Chapter 585 - 585: True Beast Spirit (2)
When Shen Ping went into seclusion again, the situation in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness became worse and worse. In order to get rid of Shen Ping once and for all, the upper echelons of the immortal Dao of the various races could be said to have gone all out this time. A large number of Golden Immortals had descended to the lower realm. The Demon Race had even sent True Demons, Ancient Demons, and other experts to infiltrate the Abyss of Supreme Darkness from the spatial rift and attack the cities under the True Treasure Pavilion.
Although the human defense line in the Starry Sea had sent many Heavenly Immortal-level experts to secretly defend, they could not withstand the sneak attack of the Demon Race, especially the True Demons who were relatively weak. If they used some methods to hide their auras or disguise themselves as cultivators of the Demon Sect, even if the Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals of the human race used large-scale immortal artifacts to investigate, they would inevitably escape.
And it was these fish that escaped the net that dealt a huge blow to the various cities. Although the humans had condemned the True Demons and Ancient Demons of the Demon Race several times, saying that they had attacked cultivators from the lower realm, these True Demons and Ancient Demons were very slippery. Every time they attacked, they only used the strength of an Itinerant Immortal, preventing the humans from finding evidence.
In just 20 years, more than 30 cultivation cities were destroyed one after another. After hundreds of years, the cultivation world in the Western District of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, which was rapidly developing under the protection of the True Treasure Pavilion, fell into darkness again.
The Tai Hua Sect and other sects in the Penglai Immortal City had been attacked. The Tai Hua Sect’s grand elder couldn’t care less about his face and visited several times, wanting to meet Shen Ping.
“Fellow Daoist Yue, if Pavilion Master Shen doesn’t appear, I’m afraid the human cultivation world of the Western District will completely fall.” Itinerant Immortal Hong Ling personally accompanied him to City Lord Manor. However, as Shen Ping was still in seclusion, it was Hong Ling who met Fairy Luo Xia. As for Yu Yan, Wang Yun, and the others, their cultivation levels were too low. They were not qualified to interact with Itinerant Immortals. “Senior Hong Ling, once my husband enters seclusion, even Sister Wang Yun won’t disturb him. I know the current situation very well, but I really have no choice. Please forgive me.” Yue Lingluo shook her head.
Itinerant Immortal Hong Ling frowned and could not say anything else. All she could do was continue waiting.
On the defense line of the sea of stars, the Golden Immortals and other experts of the human race personally patrolled the defense line every day. Sometimes, they would even fight the Golden Immortals of the Devil Clan and the Spirit Race. However, even if the environment of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness was special, it was still suppressed by the rules of the lower realm, causing the Golden Immortals of the various races to find it difficult to unleash powerful strength. Therefore, they could only rely on a large number of Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals to attack the defense line and exhaust the power of the defense line.
Of course, their main goal was to attract the power of the Human Race’s lower realm and rely on the infiltration of the Demon Race to open up the situation.
In the hall of the alliance of the various races, Golden Immortal Ling Chen asked, “After so long, has the Demon Race still not hidden in Gray Stone City?” An Ancient Demon from the Demon Clan replied, “The Human Clan’s defense is very strict, especially the City Lord Manor of Gray Stone City. There seems to be an extremely powerful immortal formation. As long as you approach, you will be discovered. It will be very difficult to infiltrate.”
Golden Immortal Ling Chen frowned. Although the battle at the defense line was intense, most of the time, they were only attacking the array formation. With the foundation of the human race in array formations, it would take them at least a thousand years to break through the defense line. It was precisely because of this that the Demon Race could infiltrate from the spatial rift.
“Is there no solution?”
“Currently, our clan has discussed and plans to let the human cultivators of the Demon Sect sneak into Gray Stone City with the Ancient Demons and wait for an opportunity.”
“That’s a good idea.”
In the quiet room of the City Lord Manor, Shen Ping turned a deaf ear to the chaos outside. Even though he knew that the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and the others had increased their strength to target him, he was not anxious. Instead, he continued to digest and absorb the essence of the beast’s blood calmly. “The sixth one! This is the limit after upgrading my divine sense to the peak of the Tribulation Transcendence realm.” He looked at the dazzling beast blood’s essence in his hand. He took it again.
Half a year later, his comprehension of the Beast Blood level had increased to 30%. The further he went, the more difficult it was to comprehend the Beast Scripture. Even the increase in the essence of the Beast Blood began to slow down, but this was still much more efficient than comprehending it on his own.
“Disciple, how’s the situation after consuming the beast blood’s essence?”
“I stopped at the sixth.” Shen Ping replied and asked about the situation of the strongest prodigies of the various races.
Lian Xuejin said, “Right now, that Ling Hao is still on the ninth one, and the strongest prodigies of the Devil Clan and the Flame Race have all reached the ninth one. Clearly, they have increased the strength of their souls. There is news that claimed that the strongest prodigies of the Realm Clan and the Stone Clan had absorbed more than ten and become true Beast Spirits. Not only the strongest prodigies, but there seem to be other prodigies that are the same. This should have a lot to do with their bloodline.”
Shen Ping was stunned. “Bloodline?”
“That’s right. Among the races, the bloodlines of these special races contain the purest bloodlines of strange beasts. They claim to be descendants of strange beasts, and even if the myriad races, including us humans, swallow the refined blood of strange beasts, the purity of their bloodlines will be limited.” Lian Xuejin smiled and said, “It’s already not bad that you can take six.”
Seeing that Shen Ping did not respond, she called out a few times. Only then did Shen Ping say, “Master, I have some comprehension and have to continue my seclusion.”
“Alright, by the way, you have to be careful of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness. You have to be especially careful of the place you live. Don’t let unrelated people enter the array of the City Lord Manor.” Lian Xuejin reminded him.
Shen Ping nodded. “I understand.”
In fact, he was not worried about anything. After all, the Immortal Array of the City Lord Manor was obtained by trading with Immortal Venerable Qi and Immortal Venerable Yu. Even Golden Immortals could not destroy it. If a Demon Race infiltrated, once the Immortal Array was activated, even Golden Immortals would die.
The exchange ended. The corner of his mouth muttered the bloodline. From the looks of it, the higher the purity of the bloodline, the lower the requirement to consume the essence of the beast blood. Speaking of which, the purity of the bloodline that could display the talent of the strange beast was definitely much higher than the Realm Race and the Stone Race.
Thinking of this, he took a few deep breaths, his eyes shining with excitement. If his guess was right, then he might be ahead of the other geniuses this time.
He took out the beast blood’s essence again. Then, he activated his enhancement talent.
Whoosh. The blood in his body instantly underwent some subtle changes. It was difficult for Shen Ping to feel it, but he continued to activate his other talents, teleportation, and the Pupil of Sea Beast. Immediately, his skin turned sky-blue. His blood boiled, producing waves of clear heat.
“Although I relied on the virtual interface to forcefully obtain the strange beast talent, since I used it, at least at this moment, the strange beast blood in my body is enough to support the talent!”
He stared at the beast blood’s essence and began to take it.
Boom!
As the blood-colored liquid in the beast blood’s essence flowed, waves of beast roars sounded again. His divine sense seemed to have arrived at the ancient battlefield. The pressure of the huge creature seemed to be right in front of him. Unlike before, not only did he not feel uncomfortable under the vast pressure this time, but he also felt a sense of familiarity.
He was immersed in this state.
Unknowingly, a large amount of information contained in the beast blood’s essence fused into Shen Ping’s sea of consciousness. Half a year has passed. After completely absorbing and digesting it, he suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils flickering with excitement.
It was done!
He had really successfully consumed the seventh beast blood’s essence.
“In the enhanced state, my strength has also changed, and my divine sense has increased. Perhaps it has something to do with this. Continue!”
Eighth, ninth. He kept it going until the tenth one! His spiritual sea did not feel the collapse of his consciousness and soul like before.
Shen Ping could not help but laugh. Under his strange beast talent, the purity of the strange beast blood contained in his blood was indeed as he had guessed. It was even higher than the Realm Clan and the Stone Clan.
“Beast Spirit, I should be a real Beast Spirit now!”
His divine sense seeped into his body. He saw a strange meridian opened up by a large amount of beast blood’s essence. This meridian seemed to not exist at all. It was faint, but his divine sense could clearly sense it.
On the surface of the meridians, there were special patterns that were similar to immortal runes. They intertwined and formed the meridians.
As soon as Shen Ping’s divine sense touched these patterns, his consciousness vaguely sensed a fluctuation. This fluctuation was very obscure, like layers of gauze wrapped around it. No matter how hard he tried, he could not touch the gauze.
In just a few breaths, the huge spiritual energy in his sea of consciousness was directly exhausted, and waves of fainting swept over..
