Chapter 414 The Secret of Vicissitudes of Life
It’s over, it’s late again. For the sake of Sui Qiu’s 4,000 words, please don’t complain. Thank you!

Lu Ping thought for a while and felt that he should ask Patriarch Jiang Tianlin for advice on this issue.
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin already knew that he was coming and was already waiting at the door of his cave.
Lu Ping bowed forward and said, "Master!"
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin saw Lu Ping smile and asked: "How is the scene in Han Iceland? Is it still rewarding?"
Lu Ping also smiled and said: "There is indeed something gained, and I would like to thank my master for giving this opportunity to my disciples."
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin asked again: "Then where does the so-called come from this time?"
Lu Ping told Ancestor Jiang Tianlin about his idea of expanding Huangli Island.
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin pondered for a long time and said: "The Huangli Island has been so prosperous by you and others, which even the sect did not expect. Huangli Island has indeed reached the point of being overcrowded. If Huangli Island wants to prosper further, it is inevitable to expand its scale. It must be done. You can bring this up. Huangli Island has accumulated a huge amount of cultivation resources over the years. I guess you guys have also benefited greatly from it. Master Nephew Hu sells two hemolytic pills every month on Huangli Island. Pill, but your task of refining the blood-melting pill has not been delayed. As the alchemy master of our sect, you have never purchased spiritual herbs of various years from the sect’s spiritual herb garden. It can be seen that it is only one of the spiritual herbs. Xiang, this Huangli Island allows you to harvest a lot of surplus besides your own use. As for other things, I won’t say much."
Lu Ping knew that there was something in his master's words, and there must be something unsaid in it, so he did not interrupt, and just listened to the words of ancestor Jiang Tianlin.
Seeing that Lu Ping roughly understood what he meant, Jiang Tianlin nodded inwardly, but he still felt that the matter should be clarified, so he continued: "There are many discerning people in the sect watching, and now that you have the honor of being a teacher, I am here to guard you. Your strength is not weak, so others will naturally not say anything. But over time, Huangli Island has become a cornucopia. By then, if all the benefits are still in your hands alone, it will inevitably arouse public outrage. After all, Huangli Island is the Huangli Island of the Zhenling Sect, not your Lu Ping's Huangli Island. You took the lead in recovering Huangli Island. But without your help that day, there would be no sect secretly commanding the monks from all over the world to attack and contain the reinforcements coming to Huangli Island. Demon cultivator, why do you defend Huangli Island? Then there is the battle of Huangli Island. Although you and I both know very well that someone must have secretly leaked the news about your seclusion, but without the support of monks from all over the place afterwards, , there are more than six alchemy monks besieging you? Even though Master Xuanchang and others may be dissatisfied with you, they tried their best to come over. If this island belongs to you, Lu Ping, will they still come over?"
This principle is actually easy to think about.
Lu Ping had actually thought of involving the sect before, but he never expected that ancestor Jiang Tianlin would actually talk about the expansion of Huangli Island along with this matter.
Since ancient times, wealth has attracted people's hearts, not to mention cultivation resources. Lu Ping also knows that he cannot monopolize the benefits of Huangli Island alone, otherwise it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction from others over time, and even the sect will have opinions about Lu Ping, even if he does not have any different aspirations. He is also too arrogant and domineering.
After Lu Ping thought about it, he already had an idea in his mind, and asked Patriarch Jiang Tianlin how to expand the scale of Huangli Island.
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin thought for a while and said: "The art of moving mountains and filling seas has been around since ancient times, but they are all earth-shattering magical powers. It is easy to break mountains with a sword, but it is difficult to move mountains and fill seas!"
Lu Ping thought for a while and said: "Huangli Island is just a miniature island now, with a radius of less than ten miles. The disciples have never thought of expanding it into a small island or even bigger. As long as it can be expanded by Just double it.”
Jiang Tianlin nodded and said: "This will make it a lot easier. The difficulty of moving mountains and filling the sea is not in the mountains, but in the veins. Even I can pull in a reef island or the like, but if we bring in its veins together, , I’m at my wits’ end.”
Lu Ping did not expect that there is such a thing as moving mountains and reclamation, but it is appropriate to think about it. The art of moving mountains and reclamation is not just to move a mountain. If a mountain is also connected with spiritual veins, various mineral veins, etc., it is just to move the mountain. If it is moved, the spiritual veins will be cut off, and the mineral veins will lose their ability to breed. What's the use of a barren mountain.
Lu Ping thought for a moment and said, "If this is the case, are there any seniors in our sect who have practiced the art of moving mountains and filling seas?"
"Yes," Patriarch Jiang Tianlin nodded solemnly and said, "The person with the highest achievement in practicing this magical power in our sect is undoubtedly Master Tiankang. However, Master Tiankang was seriously injured by a foreign enemy because of me. Now my life is running out, but Master Tiankang once passed down this technique, and apart from Master Tiankang, the only one who can master the essence of this technique is you, Master Guo Xuanshan."
Lu Ping had previously heard from his teacher that it was because she made a big mistake that Patriarch Tiankang was injured. This time, Master said it was because of his fault. It seems that the matter of Patriarch Tiankang was the same as the teacher's. The master is concerned.
Could it be related to the rebellion between the teacher and his master?
Lu Ping suddenly had such an idea in his mind, and the doubts in his heart deepened. However, he was not stupid enough to ask the ancestor Jiang Tianlin, so he said: "Master, I have a technique. If I change it to the 'Vicissitudes of Life Technique', maybe I can also The effect of moving mountains and reclaiming seas.”
After that, he told Master Jiang Tianlin the "Secrets of Vicissitudes of Life" among the twelve righteousnesses and dharma of Beihai.
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin said in surprise: "This technique is indeed profound and mysterious. It must be a set of magic at the level of great supernatural powers. If you can practice it to the extreme, you can move mountains and reclaim seas."
Lu Ping naturally knew the tyranny of the "Vicissitudes of Life Technique", but he still asked: "How does it compare to Patriarch Tiankang's mountain-moving technique?"
Ancestor Jiang Tianlin glanced at Lu Ping and said with a smile: "There is no level of magic, only there is level of cultivation."
Lu Ping smiled ashamedly, knowing that Patriarch Jiang Tianlin wanted to see whose hand the spell was cast. The "Visible Ocean Art" and the "Haina Baichuan Sword Art" are the only two sets of great magical powers among the twelve righteous and dharma in Beihai. Lu Ping has already cultivated the latter to the state of Dzogchen, while the former is just a glimpse into the magic, and is still far away from achieving great supernatural powers. Moreover, the former is not about one-on-one combat with the enemy, but a large-scale and long-term use of magic. The power of magical powers gradually appears over time.
"However," Ancestor Jiang Tianlin thought for a moment, and then said: "The advantage of the mountain-moving technique passed down by Uncle Tiankang is that it is fast, but the disadvantage is that it is too overbearing. It can only move some reefs or micro-islands. If Moving a small island will inevitably damage the earth's veins; this 'Changing Ocean Technique' is different. The process of performing it several times is extremely long and the effect is slow. However, it can move an island with a larger area than the Mountain Moving Technique. Maybe, and it can protect the earth veins from too much damage, but it also consumes a lot of money on the monks. I am afraid that without the cultivation level of the Dharma phase, there is no way to cast such a spell."
Lu Ping solemnly saluted ancestor Jiang Tianlin and said, "Thank you, Master, for your guidance."
Lu Ping returned to the cave and took the golden house with him from the secret room. The lonely mountain in the golden house had the effect of storing spirits. Lu Ping kept it in the spiritual vein for nearly five years. The spiritual energy stored in the lonely mountain was enough for gold. It remains in the house for fifty days without dissipating.
After explaining to Hu Lili, Lu Ping returned to Tianling Mountain. He first went to Chonghua Mansion to put back the few jade slips he had borrowed from his teacher's cave. After leaving the cave, he went to the small lake outside Chonghua Mansion. After a pause, three slender figures flashed across the bottom of the lake and disappeared into the golden house that Lu Ping was playing with.
Then Lu Ping went to see Master Guo Xuanshan.
Guo Zhenren heard Lu Ping's intention and said with a smile: "Although I have inherited the art of moving mountains from Uncle Tiankang, the fire is not as strong as that of Master Tiankang. It is enough to move some desert islands and rocks. If I move a miniature The island may not be able to handle it, and to use the mountain-moving technique, in order to avoid damaging the earth's veins, many traction formations must be arranged beforehand. Therefore, the preparations made may take more time than the mountain-moving technique. They all grow long."
Lu Ping nodded and said: "Don't worry, disciple. I have already refined some elixirs on Huangli Island that monks in the later stages of forging pills use to restore the true energy in the body. I have left nearly a hundred spiritual stones, and asked Hu Lili to assist my uncle in carving out the traction." Formation, and the master is on the island at this time, and he also promised to assist the master in using the mountain-moving technique."
Master Guo Xuanshan's eyes lit up and he said: "Oh, you are now able to refine the elixirs of the later stage of Forging Pills? That is really a blessing for our sect. There are also masters in our sect who can skillfully refine the elixirs of the later stages of Forging Pills." However, Xuan Yan and Xuan Yue, Xuan Jing and Xuandian could only refine some early-stage elixirs due to insufficient cultivation. Once they started refining the late-stage elixirs, the rate of elixir completion would be very high. It’s just too horrible to look at, and it makes people feel so distressed. I don’t expect that even though you have just advanced to the middle stage of forging pills, you can already refine the late stage pills.”
If Master Guo Xuanshan knew that Lu Ping had successfully refined Zhong Ding Dan and Rong Xin Dan with half-step technique, I wonder what he would think.
Master Guo Xuanshan continued: "Since we have the help of Senior Brother Tianlin, it is not difficult to move a few islands and reefs, but do you have a target to move now?"
Lu Ping smiled and said: "Currently, there are four islands and reefs that we have planned. One of them once gave birth to a miniature spiritual vein. The island also has several places to gather spirits. One of them was originally within the Xuanling Sect's sea area, but now they have become monsters. In the sea area of the clan, there is a small Lingzang earth mineral vein, and there are two isolated islands discovered by the monks who have gone to sea over the years. Two miniature spiritual veins have also been nurtured in it. The island has a gathering place for spirits, and one of them is also A vein of mid-level spiritual materials was discovered, but unfortunately it is relatively barren."
Master Guo Xuanshan glanced at Lu Ping in surprise and said: "I didn't expect you to be prepared. These four islands and reefs are also good. I heard that you have gathered two small spiritual veins on Huangli Island to relocate these four islands and reefs. After coming here, I'm afraid the horse will be put to practical use, no wonder some people say that your Huangli Island is now a cornucopia."
Lu Ping was moved in his heart and said: "Speaking of which, I have something to report to my uncle when I come here this time. Since I opened Huangli Island, I have received great help from the sect. After all, Huangli Island is the Huangli Island of the True Spirit Sect. Huangli Island is expanding." In the future, there will probably be more monks coming and going on the island, and the disciples will not be able to catch up. I hope that the sect can send more monks to Huangli Island, open a market, and control the monks on the island. This will also keep the island in order and allow the sect to gather a larger number. wealth."
Master Guo Xuanshan laughed "haha" and said: "You are indeed a quick-thinking guy. Don't worry, Huangli Island will be run by you after all. Although the island has gathered a lot of cultivation resources, most of them are It is used by monks in the hemolytic and blood refining stages. Just don’t forget to take care of the disciples of the True Spirit Academy. As for the rest, you have the art of refining hemolytic pills. As long as you add dozens of hemolytic pills every year, Who in the sect has the nerve to make irresponsible remarks? As for the cultivation resources of the elixir forging period, which only account for a small part, the good elixirs that you support every year are enough. Who dares to say that you can monopolize more? Occupy the island and become the king?"
With the words of Zhenren Guo Xuanshan, a stone in Lu Ping's heart was relieved. The prosperity of Huangli Island in recent years has indeed made some monks in the sect a little unhappy. Some say that he is arrogant and domineering, and some use his power to bully others. Some say that he Those who want to seize the throne and leave the sect are nonsense, but they are also popular.
But Zhenren Guo's words also reminded Lu Ping. In fact, what the sect wanted was Lu Ping's attitude. After all, most of the things gathered on Huangli Island were only used by low-level monks, and those who were jealous were only a few high-level monks. Rumors may have spread. It was said to them, but in the end it could only be spread among low-level monks who didn't know what was right and wrong. How could high-level monks believe this? It was just to put some pressure on Lu Ping.
Now that Master Guo Xuanshan is the deacon of the sect, Lu Ping has brought this attitude to him. Master Guo Xuanshan naturally also gave some guidance. How difficult is it for Lu Ping to use the elixirs in the hemolysis and blood refining stages? As long as there are spiritual herbs, Lu Ping can easily refine these elixirs, and then give them away to Wangzhenling Villa, or sell them at a low price to the monks in the hemolytic stage of his sect. These rumors will naturally end without any problem, and he can still gain a good reputation.
Lu Ping handed over his hands and was about to leave, but was stopped by Master Guo Xuanshan.
Zhenren Guo's face was solemn and he said, "Will Uncle Tianlu want to take you to the gathering of alchemy masters in Beihai these days?"
As a deacon of our sect, Master Guo Xuanshan naturally knows about these things. Seeing that Lu Ping should be the same, Master Guo said: "The most important thing for Master Tianlu in this gathering is to exchange for the Xuanling Sect's five-year longevity pill formula. Xuanling The sect will definitely sit on the ground and raise the price. If you can help, do your best to help. The ancestor Tiankang of our sect has exhausted his life span and will die soon. The ancestor Tiankang has made great contributions to the sect. The skill of moving mountains is also mine from the sky. You can get it from Uncle Kang, so you have to be careful."
Lu Ping saw that Zhenren Guo spoke solemnly and looked respectful when mentioning Patriarch Tiankang, so he also said solemnly: "Disciple, do your best!"
