Chapter 95: The Collapse of the World and the Whereabouts of the Heaven Sword
Huang Yaoshi was dumbfounded. What on earth was the River of Time?
After Li Ping's explanation, Huang Yaoshi remained silent for a long time. Finally, he said, "Like Rong'er, I also descended from the sky riding on golden light."
"I fell into a forest where the people lived like savages, and I was desperate, thinking I had fallen into a desolate wilderness."
"Later I met the old rascal, and the two of us finally made it out of the forest."
"After making some inquiries, we learned that we had been stranded in Luzon..."
During the Song Dynasty, maritime trade was already very developed. Even though the Song Dynasty was attacked and weakened by several neighboring countries, it still had a lot of money to pay indemnities because maritime trade was so profitable!
Therefore, Huang Yaoshi knew about Luzon, and since he lived on the island, he was very knowledgeable about navigation.
So the two found the local indigenous king, showed off their skills, and were revered as gods by the king.
With the help of the king, a large ship was built, and Huang Yaoshi, having mastered the art of star-gazing, finally began his return to the Central Plains.
On the day they left Luzon, something terrifying suddenly happened.
Half the ocean, and the whole of Luzon... gone!
Li Ping's eyes widened: "What do you mean by 'gone'?"
Huang Yaoshi frowned, seemingly pondering how to describe it: "It's like a person turning into a shadow, and the shadow getting fainter and fainter until it disappears..."
"It's like when water boils and then evaporates!"
This statement is truly terrifying.
Li Ping's heart pounded. He took a deep breath and asked, "Then, is there anything else there?"
Huang Yaoshi shook his head and said, "The Old Urchin and I wanted to go and see for ourselves, to find out what exactly happened..."
"But our ship simply cannot get close."
"There was only emptiness there; there was nothing to see, at least we couldn't see anything."
"To be honest, this was the first time in my life I felt afraid."
"Later, as we sailed away, I discovered that the void was expanding..."
"At that rate, it could expand to the Central Plains in a few years, or even a few months..."
Li Ping and Huang Rong felt their blood run cold upon hearing these words.
After a long silence, Li Ping said, "It seems this might be the scene of the river of time collapsing..."
Huang Yaoshi said, "If what you say is true, then that river is the River of Time, and the River of Time shattered and ended up here..."
"Shouldn't they all have started collapsing at the same point in time?"
"Why start from that side?"
Huang Yaoshi was indeed very clever. He understood this concept he had never encountered before in just a few moments and was even able to raise questions about it.
Li Ping shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but I guess it might be related to immortals."
"It's also possible that the immortals brought us here and then intervened to protect this world."
Huang Rong and her father also believed it, because only by believing it could they feel a little better and avoid a complete breakdown.
Huang Rong said, "Judging from this, it will soon spread to our area, we..."
Li Ping nodded and said, "That's why we must practice hard! Strive to break through the void as soon as possible. After breaking through the void, we can transcend the world and survive."
Huang Rong was somewhat pessimistic: "Not to mention we have no idea how to break through the void, even if we did, could we really survive?"
Li Ping hugged her: "It's definitely possible..."
Definitely a load of rubbish!
But this was the only way he could comfort Huang Rong, and himself.
Faced with such a terrifying natural disaster, Li Ping could see no force he could fight against; breaking through the void was his only hope.
Suddenly, Huang Rong sniffed: "Why do you smell so good? This scent is a bit like... Palace Mistress Yaoyue?"
Li Ping coughed lightly: "I always run into Yaoyue when I'm sparring. I'm going to practice now, so I won't disturb you two father and daughter catching up."
Li Ping didn't mind telling Huang Rong, because Huang Rong had also developed feelings for Yaoyue these days...
We're all sisters, so why can't we become one family?!
We're all so happy together!
But what if Huang Yaoshi loses his temper here?
Should we really beat him up?
Li Ping then prepared to cultivate, attempting to master the seventh level of the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth...
This should be the fastest way to improve one's strength in the near future.
Li Ping even consulted with the Yaoyue sisters and Rong'er about the seventh level of the cultivation technique!
The two sisters had an incredibly solid foundation in basic theory, and Rong'er had imaginative and whimsical ideas, both of which greatly helped Li Ping. He felt that it wouldn't be long before he could master it.
Just then, someone came looking for them; it turned out to be Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhou Zhiruo gave Li Ping a graceful curtsy: "Greetings, Hero Li."
Li Ping said, "Hello, Miss Zhou. I wonder how your master's injury is?"
Zhou Zhiruo said, "Thank you for your miraculous healing, Miss Su. I'm almost fully recovered. Master is about to leave."
Are you leaving?
That's great! We should set off firecrackers to celebrate!
If it weren't for the old nun Miejue breaking free from Yuan Suiyun's mind-control technique, Su Ying might not have been able to discover it. She was a great help. Otherwise, Li Ping would have driven her away long ago. Just looking at her was disgusting!
The others who came to support Li Ping were also leaving, since Zhang Sanfeng's words still carried considerable weight, causing many to temporarily abandon their idea of seizing the Immortal Divine Power.
More importantly, given the strength Li Ping displayed, it seemed that no one had the ability to kill him!
This is the headquarters of the Sun Moon Cult, and many people are not used to staying here.
However, to express his gratitude, Li Ping still planned to host a farewell banquet for them that evening.
Extinction is going to happen sooner, that's great!
With her around, no one else can enjoy drinking!
Li Ping smiled and said, "Then I wish you and your apprentice a safe journey."
Hurry, hurry!
Zhou Zhiruo said, "My master wants me to tell you that when we came here, we seemed to see that vixen Zhao Min."
"Master was just busy looking for Lady Huang, so he didn't have time to pay attention to her."
"That demoness captured us with poison and stole the Heaven-Slaying Sword. That Heaven-Slaying Sword is a treasure crafted by Lady Huang, and it cannot fall into the hands of that demoness."
Huh?
This is just like a perfect pillow when you're sleepy!
The Heaven Sword contains the Nine Yin Manual and a crash course version of the Nine Yin Manual. I want the crash course version!
Li Ping said, "Thank you."
Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but say, "Master Li, please don't blame my master. My master is actually a good person; she's just too stubborn."
Li Ping laughed and said, "No, you guys have done me a huge favor this time. If you ever have any trouble in the future, just come to me..."
"Talking about the future is too vague! How about this, I'll give you a cultivation technique instead!"
Li Ping now has a lot of martial arts techniques at his disposal. He just learned thirty-three unique skills from Yuan Suiyun, and he doesn't even have time to practice them!
Zhou Zhiruo was startled: "How can this be?"
Li Ping said, "Your master knew what was inside the Heaven Sword, and she still told me this. Although I don't like her, I still owe her this favor!"
"She also contributed to the victory in that previous battle!"
After saying that, he took out a set of sword techniques, but Li Ping only had one set, so Zhou Zhiruo could only copy it.
The more she copied, the more alarmed she became. This "Forty-Nine Hands of Returning Wind and Dancing Willow Sword" was truly exquisite. Such a sword technique was given away so casually by Master Li.
He truly deserves to be called the number one person in the world!
She turned to look at Li Ping, who was silently cultivating, and felt that he was so dazzling, as if he were shining...
Ah, wait a minute!
It wasn't glowing; its face turned red, it was bleeding...
Seeing Li Ping's skin shatter and blood spurting from his seven orifices, Zhou Zhiruo was terrified and immediately rushed over to support him.
Feeling the softness on his arm, Li Ping opened his eyes and laughed, "Sorry, I startled you! It's alright, don't worry about it, just keep copying the book!"
Then, he continued his cultivation!
Zhou Zhiruo's eyes widened. So this is how Master Li usually cultivates?
That's incredibly dedicated!
Even if someone is immortal, they will still feel pain!
He really works so hard!
