Seeing Tian Qin Laozu's excitement, Lu Ping asked in confusion, "Martial Uncle, what's going on?"
Tian Qin Laozu turned around and said, "I'll tell you in detail later."
After that, Tian Qin Laozu turned to Xiao Yuhuan and asked, "Senior Sister Xiao, did you see that thing with your own eyes?"
Xiao Yuhuan shook her head and said solemnly, "Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, it's most likely the Demon Clan. At that time, it was not only my Free and Unfettered School who saw the corpse, even the fellow daoists of the Heavenly Moon Sect saw it with their own eyes. After that, I reported this matter to Senior Sister Yu Xin. Senior Sister Yu Xin once personally asked Yuwen Luo of the Yuwen Clan about this matter in Fantasy Spirit City. Although that Yuwen Luo did not see the corpse, after hearing Senior Sister Yu Xin's description of the deceased, he also thought that it was very likely that the demon race had appeared. "
Tian Qin Laozu let out a long breath and said, "Yuwen Family's lightning magic is the most effective way to restrain the Demon Clan. Yuwen Family is the vanguard against the Demon Clan every time, so they know the Demon Clan best. Since Yuwen Luo said it was the Demon Clan, then it must be the Demon Clan."
"Not only that," Xiao Yuhuan Laozu continued, "Crystal Palace also met Poison Asura this time!"
"Poison Asura? I've never heard of Poison Asura appearing in the Fallen Archipelago before, and Poison Asura rarely appeared in the past. " Tian Qin Laozu took a breath and said with a bitter smile, "Senior Sister, how many things happened in the Fallen Archipelago this time? Why did both Asura and the Demon Clan appear there, but I, Zhenling, didn't receive any news in the Fantasy Spirit City?"
"These matters have only been spread amongst the eight great sects of the Endless Sea Region and the Crystal Palace. Although our Carefree Sect has been pushed aside by the Crystal Palace, our strength is already sufficient. They would love for our sect to participate in this as well so that we can share their burden. As a result, we have also learnt of this matter. If the other mid-sized sects do not have their own connections, they are probably still in the dark."
Tian Qin Laozu sighed and said softly, "The Shura is bloodthirsty, and the Demon Race devours souls! Senior Sister Xiao, this time, the Myriad Poison Firmament Wall suddenly closed, causing many cultivators to die inside. Is it also because of the Demon Race and Asura Race? "
Lu Ping was somewhat dumbfounded when he heard this. Lu Ping was very clear about the reason why the Myriad Poison Firmament Wall suddenly closed, but he did not expect that Lyra Laozu would actually link this matter with the Demon Race and Asura.
Xiao Yuhuan was also a little stunned, but she still said, "I've never thought about this matter, but after hearing junior sister's reminder, the Fallen Archipelago is a highly toxic place. Could it really be a hiding place for Poison Asura? Why haven't we found any traces of Poison Asura in the Fallen Archipelago for dozens of times?"
Lu Ping felt strange in his heart, but he did not dare to show it on his face. He could only listen to the two Laozu guessing the "truth" of the matter.
After meeting Yu Xin Laozu, the Great Practitioner of the Xiaoyao Sect, and bringing Tian Xiang Laozu's intention to make friends with the Xiaoyao Sect on behalf of Zhenling, Lyra Laozu took Lu Ping back to the Fallen Secret Land.
Along the way, Lyra Laozu looked serious, and Lu Ping followed her silently without saying anything. He was just thinking about the news about Poison Asura and the Demon Race that Xiao Yuhuan Laozu had once told him.
Asura aside, Lu Ping had met Water Asura and Ice Asura in the North Sea, so he had some understanding of the Asura Clan.
However, it was the first time that Lu Ping had heard of the Demon Race, and from the tone of the two Laozu's, Xiao Yuhuan and Lyra, it seemed that the appearance of the Demon Race was a taboo, and the major sects seemed unwilling to publicize the appearance of the Demon Race in the world of cultivation.
On Jing Zhe Island, Tian Xiang Laozu finished listening to Lyra Laozu's experience in the Xiaoyao Sect, and the cave suddenly fell silent. Only the more violent aura around Tian Xiang Laozu revealed that Tian Xiang Laozu's mood at the moment was extremely turbulent.
After a long time, Tian Xiang Laozu finally opened his eyes and said calmly, "Originally, the Old Man wanted to make some more preparations, but I did not expect the situation to deteriorate so quickly. Passing the mid Dharma stage tribulation is imminent."
The Sky Zither elder was taken aback and said, "Uncle-Master, it's better to think twice before you act. The tribulation of the mid Dharma stage is extremely dangerous. Uncle-Master, it's best if you make sure you're fully prepared before you face the tribulation. Now that we have nine Dharma adepts in the Zhen Ling Sect, if we really go all out, even a large sect would be wary of us. I don't think the sects in the North Sea will dare to join forces to suppress our sect. They are not fools, can't they see that Xuan Ling Sect has the support of the Crystal Palace? Doing so will only benefit Xuan Ling Sect. Without our sect to contain them, it would be like inviting a wolf into the house. "
Tian Xiang Laozu shook his head and said, "How can there be any complete preparations? These few years, in order to delay the arrival of the tribulation, I have made more preparations. I have been suppressing my own aura, but now I can't delay it any longer. If the Old Man does not even dare to take this little risk, then he deserves to not be able to pass this tribulation."
Tian Xiang Laozu saw that Tian Xiang Laozu had made up his mind, so he no longer tried to persuade him. However, Tian Xiang Laozu continued to say, "Dao Sheng was so talented and arrogant back then. Could it be that he could not see the purpose of the Crystal Palace and was willing to be the spear of the Crystal Palace in the North Sea?"
Tian Xiang Laozu was puzzled and asked, "Why is that?"
Tian Xiang Laozu said faintly, "They are just using each other. Dao Sheng knows the principle of putting away the good bow when the birds are gone, but he is still willing to be ordered around by the Crystal Palace, just because the Crystal Palace supports Xuan Ling Sect."
Tian Xiang Laozu said with some disdain, "Isn't it because he is driven by benefits? He only sees the benefits in front of him and is short-sighted!"
Tian Xiang Laozu said seriously, "If you only see it this way, then no wonder you can't be the Sect Head Deacon of Zhenling. You are smart enough, but you can't compare to Tian Xiang. In the cultivation world, there is no such thing as a free lunch. The key is to see who has the better means. The Crystal Palace is using Xuan Ling Sect as a tool, and Xuan Ling Sect is also hoping that when the Crystal Palace is ready to cook the dog after the rabbit is dead, Xuan Ling Sect will be strong enough to make the master of the Crystal Palace hesitate to take action. "
Tian Xiang Laozu was surprised and said, "Isn't this taking a risk? How can the Crystal Palace let Xuan Ling Sect become stronger? How can Dao Sheng put Xuan Ling Sect in such a dangerous situation?"
Tian Xiang Laozu shook his head and said, "This is exactly Dao Sheng's brilliance. If there is no external intervention, Xuan Ling Sect's decline is a foregone conclusion. The tribulation of the cultivation world is coming. Xuan Ling Sect and other weak small and medium-sized sects are generally facing the threat of extinction. Even if the sect is not destroyed, I am afraid that what awaits Xuan Ling Sect is thousands of years or even longer. Instead of that, Dao Sheng might as well take a risk when the tribulation begins and take the opportunity to get rid of the control of the Crystal Palace. If he passes the tribulation, Xuan Ling Sect will once again dominate the North Sea, and may even regain the power and influence that Fei Ling Sect had in the past. "
Tian Xiang Laozu listened to Tian Xiang Laozu's explanation and remained silent. Lu Ping, on the other hand, sat cross-legged and listened to the conversation between the two Tian Xiang Laozu. He had a deeper understanding of the deception and deceit of the cultivation world and the law of the jungle.
At this moment, Tian Xiang Laozu suddenly turned to Lu Ping and said, "In seven days, you will follow the Old Man to receive the tribulation of the mid Dharma stage. If the Old Man is unfortunate enough to fall, you will be responsible for bringing the few belongings of the Old Man back to the sect. As for the other belongings, you can have them all!"
Lu Ping was taken aback and was about to decline when Tian Xiang Laozu waved his hand to stop him from speaking. He continued, "I heard that you have done a lot for the sect over the years, but Tian Ling has been holding back from giving you any rewards. I know that Tian Ling has high expectations of you. She is doing this to accumulate all your contributions so that when you are in real trouble, she can use the entire sect to help you."
Lu Ping had never heard of this before and had a shocked expression on his face. Tian Xiang Laozu, however, acted as if he did not see it and continued to say, "Fortunately, your family has not let us down. Not only is your level of practice the best among your peers, your family's business has also been quite successful. You rarely take the initiative to ask for anything from the sect. The Old Man is also returning the favor on behalf of the sect. When the Old Man was at your level of practice, his wealth could not be compared to yours. However, the Old Man has been in the cultivation world for hundreds of years after all. Other than a few treasures of the sect, the rest of the belongings are from the Old Man's collection over the past hundreds of years. Take it all as a reward for your contributions to the sect all these years! "
How much did a Dharma adept, Laozu, have? What's more, he was a mid Dharma adept of a sect. Even if he returned a few of the treasures that the sect had refined using all of its resources to the sect, the remaining items would be enough to make any cultivator in the cultivation world drool.
Tian Qin Laozu looked at Tian Xiang Laozu in shock, but in her heart, she was thinking about how much Lu Ping had contributed to the sect for Tian Xiang Laozu to give him all of his hundreds of years of collection.
Lu Ping, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He hurriedly waved his hands and said, "How can I accept this, how can I accept this, I …"
Tian Xiang Laozu once again interrupted Lu Ping and said with a smile, "You don't have to decline. If the Old Man successfully survives this tribulation, you will naturally not be able to obtain the Old Man's collection. No matter what, this time, the Old Man still has a fifty percent chance of surviving the tribulation."
Lu Ping asked in disbelief, "Only a fifty percent chance?"
But then he thought of something and smiled sheepishly.
Tian Qin Laozu said to Lu Ping angrily, "Fifty percent chance? Do you know what the success rate of a mid Dharma adept is? Less than ten percent! A fifty percent chance is already extremely high! "
Tian Xiang Laozu chuckled and said to Tian Qin Laozu, "His level of practice has not reached this level yet, so it's normal that he doesn't know much about the Dharma stage."
Tian Qin Laozu rolled his eyes at Lu Ping and did not say another word. Lu Ping thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you let Uncle-Master Tian Qin go and protect Uncle-Master when he is going through the tribulation? What if someone tries to do something bad to Uncle-Master when he is going through the tribulation? How can I defend myself with my low level of practice?"
Tian Xiang Laozu and Tian Qin Laozu looked at each other and then Tian Qin Laozu explained with a smile, "When a Dharma adept receives the tribulation, no other Dharma adept will dare to stay within the range of the tribulation. Otherwise, regardless of whether the second adept is willing or not, his tribulation will automatically descend. Hence, when a Dharma adept is going through the tribulation, other Dharma adepts will not dare to go near, and the threat of other Core Forging adepts will naturally not be taken into consideration."
