Incredible Sect Simulator-Chapter 426 - 396: Vermilion Bird Mirror

Southern Wilderness, this is the largest primitive forest within Lingxi State, not only does it contain a Golden Core Demon King, but there are countless types of demon beasts; it is forbidden land for the Human Race, paradise for demon beasts.

This demon beast escaped from the Southern Wilderness Beast Tide; could it be that the Southern Wilderness has already erupted in a demon beast tide?

The outbreak of beast tides in the Southern Wilderness region is not a rare occurrence.

Almost every hundred years, a massive beast tide erupts around the Southern Wilderness, forcing multiple forces to join hands to resist, defending the border of the Chu Kingdom, and preventing demon beasts from invading the kingdom and slaughtering ordinary towns.

"If a beast tide truly erupts in the Southern Wilderness soon, this is no small matter."

Lu Ping’s brows furrowed slightly.

The Southern Wilderness is far from Cyan Mountain Sect, lying outside the Chu Kingdom; Cyan Mountain Sect has yet to inquire about matters beyond the Chu Kingdom.

Lu Yuanshan and the others, perhaps they are still unaware of this matter.

"The specific situation in the Southern Wilderness, let’s pay more attention to it later."

In the Southern Wilderness, not only is there Elder Jiang of Nine Cold Mountain overseeing things and establishing the Independent Cultivator Alliance, but the Dubhe Institute has also been established around the Southern Wilderness, guarding this piece of forbidden land for the Human Race.

The chaos of the Southern Wilderness demon beasts is not something Cyan Mountain Sect can pacify.

However, this does serve as a message to Lu Ping, that the Southern Wilderness is not peaceful and it is bound to stir up storms soon.

Cyan Mountain Sect also needs to respond and prepare for defense.

After pondering for a while, Lu Ping then checked the rewards for this hidden task.

No need to mention the 2000 Reputation Points, it’s good.

The other item is the [Three-star Physical Block].

[Physical Block: Three-star]

[Effect: Specify one member of the sect to use, after which the member can block one attack from creatures below the Golden Core Stage]

[Reputation: 2000]

...

This is equivalent to a life-saving talisman, as long as it’s not an attack from a creature at the Golden Core Stage, it can block any single physical attack below the Golden Core Stage.

Reputation Points are required to exchange for this item; the price is not cheap.

Currently, as a reward for the task, it’s equivalent to the value of 4000 Reputation Points.

Moreover, this [Three-star Physical Block] had not appeared in past system refreshes.

"This hidden task must be completed properly."

After reflecting for a while and remembering this hidden task, Lu Ping spent 5 Reputation Points to exchange for [Instant Transmission] and transmitted back to Cyan Lotus Mountain.

His target this time was Lu Changfeng.

When transmitted to Lu Changfeng’s side, he saw Lu Zhiwei also there, holding an ancient-style mirror in her hand.

After the mirror was handed to Lu Changfeng, Lu Changfeng looked into the mirror repeatedly, unable to suppress his admiration.

Seeing this scene, Lu Ping became interested and watched with great interest.

Second son, is he being vain?

A grown man, looking into the mirror repeatedly and showing an apparent silly grin, it was hard for Lu Ping not to indulge in wicked imaginations.

After observing for a while, Lu Ping realized he was overthinking.

Lu Changfeng’s admiration was obviously not about his own handsome appearance, but about the quality and power of the mirror.

"A Tier Three Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact; although I have the Blazing Heaven Sword and Celestial Ruins Godslaying Saber, two artifacts that I maneuver with ease, compared to this, I feel its contained power is even stronger."

Lu Changfeng fiddled with the Vermilion Bird Mirror in his hand and couldn’t help but ask: "Is there truly a Vermilion Bird Dharma Form contained within?"

"Yes, although the Vermilion Bird Dharma Form is not a true Divine Vermilion Bird, this Vermilion Bird Stone is born alongside the Divine Vermilion Bird, influenced over the years by Vermilion Bird Divine Power, and contains a trace of Vermilion Bird Divine Power."

"Refining the Vermilion Bird Mirror cannot be done without this Vermilion Bird Stone; that is the reason."

Lu Zhiwei gave a simple explanation; the more complex refining methods weren’t mentioned, as Lu Changfeng wouldn’t understand them anyway.

"This Vermilion Bird Mirror, it has a subtle resemblance to the Nine Fire Flame Dragon Bead I used before; that artifact contained a faint trace of Flame Dragon Fire, but unfortunately, the flame intensity was too low, and the tier of the artifact was only Tier Two."

"Second brother, you could understand it this way. If you like the Nine Fire Flame Dragon Bead, I can try enhancing it for you in the future."

The Nine Fire Flame Dragon Bead was an early artifact refined by Lu Zhiwei, made in union with Lu Changfeng’s Cyan Blade Sword, Thunderfire Peak, and the body of the Fire Source Stone Mother.

"Haha, then I’ll thank you first, little sister."

Lu Changfeng laughed heartily.

Lu Zhiwei smiled faintly, "No need to be so polite, second brother."

On the side, seeing Lu Zhiwei emerge from secluded cultivation, Lu Ping activated the Communication.

"Zhiwei, when did you come out from seclusion?"

Lu Changfeng and Lu Zhiwei were both in the communication channel and heard Lu Ping’s voice; Lu Zhiwei promptly responded.

"Father, I just came out today at noon."

"Alright, there’s something I need you to handle."

Lu Ping told them about the hidden task at Lianyushan and gave an order.

"In the northwest region of Lushan County, near Lianyushan, there is a mid-stage Foundation Establishment demon beast lurking. You two siblings go down the mountain and clear that demon beast."

Upon hearing the name Lianyushan, Lu Changfeng recalled and said: "Dad, I know this place. What specific strength does that demon beast have?"

"Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment."

"If it’s at the Fifth Layer Foundation Establishment, there’s no need for little sister to come down the mountain; I can go alone."

"Beasts of this level pose no threat to me."

Lu Changfeng’s strength had already reached the Fifth Layer Foundation Establishment; now, having acquired the Vermilion Bird Mirror, he intended to go down the mountain for experience and test the power of this new artifact.

"Indeed, a Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment demon beast, given second brother’s ability, you have a good chance to handle it effectively."

At this point, Lu Zhiwei also spoke, feeling assured about Lu Changfeng’s solo venture.

After all, she was well-aware of the Vermilion Bird Mirror’s might, having refined it herself.

"Alright, you may go then."

Lu Ping nodded in response, saying no more, since he would accompany them to Lianyushan.

Lu Changfeng still had a Tier Four Talisman, making it unlikely he’d falter against a Fifth-Layer Foundation Establishment demon beast.

After bidding farewell to Lu Ping and Lu Changfeng, Lu Zhiwei went alone to the Sect Hall to find Lu Yuanshan, to submit the other artifacts she refined during her secluded cultivation period.

During this secluded artifact refining, besides the Vermilion Bird Mirror, Lu Zhiwei also refined fifteen Tier Two Magical Artifacts, ranging from Tier Two Lower Grade to Tier Two High-Grade.

Among them, there were two Tier Two Flying Swords, considered top-tier among Tier Two artifacts, and these artifacts can be redeemed by sect disciples.

"Fifteen new Tier Two artifacts, a pretty good result from this secluded cultivation."

"Thank you, little sister, for your hard work."

Acquiring fifteen new Tier Two Magical Artifacts, Lu Yuanshan laughed heartily, as the sect’s inventory of artifacts continued to grow, with their tiers progressively improving.
