Lu Ping returned from Lingcang Pavilion with more than a dozen spiritual stones and eight blood purifying elixirs in his hands. Spiritual stones were auxiliary in cultivation and were hard currency, while blood purifying elixirs could purify True Spirit Blood and improve cultivation.
Lu Ping was a disciple of True Spirit Academy. Strictly speaking, he was neither an outer disciple of True Spirit Sect nor an inner disciple. True Spirit Sect trained them for free from childhood to adulthood. Unlike the outer disciples, he didn't need to be self-reliant. Disciples like Lu Ping were cultivated to be the reserve force of True Spirit Sect. If Lu Ping couldn't reach the ninth level of Blood Refining within 15 years, he would become an outer disciple and have to serve the sect while being self-reliant.
In True Spirit Academy, disciples were divided into three levels, and every five years were considered a session. Lu Ping had been in the academy for nearly ten years and was a second level disciple. The second level disciples needed to reach the fourth level of Blood Refining. If Lu Ping failed to reach the sixth level of Blood Refining in the tenth assessment, he would lose his position as a third level disciple and become an outer disciple.
When the second level disciples reached the fourth level of Blood Refining, they would be rewarded two spiritual stones per month. When they reached the fifth level of Blood Refining, besides two spiritual stones, they would be rewarded one blood purifying elixir per month. When they reached the sixth level of Blood Refining, besides those things, they would be rewarded two more spiritual stones. The seventh level was a watershed, which was difficult to be reached. After they reached it, they would enter the late stage of Blood Refining, and their strength would improve greatly. At that time, the reward would be six spiritual stones and three blood purifying elixirs.
The sect also rewarded disciples who reached the late stage of Blood Refining with 10 spiritual stones and doubled the reward for those who reached the late stage of Blood Refining before the age of eighteen, supposedly because disciples who reached the late stage of Blood Refining before the age of eighteen had a better chance to reach the Blood Dissolving stage.
Lu Ping didn’t know whether the rumor was true or not. He only knew that few people could reach the Blood Dissolving stage. Once they reached it, they would formally become inner disciples of True Spirit Sect, formally learn Cultivation Methods of True Spirit Sect, and became an example of the outer disciples.
There were thousands of disciples in True Spirit Academy, and about a hundred of them could reach the ninth level of Blood Refining every year. However, few people could succeed in building the foundation. Disciples who did that would make a sensation in True Spirit Academy.
Lu Ping exchanged ten spiritual stones for five blood purifying elixirs, and then he had sixteen spiritual stones and eight blood purifying elixirs. In the past, He always used them up early in cultivation, but this time, except for the basic consumption, he still had some left.
He needed to prepare for the second level Grand Competition.
Grand Competitions were a way for cultivators to gain cultivation resources. It was not only a competition for the sect’s rewards to the individual, but also a competition for teams' cultivation resources. If teams made excellent performance in the Grand Competition, they could obtain more resources. Half of the resources would go to the leading Immortal Seniors of the team, and the rest would be distributed to the disciples.
This was also why Immortal Senior Liu was quite delighted when he knew Lu Ping had reached the seventh level. The top ten disciples of their respective teams would participate in the Grand Competition. This was only a basic requirement. The disciples who had reached the seventh level could also participate in the competition regardless of their rank.
In some powerful teams, there were already more than ten people who had reached the late stage of Blood Refining!
Lu Ping returned to the hut, swallowed a blood purifying elixir as usual, held a spiritual stone in his hand, and began to cultivate. After a period of time, the spiritual stone turned into powder, and the medicinal power of the blood purifying elixir had been refined.
Lu Ping did not rush to improve his cultivation, but reviewed the foundation of the first level of Blood Refining to the seventh level and firmly consolidated it. He did this every time after he made breakthroughs. So, his foundation was very solid.
However, Lu Ping still felt that his cultivation had improved significantly. He let out a breath of turbidity. This was something normal after he made a breakthrough. It would become more and more difficult to make breakthroughs in the future. In the later stage of Blood Refining, each level was a hurdle. It was normal to be unable to overcome them in three to five years.
Lu Ping opened the wooden box on the table, took out a piece of yellow spell paper from it, unfolded it on the table, and then took out a piece of graphite and some strange wooden tools. He kept making invisible drawings above the yellow spell paper. Following the Magic Figure patterns in the "Elementary Magic Figure Mastery", he lightly drew the Magic Figure with graphite.
It was difficult to draw Magic Figures, and it was even more difficult for cultivators in the Blood Refining stage to do it. The patterns of Magic Figures were complicated and no mistakes were allowed while he was drawing them. Otherwise, even if he drew them, their power would be affected. However, Lu Ping had solved this problem by using these tools.
"Hehe, this might be the advantage of being a time traveler," Lu Ping thought with a smile.
Lu Ping knew that these were all just petty shrewdness. After reaching the Blood Dissolving stage, the cultivators would develop Divine Mentality Coercion and these tools would become useless. The cultivators with Divine Mentality Coercion could draw standardized Magic Figures without using tools.
Lu Ping took out the brush used to draw Magic Figures. The brush was made from the hair on the tail of the top-ranked monster. There was a simple Spirit Gathering Circle on the brush, which could better transmit spiritual strength to it.
Lu Ping dipped the brush in the spiritual ink blended with spiritual spring water, fine cinnabar and the blood of the first-class monster Earth Spirit Turtle. He slowly injected his Bloodline Spiritual Strength into the brush, and slowly drew the Magic Figure, following the traces he had drawn earlier.
With the completion of the last stroke, Lu Ping let out a long breath. He did it! It seemed that the improvement of his cultivation had an impact on the success rate of making Magic Figures.
Feeling the spiritual strength contained in the Magic Figure and the power it radiated, Lu Ping was surprised and delighted. It had the top quality, which was the best Magic Figure that a cultivator could make at the Blood Refining stage.
Lu Ping thought for a while, pierced his finger, and dripped a drop of his Fine Blood on the Magic Figure. The dark red Magic Figure suddenly became bright red, as if to rush out of the paper.
This was the method Lu Ping learned in Cangjing Pavilion. It could increase the power of the Magic Figure but at the cost of cultivation. Fortunately, cultivators of Blood Refining relied on Bloodline and their cultivation was in Bloodline. Therefore, they had more Fine Blood than other cultivators, so they suffered a lighter loss. If the Magic Figure was not top-grade, Lu Ping would not have sacrificed this drop of Fine Blood.
He meditated to recover his lost energy and spiritual strength. Then he made nine more Magic Figures. Unfortunately, none of them were top-grade. They were only two high-grade Blood Refining Magic Figures, two medium-grade and three low-grade Magic Figures. He made mistakes while drawing the other two, so they were scrapped.
If other cultivators knew that he had such a success rate in making Magic Figures, they might exclaim in surprise.
Lu Ping thought for a while, dripped his Fine Blood in the two high-grade Magic Figures, turned them into Blood Magic Figures, and then put the three Blood Magic Figures in another box. In the box, there were already several high-grade Magic Figures of Blood Refining.
Lu Ping put the medium and low-grade Magic Figures in a package, which had contained dozens of them. What was in this package was the fruit of Lu Ping's work for a month.
Although the cultivators in the academy could enjoy the allowance from the sect for free, the allowance was far from enough for cultivation. Therefore, the cultivators had their own ways to earn spiritual stones. Making Magic Figures was Lu Ping's way.
Since he reached the fourth level of Blood Refining, he made Magic Figures every three days. With continuous practice and research and some small skills, he went through the initial stage of losing spiritual stones to the stage of earning them. Otherwise, with his ordinary aptitude, he would never become one of those first-class cultivators.
After making the top-grade Magic Figures, Lu Ping, who was exhilarated, kept trying to make them in the next month. Unfortunately, he only succeeded twice, but his success rate of making high-grade and medium-grade Magic Figures increased greatly.Early in the morning at the end of the month, Lu Ping walked to the market outside the academy with a package full of Magic Figures.The Grand Competition was around the corner, so the market was very lively. Some cultivators of Foundation Building were flying through the sky, attracting envious looks.Lu Ping handed in a spiritual stone, found a place in the market, put on the mask he took from the management cultivator, and opened his package. There were thirty-six low-grade Magic Figures and thirty-six medium-grade Magic Figures. The six high-grade Magic Figures were placed on top of them. They could be used as auxiliaries and in powerful attacks and defenses. In fact, Lu Ping didn't want to sell t
In the hut, Lu Ping remembered the power of "Landslide" when he tried it out in the wild. He couldn't help but smile, and soon that smile changed to a wry one. The power of "Landslide" seal was great, but once he urged it, the spiritual strength stored in his Bloodline would reduce by almost a half. What an interesting weapon.The Grand Competition was only three months away, and he would spend the three months mainly on cultivating. The cultivation of magic methods shouldn't be left behind, either. After all, the Grand Competition was not just about cultivation.Fortunately, he still had a lot of spiritual stones and elixirs, which was barely enough for this month's cultivation. This was something that had never happened before.In a blink of an eye, two months passed, and Lu Ping's cultivation did not improve as slowly as he imagined. On the contrary, he reached the middle stage of the seventh level of Blood Refining.In Lu Ping'
Lu Ping slowly withdrew his power and let out a light red breath which was the poison residue of the blood purifying elixir. He threw the discarded spiritual stone aside. Feeling the power of Bloodline that was about to reach the late stage of the seventh level, Lu Ping was slightly excited.In yesterday's competition with Li Cheng, Lu Ping found Li Cheng’s flaw at the 22nd move, then counterattacked in one fell swoop, gained the upper hand, attacked Li Cheng with eight moves in a row. He locked Li Cheng's spear at the 30th move and cut his wrist with a stroke, forcing him to drop his spear and admit defeat.Li Cheng, who looked invincible, was defeated in an instant. The disciples who were applauding Li Cheng were dumbfounded. Even the top-ranked disciples and Immortal Senior Liu's deputies were also surprised. A few disciples who were at the same level as Lu Ping looked at Lu Ping even more vigilantly.Lu Ping couldn't help smiling bitterly.
The promotion assessment was soon over, and Lu Ping passed it easily.In the last month, three more people in the seventh team reached the sixth level of Blood Refining. There were already thirty-four disciples who reached the sixth level of Blood Refining in the seventh team. However, looking at Immortal Senior Liu’s silent look, Lu Ping strongly doubted whether any of these three people made the breakthrough by forcibly taking a lot of elixirs and using spiritual stones despite the poison residue and the Bloodline's endurance.Although the sect would still train and foster them as usual, such an overly radical method would leave the cultivators with internal injuries. In the future, it would be much more difficult for them to reach the late stage of Blood Refining than for ordinary people.There were still twelve people who were at the seventh level of Blood Refining, and they did not bring surprises to Immortal Senior Liu anymore, but
The old man was in a cyan priest frock, and he was the dean of True Spirit Academy, Zhenren Xuan Yong who was at the Alchemy stage.He looked amiable and approachable and was highly respected by the disciples and Immortal Seniors of the academy. He was standing on the ring with two middle-aged cultivators who were dressed like Taoists on his left and right.Taoist Xuan Yong said with a smile, "Our disciples have been cultivating hard. All the Immortal Seniors, you all did a good job!"The Immortal Seniors quickly said they were flattered.Taoist Xuan Yong pointed at the two people beside him and said, "I guess you know these two people, but the disciples probably don't. So, let me introduce them."After that, pointing to the thin and tall cultivator on his left side, he said, "This is Zhenren Xuan Su." Then he pointed to the red-faced cultivator on his right and said, "This is Zhenren Xuan Ce."All
Lu Ping blamed himself for jinxing it secretly while taking out a high-grade Blood Magic Figure "Vajra Magic Figure" from the pocket of his cuff and pasting it on his body. Then he was enveloped by a golden light which was mixed with red lines, as if he was wearing a set of golden armor.The three crystal ice blades hit the protective golden light one after another. After a piercing sound was heard, the three ice blades turned into pieces of ice all over the ground. Although the golden light on Lu Ping was dimmed, it still covered him all over and protected him firmly.Li Sheng thought Lu Ping would try his best to defend and would even get injured if attacked by his high-grade Magic Figure, so that he could gain the absolute upper hand. Unexpectedly, Lu Ping also took out a high-grade Magic Figure to offset his attack, which made the moves he had prepared become useless. He was speechless. It was like hitting on the cotton with an all-out punch.
Lu Ping did not give Li Sheng any more opportunities to gain the upper hand again, and his attack became more and more fierce. Li Sheng had no chance to use his high-grade Magic Figures, let alone the magic weapon in his hand. He only attacked Lu Ping with a few low-grade and medium-grade Magic Figures but didn't even shatter the golden light on him.In the end, Li Sheng recognized that Lu Ping's high-grade Magic Figure was a Blood Magic Figure. To his surprise, Lu Ping didn't begrudge spiritual stones spent on Magic Figures. It seemed that he was not short of spiritual stones.Li Sheng was stabbed in the shoulder by Lu Ping. The Immortal Senior who presided over the match had already put his magic power on Li Sheng and blocked Lu Ping’s magic steel. Lu Ping withdrew his sword and stood in situ. The Immortal Senior announced that Lu Ping was the winner and could enter the next round.In the second round in the afternoon, Lu Ping's oppone
Lu Ping attacked Yuan Zhan with three Blood Magic Figures. Yuan Zhan inwardly cursed him for being wasteful. The disciples below the ring were surprised. Lu Ping used four Blood Magic Figures in such a short time. What a generous man!Yuan Zhan's "Earth Wall" was just a common Magic Figure, which could not resist the attack of Blood Magic Figures. He quickly pasted another "Earth Shield" Magic Figure on himself and took out the last high-grade Blood Magic Figure he had. The Blood Magic Figure turned into a fire dragon, swallowed the "Fire Crow" Magic Figure and then exploded.At the same time, Yuan Zhan sent out several streaks of Sword Qi to break another "Water Binding" Magic Figure. Therefore, he had no time to resist the "Falling Stone" Magic Figure. Three huge stones weighing more than a thousand pounds hit Yuan Zhan's two protective Magic Figures and smashed them into pieces. Yuan Zhan was also beaten and forced to retreat by this powerful forc
When Jiang Xuanxuan once again took out a peculiar talisman from among the storage spells, the demonic cultivator who had been besieged by Jiang Xuanxuan and Lu Qin's joint attack finally changed color: talisman, she really did have a talisman!Jiang Xuanxuan did not hesitate to excite this talismanic artifact, and a figure suddenly stepped out from amongst the spiritually flickering talismanic artifact, this person's large sleeves fluttered, his crown and sash, as if he were a high-minded recluse who was free from the world, and his expression was joyful, as if he was composing a song and walking, walking slowly over in the direction of the demonic cultivator at the head of the group.The demon cultivator in the lead finally ran out of steam, he had participated in the Dharma Phase Conference of the Golden Jiao Island's Island Master back then, so he naturally knew who this dashing and handsome middle-aged man with a dashing figure was.The leader of the demon cul
The role of talismanic treasures for cultivators of the Forging Dan stage is far from as great as that of the Blood Solubility stage, but that also depends on who made the talismanic treasures, the talismanic treasures made by an early stage Forging Dan cultivator naturally can't be compared to those made by a late stage Forging Dan cultivator.The talisman treasure in Jiang Xuanxuan's hand might not have been able to cause damage to a mid-Forging Dan cultivator, but it was enough to cause him to be in a sorry state, and if it wasn't for Jiang Xuanxuan's inexperience in dealing with the enemy, and in the end she didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, then the demon cultivator in the lead wouldn't have been in one piece as he was now.However, for the leader of the demon cultivators, what was frightening was not the kind of vigor with which Jiang Xuanxuan treated the talismanic treasures as if they were still talismans, but rather the people who might
Huang Li Island said big, said small but also not small, Lu Ping god idea is strong, if it is in the usual, standing in the center of the island can barely will be the entire Huang Li Island within the scope of their god idea, however, at this time Lu Ping is not only away from the Huang Li Island, and all of the god idea is used to the demon cultivator in front of the real man, where there is still time to take into account too much of the matter.Lu Ping heart although some apprehension, but not panic, the little sister although not experienced life and death combat, however, a forging Dan two layer of cultivation but can not be false, and Lu Ping does not think that the body of the little sister will not have two ancestors give the baby defense, not to mention her side there is a green luan bird Lu Qin to do the helpers, of course, the most important thing is that just now the little sister's receiving the enemy long whistling in the sound of the slightest anxiety, at the s
Just as Yu Hua was about to flee, he felt a sudden darkness in the sky, and in Yu Hua's eyes of disbelief, the "Landslide", which had already been condensed by Chen Lian's second Treasure Prohibition, came roaring down.Fresh blood suddenly overflowed, Yu Hua real person looks as if he was fished out from the blood water, the recluse light under his feet suddenly changed from green to blood red, his speed instantly increased by several times, and he rushed out from under the shroud of the "landslide".However, the Yu Hua real person who had just felt that he had just escaped from the sky had not yet had time to celebrate, only to see Lu Ping behind him stretching out his palm and violently pushing forward, and the "landslide" that had fallen vertically from the sky suddenly fell diagonally in the direction of Yu Hua's real person who had escaped.Among the loud bangs, the landslide swept the tail of the recluse and smashed into the sea outside Huang Li Island, caus
Lu Ping from the Qu Xuan Cheng real person's cave came out, did not go to Chen Lian there, but straight out of the Xuan Qi Island, in the outside of the island of a reef on top of the plate for a few moments, the surface of the sea suddenly surged up a huge wave, and then the three looks like powder carving the general human body serpent-tailed dolls stepped on the sea waves toward Lu Ping.Only after a few moments did Lu Ping get up and return to Xuanqi Island.At Chen Lian's cave on Xuanqi Island, Yao Yong, Du Feng, Shi Lingling, Ji Zixuan, Yin Zichu, Zhong Jian, Ma Yu, Zhang Zicheng, Zheng Jie and others had been waiting for a long time, together with Chen Lian, Hu Lili, and Lu Ping, there were as many as ten people whose cultivation had reached the Forging Dan Stage, and only Zhang Zicheng and Zheng Jie were still at the peak of the Blood Dissolving Stage and had not yet broken through. In addition, there are also Hu Lili's several sisters, all of them are under the
Lu Ping froze for a moment, just remembered that day Lu Ping will help Qu Xuan Cheng real people from the demon cultivator's array of trapped, at that time Qu Xuan Cheng real people will say to give themselves some benefits, Lu Ping Yuan thought that just Qu real people casually say, not first to Qu real people really prepared for their own benefits.The elders give, where to resign! Lu Ping, with a hint of excitement, entrusted Hu Lili to go and greet the group loudly first, and he himself was the first one to go toward the cave of the real Qu Xuancheng.As soon as Realizer Qu Xuan Cheng saw Lu Ping, he laughed loudly, "Kid, I heard that you've been in the limelight again lately?"Lu Ping was a bit embarrassed and said, "Last time was a bit of a last resort, that is, the disciple did not know that he would actually have such good luck."Qu Xuan Cheng real person pointed at Lu Ping and laughed, "You kid is good at getting a bargain, I heard that your top grad
Lu Ping from the heavy hall out before, Liu Tianling old man once if there is a reference to inform Lu Ping, master refiner is able to control the faction of the upper level of the Dan furnace thing, originally Lu Ping thought that this is just the teacher is afraid of their own mistake such benefits, but when Lu Ping into the Dan room to see the center of the placed that the Dan furnace, only then it suddenly realized that the teacher's words actually have another finger.The original intention of the two ancestors of the Heavenly Furnace and the Heavenly River was to use this upper-order furnace in exchange for a period of time to use the Nachuan Tripod, although this upper-order furnace should have been in Lu Ping's hands, but Lu Ping has not come to collect, obviously does not know about this matter, the two ancestors intend to do a cheap favor, although there is a deception of the suspicion of not knowing the bottom line of Lu Ping, but the two ancestors will only be the
Under the excitement of Lu Ping in the refining of the second furnace of blood dissolving dan, once again performed the art of dan outside of dan, another twelve blood dissolving dan in the courtyard of the disciples in the heavenly cheers out, coupled with the previous Tao Xuanfang refining of eight blood dissolving dan, the courtyard of the grand competition of the first thirty-two disciples actually each can get a blood dissolving dan reward, this is the True Spirit Sect of the courtyard of the grand competition of the past has never been the big money!Water Sword Immortal and Alchemy Master Lu Xuanping had actually accomplished the art of refining the Dan Externalization of the Blood Dissolving Dan at the end of the Grand Competition of the Other Courtyard while demonstrating the art of alchemy, and naturally, such news would not be hidden, and it would soon be spread by cultivators who had the heart to do so, and the entire cultivation community of the North Sea would ge
Today was destined to be Lu Ping's stage alone again!Lu Ping did not know that the True Spirit Sect's Alchemy Master also has the qualification of being in charge of an upper-order furnace. Originally, after Lu Ping became an Alchemy Master, the Alchemy Pavilion should have taken the initiative to make these things clear, but because of the intentional neglect of the Heavenly Furnace lineage of cultivators who were in charge of the Alchemy Pavilion, Lu Ping did not know anything about it.Therefore, when the more than half a person high Nanchuan Tripod was taken out by Lu Ping from the storage ring, the huge three-legged tripod body landed on the central ring shocking the ground was a tremor, and at the same time trembled all the cultivators on and off the stage.Realist Xuan Fang was even staring wide-eyed at the ancient, calm, and atmospheric Nachuan Cauldron on the ring, and at this moment, no one could be more aware of the significance that a top-ranking Dan F
