The Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign was also looking in the direction of the Realm Sea Domain. As a Venerable Sovereign, he did not care much about the Myriad Spirit Ranking or the Beast Spirit Ranking. Even if he valued them, it was because the Strange Beast Gate was related to the secret of longevity. However, the Realm Sea Peak was different. He cared a lot about the things inside.

“Many prodigies of our Devil Clan have died. I hope Ling Hao can bring out some good things. It’s not in vain that our Devil Clan has spent so much effort to nurture him.”

It was the seventh year since he entered the cave world. Most of the Beast Spirit geniuses in the top 10,000 had basically finished exploring the middle area and began to step into the upper area one after another.

Shen Ping and Yin Ting were no exception. Due to the natural oddity, they had wasted some time in the central area. Otherwise, they would have arrived in the upper area a year ago. Unlike the dark and middle regions, the upper region was not big. It would only take more than a year to explore all the hidden passages marked on the map.

However, the energy aura of the insects detected by the Pupil of Sea Beast was much denser. There were even three or four gatherings of insects gathered in some secret passages.

Yin Ting said in surprise, “Isn’t there too much beast blood’s essence in the upper region?”

Shen Ping nodded. “It’s indeed a little too much. From the situation of the branch, there are probably no less than a hundred. This is still within the range I can see. In that case, this palace might allow every Beast Spirit genius to obtain the essence of the beast blood. If that’s the case, the Beast Spirit geniuses who enter the cave will have a huge gap with the Beast Spirit geniuses ranked below 10,000.”

He had a premonition about this. In fact, the other Beast Spirit geniuses were the same. They all deduced that the experience in the second palace would be very important, so they were willing to risk death to enter.

Yin Ting said, “Looks like Realm Sea Peak’s nurturing is to choose outstanding people.”

Shen Ping smiled. “Such a cultivation method is common among the myriad races. After all, resources are limited and can only be provided to a small number of people.”

The two of them did not continue this topic and entered a nearby secret passage. It was even more difficult to obtain the beast blood’s essence in the upper region. Ordinary prodigies would definitely not be able to kill so many insects, even if they were top prodigies. Therefore, the secret passage in the upper region was actually prepared for prodigies who had top-notch beast spirit treasures.

Just like that, Shen Ping obtained all the beast blood’s essence he had seen with the map and the Pupil of Sea Beast. After exploring the entire upper region, he already had 530 beast blood’s essences in his hands. According to the effect of the first beast blood’s essence, this number was enough to nurture more than ten strongest prodigies who had reached the level of scale armor. “It’s a pity that we didn’t encounter any natural oddities along the way!” He said greedily.

Yin Ting smiled and said, “Natural oddities can only be chanced upon by luck. There are only two of us, so it’s already very good that we can encounter a World Pearl.”

He knew that Yin Ting was telling the truth. There were too many passageways in the cave world. Without the Pupil of Sea Beast to detect them, the probability of relying on luck while walking was really very low.

“If we go any further, we’ll reach the end of the upper area.”

When Yin Ting heard this, she couldn’t help but ask, “How’s the situation there?”

Shen Ping opened the Pupil of Sea Beast and was almost stunned. “This… is more than ten thousand feet wide of insects!”

“Over ten thousand feet?!” Yin Ting was stunned. With such a large area, even top-notch beast spirit treasures could not kill them all.

“It’s very likely a natural oddity. Let’s go over and take a look. Be careful.”

The two of them followed the main passageway and quickly arrived at the end of the upper area. The space here was huge, like a huge cave hall. The dome of the cave was oval, and in the center, there were hundreds of beast blood’s essence floating. These beast blood’s essence surrounded what looked like a sheepskin scroll in the center.

Shen Ping stared at the sheepskin scroll. He knew that it was definitely a natural oddity, but he did not dare to move recklessly. The surrounding insect energy almost covered half of the cave hall. Once the insects woke up, it would be impossible to escape. Even if he returned to escape, it would be very difficult to escape.

“The other clans should not be able to obtain this natural oddity either.” Yin Ting suddenly said.

Shen Ping immediately understood what she meant. Clearly, if he wanted to obtain the natural oddities and beast blood’s essence in the end hall, he needed the strongest prodigies of the various races to work together to kill the insects. “Let’s go to the other passageways first. As for this place, we’ll see the situation after the prodigies of the various races gather.”

Two months later, the prodigies of the Spirit Race and the Demon Race had both arrived at the cave hall. Unlike Shen Ping, they could not clearly detect the range of the insects on the nearby cave walls, but they could tell from the number of beast blood’s essences, therefore the two teams did not dare to act rashly.

As the number of Beast Spirit prodigies gathered gradually increased, the news almost spread. The strongest prodigies of the various races rushed to the end.

“There are more than a hundred beast blood’s essences. We’ve only obtained more than twenty in the past few years. I didn’t expect there to be so many at the end of the upper area!”

“The range of insects in the fork area is nearly 10,000 feet. These hundreds… I’m afraid we might not be safe alone.”

“The power of the second form of a top-notch Beast Spirit Treasure can instantly kill insects and living beings in an area of about 2,000 feet. However, only the four from the Realm Clan, the Stone Clan, Spirit Race and the Devil Clan can comprehend the second form. The rest can only activate the power of the first form.”

“It’s possible to join forces, but the problem is how to distribute so much beast blood’s essence. Moreover, the sheepskin scroll in the middle must be an even more precious natural oddity. Who should we give it to then?”

“Of course it’s our Spirit Race. Hmph, among the myriad races, our Spirit Race is the strongest. It naturally belongs to our Spirit Race!”

When the prodigies of the various races saw this situation, they knew that they had to gather all ten top-notch beast spiritual treasures to safely take them down. But before anyone could propose an alliance, the various races started arguing about the distribution of the beast blood’s essence and the natural oddity.

Even the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, and the Demon Race could not reach an agreement. After all, everyone knew that natural oddities were the most precious, but there was only one sheepskin scroll.

The Spirit Race wanted it, and so did the Flame Race. Not to mention the powerful special race, the Realm Clan, and the Stone Clan. They did not come to a conclusion after a full half a month of stalemate. However, the strongest prodigies of the various races reached an agreement. They would distribute ten beast blood’s essences to each race with a top-notch beast spirit treasure.

“The Spirit Race, the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, the Winged Race, the Demon Race, the Realm Clan, the Stone Clan, the Nine Frost Ice Wings Clan, the Dragon Clan. There are a total of nine top-notch beast spirit treasures. We’re still short of one. Which clan has exchanged for it? Please stand out?”

However, no one responded. A prodigy said, “The last item might be in the hands of the human race. The reason why the human race’s Beast Spirit genius was able to enter the top 50 must be because of a top-notch beast spirit treasure.”

The strongest prodigy of the Spirit Race, Ling Hao, looked at the Winged Race. “You have always been on good terms with the human race. Can you send a message to that fellow Daoist?”

The strongest prodigy of the Winged Race frowned. Just as he was about to say no, a prodigy behind him came forward and whispered, “Yin Ting of the Winged Race stayed with him.”

Not long after, Yin Ting received a message from the Wingeds. “Fellow Daoist Shen, the strongest prodigies of the various races have gathered.”

Shen Ping shook his head and said, “Looks like I can’t touch other natural oddities. Forget it, let’s go.”

The two of them first returned to the main passageway, then came to the end of the main passageway.

In the Cave Hall, the gazes of the densely packed Beast Spirit geniuses quickly gathered on Shen Ping.

“Hmph, a human is so arrogant to let our races wait for him together!”

“There’s only one Beast Spirit genius in the human race. I don’t think we need to give him the essence of the Beast Blood.”

“He’s quite bold.”

All kinds of voices sounded one after another. The prodigies of the other races were both disdainful and jealous of Shen Ping. After all, he had only entered the Strange Beast Gate for a short period of time. Not only could he rush into the top 50 of the Beast Spirit Ranking, but he had also obtained a top-notch Beast Spirit Treasure..
