Chapter 812: Disciple, Don’t Be Insolent (2)
-Ordinary immortal spirit stones are not very useful to us. Even if we absorb one, we won’t be able to recover much immortal power. High-grade immortal spirit stones are different. After absorbing half of them, an immortal king like me can recover 30% of my immortal power. If I have 30% of my immortal power, as long as I don’t use it recklessly, I will live a more comfortable life here.”
To be honest, Shen Ping did not lack immortal spirit stones. He could enter the Strange Beast Gate at any time and obtain a large number of immortal spirit stones through other Beast Spirits. In order to maintain his abundant immortal power at all times, Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong directly gave him 100,000 high-grade immortal spirit crystals. One immortal spirit crystal was equivalent to 100 high-grade immortal spirit stones.
Immortal spirit crystals were very precious. In the entire human territory, only Venerable Sovereigns dared to spend so much.
“Brother Ao Gu, I’ll give you a hundred high-grade immortal spirit stones.
Shen Ping took 100 high-grade immortal spirit stones from the storage of the immortal artifact.
Ao Gu’s eyes widened. He had never seen such a generous and straightforward Heavenly Immortal. This was a hundred high-grade immortal spirit stones, not ordinary immortal spirit stones. Initially, he was worried that the other party did not have any on him, but in the end, he gave it to him without even blinking.
“Li-Little Brother Shen, I, Ao Gu, will definitely be your friend.” He patted his chest and said, “You’re forthright. If I were to be shy, I would be too inhumane. Here, these are two longevity stones. One for you and one for this girl. The Longevity Stone is very important in this Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land.”
He handed Shen Ping and Lian Xuejin a stone that was covered in blood and looked like pebbles.
Next, Shen Ping asked some more questions and gradually understood the situation of the entire Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land. Although the Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land was incomparably vast, it was generally divided into six regions. They were primeval forests, mountain swamps, desert valleys, continuous mountains, grasslands, and lakes. Every region had primitive tribes of various sizes. Immortals of various races lived in them. Most of these immortals were Grand Unity Golden Immortals, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Venerables. They had survived after years of elimination. Those who could occupy a tribe were basically like Ao Gu and had powerful physical divine powers.
The primitive forest area was mainly the area where humans were active. The largest was the Maji Tribe, which was located in the upper reaches of the Tiantong River. Its mountain owner was a powerful Immortal Venerable who had comprehended more than 80% of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. According to Ao Gu, the other party had the highest chance of becoming a Venerable Sovereign and leaving the Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land.
The Longevity Stone came from a mysterious area, the Di Yun Mountain. Almost every hundred years, all the tribes would go to the Di Yun Mountain to fight for the Longevity Stone. If a tribe could not obtain it, they would slowly decline and die.
Apart from that, there was still a terrifying earth beast in this land. Once it appeared, it would bring disaster. This was also the reason why the immortals living here wanted to form a tribe. Only then could they escape when the earth beast appeared.
Late at night, there was not a single star in the sky. Beside the fork of the Tiantong River, a bonfire burned in a house built of tall trees.
Lian Xuejin sighed softly, “These immortals entered the Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land in search of opportunities, but now, in order to survive, they have no choice but to live humbly. Why do they have to do this? In the outside Immortal Realm, every one of them is an expert who oversees an overlord.
Now?”
Shen Ping shook his head. “They chose it themselves. They can’t blame anyone.”
“I’m just a little emotional. Disciple, it’s best not to reveal that you can have immortal spirit stones at any time. If those Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings know, they will definitely do anything to get immortal spirit stones from you. If they recover their immortal power, we’ll be in danger.”
Lian Xuejin reminded him.
Shen Ping nodded. “I understand. Ao Gu looks worth befriending.”
“You can’t judge a book by its cover. You have to be careful in everything.
“I know.”
Looking at the dignified, holy, and charming face reflected by the bonfire, Shen Ping hesitated for a moment and mustered his courage to say, Master, there’s something I don’t know if I should say.
“What is it?”
“The last time in the green hall world of Realm Sea Peak, does Master have memories?”
Lian Xuejin’s face turned red. “No, even a Venerable Sovereign can’t have memories. How can I have them? Don’t think too much.”
However, Shen Ping stared at Lian Xuejin. “Master, you’re not good at lying. You must have memories. Actually, I have them too. I only remember that I seemed to be with Master—”
“Don’t say it! I’m tired. I’ll meditate and rest first.”
Lian Xuejin hurriedly got up.
Shen Ping grabbed Lian Xuejin’s wrist. “Master, do you remember Lian Nishang?”
As soon as this name came out, Lian Xuejin’s body stiffened and her eyes became blurry. When she felt a broad chest gradually pressing against her back, she suddenly woke up and quickly scolded, “Disciple, what are you doing? I don’t remember Lian Nishang.”
With that, she broke free from Shen Ping’s hand and left quickly.
He looked at Lian Xuejin’s back. Shen Ping lowered his head and looked at his hand. This was the first time he had touched that warm and soft skin intimately. As for his master’s scolding just now, he did not care.
“Master really does have memories. It does seem to be the virtual panel.
The next day, the two of them acted as if nothing had happened and continued to stay in the tribe, fishing with the Ao Gu. The fish in the Tiantong River was delicious. Most importantly, it contained a trace of Dao runes. If they ate it for a long time, it could increase their comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
“Brother, with your strength, as long as you have immortal power, you can become a mountain chief of a medium-sized tribe. How about it? Are you interested?” Ao Gu asked with a smile.
Shen Ping shook his head. “Brother Ao, don’t joke around. I’m not interested in being a mountain chief. I just want to leave the forbidden land as soon as possible.”
Ao Gu laughed. “Every Immortal who just came here thinks so, but as time passes, they will recognize reality. If they want to leave, they have to master the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. This step is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. They might as well enjoy the rest of their time.” He whispered in her ear, “I have a good place to go. I’m sure you’ll miss it.”
Lian Xuejin harrumphed.
Ao Gu continued nonchalantly, “Those women are all outstanding beauties, pure and untainted. In the Immortal Realm outside, every one of them is a high and mighty fairy. I can’t even come into contact with Immortal Kings. Over here, hehe, without immortal energy, they are no different from ordinary people. For the price of a longevity stone, you can do whatever you want for a year.”
Shen Ping blinked. “Brother Ao Gu, a woman who can become an immortal king shouldn’t do such a humiliating thing for the Longevity Stone, right?” Ao Gu sneered and said, “You only know one thing and don’t know the other. Most of the female fairies who seek opportunities naturally won’t humiliate themselves like this, but the Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land doesn’t only have such fairies. Moreover, with the passage of time, no matter how strong one’s will and mental state are, they will ultimately lose to reality. Ignoring everything else, just the women in my tribe, if you are willing to take out the Longevity Stone, they won’t hesitate to serve you. In the end, it’s just an immortal’s skin.”
Shen Ping understood the deeper meaning behind these words. There were countless immortal cities of various sizes in the human territory, and there were many immortal realms. Of course, it was impossible for them to be peaceful. The so-called seeking for opportunities was sometimes a helpless choice.
A few days later, in the sky above Tiantong River, the three of them rode immortal swords upstream.
Ao Gu said enviously, “Brother, it’s good that you have immortal spirit stones. I don’t know how long it has been since I last activated this immortal artifact to fly. When we reach the Maji Tribe later, I’ll treat you. I’ll definitely let Brother Shen enjoy the differences of this Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land.” Shen Ping smiled and did not refuse. He also wanted to see the beauty of a fairy. Of course, he was definitely not thinking about that. He purely wanted to see if there were any fairies with special physiques.
Lian Xuejin’s face was cold and she did not say a word the entire time..
