouldn't be able to block it.
How was this possible? The Shuiyan Musha wasn't pierced through, so it could continuously weaken the magic treasures that were attacking it. If it was pierced through, this spiritual magic treasure would become useless.
Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan was finally blocked by Lu Ping's sword. She opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of white mist towards the Shuiyan Musha. The Shuiyan Musha, which was swaying and dancing around the Golden Scale Sword, was suddenly covered with a faint layer of white mist.
Lu Ping took advantage of the moment when Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan was blocked by the Golden Scale Sword to catch the oncoming treasure light in his hand. Only then did he feel a feeling of True Essence being frozen coming from the Golden Scale Sword. When he looked up, he saw that the Shuiyan Musha that was wrapped around the Golden Scale Sword was covered with a thin layer of white mist. An icy cold Qi was being emitted from the white mist. Not only was the True Essence on the Golden Scale Sword frozen, but it also seemed like the Divine Sense that was connected to the Golden Scale Sword was also frozen.
Lu Ping's expression changed slightly. He suddenly stretched out his finger and made a slash in the air. Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan exclaimed in surprise. Her figure flashed and disappeared. A faint blue sword light pierced through the air where she was just standing. Lu Ping took advantage of this opportunity to use the Golden Scale Sword to break free from the Shuiyan Musha.
In the air more than ten feet away from Lu Ping, Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan reappeared. She looked at Lu Ping and said, "You are Zhenling's Lu Xuanping?"
Lu Ping didn't answer. When the Nether Water Sword stabbed forward, he stretched out his hand and pressed it in the air. The seemingly soft Shuiyan Musha suddenly shook violently, as if something was about to break out of it.
Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan's expression changed. She was about to block it, but it was already too late. Although the Golden Scale Sword didn't pierce through the Shuiyan Musha, Lu Ping managed to break free with the support of his vigorous True Essence.
Lu Ping secretly thought that it was a close call. There was a huge gap between a late Core Forging cultivator and a mid Core Forging cultivator. If it was any other cultivator, Lu Ping's Spiritual Flying Sword would have been taken away by Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan.
Lu Ping had just put away the Golden Scale Sword when Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan attacked again. Lu Ping unexpectedly saw a faint trace of excitement on this Spiritual Master's face.
Lu Ping didn't know that his reputation in the North Sea had become so great that people considered him the most outstanding cultivator of the younger generation of Zhenling. He was Zhenling's most likely disciple to reach the Dharma Phase in the future.
In the eyes of the cultivators of the other sects, Lu Ping had become a potential threat to the status of the other sects in the future. They had to get rid of him as soon as possible.
After Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan confirmed that the person in front of him was Lu Ping, he had made up his mind to eliminate Zhenling, the future Dharma Phase Laozu, as a potential threat.
Lu Ping had just fought with Spiritual Master Shui Wuhuan for a short while. He had already realized that his current strength wasn't enough to compete with the senior late Core Forging cultivators of the various sects. So, after obtaining the treasure, he flew towards the area where Zhenling's group was located.
