On Huang Li Island, Hu Lili instructed Chen Lian and Zheng Jie on some simple matters on the island, then said, "This time, I'll be bringing the Amethyst Bees to a spirit garden on Tian Ling Mountain. This time, it'll take at least two to three months, and at most half a year to return. Right now, this island has Ancestor Tian Ling overseeing it, so there won't be any danger. It's just that I'll have to trouble you two with some daily chores."
Zheng Jie said casually, "Senior Apprentice Sister, don't worry. Ever since the battle on Huang Li Island, the island's defenses have become much tighter. The cultivators who come and go are also much more disciplined. Now that Tian Lin Laozu is on the island, who would dare to cause trouble? However, Senior Apprentice Sister, you still have to be careful of Xuan Ying and the others. Last time, they tried to kill Lu Qin-er on Tian Ling Mountain. It's obvious that they were after you and Little Lu. Why didn't Little Lu kill them then? "
Hu Lili shook her head helplessly. "It's better to be safe than sorry. Junior Apprentice Sister, you also have to focus on your cultivation. I heard that Zhang Zicheng also succeeded in condensing his core two months ago. Among us, you're the only one who hasn't advanced to the Core Forging Realm yet. As for Eldest Senior Apprentice Sister and the others, they're still not powerful enough. The real threat is the people behind Xuan Ying and the others. "
Zheng Jie's face fell when she heard Hu Lili talk about cultivation. Seeing this, Hu Lili passed a Jade Crystal Bottle to her and said, "This is a Seven Step Marked Pill that Lu Ping left behind before he left. He asked me to give it to you. Previously, your foundation was still lacking. Although you've reached the peak of the Blood Condensation Realm for many years, you haven't made any progress. I didn't give this pill to you because I wanted you to strengthen your foundation. That way, you'll be able to go further in the future."
When Zheng Jie saw the Seven Step Marked Pill, her face was already filled with joy. She hurriedly snatched the Jade Crystal Bottle from Hu Lili's hands. Hu Lili saw that Zheng Jie was only happy. She didn't know how much of what she said had sunk in, so she let her be.
Before Hu Lili left, she went to the secret room that Lu Ping usually used for cultivation. After she came out, she sealed the secret room again. Other than Lu Ping and Hu Lili, no one else came here.
In a cave abode on Tian Ling Mountain, four Core Forging Stage Enlightened Masters sat on the ground. If Lu Ping was here, he would recognize three of them as Enlightened Master Xuanchang, Enlightened Master Xuanhe, and Enlightened Master Xuanqing.
Daoist Master Xuanchang hesitated for a moment and said to the cultivator sitting at the head of the table, "Senior Martial Brother Xuan Shu, what happened on Huang Li Island was beyond our expectations. This Junior Martial Nephew Lu Xuanping is clearly hiding his strength. Such a talent may be a pillar of our sect like Senior Martial Brother Jiang Tianlin in the future. After all, the rise of our sect is imminent, and it's also the crucial period of the war between the human and demon races. It's precisely the time when we need to unite our forces. If we were to make a move and plot against them, it would more or less be something that would make our friends hate us and our enemies happy. "
A resolute middle-aged cultivator sitting at the head of the table nodded and said, "This is indeed beyond our expectations. Originally, we thought that with the importance of Huang Li Island, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to send a late Core Forging cultivator. Senior Martial Sister Liu is also famous for being protective of her disciples. Sending an early Core Forging disciple to guard Huang Li Island is simply child's play. I didn't expect that this Junior Martial Nephew Lu Xuanping would have such strength. Now that Senior Martial Brother Tianlin is personally guarding Huang Li Island, there is no need for us to worry. Junior Martial Brother Xuanchang is right. If our sect wants to rise to the north sea, the demon race is unwilling, and the sects in the north sea are also unwilling. Therefore, our sect must not have any internal strife. "
When Enlightened Master Xuanchang and the others saw that Enlightened Master Xuanshu had the same thoughts, their faces lit up with joy. "Senior Martial Brother is farsighted!"
In a cave abode on Tian Ling Mountain, Enlightened Master Xuanchen's eldest disciple, Enlightened Master Xuanying, had been living a difficult life for the past six months. Now that she thought about it, she finally understood that she had fallen into someone else's trap.
How could she have been incited by a Blood Condensation cultivator, Minor Repairs, to plot against the demon pet of the "Water Sword Immortal"? Not to mention that the demon pet was following Enlightened Master Jiang Xuanxuan. How many Core Forging cultivators on Tian Ling Mountain didn't know about Jiang Xuanxuan?
Not long after, that Blood Condensation cultivator, Minor Repairs, was sent to guard an island. Soon after, he died in an attack by the demon race.
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying recalled the chaotic battle in the inheritance ground, the way that person suppressed everyone, and the murderous look he gave her at that time. For the past six months, Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's heart often palpitated for no reason.
One day, Enlightened Master Xuan Ying received an invitation from the Li Family, one of Zhenling's subordinate clans. They asked her to reconstruct the island's protective formation on Flying Thunder Island.
She knew about this Li Family. Years ago, when Lu Xuanping returned to the north sea, he used the Li Family's patriarch, Li Xuanliang, as a stepping stone to establish his dominance in Zhenling. Three years ago, a small spirit vein that the Li Family had accumulated was inexplicably implanted with a large formation. Subsequently, the spirit vein was activated and stolen, becoming a laughing stock in the north sea's cultivation world.
Without the spirit vein, the protective formation on Flying Thunder Island was naturally destroyed. For the past few years, the Li Family had always claimed that the person who stole their spirit vein was the "Water Sword Immortal", Lu Xuanping. However, even if they had evidence, who would dare to offend the direct disciple of Fa Xiang, Laozu!
Moreover, this direct disciple was a malefic star that should not be trifled with. Which early Core Forging cultivator would dare to lead a group of fellow disciples into the demon race's hinterland to expand their territory? Even if you had the courage, where did you get the strength? But this person dared to do it, and he succeeded!
During the battle on Huang Li Island, the "Water Sword Immortal", who had advanced to the mid Core Forging stage, became even more arrogant. It was said that he had killed more than seven or eight Metamorphosis stage demon cultivators. Who would dare to look down on the achievements of such a person?
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying pondered. Since the Li Family had a grudge against that person, whether she was willing or not, she had also become enemies with that person. In that case, she could only befriend the Li Family so that they could jointly resist the threat of that person in the future.
After thinking it through, Enlightened Master Xuan Ying immediately left her cave abode and flew out of Tian Ling Mountain. However, she did not notice that in a spirit garden outside her cave abode, a few purple bees were buzzing and flying around a few blooming spirit herbs. After Enlightened Master Xuan Ying left, the largest purple bee flapped its wings and flew away with a few small bees.
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying flew in the air and was thinking about how to reveal her thoughts to Enlightened Master Li Xuanliang when she went to Flying Thunder Island. However, when she released her divine telekinesis, her expression suddenly changed and she shouted, "Who is it, come out!"
"Haha, aunty, you are so fierce!"
An eight or nine year old little girl in white suddenly appeared in front of her, giggling crisply. Her face was full of baby fat, and it was indescribably adorable!
However, Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's expression changed drastically when she released her divine telekinesis. She looked at the eight or nine year old little girl in front of her and exclaimed, "Shapeshifted Demonic Cultivator!"
The little girl looked at the vigilant Enlightened Master Xuan Ying and pouted. "Ling 'er doesn't like you, it's not fun!"
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying saw that the other party was only a First Stage Core Forging Realm cultivator and felt slightly relieved. She shouted sternly, "Bold Demonic Cultivator, how dare you go deep into Zhenling's Internal Sea. Are you courting death?"
The little girl made a face at Enlightened Master Xuan Ying, looked behind her and asked, "Elder Sister, what should we do?"
"This Demonic Cultivator has an accomplice!"
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's expression changed drastically. Then, she heard a crisp child's voice coming from behind her. "Aunty Hu said that this person wants to kill Elder Sister Qin 'er. Let's kill her too!"
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying suddenly turned around and saw a little girl in green standing behind her. She looked to be about the same age as the little girl in white, but her tone was more mature, like a little adult.
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying suddenly thought of something and said with a horrified expression, "You, you were sent by that bitch Hu Lili? She actually dared to collude with the Demonic Race and murder her Senior Sister. How dare she! "
Suddenly, two streams of water rolled up from the surface of the ocean, wrapping around Reverend Xuan Ying's feet. A little boy in blue clothes, about eight or nine years of age, suddenly jumped out from the water, pointed at Reverend Xuan Ying and said in a clear voice, "Don't talk nonsense, you are the bad guy!"
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying didn't expect that there would be a third Demonic Cultivator hiding in the sea. A ray of light flashed under her feet and broke the entangling water column. A green array disc appeared under her feet and a green light rose from the array disc, surrounding her in the center. A talisman in her hand suddenly emitted a large amount of smoke and fire, rushing towards the sky above her. Following which, a loud explosion spread far and wide, and at the same time, there were sparks flying everywhere. This was the warning talisman of Zhenling.
The three children didn't seem to know how to make the first move. Seeing that Enlightened Master Xuan Ying was done, they didn't try to stop her. When Enlightened Master Xuan Ying released the talisman, they heaved a sigh of relief. The three children looked at each other and then the little girl in green laughed. She opened her mouth and spat out a breath. Enlightened Master Xuan Ying suddenly felt a tearing force coming from the green light barrier in front of her. "Creak! Creak! Creak!" An ear-piercing sound was heard and the green light barrier began to flicker rapidly, as if it would collapse at any time.
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying panicked. She didn't expect that the little girl in front of her, who had the same cultivation as her, would attack so fiercely. However, before she could understand what was happening, the little boy in blue reached out and pulled out a spear made of seawater. He raised the spear and stabbed it towards Enlightened Master Xuan Ying. The green light barrier was immediately dented by the tip of the spear and cracks appeared on the green light barrier.
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's face was filled with fear. Her hands formed a series of hand seals. She also tried to attack the three Demonic Cultivators to alleviate her predicament. However, Enlightened Master Xuan Ying cultivated in arrays and her strength wasn't at the level of a cultivator. Not only were the three Demonic Cultivators attacking fiercely, their attacks were also very closely linked, causing Enlightened Master Xuan Ying to be unable to fight back.
Following closely behind the little boy in blue was the little girl in white. As if she was angry, the little girl stamped her feet and suddenly, several thick ice spikes shot out from the seawater.
Enlightened Master Xuan Ying felt the ground beneath her feet shake and a few cracks appeared on her Fate Array Disc. Enlightened Master Xuan Ying felt a sweet taste in her mouth as she coughed out a mouthful of blood.
The little girl in white clapped her hands and said with a smile, "She can't take it anymore!"
The little boy in blue chuckled and another ball of seawater rose from beneath his feet. The seawater formed a long spear in front of him. The little girl in white giggled and stretched out her little hand. The long spear instantly froze and turned into an ice spear.
The little boy thrust the spear forward. The little girl in green opened her mouth and blew, causing the ice spear to suddenly accelerate. Under Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's horrified gaze, the ice spear broke through the protective array barrier and pierced through Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's heart core space.
The little girl in white skipped forward and took the storage artifact from Enlightened Master Xuan Ying's waist. The three children jumped into the seawater together. There were only a few waves on the surface of the sea before everything returned to normal. Only a few childish voices were left in the sky, echoing:
"It's just a spell. It's not fun. Wait for Father to come back and make a Transcendent Artifact for me!"
"I want a spear, just like the one just now. I want to ride on a seahorse and be as mighty as a general!"
"I want the Golden Snake Sword. I want to learn sword techniques from Father!"
"Ling 'er wants a dagger. Ling' er's teeth are the best!"
Heaven Spirit Mountain, at the bottom of the cliff where Lu Ping's Listen Wave was located, Hu Lili was walking on the rolling waves. After a while, she returned to Heaven Spirit Mountain and continued to command the Purple Crystal Wasps to collect the blossoming spirit herbs in the spirit gardens.
Other than the few involved, even the cultivators of Heaven Spirit Mountain had always thought that these purple demonic wasps were the famous Purple Crystal Demonic Wasps raised by Fornax Laozu. Therefore, no one in the spirit gardens on Heaven Spirit Mountain dared to make things difficult for them. When they saw these huge purple demonic wasps, they opened up their own spirit gardens.
Lu Ping stayed on Frost Island for nearly a year. The matters on Frost Island were basically completed. The general survey of Frost Island was also nearing completion. Now, Frost Island had his teacher, Mystic Flame, and Xuan Sen, two late stage Core Forging experts. Naturally, it was impregnable. Lu Ping missed Huang Li Island, so he planned to bid farewell to his teacher, Liu Tianling Laozu.
Lu Ping entered his teacher's temporary cultivation room and told his teacher about his request. But to his surprise, Liu Tianling didn't recover immediately. Instead, he just sat there and didn't say a word. Lu Ping had no choice but to remain silent.
After a while, Liu Tianling Laozu suddenly opened his eyes. He stared at Lu Ping and asked, "What happened to Huang Li Island? What did that person say to you when he called you over? "
Lu Ping was stunned for a moment. Only then did he realize that the "person" his teacher was talking about was Jiang Tianlin Laozu. Therefore, Lu Ping roughly told him about the battle on Huang Li Island. At the same time, he told him about the chaotic battle on Heaven Spirit Mountain, how he was captured by Jiang Xuanlin Laozu, how he saw Tian Fan Laozu at Carefree Manor, and how he was punished together with Reverend Xuan Shang and the others and sent to Frost Island. His teacher sneered and said, "You guys are quite courageous. You dare to fight in front of our sect's land of inheritance. It looks like this is Xuan Shu's doing again. Xuan Chang must be involved. Hmph, that person is used to using this kind of compromising method. He calls it 'flexible'. How is he like a man! "
Lu Ping was silent. The first sentence was to remember even if he died, and the second sentence was to not get involved even if he was beaten to death.
