Gray Stone City.
Shen Ping, who had returned, tried to consume the beast blood’s essence again. Although he could clearly sense the fluctuation now, it was very difficult for him to come into contact with it. Moreover, the sensing time was very short. If he wanted to comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth before breaking through to the True Immortal realm, the difficulty would be extremely high even if the Realm Sea Peak had resources in the future. If he could continue to consume the beast blood’s essence, it would undoubtedly allow him to come into contact with it faster.
Unfortunately, he still failed.
He frowned. The difficulty of the other prodigies consuming the essence of beast blood mainly lay in the purity of their spiritual sea and strange beast bloodline. However, he had the talent of the four strange beasts, and the purity of his bloodline far exceeded the prodigies of the various races. The only restriction was his spiritual sea.
However, even if he broke through, it was useless. After all, the improvement of his spiritual sea was already close to the limit. Unless he broke through the True Immortal Realm, he could continue to improve his spiritual sea.
“The reason for failure is that I can’t withstand the pressure of the strange beast’s consciousness. If I want to withstand it, it has to do with my spiritual sea and willpower. Then, I have to think of a way to increase my willpower and see if I can continue to consume it.”
After consuming twenty beast blood’s essences, Shen Ping already vaguely understood that the difficulty of beast blood’s essences was that they contained the willpower and consciousness of strange beasts. The higher the purity of the bloodline, the lower the willpower and consciousness.
Therefore, he speculated that willpower might be the key. He stood up and left the quiet room. On the way to the pavilion by the lake, he opened the virtual interface and casually glanced at it. He had completely comprehend the level of beast blood and his concept was also at the eighth level. If he wanted to continue increasing the level of this beast scripture, even if he had the strange beast comprehension he obtained every day, it would take a long time.
Therefore, there was not much meaning in seclusion and cultivation after digesting the beast blood’s essence. This was because as long as he continued to take one, it might be equivalent to the progress of hundreds of years of bitter cultivation.
Of course, his usual persistence in comprehending was indispensable. He could not ignore every day of cultivation, but he would not cultivate in seclusion again.
He came to the pavilion by the lake. Yue Lingluo was already sitting at the stone table. She poured a cup of spiritual tea for Shen Ping and asked, “What’s the matter, husband?”
“Lingluo, is there any place in the western region of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness that can sharpen one’s willpower?”
“Sharpen one’s willpower?” Yue Lingluo was stunned. To cultivators, willpower wasn’t very useful. No matter how strong willpower was, it couldn’t compare to a powerful magic treasure or powerful divine sense. Most cultivators focused on cultivation, magic treasures, and various supplementary methods to increase their strength. Basically, no one trained their willpower. Only some cultivators who cultivated illusion techniques would train in this aspect.
However, since it was her husband who asked, she naturally took it seriously. “I haven’t heard of it for the time being. Wait a moment. I’ll ask the Body Integration guest elders in the pavilion. They have cultivated for a long time and might know.”
Shen Ping nodded and picked up the spiritual tea to drink.
After about ten minutes, Yue Lingluo opened her eyes. “There’s one, but that Body Integration guest elder isn’t sure. When he was in the early years, he went to the Black Mist Direlands and encountered a strange place. The cultivators and living beings there can generally resist illusions. He was curious and investigated it. Then, he entered the edge of the Black Mist Direlands to search for the source, but he didn’t find it. Later on, he didn’t pay attention to this matter. After all these years, he’s not sure that place still exists.”
Shen Ping’s eyes lit up. “What’s the exact location?”
“It’s the quarry beach at the edge of the Black Mist Direlands.” Yue Lingluo took out a jade slip map and pointed out the location to Shen Ping. “You want to go? The Black Mist Direlands is not an ordinary place. It’s said that there are many spatial turbulences inside. Furthermore, there are baleful spirits. It’s very easy to get lost. Once you fall in, even Itinerant Immortals might not be able to come out safely.”
Shen Ping smiled and said, “I’ll be careful.”
Yue Lingluo did not say anything else. Instead, she asked, “Husband, do you plan to go alone or bring any sister along?”
Shen Ping pondered and said, “I’ll bring Yingyue along. She’s good at illusions.”
Yue Lingluo revealed a resentful gaze, “I’m also good at it.”
“Is that so? Then I want to try it now.”
Their eyes intertwined. Soon, the lake rolled.
The quarry beach was located at the edge of the Black Mist Direlands, and there was only one marketplace nearby. It was very far from the nearest cultivation city. Although this city was under the jurisdiction of the True Treasure Pavilion, it had only established a branch in the city. The marketplace had not been established. The main reason was that this marketplace was too close to the Black Mist Direlands. There were many spatial cracks in the middle. Not only would it be easy to fall into them, but they might also be attacked by cultivators from the Demon Race.
It was very difficult for caravans to transport them along the way. Therefore, Jing Yan, who was in charge of opening the branch, did not choose to build it at the quarry beach.
However, there were many cultivators from various races who entered and left the quarry beach. Most of them risked their lives to obtain the Silver Patterned Malevolent Wood. This material could be used to forge magic treasures or refine talismans. It could greatly resist illusions.
The flying ships built by some merchant groups in the Sword Seal City and Gray Stone City that could resist illusions had mixed in many Silver Patterned Malevolent Wood.
Shen Ping first brought Ying Yue to the nearest city on the merchant ship of the True Treasure Pavilion. Then, he found a merchant group in the city and followed them to the quarry beach.
“Let’s get this straight. The journey to the quarry beach is very dangerous. If anyone falls into a spatial rift or is attacked by the Demon Race along the way, they can only pray for themselves. Don’t blame others for not helping..”
