Jiang Ping withdrew his gaze and ultimately did not invite the old monster to spar.
He was afraid that he might accidentally break Old Deng's body and then be unable to afford the compensation.
At this moment, he felt relaxed and his expression was peaceful.
Finally, he stood firm in the Nine Heavens, his strength leaping forward dramatically; the exhilaration was indescribable.
Call out!
Jiang Ping took a step forward and arrived in front of Falling Moon City.
At this moment, the power of the True Saint was still present, and True Saint Lu Cun had not yet withdrawn his methods. The entire city was shrouded in a barrier filled with the patterns of laws.
As Jiang Ping touched the barrier, he felt an immense pressure wash over him, and his mind seemed to explode as a towering tree grew within him.
He raised an eyebrow. That Lu Cun was an extremely strong existence even among True Saints, almost reaching the peak.
But...
Sulfuric acid!
Like the terrifying Heavenly Might exploding, Jiang Ping unleashed his Peak sword strike, and boundless Sword Intent surged at the city gate.
Upon seeing this, everyone's expression changed.
The old monsters who were initially targeted were all sweating bullets, exclaiming in surprise, "This kid wants to challenge Lord Lu's authority? Does he think he can rival that being?"
Even someone like him could contend with a True Saint, but this refers to powerful individuals who have just entered the True Saint Realm.
Lu Cun, for example, had already surpassed the initial stage and had mastered nearly 90% of the Great Dao Order.
Even Xiao Ran, Upper True Disciple, Magic Power, let alone a young upstart who had just broken through the Nine Heavens.
In the tower behind, Lu Cun also noticed this scene, and his expression changed slightly. He was about to withdraw his magic when he saw an explosion coming from the city gate.
Rumble!!
If Myriad Jun Thunder were to resound simultaneously, the blinding beams of light would cause a cataclysmic change in the heavens and earth, tearing apart the clouds and revealing the boundless Milky Way.
Lu Cun's lips twitched; that junior had truly pierced a hole in his True Saint Barrier.
Jian Chen watched as Jiang Pingping leisurely walked out of the hole into the city, and he chuckled:
"You really shouldn't look down on the Way of Ten Thousand Laws; it's truly powerful."
Call out!
Before long, a streak of light shot into the sky, heading towards the Falling Moon Ruins; it was Jiang Ping, who had just finished washing up.
Lu Cun looked at the figure and raised an eyebrow, saying, "This kid won't be using his weak and short-lived past Dharma Body when he goes to the ruins, will he?"
Jian Chen glanced at it and said:
"It's the real body."
"This trip to the Falling Moon Ruins is unprecedented in Qingling for hundreds of years. It's a great opportunity and a great fortune for these younger generations. If he wants to seize resources and enter the Heavenly Heart Cave, he'd better go there in person."
"His current strength lies in the Sword of Ten Thousand Laws. If he were to go in his Past Body again, he would be no match for it. When it comes to great opportunities, everyone is like wolves and tigers, and they would fight to the death."
Above the ruins.
Jiang Ping hurried on his way.
His initial plan was to simply travel Past Body, but considering that this was the best opportunity to accumulate resources, he also wanted to fight for it seriously.
He has only just stepped into the Nine Heavens. Facing those Upper True Disciples and exceptional Exceptional Talents, he still has shortcomings. If he can take advantage of this opportunity to enter the Heavenly Heart Cave, his strength will surely increase dramatically.
Therefore, he did not want to miss this grand event.
Jiang Ping touched the beautiful jade at his waist, and his divine sense invaded it, instantly sensing a colossal creature at the end of the Mountains and Rivers.
The deepest part of the ruins.
Before a massive waterfall formed from the condensation of laws and Order, the old man in black and white robes suddenly paused.
Is there a problem here?
His companion was startled when he saw the change in his expression.
The old man waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's just that one of my Rules Jade suddenly fluctuated a bit."
"Hmm, it's nothing, just a little guy triggered something."
"The matter at hand is of utmost importance. Get rid of all this nonsense to avoid being distracted later."
"Being easily startled can also frighten your companions."
That makes sense.
The old man nodded.
Outside the ruins, Jiang Ping confirmed that the Jade pendant given to him by Ji Wushuang was fine. Then, he used his divine sense to enter the Jade pendant to ensure that he could use it immediately if a crisis occurred.
He pondered for a moment, then his body trembled, and instantly Sword Light soared into the sky, creating ripples like waves around him.
A figure identical to his emerged from the ripples; it was his Past Body.
The Past Body glanced around, and after understanding the original's thoughts, nodded. "As expected of me, cautious enough."
The Venerable One smiled and said, "Please."
The Falling Moon Ruins are too dangerous. Since he is going there in person, he must be careful and needs someone to scout ahead.
And this task is best suited for someone from the Past Body.
"Keep up."
He casually remarked something in the Past Body, and then swiftly traversed the first four thousand miles with practiced ease.
The two, one after the other, carefully crossed the small river that blocked their path. Once on the other side, Past Body and said:
"Should we follow the route I took before, or go in a different direction?"
"Keep it as it is."
Jiang Ping spoke.
The two Dao Seed have been inside for nearly an hour. Whether they change routes or not, it's all the same. The resources on the outer perimeter have definitely been exhausted long ago.
Afterwards, the two set off again, venturing deeper into the ruins.
After traveling two hundred li, they encountered a group of people.
Unlike the previous territory, this place had been pioneered by predecessors.
The area beyond four thousand miles is undeveloped and fraught with unknown dangers. With hundreds of retainers from both families involved, the number of people has increased significantly, thus increasing the probability of an accident.
The group of people rested under an Ancient Tree, and they all looked rather unwell.
They traveled two hundred miles with great difficulty, nearly annihilating themselves along the way by accidentally touching Dao Mark.
But what was the result? Almost nothing. Forget about legendary plants, they didn't even find a single rare herb.
"Um?"
At this moment, the white-clad man at the head of the group subtly changed his expression and said in a deep voice:
Someone's approaching!
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two identical men in blue robes leisurely walking along the path he had come from.
"Jiang Pingping who practices the Sword of Ten Thousand Laws?"
Jiang Ping was quite famous in both Dao system, and he was recognized as soon as he appeared.
"This kid is cunning. He followed the route we took, just to use us as Treading the path so he can Anran go deeper."
Some people immediately felt displeased.
They explored two hundred miles but found no resources and nearly suffered total annihilation. Now that they saw others passing through their path, they naturally felt resentful.
Don't talk nonsense!
The other person quickly interrupted, saying, "That person was just undergoing Crossing the Tribulation and breaking through the nine gates; it's just luck that he's traveling with us."
"But no matter what, he's on the same path as me now. What if a legendary resource appears next?"
A woman frowned slightly.
Although the ruins were rich in resources, they were too dangerous, so they dared not wander around aimlessly. Instead, they chose one path and followed it to the end to avoid getting lost.
Now that outsiders are embarking on the same path, competition has arisen. They haven't yet reaped any rewards, so why would they be willing to share future resources with those outside the group?
The leader in white frowned; he didn't want Jiang Pingping to go down this path either.
"What's there to discuss? Just kick them out, and that's it."
The Sturdy Man in white in strength within the group, stood up, staring at Jiang Ping with a sinister grin:
"Either get out, or die!"
