But no matter what method was used, the boulder remained motionless.
Slowly, I gave up on opening the boulder and seeing what ideas were inside.
Chen Ping listened and remained silent!
Could a venerable monk, in his twilight years, possess such immense power?
For centuries, streams have flowed from within, each carrying a rich abundance of spiritual energy.
How is this possible?
Chen Ping suspected that there must be other things inside, capable of emanating such pure spiritual energy.
As for what it could be, Chen Ping was also clueless.
Unless there's a way to break that boulder and see what's inside.
However, with Chen Ping's current abilities, he is unable to break the giant stone.
After chatting with Ji Ruxue for a while, Chen Ping proposed to go into the cave to practice!
Although that place was considered a restricted area within the Honglian Palace, Chen Ping had suggested it, so Ji Ruxue agreed.
…………
Palace of the Sacred Beasts.
Fei Qingping was lying on his tiger-skin armchair, with two scantily clad women beside him.
At this moment, a disciple of the Sacred Beast Palace rushed in and knelt down on the ground.
"Master of the Palace, the person brought by Young Master has returned!"
That disciple of the Holy Beast Palace said.
"Did he rush back? That guy, seeing a woman, probably couldn't even walk straight..."
Fee Qingping narrowed his eyes and asked.
"Report to the Master, young master hasn't returned. Only a few who went with him came back, but they seem injured."
That disciple of the Saint Beast Palace replied.
"Are you hurt?" Fei Qingping opened his eyes and sat up abruptly. "Bring them in!"
Soon, several Wuzong warriors who were following Xiang Chong were called in.
"What's going on?"
Fei Qingping asked.
Several people hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Palace Master, Young Master was killed by someone..."
"What?" Fei Qingping jumped to his feet. "Killed by whom? Chong'er is a half-step martial marquis. Who in the entire south would dare to kill him?"

"Is that girl as skilled as snow? She couldn't possibly stand a chance against Chong'er!"
"Master, it was Chen Ping, a man named Chen Ping, who killed Young Master Xiang…"
A Martial King said.
"Chen Ping?"
Fee Qingping's brows furrowed, and he pondered deeply about this person.
But it seemed like he had never heard of such a master in the south.
At this time, an elder of the Sacred Beast Palace stepped forward and whispered a few words in Fei Qingping's ear. Fei Qingping instantly realized!
"Damn it, so it's this kid. How did he get here? He even helped the Red Lotus Palace?"
"But he ran here to provoke my Sacred Beast Palace, that's courting death!"
Fee Qingping said with a murderous look.
But Fei Qingping couldn't understand how Chen Ping had suddenly gone from Kyoto to the south.
And what connection does she have with the Red Lotus Palace, to actually be helping them?
"Master, I think we should investigate thoroughly and see if Chen Ping came here on his own."
"He actually dared to kill the young master, which proves he doesn't take our Sacred Beast Palace seriously."
"In that case, there must be someone else behind him. Let's not touch Chen Ping for now!"
The elder advised Fei Qingping.
Fei Qingping frowned. What Chen Ping had done in Kyoto was indeed impressive.
As the saying goes, a person's reputation precedes them like a tree's shadow. Since Chen Ping became famous, anyone who wanted to deal with him would have to think twice.
After a moment, Fei Qingping said: "En, go investigate. But if you can pull that Chen Ping into our Shengshou Palace, it would be even better. This kid is a talented person!"
After hearing the elder's account of Chen Ping's deeds, Fei Qingping held him in high regard, considering him a man of talent.
As for Xiang Chong being killed by Chen Ping, Fei Qingping could pretend it never happened.
He's just an adopted son, Fei Qingping has over ten adopted sons!
The elder was ordered to investigate Chen Ping, while Fei Qingping simply lay back down again...
