After arranging everything on Huang Li Island, he sent voice transmissions to several of his good friends, asking them to take care of Huang Li Island while he was away. Then, he said to Hu Lili, "I've already discussed it with Martial Uncle Guo Tianshan. When you advance to the mid-stage Core Forging Realm, you can invite him to Huang Li Island to use the 'Art of Moving and Filling the Sea' again to expand Huang Li Island. Currently, Huang Li Island has a circumference of 20 to 30 li, but it's still considered a small island. This time, we must expand it to a small island with a circumference of more than 50 li."
Hu Lili asked worriedly, "Do you really have to go to the Central Plains?"
Lu Ping smiled and said, "I'm really in a hurry this time. This time, I found an opportunity, but it's not just me. If I want to go to the Central Plains before others, I have to go to the Central Plains. Moreover, going to the Central Plains' cultivation world has always been my wish. I want to go to that place that is said to represent the highest level of cultivation in the cultivation world. After all, the North Sea is still too small."
Hu Lili sighed sadly and said, "It's a pity that I'm not strong enough. I can't help you much."
"Why can't you help me?"
Lu Ping said seriously, "Huang Li Island is my foundation. It can even be said that it's a way out for myself. You've worked so hard to manage it all these years. This is a great help to me."
Hu Lili was a shrewd person after all. A hint of sadness flashed through her eyes. She thought for a moment and said, "Don't forget about those two brats. That Wang Qi was sent to chop firewood at the back of Tian Ling Mountain. It's said that he was tortured by Du Feng. Now, he's following Du Feng to hunt demonic beasts overseas. That Tian Yue, whom you placed in the Pill Pavilion, is said to be a talented fourth generation alchemist. He's highly regarded by the Pill Pavilion's new alchemist, Master Xuan Fang."
Hu Lili paused for a moment before continuing, "There are also five other disciples who have seen you practice. I heard that their cultivations aren't low either. They have all advanced to the late Blood Condensation Realm and were accepted by the sect's Core Forging Realm's third generation disciples. They are considered the best among the fourth generation disciples."
When Hu Lili saw Lu Ping's nonchalant expression, she couldn't help but agitate him, "I see that all your hard work has gone to someone else. Forget about those five disciples, but that Wang Qi, Junior Brother Du Feng has come to me several times to ask if you still want to accept him as your disciple. If you don't accept him, he will accept him. You should know that Wang Qi cultivates the metal element sword technique, which is very compatible with Junior Brother Du Feng's sword technique. Junior Brother Du Feng is a man of few words, but he has asked me several times. It seems like he really wants to accept Wang Qi."
Lu Ping replied nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Senior Brother Du won't accept him as a disciple. He's just trying to provoke me, just like you, to make me accept Wang Qi as a disciple as soon as possible."
"Then why did you …"
"Hehe, swordsmanship isn't something that can be learned by following seniors, and it can't be trained by killing beasts either. Why are sword cultivators known as the best in the cultivation world? It's because swordsmanship requires the most spirituality! How do you make your swordsmanship, flying swords, and divine arts linked to the spirit? What is the spirit of all living things in this world? These are all things that a true sword cultivator should consider. After all, the path of a sword cultivator has to rely on oneself to succeed. "
Lu Ping paused for a moment, then said, "Tell Wang Qi what I said, then ask him to go to the East Sea's Soundwave Island and find Chi Lianying. Tell him that I told him to come to the East Sea to train and practice his swordsmanship!"
Hu Lili blinked her eyes. Although she was not a sword cultivator, she had been with Lu Ping for a long time, so she had some understanding of swordsmanship. After a moment of hesitation, she asked, "You're not asking him to kill people, are you?"
"Which sword cultivator doesn't kill people like flies?" Lu Ping paused for a moment, then said, "I just want to see if he can walk this path."
"What about Tian Yue?"
"That kid has my token, who in the entire Elixir Pavilion would dare to take him as a disciple? Who would dare to make things difficult for him? "
After a pause, Lu Ping added, "Even the Fornax and Tianqin Laozu wouldn't dare!"
Although Hu Lili was surprised by Lu Ping's words, she did not know that her dao companion was now the third alchemist in Zhenling, so she continued, "But you really should take in a disciple or two. Previously, when Junior Brother Zhang Xuancheng visited Huang Li Island, he would always bring Uncle-Master Xuanyuan's message urging you to take in a disciple. Now, among the third generation disciples in the sect, your cultivation is the highest, your strength is the most profound, and you are the most famous, but you don't have a single disciple. If this goes on for too long, I'm afraid Uncle-Master Liu Tianling will also blame you."
Lu Ping was stunned for a moment, only then did he remember what his master said when he saw the Cloudy Light Multicolored Robe in the True Spirit Palace that day. Taking the Cloudy Light Multicolored Robe as the inheritance of Zhong Hua Lineage, to protect the future disciples. Wasn't this also hinting that he should take in a disciple to inherit his legacy?
"It seems that I really should take in a few disciples, but it's not that easy to become my disciple."
Seeing that Lu Ping had this thought, Hu Lili no longer urged him, but instead said, "With your current identity and status, you naturally have to be very careful when taking in disciples."
After saying goodbye to Hu Lili, who was standing in front of the cave residence to send him off, Lu Ping could not help but look back. With his magical vision, he could naturally see that Hu Lili was still looking at him from the entrance of the cave residence. Lu Ping sighed in his heart and thought to himself, "It seems that she's going to have a baby. It's not good to leave her alone to look after the house like this."
Hundreds of miles below the sea surface outside of Huan Yu Island, after the teleportation array incident with Ao Yu, this place was occupied by the Monster Clan. Although the cultivators of the North Sea organized several attacks on the Monster Clan, and although the Monster Clan suffered heavy casualties, they still firmly occupied this area of the sea.
The various sects of the North Sea also suspected that the Monster Clan had discovered some secret in this area, and there were even human Dharma adepts who sneaked in to investigate, but in the end, they found nothing. Although the various sects were puzzled, they could only send people to monitor and report immediately if anything happened.
The Jade Water Moon Pearl, the Ocean Crossing Boat, the Colorful Cloudlight Robe, the stone armor, and on top of that, Lu Ping's exquisite water-based cultivation method, if he wanted to sneak into the sea, even early Dharma adepts would find it difficult to find him.
"Brother Zhang, do you know why we are stationed here? This place is so close to the human territory, and we are often attacked by the human race. Countless of our brothers have died, but we have never seen a mountain of gold or silver here. "
"Pfft, Brother Wu, you're really funny. Even if there is a mountain of gold or silver, you want it? That's just a common thing for mortals, what use do we have for it? "
"I just don't understand. What do you think there is in this place? We are a lone army in deep waters, and every time we rely on the lives of our brothers to barely defend this part of the sea. I don't know who came up with such a bad idea. If I, Wu Shan, become Laozu, I will definitely have a talk with him! "
"You? Brother Wu, it's not that I want to discourage you, but the one who came up with this idea was Ao Yu of the Ice Dragon clan. Let's not talk about whether you can become a Dharma adept, even if you become Laozu, would you dare to find trouble with that guy Ao Yu? He has already condensed a high-level Golden Elixir, and it is said that he has already broken through to the Dharma stage. By the time you become a Dharma adept, he will probably have already passed the tribulation and reached the mid Dharma stage. Even if he can't reach it, Brother Wu, at the same level, would you be a match for the Ice Dragon clan? "
"Hmph, what's so great about that? Ao Yu still says that his clan is a top demon clan, but he is not alone. The Ice Dragon clan is about to be wiped out by him."
"Brother Wu, don't talk nonsense. Ao Yu is now a popular person in front of all the Laozu, but it's just a suggestion from him, and we brothers are going to defend this part of the sea with our lives. Isn't that enough to explain the problem?"
"Hey, speaking of which, you really don't know why we are guarding this place?"
"Who knows? There are rumors that there are ancient relics hidden here, and the relics are about to be unearthed. There are also rumors that the Earth Meridians here are special, and there may be a time when a large spiritual meridian will be born, and so on. In short, these rumors are everywhere. But as you can see, there are at least two Laozu leading us to guard this place. Although there are always changes, there are two Laozu, one in the mid Dharma stage, and the other in the early Laozu stage. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?"
…
Behind the two patrolling Core Forging demon cultivators, an invisible stream of water flowed for a moment, then disappeared.
Lu Ping avoided the eyes and ears of the demon clan guarding this area, and slowly approached the underwater mountain range where he had discovered the Clear Stream Cave Abode. Many years had passed, and although the cave at the entrance of the Clear Stream Cave Abode was well-hidden, he didn't know if the demon clan had already discovered it.
Lu Ping remembered that the demon clan had secretly set up camp here because he had helped Yin Xuanchu escape the sect's pursuit and wanted to use the Clear Stream Cave Abode's transportation formation to go to the Middle Lands. Unexpectedly, he ran into the demon clan's hiding place, and had no choice but to give up on the trip to the Middle Lands.
He had thought that after the various sects of the North Sea discovered that the demon clan was stationed here, they would definitely sweep through the demon clan with lightning speed. This place was too close to Universe Island, and how could they allow outsiders to sleep next to their bed? Unexpectedly, after several years, the North Sea demon clan still firmly occupied this part of the sea.
Ao Yu was from the Ice Dragon clan, and the Ice Dragon clan had an inheritance pearl. Could there really be some secret buried here?
Lu Ping had his suspicions, but now was not the time to think about such things in a dangerous place. After avoiding many patrolling demon clan cultivators along the way, Lu Ping finally arrived at the hidden cave where the Clear Stream Cave Abode was located.
After investigating the waters around the cave, he discovered that there were no demon clan members nearby, and the mark he'd left behind was still there. This meant that the demon clan hadn't discovered this place yet. Lu Ping couldn't help but sigh in relief.
However, Lu Ping still didn't dare to be careless. After opening up the huge rock outside the cave, he carefully put it back in its original place. Only then did Lu Ping continue slowly toward the cave abode.
