A cultivator screamed as he fell from mid-air, and a gap suddenly appeared in the encirclement. Ma Chenxi rushed out of the gap in a rather disheveled manner. He took away the storage artifact of the fallen cultivator, and then he escaped into the depths of the river source without looking back.
"Damn, this kid got lucky. If it weren't for the fact that we don't know each other and hastily set up this Seven Star Dao Soldier Array, how could this person escape!"
A cultivator who looked to be in his thirties flicked the long sword hovering in front of him regretfully and said faintly.
"This person is a proud son of heaven from the Heavenly Pegasus Clan. He has many life-saving treasures on him, so it's not surprising that he was able to escape. We only came here with the slightest hope. No matter what, even if we fail, we won't be exposed. How could we not try?"
"That's right. It's just that the 'Seven Star Moon Trapping Dao Soldier Array' in Fellow Daoist Half Star's hands is really amazing. It is said to be a secret technique of the Seven Star Sect. Just now, in order to trap this Ma Chenxi, Fellow Daoist Half Star only taught each of us the operation method of the array. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Half Star is willing to part with it and teach us the entire set of array. We are also willing to pay a sufficient price, we will definitely not let Fellow Daoist suffer a loss!"
A cultivator said to Daoist Master Half Star. While the other four were talking, they intentionally or unintentionally wanted to surround him. Unexpectedly, they saw Daoist Master Half Star stroke a strand of black beard on his chin. His entire body suddenly burst into flames and turned into ashes amidst a chuckle.
"This person is so cunning, he actually used an escape talisman!"
"One step short, but when did such a person appear in the cultivation world? It seems that this person has most likely inherited the orthodoxy of the Seven Star Sect back then!"
A wave suddenly appeared on the surface of a small puddle with a radius of only thirty feet. Li Tong broke out of the water and saw three spells falling on his head in succession. Each spell had the power of a great magical power. At the same time, cold wind blew from both sides, and two fatal means hidden in the wind stabbed toward Li Tong's waist.
"Five people, they really have a good grasp of the position!"
Li Tong casually flicked his right hand, and a beam of sword light slashed towards the top of his head. After that, his left hand slashed in front of his body, and two beams of sword light shot out one after another.
The first sword light slashed through the void, and a portal suddenly formed in mid-air. The three divine arts that were descending on Li Tong's head were swallowed by the portal. After that, the portal gradually opened up, as if a heavenly gate had opened up in the sky. A wave of sword light water descended from it, as if it was a heavenly river descending from the nine heavens.
The heavenly river in front of Lu Ping was like a curtain of a waterfall, knocking down the two strong gales that came attacking him. The descending heavenly river was about to overflow, sweeping out toward the five directions that had attacked him earlier.
"We've lost the initiative, retreat quickly!"
A deep voice rang out, and a figure flashed in all five directions before disappearing again.
Li Tong looked in the direction where the voice came from, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile of praise. "At least you have some foresight. You didn't rely on your numbers to surround and attack!"
Li Tong flicked his finger again, and a beam of light flickered, jumped, and disappeared from his finger like a swimming fish.
What Li Tong used was the famous sword technique of the Koi Race in the cultivation world, "Heaven Gate Sword Formation". This Heaven Gate Sword Formation wasn't just a set of sword technique inheritance. Instead, it was like the "Overflowing Sky Faction's Overflowing Sky Boiling". It was a type of condensation of a massive cultivation system of a faction.
The Heaven Gate Sword Formation was actually a supreme sword technique inheritance of the Koi Race. This kind of sword technique was made up of the "Opening Heaven Gate", "Descending Heaven River", "Heaven Gate Suppression", and "Leaping Heaven Gate". The Essential Energy Sword Technique that Lu Ping had received was merely the basic sword technique of the "Opening Heaven Gate" sword technique inheritance.
Li Tong had already mastered the four major sword techniques of the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation" at the ninth level of the Core Forging Realm. He could be said to be a rare swordsmanship genius of the Koi Race. It was rumored that as long as he could cultivate these four major techniques into the seeds of his techniques when he advanced to the Dharma stage, he would have a high chance of mastering the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation", the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation", and the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation", the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation", the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation", and the "Heaven Gate Sword Formation".
"According to the deductions of the old farts in the race, this place shouldn't be far from the Sage Lake! But there are so many lakes and ponds, and I don't know which one is the Sage Lake Space! This time, the two races seem to have caused too much trouble. Even the Zi Yang Palace has begun to intervene. I don't know if this is considered self-defeating. "
Li Tong looked at the densely packed ponds not far away and could not help but sigh. Even though he was from the Koi Race and was born close to water, it was not an easy task to find the Sage Lake.
Xie Tianyang was originally confident that he would be able to successfully refine the Heaven-level high-grade True Sun Fire in three years' time and achieve a ninth-grade Golden Core. But the sect just had to send him to the river source to investigate the conspiracy of the Pegasus and Koi Race.
What conspiracy could there be? Was it considered a conspiracy to send people to strengthen the security outside the fog array?
Who would not want to fish for more benefits when guarding a treasured land? If this had happened to the Zi Yang Palace, they would have taken everything for themselves long ago. How could outsiders have a say in it?
With one strike of the sword, a cultivator hidden in the dark was killed. The fallen cultivator did not even leave a corpse behind as he turned into ashes.
A cry of alarm sounded, "Xie Tianyang, he's Xie Tianyang, run!"
Several figures fled in panic, for fear that they would be killed by Xie Tianyang's Li Fire Heavenly Yang Sword if they were too slow.
Xie Tianyang glanced at the fleeing people with disdain. This time, the reason why he still followed the sect's arrangements to come to the river source, in addition to the sect's orders, was because of Ma Chenxi and Li Tong.
If there were any cultivators of the same level in the western part of the Central Plains, including the Western Wilderness, that could arouse Xie Tianyang's interest, then it would be Ma Chenxi and Li Tong.
But recently, he heard that a swordsman from the North Sea had escaped unscathed from Ma Chenguang's hands. Now, he was in the river source.
"North Sea's Lu Xuanping!"
The small sword in Xie Tianyang's hand, which was like a small fish, swam even more happily in his hand. This was an unexpected surprise.
Others may not know, but Xie Tianyang knew. In the past, Ma Chenguang had fought with the Fifth Senior Apprentice Brother Shao Chong Jian of the Six Purple Yang Swords. In the end, the two were evenly matched, but Xie Tianyang knew the strength of the Fifth Senior Apprentice Brother Shao Chong Jian. He understood what it meant for a late stage Core Forging cultivator to be able to escape unscathed from such a person.
Lu Ping's right hand pointed at his chest. The Long Stream Sword was like a thin stream of water, wrapping around the Single Horn Flying Stinger several times. Then, the flying stinger suddenly lost its direction. However, the power of the flying stinger still erupted with a strong sharpness. Then, the whole stream of water exploded into raindrops. The Single Horn Flying Stinger was broken, and the Long Stream Sword was also forced back by the power of the explosion.
At the same time, Lu Ping's left hand pointed at the blade light and shouted, "Zha!"
A fiery red lightning descended. Around the lightning, sparks exploded in the air. In an instant, the pale white blade light's sharpness was reduced by half. Then, a series of Third Fire Yin Lightning continued to descend until the blade light disappeared.
At this moment, it seemed that Lu Ping had used all his means and his strength had reached its limit. The two Tenma people hiding behind him suddenly attacked. They attacked from behind Lu Ping, intending to kill Lu Ping in one fell swoop.
Seeing that Lu Ping was about to die under their hands, the two Tenma people, who were very good at sneak attacks, seemed to have already seen Lu Ping's body being pierced and his golden core being crushed by them. Their faces couldn't help but reveal a trace of a sinister smile.
However, the sinister smile on their faces immediately froze. Unknowingly, a huge white jade lotus had appeared beneath Lu Ping's feet. A bright light spread out in all directions. The two Tenma people's divine abilities couldn't even break through the light emitted by the lotus.
Although the Grade 9 White Jade Lotus had only condensed six treasures, it hadn't reached the level of a Spirit Nurturing magic treasure. However, the quality of the White Jade Lotus itself was extremely high. Although it was only a peak Spirit Nurturing magic treasure, its true defensive power was even stronger than a Spirit Nurturing magic treasure with seven or eight treasures condensed.
"Don't fight, quickly retreat!"
The five Tenma people saw that the situation was not good. The cultivator who had blocked Lu Ping in front of them hurriedly shouted. The five people quickly gathered together and retreated toward the depths of the river source.
Lu Ping had been sneak attacked for no reason. Moreover, the sneak attacker was so strong that he almost suffered a loss. Naturally, he didn't want to let it go. However, when he saw the five people forming a formation and retreating without any panic, Lu Ping punched his own palm and let them leave.
If Lu Ping chased after them now, he would naturally be able to defeat the five people one by one. However, the problem was that right now, Lu Ping didn't have time to waste.
"Tenma people, very good. I haven't gone to find you yet, but you came to me first. I will remember this for now. When the matter at the river source is over, I will make you pay!"
Lu Ping turned around and turned into a stream of water that flowed into the big and small ponds of the river source. This time, Lu Ping decided to escape directly through the water and find the real location of Sage Fallen Lake.
This place was called the river source. It was the source of the second largest river in the Central Plains, the Yulan River. Although it was difficult to distinguish the real from the fake, there was one thing that didn't change, and that was that Sage Fallen Lake was the real source of everything.
However, it was extremely difficult to find the source of the water in the entire river source. The mysteries of the river source concealed everything. Even the cultivators of the Koi family couldn't do it in the water, but now, Lu Ping had a way.
The Jade Water Moon Pearl was a rare treasure born from the essence of the water of the world. Even in a magical place like the river source left behind by Jiao Daoren, it could rely on its talent to find the real source of the river source.
