Chapter 974: Black Swamp Port (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations
Shen Ping’s heart skipped a beat, but he still shook his head. “The exchange of Great Dao still depends on each other’s sincerity. There’s no need to force it.”
He sped up his narration of the Great Dao of the Fire. Immortal Venerable Luan couldn’t help but say, “Fellow Daoist Shen, I, I feel like I’m about to comprehend the essence of fire!”
He looked at the power of flames emitted by Immortal Venerable Luan’s immortal body. He knew that the other party was at a critical moment. Hence, he did his best.
…
A large amount of air masses attacked the ship from all directions. The number of natural objects such as the nearby mountains gradually increased. If it was an ordinary Great Dao supreme treasure, it would directly disintegrate after a long time under this impact.
Suddenly, a flash of light appeared in the distance. As the light got closer, Immortal Venerable Yao, who was standing on the deck, saw that it was a similar huge ship. Its hull was black, and there were many living beings of various appearances on the deck.
She hurriedly informed Shen Ping. Shen Ping and Immortal Venerable Luan, who had just ended, cleaned up a little and came to the deck.
“It should be a merchant ship or cargo ship heading to the Chaotic Peak Mountain. This kind of ship is called the Black Armored Ship. Although it’s an ordinary Great Dao treasure, the quality of its materials is produced in the Chaotic Peak Mountain, so it can withstand the airflow and impact of objects in the Realm Sea. Let me ask first,” he says, then Shen Ping condensed the power of the Great Dao and asked in a common language in the endless realms.
The languages of each realm are different. Although he could communicate directly through his true soul power, under special circumstances, such as areas where he could not use his true spirit, it was more difficult. Therefore, the Endless World had a common language.
A moment later, Shen Ping controlled the ship to approach the black-armored ship. Then, he paid the ship fee with 10 Origin Crystals and brought Immortal Venerable Yao and Immortal Venerable Luan to the black-armored ship.
It is more than half a year’s journey from this area to the Chaotic Peak Mountain.
Since they could encounter the black-armored merchant ship, they would definitely encounter some plundering bandits if they continued forward. Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, it was better to follow the merchant ship.
The owner of the merchant ship was an expert at the mid-stage of the Initial Dao Realm. He looked similar to the humans in the Immortal Dao Domain, but his skin was a little different. He smiled and said, “To be able to bring two living beings who are not even at the Initial Dao Realm to sail in this Realm Sea, your strength must be extraordinary!”
Shen Ping had already activated the Heavenly Star Armor. The aura on the surface was the same as that of a Venerable Sovereign. He had also used the top Great Dao just now, so he could board the ship. Otherwise, the other party would definitely shatter their ship and become a Realm Bandit. “Thank you. But I’m much worse than Daoist Brother Yun.”
They exchanged a few pleasantries. He brought Immortal Venerable Yao and Immortal Luan into the spacious cabin.
Staying in this cabin for half a year required 20 Genesis Crystals. Genesis Crystals were the common currency of the endless regions. They could buy everything they needed. Under normal circumstances, an Initial Dao Realm expert could only earn ten Genesis Crystals a year. Most of them were unwilling to live in the cabin.
Shen Ping had Genesis Crystals, which were given to him by Lord Yin. A total of 1000 pieces. It was barely enough for him to live and cultivate on the Chaotic Peak Mountain for a short time. Actually, if he sold some Great Dao treasures, he could obtain a lot of Genesis Crystals, but no one would do that.
“This cabin is so small.” Immortal Venerable Yao frowned. It was the same for Immortal Venerable Luan. They were Immortal Venerables, so they had never lived in such an environment.
“The Black Armored Ship has luxurious rooms, but they’re very expensive. It costs more than a hundred Genesis Crystals in half a year. We’re very poor now,” Shen Ping said helplessly.
Immortal Venerable Luan sighed, “Forget it, Sister Yao. We’ve left the realm. We have to adapt to the cultivation environment outside as soon as possible. Didn’t you see that there are more than a hundred Venerable Sovereigns on the deck? They’re squeezing there.”
Immortal Venerable Yao subconsciously looked in the direction of the deck and smiled bitterly, “Venerable Sovereigns are all peak experts in the Immortal Dao territory. Their status is high. I didn’t expect that they couldn’t even afford a room here.” She looked at Shen Ping and Immortal Venerable Luan. “There are many people here. Don’t communicate unscrupulously.”
Immortal Venerable Luan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, we don’t have that kind of hobby. Who knows if this room has been tampered with?”
“However, there are too many Venerable Sovereigns outside. There are only more than a hundred Venerable Sovereigns among the billions of races in our Immortal Dao territory. There are more than a hundred Venerable Sovereigns on the deck of this black-armored ship!” she couldn’t help but sigh.
Shen Ping smiled and said, “That’s normal. There are more than ten realms nearby. These realms are not like our Immortal Dao Realm. It’s very difficult to even leave. A realm can produce dozens of Venerable Sovereigns in a Dao era. After countless years of accumulation, it’s easy for more than a thousand Venerable Sovereigns to appear. It’s just that our Immortal Dao Domain resisted the foreign invasion in the ancient era and the Venerable Sovereigns are extinct, so there are fewer Venerable Sovereigns.”
“Other than the realm, the chances of a Venerable Sovereign being born in a gathering place like Chaotic Peak Mountain are much higher. If you have sufficient resources, you can also break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm.”
Immortal Venerable Yao and Immortal Luan could not help but look forward to it. Everyone wanted to become a Venerable Sovereign. This was the lifelong wish of every cultivator in every immortal dao territory.
The black-armored ship sailed on. The closer they got to Chaotic Peak Mountain, the more experts there were in the various domains. The number of encounters with Realm Bandits and other factions gradually increased. However, other than a few factions stopping them, no one attacked.
To be able to use a black-armored ship to sail in the Realm Sea, their background was not simple. Their methods were not something that ordinary mid-stage Initial Dao Realm cultivators could compare to. This was also the reason why the ship fee for the black-armored merchant ship was so high.
They’re almost at the port on Chaotic Peak Mountain. There was a knock on Shen Ping’s door. It was a man. He smiled and said, “Dao Brother, the ship is about to reach the Black Swamp Port. Looking at the three of you, this should be your first time going to Chaotic Peak Mountain. Do you need a guide?”
Shen Ping narrowed his eyes. “Fellow Daoist, how do you know that this is our first time going?” He mobilized a strand of top-grade Heaven and Earth Great Dao to release his aura on the Heavenly Star Armor.
The man’s heart sank. Those who could comprehend top-notch Heaven and Earth Great Dao were not to be trifled with. He immediately said enthusiastically, “Dao Brother, you don’t know, but anyone who has been to Chaotic Peak Mountain will be contaminated with a special aura. This aura is unique to Chaotic Peak Mountain. It is the same as the aura of every realm.
“As long as it’s near the Chaotic Peak Mountain area, it will appear.”
Shen Ping was enlightened. So that was the case. Indeed, every realm was unique. Although a special area like Chaotic Peak Mountain was not a realm, it could isolate the darkness of the Realm Sea like a realm.
The man continued, “I’ve been in Chaotic Peak Mountain for several Dao eras and am very familiar with it. I only need five Genesis Crystals.”
He had just finished speaking when an enchanting woman walked up from the side. “If you need a guide, I can also take on the role. And it’s cheaper. Three Genesis Crystals and that includes other services.”
Shen Ping quickly noticed that many Initial Dao Realm cultivators outside the cabin looked over faintly, as if they were looking at a fat sheep. However, there was still some fear in their eyes.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t need a guide at the moment.” He refused the offer.
The two Venerable Sovereigns in front of him were not disappointed. Instead, they said, “This is our communication Dao Jade. As long as it’s within the range of Chaotic Peak Mountain, you can send a message. If you need anything, you can send a message.”
When they left, Immortal Venerable Yao couldn’t help but say, “The competition here is really intense. They’re even fighting for a few Genesis Crystals.”
Immortal Venerable Luan echoed, “Yes, that’s a Venerable Sovereign!”
The two of them still didn’t know how difficult it was to obtain Genesis Crystals. After all, ever since they became Immortal Venerables, they had never worried about this aspect, and they rarely experienced the hardships of the lower levels. When they arrived at Chaotic Peak Mountain, Venerable Sovereigns were only slightly better than Immortal Venerables.
As the black-armored ship swayed, they arrived at Black Swamp Port on Chaotic Peak Mountain. They got off the boat. Shen Ping and the others immediately felt a heavy pressure. It was much stronger than the gravity of the earth in the immortal Dao territory, and the stability of space was much stronger.
“The sense of the Great Dao has become clear!”
Immortal Venerable Yao looked happy. Immortal Venerable Luan nodded repeatedly. In the Immortal Dao territory, comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was very vague. Only the true soul power of an immortal king could barely sense it. Here, even peerless immortals could sense the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
