Chapter 973: Black Swamp Port (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
The endless world was filled with danger. There were experts from various realms, Venerable Sovereign lifeforms who walked out of the Realm Sea, and some who came from large factions to adventure and temper themselves. They mixed in, especially in a gathering place like Chaotic Peak Mountain. It could be said that there were good and bad people mixed together.
Shen Ping pondered, then he opened the virtual box. His gaze quickly swept past the data of his wife, concubine and dao companions and landed on the progress of the Great Dao.
[Metal: Progress (Complete)]
[Fire: Progress (Complete)]
[Earth: Progress (Complete)]
[Water: Progress (75%)]
[Wood: Progress (86%)]
…
[Five Elements: Progress (48%)]
[Yin-Yang: Progress (33%)]
[Reincarnation: Progress (37%)]
[Chaos Hole: Progress (31%)]
[Fate: Progress (1%)]
Over the years, he had used the Soul Manipulation Sword Manual to constantly temper himself in the Realm Sea Peak’s palace world. The various Great Dao of Heaven and Earth had improved. Most importantly, he could cultivate even after leaving the Immortal Dao territory and the nearby realms. However, he could not enter the Realm Sea Peak at any time like before.
He had lost his strongest life-saving trump card.
The strange beast talent could still be used. This made Shen Ping somewhat gratified. His current main combat strength was actually the top Heaven and Earth Great Dao, the Chaos Hole Great Dao, and the Fate Great Dao. Then, it was the early-stage Initial Dao Realm puppet, where half of his Dao Body was lost, which was equivalent to mid-stage strength. His overall strength was barely comparable to the late-stage Initial Dao Realm.
Although the strength of the worlds around Chaotic Peak Mountain was very ordinary, and the strongest was at the late-stage Initial Dao Realm, this was only a normal situation. There might be some experts from the outer realm who had powerful methods.
So he kept cautioning himself in his mind— You can’t be careless.
He suppressed his thoughts, moved his gaze away from the data of the Great Dao and looked at the virtual frame where his wife, concubine, and Dao companions belonged.
There’s not much change. In fact, ever since he left the five continents and four seas, the increase brought about by his wife, concubine, and dao companions was mainly in terms of his strange beast talent. Other attributes were very little help to him.
Shen Ping did not take it to heart. “Huh, this is…?” He was stunned when he landed in the newly added virtual frame belonging to Immortal Venerable Luan. Except for normal attributes, there was actually an additional status that is called feedback.
Previously, only special virtual frames had a feedback effect. This time, it was just the silver frame. And the lowest was a silver frame.
[Feedback Effect: Your Dao Companion has obtained 0.1% of the progress of the Great Dao of Fire.]
His eyes lit up. Although he basically did not gain anything from interacting with Immortal Venerable Luan, if Immortal Venerable Luan could continuously obtain progress in the Great Dao, breaking through to the Venerable Sovereign realm was no longer an extravagant hope. If he had a Venerable Sovereign by his side, it would be much more helpful to him than simply obtaining benefits from his Dao companion.
Shen Ping smiled. In the past, he had relied on the virtual interface to constantly grow. Now that he had grown up, it was time to give feedback to his dao companion.
Thinking of this, he put away the virtual interface and looked at Immortal Venerable Luan with burning eyes. Immortal Venerable Luan sensed his gaze. Even the Immortal Venerable’s body that was covered in a long dress could not help but surge with flames.
As an Immortal Venerable, her willpower was extremely tenacious, so she naturally would not be immersed in the relationship between a man and a woman. However, every time she communicated with Shen Ping about the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, she would obtain a sublimation in the depths of her soul. It was as if she was completely swimming in the Great Dao, and her understanding of fire had deepened a little. Therefore, not only did she not resist this kind of communication, but she also yearned from the bottom of her heart.
Boom. The ship-shaped Great Dao treasure had already charged into the natural vortex. A huge suction force enveloped the Great Dao treasure. In just ten minutes, the Great Dao treasure came out from the other end of the vortex.
As if they were telepathic, be it Shen Ping, Immortal Venerable Luan, or Immortal Venerable Yao, they subconsciously looked at the natural vortex behind them. They all sensed an aura quickly dissipating from their bodies. This aura was very familiar, like a mother’s cradle.
“We’ve left the Realm Sea in the territory of the immortal Dao!” Immortal Venerable Yao whispered. Even without the star map, the spiritual connection would let them know.
Immortal Venerable Luan nodded, “We’re probably the first to leave.”
Shen Ping smiled. “Let’s go. There will be more Immortal Venerables and Venerable Sovereigns leaving in the future.”
Realms are like cradles. It blocked the endless wind and rain outside, allowing the creatures in the realm to grow. However, if they wanted to grow better, they had to leave this cradle and face everything outside alone.
Next, Immortal Venerable Yao was still in seclusion in the cabin, while Shen Ping and Immortal Venerable Luan were even more immersed in their communication. Sometimes, when they forgot themselves, they would even rush in front of Immortal Venerable Yao and demonstrate the most primitive form of the Great Dao of Fire under her nose.
“Can you two have some tact? There’s someone else here!” Immortal Venerable Yao looked at the completely honest immortal body in front of her and sniffed the pungent smell. Her brows furrowed, and her tone was filled with embarra.s.sment.
Immortal Venerable Luan’s fiery red hair scattered casually, and her fair jade-like arm had nowhere to place. She moaned, “Sis-Sister Yao, we served Fellow Daoist Shen together in the palace world. Why don’t you join us?”
Shen Ping also looked at Immortal Venerable Yao with a faint smile.
“It’s a bit stuffy in here. You two keep talking. I’m going out for some fresh air.” Helpless, Immortal Venerable Yao stood up and left.
Immortal Venerable Luan said with red lips and white teeth, “Fellow Daoist Shen, Sister Yao is just shy. You should take the initiative.”
