CHAPTER 197: CHAPTER 197: THE SITUATION CHANGES

The Cyan Mountain Sect isn’t poor anymore?

How come when it comes to Lu Yuanshan, he immediately displays two Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts?

Looking at the Tang Family, not to mention Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts, they don’t even have a single Tier Two High-Grade Spiritual Artifact!

"Cyan Mountain Sect..."

For a moment, Tang Zhixian felt a sense of bitterness, and couldn’t help but form some new impressions of the Cyan Mountain Sect.

The Cyan Mountain Sect truly seems to be rising, getting better and better.

Just having someone with the strength of Lu Yuanshan already surpasses the Patriarch of the Tang Family.

Was it too impulsive for me to leave the Cyan Mountain Sect back then?

Just considering this, Lu Yuanshan moved into action again not far away.

After skillfully removing the Demon Bead from the Enchanting Demon’s body, he soared into the air once more, wielding another Magical Artifact in the form of a Treasure Bottle, striking towards a Tier One Evil Demon ahead.

The Primordial Magnetic Divine Light burst forth, with unparalleled might, precisely piercing the opponent’s head.

The opponent fell instantly!

"..."

Tang Zhixian was dumbfounded again.

Is this... another Tier Three Spiritual Artifact?!

How does Lu Yuanshan have so many Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts?

As soon as this question arose in his heart, a Loose Cultivator from the same team yelled a reminder beside him.

"Tang family’s boy, squinting around and dazed here, do you want to die?!"

The tone was full of dissatisfaction.

Tang Zhixian snapped back to reality, instantly feeling a chill down his spine, secretly scolding himself for being careless.

He paid too much attention to Lu Yuanshan over there and forgot to guard his surroundings.

If an Evil Demon ambushed him, he could really die here.

Putting his thoughts away, Tang Zhixian dared not be distracted anymore, steering his Tier One Middle Grade Flying Sword, fighting fiercely against a Tier One Evil Demon nearby.

His current ability is at the Sixth-Layer Qi Cultivation level, so his chances of survival here aren’t very high, relying on collaboration and help from his comrades.

At this moment, two more Flying Ships descended from the sky, bringing batches of new teams, all belonging to D-level Teams.

Among these, Lu Yuanshan’s Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and even a few Crystallization Cultivators, each had Tier Two Evil Demons to clear out.

Crystallization Cultivators against Tier Two Evil Demons was straightforward; it was like crushing them.

The performances of other Foundation Establishment Cultivators were also generally good.

Lu Yuanshan’s side, however, was remarkable in performance.

Four Tier Three Spiritual Artifacts in hand, with Lu Ping’s guidance, they hardly wasted any extra effort, each move was highly effective, without any drag.

In just two hours, Lu Yuanshan gained results that made Lu Ping quite satisfied.

A total of fourteen Tier Two Evil Demons and eighty-nine Tier One Evil Demons were slain.

The time was the same, excluding Han Yunsheng’s few Crystallization Cultivators, the number of slain Evil Demons exceeded three hundred.

Among other Foundation Establishment Cultivators, no one achieved the number Lu Yuanshan did.

Of course, achieving such results was undoubtedly thanks to Lu Ping.

While Lu Yuanshan was still fighting, Lu Ping roamed around, specializing in picking off solitary demons, targeting those demons Lu Yuanshan could handle.

Encounters with strong demons, mid-stage Foundation Establishment or later stage, Lu Yuanshan would immediately avoid engaging.

This saved time and energy.

Occasionally, Lu Ping could act as Lu Yuanshan’s eyes, directing him to execute moves, pointing out where to attack.

In terms of combat experience, Lu Ping far surpassed Lu Yuanshan.

If Lu Yuanshan could reach the Crystallization Stage, he would undoubtedly claim the title for best performance on the field.

Time flew by, Zhan Xinghuo piloted the Flying Ship descended again, bringing a new batch of D-level Teams, while taking Lu Yuanshan and the others back to Celestial Fire Palace to restore Magical Power, designating the next action.

Wei Yuan and Tang Zhixian’s teams, which came along with Lu Yuanshan, were naturally taken away together.

Once everyone boarded the Flying Ship, Zhan Xinghuo counted the attendees.

In general, the losses weren’t big, with sixteen casualties and thirty-three injuries.

Tang Zhixian and Wei Yuan, though disheveled and stained with blood now, ultimately didn’t fall here.

As he saw Lu Yuanshan appear safely on the Flying Ship, Wei Yuan grunted to himself, thinking Lu Yuanshan truly had a big fate, and then showed no other reaction, quietly recovering.

Tang Zhixian also glanced at Lu Yuanshan twice, still not making an effort to greet him.

On the contrary, Han Yunsheng appeared very enthusiastic, proactively engaging with Lu Yuanshan, asking if he was hurt and offering some Healing Elixirs.

"Thank you, elder, I’m fine."

Lu Yuanshan was very modest, smiling gently while shaking his head.

...

After returning to Celestial Fire Palace to recuperate, everyone seized the time to restore their Qi Blood Magical Power to peak condition.

Celestial Fire Palace was generous, distributing appropriate Qi Recovery Pills and Blood Supplement Powder to the returning cultivators according to their strength situation.

Lu Yuanshan received a bottle of Tier Two Middle Grade Blood Supplement Powder, specifically for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, which had magical effects.

It is said that this Blood Supplement Powder is a secret concoction of Celestial Fire Palace.

Merely consuming one pellet, after refining, within less than a quarter of an hour, Lu Yuanshan felt his consumption of seventy to eighty percent of his magical power quickly restored, reaching peak Qi Blood status.

If the Cyan Mountain Sect could obtain the refining method for this Blood Supplement Powder, and produce these elixirs themselves, not just would they benefit sect disciples greatly, they could also make significant profits by selling them externally.

Unfortunately, Celestial Fire Palace doesn’t leak a bit of the refining method for such elixirs.

Even after knowing the effects of Blood Supplement Powder, Lu Ping scrutinized the elixir, yet still couldn’t deduce which herbs were used for its refining.

So he let it go.

"Prepare well, the place appointed for the next mission might still be uncertain."

"If unlucky, being sent into the Celestial Fire Forbidden Area isn’t impossible."

"The B-level Teams in the Celestial Fire Forbidden Area must deal with demons at the Tier Three level, yet there’s no shortage of Tier One and Tier Two Evil Demons either."

Lu Ping hovered beside Lu Yuanshan, offering a reminder.

"Wait here for me, I’ll return soon."

Having given instructions, while Lu Yuanshan rested, Lu Ping didn’t continue waiting quietly.

He decided to go out and scout the situation.

Currently, the Celestial Fire Palace is very safe.

Just the resting area for Lu Yuanshan and his team, in this palace named Purple Extreme Hall, is guarded by two Golden Core Ancestors, constantly standing by in the hall meditating.

Lu Ping floated out of the hall, heading into the Celestial Fire Forbidden Area.

He spent some time surveying this area and understood its situation fairly well.

Meanwhile, he heard some news.

Recently, the number of Outer Realm Demons emerging from the Lost Vortex has increased, significantly affecting the B-level Teams in the Celestial Fire Forbidden Area with a considerable challenge.

Celestial Fire Palace discussed strategies for this, preparing to send a portion of strong C-level Teams to the Celestial Fire Forbidden Area to assist B-level Teams in resisting the foes.
