Chapter 455 - 455: How Did He Do It? (2)
Yan Yu gritted his teeth and said, “Idiot, if our Flame Clan had a way, we would have taken it away long ago. Do they still need me to come in? Believe it or not, that guy definitely won’t leave the underground palace. He should be hiding somewhere.”
Bai Yu frowned. “Yan Yu, do you mean a special high-grade beast spirit treasure?”
“Yes. That guy was able to enter the third level of the underground palace because he passed through the Heaven Ascension Hall. And to be able to hide the aura of the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit, it must be a special high-level beast spirit treasure. Although such a beast spirit treasure has never appeared before, it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist!” Yan Yu said coldly.
There were many types of high-grade beast spirit treasures in the Underground Palace, especially in the Heavenly Palace. The probability of special high-grade beast spirit treasures appearing was very high. For example, the prodigy of the Spirit Race, Ling Yue, had obtained an aura lock, making her an extremely difficult prodigy to deal with.
“If that’s the case, his target must be the special and harsh area on the third level of the underground palace. From the traces of the battle, he should have just left not long ago. Chase!”
Their guess was actually correct, but it was impossible for them to think that Shen Ping had used his strange beast talent and used the Heaven Ascension Hall in the depths of space to hide the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit.
Therefore, no matter how they searched, it was destined to be fruitless.
Two days later, these prodigies who had gained nothing could only leave with unwillingness and anger. Even though they did not know what method that human Beast Spirit genius had used to snatch it away and conceal the aura of the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit, ordinary Beast Spirit geniuses could leave the underground palace in two days.
In the star-like palace in the core territory of the Devil Clan, the huge body of the Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign emitted endless pressure. Space even shattered inch by inch. Although its expression was calm, anyone could sense the Venerable Sovereign’s anger.
“Is this the result of you guys spending so many resources to nurture prodigies? You let a human Beast Spirit genius snatch the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit under your noses?”
His voice shook the palace. It made a rumbling sound. The dozens of behemoths below the throne did not even dare to release a trace of their aura. They could not understand how that Beast Spirit genius of the human race had done it, but it had already happened.
A long time passed before the space returned to normal. The Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign glanced down coldly. “I’ll let it go this time. I don’t want there to be a next time!”
“Yes, Venerable Sovereign. We’ll do our best to destroy that human Beast Spirit genius later!”
“Idiot!”
“Ah… Venerable Sovereign, we will definitely obtain the treasure to conceal the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit from him!”
The upper echelons of the Winged Race were also discussing the matter of the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit being snatched.
“It’s really unbelievable. That human Beast Spirit genius is only at the Divine Transformation Realm, but he can snatch the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit. Moreover, he snatched it under the noses of many prodigies. Even if he has a special high-level Beast Spirit Treasure, how did he leave in a short period of time?!”
“According to my race’s Beast Spirit genius, Yin Ting, the other party hasn’t even condensed the mark of a strange beast. Naturally, it’s Impossible for him to rely on the mark of a strange beast. Therefore, there must be a huge secret on his body!”
“If we can obtain such a secret, our clan might be able to easily obtain the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit the next time it appears.”
“Is Yin Ting close to this guy?”
“That’s right. There’s already a bloodline exchange.”
“Very good. Pass down the order. Tell Yin Ting to obtain this secret at all costs. No matter what needs she has, the clan will provide it.”
In the human Misty Peak’s palace, the higher-ups of the human race who received the news were still a little stunned. Although they were looking forward to a miracle, they did not expect that a miracle would really happen. In the end, the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit was actually snatched away by their human race’s Beast Spirit genius. Even after confirming the news repeatedly, they still found it unbelievable.
“Zhenbao, has the guardian of the Nine Continents Tower contacted that little fellow?” The human Venerable Sovereign’s voice was extremely gentle, and he had a refreshing smile on his face.
The other Immortal Venerables also looked at Zhenbao and smiled.
Sect Master Zhenbao, who was standing, said nervously, “Venerable Sovereign, we haven’t contacted the guardian yet. I’ll send another message tomorrow.” The human Venerable Sovereign smiled and said, “There’s no hurry. The prodigies of the various races have been searching the third level of the underground palace for two days, but they haven’t found any traces of that little fellow. I think he must have used some very special method. This method should consume a lot of energy. It’s normal for him not to respond now.” The other Immortal Venerables nodded. To be able to conceal the aura of the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit and not let the Beast Spirit prodigies discover it, such a method was simply unheard of. How could there not be any consumption? Moreover, they deduced that the consumption was definitely not small.
“Yes!”
After Sect Master Zhenbao left, Immortal Venerable Qi could not help but say, “Genius Shen is simply a blessing to our human race! Not only is he a blessing for the human race, but he’s also the pride of our human race! To be able to obtain the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit among the many prodigies, Genius Shen is the number one person in the Underground Palace and the Heavenly Palace!” The other Immortal Venerables echoed one after another.
Immortal Venerable Qi looked at Venerable Sovereign and said, “Venerable Sovereign, if you take action, can you guide Genius Shen to the core territory of our human race?”
The smile on the human Venerable Sovereign’s face faded a little. He shook his head and sighed. “It’s very difficult. Those old fellows from the Devil Clan, the Spirit Clan, the Demon Clan, and the Flame Clan are watching me. It’s fine if I only take the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit, but if I guide that little fellow, it will definitely cause them to take action. Although I’m not afraid, it’s difficult to take care of him. Once something goes wrong…”
The Immortal Venerables were silent for a moment. When a Venerable Sovereign attacked, just the aftershock was not something ordinary Immortal Venerables could withstand. If there was any mistake, Shen Ping would definitely be destroyed in body and soul.
Of course, what they didn’t know was that the human Venerable Sovereign wasn’t most worried about the Venerable Sovereigns of the various races interfering. Instead, he was most worried about the hidden hand hidden in the human race. Back then, the news of the Nine Continents Tower’s treasure suppressing the strange beast was leaked by him. This included the time when the Immortal Venerables of the various races entered the core territory of the human race. It was probably arranged by the other party.
Although he had taken the opportunity to eliminate many spies of the various races, he had yet to find the deepest one.
If he personally guided the genius, not to mention whether he would succeed, even if he succeeded, he might not be safe after reaching the core territory. In fact, it might not even be as safe as his current situation.
This was also the main reason why the human Venerable Sovereign did not tell him where he was immediately after contacting the guardian of the human race’s supreme treasure.
“As long as we can obtain the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit, our clan can have an Immortal Venerable enter the Strange Beast Gate. At that time, the pressure on that little fellow will also decrease greatly.”
Although the Nine Continents Tower and the strange beast it suppressed were also very important, Immortal Venerable entering the Strange Beast Gate not only meant the rise of the Myriad Spirit Ranking, but also an opportunity to come into contact with and explore the mysteries of longevity. The upper echelons of the various races would naturally focus on this Immortal Venerable.
Shen Ping closed his eyes and sat cross-legged to cultivate in the Heaven Ascension Hall. Activating the three strange beast talents consumed a lot of his body. Coupled with the fact that he had continuously activated the Eye of Sea Beast previously, he almost couldn’t hold on this time.
Therefore, he did not have the energy to respond to his master’s message at all. As the strange beast’s energy in his dantian gradually recovered, the speed at which he absorbed the strange stone became faster and faster. In the end, his entire body produced an energy vortex. The strange beast’s power converted in his meridians quickly nourished his bones, blood, and meridians.
Half a month later, the burning sensation in his bones finally subsided completely. However, Shen Ping did not get up. Instead, he continued to sit cross-legged and recover. Another three days passed.
After his condition completely recovered, he opened his eyes and got up to move around. Then, his divine sense penetrated his storage ring to check on the beast pattern golden fruit. It was translucent and he could clearly see blood-colored patterns on the inside of the fruit. These patterns vaguely condensed into a strange beast pattern.
He retracted his divine sense. Without looking at the other gains, Shen Ping took out the dazzling crystal first. “Master.”
As soon as his voice sounded, Lian Xuejin’s gentle voice sounded. “Disciple, how are you?” Although her voice was calm, Shen Ping could still hear the rare hint of anxiety.
“I’m fine.”
Lian Xuejin heaved a sigh of relief and said softly, “Disciple, is the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit with you?”
“Yes.
“Although I don’t know how you obtained it, it must be extremely dangerous. I’ve let you down this time..1‘
