Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 976: Terror (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations

Shen Ping did not plan to accumulate Genesis Crystals slowly like Immortal Venerable Yao and Immortal Venerable Luan. He first used the remaining Genesis Crystals to buy Dao Body Pills and recover 70% of the puppet’s lost Dao Body. This way, when he activated it with all his might, he could erupt with the strength of the late-stage Initial Dao realm.

…

The reason why Black Swamp Market Town could prosper was not only because there was a natural port here, but also because there was a Black Swamp Cliff nearby. Black Swamp Cliff was close to the Realm Sea and was impacted by the energy of the Realm Sea all year round, gradually forming a special area. In this area, there would be a Dao surge similar to a tide.

And every time the Dao surge flows, it would condense into pure Dao rune beads.

This Dao rune bead was not only the main ingredient for refining Dao Pills, but it could also be directly absorbed by others to speed up their comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

That’s why Black Swamp Market Town was so lively. Almost every ten days, there would be specialized pearl divers who would collect Dao rune beads and sell them to earn a lot of Genesis Crystals. Over time, they had long formed an industry.

However, the Black Swamp Cliff was used by the Black Swamp Chamber of Commerce here. If he wanted to collect it, he had to pay a fee first.

Shen Ping could only pay obediently.

It’s harvest day. He and more than a hundred Venerable Sovereigns headed to the Black Swamp Cliff. When they arrived at Black Swamp Cliff, there were already more than a thousand living beings from different realms and Chaotic Peak Mountain gathered here. Among them were Venerable Sovereigns and Immortal Venerables.

However, there were no mid-stage Initial Dao cultivators. When they reached the mid-stage Initial Dao Stage, they could easily earn a lot of Genesis Crystals by relying on a Chamber of Commerce. There was no need for them to do such hard work.

Shen Ping had chosen this not for the Dao rune beads, but for the plundered Realm Bandits. These guys were fat sheep.

“Sigh, I didn’t expect that I would one day walk the path of entrapment!” Standing in the middle of the crowd, he felt like he had fallen. He had no choice. It’s not a shame to run around for a living.

“Every Dao Surge only produces less than 20 Dao rune beads. Hmph, with so many competitions, most of them are destined to only make money for the Black Swamp Chamber of Commerce!” a Venerable Sovereign said indignantly.

The Black Swamp Chamber of Commerce was the largest force here. They had a black-armored ship and had a connection with the Chaotic Peak Mountain. It was said that the Chamber of Commerce had a late-stage Initial Dao Realm cultivator guarding it. In the dozen or so worlds nearby, a late-stage Initial Dao Realm cultivator was basically the peak combat power.

Therefore, no matter how dissatisfied the Venerable Sovereign was, he could only grit his teeth and endure it.

“The strongest in the territory of the Immortal Dao is my master. He’s only at the mid-stage of the Initial Dao Realm. In the ancient era, there should be late-stage Initial Dao Realm experts. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have killed and suppressed those foreign invaders!”

Thinking of this, Shen Ping felt that the Chaotic Peak Mountain should be related to the group of people who had invaded the world in the ancient era. There were Dao Origin Realm experts inside. Or rather, the faction behind the Chaotic Peak Mountain was in the Dao Origin Realm!

For example, Chaotic Peak Mountain was only a gathering place. It could not even be considered a dojo. Any high-level domain in the Endless World could crush such a gathering place.

The realms near Chaotic Peak Mountain had long been opened up, which meant that they were related to the endless world. As for why the Immortal Dao Domain had not encountered another foreign invasion for so long, it might be related to the Realm Sea Peak.

While his thoughts were wandering, the tidal surge began. There was no magnificent scene, nor was there any earth-shattering scene. There was only a silent tide, as if there was an invisible energy constantly pushing waves of energy that collided with the Black Swamp Cliff. Then, it reverberated, collided, and reverberated. Finally, it formed a special reflux area not far from the Black Swamp Cliff.

Many Venerable Sovereigns watched this scene. When the Dao runes in the reflux area became more and more dense, a Venerable Sovereign could not help but rush out. This charge was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves.

A large number of Venerable Sovereigns, including those Immortal Venerables who wanted to try their luck, moved. As long as they could snatch a Dao rune bead, they would earn at least a few years’ worth of income.

Shen Ping was also among them, but he fell behind. At the same time, he activated his Pupil of Sea Beast and looked around. Indeed, he saw a Realm Bandit waiting in the distance.

Time passed slowly.

As the first and second beads were produced, the competition between them became more and more intense. In the end, they even fought. In less than two minutes, more than 30 Venerable Sovereigns had died.

In the Immortal Dao territory, every Venerable Sovereign who died was an earth-shattering matter. It was enough to change the future of a race, but here, the Venerable Sovereign died without any ripples.

Even though Shen Ping had long expected this, he was still shocked when he saw this scene with his own eyes. After all, this was a Venerable Sovereign!

When the last Dao rune bead belonged to someone, this bitter competition for beads was also coming to an end.

During the return trip, the waiting bandits rushed out. These Venerable Sovereigns were all prepared. They immediately attacked and quickly spread out. Some even changed their auras, trying to confuse the situation.

But the Realm Bandits had long locked onto the Venerable Sovereigns who had snatched the Dao rune beads. Therefore, very quickly, the two sides began to fight. Although there were Initial Dao Realm bandits among the Realm Bandits, most of them were weak. It was difficult to deal with them in a short time, let alone those who wanted to fish in troubled waters.

For example, Shen Ping. This was also the main reason why many Venerable Sovereigns were willing to risk their lives to mine pearls. Otherwise, if they knew that they would die, only a fool would come.

When it was about to end, Shen Ping immediately switched to the puppet and erupted with the aura of the late-stage Initial Dao Stage.

“What? The late stage of Initial Dao Realm?”

“An expert of this level is also here to snatch the Dao rune beads?”

The Realm Bandits and the Venerable Sovereigns who were still alive were completely dumbfounded. Although the Dao rune bead was valuable, it was only comparable to a Venerable Sovereign.

“He must have used some secret technique to forcefully raise his cultivation to the late-stage of the Initial Dao Realm. I’ll hold him back. You guys continue to deal with the rest and snatch back the Dao rune beads!”

The mid-stage Initial Dao Stage expert among the Realm Bandits immediately rushed towards Shen Ping. However, as soon as they fought, he realized that he was wrong. He was very wrong. Not only was this expert in front of him at the true late-stage Initial Dao Realm, but he also had several high-quality Great Dao treasures.

Not long after, he lost more than 40% of his body.

“Retreat!”

“Hurry up and retreat!”

Shen Ping sneered. They were only thinking of leaving now, unfortunately, it was too late. He directly burned a portion of the puppet’s Dao Body and his strength increased greatly. The Netherworld Painting and the Purple Spirit Rope in his hand became even more powerful. In the blink of an eye, he suppressed the mid-stage Initial Dao Stage Venerable. The other Venerable Sovereigns were also caught up by him with his strange beast talent.

An hour passed.

He, who had changed his aura and appearance, had sold all the Dao rune beads in Black Swamp Market Town. Including the Realm Bandits he had plundered this time, he had obtained more than 3,500 Genesis Crystals. This was still because he had consumed a lot of energy from the early-stage Initial Dao Stage fellow. Otherwise, he would have obtained even more.

“A horse can’t get fat without night grass, and a man can’t get rich without a windfall! The ancients are right!” Shen Ping chuckled. This time, he had accumulated enough Genesis Crystals to buy Dao Spirit Pills. If he bought rare medicinal pills that could recover his Dao Body, it would be enough to completely recover his puppet Dao Body. “I’ll come back after a while!”

The chives have to be harvested when they grow up. If he did this often, the Realm Bandits would definitely be so afraid that they would not dare to plunder again. Therefore, he obediently stayed in Black Swamp Town to cultivate and improve his Immortal Body. It had to be said that there were still many treasures to improve his Immortal Body in Black Swamp Town. After spending half a year, he advanced to the intermediate Immortal King realm.

At this speed, he was confident that he could break through to the Immortal Venerable realm even without gathering the red authority bracelet and opening the Realm Sea Peak Treasury.

In the blink of an eye, three years had passed.

In the past three years, Shen Ping made a total of five moves and obtained more than 10,000 Genesis Crystals. After deducting the resources he used to buy them, he still had more than 4,000 Genesis Crystals left.

“Time to go to Chaotic Peak City!”

After all, Black Swamp Market Town was a small place. He had plundered it five times, scaring the Realm Bandits so much that they did not dare to go to Black Swamp Cliff again. Even the Realm Bandits near the port and in the distance seemed to have received the news and did not dare to appear.

It made the town a lot safer.
