Chapter 912: Long Time (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations

“Are you ready for this?”

He knew that his disciple had many Great Dao treasures, as well as defensive items like the Heavenly Star Armor and the Nine Continents Tower. In terms of survival, this disciple of his was extremely strong. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have resisted the attacks of the foreign race Venerable Sovereigns when he first ascended.

Shen Ping said seriously, “Master, I’m ready.”

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong stopped advising him. After all, young eagles had to face the wind and rain. It was impossible for Shen Ping to grow under his protection. After all, a flower in a greenhouse would never grow up. Without experiencing killing and fighting, not to mention other experiences, just his willpower could not reach the level of an expert.

What was an expert? It was not only his cultivation realm, but also his mind and mental state. Without enough support, his Dao heart would easily collapse.

“Since you’re so calm that you want to move, other than going to the Cloudy Rock Immortal Realm this time, go to the Northern Ice Immortal Realm. That place is at the border of our human race’s territory. It’s bordered by the territories of the Devil Clan and the Flame Race. It’s in a state of war all year round. You can train yourself if you go.

“In addition, the Northern Ice Immortal Realm is a little chaotic. Although you’re my disciple and have a relationship with other Immortal Venerables, sometimes, these connections are useless.”

With that, he threw a special token to Shen Ping. “If you encounter danger, crush it. I will rush over quickly. Still, I hope you won’t use it. The strong rely on themselves to kill their way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. I hope that you won’t just be a prodigy, that one day, you will even become an expert who can shock the myriad races!”

Shen Ping said seriously, “Yes, Master.”

Ever since he stepped onto the path of immortality, he had indeed not fought with others properly. He had always cultivated, comprehended, and cultivated. Occasionally, he would fight other experts. Therefore, he could hear the high hopes in Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s tone.

When he left the palace, he encountered an immortal king wearing a rose-red glaze dress.

“Greetings, Senior Sister.”

The person in front of him was Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s disciple, Immortal King Xue Yin. Although she was a female Immortal King, her strength could not be underestimated. She could be ranked in the top three among the many disciples, but she did not take the Beast Spirit lineage. In her words, Beast Spirits were just a shortcut, and true experts did not need to take shortcuts.

“Junior Brother Shen Ping, I’ve finally seen you after so many years. I heard from Master that you’re the number one prodigy of the human race and the number one of the myriad races. I wonder if you have the chance to spar with me?”

Immortal King Xue Yin’s eyes shone with fighting spirit.

Shen Ping hurriedly said, “I’m afraid I will be disappointing you. I’m preparing to go out and sharpen myself. When I come back, I’ll spar with you if I have the chance.”

“Oh? Going out to train?” Xue Yin sensed Shen Ping’s aura and revealed a hint of surprise on her lips. “Peak of the Peerless Immortal. If I remember correctly, you’ve ascended less than 3,000 years ago, right?”

“Yes.”

“In such a short period of time, you’ve advanced from ascension to peak of peerless immortal. In terms of cultivation speed, you’re truly number one in the immortal Dao!”

True Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, Golden Immortals, Mystic Immortals, Peerless Immortals… The breakthrough of every major realm required a long time to accumulate, especially after reaching the Golden Immortal realm. Ordinary immortals needed tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years to break through to the Mystic Immortal realm.

This was even with the fastest cultivation speed. The fastest in the Immortal Dao territory had also used 20,000 years to break through from the Heavenly Immortal realm to the Mystic Immortal realm.

Shen Ping said humbly, “Senior Sister, you’re flattering me. I was just lucky to be recognized by Master and have some treasures bestowed by the Immortal Venerables. That’s why I cultivated faster.”

Immortal King Xue Yin shook her head. “There’s no need to be humble. To be able to advance to such a level in 3,000 years, you’re indeed worthy of being an outstanding figure of the Beast Spirit lineage. Alright, since you’re going out, I won’t disturb you anymore.”

Xue Yin watched Shen Ping leave with curiosity in her eyes. “What a special genius. No wonder Master thinks so highly of him. The other senior brothers and junior sisters haven’t taken him seriously and think that his behavior is too low. It’s indeed difficult to break through from peerless immortal to immortal king, but this junior brother probably won’t delay this step for long.”

…

Inside Lian Xuejin’s cave abode at the palace at the foot of the mountain, when she heard that Shen Ping was going out, she agreed. “You should have done this long ago. It has been less than 20,000 years since you left the Nine Continents Tower. Your cultivation path has always been extremely smooth. There are not many obstacles. Go out and sharpen yourself. You can also settle down and cultivate. This time, I won’t go with you so you won’t be affected.

“Furthermore, thanks to you, I’ve made rapid progress in the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth in the past two thousand years. I need some time to sort out my comprehension.”

Shen Ping could only say, “Alright, then I will congratulate Master on breaking through to the Mystic Immortal realm as soon as possible!”

Lian Xuejin’s cultivation progress over the years was not slow either. She had reached the Golden Immortal realm and had improved in the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. His overall strength was not low.

He left his master’s residence and went to meet Fairy Xuanshui again. After she left the Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land, her cultivation had also improved. It’s just not as obvious as Lian Xuejin’s. After exchanging a few pleasantries and experiencing a few more days, he left the Misty Peak.

The moment Shen Ping walked out, there was news about it. The Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, the Flame Race, and the others had all received the news that Shen Ping had left the Ethereal Holy Land.

Undercurrents surged in the Immortal Dao territory of the human race. All parties began to secretly set up some methods. No one could do anything to Shen Ping in the Holy Land with Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s protection. However, if he left, they would have a chance. After all, immortals had many methods. Sometimes, there was no need to attack.

The distance between the Ethereal Holy Land and the Cloudy Rock Immortal Domain was very far. Even Immortal Kings would need more than ten years to cross so many Immortal Domains. Therefore, every Immortal Domain had a long-distance large teleportation array.

As a Venerable Sovereign’s disciple and a peak peerless immortal, it was naturally no problem for him to take the teleportation array.

Months later, he had arrived at the Cloudy Rock Immortal Domain. Before he left, he had contacted his wife, concubine, and Dao companions through the Strange Beast Gate and let them ascend. Therefore, his wife, concubine, and Dao companions had long ascended to the Cloudy Rock Immortal Realm.

Shen Ping saw Wang Yun, Yu Yan, Luo Qing, Bai Yuying, Qiuying, Mu Jin, Yin Honglian, Yu Qingling and Ying Yue in the Immortal City.

Compared to last time, they had all undergone the transformation of the Ascension Pool, so they were all at the Heavenly Immortal Realm. If they revealed their Heaven and Earth Great Dao, they would probably be fought over by the Immortal Venerables to take them in as disciples.

After knowing that Shen Ping was going to the Immortal Dao border to sharpen himself, they wanted to follow him.

“Husband, we’re both immortals now, and our strength is not low. We also want to help you.”

“That’s right. Even if we can’t help much, we can help with some small matters. The situation in the Northern Ice Immortal Realm is complicated. You can’t rely on yourself to resolve everything.”

“Husband, just let us go with you.”

He looked into the eyes of his wife and concubines. Shen Ping thought for a moment and agreed. With his current strength, he was not afraid of even a Venerable Sovereign. He already had enough strength to protect his wife, concubine, and Dao companions. There was no need to be as timid as before.

“Hehe, thank you, husband!”

After making the decision, they first went to the immortal city to visit the City Lord and thank him for his care. Then, they took the teleportation array and passed through many immortal realms to arrive at the border of the human race’s immortal Dao territory, the Northern Ice Immortal Domain.

There was only one huge city in the entire Immortal Domain— Northern Ice Immortal City. In particular, the geographical environment was special. There was no large-scale teleportation formation here, so no matter who it was, they had to fly from the nearby immortal realms.

Looking at the large number of immortal artifacts that came and went like ships in the immortal city below on the flying immortal artifact, Shen Ping, his wife, and Dao companions were shocked.

“As expected of the largest border resource conversion immortal city of the human race. The immortals and resources in all the immortal realms in the entire territory will eventually gather in this immortal city. After so many years, the resources accumulated in this immortal city are countless.

“If an ordinary immortal obtained it, he would probably be able to quickly break through to Mystic Immortal, peerless immortal, or even immortal king with these resources!”
