Lu Ping followed Ceng Wu into the depths of the Mortal Market. Ceng Wu walked hurriedly with a happy expression on his face. Lu Ping followed behind him at a leisurely pace. At the same time, he had the time to browse through the various items on display at his feet.
A moment later, Lu Ping's expression changed and he glanced ahead. However, Ceng Wu, who was leading the way for Lu Ping, did not notice it at all. He continued to walk forward with a happy expression.
Ceng Wu did not think that the cultivator who gave him the Spirit Stones and pills back then was actually a Core Forging expert. When he and his companions went out to sea this time, they found a cave left behind by a predecessor. In the cave, they had a plentiful harvest, but there were also many miscellaneous items that they did not recognize. His companions were all Independent Cultivators, so they were not very knowledgeable. They were not sure of the value of these items, and they were afraid of selling them to the shops in the market. They did not dare to show them to high grade cultivators, afraid that they would be killed and robbed. Just when everyone was at a loss, Ceng Wu found Lu Ping, who was buying Spirit Herbs in the market.
Ceng Wu had an extremely deep impression of this senior who had helped him all those years ago. Most importantly, Lu Ping did not treat him like other high grade cultivators. From the Spirit Stones and pills that Lu Ping had given him, Ceng Wu believed that Lu Ping was not a cultivator with evil intentions. Furthermore, as a Core Forging cultivator, Lu Ping must be very knowledgeable. The things that Ceng Wu and his companions had obtained could be shown to this senior.
Ceng Wu believed that there must be some valuable treasures among the things that he and his companions had found. If this senior valued them, they would definitely be able to obtain a lot of benefits from this senior. Ceng Wu knew that this senior was an Alchemist.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise in front of them. Ceng Wu's expression changed. That was where his companions were. Ceng Wu looked behind him and saw that Lu Ping had nodded. Ceng Wu hurriedly squeezed into the crowd of onlookers.
"This is going to be lively! I just don't know what kind of treasure these little fellows obtained to actually provoke the people from the ten great sects to forcefully buy it. "
Lu Ping smiled silently, and the aura of a Core Forging Cultivator spread out. The cultivators around him moved aside, opening a path for Lu Ping.
The commotion in the front also stopped. Lu Ping walked in and saw Ceng Wu, three men and two women, arguing with a few Blood Condensation cultivators.
Most of the cultivators who were arguing were at the Mid and Late Blood Condensation Realm. It was clear that they were trying to suppress Zeng Wu's companions. Even though Zeng Wu's companions were trying their best to defend themselves, their faces were flushed red. Their strength was too weak and they were clearly at a disadvantage.
Lu Ping looked at the cultivators. From their clothes, they should be from Xuan Ling Sect, Shui Yan Pavilion, and Fei Yu Sect. There were also two cultivators who were wearing sect uniforms, but they clearly did not belong to the ten great sects.
However, these people were just small fries. Lu Ping glanced at the onlookers behind them with a hint of ridicule in his eyes. Then, he looked at the miscellaneous items placed in front of Ceng Wu's companions. He squatted down and began to look through the items as if there was no one else around.
Lu Ping roughly looked through the items in front of him and more or less understood what Ceng Wu and his companions were in trouble.
Most of these items were useless utensils. Moreover, most of the utensils were made from low-grade spiritual materials. It was obvious that these items came from the same cave abode. In other words, Ceng Wu and his companions had discovered a cave abode in the sea. Judging from the utensils, the owner of this cave abode might have been a cultivator with a high cultivation when he was alive. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to use low-grade spiritual herbs to make cups, tables, chairs, and bowls.
Just as Lu Ping was looking through the items on the ground, a green light flashed in Lu Ping's eyes. He reached out and grabbed something that looked like a broken piece of ceramic.
However, at that moment, a loud voice shouted, "Where did this blind fool come from? Xuan Ling Sect and Fei Yu Sect will buy all these things. Scram!"
Lu Ping frowned. He felt a strong gust of wind in front of him.
Lu Ping's spiritual sense was very sensitive. Before the Blood Condensation Realm cultivator made his move, he had already noticed something was amiss. He snorted coldly and the cultivator who attacked Lu Ping felt as if a sudden clap of thunder had exploded in his ears. Before the technique he sent towards Lu Ping could reach him, the arcane energy in his body was already thrown into chaos by Lu Ping's cold snort. The technique lost control of itself in mid-air and collapsed.
Just as the cultivator made his move, another cultivator in the crowd followed suit. However, his target wasn't Lu Ping, but the Xuan Ling Late Blood Condensation Realm disciple who attacked Lu Ping. This cultivator didn't attack the Xuan Ling Sect disciple. Instead, he used a defensive artifact to shield the disciple.
This was obviously a last-minute scheme against Lu Ping. The goal was to embarrass Lu Ping in front of everyone. However, Lu Ping had already seen through it. Contrary to what the Xuan Ling Sect Enlightened Master had expected, Lu Ping didn't punish the Xuan Ling Sect disciple directly. Instead, he used his spiritual sense to attack the Xuan Ling Sect disciple, causing him to bleed from his nose and mouth.
The Xuan Ling Sect Enlightened Master who had shielded the Xuan Ling Sect disciple with his defensive artifact turned pale. The Core Forging Realm disciple's spatial zone had already been shattered. Even if he survived, he would only be a mortal. At the same time, the Enlightened Master was shocked. This Xuan Ling Mid Core Forging Realm cultivator's spiritual sense was so powerful that he could destroy a Late Blood Condensation Realm cultivator's cultivation base.
Lu Ping clapped his hands and stood up. He said, "You've got guts. The North Sea Grand Alliance has a rule that cultivators are not allowed to attack each other on Huan Yu Island. Does this Xuan Ling Sect disciple think that Huan Yu Island belongs to him? Does he think he can attack whoever he wants?"
Lu Ping looked at the Xuan Ling Sect Enlightened Master who jumped out from the crowd. The Enlightened Master retracted his defensive artifact and said coldly, "Of course, Huan Yu Island doesn't belong to Xuan Ling Sect. However, Xuan Ling Sect is a part of Huan Yu Island. As a Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master of Zhenling, how dare you kill a low-level cultivator of our sect? What kind of rule does the North Sea Grand Alliance allow you to do that?"
Lu Ping laughed, but there was no trace of a smile on his face. He said coldly, "What a joke. I'm a Core Forging Realm cultivator, but I was attacked by a Blood Condensation Realm Minor Repairs cultivator. If I don't punish him, where will my dignity as a Core Forging Realm cultivator go?"
Lu Ping didn't wait for the Xuan Ling Sect cultivator to speak and continued, "Speaking of which, I really admire this Xuan Ling Blood Condensation Realm cultivator for having the guts to attack a Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master. As expected of a disciple of Xuan Ling Sect. You're truly bold and skillful. I admire you!"
As Lu Ping spoke, he cupped his fists at the Xuan Ling Sect cultivator who was lying limply on the ground. His words were full of mockery.
By now, more and more cultivators had gathered to watch the fight. Many of them laughed out loud when they heard Lu Ping's words. The Xuan Ling Sect Enlightened Master's face flushed red as if blood was about to drip out of his eyes.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Zhenling and Xuan Ling Sect were at loggerheads again. Such a situation was not uncommon in the North Sea's cultivation world. However, the strange thing was, where did this Xuan Ling Sect disciple get the courage to attack a Zhenling Core Forging Realm cultivator? Not to mention, his mouth was so filthy that even death couldn't wipe out his crimes.
However, many of the cultivators who were watching the fight from the sidelines saw through the trick. The Xuan Ling Sect's Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master had activated his defensive artifact the moment the Xuan Ling Sect disciple made his move. This was obviously a ploy to humiliate the Zhenling Sect disciple. However, the Zhenling Enlightened Master was already prepared. He used his divine sense to shatter the Xuan Ling Sect disciple's heart core, causing Xuan Ling Sect to suffer a double loss.
This Zhenling Enlightened Master was really powerful. He could shatter a Late Blood Condensation Realm cultivator's heart core with just his divine sense. The surrounding cultivators looked at Lu Ping in amazement, but they all took two steps back in unison. The circle around them suddenly doubled in size.
"Good, good!" The Xuan Ling Sect disciple's face turned ashen. He pointed at Lu Ping and said, "Sir, do you dare to leave your name? I'll have a friendly match outside Huan Yu Island. Please don't hesitate to teach me!"
He turned to a brown-robed cultivator beside him and said, "Junior Brother Sha, why don't you stand aside and watch for me?"
The brown-robed cultivator looked at Lu Ping with an ugly expression. However, he still pulled the Xuan Ling Sect disciple to the side and whispered something to him. From time to time, he turned back to look at Lu Ping and Sha Feiyu.
When the Xuan Ling Sect disciple returned, he looked at Lu Ping with a dark expression. He didn't mention the friendly match again. He just stood at the side without saying a word, but he didn't leave either.
Lu Ping looked at the brown-robed cultivator and knew that he was a Perfected Master from Fei Yu Sect. He sneered and didn't say anything. He squatted down again and picked up the broken ceramic shard. Then, he turned to Ceng Wu and his companion, who were already scared stiff, and asked, "I want this shard. Do you want spirit stones or medicinal pills in exchange?"
The two female cultivators who were arguing with the Xuan Ling Sect, Fei Yu Sect, and Shui Yan Pavilion's Blood Condensation Realm disciples were speechless when they heard Lu Ping's question. Their faces were filled with fear.
However, Ceng Wu reacted quickly and said, "Senior, this is something that my companions and I found while we were exploring overseas. We didn't know what it was at first. If Senior likes it, you can just give me some spirit stones."
Lu Ping pondered for a moment and said, "I won't take advantage of you. This ceramic shard should be one of the shards of a spiritual artifact. Although it's broken and doesn't have much value, just this spiritual material alone is worth a lot of spirit stones. Here are 60 mid-grade spirit stones and six bottles of Blood Condensation Realm cultivation pills. The six of you can split it among yourselves."
Ceng Wu received the storage bag from Lu Ping with both hands. His face was filled with joy. However, as if he thought of something, his face turned gloomy. His companion behind him was also excited. Obviously, he didn't expect that a piece of ceramic shard could be exchanged for so many cultivation resources.
After Ceng Wu received the storage bag, he looked at Lu Ping with a pleading expression. Then, he turned around and gathered his companions together. No one knew what they were discussing. Lu Ping saw that Ceng Wu was somewhat intelligent, so he wasn't in a hurry and continued to look at the fragments on the ground.
