Nine Lives: Unbeatable Dragon Blood

Chapter 22 Plunder

Right after Lu Ping left, found a place, and took out the map for a closer look, a dazzling red light suddenly came from the north. It reached the sky above Xuanqi Island in an instant and covered the whole island with an overwhelming force. With that, it seemed to have discovered something, retracted quickly, and plunged into the attic while flickering.

The disciples fell into a tumult. Lu Ping knew that it was Zhenren Qu who was in real charge of the action arrived.

A moment ago, Lu Ping knew in the attic that he was right about the action. True Spirit Sect was well prepared before they came, and dealing with those spies was just an excuse. But the discovery of that spiritual mine seemed to have accidentally complicated the whole thing.

After a while, the two Immortal Seniors flew out of the attic in a hurry, summoned the disciples, and said, "We've received an order from Zhenren Qu. All the disciples set out immediately to attack and occupy the seas and islands within the jurisdiction of Xuanqi Island. If you encounter any cultivators of the Xuan Spirit Sect, kill them immediately. If you meet someone you can't defeat, especially the leader of "Tongxiu League", Zhang Zhihe, send us a signal quickly. Immortal Senior Du and I will come to you soon."

All the disciples said yes loudly. This time, they dare not be careless. All of them activated their magic weapons and flew to the places around Xuanqi Island.

Lu Ping was going to the southeast. There was a miniature island thirty miles away from Xuanqi Island. The miniature spiritual mine on it had a daily output of about sixty spiritual stones. According to the rules of the Xuan Spirit Sect, they would collect the spiritual stones every five days which were three hundred spiritual stones. This island was one of the most important islands except Xuanqi Island.

However, Lu Ping didn't know what cultivation the cultivator stationed there had. He stuffed a wound healing elixir into his mouth, thinking that even the other side was at the peak of the ninth level of Blood Dissolving, he would fight against him!

The islands in the sea were divided into four levels. Those with a radius of about three miles were miniature islands, and those with a radius of about fifteen miles were small islands. The medium-sized islands had a radius of thirty to sixty miles. Large islands had a radius of one hundred and fifty miles, and giant islands had a radius of three hundred miles.

True Spirit Sect was a large sect in the northern sea. Its base camp was a large island that had a radius of two hundred and seventeen miles around. However, there was a large spiritual vein on True Spirit Island, which was cultivated by the True Spirit Sect for thousands of years and was enough for the current development of the True Spirit Sect.

Lu Ping used a fleeing magic weapon, a small spiritual boat, and arrived at the miniature island called Huangyu Island in only thirty minutes.

He specially flew to a high place to overlook the island and found that the island was quiet. Because it was night, only a few lights on fishing boats were still on in the places where ordinary people lived.

Lu Ping pondered for a moment, took out the clothes of the disciple of Xuan Spirit Sect, put them on, and rushed to the place marked on the map. He knew that the residence of the disciple stationed on the island was certainly not too far from the spiritual mine.

Just when Lu Ping was 250 meters away from the place marked on the map, a cold voice suddenly came from behind a stone in front of him, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Lu Ping felt he was lucky. If it weren't for the clothes of Xuan Spirit Sect on him, the man hid behind the stone would have attacked him.

Lu Ping pretended to be anxious and said, "Senior, it's me. Immortal Senior Zhao Lingqiao encountered something urgent. He asked me to tell you to rush to Xuanqi Island."

"Oh, I see," the man answered and then said, "But what is the urgent thing?"

Lu Ping cursed secretly and then went on with the lie, "Immortal Senior Zhao said that True Spirit Sect might come to attack Xuanqi Island. He wants the nearby senior disciples who station on the islands to provide support quickly. He has sent the cultivators of "Tongxiu League" to deliver the message to our sect."

The person behind the stone finally walked out and said, "I was wondering why you were so anxious and rushed straight to my station. That explains it!"

Lu Ping looked at the cultivator walking towards him and felt smug. But hearing this, he immediately panicked and said, "So you have been following me."

The man shook his head and said, "It's an Early Warning Magic Figure covering around Huangyu Island. After you got on the island, you touched the Magic Figure, so I knew it."

Looking at the cultivator who stopped in front of him, Lu Ping said with a smile, "I see. I thought you had reached the Blood Dissolving stage and cultivated Divine Mentality Coercion!"

The man shook his head and said with a wry smile, "It's not that easy. I made great efforts to collect several spiritual herbs for refining blood dissolving elixirs. I don't even know when I can get the rest."

Lu Ping was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "In that case, you'll die!"

Before he finished speaking, a sword light had rushed out. The cultivator was caught off guard and greatly frightened. He could only throw out the highest-grade magic steel to resist while exclaiming, "You're not from our sect. Who are you?"

Lu Ping said with a fierce look, "Someone who will kill you here!" While talking, he threw out two highest-grade Blood Magic Figures without giving the cultivator a breathing spell.

The cultivator's magic steel was slashed in two by Lu Ping's sword. The cultivator saved his vitals but had a sixteen-centimeter-long gash on him by Lu Ping. The cultivator took out a tower-shaped magic weapon, but before it could be activated, it was knocked away by two Blood Magic Figures. The power of highest-grade Magic Figures was only a little weaker than that of a blow from experts at the Blood Dissolving stage, and they were powerful.

Lu Ping stabbed the cultivator with the sword again and stopped him from taking out magic weapons from his storage bag. The cultivator had to perform spells with his both hands and threw out four or five magic methods in an attempt to slow Lu Ping's attack.

Lu Ping pasted a highest-grade Blood Magic Figure on himself, and then he no longer cared about defense, but just concentrated on attacking.

Seeing that the magic methods couldn't hurt Lu Ping at all, the cultivator couldn't help but curse in despair, "You used highest-grade Blood Magic Figures. How despicable you are!"

There was no telling he cursed Lu Ping like that because Lu Ping used Blood Magic Figures or lied and sneaked up on him.

Just after he cursed, Lu Ping chopped his head off with a stroke.

Looking at the gushing blood column, Lu Ping was still not used to such a scene though he had killed several people. He picked up the two storage bags from the cultivator and then got out of there quickly.

He went to another place on the island to collect dozens of kilograms of spiritual grains. Although there were some spiritual materials in other places, it was not time to reap. Lu Ping simply turned around and flew to another island.

On the way, Lu Ping looked at his booty. There were one hundred and sixty spiritual stones in the bag which was used to contain spiritual stones. Cultivators stationed on the island could get 20% of the resources produced on the island. That cultivator probably had taken out his portion.

Sixty kilograms of spiritual grains were only worth twenty spiritual stones.

There were some good things in that cultivator's storage bag. The tower-shaped magic weapon was actually a medium-grade defensive magic weapon, which surprised Lu Ping. Fortunately, Lu Ping had reacted quickly and knocked the magic weapon away with a Blood Magic Figure, otherwise, it would be a long and hard fight.

Then he solved the problem of changing magic weapons when he reached the ninth level of Blood Refining. Although he could use medium-grade magic weapons at the time, he couldn't control them with ease. His magic power was stronger than that of ordinary cultivators, which allowed that to happen. Otherwise, he couldn't even use medium-grade magic weapons at all.

Besides, there was a low-grade attack magic weapon, wolf's fangs mace, which looked very powerful.

And there were three bottles of muddy blood elixirs, the highest-grade elixirs for cultivators whose cultivation at the ninth level of Blood Refining. They were much better than the elixirs Lu Ping had seen before.

Moreover, there were three five-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs that could be used to refine blood dissolving elixirs. Although Lu Ping had obtained two kinds of them before, he could still exchange them for blood dissolving elixirs in the True Spirit Sect. Twenty-four kinds of five-hundred-year-old spiritual herbs were needed for making blood dissolving elixirs. Even if you only had one kind of them, you could exchange them for blood dissolving elixirs after you got eight of this kind.

There were nearly two hundred spiritual stones. Guarding the spiritual mine was really a lucrative job. The guard could cultivate with the best elixirs and save such a large number of spiritual stones.

Another one was a jade slip for making Magic Figures. That cultivator of Xuan Spirit Sect could make such a rare Early Warning Magic Figure at the Blood Refining stage, which indicated that he was probably also very good at making Magic Figures.

Lu Ping put the jade slip on his forehead and read it. He could make most of the Magic Figures mentioned in it. There were some summaries of that cultivator's experience in making Magic Figures. Besides, the making method of Early Warning Magic Figures made Lu Ping salivate.

As for other spiritual materials and sundries, Lu Ping was no longer in the mood to count them.
