Chapter 700: Breaking Through to the Star Palace and Taking a Fancy (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Thunder rumbled. The huge lightning saber in the world slashed down like Pangu’s Heaven-Opening Axe. The late-stage Star Realm demons, who had been fearless, were all shocked. Even the Demon Venerables of the Star Palace Realm couldn’t achieve such a level of power.
Screech!!
One of the fire phoenixes refused to believe it and charged towards the lightning saber. As a result, its huge body, which was more than 100 feet tall, was cut into two. The violent power of lightning and the might of the world stirred up cracks on its body.
Shen Ping raised his hand and grabbed it. His devour talent absorbed it crazily. In just a few breaths, he refined it into a Star-rank Demon King Blood Bead. The other four demon kings were terrified when they saw this. Where did this human come from? He was too terrifying.
Run!
They turned around and fled without hesitation. Unfortunately, they could not escape for the time being under the siege of the wood-element Star Palace realm.
An hour later, these demon kings had all turned into pure blood beads, and there was not a single Star Rank cultivator left. Only then did Shen Ping leisurely arrive at the mineral vein area. “It’s actually Stargold Stone. No wonder it can attract so many demon kings.”
Stargold Stone was a special mineral vein that could absorb earth veins and star power. It was the essence of the earth and the stars in the sky. In fact, it was similar to the pure Blood Bead that he had refined with his Devour talent.
However, there were impurities inside, so he had to use the power of his bloodline to refine it before he could absorb it.
In the Great Xia Dynasty, Stargold Stones were extremely attractive to Star Realm experts. After all, it was too slow to absorb star power every night. If they had Stargold Stones, their speed would increase.
However, this kind of mineral vein was relatively rare. He did not expect it to exist in Mount Ba. He checked. The ore vein wasn’t very big. It could only be considered a small ore vein. However, the total value of this wealth was extremely shocking. It was equivalent to 20% of the annual tax revenue of the Great Xia Dynasty.
“I wonder if the Devour talent can easily refine it.” Shen Ping tried to activate his talent. The pieces of Stargold Stone shattered and turned into bloodline and star power. Compared to refining demons, the Stargold Stone had no attributes. It could be converted into any attribute after entering the body. This was stronger than the Blood Bead.
Since it could be absorbed, he stayed here for half a month without hesitation and devoured and refined all the Stargold Stones. Not only did his Star Palace Realm cultivation stabilize, but he also broke through to the second level of the Star Palace Realm, saving him nearly a hundred years of bitter cultivation.
Next, he walked around all the mountains in Mount Ba and completely understood the situation in Mount Ba. The Demon King was the limit of the demons here, and the Stargold Stone was also the highest heavenly treasure.
After Shen Ping killed five demon kings, there were only three demon kings left in Mount Ba. In the end, they were refined into blood beads by him, causing the huge Mount Ba to not have a single demon king. Of course, as time passed, the mountain range would definitely be nurtured. Even the Stargold Mine that he had absorbed would gradually condense.
On the way back to Jizhou City,
He was deep in thought.
There were a total of seven levels in the Star Palace Realm. Every level required a massive amount of bloodline and star power. A small Stargold Mine only allowed him to increase his cultivation by one level. Even if there were seven Demon King’s Blood Beads, it might not be able to increase his cultivation.
” I wonder where those Demon Venerables of the Star Palace Realm are hiding.”
There were no records of this in the Book Depository.
Presumably, only some aristocratic families with a thousand years of foundation would know some clues.
However, Shen Ping was not in a hurry. He had gained a lot this time and had improved a lot. Although there were no side effects after his talent devoured and refined, he still needed to settle down a little.
In the mansion, Lian Nishang was wearing a slim-fitting moon-white dress. The curve of her chest was perfectly arched. She grabbed Shen Ping’s arm and kept shaking it. “Brother Shen, where did you go? You didn’t even bring Nishang along. Hmph, are you tired of Nishang?”
As expected, once a relationship took that step, a girl would speak without restraint.
Shen Ping said helplessly, “I went to the depths of Mount Ba. It’s very dangerous there. There are a lot of Star Realm demons and demon kings. If you go, your small body won’t even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth.”
Lian Nishang’s eyes lit up. “There are so many demons. I’m not afraid. When I break through to the Star Rank, I must go to Mount Ba and kill all these demons.” She whimpered, “Jizhou City is too boring. There are no missions. Every day, it’s either sitting around or sitting around.”
This girl originally thought that there were many demons in the continent’s capital, but after coming here, she realized how powerful the internal competition was. As soon as the demon hunting mission was issued, lieutenants and generals snatched it away. After all, the mission was equivalent to money and resources.
There were so many geniuses in the Continent’s Capital. Naturally, they would fight for it. As a result, Lian Nishang and Ling Yu’er had been staying in the city for the past two to three months.
“Brother Shen, I’m almost moldy from staying here. I don’t care. You have to bring me to kill demons.”
Listening to her coquettish tone, Shen Ping sniffed Lian Nishang’s body. “There’s no moldy smell. I can only smell the fragrance of milk.”
Lian Nishang blushed. “Brother Shen, you’re bad.” He wrapped his arms around her waist. ” Come, let me check if it’s swollen again.”
After a while, the sound of Lian Nishang crying could be heard in the bedroom. The steamed buns were stained with white cream.
When they cuddled after sex, Lian Nishang leaned against Shen Ping’s chest and talked about Ling Yu’er. This girl had been doing very well recently. With Shen Ping’s reputation as a Star-rank guardian, she had worked hard in the Demon Suppression Division to buy and sell some demon materials.
“By the way, Brother Shen, when you went to Mount Ba, the Demon Suppression Division’s Guardian Nangong sent you an invitation. He said that he wanted to invite you to participate in the celebration banquet of the genius of the Nangong Family breaking through to the Star Rank.”
Shen Ping raised his eyebrows. “When?”
“I think it’s in three days.”
“I have nothing to do anyway. Nishang, come with me when the time comes.”
“Okay, Brother Shen.”
“Call Yu’er too.”
“Hmph, you always thought about her. That girl is smart. Besides, she’s not as good as me. She doesn’t even have big breasts.”
“Everyone has their own merits.”
“Don’t mention her.”
“Alright, alright, alright. Come, turn around and let me think about you.”
The Nangong Family’s celebration banquet was quite grand. On this day, the various factions in the continent’s capital all rushed over. Even the capital sent representatives to send gifts to celebrate. After all, as long as a sixteen-year- old Star Rank cultivator did not die, he would definitely become a National Guardian at the Star Palace level in the future.
When Shen Ping brought Lian Nishang and Ling Yu’er over, the Nangong family’s old ancestor personally welcomed them and gave them the highest treatment.
In comparison, Shen Ping was even more talented than Nangong Yao. He had long broken through to the Star Rank, so the others present also praised him. As the number of guests increased, the residence became extremely lively.
Some of the geniuses of the Demon Suppression Division were also invited. Shen Ping took the opportunity to use his Purple Eye Divine Pupils to check. Unfortunately, no special physiques appeared. Instead, he discovered a few geniuses who were suspected to be Beast Spirits.
He was not surprised at all. The entire Jizhou City was huge, so it was normal for Beast Spirits to appear.
When the prodigy of the Nangong Family, Nangong Yao, walked out, he couldn’t help but be stunned. Nangong Yao’s face was cold and graceful, and she actually had the temperament of Immortal Venerable Yao.
This was not a coincidence. Needless to say, Nangong Yao was definitely the reincarnation of Immortal Venerable Yao.
“Come, Yao’er, this is Guardian Shen from the Demon Suppression Division. He’s the same age as you and is a genius of the current generation. The two of you have to get to know each other well.” The Nangong Family’s ancestor smiled.
The representatives of the other aristocratic families smiled, but they were disdainful in their hearts. How could they not know what Nangong was planning? He was clearly trying to matchmake the two of them. If they succeeded, the Nangong family would have two prodigies who could grow to the National Guardian level in the future. They would definitely crush the other aristocratic families.
“Greetings, Lord Shen.” Nangong Yao said softly.
Shen Ping smiled and said, “Miss Yao, you don’t have to be so polite. We’re of the same generation. I’m slightly older than you. Just call me Brother Shen.”
The representatives of the other aristocratic families were stunned. When Old Ancestor Nangong came back to his senses, he was grinning from ear to ear. He had chosen the right person.
