Chapter 588: The Itinerant Immortal of the Spirit Race Is Stunned (1)

The reason why the human cultivators in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness were surrounded and killed by the alliance of the various races was because of Shen Ping. If not for him, a Beast Spirit genius, the higher-ups of the Devil Clan and Spirit Race in the Penglai Immortal City would not have cared about these cultivators with lower cultivation levels. Their target was powerful sects like the Tai Hua Sect.
Although Shen Ping knew this in his heart, he did not know the purpose of this Supreme Elder of the Tai Hua Sect saying this. Therefore, he thought for a moment and slowly said, “Senior Hua, our True Treasure Pavilion is a human faction to begin with. Now that the foreign races are wreaking havoc, as a member of the human race, our True Treasure Pavilion naturally will not stand by and do nothing. Moreover, if I’m not wrong, the ones blocking the front line are the members of the True Treasure Pavilion.”
Hua Yun shook his head. He looked at Shen Ping and said, “Pavilion Master Shen, I believe you know better than me why the alliance of the foreign races wants to attack the human cultivators this time. Facing the alliance of the various races, even my Penglai Immortal City can’t protect ourselves. If this continues, the human cultivators in the Western District will definitely wither, and the cultivation environment will be even worse.”
Shen Ping frowned. “Senior Hua, if you have something to say, why don’t you say it?”
“It’s like this. With Pavilion Master Shen’s identity, it shouldn’t be difficult to seek the protection of the Immortal Dao seniors in the Starry Sea. If such an expert appears, the crisis of our Western District will naturally be resolved.” Hua Yun said seriously.
Only then did Shen Ping come to a realization. So this was the plan of this supreme elder. Initially, he thought that the other party knew a lot. Now, it seemed that the other party probably only knew that he was a Beast Spirit genius and knew nothing else.
This was because there were True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals hidden around Gray Stone City and Sword Seal City in the sea of stars. Moreover, they would sweep the main area of the entire Western District every month. Once they discovered experts from the Demon Race infiltrating, they would directly kill them.
The reason why the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and the other races were in such a huge commotion was completely caused by his appearance on the Beast Spirit Ranking and the second palace. Even if a Golden Immortal appeared, it would be useless.
He originally wanted to explain, but he suddenly understood that Hua Yun probably didn’t really want the seniors of the Immortal Dao to protect the human race. Instead, he wanted him to appear. In addition, he wanted to test if he was really a genius of the Beast Spirit and if he was related to the seniors of the Immortal Dao in the Star Sea.
Shen Ping even felt that the other party had the intention of killing him with a borrowed knife. After all, it was absolutely safe for him to stay in the City Lord Manor. However, once he left for the sea of stars, not to mention the distance, as long as his whereabouts were discovered by the Demon Race, they would definitely send the True Demon and Ancient Demons to kill him.
While Shen Ping’s mind was racing, Hua Yun and Hong Ling also secretly transmitted their voices.
“Great Elder, looking at Shen Ping’s attitude, I’m afraid we can’t rope him in. If he really wants to go against our Tai Hua Sect, with his special identity, I’m afraid it will be very difficult for our Tai Hua Sect to survive in the future!” “Hmph, you only know the consequences now? You attacked rashly without investigating the other party’s background. Now, you’ve suffered a backlash, right? I’ve said more than once not to look down on any cultivator, but you just didn’t listen.”
“Yes, Great Elder. I was wrong. What should I do now?”
“Since there’s no possibility of reconciliation, it can only be the enemy. What I just said…”
In fact, Shen Ping guessed that it was indeed Hua Yun’s goal. As a Tenth Tribulation Itinerant Immortal who had lived for tens of thousands of years, even if Hua Yun knew Shen Ping’s identity, he could not kneel down directly. After knowing that they had not reconciled, he had the intention to destroy Shen Ping.
However, he definitely couldn’t do it. He had to use the hands of the foreign races to make the Tai Hua Sect clear their relationship.
“Pavilion Master Shen, do you have any difficulties?” Seeing that Shen Ping did not respond immediately, Hua Yun asked.
“Senior Hua, you’ve misunderstood. It’s not that there’s anything difficult. It’s just that my cultivation level is not high. How can I have any contact with Senior Immortal Dao? The reason why our Treasure Pavilion can establish itself in the Western District is mainly because of my master. How about this? I’ll tell Master what Senior Hua said. I think Master should be able to contact Senior Immortal Dao from the Star Sea.”
After he finished speaking, Hong Ling couldn’t help but ask, “Are you talking about that Fellow Daoist Xu?”
“Yes. Most of my strength was taught by Master. All along, Master has been in charge of the resources of the True Treasure Pavilion.” Shen Ping smiled.
Hong Ling revealed a look of realization. No wonder the True Treasure Pavilion had so many precious resources. It turned out that they were all given by the Immortal Dao experts in the sea of stars. With the strength of the Immortal Dao experts, that bit of resources was indeed nothing. She hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Hua Yun, “Great Elder, that Fellow Daoist Xu had killed a Tribulation Transcendence expert back then. If not for the fact that I suspected that he had an immortal artifact on him, I wouldn’t have acted rashly. Now that I think about it, the other party should be Shen Ping’s guardian.”
Hua Yun nodded to himself. As a beast spirit genius of the human race, how could an Immortal Dao expert not arrange for a Dao Protector? However, his goal was to get Shen Ping to appear, not his master. “Pavilion Master Shen, can you arrange for me to meet your master?”
“Senior Hua, to be honest, my master is elusive. He’s in seclusion all year round, and it’s very difficult for me to see him. As long as he comes out of seclusion, I’ll immediately bring Senior Hua’s words over.”
Shen Ping pushed everything to his master. Hua Yun cursed under his breath for being cunning and stood up. “In that case, please hurry up, Pavilion Master Shen. The human forces in the Western District can’t wait too long..”
