Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Ding dong! The mission to drive away the foreign enemy has been completed. Based on the strength and risk of the foreign enemy, the host will be rewarded with 50 Nine Revolution Golden Cores!”

When Lu Ping heard this news.

He was completely stunned.

Nine Revolution Golden Cores? Those were refined by the Grand Supreme Lord, right?

Sun Wukong had eaten quite a lot of these things back then.

He was given 50 of them at once?

Was there something wrong with this?

And it was based on the strength and risk of the external enemy?

Then how strong was the external enemy?

Lu Ping stopped.

Huang Xiaoqi asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”

“He’s gone!”

“Ha? That’s impossible. I didn’t sense it at all!” Huang Xiaoqi’s words made Lu Ping’s heart sink.

He looked at Huang Xiaoqi, he said seriously, “His cultivation might far exceed ours. He’s probably at least a quasi-saint. Just now, the system gave me 50 Nine Revolution Golden Cores! It said that it was given based on the strength and risk of the opponent.”

In fact, if Lu Ping knew that it was the Patriarch of the Heaven sect, he would definitely think that this reward was too little!

Unfortunately, he didn’t know, so there was no bargaining with the system.

Huang Xiaoqi was shocked, “Then what should we do? This person comes and goes without a trace. His cultivation is not comparable to ours. If there really is a conflict, then we will be in big trouble.”

Lu Ping thought for a moment and stretched out his hand. A jade pendant appeared in Lu Ping’s hand!

“I’ll give this to you! Take it. If you really meet an enemy, it will be more effective!”

It was the Nine Dragons pendant!

This treasure could be said to be a combination of offense and defense. However, in the current Lu Ping’s hands, its power was definitely not as powerful as it would be in Huang Xiaoqi’s hands.

Lu Ping was not stingy towards Huang Xiaoqi.

Huang Xiaoqi looked at the Nine Dragons pendant and asked curiously, “The system gave it to you? What level of treasure is it?”

“It’s the highest level of a connate numinous treasure. It’s probably only a hair’s breadth away from a connate supreme treasure!” Lu Ping said honestly.

Hearing this, Huang Xiaoqi was stunned.

Looking at Lu Ping, her eyes were filled with gratitude.

“Hubby, what will you do if you give me such a treasure?”

Hearing this, Lu Ping smiled and said, “With my cultivation base, I won’t be able to display too much power with this thing. I’ll leave it to you. When the time comes, you’ll be able to fight against a strong enemy.”

Lu Ping’s words made Huang Xiaoqi extremely happy.

For high-level cultivators, the most important thing was their own magic treasures.

Their cultivation base was the same.

Their final battle strength still depended on their magic treasures and other means.

Even saints were no exception!

Huang Xiaoqi really didn’t have any magic treasures that were powerful. To put it bluntly, all the treasures of the Phoenix clan added together were probably not as good as this jade pendant in front of her!

“Hubby, I’ll reward you properly later. Whatever you say, I’ll listen to you!”

Hearing this, Lu Ping’s eyes lit up. The two of them were currently in the exploration stage, and there were many things that Huang Xiaoqi wasn’t willing to try.

He instantly forgot about the foreign enemies.

The two of them immediately flew back to their room.

For the next month, the two of them didn’t step out of their room.

Lu Ping had started to cultivate.

Of course, he still needed to exercise his body during the interval of cultivation.

The Nine Revolution Golden Core had already been swallowed by Lu Ping. It was an effective pill for Immortal stage cultivators.

Apart from increasing one’s cultivation base, it could also strengthen one’s body.

It was considered an extremely precious treasure.

Even in the Heavenly Court, who knew how many immortals coveted it.

After a medicinal pill was swallowed, an incomparably powerful force erupted, helping Lu Ping strengthen his body and increase his cultivation base.

Most importantly, this medicinal pill basically didn’t have any side effects. Moreover, increasing one’s cultivation base didn’t need to consider what effect it would have on one’s foundation.

After all, the pills were produced by a saint, and their quality could be guaranteed.

A month later, Lu Ping had consumed eighteen of the fifty golden cores, and his cultivation base had also risen to the ninth layer of the Heaven Immortal stage!

He was only one step away from becoming a Gold Immortal.

However, at this time, Lu Ping did not dare take any more pills to forcefully increase his cultivation base.

His cultivation base had been forcibly increased, causing Lu Ping’s comprehension of the Dao to be somewhat unable to keep up.

Fortunately, after a period of accumulation, Lu Ping’s sect contribution points had already reached eight million.

In this way, he could finally ascend to the ninth level of the Scripture Pavilion.

What he didn’t know was that during this month, the Patriarch of the Heaven sect had also come to the Seven Phoenixes sect more than once.

When he discovered that Wu Xingyue had really entered the sect and changed her aptitude to start cultivating, Lu Ping also indulged in cultivation, completely without any malice.

His suspicions towards Lu Ping also vanished into thin air.

When he saw Lu Ping fly out, his cultivation had increased tremendously.

The Patriarch of the Heaven sect narrowed his eyes.

“The Dao ancestor placed this person here, and his cultivation has increased so quickly. What is the Dao ancestor thinking about?”

He narrowed his eyes. In the past month, he had thought about this question countless times.

“Could it be that the Dao ancestor wants this person to become a saint?”

In an instant, this thought suddenly flashed through the Patriarch of the Heaven sect’s mind.

The moment this thought appeared, it was as if a Pandora’s box had been opened.

“On the surface, this calamity is a battle between the Western Church and the Heavenly Courts. However, the most important thing is who among the quasi-saints will become a saint! Only a saint can allow the Dao ancestor to personally set up a trap!”
