In front of the group of scarlet sea snakes, a foot-tall gourd that was flickering with colorful brilliance suddenly appeared. Purple lightning flashed from time to time in the space half a foot around the gourd, making the gourd look abnormally demonic from afar.
There were hundreds of scarlet sea snakes. The sudden appearance of such a thing in the direction they were heading in immediately attracted the attention of many sea snakes. A few sea snakes took the lead to leave the group and swam forward, looking like they were exploring the way.
A few sea snakes circled around the gourd a few times, and one of them carefully approached the gourd. However, when the sea snake approached within half a foot of the gourd, a colorful brilliance flashed, and the sea snake's body immediately stiffened.
Seeing this situation, the other sea snakes swam randomly, distancing themselves from the gourd. They watched their companion's stiff body slowly descend to the bottom of the sea from afar. At the same time, the group that was moving slowly behind them also stopped moving, seemingly watching the development of the situation ahead.
However, just after the sea snake sank several tens of feet, its stiff body suddenly moved as if it was trying to get rid of something. Then, the sea snake's body swayed more and more violently. After a while, the stiff sea snake seemed to have finally regained control of its body. After its sinking body stopped, it swam up and down in the seawater for a while, seemingly checking if its body had suffered any damage.
After that, the sea snake suddenly raised its head and swam upward, once again coming to the vicinity of the gourd. After swimming around the gourd a few times, the sea snake seemed to have made up its mind and approached the gourd half a foot away from it again.
Another brilliance flashed, and the stiff sea snake sank to the bottom of the sea again. After a while, the sea snake, who had regained control of its body, swam straight toward the gourd again. This time, it didn't even test the waters before. It went straight into the range of the gourd, then stiffened, sank, and recovered.
The sea snake actually didn't get tired of it, as if it was treating this as a game. Or perhaps, after the brilliance around the gourd flickered, it experienced a kind of pleasure from the process of its stiff body sinking.
When the other sea snakes saw what happened to the first sea snake, it finally piqued their curiosity. The other sea snakes that came with the first sea snake also cautiously approached the gourd. What happened after that was the same as the first sea snake.
This soon attracted all the sea snakes behind them. After a while, the gourd was submerged in this huge sea snake group. From time to time, the stiff sea snakes sank to the bottom of the sea without moving. The entire sea snake group seemed to treat the gourd suspended in the sea as a toy, and they didn't realize the slightest danger.
About a mile away from this group of sea snakes, Lu Ping merged the Meteoric Poison Force and the Waterproof Pearl into the shield. Then, he stood in the shield with Luan Yu and Samling, watching the scene in the distance.
"I didn't expect it to have such an effect. Originally, I thought that the Seven Treasures Lightning Calabash was the bane of these poisonous beasts. However, I was worried about how to bring all the poisonous beasts into the range of the Lightning Calabash's attack.
Lu Ping chuckled and looked at the scene in the distance as he smiled at Luan Yu.
Luan Yu shook her head in surprise. Then, she sighed and said, "I originally thought that after knowing you for so many years, although I admire your strength and cultivation, I also thought that I understood you well enough. I didn't expect you to have so many magic treasures and secret arts. Every time you show them, they amaze me. I didn't expect you to have such a treasure as well, and it has even grown to the Small Perfection stage."
Lu Ping smiled. His hands moved like butterflies flying through flowers, forming several hand seals in an instant. Suddenly, he pointed in the direction of the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd, which was submerged by the sea snakes, and shouted, "Zha!"
The group formed by the hundreds of sea snakes was like a volcanic eruption. A purple brilliance instantly penetrated from the center of the group of snakes, drowning all the snakes in the lightning.
The beautiful colors seemed to bloom with unimaginable brilliance in the dark sea!
The lightning and electricity spread in all directions. Even though Lu Ping and the others were far away from the center of the explosion, the power of the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd still spread. Lu Ping's Meteoric Poison Force suddenly flashed with countless lights. Luan Yu, who was inside Lu Ping's shield, could still feel waves of numbness coming from his body. However, after being weakened by the Meteoric Poison Force, it could no longer cause any harm to Lu Ping and the others.
After Lu Ping refined the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd to the Small Perfection stage, he could completely fuse the seven minor Yin Thunders together to form a major divine ability, the Seven Treasure Yin Thunder. This was Lu Ping's second major divine ability.
When the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd suddenly erupted, hundreds of sea snakes around the Thunder Gourd were almost completely covered by the Thunder Gourd's major divine ability. More than a hundred sea snakes closest to the Thunder Gourd were instantly turned into nothingness under the eruption of the Thunder Gourd's major divine ability. More than a hundred sea snakes were turned into charcoal, and their blood had already turned into nothingness.
Only more than two hundred sea snakes on the outermost periphery escaped the fate of destruction because they didn't squeeze near the Thunder Gourd in the first place. They were all stunned by the power of the Seven Treasure Yin Thunder Gourd. This was also the reason why Lu Ping used the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd to plot against these sea snakes. He wanted to obtain the blood essence of this group of sea snakes, but he didn't want to fight them head-on and waste his Zhen Yuan. After all, the sea of the Fallen Archipelago could be said to be full of danger at every step. Lu Ping needed to ensure that his strength wouldn't be weakened too much, not to mention that he was already injured at the moment.
However, after Lu Ping saw the damage caused by the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd, he unconsciously frowned. Luan Yu saw this and joked, "What's wrong? Are you still not satisfied with such a tyrannical major divine ability?"
Lu Ping looked thoughtful, but he didn't answer. His body moved and immediately moved in the direction of the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd. Luan Yu had no choice but to follow behind him. His protective magical ability was far inferior to Lu Ping's, not to mention staying at the bottom of the sea in such an environment.
Lu Ping arrived in front of the sea snakes and stretched out his hand. The Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd that was submerged in the sea snakes suddenly fell into Lu Ping's hand. After a burst of electric flashes, the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd was still firmly grasped in Lu Ping's hand.
At this time, Luan Yu also saw that something was wrong and asked, "Why does the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd look a little out of control? Is it going to advance to a spiritual magic treasure? But that's not right. Don't you have the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd's spiritual restriction on you? "
Lu Ping shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either, "Don't worry about it. First, collect the sea snakes that haven't been affected. I hope that I can collect enough blood essence from these sea snakes. If it was before, the Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd wouldn't have such great power. At least a hundred sea snakes would be able to retain their blood essence. But now, all of them have been turned into charcoal."
The Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd was thrown by Lu Ping. Suddenly, it shrunk and fell into Lu Ping's chest before disappearing. But Lu Ping's body unconsciously trembled.
Luan Yu found this funny and said, "It seems that your Seven Treasure Thunder Gourd is a bit wrong!"
More than two hundred sea snakes were collected. This time, Luan Yu didn't even need to lift a finger. Countless golden threads suddenly extended from the surface of the Myriad Meteoric Poison Energy Shield. Each thread pierced into a sea snake. A faint blood-red color immediately seeped out of the sea snake's body. It then followed the golden threads back to the Myriad Meteoric Poison Energy Shield.
Soon, the entire golden shield was once again dyed with a faint layer of red. Lu Ping quickly smelted a drop of blood essence and carefully fused it with the blood in his body.
A moment later, Lu Ping's closed eyes suddenly opened and a hint of joy flashed through them. As he had expected, after changing to a different race, the strange blood in Lu Ping's body finally began to fuse with the blood essence of the sea snakes. The pure power of the blood continuously gathered and condensed into Lu Ping's blood, causing Lu Ping's blood to become even more mellow. A faint pressure of blood gradually overflowed from Lu Ping's body. Luan Yu, who was beside Lu Ping, felt the changes in Lu Ping's body and was shocked.
It should be known that the Wood Luan Clan, which Luan Yu belonged to, was also a top-level yao beast in the world of cultivation. Even low-level yao beasts could feel the pressure of blood in their veins. But now, Luan Yu could feel the pressure of blood from Lu Ping's body. Didn't that mean that Lu Ping's bloodline was even more noble than the top-level yao beasts who were known as the direct descendants of the Seventh Patriarch?
It was still the same 108 drops of blood essence. Lu Ping's demand for the blood of this strange sea snake had once again reached a saturation point. The five strange dragons hovered over the surface of the golden core, seemingly very excited. Lu Ping could almost clearly feel the growth of his cultivation and the blood in his body changing in a direction that Lu Ping could not quite understand.
Lu Ping let out a sigh helplessly. Although his cultivation had now increased, this was only a side effect of smelting the blood. The real effect was that Lu Ping's blood could now withstand more Zhen Yuan. In other words, Lu Ping's Zhen Yuan would become more vigorous and pure than it was now. Along with this, the growth of Lu Ping's cultivation in the future would also become more difficult.
In any case, at least for now, it seemed that the benefits were enough to cover up these flaws.
After Lu Ping finished smelting the blood, he once again helped Samling to start smelting the blood. It was still 27 drops of blood essence per person. After Lu Ling 'er finished smelting, she said excitedly, "Father, Ling' er's cultivation is also about to break through. If I can smelt the blood again, I'm afraid I can reach the second level of Core Forging."
Lu Ping smiled and praised Lu Ling 'er. Lu Ling' er happily went to show off to Lu Hai. Naturally, Lu Hai tried his best to suppress her. Not long after, the two went from debating to quarreling. Lu Ping helplessly slapped his forehead. With a wave of his hand, he stuffed the two troublemakers into the Golden House and let the Cyan Luan, who wanted to see the world in chaos, judge.
At this time, Lu Bi also stood up and said, "Father, Bi 'er's cultivation has also reached the peak of the first level of Core Forging!"
