Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 1041: Killing a Venerable Sovereign (2)

Editor: Henyee Translations

“Husband! Oh, Senior Yao is also here.” Wang Yun walked in and said with a smile, “Coincidentally, we used the rare materials of Chaotic Peak Mountain to make some delicious food. Come and try it.”

Immortal Venerable Yao hesitated and said, “This… isn’t too good.”

Wang Yun sized up Shen Ping and Immortal Venerable Yao, “It’s fine.”

They arrived at the rear hall and saw that his master, Lian Xuejin, was also here. A smile appeared on Shen Ping’s face. While they were eating, Immortal Venerable Yao also talked about how the Dao Yan Holy Peak would be arranged in the future. “Every Holy Peak is the core of our human race. Although we haven’t opened the mountain to preach the Dao yet, it’s time to accept the disciples that should be recruited. These are the most important.”

Lian Xuejin added, “Senior Yao is right. Shen Ping, you’re a sovereign now. It’s time to nurture disciples. The Holy Peak is really a little deserted.”

Shen Ping knew what the two women were talking about. Where there are people, there is life. This is especially so for the Venerable Sovereign’s Holy Peak. For example, the Ethereal Misty Peak where Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong was located occupied all the space that the palace at the foot of the mountain could occupy. This was not a weak faction in itself. When those core disciples broke through to the Immortal Venerable realm, their strength would become even stronger.

Compared to outsiders, the relationship between master and disciple was the most reliable. If he had a group of Immortal Venerable disciples, there was no need to discuss at all. As long as he revealed his thoughts, the disciples would directly go to the Northern Ice Immortal City.

“Master, you have experience in this aspect. I want to leave the matter of taking in disciples to you. There’s also the matter of the Holy Peak. Yun’er and the others can’t take care of it. I hope you can help.”

Lian Xuejin hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. Over the years, her cultivation had also increased very quickly. In terms of resources, she was not inferior to Shen Ping’s wife, concubine, and Dao companions at all. Especially during the tempering in the palace world, her level of comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was relatively ahead. She should help her disciple do something.

…

On the day the Holy Peak opened to preach the Dao, more than a hundred Venerable Sovereigns of the myriad races were gathered, as well as a large number of Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings. This kind of grand event was rare.

Looking at the white-robed man sitting cross-legged in the dojo, many Venerable Sovereigns communicated with each other.

“Shen Ping didn’t break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm. He only has the combat strength of a Venerable Sovereign.”

“That’s right. Looking at it today, his aura is indeed only at the Immortal Venerable level. It hasn’t completely transformed into a Dao Body.”

“Hmph, relying on a Great Dao treasure, you actually have the cheek to call yourself a Venerable Sovereign now.”

“No matter what, he has fought Di Xin before. He can be considered a Venerable Sovereign!”

“That’s right. He has such strength before breaking through to the Venerable Sovereign realm. Once he breaks through, how impressive will he be?!”

“By the way, have you heard? Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s injuries have completely recovered!”

Upon hearing this news, many Venerable Sovereigns’ expressions changed slightly. As they were inquiring, they saw Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong walking over. His aura was smooth and did not look like he was seriously injured at all.

“It’s really healed!”

“His injuries were caused by that foreign expert. We all saw it. It’s a great dao injury. There’s no medicine to treat such injuries. How can he recover?!”

“I heard it was cured by medicinal pills found in the outer realm!”

“What? The outer realm?”

“Impossible. The two Venerable Sovereigns of the human race have lost their way in the Realm Sea. Since ancient times, no one has been able to leave and return safely.”

While these Venerable Sovereigns were communicating, the sermon officially began. Shen Ping looked at the black mass of immortals and explained the simplest part of the True Book of Dao Origin. Then, he analyzed the ordinary Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. This made many immortal kings and Immortal Venerables feel enlightened. Even some Venerable Sovereigns felt that they had gained something.

The Venerable Sovereigns of the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and other races frowned. Just from this lecture, Shen Ping’s understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth could definitely be said to be incisive.

“Di Xin, it’s rumored that Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s injuries were cured by the healing Dao Pill that Shen Ping brought from the outer realm. Is this true?”

The Venerable Sovereigns of the Spirit Race, the Flame Race, and the Realm Clan looked at Di Xin. In terms of intelligence on the human race, the Devil Clan was the most well-informed.

Di Xin nodded. “It’s true. This is the most core information our Devil Clan has obtained.”

The Spirit Race’s Venerable Sovereign said, “In that case, does the human race really have a way to leave the Realm Sea?”

“That’s right. He should have obtained it from the Realm Sea Peak. The Realm Sea Peak is an opportunity left behind by a mighty figure from the outer realm. Shen Ping must have obtained some inheritance. Otherwise, how could he have grown so quickly? Ling Jue, Jie Yan, if we don’t join forces, I’m afraid there won’t be room for our races to survive and reproduce in this realm!”

The Realm Clan’s Venerable Sovereign revealed a hesitant expression. After the matter with the expert from the outer realm, it still had a good impression of the human race. However, in front of the interests of the race, such a good and evil thing was useless.

The Spirit Race’s Venerable Sovereign said, “Arrange for a Venerable Sovereign to expose this matter later. Hmph, I don’t believe that the other Venerable Sovereigns aren’t in danger. Since the human race has found a way to leave the realm, they should announce it to the public. How can we let them enjoy it alone?!

“The Realm Sea Peak is our realm to begin with. No matter who obtains the inheritance, they have to share!”

The Venerable Sovereigns of the Flame Race, Demon Race, and the others nodded.

So after the sermon, a Venerable Sovereign immediately stood up and said, “Venerable Dao Yan, you humans should have a way to leave the realm, right? Venerable Tian Hong was severely injured because of the matter of the outer realm expert. In the end, he has recovered. There are no Dao Pills in the realm to treat the injuries of the Great Dao. Those are only available in the outer realm!

“Being able to leave the realm is a huge matter in the entire Immortal Dao Domain. It concerns the future of our myriad races. Venerable Dao Yan, please hand over the navigation map to leave the realm!”

The other Venerable Sovereigns widened their eyes. Some even echoed, “Yes, hand it over!”

“Your human race is also a part of the immortal Dao territory!”

On the Holy Peak Plaza, many immortal kings and Immortal Venerables looked at each other.

Venerable Tian Hong’s expression was gloomy. His eyes swept across the human Immortal Venerables. This matter was extremely secretive. Only a small number of Immortal Venerables in the human race knew about it, but now, so many Venerable Sovereigns knew.

Clearly, the spy hidden within the human race had spread the news. Shen Ping’s expression was calm. He said indifferently, “Fellow Daoists, my master’s injuries were indeed treated by Dao Pills bought from outside the realm!”

Seeing Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan personally admit it, the entire Holy Peak went into an uproar. It was actually true. Many Venerable Sovereigns were excited.

Shen Ping continued, “There is indeed a navigation map, but this belongs to our human race. Why should I give it to you? If you want the navigation map, get it yourself.”

A Venerable Sovereign immediately said, “Dao Yan, you also obtained the navigation map from the Realm Sea Peak, right? That Realm Sea Peak belongs to our Immortal Dao territory, not your human race. Hand it over, unless your human race wants to compete with the myriad races—”

As soon as he finished speaking, the overwhelming sword light swept towards this Venerable Sovereign like a galaxy. The Venerable Sovereign’s expression changed drastically. He instantly burned his divine body. At the same time, an Eight Trigrams Mirror condensed in front of him and around him.

The sword light crashed into the Eight Trigrams Mirror like an ocean, causing a large number of ripples. Waves of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth stirred up violent fluctuations, and the entire space of the holy peak shattered inch by inch.

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong waved his hand and enveloped the entire square to prevent the Immortal Kings and Immortal Venerables from being affected.

The Eight Trigram Mirror shattered. This Venerable Sovereign’s divine body was instantly torn apart by thousands of sword lights. In the blink of an eye, only his true spirit was left. However, he was a Venerable Sovereign after all. Even his true soul power quickly used the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao to condense his Dao Body again. Moreover, two earthen yellow True Dragons gathered in front of him.

“Di Xin!” his shrill voice growled. The Dao Body condensed from true soul power revealed its true form. It was a creature that looked like an octopus that was thousands of feet tall.

The Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign raised his hand and pressed down. Thousands of fist imprints shattered the starry sword beams.

The Venerable Sovereign of the Spirit Race also attacked. He grabbed with his five fingers, and a resplendent green light gathered into vines. Together with the fist mark, they blocked the sword light.

However, they quickly felt the terror of the sword light. Be it the fist mark or the vines, they only struggled for a few breaths before shattering.

Then, it pierced through the earthen yellow True Dragon in front of the octopus with a destructive force. It destroyed the Venerable Sovereign’s divine body again. When its true spirit could no longer condense a divine body, the sword light instantly tore apart its true soul power.

A Venerable Sovereign standing in the Immortal Dao Domain had died just like that.
