Incredible Sect Simulator-Chapter 688 - 656 Arrival at Cold Mountain 9

"No need for formalities."

Facing the grandfather-granddaughter duo, Lu Ping merely glanced at them lightly, his expression as calm as still water, responding with a sentence.

The girl in purple before him, her cultivation was at First-Layer Foundation Establishment, seemingly having just broken through not long ago.

The white-haired elder’s cultivation, however, had reached Sixth Layer Foundation Establishment, and his aura was restrained, poised to break through to Seventh-Layer Foundation Establishment at any moment.

Judging by the situation, this white-haired elder was obviously teaching the purple-dressed girl Sword Control.

Upon hearing Lu Ping’s words, the white-haired elder wanted to say a few more words, perhaps to probe Lu Ping’s background, maybe even to make a connection if possible.

However, the next moment, he saw the scene in front of him change.

Lu Ping had already commanded the Cyan Dragon to break through the air, turning into a tiny black dot.

"Such speed!"

Seeing Lu Ping instantly fly away, the white-haired elder couldn’t help but express his amazement.

Earlier, because Lu Ping was floating in the air without releasing his cultivation aura, the white-haired elder couldn’t discern Lu Ping’s strength.

But as Lu Ping began to exert his magical power now, driving the Cyan Dragon to fly at high speed, a wave of Golden Core Stage cultivation aura emanated, showcasing Lu Ping’s cultivation without reservation.

This release made the white-haired elder clearly sense it.

"Grandfather, was that... elder very powerful just now?"

Different from the white-haired elder, the purple-dressed girl’s thoughts were still pondering why she couldn’t fly steadily with her sword.

She had no mind to pay attention to Lu Ping’s strength.

"That elder’s strength is far beyond what we can provoke. Fortunately, he is magnanimous and did not mind us. Otherwise, if he took action, we would have no chance to escape, let alone resist."

Listening to the white-haired elder’s words, the purple-dressed girl was stunned, and couldn’t help but glance in the direction Lu Ping flew away.

Her grandfather was a Sixth Layer Foundation Establishment cultivator, second only to the elder clan leader in the family.

Previously, there were loose cultivators causing trouble around the family’s residence, and other families were helpless until her grandfather stepped in to eliminate those loose cultivators, earning great fame.

Just like her grandfather, a strong figure, even he felt he wouldn’t be a match for the elder just now.

That man looked young, barely over twenty, yet he was even stronger than her grandfather.

Isn’t this elder’s aptitude beyond extraordinary!

Could he indeed be a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator?

"Such a character is not someone we, grandfather and granddaughter, can interact with."

The white-haired elder sighed slightly and urged the purple-dressed girl.

"We should head to Nine Cold Mountain soon. Don’t let Elder Jiang wait too long."

"Okay."

...

Meeting the grandfather-granddaughter duo was merely a brief interlude.

In just a short moment, Lu Ping was above Nine Cold Mountain.

Such a high-profile descent, especially in the market of Nine Cold Mountain, where loose cultivators gathered, immediately attracted a lot of attention from the loose cultivators.

"Hey, look, what’s that?"

"Is that... a dragon?"

"What a majestic dragon. Could it be the steed of some big shot?"

"Nonsense! If it’s not a steed, what is it then!"

"Being so ostentatious in Elder Jiang’s domain, who is this person, being so high-profile and not fearing offending Elder Jiang."

As Lu Ping appeared, he quickly became the focus.

Just when everyone was speculating about Lu Ping’s identity, from the east of Nine Cold Mountain Market, within a Tier Five Spirit Vein, a voice came from afar.

"Lu Daoist graces us with your presence; you truly make our humble abode flourish."

This voice was extremely clear, resounding across the heavens and earth.

Then, his tone carried a bit of excitement.

"Please come inside and have a seat."

Upon hearing this voice, many cultivators in the Nine Cold Mountain Market were immediately abuzz.

"Elder Jiang?!"

"That’s Elder Jiang’s voice!"

"Oh my, who is this person to be invited by Elder Jiang like this? Remarkable indeed!"

With Lu Ping receiving Elder Jiang’s invitation and flying toward the spirit vein, some cultivators quickly guessed Lu Ping’s identity.

"Turns out it’s Elder Lu!!"

"Elder Lu, which Elder Lu?"

"You’re talking nonsense again. Which other Elder Lu could it be? Naturally, it’s Elder Lu from Cyan Mountain Sect!"

"Cyan Mountain Sect’s Elder Lu... oh! That founder of Cyan Mountain Sect!"

"Exactly!"

In the market, there was an instant buzz, as people discussed Lu Ping’s visit at this time and the purpose behind it.

This founder of Cyan Mountain Sect was always elusive.

If Elder Jiang hadn’t shouted "Elder Lu," these people wouldn’t be able to quickly ascertain that Elder Lu referred to Lu Ping.

Riding the Cyan Dragon, Lu Ping slowly landed on the Tier Five spirit vein, seeing from afar a noble lady in purple standing on a plaza, looking out with a subtle smile.

This person was Elder Jiang.

Commanding the Cyan Dragon, landing in front of Elder Jiang, Lu Ping stepped down from the void, as if walking on invisible steps.

Step by step, he walked leisurely down, Lu Ping smiled lightly, his gaze falling on Elder Jiang.

"Today must indeed be an unusual day."

Seeing Lu Ping himself arriving at Nine Cold Mountain, Elder Jiang jested.

She had a good relationship with Lu Ping.

Earlier sensing a powerful aura approaching nonstop, Elder Jiang’s expression had turned serious, thinking someone disrespectfully dared to make a fuss here.

Her brows had initially furrowed, ready to take action, but in the next moment, she employed Spiritual Eye Divine Techniques to glance at Lu Ping, realizing it was Lu Ping arriving, and her attitude quickly changed.

The previous frown was gone, and her heart even felt somewhat joyful.

Lu Ping was indeed a rare visitor.

"I did not inform you beforehand, sorry for the intrusion."

Lu Ping smiled lightly, politely speaking again.

"Presumptuous."

Seeing Lu Ping like this, Elder Jiang shook her head slightly.

"Not at all, it’s good that you came. Why bother with such formalities?"

With these words, Elder Jiang took the lead, guiding Lu Ping to the inner hall to have a seat.

"Sit inside."

Once seated in the inner hall, after a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lu Ping opened up.

"I’m here to see if you have a Spirit Gathering Array that can enhance Tier Five Spirit Vein."

"Cyan Mountain Sect is currently limited in capacity, so I came here first to check."

"Enhance Tier Five Spirit Vein, are you aiming to assault Nascent Soul Stage?"

Upon learning of Lu Ping’s intentions, Elder Jiang guessed his purpose.

Cyan Mountain Sect’s Sect spirit vein had been noticed by Elder Jiang, knowing it was at Tier Three Top-Grade level.

She had wondered then how Lu Ping maintained his daily cultivation.

Perhaps he doesn’t cultivate within Cyan Mountain Sect.

"With Yuanshan and Zhiwei recently entering the Golden Core Stage, even though Cyan Lotus Mountain’s spirit vein allowed me to upgrade to Tier Four Lower Grade, which can temporarily satisfy Yuanshan and Zhiwei’s cultivation, it still lacks some fire for me."

Lu Ping said.

"Nascent Soul Stage is certainly something to strive for, and the spirit vein enhancement must be planned early."

Finding out that Lu Yuanshan and Lu Zhiwei have entered the Golden Core Stage did not surprise Elder Jiang, since she expected it.

What surprised her was Lu Ping’s intention to assault the Nascent Soul Stage.

The Nascent Soul Stage isn’t easy to achieve.

She herself had been stuck at this bottleneck for years and had once hoped, after Lu Ping’s secluded cultivation, that he would break through to Nascent Soul Stage.

If so, she could garner some insights from Lu Ping, gaining cultivation knowledge.

However, now seeing Lu Ping’s cultivation, it was obvious he hadn’t entered the Nascent Soul Stage.

This time, Lu Ping came for the Tier Five Spirit Gathering Array, seemingly aiming to assault the Nascent Soul Stage!
