The Greatly Compassionate and Merciful True Person Lu

Lu Ping sat down opposite him at the stone table.

"Young friend Si, please have a seat."

Qi Cangshu stood to one side.

In the Alchemy Hall, Si Wangshu gave him face, and the two sat on equal footing.

Given the current situation, Qi Cangshu is not suitable for sitting.

At this table sits a Golden Core True Person of unknown origin and a noblewoman from the Si Clan of the Azure Dragon Upper Domain.

He, the elder of the Alchemy Hall Greenwood Sect, suddenly became a background figure.

Si Wangshu spoke first.

"Is someone looking for me?"

Lu Ping didn't speak. He closed his eyes for a moment, and a memory flashed through his mind.

Then, he began to recite a passage of scripture.

Those were the scriptures that Wuming recited when he removed the Blood Curse from the Zhao Household for him.

Lu Ping naturally did not know the Secret Method of Great Forest Temple.

However, the Golden Core's Divine Sense is enough to imitate the scriptures of Wuming to a great extent.

Then, Lu Ping secretly used his Spiritual Power to create a phantom image in the courtyard.

Behind him, a mountain temple could be vaguely seen.

Peach blossoms are in full bloom in front of the mountain temple.

A fleeting image of a peach petal drifted down along with the scriptures.

When the lingering shadow of the peach blossom fell to Si Wangshu's hand, her fingertips stopped.

In the shadows, that wisp of energy stirred slightly.

Si Wangshu stared at the lingering shadows of peach blossoms by the mountain temple for a long while before speaking.

"Great Forest Temple."

Qi Cangshu's heart sank suddenly.

Having cultivated Daoism for a hundred years, he had naturally heard of the Domain of Chaos and the Great Forest Temple.

That's not a place where the Greenwood Sect can be touched.

He originally thought Lu Ping was just a rogue Golden Core Rogue Cultivator from the Upper Domain, hiding in the Greenwood Sect to avoid trouble.

It now seems that there may be Buddhist Sect connections behind this True Person.

How did this desolate place, Greenwood Sect, manage to attract the attention of so many powerful forces at the same time?

Si Wangshu rose again, this time with impeccable manners.

What is your relationship with Great Forest Temple?

Lu Ping did not answer the question.

He simply raised his hand and tapped the medicine box next to the Formation Plate.

"Dew-Congealing Grass, White Bone Vine, Kongqing Sand, and Red-Sleep Flower Pollen."

Si Wangshu's eyes flickered slightly.

These medicines are not considered compatible.

Some have a stabilizing effect on the pulse, some have blood-activating properties, some have a buffering effect against Spiritual Power impact, and some have a milder medicinal effect.

Individually, they are all good medicines.

But when placed together, it didn't resemble any of the Pill Formulas she knew.

Lu Ping added another sentence.

"Fetch another serving of Azure Jade Marrow Liquid."

Si Wangshu paused for a little longer this time.

The Azure Jade Marrow Liquid is not something that Border Region sect like the Greenwood Sect can casually offer up.

Lu Ping opened his mouth to ask for it, but his tone was as if he were asking for a dish of water.

Qi Cangshu stood to the side, his heart sinking slightly.

He understands the names of the medicines.

It is precisely because I can understand what I hear that I can't understand what I read.

Si Wangshu raised her hand, and several jade boxes flew out of her Storage Ring, landing in front of Lu Ping.

"Only three drops of Azure Jade Marrow Liquid remain."

That's enough.

Lu Ping took out the Moon Palace Fire-Devouring Furnace.

As soon as the low-grade Law Treasure was placed on the table, the patterns on the four Azure Toad toads began to glow faintly.

Qi Cangshu immediately took half a step back.

Law Treasure Pill Furnace.

The Greenwood Sect even registers a decent high-grade magic Law Artifact, the Pill Furnace, in its inventory.

This True Person casually took out his Law Treasure Pill Furnace.

This is like pressing the entire Greenwood Sect to the ground and saying, "You know nothing of your own poverty."

Lu Ping raised his hand, Southern Bright Separation Fire entered the furnace.

Several medicinal herbs were added to the furnace in sequence.

Lu Ping was going to refine the "Peach Blossom Meridian-Calming Pill".

Without the lineage of Great Forest Temple, he naturally could not replicate the authentic Peach Blossom Meridian-Calming Pills.

But in the simulation, Lu Ping ate three.

It wouldn't be a problem to reverse-engineer a "pseudo- Peach Blossom Meridian-Calming Pills" that has 60% of the medicinal properties.

Third-Grade Alchemist is no joke.

[The Artisan Spirit takes effect.]

[Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement effective.]

[My I Love Working is now in effect.]

[Overtime work effective.]

Half an hour later, the stove lid made a soft creaking sound.

Three pale pink pills rolled into the jade plate.

The courtyard fell silent instantly.

The pill was no bigger than a fingertip, yet its surface had very faint peach blossom patterns that flashed and disappeared in an instant.

Si Wangshu looked at the pills in the jade plate. As the direct descendant of the Si Clan, she not only had some understanding of the major forces.

They naturally had some knowledge of the signature products of the major powers.

Not to mention that the Si Clan also made their living through Alchemy Technique and knew all the Pills in the world like the back of their hand.

After a long pause, Si Wangshu finally spoke slowly.

"The secret medicine of Great Forest Temple, Peach Blossom Meridian-Calming Pills, has the effect of replenishing the foundation of one's spiritual practice."

Even the faint aura lurking in the shadows finally showed a noticeable fluctuation.

At this moment, Lu Ping's identity as a disciple of Great Forest Temple was beyond doubt.

Lu Ping offered no explanation whatsoever.

He simply withdrew the fire from his fingertips, his expression as calm as if he had just refined a batch of ordinary Qi-Replenishing Pills.

After a long while, Lu Ping slowly spoke.

"I have some karmic connection with Wuming."

Si Wangshu pressed her fingers against the edge of the jade plate.

"Wuming?"

Lu Ping nodded.

He will soon be traveling in the Azure Yang Central Region.

The moment those words were spoken, the entire courtyard fell silent.

Si Wangshu naturally knew that Master Wuming was the current administrator of Great Forest Temple.

Great Forest Temple differs from other sects in that it does not judge people's spiritual progress based on their cultivation level.

Throughout history, some have Qi Refining and entered the Nascent Soul world, while others have returned to temples after achieving Nascent Soul stage.

When traveling outside Great Forest Temple, it's perfectly normal and reasonable to have Guardian, fellow travelers, and pre-arranged informants.

She came to the Greenwood Sect by herself; she didn't come alone.

Qi Cangshu stood to the side, becoming even quieter.

Wuming.

Great Forest Temple.

Azure Yang Central Region.

The Si Clan.

Qi Cangshu felt that he really shouldn't be here today.

Lu Ping continued speaking.

I will stay here for a while.

"I'm here to greet the Si Clan and avoid any misunderstandings later."

Si Wangshu glanced at the Peach Blossom Meridian-Calming Pills in the jade plate, then looked intently at Lu Ping.

What does the senior want me to do?

"I've lived in the mountains for a long time and am a lazy person."

"Going forward, traveling in the Azure Dragon Domain without Third-Grade Alchemist status will be inconvenient in many ways."

Qi Cangshu's eyelid twitched.

Third-Grade Alchemist

Not to mention the Qingling Border Region, even in the entire Qingyang City, there are only a handful of Third-Grade Alchemists.

Si Wangshu did not show any surprise, nor did she immediately agree.

"Senior, the Heavenly Certification Alliance isn't owned by our Si Clan."

Lu Ping raised his hand, took out another Jade Slip, and pushed it in front of her.

"Take a look at this first."

Si Wangshu scanned the area with his Divine Sense and suddenly stopped.

The Jade Slip contained the final version of the Spirit-Urging Pill, which Lu Ping had improved during the simulation.

Medicinal properties are broken down into layers.

Pre-positioning of a steady pulse.

Formation Technique impact adaptation.

Every change she made was stuck at the point where she found it most difficult to push forward.

She was in charge of the Spirit-Urging Pill project, so she naturally understood the significance of this Pill Formula.

Si Wangshu looked at Lu Ping without immediately looking away.

The recipe for the Spirit-Boosting Pill was exactly what she needed most right now.

But precisely because it's so accurate, it inevitably arouses suspicion.

A Golden Core cultivator who claimed to be connected to Great Forest Temple arrived at the Greenwood Sect and just happened to bring out the improved Pill Formula for the Spirit-Urging Pill- Boosting Pill that she needed most.

What a coincidence!

Si Wangshu spoke slowly.

"Why does the senior possess a formula for a spirit-stimulating pill with such potent effects?"

Lu Ping glanced at her, his expression unchanged.

He didn't explain where the Pill Formula came from, but simply murmured a Buddhist chant.

In that instant, the illusory image of the mountain temple behind him seemed to faintly reappear for a moment.

The peach blossoms have not yet fallen, and the eaves bells are silent.

Lu Ping's voice was calm, yet it inexplicably carried a hint of compassion for humanity.

"These kinds of Pills are extremely dangerous."

"I've heard that several major Lineage in the Upper Domain are secretly conducting experiments."

"If we let them continue to explore uncharted territory, most of those who die will not be direct descendants of noble Aristocratic Clan, much less True Disciple sects."

"They are those Rogue Cultivators with nowhere else to turn, Outer Sect Disciples of sects in Border Regions, and impoverished cultivators who risk their lives for a breath of Spiritual Qi."

As Lu Ping finished speaking, he lowered his eyes slightly.

"My intervention to make improvements is merely an act of compassion from Buddha."

"It will only reduce the amount of killing."
