The appearance of the Spiritual Demonic Peaches had obviously moved Celestial Phenomenon Laozu greatly. However, Celestial Phenomenon Laozu had experienced hundreds of years of trials and tribulations after all. His Dao Heart had long been tempered to an incomparably firm state. After seeing the three Spiritual Demonic Peaches, Celestial Phenomenon Laozu quickly chuckled and said, "Do you really want to give these three Spiritual Demonic Peaches to the Old Man? You have to know that in the cultivation world, the Spiritual Demonic Fruit has always been a treasure that can only be found by luck. Moreover, every kind of Spiritual Demonic Fruit is a necessary item to refine pills that strengthen the body. If the Old Man uses it now, when you reach the level of the Old Man in the future, there may not be such a Spiritual Demonic Fruit to appear again! "
Lu Ping looked at the big teardrop hanging at the bottom of the dark cloud. Seeing that Celestial Phenomenon Laozu didn't seem to care and was still asking for Lu Ping's opinion, Lu Ping couldn't help but say anxiously, "Martial Granduncle, the lightning tribulation is right in front of you. You should deal with it first. As for the Spiritual Demonic Peaches, although they are rare, they are after all worldly possessions. If Martial Granduncle becomes a great cultivator, won't there be any benefits for your disciple?"
Celestial Phenomenon Laozu looked deeply at Lu Ping, suddenly threw his head back and laughed loudly, "Alright, let the Old Man also fight for the sake of the Old Man's life for our sect!"
Celestial Phenomenon Laozu first put the Instant Yuan Pill into his abdomen. A huge aura suddenly surged out with Celestial Phenomenon Laozu's body as the center.
Lu Ping, who was standing hundreds of feet away, was affected by this aura. Even though Lu Ping tried his best to resist, he still couldn't help but retreat several feet into the sea behind him. The sea surface was stomped by Lu Ping's retreating footsteps, creating several waves.
Lu Ping was extremely shocked. It was only at this moment that Lu Ping had a more direct understanding of the true power of a Dharma Phase cultivator. Just the aura that overflowed from the recovery of the vital essence was enough to make Lu Ping lose control of his own body in that instant.
Lu Ping knew that this was the result of the Instant Essence Pill instantly restoring the True Essence within the cultivator's body.
Lu Ping had heard of the Instant Essence Pellet when he was learning the art of alchemy from the Forsaken Sky Cauldron Grand Ancestor. In alchemy, the Instant Essence Pellet was first created to harm others.
If a cultivator below the Core Forging stage were to mistakenly consume this pill, the cultivator's body would be unable to withstand the sudden influx of True Essence due to the blood vessels in their bodies being unable to withstand the sudden influx of True Essence. In an instant, the cultivator who consumed the pill would explode due to the sudden increase in True Essence.
Not only the cultivators below the Core Forging stage, but also some cultivators who had barely reached the Dharma Phase through external secret techniques, even if they did not explode and die after consuming the pill by mistake, there were cases where the core space in the heart was destroyed by the huge amount of vital essence.
Therefore, when the Flash Yuan Dan first appeared in the world of cultivation, it earned a very loud and evil name. It was called the "Instant Explosion Dan."
From the appearance of the Instant Yuan Pill, it was very similar to other elixirs used to restore vital essence. Generally, alchemists who were below the master level, if their cultivation had not reached the middle stage of the Core Forging stage and they did not have one or two rare elixir appraisal techniques in the alchemy world, it was generally difficult to distinguish the Instant Yuan Pill from the ordinary elixirs like the Spirit Recovery Pill and the like.
This was already the case for alchemists, let alone other cultivators!
Alchemists relied on their huge Divine Will and other secret techniques that could only be mastered by grandmaster alchemists. Naturally, they could distinguish the elixirs from the ordinary elixirs.
Lu Ping had once learned the elixir appraisal technique from Tianwu Laozu when he asked for the Purple Crystal Royal Jelly from him. Thus, when Tianwu Laozu took out the Instant Yuan Pill, Lu Ping also recognized this famous elixir.
After that, when a Dharma adept was about to receive his own calamity and was preparing to break through to the middle Dharma stage, in a panic, he mistakenly consumed the Instant Yuan Pill as a elixir used to restore vital essence.
Just as the Dharma Adept was about to close his eyes and await his death from the sudden explosion of the inner Yuan in his veins, an unparalleled amount of inner Yuan that was under the Adept's control instantly filled the cultivator's veins. The self-destruction that the Adept had imagined did not happen.
Overjoyed, this Laozu did not bother to check what was going on and hurriedly focused all his energy on dealing with the lightning tribulation. The lightning tribulation, which was originally hopeless, had been overcome by this Laozu in one fell swoop and became a mid Dharma adept.
After that, the Elder Ancestor took another Instant Explosion Elixir. Only then did he realize that for Dharma adepts, the instantaneous explosion of inner Yuan from the Instant Explosion Elixir was the best medicine for Dharma adepts to recover their inner Yuan. Hence, the Instant Explosion Elixir was also known as the "Instant Yuan Elixir" and was only used by Dharma adepts.
It was just that although the Instant Yuan Pill had the effect of instantly restoring the vital essence of a Dharma adept, the vital essence that it exploded out was after all not formed by the adept's own body bit by bit. Furthermore, it was too violent. Every pill that was consumed was a form of damage to the adept's veins.
Hence, it was fine to consume one or two of these elixirs. For a Dharma adept's remarkable level of practice, it would only take a few days for him to recover. However, for Celestial Phenomenon Laozu to consume six Instant Yuan Pills in one go was undoubtedly an act of harming oneself. Even if Celestial Phenomenon Laozu survived the lightning tribulation of the mid Dharma stage and became a Great Dharma adept, the damage to the veins in his body would be too severe and would not be able to support his level of practice any further.
Just as Lu Ping was using his own vital essence to resist the terrifying aura emanating from Celestial Phenomenon Laozu's body, a small portion of the mysterious Qi that surrounded Celestial Phenomenon Laozu took the opportunity to break free from his restraints. Following the path of Celestial Phenomenon Laozu's terrifying aura, it attacked Lu Ping's body.
This mysterious Qi was the Pure Yang Qi that was formed from the lightning tribulation. When Lu Ping used all his strength to resist the impact of the aura, causing his vital essence to leak out, this Pure Yang Qi followed Lu Ping's vital essence and invaded his veins.
In an instant, Lu Ping's vital essence arrived, and a warm and gentle aura flowed through his veins towards his heart core.
Everywhere the Pure Yang Qi passed by, Lu Ping felt an indescribable sense of comfort engulfing his entire body. He felt as though he was floating in the air, and as the pure Yang Qi passed by, Lu Ping felt as though an indescribable type of true energy was born in his veins. This type of true energy contained an unfathomable might, allowing Lu Ping's cultivation base to instantly rise to a height where he could look down on all living beings in the cultivation world.
The Pure Yang Qi got closer and closer to Lu Ping's heart core. Lu Ping had a feeling that as long as he allowed this Pure Yang Qi to remain in his heart core, he would immediately be able to welcome the opportunity to break through to the next level.
This, could this be the great opportunity that Celestial Phenomenon Laozu had repeatedly mentioned?!
The Pure Yang Qi flowed through all the veins in his body and slowly approached his heart core from all directions. However, deep down, Lu Ping felt that this opportunity seemed to have arrived too easily.
The Pure Yang Qi flowed through his veins and into his heart core, finally bombarding Lu Ping's heart core.
With a "boom", Lu Ping's heart core suddenly shook, and Lu Ping suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. The Jindan floating in the middle of his heart space suddenly began to beat violently.
The White Jade Lotus, which was located below the Jindan, suddenly shone brightly the moment the Jindan beat. The twelve Genchen Pearls emitted five-colored rays of light, revolving around the Jindan even more vigorously.
"Dong, dong, dong …"
From the very beginning, the Jindan's beating frequency matched the beating of his heart. A loud heartbeat rang out from Lu Ping's body like a huge bell, directly pouring into Lu Ping's divine sense. For a moment, Lu Ping felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
As the Jindan kept shaking in his heart core, the six strange dragons, which were originally lazy on the surface of the Jindan, suddenly shook. Then, with extreme anger, they raised their heads to the sky and let out a long cry that only Lu Ping could hear. Then, the six strange dragons quickly hovered on the surface of Lu Ping's Jindan. Waves of anxiety and fear were transmitted directly into Lu Ping's divine sense through the long cry and into Lu Ping's ears.
All of a sudden, Lu Ping felt as if he had just woken up from a long dream. When he woke up, he was immediately surrounded by a burning pain all over his body.
Bean-sized beads of sweat had already seeped out of Lu Ping's forehead. His clothes had long been soaked in water. Bursts of tearing pain came from his divine sense.
Enduring the pain, Lu Ping used all of his divine sense to check his body. In an instant, he was so frightened by the situation in his body that his face turned pale!
Unknowingly, invisible flames had been ignited in Lu Ping's blood vessels!
This kind of flame did not cause any harm to Lu Ping's blood vessels. However, it used the True Essence contained in Lu Ping's blood vessels as fuel. Unknowingly, the True Essence condensed in Lu Ping's blood vessels had been burned into nothingness. The invisible flames also burned along the blood vessels to the periphery of the heart core space. When it intended to penetrate into the heart core space, the Jindan, which felt a fatal threat, finally struggled to break free from the illusion of Lu Ping.
The "North Sea Wave Listening Method" that Lu Ping cultivated was an extremely mysterious water attribute cultivation method. The water attribute True Essence cultivated by this cultivation method was far purer and richer than cultivators of the same level. This was a cultivation method that had an extremely strong restraining effect on any fire attribute cultivation method or even fire attribute spiritual objects.
Especially after Lu Ping fused with the Xuanyuan Heavy Water, this function of Lu Ping's cultivation method appeared to be even more tyrannical. Even without Lyra Laozu's knowledge, Lu Ping had secretly compared it with the seven-colored flame that Lyra Laozu had sent out. Even though Lu Ping had spent a great deal of effort to finally annihilate this flame that did not have the support of Lyra Laozu's True Essence, this was after all a spiritual fire that had barely reached the power of a mid-grade Heaven Stage spiritual fire. However, Lu Ping's True Essence had an extremely obvious restraining effect on this inferior spiritual fire.
However, at this moment, the True Essence remaining in Lu Ping's blood vessels had been burned to nothing by this mysterious invisible fire. How could this not make Lu Ping feel horrified!
Lu Ping had cultivated for nearly a hundred years and had experienced life and death several times. However, this time, he truly felt the call of death!
However, what Lu Ping did not know when he was just charmed by this invisible fire was that it was not that Lu Ping's True Essence did not have a restraining effect on this invisible fire, but that this restraining effect was much smaller than the seven-colored flame. Fortunately, Lu Ping's True Essence was far different from ordinary people. Otherwise, before Lu Ping could wake up, the invisible fire would have long burned into the core space.
In a state of shock, Lu Ping used all his strength to stimulate the True Essence in his body. However, his blood vessels were empty. Where was there any True Essence?
Bursts of burning pain came from the core space, and the Jindan in the space throbbed even more violently.
In a state of shock and anger, Lu Ping could not care less. The "North Sea Wave Listening Technique" was instantly reversed, and a secret technique was immediately displayed by Lu Ping. The Jindan trembled violently, and the six strange dragons opened their mouths at the same time. Six streams of Origin Blood Mist were spat out, diffusing around the Jindan. Then, they turned into waves of extremely pure blue-red True Essence. They suddenly penetrated through the core space and forced the Pure Yang Qi that was approaching the core space out of his heart in one fell swoop.
Lu Ping took the opportunity to take a deep breath. Ignoring his pale face, the six strange dragons in the core space once again spat out six streams of Origin Blood Mist. After they seeped out of the core space, they converged with the previous True Essence and surrounded the invisible flame formed by the Pure Yang Qi. After taking turns to attack the flame, in just a moment, the flame was finally annihilated by Lu Ping's purest Yuan Qi in the Jindan.
However, before Lu Ping could feel happy, the invisible flame gathered from the other blood vessels had also approached the core space.
Lu Ping looked at the remaining eleven flames gathering aggressively. Lu Ping did not have time to smile bitterly and be depressed. The six strange dragons spat out six streams of Origin Blood Mist for the third time. Lu Ping's pale face had already turned gray. The blood mist turned into True Essence, but it only had time to form a True Essence barrier around the core space with the previous True Essence source.
Although this barrier had temporarily withstood the attack of the eleven invisible flames, it was only a matter of time before it was broken.
Looking at the six strange dragons on the surface of the Jindan, which had already become weak, Lu Ping felt that if he spat out the Origin Blood Mist again, even if it did not damage Lu Ping's extremely solid foundation, it was very likely that Lu Ping's cultivation would drop from the sixth stage of the Core Forging Stage to the fifth stage at the cost of killing one of the strange dragons.
Just when Lu Ping was at a loss of what to do and was ready to stake everything on the Fallen Monster Jiao Dragon, countless runes suddenly flashed on the surface of the Ninth Grade White Jade Lotus floating below the golden core. Countless indistinct True Essence threads shot out from the surface of the White Jade Lotus, complementing the five-colored light emitted by the twelve Origin Chen Beads. At the same time, the True Essence threads intertwined with the golden core to form a huge three-dimensional array formation.
Lu Ping was pleasantly surprised when he saw this. Lu Ping's Genchen Great Array had already been refined with the twelve Genchen beads and the Grade-9 White Jade Lotus had been refined into an array diagram. However, for some unknown reason, Lu Ping was unable to connect this set of Great Array.
When Lu Ping used it, the Genchen beads could still only be used by themselves, and the Grade-9 White Jade Lotus could only be used by Lu Ping as an excellent defensive magic treasure.
However, at the moment when Lu Ping's life was at stake, the two suddenly connected smoothly. The Genchen Great Array was completed!
After the Genchen Great Array was successfully connected, the magic treasure that Lu Ping had been searching for for many years finally took shape. The Twelve Genchen beads and the Grade-9 White Jade Lotus, which had been nurtured by Lu Ping for many years, suddenly released a trickle of pure True Essence.
This True Essence was all condensed by Lu Ping himself over the past few decades. As the True Essence gathered towards the Gold Core, it was also constantly condensing. In the end, it turned into tiny wisps of blood mist that were sucked into the stomachs of the six strange dragons. The originally dim Gold Core finally shone with a dazzling golden light once again.
Outside the core space, the source barrier that was on the verge of collapse due to the remaining eleven invisible flames was on the verge of collapse. The moment the Great Array was formed, the projection of the Great Genchen Great Array suddenly appeared inside the barrier.
Strong True Essence seeped out of the core space and supported the barrier. With the support of the projection of the Great Array, Lu Ping finally completely blocked the eleven invisible flames outside the core space.
Finally relieved of the crisis, Lu Ping's life was temporarily spared. If he couldn't completely refine or expel the eleven invisible flames, then Lu Ping's cultivation could only be trapped in the core space. In this way, there was no difference between Lu Ping's cultivation being completely destroyed.
After receiving the True Essence from the Great Array, Lu Ping once again made up his mind to take a risk. Six wisps of blood mist once again seeped out of the Gold Core and moved towards the barrier formed by the Genchen Great Array outside the core space.
While Lu Ping's heart trembled in fear, the sixth strange jiao that had just formed on the Fallen Islands flickered. It was just a hair's breadth away from disappearing. Then, the strange jiao withered and hid in a corner of the golden core, motionless. It was as if the slightest touch would cause the illusory strange jiao to vanish into thin air.
Seeing that the sixth strange dragon hadn't disappeared, Lu Ping let out a long sigh of relief. His Core Forging Stage Sixth Layer cultivation was finally preserved.
However, with the support of this mouthful of primordial blood mist condensed from the essence of Xuanyuan Heavy Water, the small natal primordial formation that was formed outside the core space finally had enough energy to separate one of the invisible flames from the other eleven.
Then, a petal on the white jade lotus in the core space suddenly flashed with a ray of light. The lotus projection in the small Genchen Great Array also flashed.
At the same time, the three Origin Time Beads formed a triangle, surrounding the isolated formless flame in the middle. The five-coloured light emitted by the three Origin Time Beads firmly enveloped the formless flame. By the time the light dissipated, the formless flame had already disappeared without a trace.
Overjoyed, Lu Ping used the same method to refine the other invisible flames one by one. When the last flame was refined, Lu Ping could finally relax.
After Lu Ping retracted the origin barrier around his heart core space, the previously assembled origin barrier didn't turn back into a blood mist and return to his Golden Core. Instead, it turned into 13 equal portions of origin primordial essence that fused with the 12 Origin Chen Beads and the White Jade Lotus.
Just when Lu Ping was a little puzzled, a small gourd suddenly sprang out from a secluded corner of the core space.
The gourd rotated in the air above the thirteen sources of true essence, and a wisp of invisible yet substantial aura emerged from each of the thirteen sources of true essence. The aura then disappeared into the mouth of the gourd, and the gourd immediately fled into the core space.
