The palace on Frost Island was built by Tian Ling Laozu in the past. Naturally, Lu Ping knew this place like the back of his hand. It only took him a moment to find a secret room. He walked inside and shut the secret room tightly. Then, he knocked on Linglong's wine cauldron. A small spirit vein was drawn out from the spirit vein beneath the palace.
Linglong's wine cauldron was almost exposed. That Wind Asura's fatal blow was even able to cut through the defensive divine ability of the Ninth Grade White Jade Lotus and his protective aura. If Tian Xue Laozu had not suddenly saved him, Lu Ping could only rely on Linglong's wine cauldron to take the blow.
Although the Ling Long Wine Cauldron wasn't a defensive spirit treasure, it was still a spirit treasure. It should be more than enough to block the invisible companion spirit treasure that Lu Ping had weakened to 80% of its power.
Lu Ping could not remember when was the last time he had exhausted his Zhen Yuan to such an extent. However, completely integrating the entire Sea of Hundred Rivers Sword Art and condensing a brand new divine ability talisman within the red glow was still beyond Lu Ping's expectations.
Moreover, this was the first time Lu Ping had used the combined Sea of Hundred Rivers Great Divine Ability. Most of the Zhen Yuan he used was used by Lu Ping to recondense the divine ability talisman in his heart space. It was only natural that his Zhen Yuan would be exhausted so quickly.
As expected, the confrontation outside the island did not last long. When the two Blood Asuras merged back into the wind and water, Tian Xue Laozu also returned to Huang Li Island.
The excited Zhenling cultivators also began to disperse. Wang Qi stared blankly at the empty sea outside the island.
"Are you very disappointed? Do you feel that you will never be able to reach his level?"
Wang Qi raised his head and saw Reverend Du Feng standing beside him.
"All these years, all of us have been trying to catch up to him!"
Du Feng's words seemed to be directed at Wang Qi, but they also seemed to be whispering to each other.
"Ji Xuanxuan, Yin Xuanchu, Xuan Yong, me, Xuan Ling, Xuan Shang, Xuan Lei, and even the other third generation disciples who have been disciples for hundreds of years, such as Senior Brother Xuan Tian, Senior Brother Xuan Yu, and so on, are all chasing after him, hoping to catch up to his footsteps."
At this point, Perfected Du Feng smiled bitterly and helplessly. "However, every time we make some progress, we suddenly realize that we are actually left further behind when he appears."
At this point, Perfected Du Feng turned to look at Wang Qi and patted his shoulder. "You've just started. You still have a lot of opportunities to catch up. Although we're still catching up, we know that our chances are decreasing bit by bit. Our hopes are getting slimmer and slimmer."
Wang Qi said, "I heard that Perfected Lu has already announced that he has accepted Junior Brother Tian Yue as his disciple during the sect's Pill Pavilion Examination."
Du Feng could hear the envy in Wang Qi's words. He smiled and said, "Not really. That Tian Yue's alchemy skills are indeed not bad. He was able to refine Core Forging pills at the Blood Condensation Realm. His talent is not far from Junior Brother Lu's back then. However, he has to at least step into the Core Forging Realm before he can become Junior Brother Lu's disciple. You might have a chance to become Junior Brother Lu's disciple before he does."
Wang Qi smiled bitterly. "How can it be so easy? If I could become Perfected Lu's disciple, I wouldn't have waited until now! Back then, six or seven of us saw Perfected Lu practicing swordsmanship at Visible Sun Peak. After that, we were sent to Huang Li Island by Perfected Xuanyuan in hopes of becoming Perfected Lu's disciple. However, after a few decades, the rest of us have already become Perfected Lu's disciples. Two or three of us have already entered the Core Forging Realm. Only Tian Yue and I are still persevering. Now, Tian Yue, who is the weakest among us, has caught Perfected Lu's eye. And it's because of his alchemy skills. "
Du Feng knew that Wang Qi was unable to see the situation clearly and had misinterpreted the meaning of his words. However, he didn't plan to explain. He said, "Prepare to break through to the Core Forging Realm in seclusion. I'll ask Senior Uncle Xuan Sen to transfer a small spirit vein to your secret room on Frost Island."
Wang Qi said in surprise, "Didn't you say that you wanted me to suppress myself and build a stronger foundation? How come you're allowing me to break through to the Core Forging Realm after just a year on Frost Island? There are many cultivators of our sect on this island, and there are only a few small spirit veins. Senior Uncle, can you ask for a spirit vein from Senior Uncle Xuan Sen? "
Du Feng smiled. "You don't have to worry about the spirit vein. With your strength, you could have formed your golden core a long time ago. You were just preparing yourself earlier."
Wang Qi nodded thoughtfully and said, "Alright then, I'll go into seclusion. Even if I can't become Perfected Lu's disciple, as long as I can enter the Core Forging Realm, I'll have the capital to start my own sect."
Du Feng looked meaningfully at Wang Qi who was walking away and said, "The Core Forging Realm is just the beginning!"
Lu Ping stayed in the secret room for a month. It wasn't because he was recovering his True Essence or sorting out his bloodline, but because he was studying the two great talismans in his Dan Xia that were fused with the talismans and fluctuated around his golden core.
There were two of them!
In reality, when Lu Ping executed the Art of Sea of Mulberry Fields on Huang Li Island, the Dan Xia had already changed. The Water Control Art, Wave Treading Art, Sea Deceiving Art, and Blue Tide Art had merged together in the Dan Xia when Lu Ping executed the Art of Sea of Mulberry Fields and formed a brand new Art of Sea of Mulberry Fields talisman.
Therefore, when Lu Ping executed the Sea of Hundred Rivers Sword Art outside Frost Island this time, he didn't think that it would form a combined talisman on the spot. However, when the talisman started to form, it didn't surprise Lu Ping too much.
Other than these two great talismans, there were also a few other talismans at the edge of the Dan Xia. However, these talismans didn't originate from the "North Sea Wave Listening Art" that Lu Ping cultivated. Instead, they were formed from the other divine abilities and secret arts that he practiced. Therefore, he was forced to stay far away from the Dan Xia by the two great talismans and didn't dare to overstep his boundaries.
After Lu Ping came out of seclusion, he went straight to visit Tian Xue Laozu. From afar, he saw Spiritual Master Xuan Sen walking out of the palace and stopped when he saw Lu Ping.
"How did you do it?"
"What?"
Spiritual Master Xuan Sen's clueless question caused Lu Ping to be a little confused.
"A spirit vein! How did you manage to guide a spirit vein into your seclusion secret chamber without the control of an array disc? "
So it was this matter. Lu Ping looked at Spiritual Master Xuan Sen's serious face and knew that although he didn't take this matter to heart, Spiritual Master Xuan Sen, who was currently in charge of the affairs of Frost Island, wouldn't let it go. If Lu Ping was able to strip the spirit vein from the formation so easily, wouldn't that mean that Lu Ping could collapse the entire island's protective formation at any time?
He didn't think of this at that time. He was too careless!
"Senior Uncle, you forgot that the formation of Frost Island was created by Xuan Chen. Spiritual Master Xuan Chen is also his direct disciple, so this disciple has some understanding of this formation. At that time, the matter was urgent, this disciple used it first." Spiritual Master Xuan Sen also knew about the matter of the Linglong Wine Cauldron. However, only those who could truly subdue her would know what the use of this spirit treasure was. Naturally, Lu Ping wouldn't reveal the use of the Linglong Wine Cauldron. Therefore, he could only use this far-fetched reason.
"So that's how it is!" Spiritual Master Xuan Sen looked at Lu Ping skeptically. However, in these past few years, this little fiancée of Lu Ping had gradually gained a certain status in the sect. Other than Lu Ping, when Tian Shu Laozu tried to take over Huang Li Island, it was because Spiritual Master Xuan Chen firmly controlled the island's protective formation that he was able to preserve twenty percent of the spirit vein in Lu Ping's cave dwelling.
Although Tian Shu Laozu wasn't a formation master, it wasn't that he didn't have any cultivators who were proficient in formations. However, in the fight for the control of Huang Li Island's protective formation, Laozu still couldn't win. This even caused Tian Shu Laozu to think that Spiritual Master Xuan Chen was the one who was controlling the island from behind.
After this incident, everyone in Zhenling started to pay attention to this disciple who already had the strength of a formation master. They realized that she wasn't just a vase hiding behind Lu Ping's back. It was no wonder that every time Lu Ping went out, he would entrust all the matters of Huang Li Island to her without worry.
"Looks like I have to invite Senior Sister Xuan Chen over to repair the island's protective formation. Now that I think about it, this Mother-Child Traction Formation was set up by Senior Sister Xuan Chen when she just became a formation master. No wonder there were some flaws. Now that she has received the formation inheritance from Ying Tian Sect, Senior Sister Xuan Chen has been studying formations for many years. Her progress in the path of formations can be said to be tremendous. I believe that she will be able to set up this Mother-Child Traction Formation even more perfectly!"
After bidding farewell to Spiritual Master Xuan Sen, Lu Ping arrived at the temporary imperial residence. However, he saw that Tian Xue Laozu seemed to be waiting for him.
"Brat, why did you come to Frost Island this time? Don't tell Laozu that I came here to show off your sword divine ability!"
Lu Ping hurriedly smiled and said, "Of course not. With you, Laozu, there's no need for this disciple to show off. It's just that my hands were itching for a moment. This time, this disciple came here with a request!"
"Oh, so it's just that your hands were itching for a moment!"
Tian Xue Laozu purposely missed the last part of Lu Ping's sentence and said, "You went into seclusion in a secret room for more than a month right after you came to Frost Island. Just because your hands were itching for a moment?"
Lu Ping knew that he couldn't hide it from Tian Xue Laozu. He smiled and said, "Senior Grand Uncle's eyes are as sharp as a torch. However, this disciple really didn't think that I would be able to condense a divine ability talisman. It's not like I had no other choice!"
Tian Xue Laozu finally nodded in satisfaction. However, she still asked doubtfully, "Tian Ling doesn't have such a powerful divine ability. From the looks of it, it's similar to when you fused all kinds of great divine ability talismans to form a supreme divine ability. However, you're only at the ninth level of the Core Forging Realm right now. You haven't even condensed your Dharma Idol yet, but you've already reached such a level. It's really surprising!"
Lu Ping didn't know how much Tian Xue Laozu knew. However, she had already understood most of what had happened in Lu Ping's heart space.
Lu Ping hesitated for a moment before probing, "Senior Grand Uncle, you …"
Tian Xue Laozu waved her hand and said, "You don't have to say anymore. Laozu, I don't have any intention of probing your background. I'm just feeling a little emotional. How many Dharma Adepts tried to cultivate a supreme divine ability but failed? You, on the other hand, managed to fuse a great divine ability talisman before you even entered the Dharma Realm. If that's the case, after you condense your Dharma Idol, won't you directly form a supreme divine ability?"
