CHAPTER 140: CHAPTER 140: STILL RELYING ON SHE QINGQING (PLEASE SUBSCRIBE)

"Distant Mountain, let me lend you a hand as a father."

Seeing the Demon Ape being trapped by the Vermilion Bird Ring, unable to break free for the moment, Lu Ping felt it was a good opportunity and immediately initiated communication.

Upon hearing Lu Ping’s voice, Lu Yuanshan felt much more at ease, thinking that with his father’s assistance, this battle would surely be victorious.

What else was there to worry about?

He was curious about how Lu Ping would intervene, in what manner he would act.

The next moment, Lu Yuanshan felt that the magical power he had consumed within himself suddenly became abundant again.

The fatigue generated by the battle vanished completely at this moment.

Qi blood and magical power had actually been restored to their peak state!

[One-Star - Qi and Blood Recovery].

At this critical moment, Lu Ping was generous and exchanged this option, applying it to Lu Yuanshan to restore his full qi blood and magical power.

"Prepare your ultimate move, unleash your strongest strike, don’t hold back."

After exchanging [One-Star - Qi and Blood Recovery], Lu Ping didn’t stop.

He conveniently exchanged [One-Star - Critical Strike] as well, ready to apply it to Lu Yuanshan.

This option can increase the cultivator’s critical hit damage by 50%.

Although the effect can only be sustained for one move, meaning only one critical strike can be executed.

But one critical strike is enough to teach the Purple-eyed Demon Ape a lesson.

Following Lu Ping’s command, Lu Yuanshan obediently pulled back a safe distance from the Purple-eyed Demon Ape.

"Find the right timing, send it on its way with one strike!"

As soon as Lu Ping’s words fell, a heavy expression crossed Lu Yuanshan’s face, and he injected his magical power crazily into the Qingyin Flying Sword.

Then they both utilized the Taihe Cave Heaven Heart Method and Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword Technique. After charging to the extreme, the Qingyin Flying Sword let out a clear and long sword sound.

Taiyi Celestial Ruins Sword Technique, Heavenly Line!

This ultimate move was unleashed.

At the same time, the critical strike effect provided by Lu Ping was applied precisely to this move.

Under the multiple layers of power augmentation, the might of the Qingyin Flying Sword soared straight to the Second-Layer Foundation Establishment, piercing toward the chest and heart of the Demon Ape at lightning speed.

The Purple-eyed Demon Ape, still trying to break free from the Vermilion Bird Ring, sensed the massive increase in power of this sword, feeling a bit bewildered.

The next moment, the sword approached its chest, less than three feet away.

The Demon Ape’s expression changed with shock; instinctively using its lower body strength, it evaded while simultaneously unleashing the Purple-eyed Divine Light towards the Qingyin Flying Sword, trying to block it slightly.

But the speed of the flying sword was astonishing, as fast as an arrow leaving the bowstring.

Just after the Purple-eyed Divine Light was launched, with a swish, the sword pierced through the Demon Ape’s chest.

In a single stroke, the terrifying sword qi rapidly expanded within the Demon Ape’s chest.

Subsequently, the flying sword carried away a trace of purple blood as it exited the Demon Ape’s body.

The heart was shredded by the sword qi, which continued to surge and ripple within, tearing apart the body. The Purple-eyed Demon Ape let out a painful howl, struggling violently.

The Qingyin Flying Sword sang a clear and long melody, drawing a beautiful arc in the air and returning to Lu Yuanshan’s hand as if it had a spirit.

Lu Yuanshan poised to strike again, intending to deliver another blow to the Demon Ape.

"No need, that’s enough."

Lu Ping’s voice resounded in his mind.

Lu Yuanshan responded with a hum, his gaze fixed firmly on the Purple-eyed Demon Ape. After a few more struggles and wails, its massive body collapsed with a thud, kicking up clouds of dust.

Once the dust settled, the Purple-eyed Demon Ape lay completely still, now dead.

With a wave of his right hand, the Vermilion Bird Ring binding the Demon Ape flickered, detached from the body, soared into the sky, then shrank down.

The Vermilion Bird Ring transformed into a stream of light and returned to Lu Yuanshan’s storage bag.

"Elder Brother."

With the Demon Ape slain, Lu Zhiwei flew to Lu Yuanshan’s side, inspecting him briefly, and relaxed upon seeing that he had no obvious injuries.

Not far behind, Lu Changfeng also approached, standing beside Lu Yuanshan.

Having successfully slain the Purple-eyed Demon Ape, the three of them felt a great weight lifted from their hearts and now looked with growing excitement at the distant Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree.

But when it came time to transplant the Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree, the trio found themselves staring at each other in bemusement, not quite sure how to proceed.

"How about we call She Qingqing over?"

Lu Changfeng scratched his head, scrutinizing the tree’s roots, trying to figure out how to uproot it entirely.

Lu Zhiwei merely watched quietly, unsure how to properly extract it.

After all, with so many Celestial Spirit Fruits growing, damaging the tree would be undesirable.

To be cautious, Lu Yuanshan chuckled awkwardly, "I’ll send a message and call She Qingqing over."

"Let me do it; this matter requires She Qingqing’s expertise."

Without waiting for Lu Yuanshan to take action, Lu Ping immediately initiated communication, summoning She Qingqing.

Upon learning about traveling to the Cyan Mountain Range to transplant a Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree, She Qingqing wasted no time, setting off with various tools like the Spiritual Hoe.

Cyan Mountain Range.

While Lu Yuanshan stayed to guard the Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree, Lu Ping took Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei to meet She Qingqing.

It took another six days after waiting to extract the spirit tree and transplant it back to the Cyan Mountain Sect.

The corpse of the Purple-eyed Demon Ape and its Tier Two Long Spear were also brought back to the sect by the three.

Along with the Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk, Fire Source Stone Vein, and the success in acquiring the Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree, Lu Yuanshan had much to organize.

The Thousand-Year Spiritual Milk, as no one in the sect was planning to undergo secluded cultivation for Foundation Establishment yet, would be well stored for the time being.

The Fire Source Stone Vein was being orderly mined. After more than two months of construction and excavation, the number of Fire Source Stones produced had reached about six hundred and twenty.

One Fire Source Stone was equivalent in value to one Spirit Stone.

According to the exploration of this vein, it could sustain mining for more than ten years.

And as for how much this year’s yield could bring to the sect, it would require a year’s extraction for statistical purposes.

The Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree, meanwhile, had been transplanted back to the Medicinal Garden by She Qingqing, who was diligently caring for it.

Particularly, Li Weixiao, upon discovering the enormous value of this Celestial Spirit Fruit Tree, often hovered around it inspecting for pest infestations, going so far as to nearly sleep under it.

Among all the harvests, one of the most noteworthy was the body of the Stone Mother.

Lu Zhiwei planned to melt it down, along with the Tier Two Long Spear of the Purple-eyed Demon Ape and some Tier One Spiritual Artifacts from the sect, in order to refine a Tier Two Middle Grade Spiritual Artifact.

Moreover, the long spear of the Purple-eyed Demon Ape, being a Tier Two-grade Spiritual Artifact by itself, was also in line for re-smelting and refining into a Flying Sword.

Nobody within the sect was adept at wielding such a style of weapon like a long spear.

Soon after Lu Yuanshan’s attempt, She Qingqing took action, starting her alchemical furnace to produce over ten bottles of Crescent Pills.

The purpose of these Crescent Pills is for distribution to the disciples, one for each, following the same usage method as the last batch.

The rest of the Crescent Pills would be stored in the Sect’s Treasury for the disciples to exchange.

This served as one of the ways to incentivize disciples to render service and contribute to the sect.

In the past, the Cyan Mountain Sect’s lack of sufficient disciples led to the closure of the Merit Hall, which initially served to cultivate disciples through an established merit system.

Following a conversation with Lu Ping, Lu Yuanshan decided to change this approach, after eventually finding him.
