In the Immortal Dao territory of the Devil Clan.
Laughter sounded from the majestic palace. The palace guards and some Devil Clan’s experts who were cultivating were surprised. They wondered what was going on today. The Venerable Sovereign was actually so happy. They had not seen the Venerable Sovereign smile for hundreds of thousands of years.
“Disciple, you’re not bad. I didn’t expect you to not only comprehend the Beast Blood Concept in one go, but also take a step further and comprehend the profundity of the scale armor level. This profundity contains the truth of the world and is the most difficult thing. Now that you can cross it, you’re not far from comprehending the scale armor. Haha, that Spirit Race’s Ling Hao is only two to three hundred years ahead of you. I believe you’ll catch up sooner or later!”
The Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign was in a good mood.
Bai Xin said respectfully, “If not for Master painstakingly extracting the source of the strange beast and improving my strange beast bloodline, coupled with the beast blood spirit liquid exchanged in the palace, it would be very difficult for me to improve so much!”
The Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign smiled and said, “There’s no need to be humble. Resources are originally used to assist cultivation. For you to reach this level, it can be seen that you didn’t let me down. There’s still more than a hundred years before the next Beast Spirit Ranking opens. This time, you must rush into the top five!”
Bai Xin bowed and said, “I won’t disappoint you, Master!”
His words were filled with confidence. After all, there were only three prodigies from various races who had reached the scale armor level. Although he had yet to reach the scale armor level, he still had more than a hundred years. In the acceleration of time, he would have tens of thousands of years to comprehend. He would definitely be able to enter the scale armor level. At that time, he would be fourth.
Not long after, the news of the strongest prodigy of the Devil Clan breaking through to the beast blood level spread among the myriad clans at the speed of a hurricane. It was basically very difficult to hide such a thing. Moreover, the Devil Clan did not deliberately hide it. Instead, they publicized it wantonly to give pressure to the prodigies of the other clans.
After the Spirit Race’s Venerable Sovereign found out, he said indifferently, “Ling Hao, don’t take it to heart. Your goal is only that person from the Realm Race. As long as you surpass him, you can become the first on the Beast Spirit Ranking and suppress all the races in the future.”
“Yes, Venerable Sovereign.” Ling Hao’s eyes were filled with fighting spirit. Suppressing all the races was indeed his goal. Under his lead, the entire Spirit Race would definitely surpass the human race back then.
After the Flame Race’s Venerable Sovereign received the news, he frowned. Although the Devil Clan, the Spirit Clan, and the Flame Clan had always joined forces to deal with the human race, they also fought fiercely with each other, especially when it came to prodigies. They often fought in the Strange Beast Gate. Be it natural treasures or beast spirit treasures, the higher-ups encouraged them to fight. But now, the strongest prodigies of the Spirit Clan and the Devil Clan had already exceeded the level of beast blood, while the prodigies of the Flame Clan were still lingering at the level of beast blood’s whip tails.
This made him very unhappy.
“Damn it, the comprehension level of Bai Xin of the Devil Clan was originally about the same as my clan’s Yan Chan. This time, he actually improved so much. It’s easier said than done to increase the level of the beast blood. Even if he comprehended for tens of thousands of years, he might not make any progress. That old fellow of the Devil Clan must have extracted the origin of the strange beast. Hmph, he’s really unscrupulous!”
The Flame Race’s Venerable Sovereign quickly deduced the reason, but extracting the source of the strange beast would damage the bloodline of the strange beast. This was a method of drinking poison to quench their thirst. The Flame Race would not do this.
Similarly, the Demon Venerable Sovereign was also unhappy. Everyone had clearly extracted the source of the strange beast, so why did the prodigies of the Devil Clan improve so much, while the prodigies of the Demon Clan were like snails?
“What a piece of trash. If I had known that your talent and comprehension in the aspect of strange beasts were so poor, I wouldn’t have taken you in as a disciple back then. Hurry up and comprehend it!”
The demon prodigy trembled and hurriedly disappeared. Compared to other races, the cultivation system of the Demon Race was very cruel. It was basically the model of raising Gu. Most of the demonic sects of the human race were like this.
Gray Stone City.
It was spring in the City Lord Residence, which was enveloped by a high-grade immortal formation. Spring filled the residence, and emerald green plants covered both sides of the lake. The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
In the pavilion by the lake, the wife, concubines, and Dao companions were laughing and accompanying their children.
A hundred years ago, Yu Yan, Bai Yuying, Pei Huoyu, Qiu Ying, Mu Jin, and the other women had all broken through to the Divine Transformation Realm with the Taiyi Void Immortal Talisman. Among them, Pei Huoyu and Qiu Ying, and Yin Honglian had even reached the mid-stage of the Divine Transformation Realm. As expected, after breaking through to the Divine Transformation Realm, they finally gave birth to Shen Ping’s bloodline.
Therefore, the City Lord Manor was very lively now. It was like the prosperity of a cultivation clan.
Shen Ping slowly opened his eyes in the quiet room. The Taiyi Void Immortal Talisman around him burned completely and turned into nothingness. A hundred years was equivalent to spending a thousand years. He had already completely digested the complete beast skin and the scale patterns on the beast bone. The remaining time was spent absorbing the strange stones, consuming Beast Spirit Pills, and studying puppets, the Dao of Talismans, formations, and other skills.
He felt the rich and vast magical power of the strange beast in his body. He could not help but smile.
In a thousand years, he finally broke through to the Mahayana Realm. Not only did his magic powers become more dense and huge, but his mental strength had also increased greatly. But he was only at the dharma level. Only when he underwent the tribulation could his spiritual sea truly transform.
In fact, most of the Beast Spirit geniuses of the various races would not advance as quickly as him. Even if they had enough strange stones and Beast Spirit Pills, they would suppress their realm and try their best to comprehend the strange beast concept and might. After all, their cultivation realm could increase at any time. As long as their lifespan was not exhausted, there was no need to be anxious.
However, Shen Ping was different. On the one hand, he had made rapid progress in the Beast Scripture. On the other hand, he was facing the pressure of the foreign races. Therefore, the higher his cultivation realm, the more energy he had to deal with many troubles.
He opened the virtual interface and glanced around. There were two more purple frames. Except for Luo Qing, Bai Yuying, who had followed him the earliest, and Mu Jin had both transformed from a golden frame to a purple frame. Clearly, after having a bloodline, the uneasiness in their hearts had completely disappeared.
As for the rest, there were not many changes.
Shen Ping was not disappointed. After all, not everyone valued bloodlines.
“The strange beast talent seems to have reached a certain limit. It hasn’t broken through for so long!”
He looked at the Strange Beast Talent column. Enhancement, teleportation, and the Pupil of Sea Beast had been improving, but they had not evolved further. Only the Eye of Sea Beast had evolved into the Pupil of Sea Beast. He knew that although his talent had not evolved, the effect was much stronger than before.
For example, after he activated the enhancement talent, he could directly advance from the Mahayana Realm to the middle stage of the Tribulation Transcendence. Not only had he crossed a major realm, but he had also advanced a small realm. If he used the strange beast secret technique again, it would be equivalent to the late stage of the Tribulation Transcendence!
It could be said that if he were to erupt with all his might, it was enough to fight an Itinerant Immortal.
He put away the virtual interface. Shen Ping took out the top-notch beast spirit treasure, the Primordial Chaos Spear, that he had exchanged from the palace. Its entire body was silver with a trace of blood patterns. There were thin concave patterns at the tip of the spear, and it could vaguely make the blood in his body tremble.
“Among the five forms, the first form requires me to comprehend the entire beast bone. The prodigies of the Devil Clan and the Spirit Clan should be able to unleash a portion of the power of a top-notch beast spirit treasure, but I haven’t even been able to use the first form. There’s still a long way to go!”
If not for the enhancement brought about by his wife’s black crown, it would have been impossible for him to use the Primordial Spear without tens of thousands of years. But now, he had comprehended the horn level of the beast bone in just a few hundred years. If the palace artifact spirit knew of this speed, it would probably be shocked.
He stood up and walked out of the quiet room. He first sent a message to his master, Lian Xuejin. Before he went into seclusion, he asked his master to help contact the upper echelons of the Immortal Dao and collect information about the geniuses of the first level of the Heavenly Palace of the various races.
On the way to the pavilion by the lake, Lian Xuejin replied, “Disciple, you’re out of seclusion?”
“Yes. The information you asked me to gather has already come to a conclusion. Among the top 20 geniuses of the various races on the first level of the Heavenly Palace, the lowest level is the beast bone’s whip tail. It’s mainly the concept. It’s basically more than 40%.
“There’s still more than a hundred years before the next Beast Spirit Ranking. For you, wanting to squeeze into the top twenty will probably be quite difficult..”
