Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

All these years, without Shen Ping by their side, they usually listened to Yu Yan’s suggestions and would occasionally ask Wang Yun. Although Pei Huoyu was the strongest and had a close relationship with Shen Ping, she had just become Shen Ping’s Dao companion after all. Therefore, most of the time, Pei Huoyu only cultivated in seclusion and never expressed her opinion.

Wang Yun could not help but say gently, “Sister Ying’er, Sister Yu Yan is right. All these years, we have been talking to our husband every once in a while and know a little about the cultivation environment in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness. The human race is in a bad situation, and our husband is being pursued by various races. If you don’t have the corresponding cultivation strength, uou might as well stay in the five continents and four seas. Although I miss you a lot, my husband’s safety is more important.”

Seeing Qiu Ying, Luo Qing and the other women also looked at her. Bai Yuying said helplessly, “Don’t worry, I’m not as playful as before. Moreover, I’m only a step away from the Nascent Soul realm now. I believe I’ll definitely succeed in five years.”

Yu Yan couldn’t help but smile. “It’s good that you’re confident. When the time comes, we’ll both be Nascent Soul cultivators. We can more or less share some of the pressure for you.”

Luo Qing said in a rare manner, “Husband has built the True Treasure Pavilion and has no time to manage it at all. Currently, he only has Jing Huilan by his side. No matter how good their relationship is, it’s not as trustworthy as us Dao companions.”

Qiu Ying smiled and said, “I’m just afraid that Husband doesn’t want us to split our attention to manage it. Our husband has endured a lot over the years. When we go out, we’ll definitely receive lots of favors.”

Hearing this, Bai Yuying chuckled and said, “That’s most likely the case. When Husband was still at Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment, he was already full of vigor and didn’t rest every day. I still remember that when we were at Cloud Mountain Parlour, Sister Yun’er and I couldn’t even bear it. After so many years, he might become even braver. Even if the few of us join forces, we might not be able to withstand it!”

Yu Yan glanced at the girls and said half-jokingly, “Speaking of which, we sisters haven’t been together for a long time. I almost forgot some scenes.”

Pei Huoyu sighed helplessly. “What a pity. There are some things that can’t be changed with our strength. The general trend is like this. Our husband was forced to leave the five continents and four seas and didn’t dare to stay in the Nine Provinces Tower. It was even almost sealed and changed beyond recognition. Although the situation is much better now and no one is watching, we have to be careful.”

Mu Jin, Qiuying, Yin Honglian, Wang Yun, Luo Qing, and the other women nodded in agreement. If not for the fact that their husband had suffered an irresistible factor, he would not have been separated from them for so long.

“Alright, it’s useless to talk about this now. We should focus on cultivation. No matter what, the higher our cultivation and strength, the greater the help it will be to our husband. At the very least, we won’t be unable to withstand it because of our cultivation.”

“Yes, Sister Yu Yan!”

On the top floor of the Heavenly Palace of the Gate of the Strange Beast, Immortal Venerable Qi looked at the huge jade ranking in front of him that was like a cloud that hung down from the sky and could not help but sigh. “This is the main body of the Myriad Spirit Ranking, an existence that far exceeds Connate cardinal treasures. If not for it, our human race would still be strong and wouldn’t have fallen to this state.”

“Haha… So what if he sighs?”

“Immortal Venerable Qi, you humans have been strong for so many years. It’s time for you to decline and die. The appearance of the Myriad Spirit Ranking is a symbol, so you shouldn’t struggle anymore. Just let your race die!”

“That’s right. It’s indeed time for the human race to die!”

Swish, swish, swish. Soon, several Immortal Venerables of various races appeared beside Immortal Venerable Qi. They were all existences who could enter the Strange Beast Gate’s Heavenly Palace.

However, Immortal Venerable Qi’s expression was not bad at all. He continued to look at the jade rankings, “It’s rumored that the Myriad Spirit Ranking contains the secret of longevity. You’ve studied here for nearly ten thousand years. I wonder if you’ve come up with any results?”

“Stop talking nonsense with him. Hurry up and attack!”

“As long as we get rid of Immortal Venerable Qi, the human race will return to the bottom and never have the hope of rising again!”

As soon as he finished speaking, several Immortal Venerables attacked together.

On the third floor of the underground palace, Shen Ping was admiring Yin Ting’s white wings. Her white feathers were still stained with traces of spells. Clearly, she had just experienced a Dao technique battle.

A few days later, Yin Ting, who had covered her Purple-Green Soft Armor again, regained her cool after a while. She glanced at Shen Ping. “Fellow Daoist Shen, your cultivation level has indeed increased at an astonishing speed. Back on the second level of the underground palace, you were still an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, but now, you’re already a Void Refinement Realm expert.”

The growth of the magical power of the strange beast was relatively slow. Without the enhancement of the Heaven Ascension Hall, most Beast Spirit geniuses could be considered to have a relatively fast cultivation speed when they increased a small realm in hundreds of years. Yin Ting was still at the Divine Transformation Realm after such a long time.

Shen Ping smiled and said, “I obtained a rather special Beast Spirit Treasure. The effect of searching for strange stones is very high.”

Yin Ting was stunned. “A special beast spirit treasure?”

That was indeed a possibility. After all, the number of beast spirit treasures in the entire underground palace and the Heavenly Palace was very large. It was just that high-grade beast spirit treasures were relatively rare.

Shen Ping hesitated for a moment before taking out a red crystal.

Yin Ting’s eyes immediately revealed surprise, “T-this is Magma Fire Earth Flame Crystal??”

“That’s right. These are the natural treasures I found with special beast spirit treasures. You should know how rare these underground palace spiritual treasures are, right?”

The Magma Fire Earth Flame Crystal was the best supplementary material for fusing beast spirit treasures into medium-grade beast spirit treasures. Its value was comparable to more than ten thousand strange stones. It was very difficult to find it in the underground palace. Of course, it would usually be born once every five to six hundred years.

However, the various races had a huge demand for this kind of spiritual treasure. This was because there were very few high-grade beast spirit treasures in the underground palace and the first few levels of the Heavenly Palace. Therefore, middle-grade beast spirit treasures were very precious. Especially for beast spirit geniuses below the Void Refinement Realm, middle-grade beast spirit treasures were the ones that could unleash their power the most.

Shen Ping took out another one.

Yin Ting completely believed in the special beast spirit treasure that Shen Ping mentioned. She said enviously, “Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re really a person with deep luck.”

She’s not the only one who had said the same thing to him. Shen Ping naturally knew that he was not blessed. Instead, he relied on his strange beast talent and the virtual interface. “I have many low-level beast spirit treasures on me.”

Yin Ting immediately understood what Shen Ping meant. She hesitated and said, “I can get my clan to refine medium-grade beast spirit treasures, but the consumption…”

Shen Ping smiled and said, “I can give you a Magma Fire Earth Flame Crystal.”

This thing was rare to other Beast Spirit geniuses, but with the Eye of Sea Beast, he had searched for a total of ten over the years.

Yin Ting’s eyes lit up as she agreed. She could not obtain high-grade beast spirit treasures, but mid-grade beast spirit treasures could also greatly increase her strength. “You should have other natural treasures on you, right?” After a moment of hesitation, Yin Ting couldn’t help but ask.

“Yes. Jade Silk Flower, Purple Thunder Ginseng Grass.”

These two rare treasures could be combined with the restricted resources of the Strange Beast to refine medicinal pills that could increase the purity of the Strange Beast’s blood. They were equally important to Beast Spirit geniuses. This was because the purer the Strange Beast’s blood was, the faster one’s comprehension of the Strange Beast’s might and concept would be.

If it was anything else, Yin Ting would not speak, but when it came to the rare treasures of the underground palace, she knew very well how precious they were. However, after Shen Ping said it, she did not know how to continue.

“I can provide it to you.”

When Yin Ting heard this, she was silent for a moment. Then, she bit her lip and said, “What, what do you need?”

“Just follow the previous conditions.” Shen Ping said casually. He really did not have any special needs now. On the other hand, he had to store more immortal spirit stones. This was because in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, the spiritual energy was inferior to the spiritual energy in the five continents and four seas. When his wife, concubine, and Dao-companions came, he could use the immortal spirit stones to set up an array formation and improve the environment, allowing them to cultivate extremely quickly like in the five continents and four seas.

“I don’t want to owe you anything.” Yin Ting said in a low voice.

Shen Ping went forward and hugged her soft armor and slender waist. He smiled and said, “I understand. If I don’t trade with you, I won’t be able to find anyone else, so you don’t have to feel like you owe me anything. If you feel bad, give me more spirit herbs and immortal spirit stones.”

“Okay..”
