Beast Pattern Golden Core!
Shen Ping looked surprised. He had once heard Hall Master Shan Huo say that a Golden Core of this level was said to be the strongest pill pattern, but it had never appeared in the five continents and four seas. At that time, he only thought that this was a flatbread drawn by Hall Master Shan Huo to motivate him to work hard in his cultivation.
But now, he had really condensed a Beast Pattern Golden Core.
“The Beast Pattern Golden Core is very magical. It has all kinds of profundities. Not only can it allow a cultivator’s magic powers to be thick and powerful, but their cultivation speed will also increase. In the future, there will be no more obstacles to the Nascent Soul, Divine Transformation, and other cultivation bottlenecks!”
The gentle voice continued to ring in her ears. “The most important thing is that once you condense a Beast Pattern Golden Core and absorb the essence of the blood of strange beasts, it will transform into a wisp of strange beast power. This power contains the true power of heaven and earth. It can change a cultivator’s apt.i.tude and comprehension.”
The Head Hall Master’s eyes lit up slightly, and there was a hint of antic.i.p.ation in her gentle voice. “If a cultivator with the power of a strange beast comprehends the Beast Scripture, not only will they not be affected at all, but they will also be able to comprehend the concept of a strange beast more easily.
“The condition to become a personal disciple is to inherit the Beast Scripture. Now that you’ve condensed the Beast Pattern Golden Core, you’re naturally the most suitable successor!”
So that was how it was! It turned out that the wisp of golden light in his dantian was actually the power of a strange beast. This power could actually change his comprehension and talent. In that case, the reason why he could comprehend half of the basic combination of the Puppet Beast Scripture in a short period of time was because of the power of strange beasts.
After understanding this, Shen Ping hurriedly stood up and bowed. “Thank you for clearing my doubts, Master.”
The Head Hall Master looked at Shen Ping. “It’s my duty to teach and clear my doubts. Since you’re my personal disciple, if you have any doubts in the future, you can come to this courtyard directly.”
She flipped her wrist. A simple purple jade ring floated in the air. Then, she waved her fingertips. The purple jade ring flickered and landed in front of Shen Ping. “Inject your magic power into this ring. No matter when or where you are in the five continents and four seas, you can instantly arrive at the Jingsi House.”
When Shen Ping heard this, he could not help but confirm, “Master, if I’m in a remote area of the Southern Flame Continent, can 1 also instantly come to the Jingsi House through this ring?”
Although the Head Hall Master was a powerful cultivator who stood at the peak of the five continents and four seas, and he shouldn’t have any doubts, the ability of this Dharma treasure was too strong.
If it was true, then when he was in danger in the future, as long as he was not instantly destroyed, wouldn’t he be able to escape and come to the headquarters?!
The Head Hall Master nodded with a smile. “As long as it’s in the five continents and four seas, you won’t be affected even if you encounter a trap array.”
Shen Ping could not help but reveal a look of joy. This purple jade ring was indeed a powerful life-saving treasure! Compared to that, the armor that his master had given him previously was much inferior. After putting it away, he quickly thanked her.
The Head Hall Master’s dignified and virtuous face smiled. “Disciple, do you have any doubts?”
“I have no more…” The words were on the tip of his tongue. Shen Ping suddenly swallowed his words. He looked at the purple jade ring in his hand and thought of the armor and the storage ring that concealed his aura, as well as the many restricted resources he and his wife and Dao companions enjoyed. There were also the immortal herbs and spiritual plants from before… Everything had its gains and losses.
The fact that the True Treasure Pavilion could nurture immortal herbs showed how powerful their background was. Such a faction was definitely not nurturing them just for the inheritance of the Beast Scripture.
Cultivators cultivating immortality were heaven-defying. Most of them were for themselves. As for the sects, factions, and cultivation families, they also fought for resources and pursued longevity. Even if they were related by blood, they would not spend so much effort to nurture others.
Shen Ping looked up and cupped his hands seriously. “Master, if 1 inherit the Beast Scripture, I wonder what kind of responsibility 1 will have to bear in the future?”
There was no free lunch in the world. It was even more so in this cruel and difficult cultivation world. He enjoyed the preferential treatment of the various resources of the True Treasure Pavilion. So he had to give something.
He was already mentally prepared for this. However, since he had become a personal disciple and had such an opportunity, he wanted to know what he needed to do so that he could make preparations in advance.
The Head Hall Master clearly did not expect Shen Ping to ask such a question. She was silent for a moment. The smile on her dignified and virtuous face gradually disappeared and became calm. Her gentle voice seemed to have a hint of heaviness. “Do you really want to know?”
Shen Ping kept cupping his hands. He continued with an extremely serious expression, “Master, please tell me!”
The Head Hall Master stood up and took a step forward, standing almost in front of Shen Ping. The texture of her fair skin was clearly visible, and her eyes under her eyebrows revealed an indescribable light. It was not until she stared at Shen Ping for dozens of breaths that her gentle voice sounded faintly. “It’s not good for you to know the future too early. It might even affect your Dao heart and make it difficult for you to advance in your life!”
Shen Ping’s eyes were clear as he said again, “1 want to know.”
Seeing that her disciple was so determined, the Head Hall Master suddenly smiled. She slowly raised her fingertip and tapped Shen Ping’s glabella. Then, a majestic aura swept over.
Before Shen Ping could react, his divine sense directly penetrated his body. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly realized that he was standing on the first level of the a.s.sessment s.p.a.ce. There was an endless dark rocky land around him. However, the jagged rocks were gone.
“Disciple, the matters involved in inheriting the Beast Scripture are too complicated. However, since you want to know, I’ll tell you everything today.”
When a gentle voice sounded in his ears, Shen Ping quickly realized that his divine consciousness body was constantly floating upwards. The s.p.a.ce on the first level of the dark rock ground became smaller and smaller. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the second level, the third level… the ninth level.
The continuous mountain range lay in front of him and then shrank at a visible speed. The figure in a palace dress standing beside him turned his gaze and asked, “Disciple, do you know how big the five continents and four seas are?” Shen Ping looked at the training s.p.a.ce environment that kept pa.s.sing in front of him and shook his head. “1 don’t know.”
The five continents and four seas were incomparably vast. The territory of the South Flame Continent alone far exceeded that of his previous life. Although he was a core skill genius of the True Treasure Pavilion, he did not know the area of the five continents and four seas. There were no records in the treasure vault.
Her black hair fluttered in the wind, and her clothes fluttered in the wind. She raised her sleeves and waved her fair fingers. Layers of trial s.p.a.ce suddenly sped up until the two of them stood at the highest level. Only then did the surroundings gradually become clear.
After calming down, Shen Ping’s pupils constricted. The layers of trial s.p.a.ce under his feet had completely turned into nothingness at this moment. The outline of a huge world at the bottom was slowly reflected in front of him. The South Flame Continent, the North Island Continent… the Zhongsheng Continent, and many islands that were densely packed like stars appeared clearly.
“This is the four seas of the five continents. It’s vast and wide, but it’s also in an area.” The gentle voice entered his ears.
Shen Ping’s heart was in turmoil. He stared at the prosperous cultivation world under his feet as all kinds of thoughts appeared. He, who had experienced a huge amount of information in his previous life, could not help but feel disbelief at this moment even though he was extremely accepting.
After all, according to his understanding of cultivation for more than 6o years, the five continents and the four seas were a vast cultivation world. There were countless cultivators and mortals inside, and there were also many strange demon beasts and living beings. However, such a prosperous cultivation place was actually just a dharma treasure world.
After a long while, Shen Ping recovered from the shock of the scene in front of him. He took a few deep breaths and bowed. “Master, even spiritual ancient treasures can’t derive a world, and the five continents and four seas are so huge that they can accommodate such a world. Could it be that the s.p.a.ce of this trial tower is…”
“It’s called the Nine Continents Tower.” The phantom of a white jade tower floated in the palm of her palace dress, and a nostalgic look surged in her eyes. “It’s a supreme treasure of the Immortal Dao of our human race. The five continents and four seas it nurtured were cultivation worlds created by the human race after imitating the Nine Provinces where the Immortal Dao was prosperous. It’s mainly used to suppress strange beasts..”
