In the end, he only exchanged for 30 bottles of Beast Blood Heavenly Spirit Liquid, 15 bottles of Beast Spirit Pills, 10 Beast Pattern Golden Fruits, and a top-notch Beast Spirit Treasure. He no longer had enough strange stones to exchange for treasures.
The number of Beast Spirit geniuses in the human race this time could be said to have soared compared to the first time, there were 60 to 70 more. Moreover, most of them were Immortal Kings and Immortal Venerables, but they relied on the number of prodigies to dig out the strange stones, so they did not have the advantage at all.
Therefore, until the end, these Immortal Kings and Immortal Venerables did not obtain much. At most, they distributed a few Beast Pattern Golden Fruits and Beast Spirit Pills.
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong glanced at the gradually disappearing Exchange Palace and frowned slightly. In the end, the human race had started too late. They actually did not even obtain a supreme treasure this time.
“Damn the Devil Clan and the Spirit Race. If they hadn’t interfered with Shen Ping, one of the three supreme treasures would definitely be ours!”
“It can’t be helped. The rules of this palace world are too beneficial to the Devil Clan and the Spirit Race. Previously, Shen Ping could still catch them off guard, but now that they know Shen Ping’s methods, they will naturally be on guard.”
“According to this situation, the next time the palace appears, it might be the essence of beast blood. The next time after that might be a Great Dao secret technique!”
“Great Dao secret techniques are incomparably precious. Even a place like Realm Sea Peak probably doesn’t have many!”
“Who knows? To us, Great Dao secret techniques are precious, but not necessarily in Realm Sea Peak. Don’t forget the Dao Platform. It has 33 levels. Since it has been built, there might really be experts who have reached the end!”
As soon as he said this,
Even Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s pupils constricted. He was still at the tenth level and was extremely far from the 33rd level. In his realm, every small step required countless time.
Soon, the fourth palace disappeared.
In the narrow wooden house at the core of the Nine Continents Tower, Shen Ping saw Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s projection again. “Greetings, Master!” He bowed.
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s projection casually waved his hand. “These are a hundred Chaos Origin Stones. Take them. Don’t make this matter public. Although the Chaos Origin Stones are precious materials, they’re not very useful to me.”
Shen Ping’s face immediately lit up. A hundred stones was more than what he had traded. “Thank you, Master!”
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong shook his head. “I forcefully ended my seclusion this time because of the appearance of the palace. I didn’t expect it to be like this. However, since I’m here, I can prevent the Venerable Sovereigns of the Devil Clan and the Spirit Race from bullying us humans and cutting off our exchange rights.”
Shen Ping hurriedly said, “I was useless and couldn’t exchange for treasures for the race.”
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong waved his hand. “There’s no need to blame yourself. You’ve already done very well. Moreover, you obtained a supreme treasure last time. For someone at my level, a few supreme treasures are enough. Moreover, no matter how many supreme treasures the Devil Clan and Spirit Race get, they’re not my match.”
His words were filled with confidence. Although the Dao Platform did not directly reflect one’s strength, it could show one’s mastery of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
“Disciple, how’s your comprehension of the True Book of Dao Origin?”
“I’ve already comprehended the second diagram.”
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad. You’ve improved so much in just a few hundred years. Your talent and comprehension are the best I’ve ever seen. The first page of that top-notch Great Dao secret technique is at the entry level. Moreover, it involves the essence. As long as you completely master it, you can comprehend Heaven and Earth Great Dao. Your comprehension in this aspect won’t be slow in the future.”
Then, the Venerable Sovereign explained some more difficult questions to Shen Ping before disappearing.
He returned to the City Lord Manor. Shen Ping sighed in his heart. He knew that his progress was not slow, but compared to his previous progress in comprehending the Beast Scripture, it was already very slow.
In 500 years, he had only comprehended the second diagram and had yet to completely master it. One had to know that there were six diagrams on the first page. Now, he had only comprehended the rainwater diagram.
“The further I go, the more difficult it will be to comprehend. According to the current speed, I’m afraid I’ll need more than ten thousand years of cold and summer to completely understand all the diagrams on the first page. This is even with the acceleration of the World Pearl!”
When he thought of the World Pearl, he took out a hundred Chaos Origin Stones. This was simply a timely rain for him. He directly entered the World Pearl and threw in all the Chaos Origin Stones. The deserted island expanded rapidly. It was twice as large as before, and the vegetation on the deserted island was even lusher. It felt like a paradise.
The wives, concubines, and Dao companions who were in seclusion were used to this.
After testing the flow of time, it increased from 20 times to 30 times. Although it was still inferior to the 100 times time acceleration that Yin Ting enjoyed in the Winged Race, it was obtained by consuming a lot of resources. This World Pearl did not consume much. It only needed Chaos Origin Stones.
“Thirty times the acceleration of time. A thousand years outside, thirty thousand years inside the World Pearl!”
Shen Ping looked at his wife and concubines. The lowest cultivation level among them was at the peak of the Divine Transformation realm, and the highest was Yue Lingluo, who was already at the mid-stage of the Body Integration realm.
Compared to most cultivators, Wang Yun, Yu Yan, Mu Jin, Luo Qing, Bai Yuying, and the others had no advantage in terms of talent and aptitude. The only thing was that they had sufficient resources. Even so, they had only cultivated for less than 2,000 years.
Most of the 2,ooo-year-old cultivators had reached the end of their lifespans.
In the blink of an eye, another hundred years passed.
Wang Yun, Yu Yan, and the others had all broken through to the Void Refinement Realm and their lifespans had reached more than 20,000 years. Moreover, due to their strong foundations, their strength far exceeded cultivators of the same level.
“Hehe, I can finally spend more time with my husband!” At the pavilion by the lake, Bai Yuying sat on Shen Ping’s legs and wrapped her fair arms around her neck. Her face was filled with joy. Although a Divine Transformation cultivator had a lifespan of ten thousand years, Shen Ping was a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator. Sometimes, he might go into seclusion for tens of thousands of years. They had always been worried that one day, their husband would end his seclusion and they would all look old.
Now that they had broken through to the Void Refinement Realm, there was no need to worry. After all, with such a sufficient lifespan, they would definitely be able to continue breaking through to the Body Integration or even the Mahayana Realm.
“Husband, should we arrange for An’er, Ling’er, and the others to enter the World Pearl to cultivate?” Wang Yun asked. Currently, the eldest son of the Shen family, Shen An, was already at the late-stage Divine Transformation Realm. It was just that his cultivation speed had slowed down. The rest were basically at the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation Realm. There were even some juniors who had already died.
After nearly two thousand years of reproduction, the Shen family had long become a huge cultivation family. Although they had the True Treasure Pavilion, the Shen family was very strict about the allocation of resources. Some juniors really didn’t have any talent at all. If they didn’t work hard, it was inevitable that they would die.
Shen Ping could not care about everything. He could only give each junior a fair distribution of resources. At the very least, they would have the ability to form their foundations and form their cores.
“There’s no need. The World Pearl is the Shen family’s greatest cultivation resource, unless a true genius is born in the family.” Shen Ping thought for a moment and shook his head. The eldest son of the first wife was indeed different from the descendants of other bloodlines, but Shen An’s talent was not outstanding. The Taiyi Void Immortal Talisman was enough.
Wang Yun stopped talking about this and changed the topic. “Sister Lingluo, I heard that Fellow Daoist An Zhi went to the eastern district to establish the True Treasure Pavilion a few years ago. I wonder how she is doing now?”
Yue Lingluo said as she ate her spirit fruit, “I’m not sure either. Speaking of which, ever since Fellow Daoist An Zhi went to the East District, she hasn’t sent any messages. The East District and the West District are separated by the sea of stars. It’s a long journey and we can only rely on jade slips to send messages. It’s very inconvenient.
“However, I heard that the cultivation environment in the Eastern District is even worse and more chaotic than in the Western District. If there’s no news after a while, I’ll send an elder over to take a look.”
When Shen Ping heard this, he couldn’t help but say, “Since that’s the case, why don’t we go together? Just treat it as relaxing.”
“Husband, are you ready to move?” Bai Yuying rolled her eyes. “Or are you worried about An Zhi?”
Shen Ping pinched Bai Yuying’s face. “Ying’er, if you continue to be naughty, be careful not to be beaten by me!”
The reason why he wanted to go to the Eastern District was mainly because comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was indeed very tiring. He wanted to relax. In addition, he wanted to see if there were any ten special physiques in the Eastern District..
