"Brother Wang, we meet again. No, I think I should call you senior now."
Just then, a playful voice sounded.
Wang Ping turned his head and saw Xia Yuan, still dressed in men's clothes, walking towards him with the old woman.
"I didn't expect you to come to me first."
Wang smiled calmly.
“Haha, after all, I am most familiar with the senior.”
Xia Yuan chuckled.
"Senior, you are not familiar with the Imperial City, so why not let me lead the way for you and have some fun. What do you think?"
After a pause, Xia Yuan spoke again and extended an invitation.
"OK."
Wang Ping nodded.
Next, the two of them strolled around the imperial city.
"I wonder why you came to the Imperial City this time? It shouldn't be just for sightseeing."
After a while, Xia Yuan asked this question.
"Your Great Xia is now in the last days of a dynasty. The reason why it can still maintain stability is because the ancestor has not yet passed away." Wang Ping said calmly: "And I came to the imperial city to enter the royal forbidden area. In exchange, I can refine the Huiyang Pill for Daoist Xia Wencheng and extend his life by twenty years."
"Is what the senior said true?"
Hearing Wang Ping's words, Xia Yuan was stunned at first, then his face was filled with joy.
She didn't care that Wang Ping knew about the forbidden area.
After all, this is no secret in the eyes of the top forces.
The old woman next to her
After all, the issue that worries them the most right now is that the ancestor Xia Wencheng, a powerful master who has reached the great perfection of the Lingyuan realm, is about to pass away.
Although they have tried every possible way to extend his life, it is of no use. They can only delay his aging and decline in combat power, but cannot extend his life.
This is because longevity-prolonging elixirs are so precious that only one may , and even the Great Xia royal family finds it difficult to find them.
"Of course it's true . I already have Huiyang Grass in my hand. As long as you provide other precious medicines, I can refine a Huiyang Pill for him." Wang Ping said calmly.
"!!!"
Xia Yuan and the old woman looked at each other and were overjoyed.
Huiyang Pill is a fourth-grade elixir that can prolong life.
Not only is the elixir difficult to refine, but most importantly, the Huiyang Grass is hard to find.
Now, Wang Ping said that he had Huiyang Grass, how could they not be happy.
"If the senior can really refine a Huiyang Pill for me, I believe that I will allow the senior to enter and leave the forbidden area." Xia Yuan said seriously.
What she and the Great Xia royal family lack right now is this pill.
As long as the ancestor remains strong after she takes over the throne, she can carry out drastic reforms.
Perhaps, this elixir can really help her Great Xia Empire remain stable for hundreds of years again.
Therefore, no matter what the cost, the Great Xia royal family must get this Huiyang Pill.
"Then lead the way." Wang Ping nodded and said nothing more.
In response, Xia Yuan and the old woman looked at each other and quickly took Wang Ping to the palace.
With Xia Yuan and the old woman around, it was smooth sailing into the depths of the palace.
Soon, Wang Ping met Xia Wencheng, the ancestor of Da Xia.
This is a man with white hair and beard, looking very old.
However, although he was old, some of the majesty of his youth still remained on his face.
"It's better to meet in person than to hear about it. You are really good at hiding your true self. You obviously have the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Origin Realm, but you were walking around in the world with the cultivation of the First Level of the Spiritual Origin Realm. The Sword Spirit Sect really has great luck."
When Wang Ping was looking at the old man, the old man was also looking at Wang Ping. His cloudy old eyes widened a lot, and his face was full of amazement and envy.
Only by having the same level of cultivation as others or those with a stronger level of cultivation can one see someone's true level of cultivation.
Therefore, Xia Wencheng, the ancestor of Da Xia, saw Wang Ping's true cultivation level.
Of course, this is also because Wang Ping has not practiced secret techniques such as restraining his breath.
Otherwise, Xia Wencheng wouldn't be able to see through it.
"What? Senior has reached the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Origin Realm!?"
Xia Yuan looked at Wang Ping in astonishment and disbelief.
The old woman next to him also gasped.
Wang Ping looks so young, but he has already reached the great perfection of Lingyuan Realm. It is really terrifying.
This kind of talent is rare in the world.
"I was too arrogant at the time."
Then, Xia Yuan gave another bitter smile.
At the beginning, she thought that Wang Ping's talent was not as good as hers and Bai Tianhong's.
She is confident that she can enter the Lingyuan realm when she is in her forties or fifties.
As a result, Wang Ping had already reached the Great Perfection of Lingyuan Realm at such a young age.
The Lingyuan Realm is in great perfection, which is synonymous with invincibility in Daxia.
The reason why their Great Xia is still stable today is because the ancestor has not yet passed away.
Even though his ancestor was old and close to passing away, no one dared to move.
This is the deterrent power of a powerful person who has reached the great perfection of Lingyuan Realm.
"It seems that it is necessary to practice a secret method of concealing breath. This way, it will be easier for others to see through the truth and it will be safer."
Seeing that Xia Wencheng, the ancestor of Da Xia, could see his cultivation level, Wang Ping remembered something and this thought flashed through his mind.
"I came here this time to make a deal with you." Then, Wang Ping got straight to business: "I will refine a Huiyang Pill for you in exchange for the qualification to enter the forbidden area."
“In fact, there is no need to use Huiyang Pills for the transaction. There is a way that can allow fellow Taoists to enter and exit the forbidden area freely.” Xia Wencheng, the ancestor of Daxia, shook his head and said meaningfully.
"Ancestor?" Xia Yuan became anxious when he heard Xia Wencheng say that. He didn't know what the ancestor was thinking.
The old woman next to her didn't say anything.
Being an experienced person, she naturally knew what Xia Wencheng was up to.
"Oh? What method?" Wang Ping looked at the old man with interest and saw through his thoughts.
"Well, fellow Daoist, why don't you quit the Sword Spirit Sect and marry Yuan Er? In that case, Da Xia will be my kingdom and yours as well. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
The Great Xia ancestor Xia Wencheng coughed lightly and spoke with a smile.
It is so enviable that such a young person has reached the Great Perfection of Lingyuan Realm and is also a fourth-rank alchemist and joins the Jianling Sect.
To do this, he had to find a way to dig it out.
Anyway, Wang Ping has only been a member of the Sword Spirit Sect for a short time, so how could he have any feelings for it?
“Ancestor!”
Hearing the ancestor selling her out directly, Xia Yuan's face turned red, and she clenched her teeth and stared at him.
To be honest, the ancestor's words are not without appeal.
After all, Wang Ping is so young and has such accomplishments. He can be said to be one of the few people who is worthy of her.
If we can win him over to the Daxia royal family, then Daxia will be stable.
But, even though she was sold like this, she was still dissatisfied with her ancestor.
This didn't take her thoughts into consideration at all.
"Sorry, not interested."
Wang Ping glanced at Xia Yuan and spoke lightly.
Although Xia Yuan is a good person with a noble status, stunning looks, and good talent, he no longer wants to fall into the trap.
In the life simulator, the law of death in marriage has troubled him several times.
Not to mention, he will have to leave the Black Turtle Continent sooner or later, so there is no need for him to get married.
"Oh, that's a shame."
The Great Xia Patriarch sighed, his face full of regret.
What a good person, it's a pity that he can't be brought to the Daxia royal family.
On the side, Xia Yuan felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Wang Ping's calm refusal, without any sign of being moved at all.
Is she so unattractive?
I have to say, women's minds are complicated.
"Fellow Daoist, I still say the same thing. You can choose again for the Huiyang Pill transaction." Wang Ping shook his head and spoke again.
"Okay, then please ask fellow Daoist to refine a Huiyang Pill for me. I will have people gather the other precious medicines that are needed quickly."
The Great Xia ancestor Xia Wencheng could only nod helplessly.
"When will the forbidden area be opened?" Wang Ping asked again.
"Are you in a hurry to enter the forbidden area?" Xia Wencheng was surprised, and then said solemnly: "Although there are opportunities in that place, no one has ever been able to complete the trial in the 500 years since the founding of Great Xia. Even I, an old man, almost died in it."
"Oh? Is it so dangerous? What exactly is the trial in the forbidden area?" Wang Ping frowned slightly and asked.
"The trial is not complicated. It simply tests the strength of your combat power in the same realm."
Xia Wencheng sighed.
"When I entered the forbidden area, I was besieged by five dark shadows of the same level. I almost died. Although I barely managed to delay the trial until the end, it was only a delay, not a passing of the test."
"A test of the combat capability of people in the same realm? That's easy."
Wang Ping seemed to be thinking about something.
No wonder he obtained the spiritual weapon so easily in the life simulation.
After all, his combat power among people of the same realm is definitely one of the best in the Black Turtle Continent.
Even Xia Yuan managed to pass the trial at the risk of his life, so it was normal for him to pass it easily.
"Well……"
Hearing Wang Ping being so calm, Xia Wencheng, Xia Yuan and the old woman were all speechless.
You know, if Wang Ping goes in, he will be besieged by at least five powerful Lingyuan realm masters, which is an extremely dangerous thing.
The higher the level of cultivation, the more dangerous the battle.
After all, when he was weak, he could rely on his powerful skills and martial arts to easily kill several people of the same realm, but when he reached the great perfection of Lingyuan realm, that became difficult.
However, since Wang Ping was a monstrous being who had already reached the great perfection of Lingyuan Realm at such a young age, they couldn't say much.
"You can enter the forbidden area at any time. If you want to enter now, you can. However, I hope you can refine the elixir first and prepare a letter before entering. I am not afraid that you will default on your debt, but I want to be prepared just in case."
Xia Wencheng stroked his beard and spoke very frankly, his meaning was very clear.
There is no need to worry that Wang Ping will default on his debt. A powerful man at such a young age like Wang Ping has always kept his promises and will not go back on his word.
But he was afraid that Wang Ping would die in there.
Once Wang Ping dies, there will be big trouble.
The Huiyang Pill is gone, and it will also bring the wrath of the Sword Spirit Sect.
If that happens, the Great Xia royal family will have no place to cry and can only swallow their grievances.
"Haha, of course."
Wang Ping had no intention of blaming Xia Wencheng. This was human nature.
Besides, although he really needed the spirit sword, he couldn't wait any longer.
"In that case, you can make the medicine now. In fact, my Great Xia royal family has been searching for precious medicines for many years, but we have never been able to find the Huiyang grass."
Xia Wencheng smiled and nodded, then stood up and said.
"I see." Wang Ping was a little surprised, but not surprised.
After all, Da Xia must have tried all kinds of methods for the sake of Da Xia's ancestor Xia Wencheng, and collecting herbs was naturally not left out.
"I don't know if the royal family has any extra fire-type precious medicines, or if they know where the fire-type precious medicines are."
At this time, Wang Ping seemed to remember something and asked.
In order to cultivate the red flame spiritual fire, many fire-related spiritual objects from heaven and earth are needed.
The Fire Spirit Flower is one of them, but it is impossible for just one Fire Spirit Flower to cause transformation.
If one wants to cultivate the Red Flame Spirit Fire, one needs at least one fifth-grade fire-type spiritual object, plus a large number of fourth-grade ones to have any hope of success.
The fifth grade is a rare treasure that is useful to those in the extraordinary realm, and it is not so easy to obtain.
However, if it is the fourth grade, there is still hope to find some in Xuangui Continent .
Anyway, let's collect it first. In the future, whether it is used to cultivate the red flame spirit fire or to make pills, it will be fine.
"Fourth-grade precious medicines are already precious. If they are specifically fire-type precious medicines, even the Great Xia royal family does not have them."
Xia Wencheng, the ancestor of Da Xia, smiled bitterly.
"Okay." Wang Ping shook his head, not showing any disappointment.
The fourth-grade precious medicine is indeed precious in the Black Turtle Continent, so it is normal that the Daxia royal family does not have it.
Of course, you may have obtained it before, but used it up.
All I can say is that the Black Turtle Continent is still too small and there are too few natural treasures.
Soon, Xia Wencheng and Wang Ping arrived at a pharmacy.
As for Xia Yuan and the old woman, they did not come here and left.
After all, there was no point for the two of them to stay and they couldn't interrupt what was going to be done next.
"Old woman, this is Daoist Wang Ping. He brought Huiyang grass and will make Huiyang Pills for me, so he came to you to get the medicine."
After Xia Wencheng entered the alchemy room, he spoke to one of the female cultivators who also had white hair and beard.
This female cultivator is a fourth-rank alchemist of the Great Xia royal family and the Taoist companion of Great Xia's ancestor Xia Wencheng. She is extremely famous in Great Xia.
"Wang Ping, is that the Sword Spirit Sect's fourth-rank alchemist who has recently gained fame? Do you have the Huiyang Grass?"
Taoist companion Xia Wencheng was stunned at first, then he flashed in front of Wang Ping, his face full of surprise.
"Yes." Wang Ping nodded and took out the Huiyang Grass from the storage ring.
"It is actually Huiyang Grass. This is really surprising." Taoist companion Xia Wencheng's eyes sparkled and his face was full of joy. He was about to grab the Huiyang Grass.
In response, Wang Ping frowned slightly and dodged her hand.
"What do you mean?" She asked in dissatisfaction.
"This is my Huiyang Grass. I said I would refine the Huiyang Pill, not give it to you to refine." Wang Ping said calmly: "Of course, if you want to refine it, that's fine. It's none of my business if you fail."
"I have been refining medicine for more than two hundred years, and became a fourth-rank alchemist a hundred years ago. If I fail, how can you succeed?" Taoist companion Xia Wencheng snorted coldly, very dissatisfied with Wang Ping's underestimation of her.
"Old woman, he is a powerful person who has reached the great perfection of Lingyuan realm." Seeing that the old woman wanted to say something, Xia Wencheng pulled her back with a wry smile and reminded her.
His Taoist partner is good in every way, but he is too obsessed with refining medicine and ignores worldly affairs. Even though he is over two hundred years old now, he still does not understand many principles of dealing with people and his style of doing things is a little too direct.
Just now, going directly to get the medicine was obviously impolite.
"Perfection in Lingyuan Realm?" The old woman was shocked and stared at Wang Ping with wide eyes in disbelief.
Such a young person has reached the great perfection of Lingyuan realm?
It's really amazing.
Her cultivation was only at the first level of Lingyuan Realm. She thought Wang Ping's cultivation was higher than hers, but not much higher. She did not expect it to be so terrifying.
Therefore, although she really wanted to say, what’s the use of reaching the Great Perfection of Lingyuan Realm? A high level of cultivation does not mean a high level of alchemy skills.
But in the end, she thought about what it would mean to offend Wang Ping, so she could only keep silent.
Although she doesn't understand the ways of the world, it doesn't mean she is stupid.
"Fellow Daoist, my old woman has no ill intentions, please forgive me."
Xia Wencheng said to Wang Ping.
"It's my fault." Seeing that Xia Wenchengdu had apologized, the old woman could only apologize: "It's better for you to make the medicine."
At this point, the old woman also reacted, understood the interests involved, and knew that she had made a big mistake.
Let Wang Ping's refining be more reasonable.
Even if one is a strong fourth-grade alchemist, no one can guarantee a 100% success rate in refining a pill like Huiyang Pill.
If we fail, we will be in big trouble.
Because if Wang Ping failed, it would not be the fault of their Great Xia royal family.
By then, even if Wang Ping fails to fulfill his promise, he will be considered as owing a favor to the Great Xia royal family, which may be of great use in the future.
Because of this, the old woman was really scared when she came to her senses and apologized obediently.
Wang Ping nodded and said calmly: "Since you don't dare to make medicine, then get out of the way."
The old woman was embarrassed and had to move aside. She left the pharmacy with Xia Wencheng and waited outside.
Two hours later, a refreshing scent of elixir appeared, which shocked the two of them.
Then, the door was pushed open, and Wang Ping threw the jade bottle containing the elixir to Xia Wencheng, smiling and saying, "This is your Huiyang Pill. Next, fellow Taoist, you can lead the way."
Xia Wencheng took the jade bottle, opened it and looked at it, his face full of joy.
It really is Huiyang Pill.
The old woman beside her was also shocked.
It was actually successfully refined, and the quality was very good.
Wang Ping's alchemy skills were definitely not worse than hers, and were even better than hers.
What kind of monster is this… Not only has he reached the Great Perfection of Lingyuan Realm at such a young age, but he also has such a terrifying level of alchemy skills!
For a moment, the old woman's eyes changed when she looked at Wang Ping, and became full of awe.
The previous retreat was due to Wang Ping's cultivation, but now it is out of awe from the bottom of the heart.
After Xia Wencheng collected the pills, he left with Wang Ping, smiling, and headed for the forbidden area.
The entrance to the forbidden area is located underground.
When entering the underground passage, Wang Ping sensed a dangerous aura coming from underground, which was frightening.
This made Wang Ping narrow his eyes.
Although he had known the complexity of this forbidden area many times in life simulations, experiencing it in person was very different.
"I don't know what is hidden in this forbidden area. Why does this kind of trial appear, and why does it use precious spiritual tools as prizes?"
Wang Ping murmured in his heart.
Spiritual weapons are treasures that only those in the extraordinary realm are qualified to possess.
A force that does not have a transcendent realm but possesses a spiritual weapon is either lucky enough to have obtained one, or has an ancestor who reached the transcendent realm and passed it down after his death.
The Sword Spirit Sect is the former. A thousand years ago, a powerful man of extraordinary realm appeared there.
However, no one in this world can be immortal, and even the powerful ones in the extraordinary realm have passed away.
Even the Jianling Sect, like the Chi Clan, had once faced the crisis of extinction, and many of its heritages were lost in history.
Otherwise, the Sword Spirit Sect wouldn't even have the secret method to expand the Dantian.
History can bury too many things. Many skills and secret techniques have lost their inheritance. They either disappeared completely or no one can find them.
For example, in the life simulation, those who have the luck and opportunity to find inheritance often become famous.
Like the demon cultivator Mo Fan, and those geniuses who have reached the great perfection of the Lingyuan realm, they are all like this.
While Wang Ping was thinking, he followed Xia Wencheng to the depths of the passage and saw a portal engraved with evil spirit patterns.
Wang Ping stared at the evil ghost pattern on the door. A cold breath rushed towards him, making his back inexplicably cold and his temples throbbing wildly.
For a moment, Wang Ping had a hunch that there must be something ominous in this forbidden area.
"Don't stare at this evil ghost pattern, it will affect your mind. Someone once stared at it for too long and developed a demon in his heart. In addition, to open the forbidden area and enter the trial, you need to use 50,000 low-grade spirit stones and wait for half an hour."
Seeing Wang Ping staring at the evil ghost pattern, Xia Wencheng reminded him with a serious face.
"Huh." Wang Ping came back to his senses and nodded.
Although he felt uneasy, Wang Ping recalled that nothing had gone wrong in so many simulations. His mood calmed down again and he waited quietly.
