Chapter 833: Opportunity to Ascension (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
The dazzling pillar of light shattered the densely packed poisonous scorpion creatures into pieces. Every piece of the complete Talisman Beast Diagram contained the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. The power gathered made Shen Ping secretly speechless.
Ever since he had the talent of a strange beast, he had almost never used such a low-level divine power again. But from the looks of it, the Sea of Talisman was still terrifyingly powerful. It was simply comparable to 30% of the power of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
The most ordinary Immortal Venerable only had Great Dao comprehension at this level.
Just as he was lamenting the power of the Sea of Talisman, a drop of golden liquid gradually floated out from the bottom of the completely destroyed puddle. This liquid flowed with a crystal clear blood color and looked very demonic.
After Shen Ping noticed it, he waved his hand and grabbed the golden liquid with his immortal spiritual power.
Sensing the tyrannical aura emitted from the surface of the golden liquid, a look of joy appeared on his face. Although he did not know what use this golden liquid had, it was definitely a good thing.
Hence, he led the Earth Beast Demon Bug across the vast gra.s.sland to search for other potholes. In less than an hour, he obtained three drops of golden liquid.
As he continued his search, powerful immortal energy fluctuations came from up ahead. He immediately rushed over and saw more than ten tribal immortal experts fighting over a puddle. Clearly, these immortal experts had also discovered the golden liquid.
The demonic bug roared and instinctively rushed over. When the Immortals saw the demon bug, their expressions changed drastically. Without thinking, they fled, abandoning the puddles. The tribal immortals who were fleeing in all three directions were moving at an extremely fast speed. But the demon bug was faster.
In just two breaths, they caught up to a small group of four. They could feel the wind blowing behind them.
“Guys, stop running.”
Shen Ping’s calm voice spread. The small group of four immediately stopped. They turned around and cupped their hands with a bitter smile. “Fellow Daoist Shen of the human race, please let us go.”
“Hand over the golden liquid and I can consider it.”
“We’ll hand it over.”
Gritting their teeth, the four of them handed over the treasures.
“Just one drop?” Shen Ping said coldly.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, the creatures at the bottom of the puddle are really not easy to deal with. The four of us spent a lot of effort dealing with one puddle. The one we found just now was discovered by other experts before we could do it. That was why a conflict broke out.”
Shen Ping said noncommittally, “Then do any of you know what use this golden liquid has?”
The four of them shook their heads.
He waved his hand. To Shen Ping’s surprise, the four Immortals did not leave.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, can the four of us follow you? If we encounter a puddle, we can help get rid of the creatures inside and the golden liquid will belong to you.”
Shen Ping was stunned for a moment before he quickly reacted. “You mean you want my protection?”
“Yes, yes.”
“As you can see, it’s very difficult to survive on the vast gra.s.sland on the third level of the Demon Mountain. It’s fine if we encounter other teams, but once we encounter the Earth Beast Demon Bug, we basically have no chance of survival. And you have the Demon Bug, so we want to follow you.”
The leader continued, “Although the four of us are not strong, we can at least help. As time pa.s.ses, more and more immortals will definitely gather into teams and act collectively. Although you have the demon bug, I’m afraid you’ll be alone later.”
Shen Ping pondered. It had to be said that what this leader said made sense. The number of immortals who had survived in the Demon Mountain this time was actually not small. From the survival rate of the cave hall on the second level, there should be more than tens of thousands. After all, the overall number was too huge.
Among these tens of thousands of people, as long as they formed a team, the power they could unleash could not be underestimated. If they formed an immortal array, even the Earth Beast Demon Bug would find it difficult to deal with them.
There’s no doubt about people forming a larger team. No matter how powerful a lone wolf was, he had no choice but to join the team in the end because of the situation. Even Immortal Venerables like Maji and Gui Shu should be no exception.
He said coldly, “Sure, but you must swear an oath to the Heavenly Dao. In addition, you must listen to me and not act on your own.”
The four Immortals’ faces sank. The leader saw the coldness in Shen Ping’s eyes and quickly said, “We are willing.”
If he refused, he knew very well that the other party would not let them off. Immediately, the four immortals swore Heavenly Dao oaths one after another. This kind of oath was very effective. Once it was violated, it was very easy to go berserk during cultivation. Unless it was a last resort, no one dared to violate the oath they had sworn.
When the four Immortals flew onto the Earth Beast Demon Bug, the bug shook in dissatisfaction, scaring the four of them until their faces turned pale.
Next, Shen Ping and the other four formed a group and galloped on the vast gra.s.sland to plunder. When they saw a team, they would ask them to hand over the golden liquid. If they didn’t, it was simple. They would hand over everything on them.
Under the pressure of Shen Ping’s demon bug, these experts could only choose to join the team.
Just like that, half a day pa.s.sed.
There were more than 50 people in the team, not only humans, but also other foreign races. In any case, everyone’s goal was to survive on the third level. Of course, there were no four foreign races.
With more than 50 Immortal experts as his lackeys, Shen Ping’s efficiency in plundering became faster and faster. He could only chase down one or two with the help of the demon bug. The other experts would take the opportunity to escape. However, after the number of teams increased, as long as there were less than ten teams under a group attack, they would not be able to resist at all..
