Chapter 437: Attack (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The six Immortal Venerables of the Devil Race, Spirit Race, and Demon Race looked at each other and were silent for a moment.
Before they came, they knew that their only chance to attack was during the surprise attack. Unfortunately, they did not expect the True Treasure Immortal Platform to actually have an immortal treasure comparable to an emperor-level immortal treasure. Otherwise, even seven Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals would definitely be unable to survive when they attacked with all their might.
“Retreat!”
The moment the voice sounded, they left without hesitation. The originally frozen space immediately slowly recovered like water ripples.
The Venerable Sovereign of the human race appeared. He looked at the ruined True Treasure Immortal Platform with anger between his brows, but he quickly suppressed it. The human race was no longer the same as before. Moreover, at this critical moment, no matter how angry he was, he could not be rash.
“Venerable Sovereign, it’s the six Immortal Venerables of the Devil Race, the Spirit Race, and the Demon Race.” Immortal Venerable Qi gritted his teeth, “The core territory of our human race is enveloped by the Heaven Ascension Immortal Array. Without a spy, it’s impossible for the Immortal Venerables of the other races to sneak in silently.”
The human Venerable Sovereign shook his head. “I know, but it’s not easy to investigate the insiders. After so many years, I don’t have any clues. The most important thing now is to contact the successor of the Nine Continents Tower as soon as possible.”
Immortal Venerable Qi said helplessly, “Fortunately, Venerable Sovereign gave the Seven Treasures Lotus Lamp to the True Treasure. Otherwise, things would have been troublesome.”
“That’s right.” The human Venerable Sovereign was also a little afraid. He looked at Zhenbao and the other seven Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals and asked, “Can you still contact your successor?”
Zhenbao hurriedly said, “I’ve already transferred the inner array of the immortal platform to the lotus lamp. With the help of the lotus lamp, we can continue to contact each other. It’s just that my True Treasure Immortal Platform has suffered a calamity, and there are only the seven of us left on the entire immortal platform.”
The human Sovereign sighed. “The clan will compensate you for this matter. As for the deaths of those sect disciples…”
It could only be said that his luck was not good.
The news of the six Immortal Venerables attacking the True Treasure Immortal Platform in the human race’s territory quickly spread throughout the myriad races. Some watched the show, some gloated, and some ignored it. It was mainly because the human race had squeezed the living and cultivation space of the other races when they were prosperous. Now, they were happy to see the human race suffer.
The higher-ups of the Winged Clan gathered together.
“The key to this matter is still that Beast Spirit genius of the human race. As long as he is not eliminated, the Devil Clan, Spirit Clan, and Demon Clan will not let this matter rest.”
“That’s right, but there’s nothing we, the Winged Clan, can do.”
“In terms of the number of prodigies in the clan, our Winged Clan can’t compare to the Devil Clan, Spirit Clan, Demon Clan, Flame Clan, and so on. Therefore, the focus of the clan is to nurture prodigies. We have to let those Beast Spirit prodigies comprehend the Spell Thaumaturgy of the Strange Beast Bloodline as soon as possible and master the Strange Beast Intent.
“Oh right, isn’t there a second-grade Beast Spirit genius in the clan who maintains contact with that person from the human race? We can let her continue to deepen the connection. If we can find out where he is, it will be a great merit.”
Be it the Nine Continents Tower or the strange beasts suppressed, they were all coveted by the various races, and the Winged Clan was no exception. After all, if they could obtain two strange beasts, the number of Beast Spirit geniuses born in the clan would increase greatly. It would be easier to nurture even prodigies.
When the instructions of the higher-ups reached Yin Ting’s master, it changed. She looked at his solemn master. Yin Ting’s head was filled with question marks. “Master, y-you’re sure you want me to mix with that Beast Spirit genius of the human race?”
Her master said earnestly, “Disciple, I know that your heart is firm in pursuing the Dao, but this is a huge matter for the race. In order to destroy a trace of possibility, the Devil Clan, the Demon Clan, and the Spirit Clan did not hesitate to use six Immortal Venerables to attack the Human Clan’s True Treasure Immortal Platform. Therefore, if you can obtain the specific information of the other party, it will be a huge contribution to the race.
“At that time, I will definitely apply for the clan to do their best to nurture you into a first-grade Beast Spirit genius, or even a prodigy.”
At the mention of that, she glanced at Yin Ting, who had a peerless appearance and a figure that could be said to have a golden ratio. “You’re already in the Divine Transformation realm. It’s fine even if you lose your vital yin. Besides, didn’t you praise that human beast spirit genius for having extraordinary strength?”
“That’s two different things!” Yin Ting was a little speechless. “Master, the Winged Clan have always been cautious and loyal when choosing their other half. According to what I know, the other party already has a dao companion. This, this, I really can’t tolerate it!”
“Disciple, this is the decision of the seniors in the clan. Even I can’t disobey it!” Her master’s voice became serious, “The clan nurtured you so that you can contribute to the clan.”
Yin Ting bit her lip. “I-I understand.” She felt aggrieved in her heart, but there was nothing she could do. After all, she was only a Divine Transformation cultivator. Even if she was a Beast Spirit genius, it was impossible for her to disobey the decisions of the higher-ups of the clan. Moreover, to be honest, only those Beast Spirit prodigies were valued by the clan. They did not care much about the other Beast Spirit geniuses at all because they might have died in the underground palace that day.
Shen Ping was in seclusion and cultivating. He did not pay attention to anything outside. In the blink of an eye, half a year passed. He stepped out of the quiet room. He suppressed the anxiety in his heart and connected it to his master through the dazzling crystal.
Not long after, Lian Xuejin’s gentle voice sounded, “Disciple, I can now communicate normally with the immortal Dao seniors. The immortal Dao seniors of the human race value your safety very much. But for some reason, the immortal Dao seniors can’t protect you for the time being. When the time is ripe, they can arrange to bring you to the prosperous place of the immortal Dao to cultivate.”
Shen Ping was stunned. Then, he hurriedly asked, “Master, then, then what about my wife, concubine, and Dao companions?”
Lian Xuejin smiled. “Don’t worry, they can come out, but we still need time. It’s mainly because my cultivation level is too low. It’s not easy to temporarily obtain the authority of the Nine Continents Tower through the core array of the five continents and four seas.”
Shen Ping was already mentally prepared for this. He said, “I wonder how long it will take?”
“At least 60 years. The last time you left, it was a method left behind by my master. It’s all my fault for not cultivating well.”
Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief, and his expression became relaxed. “It’s not Master’s fault. I can afford to wait for sixty years. No matter what, it’s enough as long as I can see my wife, concubine, and Dao companions. Moreover, the current situation is not certain. I can’t even guarantee my safety. If I really let my wife, concubine, and Dao companions come out, it might not be a good thing.”
Lian Xuejin said with relief, “It’s good that you can understand. Actually, the suggestion of the Immortal Dao seniors is for me to temporarily obtain authority through the array and increase my strength. When I reach the True Immortal Realm, I can become a guardian. At that time, I can unleash a trace of the power of the Nine Continents Tower and protect you. The seniors of the human race can also be at ease and guide you to the place where the Immortal Dao is prosperous.
“With my cultivation speed, I only need a few hundred years. However, the other races won’t give us too much time. Be it me or the Immortal Dao seniors, they all believe that the Devil Clan, the Spirit Clan, and the other races will definitely find you at all costs and kill you. Therefore, you have to be careful next. I need to focus on cultivating the control technique given by the Immortal Dao seniors.”
Shen Ping nodded seriously. “I understand!”
The exchange ended. He could not help but look excited. Although he still had to wait for 60 years, he was already a Divine Transformation cultivator. His lifespan could reach 10,000 years. This wait was insignificant.
He left the room.
Shen Ping came to the spacious east courtyard of the City Lord Manor and took a walk. He walked for a full four hours before he suppressed his emotions and gradually calmed down.
“My current situation is still too unstable. Once the experts of the Devil Clan, the Spirit Clan, and the Demon Clan discover my tracks, I won’t be able to escape even if I want to!”
He fell into deep thought. Actually, he had discussed this with his master more than once. If the True Immortals of the lower realms of the various races wanted to find his traces, they would definitely go to Sword Seal City, a large cultivation city where all the races gathered. Therefore, controlling the information of Sword Seal City was the most important.
And once he was discovered, with the exaggerated speed of a True Immortal, he would not be able to escape at all. Therefore, he had to run to the Black Mist Direlands in advance. This was because the Black Mist Direlands were very chaotic and dangerous. True Immortals had to be careful when entering..
