Desolate Mountain Ancient Temple (1)

He looked at Yin Ting. Yin Ting nodded with a smile. Only then did Shen Ping relax. Yin Ting had stepped into the scaled level more than 500 years ago. Although she was at the Tribulation Transcendence realm, her overall combat strength was comparable to a Heavenly Immortal. With her around, she could deal with any situation.

They chatted for a while more, and Wang Yun talked about the situation of the descendants of the Shen family’s bloodline in recent years. The eldest son, Shen An, had been staying in the eastern district of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness for the past few hundred years. He was in charge of the operation and management of the True Treasure Pavilion there. The eldest daughter, the second daughter, and the other first and second generation descendants had long gone to other cultivation worlds to develop the True Treasure Pavilion. However, 200 years ago, all the descendants of the bloodline came to Gray Stone City.

“An’er has already broken through to the Mahayana Realm. The others are also at the Body Integration realm. The first and second generation descendants of my Shen family’s bloodline have finally grown up.”

Shen Ping nodded. This cultivation speed was not bad. After all, with the enhancement of the cultivation time of the World Pearl, if it had not grown, it would really be a waste of so many resources. “Where are Tiantai and Qinglian?” He asked.

”Tiantai has already reached the Body Integration Realm, and Qinglian just broke through to the Void Refinement Realm last year. However, all these years, the potential of the juniors born in the clan is relatively ordinary. Even if they use resources, they can at most reach the Void Refinement Realm. Whether they can break through to the Body Integration Realm depends on their own luck.” Wang Yun sighed.

Although the Shen family was the strongest in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness and had a huge force like the True Treasure Pavilion, they would not provide unlimited resources for the nurturing of the younger generation. Thousands of years ago, the Shen family had already formulated a nurturing plan. Only the talented or hard working younger generation would receive a large amount of resources.

Shen Ping fell silent. A family clan needed tens of thousands of years to produce geniuses, and the Shen family had developed for more than 4,000 years. Although their heritage could not compare to those Itinerant Immortal and Tribulation Transcendence families, they were considered a medium-sized family clan in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness. However, no true genius had been born. Shen Tiantai could only be considered half a genius.

“The children and grandchildren have their own blessings. The first and second generation have gradually grown up. In the future, other than resources like the World Pearl, Yun’er, Yan’er, you don’t have to care about anything else. Let An’er and the others handle it. Your own cultivation is the most important.” Wang Yun, Yu Yan, and the other women nodded. They knew that their husband had long reached the level where he could ascend. The reason why he did not ascend was because he was waiting for them to break through the Tribulation Transcendence and ascend together.

In the next few months, he accompanied his wife, concubine, and Dao companions well. It was not until Wang Yun, Pei Huoyu, and the others left the City Lord Manor and began to travel that he came to the quiet room and entered the Strange Beast Gate.

However, before going to the Realm Sea Peak palace, Shen Ping chatted with his master, Lian Xuejin, about cultivation through the dazzling crystal.

After more than a thousand years, Lian Xuejin was no longer as afraid to face her disciple as before. Although those memories had already seeped into her bones, the emotions they affected were not as strong as before.

On the palace complex of Realm Sea Peak that stretched endlessly, Shen Ping saw the black-robed artifact spirit.

The Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was extremely important. However, even with the blood of a perfect strange beast, comprehending one would require tens of thousands of years of accumulation. Therefore, if he wanted to quickly master it, entering the palace world was undoubtedly the fastest way.

Of course, he had another way. That was to have sex with the female cultivators who grasped the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and increased it through the virtual interface. However, those who could comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth were basically in the Immortal King realm. Even if he was the strongest prodigy of the human race, it was impossible for him to obtain the body of an Immortal King.

“Shen Ping, because the palace world hasn’t appeared yet, and because you don’t have a bracelet, after you reincarnate, not only will your true spirit be sealed, you won’t have the memories inside when you leave in the future.

“Apart from that, the time flow in the palace world is ten to one compared to the outside world. In three hundred years, the palace world will appear. At that time, the other Beast Spirits will also reincarnate and enter. You have an advantage of 3,000 years compared to them. I hope you can gain something.” The black-robed artifact spirit smiled.

Shen Ping nodded and asked, “Senior, I wonder if reincarnation can descend as an adult?”

“You have the green bracelet, so of course you can. Before you enter, just chant the year bones of the reincarnated soul in your heart. However, I have to remind you that this kind of descent is very risky.”

Shen Ping bowed and said, “Thank you for your reminder, Senior.”

After saying that, he activated the green bracelet. His body appeared in the center of a huge palace. As he chanted reincarnation in his heart, a wisp of his True Spirit floated out of his body and entered the five-colored vortex in the palace in the blink of an eye.

His vision had just recovered a little when a bone chilling cold wind surged into his body from all directions. Shen Ping subconsciously curled up his body and opened his eyes to look around.

In the dilapidated ancient temple, half of the roof beams had collapsed, and the wooden pillars were smashed on the shoulders of the statue. The surroundings were chaotic and covered in spiderwebs. The ground was damp, and poisonous insects were running around. Cold wind blew in from the windows and the collapsed hole above.

And through the window, the rain was falling. He shook his head. The remnant memories of this body surged in like a tide, but his powerful true spirit instantly finished absorbing and digesting them.

Shen Yu was from Yao County in the Chen Kingdom’s Leshan Prefecture. At the age of nineteen, he obtained a scholarly title. Yet two years later, he resolutely left his hometown and ran around the various famous mountains and rivers in the Chen Kingdom. He wanted to visit the immortal mountains and seek Dao and immortality. Unfortunately, he had walked through the mountains for five to six years and did not encounter an immortal encounter. Now, he was poor and starved to death in this ancient temple in a barren mountain.

The reason why he was so persistent was that in the year of the Elementary Scholar examination, he had encountered a fox demon and acted out the story of a scholar and a fox demon.

“Interesting. This world is actually a chaotic world where immortals, demons, and ghosts coexist. I wonder if its cultivation system is the same as outside?” He closed his eyes. After calming down, he used his powerful true spirit to carefully sense the world. Soon, he sensed the spiritual energy fluctuation in the air. However, when Shen Ping was about to circulate according to the cultivation technique he had previously cultivated, he could not absorb the spiritual energy of the world into his body no matter what.

“Looks like the system is different.”

He shook his head, and changed another method. His true spirit tried to sense the fluctuations of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, but there was no movement. It had to be known that although he was only the reincarnation of a wisp of true spirit, many comprehensions, experience, and memories of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth existed. Even if he could not comprehend and mobilize the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, he could rely on his true spirit to sense a trace of fluctuation.

Then, Shen Ping continued to try various methods, but none of them could be cultivated. Even the powerful talismans he relied on lost their effect. Even strange beasts were useless. This made him frown. Finally, he used the training method to strengthen his physique.

Gulp.

After training and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for a while, his hungry stomach let out a disappointing cry. When he walked to the entrance of the ancient temple, he revealed a helpless expression. There were no villages or shops in front of this desolate mountain. Where could he get food? However, if he did not replenish some food, he could not maintain his body by relying on training methods.

“Forget it, let’s start a fire first. I can’t freeze to death again.”

He suppressed this thought. He walked out of the ancient temple and found some tree bark that had yet to be drenched in the nearby forest. There was also some cotton wool and other things. He returned to the ancient temple to start a fire.

As the flames jumped up, Shen Ping’s cold body gradually warmed up. Late at night, the rain outside stopped, but the darkness swallowed the ancient temple like a huge beast. Only the dancing flame brought some light.

Looking at the slightly ferocious statue, he clicked his tongue in wonder. The original host was also bold. He actually dared to seek the mountains alone and even stayed in such an ancient temple in a desolate mountain. Wasn’t he afraid of being found by demons and ghosts? Perhaps the original host was looking forward to such an encounter.

“Oh, there is an ancient temple here.”

Suddenly, a soft female voice sounded outside the ancient temple. Immediately after, two girls in raincoats appeared.

Seeing Shen Ping, who was dressed like a scholar, one of the ladies hurriedly bowed and said timidly, “Sorry to disturb you, Young Master. I brought my maid to this temple to avoid the war. I hope you don’t mind.”

Shen Ping casually glanced at the two girls. “This temple is an ownerless place. You two girls don’t have to be polite..”
