Chapter 375: Merit and Benefits (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lu Ping pulled the two of them into a group, then, he said, “From today onwards, important news will be gathered and reported every ten nights. Once the demon race shows signs of a possible large-scale conflict, you must call me immediately no matter what time it is. If you can’t contact me, you must think of a way to stop it.”

After that, Lu Ping started chatting with the two of them again.

Then, they ate, drank, and finally left.

After everything was over, Lu Ping stood at the entrance of the restaurant and rubbed the space between his eyebrows as he watched the two of them leave.

Suddenly, Lu Ping’s body stiffened and he suddenly straightened up.

Just now, a large amount of Heaven and Earth merit surged into Lu Ping’s body.

This was because he had helped Yun Xiao successfully make the Fengming Planet cultivators ascend without any conflict.

Lu Ping stood at the entrance of the hotel and his whole body tensed up. He had a premonition that he could enter the mode of epiphany at any time, and this feeling was getting stronger and stronger.

This was the direct benefit of a large amount of Heaven and Earth merit.

He looked around, chose a hotel, and rushed in.

When he came to the front desk, the woman receiving him had a beautiful face. When she saw Lu Ping, she was pleasantly surprised.

“Sect Master Lu Ping!?”

After all, Lu Ping was a famous person.

“Get me a room. I don’t know how long I’ll be in there. No one is allowed to disturb me!” Lu Ping said in a deep voice.

The feeling of entering an epiphany became more and more intense.

The woman was stunned. In fact, this kind of request was not rare. Sometimes, immortal cultivators needed a long time to tinker with some things.

“Then, would you like to open an alchemy room, a cultivation room, or a refining room? Our prices are all different.”

For cultivators, a presidential suite definitely did not exist.

But there were still hourly rooms.

“A cultivation room!”

Lu Ping gave the answer.

Then, he took out a spirit stone and placed it directly at the front desk!

“Put this thing here first. If I go in for a long time, I’ll use this to pay the room fee first.”

Lu Ping had a feeling that this time, the time he spent in seclusion wouldn’t be too short!

“Okay!”

Then, Lu Ping took the room card and headed upstairs.

Then, as soon as he entered the room, Lu Ping fell into cultivation mode.

This time, his feeling wasn’t wrong. The time he spent comprehending was really very long.

Fortunately, before he went in, he sent a message to Huang Xiaoqi.

He told her not to worry.

This time, when Lu Ping opened his eyes again, it was already four months later.

His eyes shone brightly, and the next moment, they returned to normal.

This time, his cultivation didn’t change much.

But his entire person was different. His comprehension of his own cultivation method and his comprehension of his divine ability far exceeded his usual level.

In the past four months, Lu Ping’s continuous comprehension was even more abundant than the time he had spent cultivating for nearly twenty years.

During this period of time, his cultivation had improved too quickly.

In just a few years, he had gone from a mortal to an immortal.

This leap was not considered slow no matter where it was placed.

This also caused Lu Ping’s foundation to not be solid enough.

This was especially so when it came to cultivating his divine powers.

He did not have the time.

Lu Ping actually did not know many divine powers at the moment. He only knew two.

However, Lu Ping did not have the time to patiently improve and cultivate them.

The system did not give him any related tasks either. This also caused Lu Ping’s cultivation of divine powers to stagnate.

Furthermore, ever since he entered the Immortal stage, Lu Ping’s system interface had changed.

Host: Lu Ping

Level 28: 1520/5W

Current Position: Sect Master of the Seven Phoenixes sect

Title: Sword Dao Guide

Cultivation: Fourth Level of the Human Immortal stage

Cultivation Method: Nine Revolutions Mystic art

Physique Strength: Immortal (first level)

Divine Powers: One Finger Mountain and River (first level), Heaven and Earth Cosmic Merit (first level)

Talent: Immense Strength (Spirit Flood Dragon), Connate Sword Heart

The strength and quality of the original spirit energy had completely disappeared. It was replaced by cultivation. The grade behind the cultivation technique had also disappeared.

Only the strength of the constitution was retained.

As for the original spell, it was no longer displayed. Although Lu Ping could still use it, because the rank was too low, it was difficult for it to fully display his current strength.

As for the divine powers, there was actually a representation of proficiency behind it.

Currently, Lu Ping was still in the beginner’s path.

Now, he could display some of his power.

It could be said that Lu Ping had gained a lot from this epiphany.

This was also one of the benefits of being a subordinate of the Heavenly Court.

After obtaining merit, he could comprehend divine ability and Dao faster.

After this comprehension, Lu Ping could even feel that his cultivation speed was faster than usual.

Pushing open the door and walking out of the room, Lu Ping stretched.

This time, he really experienced what it meant to have no time for cultivation. Time passed in a flash.

This was the longest time he had spent in seclusion in his life.

As Lu Ping went downstairs, he looked at some messages on his phone.

The first two were from the demon race. They had been reporting nonstop these days.

However, both of them were on their own in the group chat, so Lu Ping didn’t reply.

The two didn’t ask too much.

In fact, it wasn’t a big deal. After the Immortal stage cultivator left, the demon race didn’t have any intention of fighting among themselves.

For most of the demon race, fighting always existed.

Even if the Immortal stage cultivators left, the balance of power between the races was not broken, and the strong races were still strong.

No one was sure that they would win.

Of course, there would be small-scale conflicts.

There would also be killing, but this was within the normal range.

It was not something Lu Ping needed to worry about.

Seeing that the situation was stable, Lu Ping was relieved. As he walked, he flipped through the news.

Soon, he saw a new trending item.

‘Seven Phoenixes sect’s master, Lu Ping, came out of a hotel. How did he escape his ascension?’

There were also surveillance videos of Lu Ping entering and leaving the hotel on this news.

It was obvious that it was sent by someone in the hotel.

He did not expect that it would be exposed so soon after he left.

This news made everyone excited.

Because up until now, all the known Immortal stage experts on Fengming Planet had disappeared.

This was a fact, but Lu Ping had survived.

There was another person who saw the news.

The Patriarch of the Azure Cloud sect, Li Qingyun.

It had to be said that after this period of time, his cultivation had improved very quickly, and he had already cultivated to the Foundation Establishment stage.

If he was willing, with the Azure Cloud sect’s foundation, he could completely break through to the Golden Core stage or even higher in four months’ time. But when he reached this stage, he stopped.

Because when he recovered to this extent, he had already reached the sect’s standards for recruiting disciples.

According to his observations, the Seven Phoenixes sect was not inclined to directly recruit experts when recruiting disciples.

Instead, they mainly recruited Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stage disciples.

Among them, Foundation Establishment stage disciples tended to be more in number, while Golden Core stage disciples were less.

Therefore, he deliberately stopped upgrading.

It was to wait for the Seven Phoenixes sect to recruit disciples again.

However, what he did not expect was that Lu Ping actually reappeared.

Looking at the figure of Lu Ping on his phone, his heart was full of conflict.

Why didn’t he ascend?

Li Qingyun was very puzzled.

When he had contacted Lu Ping previously, he was absolutely sure that this guy had already broken through to the Immortal stage.

Why didn’t he ascend?

He deliberately died and lost his cultivation base. Only by possessing the cloned body did he manage to stay.

Why was this Lu Ping swaggering around?

This was something he could never understand.

It was one thing to not understand, but more importantly, if Lu Ping had not ascended, would he still have to become a disciple of the Seven Phoenixes sect?

Would he be seen through?

Li Qingyun was somewhat uncertain.

After hesitating for a while, he finally decided.

He would become a disciple!

Since he had reached this stage, there was no way he could retreat.

Moreover, no matter what, he could be considered to be on good terms with Lu Ping. There was no deep conflict between the two sides. Even if he was really discovered, there was no need for him to kill him, right?

However, when would the Seven Phoenixes sect recruit disciples again? Should he use the back door?
