Chapter 916: Getting In Trouble (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
The reason why Immortal Kings could become overlords was that they were not afraid of the destruction of their physical bodies. As long as his true soul power was still present, he could be considered an undying existence.
The most important thing to break through to the Immortal King Realm was true soul power, followed by the Immortal Essence Sage Body, also known as the Dao Embryo.
Dao runes circulated within, that was why they could communicate with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. As long as one was an immortal king, they would definitely be able to sense the great dao of heaven and earth. The difference was that some were clear, while others were blurry.
The most difficult thing for other peerless immortals to overcome was true soul force. However, Shen Ping was a Dao Embryo. This was because he had never really fought with other experts of the same level to temper himself. The opportunity of the Immortal Essence Sage Body was to fight non-stop. On the tip of the saber, the highly compressed Immortal Essence in his body would completely fuse with the rare resources and reach the level of roundness and purity.
Compressing high concentrations of immortal essence energy was a painstaking process. It would only take a hundred years, and he could easily exchange contribution points for the rest of the treasures from the treasury of the human race.
“Even peerless immortals don’t pose much of a challenge to me. Without using the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, only by purely using the Primordial Chaos Spear and fighting an immortal king can it have a tempering effect. There’s no hurry. During this time, I’ll slowly accept the bounty mission or join the army to fight at the scale of an army. I’ll feel the clash of those military formations at a close distance. When the strange beast immortal spiritual energy in my body transforms to strange beast immortal essence energy, I’ll find an opportunity to fight an immortal king!”
This was his training plan in the Northern Ice Immortal City. Everything was for the sake of breaking through to the Immortal King Realm.
As long as he reached the Immortal King Realm, with the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao he had comprehended, his combat strength would catch up to ordinary Venerable Sovereigns.
The misty rain was hazy. The manor was shrouded in a drizzle. Shen Ping walked out of the pavilion and strolled in the rain. He continued to think, “I wonder how the encirclement on Master’s side is going. I hope it succeeds!”
Before he left, he handed the exact location of the outer realm expert to Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong. He did not have to worry about the rest of the encirclement.
…
Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, 20 years had passed since he arrived at the Northern Ice Immortal City.
In these 20 years, the entire immortal city did not change much. There were still a large number of True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals who came here to seek their immortal encounter. After all, the speed of growth and cultivation resources were the fastest and best in the foreign race battlefield. Many ascenders’ first choice was the foreign race battlefield.
In the other immortal realms, it was very difficult to find an opportunity to improve, unless one was willing to spend a large amount of time slowly improving.
Of course, in the Northern Ice Immortal City, the ones who died the most were True Immortals and Heavenly Immortals.
His wife, concubines, and Dao companions felt the same way. In the past twenty years, from establishing a Heavenly Immortal elite team to developing until now, they had experienced many difficulties along the way. There were a few times when they had no choice but to use some trump cards to survive.
Wang Yun, Yu Yan, and Luo Qing sat casually in the private room by the window of a teahouse in the inner city. The other private rooms and the hall on the second floor were all members of their peace team. The team’s name was formed with the names of Shen Ping and the eldest son, Shen An. It also meant that they hoped that their team could grow up safely on the foreign race battlefield.
Thanks to their tyrannical combat strength, the Peace Squad quickly stood out among the large number of teams in the Immortal City. Naturally, it attracted many powerful members. However, they sought perfection. Other than strength, they also had a requirement for their character. Until now, they had only developed to 30 members.
The Immortal Qin who had introduced them back then had also joined in.
“Our team has gained a lot this time. Not only did we kill the five elite teams of the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, and other races, but we also obtained a lot of resources. That’s 250,000 merit points. This is a huge amount of merit points. After we drink tea and celebrate, we’ll distribute these merit points according to the size of our contribution!” Yu Yan smiled.
The other members said, “Thank you, Captain.”
As Wang Yun, Yu Yan, and Luo Qing were all women, most of the members of the Peace Squad were females. There were very few male members, and they were basically immortals with high morals. Some teams even called them the elite team of fairies.
It was said that many people in the team had a bounty on the Devil Clan and the Flame Race. Those on the bounty rankings were all experts. Even if he was on the list, it was still very praiseworthy.
“Yo, I was wondering why the teahouse was so lively today. The streets were filled with fragrance. So it’s the Peace Squad celebrating!”
A discordant voice sounded. A man in jade armor appeared at the staircase. This man had a suave appearance and emitted the aura of a high-grade immortal artifact from head to toe. Even the feather fan in his hand was an expensive immortal artifact.
Immortal Qin and the other members sitting beside Wang Yun and Yu Yan frowned. It’s the Ghostfire team. One of them, a fairy named Fu Chengxue, had a grudge with the captain of the Ghostfire Team. It could be considered a love affair. She hated the captain of the Ghostfire Team and left. In the end, she joined the peace team.
Although Fu Chengxue was at the sixth level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, her combat strength was close to that of a Golden Immortal. Other than Shen Ping’s wife and Dao companions, she was the strongest in the Peace team.
“Huo Yao, the grudge between you and me should not involve the Peace Squad.”
The jade-armored young man, who was the captain of the Ghostfire Team, laughed loudly. “Fu Chengxue, aren’t you overestimating yourself? I came this time firstly because it was a coincidence, and secondly because I admire the elegance of the many fairies in the Peace Squad. It’s not because of you. Hmph, you’re just a toy I used to play with.”
Fu Chengxue was not angered by these words. Instead, she said calmly, “I hope so.”
Yu Yan said lightly, “Fellow Daoist Huo Yao, we have reserved the second floor of the teahouse. If there’s nothing else, please go somewhere else to drink tea.”
The Ghostfire captain smiled. “You must be the captain of the Peace Squad. It’s like this. In a few days, my Ghostfire Squad will be preparing to head to the Fire Silk River Region. I want to invite your Peace Squad to go with me. What do you think?”
There were many river basins in the foreign races’ battlefields. A large number of teams were fighting in each river basin. The Fire Silk River basin was mainly populated by teams at the Golden Immortal level. There were even Mystic Immortals mixed in. Those who dared to go over were Golden Immortal teams.
No one dared to go to a Heavenly Immortal team like the Peace Team.
Although Wang Yun and Yu Yan were very strong, they would not go there for the time being, so they rejected him on the spot. The young man did not force them. He smiled and turned to leave.
Fu Chengxue said, “Captain, you have to be careful. Huo Yao’s character is inferior. He’s a complete villain. Back then, I couldn’t stand his actions, so I left. If there’s really a conflict, I’ll leave the team.”
She knew Huo Yao very well. She knew that the other party must be looking for trouble with the Peace Squad because of him. Otherwise, they would not have invited them to the Fire Silk River Basin.
Yu Yan smiled and said, “Chengxue, don’t worry. He’s just a clown.”
Immortal Qin could not help but say, “Captain, Huo Yao is only at the eighth level of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, but his team is filled with immortals above the third level of the Golden Immortal Realm. They’re basically his guards. It’s said that his background is the junior of a commander of an army. He can’t be underestimated.”
Qiu Ying was surprised. “He has such a powerful background?”
To be able to become a commander in the army, he had to be at least a peerless immortal.
“I only heard about it.”
Fu Chengxue hesitated for a moment before saying, “It’s true. He’s a descendant of the Black Horn Legion’s commander. I’m sorry to have troubled you.”
The other members’ expressions changed slightly. They were all Heavenly Immortals. They might be able to deal with Golden Immortals, but if a commander casually said a word, they would probably be shattered.
Wang Yun glanced at them and said, “If anyone wants to leave, you can do it now. My Peace Squad will still give you the contribution points we promised.”
No one left.
Qin Zhen shook his head. “Captain, there’s no need for you to do this. Since we’ve joined the team, we’ll naturally share honor and disgrace. How can we retreat because of some trouble? Moreover, if we retreat today, inner demons would be born in the future and it’ll be difficult to improve. The captain of Ghostfire only has a strong background. They won’t dare to do anything overboard in the city. Once we leave the city, everything will still rely on tricks.”
The other members nodded.
