Lu Ping looked at Celestial Phenomenon Laozu who was sitting in the seat of honor. He didn't know why the usually dignified Celestial Phenomenon Laozu would reveal such a cunning side in front of a junior like him.
However, since the person with the highest status in the Zhenling Sect said such words, Lu Ping naturally couldn't remain silent.
Just as Lu Ping was thinking about what to take out, the Laozu in the Profound Ice Temple also looked at him with a smile, as if to test him. Only Daoist Xuan Ju and Daoist Xuan Chen were surprised to see Lu Ping. They didn't know why the relationship between the Laozu and Lu Ping was so 'close'.
When Lu Ping raised his head, he inadvertently glanced at the Laozu sitting in the seat of honor. The expressions on the Laozu's faces immediately entered Lu Ping's eyes. Lu Ping suddenly understood. He rummaged through his storage ring and took out a purple jade slip, saying, "This disciple thought about it and decided to give this Minor Forging Spirit Pill to the Sect. However, the refinement process of this Minor Forging Spirit Pill is quite complicated. The quality of the spirit grass used is only a grade lower than the real Spirit Forging Pill. However, the effect is only a quarter of the original. If we refine a small amount, it will be fine, but if we refine too much, it will affect our three thousand year old spirit grass reserves."
When the Laozu saw Lu Ping take out the Minor Forging Spirit Pill, their faces were filled with gratification. However, when they heard Lu Ping's explanation, they felt helpless. Lu Ping was now an Alchemist Grandmaster. Since he said that the gains would not make up for the losses, everyone naturally believed him.
Tianlu Laozu said, "Let me see the pill first."
Lu Ping handed the recipe to the Fornax Cauldron Ancestor. The Fornax Cauldron Ancestor held the jade scroll in his hand and carefully read the contents with his divine sense. After a long time, he said, "Not bad. If this medicinal pellet is refined, the effect will only be a quarter of the real Spirit Forging Pellet's effect. But the spirit herbs used are worth three-fourths of the real Spirit Forging Pellet. Although the loss outweighs the gain, for our sect, if we can help the disciples who are just a step away from condensing a Seventh Grade Golden Core to condense a high-grade Golden Core, it will be worth it even if we waste the spirit herbs."
Tianlu Laozu also looked at the jade slip and said, "Brother Tianlu is right. Among our Sect's ninth layer disciples who have yet to condense a Golden Core, Xuan Shu has the highest chance of condensing a seventh grade Golden Core. However, it will take another thirty years or even longer. If we have the Minor Forging Spirit Pill, then we can save a few decades of time."
When Lu Ping heard Daoist Xuan Shu's name, he felt a burst of displeasure in his heart. However, he was not someone who did not see the bigger picture, so he only felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Tianlu Laozu continued, "In addition, I heard that Xuan Huo and Xuan Sen already have heaven-class spirit items. With this Minor Forging Spirit Pill, it will save them fifty years of cultivation time. However, Xuan Yan, Xuan Xu, Xuan Ju, and Xuan Chen are all eighth or ninth layer Core Forging Stage cultivators, but compared to Xuan Huo and Xuan Sen, your accumulations are a level lower. If you want to condense a seventh grade Golden Core, you will have to put in more effort and have more opportunities."
Daoist Xuan Ju's expression was a bit bitter. However, Daoist Xuan Chen, whose cultivation was lower than hers, was much calmer. Daoist Xuan Chen did not have much hope of breaking through to the Dharma Manifestation Stage. Daoist Xuan Ju obviously wanted to give it a try, but she herself was not very confident in her cultivation foundation.
In fact, Lu Ping wasn't too concerned about the Little Forging Spirit Pellet's recipe because he had obtained the Hundred Flower Dew Dew from Long Huai in the Fallen Planet. The effect of this medicinal solution was very similar to the Life Dew Dew, but its effect was twice as strong. If Lu Ping used the Hundred Flower Dew Dew Dew instead of the Life Dew Dew, and with the inspiration he gained from the half of the Spirit Forging Pellet's recipe, it was entirely possible for the new Little Forging Spirit Pellet to be half as effective as the real Spirit Forging Pellet.
Lu Ping stayed in the Profound Ice Palace for another two days before returning to Heaven's Spirit Mountain through the teleportation formation on Frost Island with a slightly depressed expression.
Lu Ping originally wanted to take the batch of rare items that Tian Fan Laozu had found in the ruins. However, when Lu Ping excitedly went to the secret room that Tian Fan Laozu had opened in the Profound Ice Palace to store the rare items, something unexpected happened.
There were as many as 12 types of heaven and earth treasures in this batch, 17 in total, and Lu Ping recognized most of them. Originally, there were seven or eight types of heaven and earth treasures in this batch, but most of them were below mid-grade and low-grade earth-rank. Naturally, Lu Ping wouldn't be interested in them.
Just as Lu Ping took out the Thunder Seven Treasures Calabash from his core space and prepared to swallow the seven that had yet to be smelted into the calabash, Lu Ping clearly felt a kind of resistance from the Thunder Seven Treasures Calabash.
Lu Ping looked at the Thunder Gourd in his palm in bewilderment. Once again, he couldn't help but feel that the Thunder Gourd that was once known as the number one divine artifact in the cultivation world wasn't something that could be easily forged.
Lu Ping sighed helplessly. Just as he was about to put away the Thunder Seven Treasures Calabash, the Thunder Seven Treasures Calabash floated up by itself and took one of the twelve kinds of rare items that Lu Ping did not recognize into the calabash. Then the Thunder Calabash began to shake as if it was drunk. Electric sparks constantly emerged from the Thunder Calabash. Lu Ping hurriedly put the Thunder Calabash into his core space and used his own Zhen Yuan to help the Thunder Calabash smelt the ice attribute rare item.
Looking at the remaining eleven types of mystical items, Lu Ping thought for a moment. Since Tian Myriad Ancestor had already said that he could choose freely, he picked an ice-elemental mystical item for Lu Linger, three water-elemental mystical items for Lu Hai and Lu Dagui, one wind-elemental mystical item for Lu Bi, and two earth-elemental mystical items for Dabao.
Looking at the remaining nine kinds of rare items, Lu Ping chose a wood attribute rare item from them. This was to be given to Hu Lili to refine her protective aura qi.
Just as Lu Ping was about to go out, he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and took the only mid-grade earth-step wind attribute rare item from the nine heaven and earth spirit items. This was prepared for Lu Bi to advance to the Middle-stage Core Forging Realm in the future. Lu Linger already had the mid-grade earth-step ice attribute rare item from Ao Wushuang. Lu Hai had three Azure Billow Water. Although it was only low-grade earth-step, the three were fused well. It was not much worse than fusing a mid-grade earth-step Spirit Water of Heaven and Earth.
Since he had already taken it, it was still the same to take one or two. Why not take all of them?
Dabao already had two high-grade earth-step Black Jade Stone. Only the Spirit Water of Heaven and Earth needed for Lu Dagui to advance to the Middle-stage Core Forging Realm in the future.
Lu Ping looked at the remaining few rare items. Coincidentally, there was a low-grade earth-step Black Jade Stone. Although this kind of spirit water was not too special, it was still rare in the cultivation world. Da Gui's aptitude was only above average, but it was solid. When he advanced to the Middle-stage Core Forging Realm, it would not be too difficult for him to refine a low-grade earth-step Spirit item. Moreover, he had mastered more than half of the Spirit Forging Pill's recipe, and he had improved the Minor Spirit Forging Pill in hand. Da Gui would have no difficulty refining a low-grade earth-step Spirit item.
After returning to Zhenling, the first thing Lu Ping did was naturally to go to Chong Hua Palace to congratulate his teacher for taking the position of the first sect master of Zhenling.
In Chong Hua Palace, when Lu Ping saw his teacher, Liu Tianling Laozu was in the middle of a discussion with Li Xuanru.
After becoming the sect master of Zhenling, Liu Tianling Laozu's temperament became more and more dignified, and his aura also became more and more vigorous. The dignified bearing of the sect master of the number one sect in the North Sea had already begun to take shape.
When Liu Tianling Laozu saw Lu Ping coming in to greet him, he said, "I heard that you've become famous again this time, and you actually stepped on Zhang Xiyi's shoulders?"
Lu Ping looked at his teacher's expression that seemed like a smile that wasn't a smile, and couldn't figure out what his teacher was thinking, so he looked towards his second senior sister, Li Xuanru.
When Liu Tianling Laozu saw Lu Ping looking around, he scolded him in annoyance, "Don't think about it anymore. You killed Shui Wuhuan until her body and soul were completely destroyed, and you're on par with Zhang Xiyi. Right now, your title of 'Water Sword Immortal' is even greater than many late stage Core Forging cultivators who have cultivated for hundreds of years. Aren't you afraid that the beam that stands out will be the first to rot? Who knows how many cultivators from the various sects in the North Sea want to kill you! "
Lu Ping chuckled, "You're right, teacher. However, if it's a face-to-face competition, as long as it's not Laozu's who are bored enough to make a move on me, I'm not afraid of other people. However, if they want to use underhanded methods, such as ambushing, besieging, or assassinating me, I can't guarantee it."
Liu Tianling Laozu sneered and threw a token to Lu Ping. He said, "At least you have some self-awareness. This token is the token to open the Jade Cave Paradise, the inheritance land of our sect, which is second only to the True Spirit Paradise. Seeing that you've broken through to the late stage Core Forging stage, it seems that you haven't had the time to refine the seventh layer of protective aura. Go inside and see if you can find a suitable water attribute item. Also, there is a Spirit Nurturing Artifact in the Jade Cave Paradise that your grandmaster left behind after he passed away. I wasn't able to inherit it back then. Although your senior sister's cultivation has reached the required level, she doesn't have the strength to retrieve that artifact. Go take a look, don't let your grandmaster's artifact be covered in dust. "
Lu Ping solemnly received the token from his teacher. After thanking him, he hesitated for a moment before saying, "Teacher, our sect needs the consent of the three Laozu's to open the inheritance land. Right now, Martial Uncle Tian Qin is guarding Huang Li Island, Martial Uncle Tian Kang is at Universe Island, and the others are at Frost Island. Only Martial Uncle Guo is on the mountain, so I can't enter the Jade Cave Paradise now."
Second Senior Sister, Reverend Li Xuan Ru, smiled and said, "Junior Brother, you've forgotten again. Teacher is now the sect master of our sect. Except for the Zhenling Paradise, which is related to the foundation of our sect and requires the consent of all the Laozu's to open, Teacher can decide all the other inheritance lands or grottoes!"
Lu Ping hurriedly slapped his forehead and said, "I forgot about that!"
However, he was secretly happy. It seemed that Teacher did have a lot of power as the sect master. As a disciple, he was the first to enjoy the benefits. It seemed that he would have to follow Teacher's path in the future.
