When the news of Huayu Sect's destruction reached the swamp, the other sects' Laozu no longer had any thoughts of fighting the Demon Race for the Abundant Jade Swamp. They didn't dare to stay in the swamp for too long, and they all brought their disciples back to their sects.
The operation launched by the Hebei Cultivation World to expand their sphere of influence ended up with a hasty ending.
Lu Ping and Guo Tianshan Laozu bid farewell to Yin Hui and Laozu after leaving the swamp. The two of them flew back to Ying Shan Immortal Academy. Liang Tianfeng and Qu Tiancheng had already returned to Immortal Academy a long time ago.
When the great formation was activated, Lu Ping and Guo Tianshan Laozu had already entered Immortal Academy. They immediately sensed that the density of the spiritual energy inside had greatly increased. The disciples of Immortal Academy all had joyous smiles on their faces. Clearly, they already knew that this was the work of the sect's Laozu.
Lu Ping hurriedly went to the center of the great formation to set up a guiding formation, and then activated the great formation in the swamp. The entire Immortal Academy shook again, and three small spirit veins were guided back. The total number of spirit veins in the entire Immortal Academy was close to four medium spirit veins.
The disciples of Immortal Academy were already extremely familiar with this kind of earth-shaking and mountain-shaking situation. A moment after Lu Ping activated the great formation, the disciples of Immortal Academy once again let out a wave of cheers. They clearly sensed that the density of the spiritual energy in the sect had increased again.
Lu Ping activated the guiding formation again, drawing the small spirit stone vein in the swamp to the back of the mountain. Only then did he and Guo Tianshan Laozu run to see Liang Tianfeng and Qu Tiancheng, the two Laozu's.
"How was the harvest?"
Guo Tianshan Laozu asked as soon as he saw the two Laozu's in the stone cave under the cliff.
Qu Tiancheng Laozu said complacently, "It went quite smoothly. Unfortunately, we couldn't extract Huayu Sect's spirit vein for Immortal Academy's use. Otherwise, this time, Huayu Sect would have taken drastic measures."
Guo Tianshan Laozu smiled and said, "Of course, the Huayu Sect's Spirit Meridian cannot be touched. Otherwise, the remaining three Dharma adepts of the Huayu Sect would definitely be able to trace the movements of the Spirit Meridian to the Celestial Academy. You don't know that the two of you have committed such a Dharma theft, but it has caused all the cultivators in the Hebei training world to be in a state of panic. Now, most of them have already retreated from the swamp and returned to their own sects. If they find out that the Huayu Sect's Spirit Meridian was robbed by Celestial Academy, then we can just wait for the entire Hebei training world to be bathed in blood."
That day in the swamp, Guo Tianshan Laozu and the others had joined hands to kill Huayu Sect's Qinghua Laozu. This had caused the remaining three Laozu's of the Huayu Sect to move out and enter the Yingyu Swamp to avenge Qinghua Laozu.
However, at this time, Liang Tianfeng and Qu Tiancheng, the two Laozu's, had taken the opportunity to leave the swamp and come to the Huayu Sect's mountain gate. After Lu Ping had brought the complete inheritance of the Ying Tian Sect's Seven-Colored Restriction Breaking Talisman back to the sect, Tian Xue Laozu and Xuan Ju Zhenren's talisman crafting skills had improved greatly. Although the Five-Colored Restriction Breaking Talisman was still difficult to craft, it was no longer as precious as before.
Using four Five-Colored Restriction Breaking Talismans crafted by Tian Xue Laozu and Xuan Ju Zhenren, they smashed a hole in the Huayu Sect's Sect Protecting Array. After that, the two Laozu's were like tigers that had entered a flock of sheep, wantonly plundering the mountain gate. It was as if they wanted to turn the entire Huayu Sect's fortune upside down.
Over a hundred top grade spirit stones, over ten thousand high grade spirit stones, three Spirit Nurturing Treasures, three high grade cauldrons, eight types of Earth Ranked and above spiritual items, six Heaven and Earth Ranked and above spiritual items, two talisman weapons, two complete inheritance cultivation techniques, two inheritances of great divine abilities and techniques, … …
These were all things that the two Laozu's were interested in. As for the other things that they did not like, such as mid and low grade spirit stones, treasures and tools that were below the level of spiritual treasures, low grade spiritual items, strange items, incomplete inheritance cultivation techniques, divine abilities and techniques, spiritual herbs, spiritual materials and so on, there were countless of them.
"If it wasn't for the fact that at least half of the sect's most precious items were carried by the sect's Laozu's, the harvest this time would definitely be even greater!"
Qu Tiancheng Laozu was obviously not satisfied with these harvests. However, he also knew that it was impossible for him to have any ideas on the remaining three Laozu's of the Huayu Sect.
The majority of these things were to be handed over to the sect. However, since they were able to plunder the Huayu Sect's treasures, the four of them naturally had the first chance to obtain the treasures. Of the three Spirit Nurturing Treasures, Qu Tiancheng Laozu and Liang Tianfeng Laozu each took one that was suitable for them.
Lu Ping was not careless either. He took away a thousand high-grade spirit stones for cultivation. He chose two suitable items for the Seven Treasures Thunder Gourd to devour. He took away a quarter of the three thousand year old spirit herbs and picked out some of the other thousand year old spirit herbs and five hundred year old spirit herbs.
As one of the three great Alchemy Grandmasters of Zhenling, Lu Ping had the right to take a quarter of the three thousand year old spirit herbs that the sect had obtained under any circumstances. The other two Grandmasters also had a quarter each, and the remaining quarter was left for the other Alchemy Grandmasters of the sect to hone their alchemy skills or as the sect's reserves.
As for the remaining items, the three Laozu each picked them out. Then, they left a portion of the cultivation resources in the Ying Shan Immortal Academy as a reserve. Only then did Qu Tiancheng Laozu put the rest of the items into a huge storage bag, preparing to bring it back to Zhenling.
This time, the Ying Shan Immortal Academy, or rather, Zhenling, instigated conflict among the various sects in the Hebei training world. At the same time, they added fuel to the fire and prevented the Spiritual Martial Sect from unifying the Hebei training world and becoming a large sect.
The three Dharma adepts of the Spiritual Martial Sect entered the swamp. One early Dharma adept and one mid Dharma adept perished. In the end, only the great adept Wu Lingfeng led the few remaining Core Forging disciples out of the swamp. This was a huge blow to the ambitious Spiritual Martial Sect.
The human practitioners, Mara tribe, beasts, and demons from various regions and sects engaged in a chaotic battle in the swamp. In the end, most of the Mara tribe was annihilated. The human practitioners also suffered heavy casualties. It was said that other than the two Dharma adepts of the Spiritual Martial Sect who perished, five other Laozu also perished. Two of them were practitioners from the Hebei training world, while the other three were practitioners from other sects.
Although the demons had the geographical advantage and had launched a surprise attack, they were still just the demons of the Yulan River. In the end, they were suppressed by the combined forces of the humans, and five or six demon Laozu cultivators perished.
Other than Mara, the number of Core Forging adepts who perished from various sects and races reached more than 150. Of the eighty-one practitioners from the eighteen sects of the Hebei training world who had entered the swamp, only slightly more than half made it out.
Apart from these incidents, the Tianxuan Sect and the Tianxuan Sect, the two large sects in the lower reaches of the Yulan River, who had always been at odds with each other in the Yulan Swamp. Also, the Huayu Sect's lair had been raided by two Dharma bandits, causing the Hebei training world to suffer a great defeat in the swamp.
The former was not a strange occurrence in the training world, but the latter was something new. Everyone in the training world was trying to guess the identities of the two Dharma bandits. Unfortunately, the three Laozu from the Huayu Sect had come out in full force, and the remaining Core Forging adepts were unable to see through the disguises the two Dharma bandits were wearing.
After the incident in the swamp came to an end, Qu Tiancheng Laozu returned to the North Sea alone, while Liang Tianfeng Laozu stayed behind. This time, he would appear at the Ying Shan Immortal Academy at an appropriate time to slowly familiarize himself with the disciples of the academy. Twenty years later, he would replace Guo Tianshan Laozu as the overseer of the Ying Shan Immortal Academy.
The position of Mountain Head of the Celestial Academy was usually changed every ten years, while the position of Dharma Laozu changed every thirty years. However, before this, Liang Tianfeng Laozu still had a mission from the sect. He needed to travel to the Central Plains and observe the situation in the Central Plains training world.
After the trip to the swamp, the Ying Shan Immortal Academy kept a low profile and became completely silent. They focused all their attention on supervising the training of the disciples from the Celestial Academy.
Even so, the news that the Ying Shan Immortal Academy had obtained a medium-sized spirit vein from the swamp still spread like wildfire in the Hebei training world. In particular, the news of Elder Xuan Ping from the Ying Shan Immortal Academy, who was only at the eighth stage of the Core Forging stage, actually had the ability to fight against a Dharma adept and had even joined forces with Guo Tianshan to snatch the spirit vein from the hands of two Dharma adepts from the Liu Yang Sect. This news shocked all the late Core Forging stage adepts in the Hebei training world.
If previously, when Lu Ping single-handedly defeated the Three Heroes of the Gu Clan with two swords, people thought that Lu Ping had the right to challenge Dharma adepts. This time, the battle with the Dharma adepts from the Liu Yang Sect had greatly increased the status of the Ying Shan Immortal Academy in the Hebei training world.
Even so, many sects in the Hebei training world were still coveting the medium-sized spirit vein that the Ying Shan Immortal Academy had obtained. This was because many sects that were far more powerful than the Ying Shan Immortal Academy had not obtained as much as the Ying Shan Immortal Academy had during this trip to the swamp.
However, with the appearance of Lu Ping, the Ying Shan Immortal Academy suddenly had the power of two Dharma adepts. This caused many sects to hesitate.
At this time, Liang Tianfeng Laozu, who was disguised as an "old friend" of Guo Tianshan and Laozu of many years, suddenly came to visit. He congratulated his "old friend" on establishing a sect and becoming an ancestor. After that, he chatted with Guo Tianshan and Laozu in the Immortal Academy. From time to time, he would also give guidance to the disciples of the Immortal Academy on the cultivation path. It was as if he had become a guest of the Ying Shan Immortal Academy.
This time, the Ying Shan Immortal Academy instantly had the power of three Laozu. Two of them were true Dharma adepts, while the other was a late Core Forging adept who could fight against a Dharma adept. This caused many sects that wanted to force the Immortal Academy to hand over the medium-sized spirit vein to give up on their previous plans.
Lu Ping waited in the Immortal Academy for close to a month but did not receive any news from the Green Fox Nine Bandits. Although he was surprised, he did not take it to heart. After all, Sang Yu was from the Spirit Beast Sect. Even if Sang Yu could not cure the poison herself, there was no guarantee that the sect would have an antidote for the Green Sea Snake's poison. Since Green Fox was his sworn sister, Sang Yu naturally would not just stand by and watch. Perhaps the snake poison in her body had already been cured.
However, if that was the case, Lu Ping and the Green Fox Nine Bandits would become enemies in the future. Even the Ying Shan Immortal Academy would become a thorn in the side of these nine bandits.
However, Lu Ping still did not take these nine people seriously. After the previous battle, Lu Ping had a clear understanding of the power of the Green Fox Nine Bandits. Although the combined power of the Nine Bandits was comparable to a Dharma adept, Lu Ping was confident that these nine people would not be able to do anything to him.
