“Luck is also a part of strength.” Yin Yan beat him to it and said, “Fellow Daoist, you rushed to the top 10,000 on the first time the Beast Spirit Ranking opened. Your future is promising!”
As the saying goes, one should not slap a smiling person. The other party was so respectful, so Shen Ping did not want to look at her coldly either. He replied casually. During this period, he tried to find out some news about the Beast Spirit Ranking rankings, but Yin Ting and Yin Yan did not know.
As time pa.s.sed, the number of Beast Spirit geniuses that appeared in the plaza decreased. After a few hours, all the Beast Spirit geniuses in the entire third level of the underground palace had returned. From the looks of it, the number was ten percent less than when it was opened. Clearly, they had died in the stone house gra.s.sland.
“The speed of those bull-like creatures is too terrifying. Fortunately, I cultivated a good escape divine power and barely pa.s.sed the fourth.” From time to time, Yin Yan would talk about the situation of her battle in the stone house gra.s.sland. Occasionally, she would ask Shen Ping how he had pa.s.sed. “I’m really envious of Fellow Daoist Shen for having a high-grade beast spirit treasure. In this Beast Spirit Ranking compet.i.tion, high-grade beast spirit treasures have a huge advantage.”
Shen Ping agreed with this sentence. “Indeed, having or not having a high-level beast spirit treasure is completely different. If the two of you have one, it won’t be a problem for you to pa.s.s the fifth stone house gra.s.sland.” Yin Yan said faintly, “Sister Ting and I don’t have the strength to obtain a high-level beast spirit treasure from the Heaven Ascension Hall. In the future, we can only rely on our luck in the Heavenly Palace.
“It’s said that the probability of high-level beast spiritual treasures appearing in the first three levels of the Heavenly Palace is very low, but after the third level, they will appear every hundred years.”
The Heavenly Palace was different from the underground palace. It did not have to be in the Heaven Ascension Hall to have high-grade beast spiritual treasures.
They chatted for a while more before the huge Beast Spirit Ranking hanging above emitted a light.
All the Beast Spirit geniuses looked over and saw the light quickly converging into lines of divine runes. “The Beast Spirit Ranking will open every 500 years. Those ranked within 10,000 in the overall ranking can obtain a spot to enter the Realm Sea Palace. Those ranked within 1,000 can obtain two chances. Those ranked within 100 can obtain five. The top 10 Beast Spirit prodigies can obtain ten times. Those ranked in the top three can obtain 15 times. Those ranked first can obtain 20 times.
“The Beast Spirit geniuses in the top 20 of the individual ranking can obtain a Beast Pattern Golden Fruit. The top three will obtain an additional high-level Beast Spirit Treasure.”
After ten minutes, the immortal seal divine runes split into wisps of light that enveloped the entire square.
Shen Ping quickly realized that one of the rays of light had landed on his body and converged on his arm to form a strange beast pattern. There was actually a s.p.a.ce in this pattern. In the s.p.a.ce, other than a beast pattern golden fruit, there was also a translucent token. The words Realm Sea Palace were engraved on the token.
The other top 20 and Beast Spirit geniuses ranked in the top 10,000 also absorbed the light.
“Beast Pattern Golden Fruit! As expected of the Beast Spirit Ranking. To think that it would be bestowed with a Beast Pattern Golden Fruit!” Yin Yan’s eyes were filled with envy. They, the Beast Spirit geniuses, did not need the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit, but the Immortal Dao seniors in the clan had a huge demand for the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit. In the Winged Clan, one Beast Pattern Golden Fruit could be exchanged for several high-grade immortal artifacts.
And this was only the bestowment based on ranking. The Realm Sea Palace in the overall ranking would definitely be better.
Yin Ting was also envious, but she was more happy for Shen Ping.
At this moment, a repulsive force suddenly surged out of the square. Before all the Beast Spirit geniuses could react, they were expelled out of the square by this repulsive force and returned to the third level of the underground palace.
Shen Ping looked around and realized that there were no Beast Spirit geniuses. His vigilance decreased a little. He looked at his arm and immediately felt a faint connection. He subconsciously raised his head and saw that a mountain enveloped in multicolored light had appeared in the sky above the underground palace.
Palaces could be vaguely seen on the mountain peak.
“Realm Sea Palace? That should be the Realm Sea Palace!” As he muttered, hundreds of streaks of light leaped towards the mountain peak Before they could reach the mountain peak, they were blocked by a layer of light. But several streaks of light entered the mountain peak without any obstruction. Seeing this scene, Shen Ping was stunned for a moment before he urged the magical power of the strange beast in his body to quickly rush towards the mountain peak.
“What? It’s actually a chance to enter the Realm Sea Palace!!”
“How is this possible? That’s the Realm Sea Palace. Back then, many Venerable Sovereigns gathered to open the Realm Sea Palace’s array formation. Now, we can enter just by reaching the 10,000th place on the Beast Spirit Ranking?” When the Spirit Race’s Venerable Sovereign heard the news, his dignified face revealed ripples. The other Immortal Venerables’ emotions fluctuated violently. Surprise, shock, and astonishment appeared one after another. They had all been to the Realm Sea. Although they had not stepped into the Realm Sea Palace, they knew what it meant. Those Connate cardinal treasures and strange beasts were all there.
Even Immortal Venerables like them did not have this chance. However, the Beast Spirit geniuses of the Strange Beast Gate who were only little fellows in their eyes actually had such an opportunity.
Jealousy.
Even though they had lived for countless years, they could not help but feel a little jealous. After all, that was the Realm Sea Palace!
The Venerable Sovereign swept his eyes and seemed to have guessed the thoughts of these Immortal Venerables. He said indifferently, “What kind of place is the Realm Sea Palace? Even if these Beast Spirit geniuses can step in, they’ll most likely only go to a special palace to nurture them.”
Hearing this, these Immortal Venerables finally reacted and nodded repeatedly. They had long deduced the purpose of the Strange Beast Gate. They panicked when they suddenly heard it just now. Now that they heard Venerable Sovereign’s words, they calmed down. That’s right, the Realm Sea Palace was not an ordinary place. Even Immortal Venerables could not step in, let alone those little fellows.
“No matter what, being able to make a trip to the Realm Sea Palace is already a huge opportunity. However, my Spirit Race did not enter the top three this time. It really disappoints me. There are five opportunities between the top ten and the top three. There are ten opportunities between the top ten. Hmph!” A vast aura spread out.
The Immortal Venerables’ faces turned pale as they bowed. “Venerable Sovereign, we are guilty.”
They were responsible for nurturing the prodigies. Moreover, many prodigies were their disciples. They had nurtured them with all kinds of resources and Connate cardinal treasures that accelerated time. They had paid too much of a price, but in the end, they were not even in the top three.
“The Beast Spirit Ranking opens once every 500 years. This time, I’ll let you off for now. If the results are still the same next time, you can ask for punishment!”
“Yes!”
The Venerable Sovereign actually knew that he could not blame the geniuses for being disappointing this time. It was mainly because the geniuses of the Realm Race and the Stone Race were too dazzling. In the past, he did not know the exact difference. Now that he knew, he could continuously narrow the gap. This was also the reason why he gave them another chance.
The results of the prodigies of the Devil Clan, the Flame Clan, the Winged Clan, and the other clans did not meet expectations.
They had no choice. Who asked the Realm Race and the Stone Race to occupy 70% of the top ten of the rankings? However, they still noticed the results of the human Beast Spirit genius. Although it was not worth mentioning compared to the prodigies of their race, he had only entered the Strange Beast Gate for a short period of time and had actually rushed into the top 10,000. His growth potential was really too shocking.
“After the Beast Spirit Ranking this time, the human race will definitely protect that Beast Spirit genius at all costs. If we increase the power of the lower realm, we might not be able to get what we want. I think we should let the clansmen of the western district of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness take action and eliminate the human cultivators!”
“The upper echelons of the Immortal Dao of the various races are not allowed to interfere with the cultivation environment of the lower realm. I don’t think humans dare to break this rule.”
“It’s worth a try.”
In the human Immortal Dao territory.
The Misty Peak was filled with celebration. In this Beast Spirit Ranking compet.i.tion, Immortal Venerable Qi’s ranking was relatively ordinary. He did not even enter the top 20 in the compet.i.tion for the top floor of the Heavenly Palace. It was mainly because he had comprehended the Beast Scripture for too short a time. However, no one expected Shen Ping to miraculously rush into the top 10,000!
“It’s the fortune of the human race. It’s the fortune of our human race!” Immortal Venerable Qi and the other Immortal Venerables could not help but look happy.
The human Venerable Sovereign also smiled warmly, “I’ve long heard from his master that Shen Ping has always been a genius in the Nine Continents Tower. His speed of comprehending the Beast Scripture is astonishing, and he keeps giving people surprises. Now that he’s at the Strange Beast Gate, this surprise hasn’t changed!”
“Haha!”
“Venerable Sovereign is right!”
“It’s good that the surprise came!”
The Immortal Venerables smiled in praise. After saying a few more words, the human Venerable Sovereign’s expression turned solemn. “After this Beast Spirit Ranking, the various races will definitely value our Genius Shen again. At that time, there will be some dark methods.. Everyone, you have to be extremely vigilant!”
