Ling Hao and the other four strongest prodigies, who were closest, hurriedly activated their top-notch beast spirit treasures to kill the insects.
It was at this moment that Shen Ping saw the insect energy on the surface of the sheepskin scroll through the Pupil of Sea Beast. The reason why he was willing to join forces was naturally because of this sheepskin scroll. He did not expect the sheepskin scroll to crack. He reacted the fastest. He teleported through the gap between the insects and arrived at the core. He grabbed the largest sheepskin scroll and sent the other four scattered pieces flying again with the magical power of the strange beast.
The reason why he did this was firstly because he could not instantly obtain all five scattered sheepskin scrolls. Secondly, it was to divert the attention of the other prodigies and let them fight for the remaining four small pieces instead of staring at him. After all, if the other prodigies surrounded him, he would definitely not be able to withstand it even if he had restrictions.
Indeed, although his actions attracted hostility, the strongest prodigies of the Demon Race and the Flame Race at the edge still rushed towards the four small sheepskin scrolls that had scattered. Ling Hao, Bai Xin, and the others had just activated their forms and had no time to snatch them.
By the time Shen Ping disappeared, Ling Hao, Bai Xin, and the others had already killed the insects. Then, they could not be bothered to look for Shen Ping and hurriedly fought for the remaining four small pieces.
“Hand over the sheepskin scroll!”
Even though they were allies, Ling Hao and Bai Xin were not polite to the two strongest prodigies of the Demon Race and the Flame Race. This was a natural oddity. Even if it was divided into five pieces, any one of them was extremely valuable.
But how could the two strongest prodigies of the Demon Race and the Flame Race hand it over so easily? In any case, neither of them could do anything to the other, so the two sides immediately fought.
However, this had nothing to do with Shen Ping anymore. After teleporting out of the cave, he immediately found Yin Ting. In fact, when they left the cave, he had sent a voice transmission to Yin Ting to ask her to leave.
Seeing that Shen Ping was safe and sound, Yin Ting heaved a sigh of relief. After knowing the details of the fight, she cursed, “Aren’t these geniuses too cunning?”
Shen Ping smiled. “The strong prey on the weak. How precious is the essence of beast blood? How can they be willing to share it with other beast spirit geniuses? The agreement is only temporary. However, I’ve gained a lot this time. I’ve obtained the largest piece of the sheepskin scroll.”
He was here for the sheepskin scroll to begin with. Otherwise, why would he agree to kill the insects with them? Moreover, even if he wanted to attack, he would first get Ling Hao and the other prodigies to give him ten pieces of beast blood essence. Otherwise, he would definitely not attack.
“Let’s go to the central area.”
The two of them did not stay at the end of the upper area for long and hurriedly returned to the middle area through the main passageway.
Half a month later, in a passageway in the upper area, Ling Hao held a small sheepskin scroll in his hand with a gloomy expression. Although he had successfully snatched the sheepskin scroll from the Demon Race, he could clearly obtain the greatest harvest this time. Who knew that the fruit would be snatched away by that human prodigy at the critical moment? If it was any other race, even if the Realm Clan obtained it, he could gather all the prodigies of the Spirit Race to pressure them and even kill them at all costs to obtain it in the end. However, that human ran too quickly and there were only two of them. There was no way to chase him.
Now that the remaining three small sheepskin scrolls had fallen into the hands of the Devil Clan, the Realm Clan, and the Stone Clan, if he wanted to use the Spirit Race’s numerical advantage to pressure them, the other party would definitely join forces.
“Damn it! That human’s escape technique is too powerful. He can actually pass through the insects!”
He carefully recalled the moment when the sheepskin scroll in the Cave Hall split open. At that time, a large number of insects scattered in all directions. The gap between them was very small. Even a top-notch escape technique could not pass through. As long as they encountered insects, they would be in danger. However, the human was very decisive. The other party was very confident that he would not come into contact with insects.
There were some strange icons on the sheepskin scroll.
Although Ling Hao could not understand, he knew that this was definitely extraordinary. “I have to take back that huge piece. Even if he can escape in the cave world, he can’t escape in reality!”
The Devil Clan’s Bai Xin thought so too.
On the other hand, because the Realm Race and the Stone Race were extremely far from human territory, even if they had such thoughts, it was difficult for the race to interfere.
Shen Ping and Yin Ting continued to investigate the central area for the rest of the time. However, without the secret passage’s mark, they could only rely on the Pupil of Sea Beast to search. Their efficiency was much lower, and they did not find the place where the insects gathered for several months.
Neither of them found a single Beast Blood’s Essence until the end of the ten years in the cave world. However, their harvest this time was already very generous. Not only did they obtain more than five hundred Beast Blood’s Essences, but they also obtained the World Pearl and the sheepskin scroll.
On this day, the two of them were walking in the passageway when they suddenly felt a repulsive force. Before they could react, their vision suddenly darkened. When they recovered, they were already in the main hall of the palace.
“Damned human, you’d better hand over that sheepskin scroll. Otherwise, you’ll definitely regret it.” The Devil Clan’s Bai Xin said coldly.
The strongest prodigies did not say anything about the outcome of the competition for the natural oddities in the cave hall. When they heard Bai Xin’s words, they immediately understood and revealed shocked expressions. Their gazes gathered on Shen Ping. They really could not think of how the human prodigy had snatched the sheepskin scroll. One had to know that the cave hall had gathered the ten strongest prodigies, including the top three like Ling Hao! However, Shen Ping was very indifferent. “Treasures belong to the capable. Besides, I only took what originally belonged to me.”
The prodigy of the Demon Race was already angry. When he heard this, he immediately said angrily, “What right do you have? If you didn’t rely on a top-notch beast spirit treasure, you wouldn’t even have the right to cultivate here!”
Shen Ping sneered. “Whether I’m qualified or not is up to you.” Speaking of this, he looked at Bai Xin, “If you want the sheepskin scroll, sure. Take out all the beast blood’s essence.”
Bai Xin said coldly, “In your dreams. Just wait. Your life in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness won’t be easy.”
Shen Ping could not be bothered with the other party anymore. At this moment, Ling Hao looked over and sent a voice transmission, “Fellow Daoist Shen, how about 50 beast blood’s essences?”
Shen Ping smiled. “Are you trying to get rid of beggars? Don’t even think about it if you don’t have a thousand.”
Ling Hao directly fell silent. He had already treated Shen Ping as a dead person in his heart. There was no need to argue with a dead person.
Psst. The phantom of the black-robed Artifact Spirit in the main hall of the palace condensed again. It smiled gently and said, “Not bad. It seems that you’ve gained a lot this time. I hope that you can rely on the essence of the Beast Blood to be reborn. However, I have to remind you that the essence of the Beast Blood is not so easy to use. I hope that the next time I see you, you’ll already be true Beast Spirits. Oh right, the opportunity to comprehend the Realm Sea Palace is equally important. The effect will be better if you use the beast blood’s essence after comprehending it.”
The entire palace shook. Shen Ping and the others were all kicked out. He returned to the first floor of the Heavenly Palace, Shen Ping came to the third floor of the underground palace through the mark of the strange beast to meet Yin Ting.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, just give me one.”
“Alright, I’ll give you one every three years.”
He had more than 500 in his hands and did not need to save at all. However, since the artifact spirit senior said that the beast blood’s essence was not easy to use, it would probably be difficult to use in the future. Therefore, after separating from Yin Ting, he was not in a hurry to go to the Realm Sea Palace. Instead, he left the Strange Beast Gate first.
In the quiet room, Shen Ping took out the essence of the beast’s blood. As soon as he used it, the strange beast blood in his body boiled. Shocking beast roars burst forth from the blood and spread to his sea of consciousness. Then, a pain that entered his bones and soul spread throughout his body.
Roar! Roar! That beastly roar shook the soul. If one’s willpower was not firm or their sea of consciousness was weak, they would directly collapse at this moment. The entire process lasted for ten hours.
After it ended, Shen Ping was completely spread out in the quiet room. It was as if he had lost all his strength and could not move at all. Another six hours passed before his body gradually recovered. The information contained in the beast blood essence swept over and pulled him into that ancient battlefield.
In the blink of an eye, ten years passed.
The effect of the beast’s blood essence was completely absorbed by Shen Ping. However, before he could sort it out, he sensed the trembling of the dazzling crystal..
