Mortal Alchemy

“What a pity.” In the waterside pavilion, Ling Xiao said:

“Junior Brother Chengping broke free from the Heavenly Fox's illusion control, but didn't manage to obtain the Vajra Wrath Fruit.”

His gaze swept over Bai Jianjia.

In this Changtian Secret Realm, Chen Ping was the strongest in terms of combat power.

Chen Ping risked such a great danger to obtain this fourth-order Vajra Wrath Fruit, obviously for Bai Jianjia.

Luo Kui said: “Junior Brother Chengping even lost that Crimson-Eyed Tiger King. This is the first time he has suffered such a big loss since entering the Changtian Secret Realm.”

Bai Jianjia's beautiful face showed no emotional fluctuations: “Every demon beast guarding fourth-order spiritual herbs is extremely difficult to deal with. Even if we Golden Core cultivators enter, we may not be able to gain any advantage.”

“To ask Junior Brother to snatch the fourth-order Vajra Wrath Fruit from the mouth of a top-tier demon king, the difficulty is indeed too great!”

She didn't blame Chen Ping. Chen Ping's combat power was already in the first echelon among Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If he still couldn't obtain the fourth-order spiritual herb, then there was really nothing that could be done.

But Bai Jianjia didn't believe that Chen Ping would give up just like that. She thought that Junior Brother should think of another way to see if he could obtain a fourth-order spiritual herb.

No one noticed that the Heavenly Fox had already begun chasing Chen Ping while riding the Crimson-Eyed Tiger King.

……

On the airship.

Chen Ping returned to the deck and took out the mother-child magical artifact to check, preparing to meet up with Zhou Ying:

“Now that three third-order spiritual herbs are in hand, and one fourth-order spiritual herb has also been obtained, the next step is to collect more points, so as to win the first place in the Changtian Secret Realm.”

“In that case, I can obtain even more third-order spiritual herbs.”

There are still ten months left, and with the cooperation of the tiger pack, it should be enough.

For Chen Ping, this trip to the Changtian Secret Realm was already complete.

The airship sped onward.

After more than half a day, Chen Ping met up with Zhou Ying and Pei Fengge.

Chen Ping said: “For the rest of the time, I will collect spiritual herbs with you.”

……

Qi Feiyang of the Demon Subduing Sect was leading twenty Demon Subduing Sect disciples to search for spiritual herbs everywhere, and also to kill some demon beasts to exchange for points.

His luck was not bad. After entering the Changtian Secret Realm, he quickly summoned all twenty of his fellow sect brothers.

In front of a spiritual river, there was a tempting fragrance of spiritual herbs. Qi Feiyang's expression was solemn: “Ten Thousand Snake Formation, this is where the third-order Snake King is located.”

There was a third-order spiritual herb in this spiritual river, and even a fourth-order spiritual herb, as well as countless snake demons. These were all points, which were extremely tempting.

“Let's search for spiritual herbs and demon beasts elsewhere. We are no match for this Snake King.”

If there were a hundred Demon Subduing Sect disciples here, he could still form the Myriad Swords Homage Formation to compete with this Snake King, but he only had twenty disciples here.

“Let's go!” Qi Feiyang led the twenty Demon Subduing Sect disciples away.

Under the spiritual river, a pair of huge and terrifying snake pupils stared at the direction Qi Feiyang left.

Qi Feiyang led the twenty disciples to change direction. Three days later.

A Crimson-Eyed Tiger King appeared, and on the tiger king's body, there was a figure of a person.

Qi Feiyang's expression froze: “Uncle Chengping of the Eastern Xuan Sect?”

The snow-white Heavenly Fox King on the back of the Crimson-Eyed Tiger King said:

“I know the location of a fourth-order spiritual herb, are you willing to kill demons with me and snatch that fourth-order spiritual herb?”

Qi Feiyang pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: “Thank you, Uncle Chengping, for leading the way.”

The location of fourth-order spiritual herbs often has third-order spiritual herbs and many second-order spiritual herbs.

It seemed normal for Chen Ping to ask him to join forces.

……

In the waterside pavilion.

“Bastard! Utter disgrace!” The Golden Core cultivator of the Demon Subduing Sect's face darkened and he cursed:

“What is Qi Feiyang doing? The Crimson-Eyed Tiger King is carrying the Heavenly Fox King, how could he lead his disciples to follow this beast?”

The expressions of several Golden Core cultivators of the Eastern Xuan Sect were subtle:

“How is this Heavenly Fox King controlling Junior Brother Chengping's spirit pet, and even taking away the disciples of the Demon Subduing Sect?”

“Is this Heavenly Fox King impersonating Junior Brother Chengping?”

“This Heavenly Fox King is truly vicious and sinister!” Bai Jianjia's beautiful eyes sank.

……

Chen Ping was searching for second-order spiritual herbs with Zhou Ying and Pei Fengge.

Suddenly, a whimpering sound came from Chen Ping's sleeve.

Chen Ping frowned: “Brother Ferret, are you saying that the Heavenly Fox King we encountered is leading a group of cultivators towards where we are?”

“The Crimson-Eyed Tiger King is also with them?”

“Squeak squeak!” Treasure Seeking Ferret.

Chen Ping's face was a little subtle:

“Could it be that this Heavenly Fox King used illusions on the Tiger King, allowing the Tiger King to lock onto my scent and bring cultivators to kill me!”

It should be known that he signed a spirit pet contract with the Tiger King, and the life and death of the Crimson-Eyed Tiger King was entirely in his hands.

For Chen Ping, this Crimson-Eyed Tiger King was not that important to him.

Chen Ping's face sank, and he immediately called back Zhou Ying. As for Pei Fengge, she was in a more distant place.

Zhou Ying was using her divine sense to search for spiritual herbs. Chen Ping summoned her back, her beautiful eyes full of incomprehension: “Senior Brother, what's wrong?”

Chen Ping said: “Trouble is coming, let's hide first.”

Chen Ping summoned the White Jade Airship and took Zhou Ying into the air.

After a cup of tea.

Chen Ping's expression was a little strange.

From a distant distance, the Heavenly Fox King was sitting on the back of the Crimson-Eyed Tiger King, followed by twenty Demon Subduing Sect disciples.

“This Heavenly Fox King not only bewitched the Crimson-Eyed Tiger King with illusions, but also lured away the Demon Subduing Sect disciples?”

“This is troublesome.”

Chen Ping's expression was solemn, and his eyes were like sinking water: “This Heavenly Fox King's illusion magic is extremely powerful. If we fight them, we might be controlled by this Heavenly Fox King's illusion again and fall into the illusion.”

“And right now, there are still ten months before the end of the Changtian Secret Realm.”

Chen Ping had to guard against the Heavenly Fox King's illusion and must maintain a certain distance from the Heavenly Fox King.

He had to think of a way to solve this Heavenly Fox King, or just keep dragging it out until the end of the Changtian Secret Realm.

Let's drag it out first.

Chen Ping urged the White Jade Airship to turn into a stream of light and shot away into the distance.

……

“This little thief is so sensitive, he actually escaped like this?”

“He can run away, but he can't run away from the temple! Chase!” The Heavenly Fox King was extremely annoyed.

“Can this fourth-order spiritual herb actually run?” Qi Feiyang frowned.

In their sight, the fourth-order spiritual herb that had just appeared actually flew away. This was too surprising!

The voice of Chen Ping resounded in the ears of the Demon Subduing Sect disciples: “No need to be alarmed, the cultivation world is so big, there are all kinds of strange things!”

“But this spiritual herb can run away, but it can't run away from the temple!”

“Everyone, nephews, if you capture this fourth-order spiritual herb, you will receive key training from the sect, and there may even be an additional Nascent Soul cultivator. You must not let this spiritual herb run away!”

“Let's chase!”

Chen Ping's words were like demonic sounds, and immediately made every Demon Subduing Sect disciple's blood boil.

“Buzz buzz buzz!”

Sword energy erupted, and a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators turned into streams of light, soared into the sky, and chased after the spiritual herb!
