Chapter 422: Alliance (1)

Shen Ping and his master, Lian Xuejin, did not know how powerful the Nine Continents Tower was. Even if they left the Black Mist Direlands without any activation, they could still hide the heavenly secrets of the living beings in the surrounding area. However, even if he knew, he did not feel that everything would be fine. Divination was only the most direct way for the upper echelons of the Immortal Dao of the various races to find his exact location, but it was not the only way.
The environment of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness was special, but if they really wanted to find Shen Ping, the various races definitely had other methods. At the very least, they would search every inch of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness.
After all, the appearance of the Myriad Spirit Ranking finally let the human race to decline. How could the other races give the human race a chance to rise again? They could not do anything to those immortal cultivators of the human race, but as long as they found a Beast-patterned Golden Core like Shen Ping, they could easily eliminate him as easily as stepping on an ant.
Shen Ping naturally knew this logic. Therefore, he would not place his hopes on the Immortal Dao experts or external objects of the human race. If he wanted to seek a way out, there was only one way. Become stronger!
The Gate of the Strange Beast.
On the second floor of the underground palace, in a dark environment.
Looking at the curve of the purple and green soft armor under the veil in front of him, Shen Ping took out five complete Talisman Beast Diagrams and handed them over. In the past ten years, other than studying the Puppet Beast Scripture, he would come to the underground palace for a period of time when he had the time. As he searched for strange stones, he would trade with the second-grade Beast Spirit genius.
In reality, compared to searching for strange stones, trading with the Talisman Beast Diagram was the most profitable.
Smelling the special fragrance on Yin Ting’s body, his eyes inadvertently swept across the mud marks covered by the purple and green soft armor. He could not help but recall the pale tiger roar covered by Pei Huoyu’s light armor in his mind. The unknown door to the heart was always desirable.
Yin Ting’s cold brows curved slightly. As a perfected Nascent Soul cultivator, how could she not sense Shen Ping’s burning gaze? After interacting with him for all these years, she more or less understood this human genius.
She did not dare to say anything else. But she knew that he was a playboy. However, in the Winged Race, it was very normal for them to pursue the Great Dao. In order to continue their bloodline and descendants, as long as they had the slightest good impression of them, they could directly engage in the most primitive communication. It was a pity that the other party was a human and a Beast Spirit genius who was in danger.
Therefore, even though she had a good impression of him, Yin Ting would not let her innocence be tainted by the aura of the human race.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, we’ve been working together for a long time. Can the price of the Talisman Beast Diagram be lowered? You know that although this talisman is powerful, it’s a one-time consumable item. If it can be lowered, I can buy twice as much each time and introduce you to other fellow Daoists!” Yin Ting said softly.
Shen Ping shook his head and did not let go at all. “Fellow Daoist Yin, it’s not easy to make the Talisman Beast Diagram. It consumes a lot of my energy. It has engraved the power of a strange beast on the talisman. Besides, Fellow Daoist Yin has relied on the Talisman Beast Diagram to kill many other Beast Spirit geniuses over the years. I’m afraid you’ve gained a lot!”
Yin Ting didn’t deny it. She was a second-grade Beast Spirit genius to begin with. In the second level of the underground palace, she was considered a top expert at the Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation realm. Unless there was a huge gap between Beast Spirit geniuses, it was still relatively difficult to kill opponents of the same level. However, relying on the Talisman Beast Diagram she had traded, she had killed many powerful opponents in succession. Not only did she obtain a lot of strange stones, but she also obtained some low-grade Beast Spirit Treasures. Relying on these low-grade Beast Spirit Treasures, she also had a medium-grade Beast Spirit Treasure, and it was a defensive one.
It could be said that she was the one who gained the most from trading with Shen Ping.
“The Heaven Ascension Hall on the second level will open in ten years. Fellow Daoist Shen, do you plan to enter too?” Yin Ting changed the topic. The entrance to the Heaven Ascension Hall would randomly appear, but as long as one was not weak or had the mark of a strange beast, they could basically touch it. Under normal circumstances, no one could resist it, but if they activated the mark of a strange beast, they could resist it.
This was also one of the uses of the strange beast mark.
Shen Ping nodded. “The Heaven Ascension Hall is the greatest opportunity in the underground palace. How can I miss it?”
Yin Ting glanced at Shen Ping. “The Heaven Ascension Hall opens once every hundred years. You’ve just arrived at the underground palace, so there’s no hurry to enter. It won’t be too late to enter after you increase your strength.” At this point, she lowered her voice and reminded, “I heard that the last time the Heaven Ascension Hall opened, no one came out alive.”
The Heaven Ascension Hall was an opportunity, but the danger accompanying it was also huge. The beast spirit geniuses of the various races had high statuses. The chances of them dying outside were very low. The upper echelons of the various races would do their best to protect them, but the mortality rate in the Heaven Ascension Hall was extremely terrifying.
Shen Ping could not help but ask, “Fellow Daoist Yin, I wonder how dangerous the Heaven Ascension Hall on the second level is?”
“The Stairway to Heaven is the first stage, and the puppet in the metal passageway is the second stage. These two stages are the most basic. Almost every time the Heaven Ascension Hall opens, there will be one. As for the Black Water River in the third stage, it’s different. Sometimes, there will be one, and the danger is different.”
Yin Ting told him everything she knew in detail. The number of cultivators who survived in the Heaven Ascension Hall every time was different. However, if they wanted to obtain the only high-level beast spirit treasure, they had to be the strongest. In fact, most cultivators would leave directly if they knew that they could not defeat the other party. After all, passing the Heaven Ascension Hall was their greatest gain.
“With the treasures and methods to predict danger, the chances of survival are the highest.. Apart from that, luck is also very important!”
