Lu Ping's seclusion only lasted for a year before he had no choice but to come out again. This was because Hu Lili had already filled the entire Huang Li Island with restrictions and arrays, preparing for Reverend Guo Xuanshan to use the Art of Moving Mountains and Filling Seas.
Now that Reverend Guo Xuanshan had once again returned to Huang Li Island, Lu Ping naturally couldn't hide in his cave dwelling and go into seclusion. Fortunately, Tianlin Laozu was on Huang Li Island. Although Lu Ping was the master, he was only accompanying him.
Reverend Guo Xuanshan was obviously very knowledgeable about geomancy. After setting foot on Huang Li Island, he looked towards Lu Ping's cave dwelling in surprise and said, "I didn't expect that Huang Li Island would rise to another level after a year or two. I'm afraid there's already half a neutral spiritual vein on the island? I've heard that many of our sect's idle Core Forging cultivators also go out to hunt through Huang Li Island. Even I'm envious of your achievements. "
Lu Ping smiled and said, "Martial Uncle must be joking. Martial Uncle is in charge of the sect, how could he be interested in this disciple's belongings?"
Reverend Guo Xuanshan said meaningfully, "You really have a lot of belongings!"
Lu Ping nodded as if he understood something and said, "This disciple is naturally not a miser. Only by being willing and willing can I obtain more."
Enlightened Master Guo Xuanshan pointed at Lu Ping and scolded jokingly, "Your shameless behavior reminds me of a certain someone. But you don't have to worry, the sect's ancestors have a good impression of you. Even if others have their opinions, you don't have to worry about it. It's just that this sedan chair has to be carried by everyone."
Reverend Guo Xuanshan pointed at Lu Ping and said with a smile, "This is for you."
Seeing that Lu Ping understood his words, Reverend Guo Xuanshan took out a storage pouch out of nowhere and threw it to Lu Ping, saying, "This is for you."
Lu Ping was surprised, but he still scanned the storage pouch and couldn't help but say, "Why is there so much?"
Reverend Guo Xuanshan looked at Lu Ping with a hint of ridicule and said, "What, the great Treasure Boy is also confused by a mere few hundred spirit stones?"
Lu Ping was speechless and said, "Martial Uncle, this is five hundred upper grade spirit stones. Even with the spirit mine on Frost Island, there shouldn't be so many upper grade spirit stones, right?"
Even though Lu Ping was exaggerating, he couldn't wait to put these five hundred upper grade spirit stones into his storage pouch as soon as possible. In the past year, in order to increase his cultivation, Lu Ping had set up the Great Spirit Transformation Formation twice in a row, and each time, he used thirty-six upper grade spirit stones. In addition to the spirit stones needed to refine medicinal pills during this period of time, the one hundred or so upper grade spirit stones that Lu Ping had accumulated with great difficulty were all gone in an instant. In the end, he had no choice but to use some middle grade spirit stones to make up for it.
Reverend Guo Xuanshan smiled and said, "During the last trip to Frost Island, you, Xuan Lei, Xuan Shang, and the others were each rewarded with two hundred upper grade spirit stones for discovering a large spirit mine. During that time, you also discovered a middle grade spirit mine on your own. This has never happened before in our sect, so the sect decided to reward you with another two hundred upper grade spirit stones. Last year, you forced Crystal Palace's Zhang Shijie to not even see your shadow with just two swords, greatly increasing our sect's prestige. Therefore, the sect rewarded you with another one hundred upper grade spirit stones."
Reverend Guo Xuanshan paused for a moment and said, "Originally, the sect wanted to give you some other benefits, but Senior Sister Tian Ling said that all the rewards will be given according to the amount of upper grade spirit stones. Therefore, this is what you will get."
Lu Ping praised his teacher's brilliance and strength in his heart. As he put the five hundred upper grade spirit stones into his storage ring, he said humbly, "This is what a disciple should do."
From afar, Hu Lili came over and reported to Reverend Guo Xuanshan that the formations and restrictions required to cast the Art of Mountain Moving and Sea Filling had all been prepared. Reverend Guo Xuanshan nodded and walked towards the eye of the formation.
At the core of the formation that Hu Lili had spent a great amount of time and precious materials to set up, Tianlin Laozu and Reverend Qu Xuancheng had been waiting for a long time.
When Reverend Qu saw Reverend Guo Xuanshan walking over, he looked to his left and right and asked with a strange smile, "Since Senior Brother Guo is going to show his might, why didn't Junior Brother Xuanyin come today?"
Reverend Guo Xuanshan was taken aback and said, "It seems that Junior Brother Xuanyin has been busy lately. There hasn't been any news about him in Heaven Spirit Mountain for a long time."
"Oh," Reverend Qu was also a little curious and said, "This is interesting. Junior Brother Xuanyin has rarely left Heaven Spirit Mountain for the past few decades, and now is the critical moment for him to achieve Golden Core. If it wasn't for something urgent, he wouldn't have left Heaven Spirit Mountain."
Reverend Qu Xuancheng saw that Lu Ping was thinking about something, so he asked, "Little Lu, Junior Brother Xuanyin's disciple has a good relationship with you. Have you heard any news about Junior Brother Xuanyin from his disciple?"
Reverend Qu Xuancheng knew that Lu Ping was on good terms with Yin Xuanchu and the others. After Lu Ping became an Alchemy Grandmaster, the pills that these friends needed to cultivate were usually refined by Lu Ping. Huang Li Island had also become a frequent destination for his friends. Therefore, Reverend Qu Xuancheng asked this question.
"Ah?"
When Lu Ping heard the two of them talk about Reverend Xuanyin, Lu Ping remembered the conversation he overheard between Reverend Xuanyin and another unfamiliar cultivator at the bottom of the sea. Reverend Xuanyin's disappearance during this period of time could also have something to do with the matter of avenging Reverend Xuanyin's wife. However, it was clear that Lu Ping couldn't reveal this matter. Reverend Qu Xuancheng suddenly asked, so Lu Ping could only answer, "How would this disciple know?"
Reverend Qu Xuancheng was actually just asking. He wasn't sure that Lu Ping knew the whereabouts of Reverend Xuanyin. Seeing that Lu Ping didn't know, he didn't continue asking about this matter. Reverend Qu Xuancheng was a ninth-level Core Forging cultivator who was about to become a Golden Core cultivator. With this level of cultivation, besides Dharma adepts, almost no one in the North Sea could pose a threat to him. Moreover, Reverend Xuanyin was proficient in the art of concealment and assassination. Cultivators of the same level would only be afraid of him. Who would dare to easily plot against him?
After greeting Tian Ling Laozu, Reverend Guo Xuanshan solemnly ascended the altar that Hu Lili and the others had built. As Reverend Guo Xuanshan walked towards the top of the altar, a treasure that looked like a mountain slowly rose from the top of Reverend Guo Xuanshan's head. The mountain gradually enlarged in mid-air. Lu Ping felt his feet sink, as if there was a force pressing down on his body, trying to imprison him to the ground.
Lu Ping raised his head to look at the mountain above the altar that was growing larger and larger. He knew that this was the effect of Reverend Guo Xuanshan's Moving Mountains and Filling Seas technique. When he turned to look at Tian Ling Laozu and Reverend Qu, both of them had a calm expression on their faces. It was obvious that this pressure was not even worth mentioning to them. On the other side, Hu Lili seemed to have some understanding of this Moving Mountains and Filling Seas technique. At this moment, she had already hidden tens of feet away.
Lu Ping's body trembled with True Essence and a blue mist spread out from his body. The mist immediately returned to his body. The pressure on his body immediately relaxed and he regained control of his body.
Not far away, Reverend Qu Xuancheng and Tian Ling Laozu conversed. Reverend Qu Xuancheng sighed with emotion and said, "This kid's True Essence is very strong. Senior Martial Brother Guo's Flying Mountain Treasure is not something that ordinary mid Core Forging Cultivators can casually break free from."
However, Ancestor Tianlin was a little puzzled. "Compared to his Quintessential Essence, which far surpasses cultivators of the same level, I'm more interested in the strength of this kid's fleshly body. Looks like this kid has quite a lot of good stuff on him. He's even collected some rare elixirs that can strengthen the fleshly body. The strength of his fleshly body is almost no weaker than a mid-grade magic item."
At this moment, a great pressure suddenly burst out from the center of the altar. The entire altar and the surrounding arrays and restrictions seemed to have been activated by Reverend Guo Xuanshan. A grey light flickered and the entire Huang Li Island suddenly trembled. Although the cultivators entering and leaving Huang Li Island had already been notified, when Reverend Guo Xuanshan's Moving Mountains and Filling Seas technique began to display its earth-shattering might, the cultivators on the island were shocked.
Daoist Master Guo Xuanshan wore a solemn expression on his face. With a stretch of his right hand, a short black whip appeared in his hand. Following which, the shadow of the whip pierced through the air. A series of muffled explosions could be heard from the distant horizon of the sea. As the short whip lashed down, the entire Huang Li Island trembled violently.
This was the power of Reverend Guo Xuanshan's natal magic treasure, the Mountain Driving Whip. The Mountain Driving Whip was a Spirit Nurturing Magic Treasure that had been refined with seven Dao Treasures. Under the effects of the Moving Mountains and Filling Seas technique, it could slowly move an island several tens of li away that had already been connected to Huang Li Island's array formation.
As Reverend Guo Xuanshan continued to swing the Mountain Driving Whip in his hand, rings of earthen yellow light fell from the top of the Flying Mountain Peak above his head and spread out towards the distant sea. The altar beneath Guo Xuanshan's feet released a series of crisp cracking sounds and a huge crack extended from the altar to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, Reverend Guo Xuanshan had lashed out eighteen times with the Mountain-Driving Whip in his hand. The surface of the altar was already covered with cracks, and even the solid ground underneath the altar had a one-foot wide crack, slowly extending to a distance of several hundred feet.
As the last whip shadow fell, Huang Li Island once again trembled violently. Muffled rumbling noises came from the distant seabed, as if a giant beast was roaring furiously. Immediately, a small spirit vein from Lu Ping's cave abode was drawn over and temporarily placed at the core of the array formation. It seemed to have replaced the role of Reverend Guo Xuanshan and the altar.
Reverend Guo Xuanshan slowly walked down from the altar. Just as he was about to leave the altar, the thirty zhang tall altar suddenly collapsed. As if he had already expected this, Reverend Guo turned to Lu Ping and said, "This island should be the one closest to Huang Li Island, right? The Art of Moving the Mountains and Filling the Seas is a long process. Although this divine art is successful, it will take at least a month for the island to move on its own and connect to Huang Li Island even with the support of this spirit vein. "
Lu Ping nodded to show that he understood. He handed over a bottle of medicinal pills with both hands and said, "Martial Uncle, please recover your True Essence first, then move to the next altar to perform the divine ability."
Reverend Guo Xuanshan laughed and said, "There's no hurry. With the help of the array formation and the altar, we can save most of the trouble. With the True Essence in the Old Man's body, he can perform the Mountain Moving Sea Filling Divine Ability again and pull the other island over."
However, Reverend Guo Xuanshan seemed to have thought of something and took the jade bottle from Lu Ping's hand. He opened it and said with joy, "Not bad, it's an extremely rare Spirit Tempering Pill in the late Core Forging stage. Isn't this pill only refined by the North Sea's Liao Family? I didn't expect you to have it here.
Reverend Qu, who was at the side, had already heard the conversation between the two. He quickly walked over and said, "Little Brat Lu Ping can actually refine a Spirit Tempering Pill? The Old Man had personally looked for Liao Runjia three times and only managed to get one bottle. I didn't expect you to already have the pill recipe. This won't do. The Old Man will immediately gather some spirit herbs for you. You have to refine at least three bottles of Spirit Tempering Pill for the Old Man. "
