Chapter 804: Preparations Before Ascension (2)
The black-robed Artifact Spirit chuckled and did not continue this topic. Instead, it said, “You came out early. When this palace world opens, you won’t be able to enter again. You can only continue to enter after the other Beast Spirits leave. However, that world is no longer of any help to you.”
“I understand.” Shen Ping nodded and asked, “Senior, when will the other bracelet of Realm Sea Peak open?”
The authority of the green bracelet was extremely important. If he could obtain another one, then he could allow his wife, concubine, and dao companions to enter the palace world and comprehend the great dao of heaven and earth inside. After all, if he wanted to comprehend it outside, he had to be at least at the Immortal King level.
However, in the palace world, even True Immortals could comprehend it.
The black-robed artifact spirit smiled and said, “The bracelet of the palace world will only open after you obtain the blue bracelet from the Realm Sea. You will sense the location of the bracelet when you enter the Realm Sea. However, let me remind you that with your current strength, you can’t obtain the blue bracelet at all.”
“Senior, may I know what strength is needed to obtain the bracelet of the Realm Sea?”
There were a total of five authority bracelets in the Realm Sea Peak. After completely obtaining them, one could control the Realm Sea Peak. Although he did not know what level of treasure the Realm Sea Peak was, since it could carry many palace worlds, it was definitely something that surpassed the Great Dao Treasure.
The black rune artifact spirit said, “At the very least, you have to have the strength comparable to a Venerable Sovereign.”
“What? The strength of a Venerable Sovereign?”
Shen Ping was secretly speechless.
The black-robed artifact spirit said casually, “You’ve comprehended more than 50% of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao in the two palace worlds and also comprehended the power of fate. I believe you’ll be able to master the true essence of the Chaotic World very soon. As long as you have the strength of an ordinary Venerable Sovereign, you can go to the Realm Sea.”
Shen Ping hesitated for a moment. “Senior, how vast is the Realm Sea?”
The black-robed artifact spirit laughed. “The Realm Sea is incomparably vast. It’s so huge that it exceeds your imagination. The current exploration of your human race, including the other races, is not even a drop in the ocean. Shen Ping, when you walk out of this world and the Realm Sea, you will know how vast the world is.
“Alright, I’ve said enough. The most important thing for you now is how to comprehend the Great Dao of the Chaos Hole faster.” After saying that, it disappeared.
Shen Ping couldn’t help but think of the 33rd level of the Dao Platform. Even an expert like Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong could only stop at the 10th level. It could be seen that Venerable Sovereigns weren’t at the peak. There should be many living beings who exceeded the strength of Venerable Sovereigns, so ordinary Venerable Sovereigns were indeed nothing.
After leaving Realm Sea Peak, he returned to Gray Stone City in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness.
“My comprehension of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Five Elements, Yin and Yang, and Reincarnation has reached 50%. Among them, the Five Elements, Yin and Yang, and Reincarnation has exceeded 50%. Although it’s only 10% after fusing into the Chaotic Heaven and Earth Great Dao, that artifact spirit senior is right. My combat strength is not far from the most ordinary Venerable Sovereign.
“Furthermore, the chaotic space simulated by the power of fate is extremely powerful. It definitely far exceeds the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth of the same level!”
He sat cross-legged in a quiet room and fall into deep thought. Ever since he entered the Realm Sea Peak and stepped into the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, he knew that the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was the foundation. Although cultivation was also very important, cultivators who had comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth had combat strength that far exceeded ordinary cultivators. In battles of divine powers, and competitions of various methods, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth would form an absolute suppression.
“It’s time to ascend. As long as I transcend the early stages, I believe I can quickly rise in the Immortal Dao territory with my comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and not be afraid of Immortal Kings and Immortal Venerables of the foreign races!”
He had heard Master Tian Hong mention it before. At the same level, for example, if they were all Golden Immortals, Golden Immortals who had comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth could contend with ordinary Grand Unity Golden Immortals. Above Golden Immortals were Mystic Immortals, and above Mystic Immortals were Peerless Golden Immortals. Then, there were Grand Unity Golden Immortals.
Therefore, if he ascended, his strong foundation and his overall combat strength would be comparable to a Mystic Immortal. If he combined it with the talent of a strange beast and a Great Dao treasure, even a Mystic Immortal might not be his match.
Of course, these were only theoretical levels. He still had to fight against them.
“After ascending, I have to try my best to go to the core territory of the human race’s Immortal Dao. That’s the safest place.”
He made a decision in his heart. Only then did he get up and leave the quiet room. He went to the pavilion by the lake. His huge divine sense swept out, and everything in the entire City Lord Residence appeared in his divine sense. Even though he had spent thousands of years in the palace world, as if the world had changed, it had not even been 200 years in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness.
Nothing had changed here, including the entire Gray Stone City. In fact, in another 10,000 years, this prosperous cultivation city would not change much. If there was really a slight difference, it was that the bloodline of the Shen family had increased a little.
His wife, concubine and Dao Companions had gone to other cultivation worlds to travel. Shen Ping did not inform them. Instead, he concealed his aura and walked on the streets of Gray Stone City alone. After so many years of development, Gray Stone City had long become the core of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness. Every year, countless cultivators come here to find their dreams.
He walked around before he returned to the City Lord Manor. As a Tribulation Transcendence expert, he no longer had the mentality to enjoy this prosperous cultivation life with the ordinary cultivators in the city.
Not long after, he had come to the five continents and four seas. He met his master, Lian Xuejin. She was wearing a snow-blue palace dress, and her hair was casually tied up. Although there was no headdress on it, she looked dignified and beautiful. The curves on her chest were not majestic, but they looked round and moderate, as if they matched her figure perfectly.
Lian Xuejin blushed slightly when she saw Shen Ping sizing her up. The memories hidden in her sea of consciousness flickered involuntarily. Recalling the ridiculous and embarrassing actions in her memories, her expression was a little unnatural. She turned her body slightly to the left. “Disciple, why did you come to the Nine Continents Tower this time?”
Only then did Shen Ping say, “Master, I plan to ascend to the immortal Dao territory after a while.”
The distracting thoughts in Lian Xuejin’s mind immediately disappeared without a trace, and her expression became solemn. “Disciple, have you really thought about ascending? To the other cultivators, ascending is a huge matter, and you have to be even more careful. Once you ascend, the upper echelons of the Spirit Race, the Devil Clan, and the Demon Race will definitely interfere.
“Although we have the protection of a Venerable Sovereign, he’s only one person after all. He can’t take care of everything. When the time comes, an accident might happen.”
Shen Ping knew this. “Master, I have the protection of the Great Dao treasure, the Heavenly Star Armor. There’s no problem with my safety. Even if an accident happens, I believe it won’t be a big problem. If I continue to stay in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, it will be very difficult for me to increase my cultivation.”
After comprehending the Chaos Great Dao, he could use 30% of the Heavenly Star Armor’s power. This was a Great Dao treasure. Even 30% of its power was enough to withstand the attacks of other Venerable Sovereigns.
When she saw Shen Ping’s serious expression, Lian Xuejin knew that her disciple had already made a decision. She slowly nodded and said, “In that case, I won’t persuade you anymore. It’s good to ascend. Only when you reach the territory of the immortal Dao will you have a wider world.
“However, we need to inform the Venerable Sovereign about this so that we can make sufficient preparations.”
“Understood.”
Soon, Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong received the news. In the room in the core space of the Nine Continents Tower, the Venerable Sovereign’s projection descended. When he saw Shen Ping, he only asked, “Disciple, are you prepared to ascend?”
Shen Ping nodded solemnly. “I’m preparing to officially ascend in two years.”
“Ascension is a big thing. There’s no need for me to say anything. You should know that the Venerable Sovereigns of the various races will definitely attack. They’re even waiting for you to ascend.”
As Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong spoke, he handed Shen Ping an ancient jade. “This ancient jade is a treasure I obtained in the Realm Sea. Its material is special and can protect your soul. If anything happens, it can at least protect your soul.”
Originally, his strength was enough to protect Shen Ping. However, Shen Ping was too outstanding and far exceeded his expectations. Therefore, when he ascended, it was difficult for him to be 100% confident in protecting this disciple..
