Chapter 430: Arrogance Leads to Ruin
Chapter 430: Arrogance Leads to Ruin
"So, you actually wouldn't create a weapon like Heavenly Sin?"
Li Ping originally wanted to create a weapon like Dan Chenzi's Heavenly Dragon Double Slash, and he felt that with Iron Gate's technology, it was possible to succeed.
As a result, Huai Kong told Li Ping that he was not particularly good at forging weapons. If it were to be made, only Tie Kuangtu could probably make the kind of weapon that Li Ping had envisioned.
But Huai Kong didn't know where Tie Kuangtu was, and he was also searching for Tie Kuangtu in order to take revenge.
Li Ping is truly lacking a weapon right now, but for him, ordinary weapons are meaningless. Only divine weapons like the Peerless Sword and the Silence of the Abyss are useful.
The Heavenly Dragon Twin Slashes were just a joke, something to have fun with. It would be great if he could forge them, but it wouldn't matter if he couldn't. What he really wanted to forge was a sword.
Although Huai Kong is not very skilled in forging, since he is here, the others from the Iron Gate must be here as well, and he may still be able to ask them to forge a divine weapon.
Soon, they entered a valley, and the guards were easily dealt with before they could react. The group marched straight in.
In the valley, a magnificent palace is under construction, and its scale is almost comparable to that of an imperial palace.
Huang Rong stared in disbelief: "What is the Great Ming Sect trying to do? Are they planning a rebellion?"
Su Ying shook her head and said, "Even if you wanted to rebel, why would you build your own palace before you even succeeded?!"
They couldn't understand this kind of brain circuitry.
Li Ping had previously inquired about the Great Ming Revered Sect with Song Que, a contemporary of Sha Fang, through the Mind Network. Song Que shook his head and said, "It doesn't seem like an altar used for sacrifices or anything like that. It's strange..."
Then, Li Ping spotted another familiar face: Zhui Ming, one of the Four Great Constables, who was mingling among the craftsmen.
Li Ping used telepathy to ask, "Brother Zhuiming, what is this...?"
Upon seeing Li Ping, Zhui Ming was overjoyed: "Hero Li, I'm investigating the Great Ming Sect."
Li Ping asked, "Did you find anything?"
Zhui Ming nodded: "They built this palace exactly according to the design of the imperial palace."
"The materials were stolen from the government, and all the craftsmen were kidnapped... I feel like they're planning a rebellion."
Li Ping unconsciously lifted his chin.
Seriously? Rebellion in this world?
Aren't natural disasters scary enough?
Aren't you afraid that after all your hard work in rebellion, and you finally succeed, the world will be gone?
Moreover, what makes Xu Kaishan think he can succeed in rebellion?
Could it be that he has awakened some incredible supernatural power?!
Li Ping could sense several powerful auras within, but they weren't particularly formidable.
Then he exhaled and raised his voice: "Li Ping pays homage to the mountain, and dares to invite Xu Kaishan, the leader of the Great Ming Respectful Sect, and the benevolent mother Shafang to come and meet me!"
The sound wasn't loud, but it carried clearly to every corner of the valley.
The entire valley fell silent instantly.
Li Ping is now a household name, even more famous than the emperor.
The craftsmen who were moving timber and building walls all stopped what they were doing, because they were all experts and knew that what they were doing was beyond the bounds of propriety.
Is the Guardian Sword here to arrest us?
The followers of the Great Ming Zun Sect also turned pale instantly, because they knew that the Great Ming Zun Sect was probably not a legitimate sect.
They joined the Great Ming Sect for the promise of "return to light" and "eternal bliss," never imagining they would face the wrath of the world's number one leader.
A few timid ones had already quietly retreated, trying to slip away in the chaos.
The Ice Emperor, who was sitting on the dragon throne in the main hall, and Luo Xian, who was putting on makeup to prepare for a "hero saves the beauty" scene, were both stunned.
Luo Xian looked surprised: "How could that be? We haven't provoked the Search for Gods Palace..."
"Could it be that Huai Kong and Li Ping have some connection?"

"That's impossible, it's only been a few days."
She had never seen Li Ping make a move, but the title of "Number One Person in the World" was still very intimidating.
The Ice Emperor, however, remained unperturbed. He opened his mouth to catch a glass of wine fed to him by a beautiful woman and sneered, "Number one in the world? Don't be intimidated by that title."
"I've inquired about this world before."
"Although there are many martial arts masters from other worlds here, their skills are not very high."
"Someone like Shanmu is considered a grandmaster-level expert."
Shafang smiled and said, "I am not worthy of the title 'Grandmaster' before my lord."
The Ice Emperor gazed at her voluptuous figure, his eyes gleaming with silver light: "Very well, after I go out and deal with Li Ping, I'll come back and teach you a lesson..."
He then used his movement technique to swiftly escape from the main hall.
His gaze first fell on Huang Rong and the others, his eyes gleaming with a bright silver light, before he looked at Li Ping: "You're that so-called number one person in the world?"
"You should be grateful I didn't come looking for trouble, and you actually dared to come knocking on my door..."
Before he finished speaking, he raised his hand and reached out to grab Li Ping with a claw.
In an instant, a chilling aura swept across the area, enveloping everything within a hundred feet.
Everyone felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, as if their souls had been frozen.
The cold air condensed into ice, transforming into claws that sealed off the sky and the earth, blocking all of Li Ping's attack and escape routes.
There's no way to avoid it, no way to escape it, and no way to stop it!
Is this martial arts?
Martial arts skills can reach this level?
From the abstract to the concrete, ice appears out of thin air?
This is supernatural power!
Huai Kong was a man of considerable experience, but even he was visibly shaken by this move. He knew that his opponent was an unparalleled master!
He gritted his teeth, gripped the Heavenly Sin tightly, and prepared to unleash it with all his might...
Then, he stood there dumbfounded.
In fact, the Ice Emperor did not show as much contempt for Li Ping as he did on the surface.
Therefore, he used all his strength in this attack. In his opinion, his move had at least 70-80% of Di Shitian's power, and no one except Di Shitian could stop it.
But suddenly, the Ice Emperor felt a darkness before his eyes.
When he came to his senses, he found that he had been "planted" in the ground, with only his head sticking out above the surface.
Even more terrifying, all his internal energy was sealed, rendering him unable to move.
He was horrified. What had happened?
Even Indra couldn't do something like this, right?
Yaoyue gave Li Ping a disgruntled look.
She had originally planned to test her martial arts skills when a master appeared, to see how much stronger she had become.
As a result, Li Ping still took action directly.
You're the number one person in the world now, so it's beneath you to attack everyone directly.
What's the point of bringing us out here if you're like this?
Then, Yaoyue rushed towards the palace, which was not yet fully completed. Seeing this, Li Ping did not make a move.
The others also stormed into the Great Ming Sect...
A chilling aura emanated from within the palace, and the sounds of clashing energies echoed incessantly.
Before long, Luo Xian, Sha Fang, and the others were captured, and those who had been arrested were also rescued!
This ending was extremely unexpected for Li Ping. He had thought there might be some unforeseen changes, but it was resolved so easily.
With such meager skills, you dare to rebel?!
Upon seeing Li Ping, Sha Fang suddenly knelt on the ground: "Thank you, Hero Li..."
Li Ping was stunned. What was going on?
