Chapter 368: Secret of Longevity (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“However, humans are sinister. Even I can’t resist the temptation of longevity. Therefore, you must not tell anyone about this!” The Head Hall Master’s dignified and virtuous face was filled with solemnity. She did not expect that her first personal disciple would encounter such a thing after inheriting the Beast Scripture. Although she did not know what was inside that door, since it was related to longevity, it must be a huge fortuitous encounter!
Most cultivators prioritized their own interests. Dao-companions would turn against each other for a magic treasure and resources. Not to mention that this matter concerned longevity!
Shen Ping immediately realized the severity of the matter. He knew that what his master said was the truth. After all, cultivation was for longevity. Now that the mystery of longevity was on him, anyone would be tempted.
It would have been fine if he had the strength. But the key was that he was only a Golden Core cultivator! Even though he had many methods and powerful trump cards, if he faced a Nascent Soul or a Divine Transformation cultivator, it was useless no matter how many trump cards he had.
Just like the Head Hall Master of the True Treasure Pavilion in front of him. If the other party had any thoughts of coveting it, he would definitely die instantly. Thinking of this, he could not help but say, “Master, I…”
The Head Hall Master seemed to have guessed what Shen Ping wanted to say. She smiled faintly. “Disciple, this is your fortuitous opportunity. That Immortal Dao expert also said just now that only by condensing a special bloodline power can one use that imprint technique and sense the door related to the mystery of longevity. Therefore, it’s useless even if I s.n.a.t.c.h it!
“Besides, you’re my first disciple! I’m not so shameless as to s.n.a.t.c.h my own personal disciple’s opportunity.”
Shen Ping laughed dryly and hurriedly changed the topic. “Master, what 1 mean is that there must be many dangers inside that door. Even that Immortal Dao senior reminded me, so I still need your help!”
The Head Hall Master could not help but laugh. Then, she pondered and said, “What you said is not unreasonable. However, you and I know about this. No one else can know about it. You can’t even tell your wife, concubine, and Dao companions. I heard that you’re very concerned about them, but their cultivation levels are still low. If anything goes wrong…”
Shen Ping hurriedly said, “I understand. The matter of the Beast Scripture is a secret between me and Master. No one will know!”
The Head Hall Master felt that there was something wrong with this sentence, but she did not expect it to be wrong. She shook her head and said, “Something happened today. The inheritance of the Beast Scripture will stop for the time being. When you figure out the use of the imprint technique and enter the door to investigate the exact situation, I will bring you here.
“Although the ultimate goal of inheriting the Beast Scripture is to enter that door, no matter what, comprehending the Beast Scripture can make you stronger.”
Shen Ping nodded repeatedly.
A moment later,
In the small courtyard of Jingsi House.
The Head Hall Master reminded again, “Disciple, if you sense that door, I don’t suggest you enter now. Your cultivation level is too low. If you encounter danger, the consequences will be unimaginable. However, I also understand that no one can resist that temptation. If it were me, I would probably immediately go in and investigate.”
As she spoke, she flipped her wrist. An exquisite shield floated in her palm. “Although this shield is only a spiritual ancient treasure, its defensive power is enough to withstand an attack at the Divine Transformation Realm. Coupled with the Purple Mystic Jade Spiritual Jade on your body, it’s enough to protect you. Other stronger magic treasures are inferior to spiritual ancient treasures to you.”
Shen Ping understood what his master meant. His cultivation was only at the Golden Core Realm, and it was extremely difficult for even a Spirit Channeling Ancient Treasure to display its true might. If he didn’t possess the strength of a strange beast, then refining a Spirit Channeling Ancient Treasure would take a very long time.
He took the shield. He hurriedly bowed and said, “Thank you, Master.”
“The bloodline power that that Immortal Dao expert mentioned should be the power of strange beasts. When you cultivate and use the imprint technique, if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can come to the Jingsi House at any time. Remember to be careful!”
Fire Spirit Hall.
In the quiet room.
Shen Ping, who had returned, sat cross-legged on a cushion, his thoughts flying. He touched the mark between his eyebrows. He really wanted to see the contents of the cultivation technique with his divine sense now. However, he kept suppressing his usual caution. He could not be anxious.
Calm down. He had to calm down.
Phew.
Ha.
He took more than ten deep breaths. However, that thought became stronger and stronger. No matter how Shen Ping chanted, he could not suppress his thoughts. After all, this was the secret of longevity.
Wasn’t cultivating all for longevity? And now, longevity was right in front of him.
He gritted his teeth. Shen Ping, who could not sit still, simply stood up and stepped out of the quiet room. He went straight to the quiet room where his wife was. She seemed to have sensed Shen Ping. w.a.n.g Yun, who was cultivating, opened her eyes and went to the door of the quiet room. “Husband…”
She had just opened her mouth when Shen Ping carried his wife up. He quickly flashed to the master bedroom. He pulled open her embroidered pink dress. A black-striped undergarment came into view amidst the l.u.s.ter of her fair and moist skin. His eyes lit up. His wife rarely dressed in black. This black and white scenery had a different flavor.
There was no hesitation. He bit the belt and pulled. The curve began to undulate. The crystal lamp also swayed.
The crow of a rooster announces the dawn. The sky gradually brightened. After countless times, his wife had already fallen asleep from exhaustion. Shen Ping leaned against the edge of the bed. He hugged w.a.n.g Yun’s shoulder and heaved a sigh of relief. That thought was finally suppressed.
He rested for a while before he walked out of the master bedroom and swept his gaze across the other quiet rooms. Finally, his gaze landed in the direction of Pei Huoyu’s seclusion. The Personal Disciple Ceremony had delayed her for a while, but according to her, with the help of the Blood Infant Crystal and other resources, coupled with her strong foundation, the chances of her successfully condensing her Nascent Soul this time were extremely high.
“Nascent Soul…” He murmured. He entered the quiet room again and began to meditate. Half a month later, after refining the shield given to him by his master and adjusting his mind to the best, Shen Ping directly came to Jingsi House through the purple jade ring. The golden mark between his brows was left behind by that Immortal Dao expert.
However, it was unknown if it was a technique. What if there was hidden danger? It was too late for Shen Ping to regret it then. Therefore, he had to infiltrate the technique in front of his master. If anything happened during this period, he could obtain his master’s timely help.
Knowing why Shen Ping was here, the Head Hall Master, who was dressed in a palace dress, smiled and said, “Not bad. You can still remain calm in front of such an opportunity. Disciple, your mental state is even more stable than I expected. This Jingsi House is a special place and even has some methods of the Nine Continents Tower. You can watch in peace.”
Shen Ping looked more relaxed. He sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes and calmed his mind. Then, his divine sense surged. The moment he touched the golden mark between his eyebrows, a huge amount of information rushed into his sea of consciousness. Ever since his divine sense broke through to the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm, he had never felt so dizzy just from receiving information.
And it happened again this time.
“The bloodline power of a mystical beast contains the power of heaven and earth. If you want to use it, you have to know the essence of this power…” The bell-like sound kept ringing in his ears.
Shen Ping only listened for dozens of breaths before blood flowed from his mouth and nose.
Seeing this, the Head Hall Master, who was guarding at the side, immediately shouted, “Disciple, wake up, wake up!”
Shen Ping, who was immersed in the sound of the mysterious technique, immediately woke up. Only then did he realize that more than half of his Niwan Palace’s spirit had been consumed. However, he heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. It seemed that this imprint technique was not dangerous.
He swallowed a few pills, and meditated for an hour. After recovering, Shen Ping continued to listen. This repeated for half a month. He finally knew everything about the methods contained in the imprint technique.
“How is it?” The Head Hall Master’s dignified and virtuous face revealed some antic.i.p.ation.
Shen Ping said excitedly, “Master, there are indeed methods to use the power of strange beasts in that cultivation technique mark. Moreover, it’s not difficult. You just need to…” Speaking of this, he frowned and paused for a moment before continuing, “You just need to… Master, the contents seem to be indescribable.”
The Head Hall Master was not surprised. She smiled and said, “It’s fine. The methods of an Immortal Dao expert are not something we can easily know. Since this method is not difficult, you can try to cultivate it first..”
