"Golden Jiao Laozu!"
Although Lu Ping had already discovered the person hiding nearby, he could not tell who it was. After all, the other party was a Dharma adept, and Lu Ping should be proud that he had not been discovered by the other party. He did not dare to confirm the other party's identity.
However, just as the other party was about to attack, Lu Ping suddenly realized that this person was none other than the North Sea Primordial Crocodile clan. That year, Lu Ping had killed Lu Ping's son and daughter, and the entire North Sea training world had put out a bounty for Ao Chuang!
Why was he here!
But there was no time for Lu Ping to think. Golden Jiao Island Master Ao Chuang's target wasn't Sang Yu, nor any of the Green Fox Nine Bandits. Instead, it was the mammoth ferocious beast with the Herculean Divine Elephant's bloodline!
Lu Ping's [Dual Blade Art] was born from his mind. With a single thought, the [Dual Blade Art] struck down the golden light. It was a golden coin dart made from the scales of the Primordial Crocodile!
Lu Ping's attack could have been a sneak attack on Ao Chuang, the owner of Golden Jiao Island. However, even if he could divert most of Ao Chuang's attention, the giant elephant would be severely injured even if it did not die under the sneak attack of a hidden weapon like the golden dart.
Lu Ping had actually done Zhenren Sang Yu a favor by cutting off the golden dart. Zhenren Sang Yu was well aware of this. Although this giant elephant only had part of the Herculean Divine Elephant's bloodline, the Herculean Divine Elephant clan was even rarer than the Kun. It was also a top-tier bloodline among the demons. Furthermore, this giant elephant was Zhenren Sang Yu's spiritual pet when he was at the Core Forging stage. In the future, it would also advance to the Dharma stage. If this giant elephant died, even if Zhenren Sang Yu managed to subdue the Primordial Crocodile, his power would be greatly reduced when he advanced to the Dharma stage in the future!
"Who is it?"
Ao Chuang's face darkened as he looked in the direction where the flying sword had appeared. Since it was able to evade the detection of his divine will, Ao Chuang instinctively thought that there was a Dharma adept hiding nearby!
Ao Chuang was extremely confident in his own strength. He was born of a top-grade demon race, and even though the cultivation world was rather barren in the North Sea, he was confident that there were only a handful of cultivators at the same level as him, be it humans or demons, who could defeat him.
However, this situation had been reversed in recent years in the North Sea. Back then, the human and demon races of the North Sea only had three geniuses, and Zhang Xiyi was also included. Among the four, Ao Chuang of the Golden Wyrm Island was the most outstanding.
However, this situation gradually changed after he entered the Dharma stage. Initially, Ao Chuang thought that he was the first second-generation disciple to enter the Dharma stage among the human and demon races of the North Sea. Thus, he held a 600th birthday banquet on the Golden Wyrm Island, intending to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat. Unexpectedly, someone came to destroy the banquet.
Ao Chuang was originally secretly delighted, thinking that this was the moment for him to establish his dominance in the North Sea. However, he did not expect Jiang Tianlin to appear out of nowhere. Not only did he enter the Dharma stage before Ao Chuang, but he also defeated him in an extremely simple way. Ao Chuang's meticulous planning ended up benefiting someone else in the end, making Jiang Tianlin famous.
Fortunately, Ao Chuang and Laozu immediately defeated Feng Xutao, who had entered the Dharma stage, and soon regained much of his confidence.
However, just as Ao Chuang cultivated diligently for several years, preparing to find Jiang Tianlin to avenge himself, news came from the human race of the North Sea. The ten major sects of the North Sea were exploring an ancient relic, and Feng Xutao, Jiang Tianlin, and Zhang Xiyi had actually obtained the inheritance of a Dharma Soul.
This news was like a blow to Ao Chuang's confidence. The Primordial Crocodile clan was similar to the Green Sea Snake clan in that they all inherited the bloodline of the ancient Jiao Daoren. Naturally, they knew what a Dharma Soul meant to a cultivator.
After obtaining the Dharma Soul, Feng Xutao took a shortcut and entered the mid Dharma stage. Zhang Xiyi was originally at the peak of the Core Forging stage, and this time, he also entered the Dharma stage. Like Jiang Tianlin, Zhang Xiyi chose to slowly refine and absorb the Dharma Soul to strengthen his foundation. Although his cultivation speed was not as fast as Feng Xutao's, he would be able to go further in the world of cultivation in the future.
Furthermore, Zhang Xiyi was originally a very talented person, and he had been suppressing his own cultivation to not enter the Dharma stage. Naturally, he had a big plan. After successfully entering the Dharma stage, he fought with Laozu and Ao Chuang to a draw.
If not for the fact that Ao Chuang had not been idle all these years and had been in the Dharma stage for a long time, he would have had the upper hand. However, this also made Laozu feel a sense of urgency. Zhang Xiyi also had the Dharma Soul. Although his cultivation speed was not as fast as that of Feng Xutao, who was a wasteful person, it was definitely much faster than ordinary Dharma adepts. If Ao Chuang still did not make any moves, next time, he would be trampled under the feet of this person who he had looked down on.
However, Ao Chuang was, after all, an outstanding figure among the second generation disciples of the North Sea cultivation world. When he had obtained the title of Lord of the Golden Dragon Island, he had set the stage for himself to enter the Dharma stage in the future.
And this foreshadowing was the five Primordial Crocodiles that had been defeated by Ao Chuang and the others in the process of fighting for the Golden Dragon Island!
That year, when Ao Chuang was roaming the central plains, he met a demon of the same level as him from the Koi clan of the Yulan River. The two of them got along well, and so they became brothers. Later, this Koi demon returned to the North Sea with Ao Chuang, but they encountered the fight for the title of Lord of the Golden Dragon Island.
Ao Chuang, with his abilities, naturally did not want to let go of this opportunity. His good friend did his best to help, but unexpectedly, there were many demon cultivators fighting for the title of Lord of the Golden Dragon Island. With the help of this brother, Ao Chuang used all sorts of methods to defeat these competitors, and finally obtained the title of Lord of the Golden Dragon Island. However, this brother of his was heavily injured in the process of helping him eliminate his old enemy.
Before this brother of Ao Chuang died, his wish was to return to the Yulan River of the central plains to see his son.
Ao Chuang did not care that he had just obtained the title of Lord of the Golden Dragon Island, and that his foundation was not stable yet. He brought his brother back to the Yulan River to see his son.
After this brother had a secret conversation with his son, before he died, he entrusted his son to Ao Chuang's tutelage. This was the Koi Daoist who later died at the hands of Lu Ping.
And when Ao Chuang had roamed the central plains, he naturally knew that there was a vast swamp in the lower reaches of the Yulan River. This was the place where the demon beasts of the Yulan River were raised. Thus, Ao Chuang took advantage of this opportunity to release the five Primordial Crocodiles that had been defeated by him and had lost their intelligence into the swamp.
The secret technique that Ao Chuang had obtained was that when two cultivators of the same bloodline advanced to the Dharma stage, one of them would be able to absorb the essence of the other cultivator's Dharma Power to increase his own cultivation level and strength.
Because this secret technique required the other person to be willing to cooperate, so if Ao Chuang wanted to use this secret technique to increase his own cultivation level, he had to first subdue this beast that was also from the Primordial Crocodile.
Because it was difficult for the Primordial Crocodile to reproduce, it could not be like the Green Sea Snake, which even had the power to compete with the Crystal Palace. In order to use this secret technique that he had obtained from an ancient relic, Ao Chuang did not hesitate to kill his own clansmen as beasts. This was a big taboo in the Primordial Crocodile clan, so Ao Chuang could only release these five beasts into the Yingyu Swamp.
After more than a hundred years, except for two of the five beasts that died, only this one advanced to the Dharma stage. This made Ao Chuang overjoyed. Ao Chuang Laozu, who had always been unable to improve his cultivation level quickly, could not wait to return to the Central Region to subdue this fierce beast that had advanced to the Dharma stage.
Unexpectedly, when he finally found this fierce beast in the swamp, he found that this fierce beast was being subdued by someone. What made Ao Chuang Laozu even more troubled was that this cultivator who was trying to subdue the Primordial Crocodile was a cultivator of the Spirit Beast Sect.
The Primordial Crocodile Clan was not a match for the Spirit Beast Sect. Moreover, the Spirit Beast Sect had always been protective and pestering. Normally, Ao Chuang Laozu would not be willing to provoke them. However, this fierce crocodile was released by Ao Chuang in order to use that secret technique. It was the trump card that Ao Chuang used to compete with Jiang Tianlin, Feng Xidao, Zhang Xiyi and the others. How could he let Immortal Sang Yu take it without saying anything?
What happened next was similar to what Enlightened Master Sang Yu told Lu Ping. Enlightened Master Sang Yu was injured by Ao Chuang's secret technique, which could destroy a cultivator's bloodline. Ao Chuang's secret technique that could destroy a cultivator's bloodline came from his sworn brother from the Koi Clan.
Lu Ping's pair of flying swords attacked one after another. After knocking off Ao Chuang's magic weapon, the pair of flying swords turned into two intertwining green flood dragons that flew towards Ao Chuang Laozu.
At this time, Ao Chuang Laozu could already see that the person blocking him was only a cultivator at the eighth stage of the Core Forging Realm, but Ao Chuang Laozu did not dare to be careless. This was because this was the Central Plains, where geniuses were emerging endlessly. There was no lack of Core Forging Realm cultivators challenging Dharma Realm cultivators. Ao Chuang Laozu had personally witnessed such a thing when he traveled the Central Plains, not to mention that the Spirit Beast Sect cultivator in front of him was able to escape from his sneak attack a month ago.
Lu Ping had obtained a secret technique from his sect to conceal his appearance, and he also used the Five Elements Cloudy Robe to mask his appearance further. He was no longer worried that Ao Chuang Laozu would be able to recognize him. He only needed to control his pair of flying swords, like a fairy scattering flowers, and he firmly entangled Ao Chuang Laozu.
Immortal Sang Yu was secretly shocked when he saw this, but he still shouted to the Green Fox Nine Bandits, "Brothers, put in a little more effort and quickly subdue this fierce crocodile so that we can return and help Brother Lu!"
Ao Chuang Laozu roared angrily. The reason why he was so careful when dealing with Lu Ping was to avoid making a mistake. In reality, among the Central Plains cultivators who were only at the Core Forging stage, most of them could take advantage of Dharma adepts when the Dharma adept was careless. If the Dharma adept was serious, these so-called Core Forging adepts who could compete with the Dharma adept would most likely lose.
Only the direct descendants of the Five Holy Lands, or the older, large sects like the Yuwen clan or the Tianxuan Sect, might have Core Forging adepts who could challenge those of a higher stage. However, Ao Chuang Laozu did not seem to be lucky. He had encountered one today!
