“Sword Seal City!” Shen Ping muttered.
Sword Seal City was not Gray Stone City. There were Body Integration cultivators of various races guarding it. With his current cultivation and methods, it was very difficult for him to quickly control the city with his powerful strength like he had killed Shi Hu. Not to mention anything else, just Fairy Luo Xia of Luo Xia Peak was not something he could deal with now.
Therefore, no matter how anxious he was to develop the True Treasure Pavilion and control the information, he had to take it slowly. When he thought of Fairy Luo Xia, he frowned. Some time ago, she had sent a disciple over and invited him to Sword Seal City to partic.i.p.ate in the disciple compet.i.tion of various sects. At that time, he was still in seclusion and ignored her.
Now that he thought about it, he could make a trip there. If he could get to know the Void Refinement Realm higher-ups of the various sects, perhaps the development of the True Treasure Pavilion would be smoother.
He immediately sent a message to An Zhiyuan, asking him to prepare a flying ship and set off for Sword Seal City tomorrow.
Not long after, Jing Huilan and the An sisters came after hearing the news.
“Husband, are you going to Sword Seal City?”
“That’s right!
“Can you bring Lan’er along?” Jing Huilan said gently. Her eyes were filled with antic.i.p.ation. She had been worried sick when Shen Ping was alone in Sword Seal City last time. This time, she did not want to be separated from her husband no matter what.
The An sisters stood at the side, their eyes pleading. “Pavilion Master, Y-Yue’er, and Sister want to go too!”
Shen Ping smiled and nodded. “Sure.”
If it was before he broke through to the Divine Transformation Realm, he would definitely not have brought them along. However, now that his strength had soared, he was not afraid even if he faced a Body Integration Realm cultivator. Bringing Jing Huilan and the others would not affect him. Moreover, after such a long time, the three women had almost never left Gray Stone City. This time, he would take it as bringing them to relax.
“Thank you, Husband.”
“Thank you, Pavilion Master!”
The three women immediately beamed with joy. Speaking of which, only Jing Huilan had once followed the Jing family’s ancestor to Sword Seal City. As for the An sisters, the furthest place was Gray Stone City. After all, the Abyss of Supreme Darkness was a chaotic place. The various races were mixed, unlike the other cultivation places.
A few days later on the deck of the large flying ship, Jing Huilan, who was wearing an embroidered green silkworm jade robe, had a rosy l.u.s.ter on her peach blossom-like face. An Zhi, who was on her left, teased, “Pavilion Master, your cultivation has broken through and your strength has become more and more ferocious. Can Sister Huilan withstand it?”
An Yue, who was at the side, had a shy expression, but her ears were quietly p.r.i.c.ked up.
Jing Huilan lowered her head. “Sister An Zhi only knows how to make fun of me. I think it won’t be long before you and Sister Yue’er know how brave my husband is.”
An Zhi smiled charmingly. “I want to, but I’m afraid that the two sisters will be jealous!”
Jing Huilan shook her head. “Husband has a Dao companion to begin with. How can I dare to monopolize his kindness? If I have two sisters to help me, I can’t ask for more.”
An Zhi glanced at the flying ship pavilion and was relieved. She said meaningfully, “Sister Huilan, how big is the pavilion master?”
Jing Huilan’s face turned even redder. She whispered into An Zhi’s ear like a mosquito. An Zhi’s eyes immediately widened. She covered her mouth and said, “This, this… No wonder the pavilion master said that Yue’er couldn’t withstand it. Now, it seems that it’s true!”
An Yue did not say anything, but a voice appeared in her heart, “As majestic as a mountain!”
In the attic, Shen Ping did not know what the three women were discussing outside. At this moment, he was communicating with his master through the prismatic resplendent crystal. Although his master had begun to focus on cultivation and wanted to obtain a trace of authority over the human race’s supreme treasure, she could still occasionally communicate with him.
“Disciple, the seniors of the Immortal Dao have already told me the range of the True Immortal experts of the lower realms of the various races. You have to remember it and be prepared.”
Shen Ping nodded solemnly. Soon, Lian Xuejin explained the general area of activity of the True Immortals of the various races.
“Fortunately, with the obstruction of the seniors of the human race and the fact that the supreme treasure of the human race has a certain level of concealment, the search area of the various races in the Western District is still in the Eastern District. They haven’t been able to cross the sea of stars. Looking at this speed, it will take dozens of years to find Sword Seal City. Disciple, you must take this time to study the Beast Scripture as soon as possible and increase your cultivation strength!”
“I understand!”
He put away the resplendent crystal. Shen Ping secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the environment of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness was special. Even True Immortal-level experts could not teleport from afar and could only rely on flying. Otherwise, he would have been exposed long ago.
Boom!
At this moment, the flying ship shook.
“Demon attack!”
“Demon attack!”
Hearing the sound of magic power spreading, Shen Ping got up and flashed to the deck.
“Husband.”
“Pavilion Master.”
The three women’s expressions were relatively relaxed. The demon cultivator who attacked the flying ship was only at the early-stage Nascent Soul realm. He could not even destroy the defense of the flying ship. Moreover, he only attacked a few times and quickly escaped after sensing that the flying ship’s grade was extraordinary.
“These demon cultivators are really slippery!” Shen Ping frowned.
An Zhiyuan sighed and said, “There’s no choice. The demon race’s cultivation system is special, and there’s no fixed gathering place. If the caravan encounters hara.s.sment, they can only be unlucky.”
Jing Huilan blinked and said, “Senior An, I heard from my ancestor that some powerful Body Integration cultivators can lock onto the spatial rift and even enter the spatial rift to reach the land of the demons.”
An Zhiyuan nodded, “That’s true. It’s even easier for seniors at the Mahayana Realm to do it. Before the Myriad Spirit Ranking appeared, the seniors of the human race had to gather experts at the Mahayana Realm and Tribulation Transcendence Realm every once in a while and kill their way into the Demon Race from the crack. Only then could our human race have peace. But now, the human race can’t even take care of themselves and can only let the Demon Race wreak havoc..”
