There were a total of four altars built on Huang Li Island, corresponding to the four islands that needed to be moved. The first island was the location of Sheng Tao's cave, where Lu Ping had found the alchemy inheritance. Zhenren Guo first moved this island, and the Mountain Driving Whip produced a total of eighteen whip shadows before he completed the Mountain Driving Whip.
As for the other three islands and reefs, the amount of True Yuan and Dharmic powers expended by Zhenren Guo varied according to the distance from Huang Li Island and the size of the islands and reefs. The Mountain Driving Whip had produced twenty-seven, thirty-six, and the highest number was forty-nine. Even though Zhenren Guo Xuanshan had achieved the seventh-grade Golden Core and was only a step away from the Dharma stage, it still took him seven days to complete the task.
Every time he successfully moved an island, Lu Ping had to temporarily confine a small spirit vein at the altar where Zhenren Guo was located. This was also the place where the Formation Eye of the Mountain Driving Formation was located. After Zhenren Guo completed the Mountain Driving Formation, it could replace him to support the operation of the formation and speed up the island's movement in the direction of Huang Li Island.
Fortunately, the Spirit Gathering Pearl that Lu Ping had buried a small spirit vein a year ago had nurtured another small spirit vein. In addition to the eight small spirit veins, the total number of spirit veins on Huang Li Island was now close to six small spirit veins, which was more than enough to support the Mountain Driving Formation.
After Zhenren Guo completed the Mountain Driving Formation, Lu Ping gave him two bottles of Spirit Tempering Pills as a congratulatory gift. He also gave Blood Condensing Pills, Spirit Water Meridian Nourishing Pills, and dozens of other pills that he had refined for the sect during this period, to be brought back to the sect.
After twenty days, the silhouette of the first island could be vaguely seen in the distance. A month later, this island finally connected with Huang Li Island. After another half a month, the earth vein under the island began to connect with Huang Li Island, and the small spirit vein that supported the operation of the formation returned to Lu Ping's cave. At this time, a cultivator named Tian Yue also found the first spiritual gathering place on the land that had just become part of Huang Li Island. This was the first time that a spiritual gathering place had been discovered since the spiritual gathering places on Huang Li Island had become saturated.
More than a year had passed since the reefs were pulled over and the earth veins under the island merged with Huang Li Island. With the support of a large number of high-grade spirit stones, the support of several spirit veins, and the continuous supply of spirit pellets, Lu Ping's cultivation base finally made significant progress. He was now moving towards the peak of the Fourth Layer Core Forging Realm. However, he still wasn't sure when he would be able to break through to the Fifth Layer.
However, inspired by Enlightened Master Guo Xuanshan's Fei Lai Peak mystic treasure, Lu Ping asked Enlightened Master Guo Xuanshan for another talisman treasure and completed the third talisman treasure, [Landslide]. Unfortunately, Enlightened Master Guo Xuanshan cultivated an earth-elemental cultivation method, which was incompatible with Lu Ping's water-elemental cultivation method. Five of the six talisman treasures on Fei Lai Peak were pure earth-elemental treasures, and only one was a combination of the earth-elemental and water-elemental treasures.
With Landslide's current grade, unless Lu Ping could find spirit materials of higher quality to further upgrade it, it would be extremely difficult to upgrade it into a spirit-connected mystic treasure.
In the Carefree Hall at the top of Heaven's Spirit Mountain, Tian Fan, Tian Jiang, Tian Lu, and Tian Lin sat.
Tian Fan Laozu looked at Tian Lin Laozu, took out a jade slip from his sleeve, and said, "This is the recipe for the Spirit-Forging Pill that Xuanqin collected in the East Sea. It is said that a cultivator from the Crystal Palace found it in Fei Ling Sect's Zhong Xuan Laozu's cave. Xuanqin gave this recipe to Senior Tian Xiang to bring back to the sect. Although this recipe only lists the various spiritual materials needed to refine the Spirit-Forging Pill, it is still valuable."
After Tian Jiang and Tian Lu Laozu looked at the recipe, Tian Lin Laozu took it from them expressionlessly, then returned it to Tian Fan Laozu. Tian Fan Laozu handed the recipe directly to Tian Lu Laozu, saying, "This recipe should be given to Junior Tian Lu. The Elixir Pavilion should make some preparations according to the ingredients listed in the recipe. If our sect is lucky enough to obtain the recipe for the Spirit-Forging Pill, Junior Tian Lu can refine it immediately."
Tian Jiang Laozu smiled, "Previously, when Xuan Ling Sect showed off the recipe for the Spirit-Forging Pill in the North Sea Palace, it must be this item, right? The Crystal Palace only shared a useless jade slip with Xuan Ling Sect. Is it worth it for them to be so arrogant?"
Tian Lin Laozu smiled, "That's not the same. You should know that the Five Great Sects of the East Sea visiting the Ten Great Sects of the North Sea is, to put it bluntly, a form of assistance from the Five Great Sects of the East Sea. On the surface, it's to fight against the Monster Clan together, but in reality, it's to hope that the North Sea's cultivation world can become the East Sea's vassal. Xuan Ling Sect and our sect are the sects that the East Sea's sects hope to lead. However, it seems that Xuan Ling Sect's position in the East Sea's sects is obviously higher than ours. Although our sect has taken advantage of the East Sea's sects to loot a lot of benefits, at least they haven't given us the recipe for the Spirit-Forging Pill. "
Tian Fan Laozu smiled, "That's perfect. Although the North Sea's cultivation world is led by our sect and Xuan Ling Sect, the Ten Great Sects all have mid-stage Core Forging cultivators, so the gap between the sects isn't too big. If the sects don't have too many differences, Zhen Ling Sect and Xuan Ling Sect may be able to take the lead. However, if the benefits involved are too great and the differences are too serious, then the sects will be in a state of disunity. Making the entire North Sea's cultivation world a vassal of the East Sea's sects … Let Xuan Ling Sect taste the bitter fruit of making the entire North Sea's cultivation world a vassal of the East Sea's sects. For now, we should accumulate our strength and wait and see. "
Tianlu Laozu glanced at Tian Lin Laozu, then turned to Tian Fan Laozu and asked, "How is Xuanqin doing in the East Sea?"
Tian Fan Laozu smiled, "You are Xuanqin's teacher. Who knows her better than you? She successfully entered the Dharma stage two years ago. If she returns to our sect, she will be called Xuanqin Laozu. However, she has joined an organization called 'Boudoir' in the East Sea. This organization is very famous in the East Sea. It seems that they have a great cultivator as their backer, and they are specifically against the Crystal Palace. With Xuanqin's grandmaster alchemy skills, she is naturally a high-level cultivator in the organization. Otherwise, how could the half-step recipe for the Spirit-Forging Pill that the Crystal Palace obtained be in Xuanqin's hands? "
Tian Jiang Laozu asked nervously, "Since there is a great cultivator in the 'Boudoir', it must be stronger than our sect. Xuanqin is also a genius, so she is naturally high up in the 'Boudoir'. So, is Xuanqin still willing to return to our sect?"
Tian Jiang Laozu's words clearly pointed out what was on the minds of the other Laozu. After a while, Tian Fan Laozu said, "Since the ancient times, children do not dislike their mothers for being ugly, and dogs do not dislike their families for being poor. Xuanqin is my disciple. Even though she left in anger, Zhenling is the place where she grew up for hundreds of years. With her teachers and fellow disciples, I think Xuanqin will understand."
After saying this, it seemed that Tian Fan Laozu himself did not have much confidence, so he added, "What's more, Senior Brother Tianxiang is in the Fallen Secret Land. When Xuanqin left East Sea, Senior Brother Tianxiang immediately guarded the Fallen Secret Land. Now it seems that besides fighting for the right to speak in the Fallen Secret Land for our sect, it is also for Xuanqin. Now that Xuanqin has been sending news back to the cultivation world of the East Sea, and this time she even sent this recipe, I think it must be a problem."
Tian Lu Laozu carefully looked at the recipe again and said with some difficulty, "Not to mention the fact that there is no refining method for this recipe, the spirit herbs used are not ordinary. Also, the most important ingredient, the Wonder Dew, has not been heard of in the cultivation world for nearly a thousand years. Even if our sect was lucky enough to obtain the Wonder Dew, the Na Chuan Cauldron has now been upgraded to a magic treasure cauldron, so it is impossible to refine it on a large scale. It is already very fortunate that we were able to gather one cauldron."
Tian Fan Laozu smiled bitterly and said, "How could Old Man not know this? But it is not easy to have this half of the recipe. Don't forget that the reason why Fei Ling Sect was exterminated was because this Spirit Forging Pill was coveted by all sects. Therefore, even this half of the recipe must be kept a secret. Apart from Junior Brother Tianlu, I think only Xuan Yan and Xuan Yue, the two Alchemy Grandmasters who can refine late Core Forging Pills, should know about it. Don't tell anyone else."
At this time, Tian Lin Laozu said, "I'm afraid Martial Uncle still doesn't know, but Tian Ling's ninth disciple, Lu Ping, can also refine late Core Forging Pills. I don't know where this kid got the Liao Family's Spirit Stabilizing Pills, but he refined three cauldrons of Spirit Pills for Junior Brother Qu."
"Oh?" Tian Fan Laozu looked at Tianlu Laozu in surprise. All the alchemists under Zhenling's tutelage were under Tianlu Laozu's jurisdiction. Naturally, Tianlu Laozu knew the most about Lu Ping.
Tianlu Laozu stroked his beard and nodded with a smile. "This kid's talent in alchemy is no less than Xuan Qin's."
Tian Fan Laozu waved his hand and said, "If that's the case, count this kid in as well."
In the North Sea Palace of Huan Yu Island, a dozen or so cultivators from the five major sects of the East Sea gathered in the main hall of the North Sea Palace to discuss something.
The North Sea Palace was used by the various sects of Huan Yu Island to receive their guests. Normally, it was only used to receive guests of high status. At this time, although there were close to twenty people in the North Sea Palace, the only ones who could participate in the discussion were the mid Dharma stage cultivator, Laozu, and the five late Core Forging stage cultivators who were sitting cross-legged beside him.
The one who was speaking was Zhenren Qin of the Northern Alliance of the East Sea. He was the same Zhenren Qin that Lu Ping had met at the Northern Alliance Elixir Gathering.
At this time, Zhenren Qin seemed to be expressing his opinion. "… From this, although it is hard to tell who is better between the North Sea Zhenling Sect and Xuan Ling Sect, in terms of second, third, and even fourth generation disciples, Zhenling is undoubtedly better. Two of its second generation disciples have already entered the Dharma stage, and at least two of them have already condensed a Golden Elixir of at least the seventh grade and are about to enter the Dharma stage. On the other hand, Xuan Ling Sect only has one disciple who has entered the Dharma stage. Among the third generation disciples, this time, the disciples of the five major sects of the East Sea and the ten major sects of the North Sea can see some clues. Xuan Ling Sect only won three matches, while Zhenling won four and drew one. The other eight major sects were only lucky enough to win one or two matches. This was also because we did not want to embarrass the sects of the North Sea too much, so we went easy on them. Therefore, although Zhenling currently does not have much of an advantage, in the long run, Zhenling will definitely surpass Xuan Ling Sect and is the most suitable sect to be the leader of the North Sea cultivation world. Therefore, in the opinion of the Old Man, the East Sea cultivation world should support Zhenling. "
Immortal Qin's words were reasonable and the cultivators of the other sects nodded when they heard it. Only Zhang Shijie, the disciple of the Crystal Palace, looked unlucky. Zhang Shijie was unlucky this time. He had won nine out of ten matches in the North Sea, but he lost to Zhenling's Water Sword Immortal, wiping away all the glory he had before and after. Zhang Shijie originally thought that after this trip to the North Sea, he could change the view of the high-level cultivators of the Crystal Palace. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by Lu Ping in an extremely aggrieved way. Zhang Shijie could already see how he would be ridiculed when he returned to the Crystal Palace.
Although Immortal Qin's statement won the approval of most people, not everyone agreed to let Zhenling be the leader of the North Sea cultivation world.
Immortal Ming Shan of the Crystal Palace opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but after thinking for a long time, he could not think of any reason that could overturn Immortal Qin's words. He could only look at Fa Xiang Laozu, who was sitting at the top.
This Fa Xiang Laozu was the leader of the five major sects of the East Sea's visit to the North Sea cultivation world, Yuan Guang Laozu of the Crystal Palace.
Yuan Guang Laozu smiled and said to Immortal Qin, "What Martial Nephew Qin said is very reasonable, but it is precisely because of this that we cannot support Zhenling to be the leader of the North Sea cultivation world."
Immortal Qin was a little puzzled, but the other party was Senior Laozu, a cultivator of the giant Crystal Palace of the East Sea, and he was fully responsible for the visit to the North Sea cultivation world. Immortal Qin did not dare to be negligent, and only said respectfully, "Please enlighten me, Laozu!"
Ancestor Yuan Guang seemed to understand Immortal Qin's thoughts. He said unhurriedly, "The Zhen Ling Sect has been working hard to build up its strength, and the whole sect is united. How can it be controlled by Dong Hai? Xuan Ling Sect is declining, but with the help of East Sea, they will definitely compete with Zhenling. In this way, the North Sea cultivation world will not be peaceful, and it will be beneficial for East Sea to rope them in. They will become the vanguard of the various sects of East Sea, and become the vanguard against the demon race. This is the most beneficial way for East Sea's cultivation world to deal with it. "
Immortal Qin was a little puzzled, and asked, "But only by resisting the outside world and pacifying the inside world can we resist the demon race. Although the North Sea is weak, it is not dispensable. After all, it is a force against the demon race. If it is consumed in the internal strife, it will not be a good thing for the human race."
Yuan Guang Laozu nodded and said, "Martial Nephew Qin has a unique vision, but the Old Man has lived a few hundred years longer than you. The cultivation world is not as simple as the confrontation between the human race and the demon race. When the time comes, who can say that the human race and the demon race will not join forces? When that time comes, this little bit of power in the North Sea cultivation world will really be dispensable. Don't forget that the so-called North Sea is barren because there are no large amounts of cultivation resources found here, but this does not mean that there are no cultivation resources in the North Sea. Not discovering and not existing are two different things. Don't forget that the North Sea cultivators have now discovered a large spirit vein on an island. Who can guarantee that in the future, there will not be other large spirit veins, spirit veins, or even giant spirit veins and spirit veins in the North Sea? "
"After all, the North Sea cultivation world should be controlled by the East Sea. In the future, if the South Sea cultivation world is controlled, then the prosperity of the entire overseas cultivation world will not be inferior to that of the Central Plains." Yuan Guang Laozu's words made the cultivators of the five major sects of East Sea excited. Immortal Qin felt that something was wrong, but he could not find an excuse. At the same time, he was also attracted by the scene described by Yuan Guang Laozu, and began to calculate how the Northern Alliance could get a bigger share of the benefits. As for the rise and fall of the North Sea cultivation world, it was no longer something they considered.
