"High-grade Earth-step, Magnetic Absorbing Stone!"
Dabao exclaimed, "Boss, leave this treasure for me. When I advance to the late Core Forging stage, I must smelt this spirit object!"
Dabao had been reading all kinds of books and records about the cultivation world that Lu Ping had found for him. His knowledge and vision had greatly increased. Although he was limited by his experience and his knowledge had not increased by much, he gradually showed that he was knowledgeable, which made the other spirit pets of Lu Ping admire him.
The Magnetic Absorbing Stone was an extremely rare earth-attribute spirit object in the cultivation world. Although it was only a high-grade Earth-step spirit object, it had two characteristics that made it very popular among cultivators who practiced earth-attribute spells.
The first characteristic was similar to the Xuanyuan Heavy Water that Lu Ping had smelted. It could greatly increase the density of a cultivator's Zhen Yuan. Of course, the amount of increase was far from comparable to the Xuanyuan Heavy Water, but even so, it was still quite amazing.
The second characteristic was similar to the gravitational force that restrained Lu Qin-er's flight. Through this characteristic of the Magnetic Absorbing Stone, after smelting this spirit object, cultivators could practice a magical power called the "Moving Mountain Technique". This magical power was actually the same as the spell contained in the talisman weapon in Dabao's hand.
After listening to Dabao's general explanation, Lu Linger jumped out to attack Dabao. She said, "Fatty Bao, with your laziness, you are only preparing to smelt a high-grade Mystic-step Black Jade Stone when you advance to the mid Core Forging stage. I'm afraid you will need the help of father's Minor Forging Spirit Pill. Even so, you still want to smelt a high-grade Earth-step spirit object when you advance to the late Core Forging stage. I think it will be difficult for you to smelt this spirit object when you advance to the Gold Core Forging stage."
Hearing this, Dabao flew into a rage. His fat face turned red. He said, "Little Ling 'er, don't talk nonsense. When did I not cultivate hard? Just you wait, I will definitely smelt this Magnetic Absorbing Stone when I advance to the late Core Forging stage."
Lu Linger showed a disdainful expression and said, "Pang Bao, I'd be a fool to believe you. Besides, did father agree to smelt this treasure for you?"
Dabao was stunned. He looked at Lu Ping with a hint of pleading in his eyes. Lu Ping smiled and said, "If you are qualified, do you think I can stop you?"
Dabao was overjoyed and proudly showed off to Lu Linger. Lu Linger curled her lips and said, "What's there to be proud of? Let others see you as if you can smelt high-grade Earth-class spiritual items."
Lu Ping knew that Lu Linger was deliberately provoking Dabao. But at this time, it was about time, so he smiled and said, "Okay, it's time to go up to the sixth floor. It seems that the Eight Scenic Building is a good place for training. Although it is a bit weak for me, it is suitable for you. It seems that after obtaining this treasure, I will have to put you all in seclusion for a period of time."
Big Treasure rolled his eyes and said, "Boss, now that there is no one controlling this artifact, the difficulty of each level will naturally be greatly reduced. Moreover, the feys stored on each floor are of different grades. I think the higher the grade of the fey, the more difficult the trial scene that can be triggered."
Lu Ping looked at Dabao and said, "You mean to say that after obtaining this treasure, the trial's threshold will be greatly increased?"
Da Bao smiled and said, "That's for sure, but it's up to you to decide which position to set the trial's threshold."
As soon as everyone entered the sixth floor's environment, they were blown by a strong wind and couldn't open their eyes.
However, such an environment made Lu Qin-er and Lu Bi's eyes light up. Invisible wind blades swept towards everyone, but Lu Ping didn't make a move.
Lu Qin-er's hands turned into a pair of wings and fiercely flapped in the direction of the wind. There were also countless invisible wind blades, but they were blowing in the opposite direction.
A few meters in front of everyone, two wind blades collided with each other. A series of air explosions sounded, and many wind blades were annihilated after the collision.
However, there were still many wind blades that weren't annihilated flying towards everyone. Lu Bi shook the spirit whip in her hand and made a circling motion around her body.
A wind wall suddenly formed along with Lu Bi's spirit whip, protecting everyone in the wind wall.
One after another, the invisible wind blades crashed into the wind wall. Like countless fish falling into the water, they disappeared in an instant.
Lu Ping nodded slightly, and his eyes shone with green light. He carefully observed his surroundings, but he didn't find anything, so he swept his divine sense. Only then did his expression change. He took two steps sideways and reached out with his hand. The whole world suddenly became calm.
Then, the whole world was quickly torn apart, and everyone was once again returned to the pavilion.
Lu Bi looked at Lu Ping anxiously, but saw that Lu Ping's palm was slightly raised, as if there was something in his palm. However, when she looked at it, it was clearly empty.
Seeing everyone's curiosity, Lu Ping said, "Feel it with your divine sense."
Everyone suddenly understood and used their divine sense to explore Lu Ping's palm. However, after a while, everyone frowned because they found that the thing in Lu Ping's hand was faintly discernible even in their divine sense.
"This is called the Feather of the Storm. It is a middle-grade Earth-step spirit object. It is produced in the wind and usually drifts with the wind. It is an extremely rare spirit object."
Looking at Lu Bi's expectant face, Lu Ping smiled and said, "This spirit object is very suitable for Bi 'er when she advances to the Mid-stage Core Forging Realm in the future."
When Lu Bi heard Lu Ping's words, she knew that Lu Ping had agreed to give her this most suitable spirit object, so she quickly said with joy, "Thank you, father!"
Lu Ping turned to look at the stairs leading to the seventh floor and said, "Let's go to the seventh floor and have a look. I think it should be a world of ice and snow!"
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, ice, these were the seven major attributes of the cultivation world. Previously, everyone had passed through the illusion of six of these attributes, so the last one must be an illusion of ice and snow.
Lu Linger took the lead and stepped into the seventh floor, and then everyone followed. However, to everyone's surprise, although the seventh floor was still an illusion of heaven and earth, it was not a world of ice and snow.
Feeling the slight chill, Lu Linger said with some disappointment, "How can this be called a world of ice and snow? At most, it is only the bleakness of late autumn."
Lu Ping laughed and said, "It seems that the ice attribute spirit object used to suppress the illusion of the seventh floor is either too low in grade, or there is no such thing at all."
A green light flashed in Lu Ping's eyes, and then he went straight to a place, stretched out his hand, and with a "pa" sound, it was as if he had slapped on a wooden table. The world in front of them shattered, and everyone returned to the pavilion.
At this time, Lu Ping was standing next to the wooden table in the center of the pavilion. On the wooden table that was engraved with runes, there was really no ice attribute spirit object floating on it, which made Lu Linger very frustrated.
After everyone entered the Bajing Tower, they killed all the way from the first floor to the seventh floor. With the help of Lu Ping, it could be said that they were almost irresistible. Seeing that there was no harvest on the seventh floor, Dabao hurriedly urged everyone to quickly go to the eighth floor, so that they could see the true face of the Bajing Tower.
It was too late to stop them, and everyone had already gone to the eighth floor. Lu Ping looked at everyone disappearing at the staircase of the eighth floor, and he helplessly smiled and muttered to himself, "Forget it, these people have always been bold and unscrupulous, I will let you taste some pain."
After saying that, Lu Ping deliberately slowed down his pace, and walked step by step towards the eighth floor.
Dabao, Lu Qin-er, and Lu Linger, the two impatient people, led everyone all the way to the eighth floor. When they turned around, they saw that Lu Ping did not follow them in, and their hearts suddenly made a "thump" sound.
Then they heard an earth-shattering thunder in the sky, and when they looked up, they did not know when the sky had suddenly become densely covered with thunder clouds, as if the black mass was hovering above everyone's head.
In the black clouds, there was a burst of flickering, followed by a muffled thunder that resounded through the world, and then a thunderbolt smashed down on everyone's head.
Dabao hurriedly said, "Let's work together to resist it!"
After that, everyone gathered around Lu Dagui. They heard Lu Dagui's low roar, and a tortoiseshell like a dome enveloped everyone in it.
The rest of the people took action, each injecting their own Zhenqi into the tortoiseshell.
The thunderbolt in the sky fell on the tortoiseshell, and the whole black-gray tortoiseshell trembled. If it were not for the help of others' Zhenqi, Lu Dagui would have almost been hit by the thunderbolt and sat on the ground.
However, the dark clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and thunder and lightning fell from the dark clouds one after another. This time, not only Lu Dagui, but also Samling and Lu Qin-er, who had the highest cultivation, felt that their Zhenqi was consumed, and they gradually could not hold on.
This time, Dabao finally understood what was going on. It was impossible for Lu Ping to not enter the eighth floor after such a long time. The only possibility was that everyone did not listen to Lu Ping's command, and rushed into the eighth floor. Obviously, Lu Ping wanted to make everyone suffer a little, so that they would remember.
After understanding the reason, Dabao suddenly shouted, "Boss, help, we know we were wrong."
After Dabao shouted, the other two naughty people like Lu Qin-er and Lu Ling 'er reacted first, and hurriedly apologized, asking Lu Ping to quickly help, otherwise they would be struck into charcoal.
Lu Ping, who had already entered the attic, was actually hiding on the side. After seeing everyone learn a lesson, he released the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd from the core space.
The Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd flew straight into the clouds, and a seven-colored lightning flashed in all directions. The lightning in the dark clouds was immediately suppressed.
In fact, when Lu Ping entered the eighth floor, the flashing lightning in the sky caused a reaction from the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd in Lu Ping's core space.
Lu Ping thought about the first seven floors of the Bajing Tower. Each floor had a different attribute of the world, and the last floor was a world of lightning. The Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd also had different attributes of the world as its foundation, and finally gave birth to the power of lightning. Could it be that the two were related?
When Lu Ping entered the eighth floor, even though he hid himself, the lightning in the sky was still aimed at him. But at this moment, the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd in Lu Ping's core space shook. For some unknown reason, the lightning that was originally aimed at Lu Ping seemed to hesitate, and in the end, it didn't strike down on Lu Ping.
After Lu Ping released the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd, the entire thundercloud was suppressed. Countless lightning flashed with the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd as the center, forming a seven-colored lightning net.
The giant net withdrew, and the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd fell back into Lu Ping's hands. The dark clouds in the sky also disappeared, and Dabao and the others let out a sigh of relief. Then, they saw Lu Ping standing not far away from them.
Lu Ping reached out with his hand and drew out a bolt of lightning from the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd into the illusory world. The environment suddenly shattered like a mirror, and after everyone returned to the tower, they all looked at the wooden table in the center.
This time, there were no Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures floating on top of the wooden table. Instead, the wooden table was evenly divided into seven colors, and each color was engraved with mysterious runes. Even with Lu Ping's Spiritual Force, he couldn't clearly distinguish these runes.
On top of the wooden table, there was a small pavilion that looked exactly the same as the real Eight Scenic Restaurant in the center of the seven-colored wooden table.
In this small tower, aside from the fourth and seventh floors that were dark, the other floors were emitting spirit light. This was especially true for the eighth floor, which was flashing with traces of lightning. From time to time, lightning would come out of this small Bajing Tower.
Lu Ping knew that this small pavilion was probably the core of the large mystic treasure. So, he stepped forward and slammed his palm on the roof of the pavilion. A thick layer of bluish-purple True Essence instantly covered the entire pavilion's surface. At the same time, the True Essence seeped into the interior of the pavilion.
Then, Lu Ping's Quintessential Essence filled the entire first floor of the pavilion. The golden light on the first floor suddenly grew brighter, followed by the second and third floors, which also emitted a rich green and blue light.
The fourth floor didn't have a fire-attribute spirit object to suppress it, so Lu Ping's True Essence refinement was especially fast. The tower only emitted a faint red light.
The fifth and sixth floors were a little slower. Obviously, it was because the quality of the spirit objects was relatively higher. However, in front of Lu Ping's vigorous True Essence, they didn't last long.
After refining the seventh floor, Lu Ping's True Essence filled the first seven floors of the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd. He originally thought it would be the most difficult to refine the eighth floor, but after filling the first seven floors with True Essence, his True Essence entered the eighth floor without any hindrance. This surprised Lu Ping.
If someone was in the Yingtian Dojo at this time, they would be able to see that as Lu Ping refined the small Bajing Tower on the eighth floor, the entire Bajing Tower was also shining brightly with the improvement of Lu Ping's refining level.
Just after Lu Ping refined the eighth floor, the small tower on the wooden table suddenly shone brightly, and then disappeared from the wooden table. Everyone looked at Lu Ping, but they saw that Lu Ping's face was calm, and there was no change in him because of the disappearance of the small tower.
Just after the small Bajing Tower on the wooden table disappeared, the entire huge Bajing Tower suddenly shook. Lu Ping said to everyone, "I have refined the Bajing Tower. We will go out soon." In the Yingtian Dojo, the Bajing Tower first shook, and then the entire tower actually rose into the air. Then, it began to slowly shrink.
At this time, a few brilliances suddenly emerged from the eighth floor of the tower. The brilliance landed on the ground, and Lu Ping and the others appeared from the escape light.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the shrinking Bajing Tower. At this time, the Bajing Tower had shrunk to eight inches high, and it fell into Lu Ping's palm, occupying exactly the center of his palm.
Dabao and the others congratulated Lu Ping on obtaining the treasure. After refining the Bajing Tower, Lu Ping already had some understanding of the Bajing Tower's functions, and he was very happy.
Lu Ping pondered for a moment. Although the Bajing Tower was of great help to improve his personal strength, the greatest value of this Spirit Nurturing Treasure was actually as the foundation for the growth of a sect. The real thing that could maximize the Bajing Tower's value was still Zhenling.
Lu Ping summoned a Spirit Fire from the Storage Treasure. This Earth Middle Grade Spirit Fire was forcibly seized by Samling from the Overflowing River Sect's Alchemy Master, Cai Zhenfeng. Along with it, he had also seized a high-grade Alchemy Furnace.
Lu Ping placed the Spirit Fire directly into the fourth floor of the tower. It was originally a fire-attribute environment. Without the suppression of the Spirit Fire, it could only transform into a hot desert at most.
However, after Lu Ping placed the Earth-ranked mid-grade spirit fire into the fourth floor, the entire fourth floor suddenly shone with a dazzling red light. Then, the red light gradually faded away, but the originally dark fourth floor also shone brightly.
Lu Ping turned to Lu Ling 'er and asked, "Ling' er, do you still have an Earth Middle Grade Ice Spirit Item?"
"Ah?"
Lu Ling 'er very reluctantly handed over a Earth Middle Grade Ice Spirit Item to Lu Ping. This Spirit Item was the double Earth Middle Grade Ice Spirit Item that Lu Ping had obtained when he killed Ao Wushuang in the Deep Sea Demon Territory. This kind of Spirit Item was suitable for Lu Ling' er to refine when she advanced to the Mid Core Forging Realm. Therefore, Lu Ping gave both Spirit Items to Lu Ling 'er for safekeeping.
However, when Lu Ling 'er advanced to the Mid Core Forging Realm, she could at most refine a Earth Middle Grade Ice Spirit Item. Even so, Lu Ling' er still reluctantly handed over the other Earth Middle Grade Ice Spirit Item to Lu Ping.
When Lu Ping saw Lu Ling 'er pouting her small mouth, he laughed and received the Spirit Item. Then, he directly placed it into the seventh floor of the tower. A silver-white cold mist rose from the seventh floor, and suddenly, a light flashed.
After Lu Ping placed the Ice Spirit Item, except for the eighth floor, every floor of the tower had a Heaven and Earth Spirit Item as a cornerstone. The aura of the entire Eight Landscapes Tower changed. Lu Ping could clearly feel that the Eight Landscapes Tower's power had undergone a qualitative change.
The Eight Landscapes Tower's power was mainly reflected in three aspects. The first was the quality of the Spirit Nurturing Treasure itself. The second was whether or not there was a Heaven and Earth Spirit Item as a cornerstone. Finally, it depended on the grade of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Item.
At this time, the Eight Landscapes Tower already had the first two aspects. The third aspect was undoubtedly a function that tested the owner's wealth. Lu Ping did not intend to use all of his wealth to upgrade the Eight Landscapes Tower. After all, the Eight Landscapes Tower would be opened to all cultivators in Zhenling in the future. Right now, it was only for his own use. Therefore, he first used his own Spirit Items to fill up the seventh floor. Once he returned to Zhenling, he would certainly need to extort some high-grade Spirit Items from Laozu.
