With the Water Repellent Pearl suspended above his head, Lu Ping could clearly sense all the minute fluctuations in the surrounding water flow. Then, Lu Ping followed the Water Repellent Pearl and sensed traces of abnormalities in the water flow, all the way to the depths of the river source.
At the same time, Ma Chenxi was holding a map in her hand, seemingly proofreading the changed topography of the river source one by one. Laozu was cursing the clan elders in a low voice, but he had no choice but to search one by one according to the few places that the Laozu had deduced that Lake Sage might appear.
As for Xie Tianyang, he was like a sun at this moment, emitting waves of heat from all over his body, as if he wanted to roast the river source dry. White mist rose into the sky, and Xie Tianyang's body emitted waves of white light at this moment, as if he was performing some kind of secret magic.
Lu Ping's body turned into flowing water, wrapping the Water Repellent Pearl and moving about in various pools of water. At the same time, he was trying to find the true source of the river source from the minute differences in the water flow.
A giant hand suddenly reached out from above the water flow, grabbing towards the Water Repellent Pearl in the water flow. Unexpectedly, the water flow around the pearl suddenly turned into a wave of swords. Countless sword lights flashed with a sharp radiance, and before the owner of the giant hand could react, it was torn into pieces.
There was a cry of surprise, and a giant fin slapped towards the water flow around the Water Repellent Pearl, but the surrounding water flow suddenly formed a hollow water ball. Although the fin had smashed the water ball, the Water Repellent Pearl in the center of the water ball was still unharmed. However, the scales on the fin, which was being retracted, were torn to pieces by the sword qi in the water ball, and were dripping with blood.
A giant koi carp stirred up a huge splash in the pool of water, and streaks of blood stained the splash. The koi carp appeared to be in a panic, and quickly swam in the water, as if it was avoiding something.
Waves rose on the surface of the water, as if weaving a huge water net on the surface of the water, sealing off the koi carp's escape route. Then, three water snake-like shadows could be seen at the bottom of the water, pressing towards the koi carp.
Lu Ping calmly watched the battle in the water. A seventh level Core Forging Realm koi carp clearly didn't discover that the pearl contained such danger, or perhaps because it discovered the extraordinariness of the pearl, it was greedy and forgot the existence of danger. This koi carp's magical power was directly broken by Lu Ping from the start, and it was injured.
As for the rest of the matter, Lu Ping summoned Samling, and asked the three of them to meet a top-level Demon Clan direct descendant of Jiao Daoren.
"Green Sea Snake, you are the Green Sea Snake, why are you here!"
Sure enough, they were the same race as Jiao Daoren. When Samling first appeared, the koi carp discovered the identity of Samling. Samling simply transformed into his original form, and prepared to fight with the koi carp.
The cultivation of the koi carp was higher than Samling, and it had crossed the threshold of the middle stage of Core Forging Realm, while Samling was only at the sixth level of Core Forging Realm. However, Samling did not show any weakness. The tacit cooperation honed through dozens of fights allowed Samling to chase after the koi carp, even though its strength had been damaged by Lu Ping.
Lu Hai took the lead. After his cultivation advanced to the sixth level of Core Forging Realm, the Profound Halberd in his hand could finally exert its power in his hands, and he used it to block the attack of the koi carp.
Although the koi carp only had a cultivation of the seventh level of Core Forging Realm, it also had a Spirit Nurturing magic treasure in its hand. It could be seen that the status of the koi carp clan was not too low.
However, the koi carp was not holding a water attribute Spirit Nurturing magic treasure in its hand, but a wind attribute Wind Facing Whip. This made the eyes of Lu Bi, who had always been calm and had the demeanor of a big sister, light up, and a trace of expectation appeared on her face.
Lu Hai had the Profound Halberd in his hand, and Lu Ling 'er had the Ice Ring from Qin Xue Laozu. Only Lu Bi did not have a suitable Spirit Nurturing magic treasure. Although the cultivators that Lu Ping occupied the mountain also obtained two or three, they were either seriously damaged in the battle, or not suitable for Lu Bi to use, so they could only give up.
When Lu Hai and Lu Ling 'er saw the koi carp take out the Wind Facing Whip, they immediately planned to snatch the magic treasure and give it to their sister.
"Alright, the three of you, finish this quickly. We still have important matters to attend to!"
Lu Ping saw that in order to prevent the magic treasure from being damaged, Samling had reduced the strength of his attacks. Although he was still suppressing the koi carp, he was still unable to cause any harm to it, so he said impatiently.
Lu Ling 'er complained a little, Lu Hai was a little hesitant, but Lu Bi had already used the magic treasure in her hand to attack the koi carp with all her might.
Lu Hai and Lu Ling 'er hurriedly followed, only to see a white light shoot out from behind Samling, but there was an attack that landed on the koi carp before Samling did. The koi carp was immediately fixed in the water and was instantly killed by Samling's subsequent attacks. The Wind Facing Whip, on the other hand, was unharmed and was happily put away by Lu Bi.
Lu Ling 'er stepped forward and rummaged through the storage magic treasure of the koi carp. She said somewhat dejectedly, "Father, there are no records of the Heavenly Gate Sword Formation!"
Lu Ping nodded, as if he had already expected this. The Heavenly Gate Sword Formation was the famous sword technique of the koi carp clan in the cultivation world. Such an inheritance must have been recorded in the inherited memory of the koi carp clan.
And the reason why Daoist Master Jin Li recorded the sword technique in the jade slip and was obtained by Lu Ping, was it because there was a problem with the inherited memory of Daoist Master Jin Li?
With a trace of doubt, Lu Ping was about to continue searching along the mysterious power he felt in his bloodline, but this feeling became intermittent after Lu Ping entered the source of the river. With no other choice, Lu Ping entered the water and relied on the Jade Water Moon Pearl to search for the real source of the river through the subtle changes in the water flow.
"Hey, what is this?"
Lu Ping was about to continue sensing the source of the water flow when he saw Lu Ling 'er rummaging through it and finding something that looked like a tattered map.
Lu Ping was startled. This tattered map looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before. It was just that after such a long time, it was difficult for him to recall it.
"Ling 'er, let me have a look at this map fragment!"
Lu Ping held the map fragment in his hand and scrutinized it for a moment. Then, he rummaged through his interspatial ring and took out another map fragment made of the same material. However, the map fragment in Lu Ping's hand was much more intact than the one in his interspatial ring. Obviously, it hadn't been passed through many hands. On the other hand, the map fragment from the koi carp's body had obviously been passed through many hands. That was why it looked so tattered.
Lu Ping put the two map fragments together, and a seamless map appeared in front of Lu Ping. The map fragment in Lu Ping's hand occupied three-quarters of the entire map.
The map fragment in Lu Ping's hand was obtained from the Koi Carp Zhenren who died in his hands. Although Lu Ping had suspected that this map fragment contained some secrets, because a quarter of the map was missing, he did not know what the map was used for.
Now that he saw the complete map, Lu Ping finally understood. It turned out to be a map of the river source. To be more precise, this map described the situation in Lake Sage.
As for how to find Lake Sage, although the map also mentioned it, because of the repeated changes in the terrain of the river source, it was a bit difficult to find the location of Lake Sage through the clues marked on the map.
But when Lu Ping combined the Water Avoidance Moon Pearl with the map, and combined it with the faint bloodline connection, he immediately confirmed the direction he was heading in. Then, he headed straight for the lake in the northeast direction.
Most of the river source was connected by water and grass, and there was a meadow in the northeast that was over a hundred feet in radius, which was extremely rare in the river source.
At that moment, Ma Chenxi stood above the meadow, holding a map similar to the one in Lu Ping's hand. He was thinking about something carefully.
A moment later, Ma Chenxi put away the map in her hand and laughed silently. "Who would have thought that the great Lake Sage would only appear as a palm-sized puddle this time? Furthermore, it's hidden in such a large patch of meadow."
Ma Chenxi descended. At his feet, there was a small puddle the size of a palm hidden in the meadow. If one did not look carefully, no one would believe that the Lake of Fallen Sage was hidden in this small bay.
"Indeed, no one would think of it, but someone would find it. Haven't you and I found it now?" Ma Chenxi was about to cast her magic to enter the Sacred Lake, but she slowly turned around when she heard that. She looked into the distance and said, "Brother Li, you came much later than I expected!"
Li Tong's figure appeared in the distance, and he said loudly, "It doesn't matter if I'm late, as long as I don't go in late."
Ma Chenxi laughed involuntarily and said, "Brother Li must be joking. Putting aside the fact that it's first come, first served, even if Brother Li wants to fight for the chance to enter first, can you really get what you want? Don't forget, the entrance to Lake Sage is right under my feet! "
What answered Ma Chenxi was an earth-shaking sword whistle. The flying sword in Li Tong's hand was like a swimming fish, drawing a sky-piercing sword light in the sky, as if it was going to split open a door in this world!
One of the four great magic powers of the Heavenly Gate Sword Formation, the Great Magic Sword Technique Opening the Heavenly Gate. The True Qi Sword Technique that Lu Ping mastered was one of the basic sword techniques of this great magic sword technique.
"When you and I had just advanced to the late stage of the Core Forging realm forty years ago, we fought to a draw. Today, let's have a good fight and see who can go further in these forty years!"
"Haha, that's great! Hundreds of years ago, when the land of the river source opened, Jin Wuyou of your Koi clan was defeated by my father. The Flood Dragon Blood Stone was obtained by my father, and Jin Wuyou was never able to recover from that setback. My father is now the patriarch of the Pegasus clan, and the Tenma people are becoming more and more prosperous with each passing day. Today, you, Li Tong, will definitely be defeated by me and repeat the mistakes of Jin Wuyou. I only hope that you won't be abandoned by the Koi clan like Jin Wuyou. Otherwise, the cultivation world will have one less opponent, and won't it be lonely? "
