Fornax Laozu waited outside the Heavenly Grotto for seven days, but Lu Ping did not appear. Fornax Laozu finally realized that something was wrong. No pill would take such a long time to concoct, not to mention that Liang Xuanfeng's situation was getting worse and worse. He was afraid that he would not be able to hold on for much longer. Fornax Laozu had no choice but to enter the Land of Inheritance again to check on Lu Ping's situation.
Fornax Laozu was angry and amused at the same time as he watched the Lingqi in the entire Heavenly Grotto constantly fluctuate and converge towards the center of the Heavenly Grotto. At the center of the Heavenly Grotto was Lu Ping, who had already entered a meditative state under the Na Chuan Cauldron.
Was his cultivation about to break through?
This guy was really lucky. The rich Lingqi in the Land of Inheritance was not a place that ordinary cultivators were qualified to cultivate in.
Fortunately, Fornax Laozu saw the Jade Crystal Bottle that Lu Ping had placed at his side. Fornax Laozu stretched out his hand and the Jade Crystal Bottle immediately flew towards Fornax Laozu.
A cultivator who could use a magic pill furnace had to be at least at the late stage of Core Forging. Their alchemy skills also had to be at the peak of the Grandmaster level. He did not expect that this kid could use a magic pill furnace with only a cultivation of the fourth layer of Core Forging.
Fornax Laozu opened the Jade Crystal Bottle and sniffed it. His face suddenly showed a look of surprise. Then, he poured a Minor Forging Spirit Pill into his hand. Looking at the round and translucent pill, Fornax Laozu's expression changed. Then, he suddenly had a look of surprise. Finally, after putting the pill into the Jade Crystal Bottle, Fornax Laozu looked deeply at Lu Ping, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. Then, he quietly opened the door of the Heavenly Grotto and disappeared.
Only Lu Ping, who was in the midst of breaking through, was left in the vast grotto-heaven. Because of Lu Ping, the entire grotto-heaven was filled with a turbulent atmosphere.
A huge amount of spiritual energy was absorbed into his body by the [North Sea Wave Listening Scripture] and refined into a dark blue True Essence. The True Essence fused with Lu Ping's bloodline and flowed into his heart space, settling in the Golden Core in the center of his heart space. At the same time, strands of divine sense were condensed into the Golden Core along with the True Essence and bloodline essence.
As he infused his divine sense into the golden core, a snake's body, crocodile's legs, carp's tail, and a strange Jiao Dragon with antlers appeared on the surface of the golden core. This was the fifth strange Jiao Dragon that Lu Ping's divine sense had formed on the surface of the golden core.
When Lu Ping advanced to the fifth stage of Core Forging and completely consolidated his cultivation, Lu Ping's closed door training time in the Heavenly Grotto exceeded a year.
After waking up, Lu Ping looked at the various fire seeds in the grotto-heaven that were repelled by the phenomenon of his breakthrough. He couldn't help but find it funny. But then he remembered that the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd only needed two more fire seeds to form a new Bing Huo Yin Thunder. When that time came, he would be able to summon a lightning technique that was not any weaker than a great technique. With this, the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd had reached the initial success stage. If he wanted to improve it further, he would have to find the fourth spiritual barrier in the gourd, and at the same time, he would have to collect more extraordinary items.
However, thinking about what Fornax Laozu had said before, Lu Ping was embarrassed to directly capture the fire seeds in the Land of Inheritance.
After thinking about it, Lu Ping threw out a sound transmission sword. But after a moment, Fornax Laozu's reply came. There were only two sentences on the sword: "Xuanfeng is fine. You can take two fire seeds from the Land of Inheritance."
Lu Ping was very clear about Fornax Laozu's meaning. The Minor Forging Spirit Pill saved Xuanfeng's hopes of reaching the peak of the seventh-grade Golden Core. The two fire seeds of Heaven and Earth Oddities were the reward.
With Fornax Laozu's approval, Lu Ping naturally wouldn't be polite. He specifically found two fire seeds of Heaven and Earth Oddities and collected them with the Seven Thunder Gem Calabash. Lu Ping believed that after a period of time, with Lu Ping's refinement, the Seven Thunder Gem Calabash would reach small success. Lu Ping would also be able to master the "Hundred Rivers into the Sea" sword formation.
Feeling the increased strength in his body, Lu Ping let out a long sigh. At this moment, the cultivation of his Divine Sense was no less than that of a ninth-stage Core Forging cultivator. At this time, he even had the confidence to fight a late-stage Core Forging cultivator.
Lu Ping took out his identity nameplate from the Zhenling Sect. After his True Essence surged into the nameplate, a blue light suddenly formed a door in the Heavenly Grotto.
Lu Ping walked out of the Pill Pavilion and saw Spiritual Master Profound Miao walking towards him from afar.
Lu Ping was startled for a moment, then immediately guessed the reason for Spiritual Master Profound Miao's visit, so he immediately walked in another direction, as if to avoid him.
Unexpectedly, the Profound Miao seemed to have predicted Lu Ping's reaction. As soon as he turned around, his arm had already been grabbed by the Profound Miao. Before Lu Ping could even open his mouth to ask, the Profound Miao said nothing and directly pulled him toward the Heaven's Spirit Hall.
Spiritual Master Profound Miao was only a third-stage Core Forging cultivator, and he had no hope of advancing to the mid-stage Core Forging cultivator. As long as Lu Ping was willing, it was impossible for Spiritual Master Profound Miao to capture Lu Ping. However, Spiritual Master Profound Miao was Zhenling's second-generation disciple and Lu Ping's Martial Uncle. In addition, Lu Ping had found several excuses to reject Spiritual Master Profound Miao's proposal. Therefore, Lu Ping could only let Spiritual Master Profound Miao grab his arm and walk toward the Heaven's Spirit Hall.
Spiritual Master Profound Miao came personally and almost forcibly captured Lu Ping. Lu Ping also knew that Spiritual Master Profound Miao was here to accept a disciple. In recent years, the number of mid-stage Blood Condensation cultivators in Zhenling had increased to the point that Zhenling couldn't accept all of them. Not only did many mid-stage Blood Condensation cultivators not have a master, even some late-stage Blood Condensation cultivators had been exploring their own path of cultivation.
Although Zhen Ling Sect had a rule that every Daoist Master of Core Forging Sect could only take in a maximum of twelve personal disciples, and no more than twenty-four personal disciples, the truth was that many Daoist Masters of Core Forging Sect were very cautious when it came to passing down their legacy. Thus, it was rare for them to take in twelve personal disciples.
Due to these two factors, Zhenling's annual apprenticeship ceremony was always packed with mid-stage and late-stage Blood Condensation cultivators, but only a few Core Forging Enlightened Masters wanted to accept disciples.
This made Spiritual Master Profound Miao, the Enlightened Master stationed at the Heaven's Spirit Hall, feel pain and happiness at the same time. He was gratified that the growth of the younger generation of Zhenling's disciples meant that the sect was growing stronger and stronger. However, his headache was that every time the ceremony was held, Spiritual Master Profound Miao would search for all the Core Forging cultivators on Tianling Mountain and the various islands. He would forcefully drag these Enlightened Masters out of their caves to recruit disciples at the Heaven's Spirit Hall.
Other than the Enlightened Masters who used resources to recruit disciples, among the Enlightened Masters who were 'invited' by Spiritual Master Profound Miao, some of the Enlightened Masters happened to meet a disciple they fancied, which could be considered as an unexpected gain. There were also some Enlightened Masters who couldn't stand Spiritual Master Profound Miao's face and could only accept a few in-name disciples. Now, Spiritual Master Profound Miao had become someone that all the Core Forging cultivators in Zhenling had to avoid.
