Lu Ping had already released Samling. The Green Sea Snake was the same as the Tenma people, the Koi Carp Tribe, and the Primordial Giant Crocodile Tribe. They were all direct descendants of the Jiao Bloodline. Since the Koi Carp Tribe and the Pegasus Tribe valued the source of the river so much, Lu Ping would naturally release Samling to see what was going on.
"Bi 'er, did the three of you notice anything strange in the thick fog?"
Lu Ping believed that the reason why his bloodline could feel such a strong attraction was because of the Jiao Bloodline. Therefore, the Green Sea Snake, who was also a direct descendant of Jiao Daoren like the Tenma people and the Koi Carp Tribe, should feel a stronger attraction than him. However, Samling kept shaking his head. Obviously, the three of them did not feel anything strange in their bloodline. This made Lu Ping confused.
Lu Ping opened the Space Portal of the Golden House and wanted to release Lu Qin-er. However, Lu Qin-er did not dare to come out. Lu Ping asked why, but Lu Qin-er only said that there was something in the thick fog that she was afraid of.
Lu Ping tried to release Lu Dagui and Lu Dabao, but the two of them were also hiding in the Space. No matter how Lu Ping summoned them, they did not dare to come out. Lu Ping asked why, but they could not tell him the reason. It seemed that it was a kind of intuition, a kind of instinct that originated from monsters, that allowed them to sense the hidden threat in the thick fog.
There was no turning back now. Just as Lu Ping injured the hidden opponent and rushed to his hiding spot, his divine sense suddenly changed. It was as if the surrounding scenery had completely changed. Lu Ping moved forward in the direction he came from, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find his way out of the fog-shrouded area.
If it was a blessing, it wouldn't be a disaster, and if it was a disaster, he couldn't avoid it. Lu Ping pondered for a moment, then immediately got up and walked in the direction of the temptation in his bloodline.
Through the compressed divine sense, Lu Ping could only detect a radius of more than a hundred feet. However, when he walked in the direction of the invisible temptation, Lu Ping found that he was not walking in a straight line towards the depths of the thick fog. Instead, he was going left, then back. A moment ago, he was still going forward, but a moment later, he was going right. This made Lu Ping unable to tell which direction he was going.
Although Lu Ping had many doubts, he still followed this mysterious feeling. He suspected that he was going in the right direction, because he was not going in the wrong direction. It was because he was hiding in the thick fog that he could not tell which direction he was going.
Although he seemed to be running around like a headless fly, Lu Ping might really have taken a shortcut.
This time, Lu Ping naturally did a lot of research on the River Source Array. Every time the River Source Array opened, the fog array would open a month in advance.
After entering the fog array, the cultivators must find the Sacred Fall Lake where the river source was located within a month. Otherwise, the cultivators would lose the qualification to enter the Sacred Fall Lake. They could only stay in the fog array for four to five years, and then wait for the cultivators who entered the Sacred Fall Lake to finish their seclusion before the fog array was reopened.
This one month period was actually a test for cultivators. After entering the fog formation, due to the obstruction of spiritual sense and vision, cultivators would often encounter each other abruptly, resulting in a battle. Unlike before, cultivators could use spiritual sense and visual abilities to avoid each other. In such a battle, once one side was defeated, due to the close distance, they would often not be able to escape even if they wanted to.
Lu Ping moved forward for about an hour before he finally noticed some movement in front of him. He immediately stopped. Samling, who was following behind Lu Ping, transformed into three small snakes that were three feet long. They slithered around Lu Ping's feet, but they did not dare to go too far away from Lu Ping. Otherwise, they would not know how the array would work, and they would lose contact with Lu Ping.
The aura on Samling's body rapidly decreased under Lu Ping's Divine Sense. This surprised Lu Ping. He did not expect Samling to have such a brilliant method of concealing his tracks.
This method was similar to a skill similar to hibernation to Lu Ping. It reduced the aura of the body's life to the minimum. The only difference was that Samling still maintained a clear mind and fast attack power.
Green light shone from Lu Ping's eyes. He could already see a vague shadow more than 30 feet away. His Divine Sense could also detect that the other party's cultivation was around the ninth stage of the Core Forging Realm. The other party seemed to be very cautious, ready to deal with any sudden changes in the fog.
Lu Ping had clearly noticed him first. Under such circumstances, it would not be difficult for Lu Ping to launch a sneak attack and heavily injure him. However, killing him in one blow would not be easy. Even if he could not kill him in one blow, as long as the other party still had the strength to activate a simple escape technique and run more than 30 feet away, due to the array, Lu Ping would not be able to find him again.
Lu Ping moved his finger slightly and the blue Netherwater Sword circled around Lu Ping's body like a ghost. Then, Lu Ping made a hand seal and the Netherwater Sword immediately disappeared into the thick fog.
This was the best time for the Netherwater Sword to shine. It was also the best time for the Shapeless Sword Technique to be amplified to the extreme.
At this time, the other cultivator seemed to have noticed something. He had already stopped in his tracks and stood there quietly, as if sensing something. However, none of his various perception-type magic techniques could detect anything strange. However, his intuition, honed by years of life and death situations, told him that danger was approaching.
The cultivator patted his chest and a bronze bell appeared before him. Immediately, a yellow light began to gather within the bronze bell. The bronze bell then slowly rose up from the top of the cultivator's head. Once the yellow light descended, it would be able to protect the cultivator completely. That way, it would be difficult for the Netherwater Sword to launch another sneak attack on the cultivator.
Lu Ping's eyes lit up. This was a pure Spirit Nurturing grade defensive magic treasure. This was a Dabao Shell!
Although Lu Ping also had a Spirit Nurturing grade Cloudlight Five Elemental Robe, this magic treasure had many different functions. Although its defensive power was quite good, it was still weakened by its other functions.
Furthermore, the Cloudlight Five Elemental Robe was regarded by Liu Tianling and Laozu as an inheritance token of the Zhong Hua Lineage, so it could not be owned by Lu Ping. Lu Ping had always wanted to find a suitable defensive magic treasure, but it was not easy to find a Spirit Nurturing grade defensive magic treasure.
Lu Ping had originally wanted to repair the Water-Controlling Flag and restore its glory when it was in Jiao Yuqiang's hands. However, this hope was somewhat remote. The materials used to refine the Water-Controlling Flag were extremely rare. Even now, Chen Lian had not figured out what kind of materials were used to refine the flag. Furthermore, the refining method of the Water-Controlling Flag was extremely unique. Even if he found the materials and managed to repair it, there would be no way for him to improve the Water-Controlling Flag in the future.
Lu Ping narrowed his eyes. Before the brass bell's yellow light descended, he formed a sword seal with his hand and abruptly sent it forward. Seeing that, the cultivator on the other side could finally sense an undercurrent surging before him.
Not good, the cultivator hastily mobilized the brass bell above his head. At the same time, he attempted to retreat. However, it was too late. The Netheraqua Sword, which was slowly making its way towards the cultivator, did not give him the chance to do so. The sword stabbed into the cultivator's heart. Next, with a twist, the core space shattered.
Lu Ping's expression changed and he quickly dashed towards the cultivator. But then, he saw a golden core suddenly fly out from the heart's core space that was pierced by the Water Nether Sword. The copper bell above his head shone with a yellow light, protecting the golden core as it flew deeper into the fog.
The Fated Autumn Sword spun and unleashed a series of killer attacks. A ringing sound rang out and the yellow light descending from the brass bell shook violently, becoming much sparser. In the end, however, it was still able to block Lu Ping's double-kill attack.
The brass bell, protecting the Gold Core, flashed a few times within the thick fog. Just as Lu Ping was about to take action again, the brass bell had disappeared.
Careless!
Lu Ping was not upset that the cultivator had managed to escape. At any rate, the cultivator could not possibly know who he was. Even if this Gold Core could be reincarnated in the future, he would lose a great deal of his memories. Recovering his cultivation base to his current level would be even more difficult.
It was a pity that Lu Ping didn't manage to get his hands on the copper bell mystic treasure. In a situation where the cultivator was only a Golden Core cultivator, the copper bell was still able to withstand his attack and protect its master. It was clear that the quality of the mystic treasure was extraordinary, which made Lu Ping very frustrated.
After picking up the cultivator's storage magic treasure from the ground, Lu Ping revealed a slight smile.
The cultivators who entered the fog array were all aiming for the Sacred Lake. Cultivating in seclusion there for four years could guarantee that their cultivation base would rise by at least one level. Therefore, every cultivator who entered brought most of their belongings with them.
This ninth-stage Core Forging cultivator clearly wanted to use the Sacred Lake to refine a third World Spirit Treasure and raise his cultivation base to the peak of the Core Forging stage.
Two sets of Heaven-Step Low-Grade Spirit Treasures of the metal attribute. It seemed that this cultivator was very ambitious. If he could succeed, then it would be more than enough to refine a good seventh-stage Gold Core.
Unfortunately, none of Lu Ping's spirit pets cultivated metal-attribute spells, so he could not use the pair of Heaven-Gold Stones.
There were more than ten types of Spirit Pills needed by late Core Forging stage cultivators. Among them, there were quite a few that Lu Ping had only heard of, but he did not know how to refine. If he could enter the Sacred Lake this time, he would save himself the trouble of refining pills.
After putting away the hundreds of high-grade Spirit Stones, he put the three top-grade Spirit Stones into a jade box that Lu Ping had specially prepared. Inside the box were dozens of top-grade Spirit Stones that Lu Ping had accumulated over the years. Many of them were obtained when he killed Qin Xue Laozu and Nan Hua Laozu. However, most of them were given to Guo Tianshan Laozu.
There were also many high-quality items left, but Lu Ping left them to Dabao to deal with. He held one of the jade cards in his hand and played with it.
"A cultivator from the Western Wilderness Palace? It seems that my luck is really good! "
The Western Wilderness Palace was a large, established force like the Supreme Mystery Sect in the plain cultivation world. Just like the Ying Tian Sect in the past, the Western Wilderness Palace established their sect at the border between the Central Plains and the outer regions, as if they were hiding from something.
Including the Supreme Mystery Sect, which established their sect at the mouth of the Yulan River on the edge of the plain cultivation world, it seemed that these large, established forces were giving up the hinterland of the Central Plains.
