Abyss of Supreme Darkness.
In the main hall of the Alliance of Outsiders at the defense line of the sea of stars.
After receiving the news from the higher-ups, the Golden Immortal in charge of the Spirit Race, Ling Chen, looked at the other powerful Golden Immortal sent down in front of him and said helplessly, “Fellow Daoist Ling Guan, humans are extremely good at puppet arrays and other techniques. No matter how many Golden Immortals our races send, it will be very difficult for us to really break through the defense line. We can only rely on the daily impact to constantly reduce the strength of the array formation and find a weak spot to break through in one go.
“According to the current situation, there’s a chance of success in another five to six hundred years. However, the human race is also continuously reinforcing the array formation.”
Golden Immortal Ling Guan was a Beast Spirit prodigy. He could not help but snort, “Five to six hundred years… The speed at which that human junior rose and grew shocked all the races. This time, he even obtained a top-notch Great Dao mystic technique. If he’s given time to grow, not to mention you, even I might not be able to suppress him personally!”
Ling Chen frowned and said, “No matter how strong he is, he’s only at the Mahayana Realm. Even if he can resist a True Immortal with many methods, Golden Immortals are on a completely different level from True Immortals. Moreover, the various races have gathered hundreds of Golden Immortals in the sea of stars. As long as we can break through the defense line, that junior won’t be able to escape!”
“Ling Chen, you know nothing about Beast Spirits.” Ling Guan said coldly, “Put away your contempt and arrogance. That junior is a true Beast Spirit. You can’t judge his strength by his cultivation. No wonder you haven’t made any progress in the lower realm for so long. I’ll report to the higher-ups and replace you.”
“You…” Ling Chen was furious. However, the other party was a Beast Spirit genius after all. Be it in terms of strength or background, he could not compare to him. Therefore, even if he was berated by the other party, he did not dare to say anything. “I’m useless. Then, Fellow Daoist Ling Guan, please preside over the defense line!”
He turned around and left. Before he could walk far, he heard a word of trash. This almost broke his defense. In the end, he suppressed his anger. There was no choice. Even if the Beast Spirit genius did not have a background, his status far exceeded his peers, let alone the fact that Ling Guan had a master as an Immortal King.
Actually, it was not only in the Spirit Race. Ever since the appearance of the Myriad Spirit Ranking, the situation in the various races was similar. The Beast Spirit geniuses had noble statuses, and some prodigies were even more arrogant and domineering. Ling Guan’s attitude was already considered good.
!!..
The Demon Race, Devil Clan, Flame Race, and the other three races also sent Golden Immortal-level Beast Spirit geniuses one after another. They also gave them powerful immortal treasures, determined to break through the human defense line as soon as possible.
The 16 Immortal Venerables of the human race were gathered at the Misty Peak. The other Immortal Venerables first congratulated the three Immortal Venerables of Nanji, Yao, and Yu before discussing the Great Dao secret technique with them in a low voice.
Soon, this matter was publicly discussed by the clan.
Some Immortal Venerables proposed to put all the Great Dao secret techniques they had obtained this time into the clan’s treasure vault and then give them to the six Immortal Venerables according to the contributions of the clan. This way, all the Immortal Venerables could cultivate the Great Dao secret technique and strengthen the foundation of the clan.
There were many who agreed. Even the other Immortal Venerables who had a good relationship with Nanji and the other Immortal Venerables agreed.
Although ordinary Great Dao secret techniques led straight to the peak of the Great Dao, it was still relatively difficult to rely on them to break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm. However, they could use secret techniques to reference and verify themselves. In time, the chances of breaking through to the Venerable Sovereign realm would increase. Therefore, the other ten Immortal Venerables who were not qualified to enter the palace agreed on this point.
The six Immortal Venerables, Qi, Yao, Yu, Bing, Yu, and Nanji, did not say anything. Their expressions were calm, but they knew in their hearts that the other Immortal Venerables must have secretly discussed it, but this matter had pros and cons for them.
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong glanced at the six Immortal Venerables and looked at Immortal Venerable Bing and Immortal Venerable Yue. “What do the two of you think of this suggestion?”
Two of the four ordinary Great Dao secret techniques were obtained by the two of them on the stone bridge with their comprehension. To a certain extent, the secret technique belonged to them, and the remaining two were jointly owned by the six of them.
Of course, the two Immortal Venerables could not agree. What a joke. They had painstakingly comprehended the stone bridge diagram and obtained the secret technique, so how could they be willing to share it with the other Immortal Venerables? However, they could not say such words in public. If it was before the appearance of the Myriad Spirit Ranking, they would not have any reservations and would reject it without hesitation.
But it was different now.
The Myriad Spirit Ranking allowed every higher-up of the race to have cohesion, at least on the surface. After all, if there was internal strife, it would only cause the race to continuously decline. Therefore, no matter how selfish and lonesome the Immortal Venerables were, they had to consider the overall situation of the race.
“We will listen to the Venerable Sovereign’s instructions.” The two Immortal Venerables said respectfully.
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong looked at Nanji again. He actually knew very well that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Half of these Immortal Venerables’ goals were for top-notch Great Dao secret techniques. This was because if the six Immortal Venerables were willing to contribute ordinary Great Dao secret techniques, Shen Ping had no reason to refuse. Nanji and the others also understood this and chose to remain silent.
He understood very well. After all, at the level of Immortal Venerable and Venerable Sovereign, pursuing the Great Dao to break through was everything. Top-notch Great Dao secret techniques were a chance.
If not for that Supreme Spirit Nine Heavenly River, he would definitely obey the majority. Of course, if Shen Ping was unwilling, he would not force him. However, the other Immortal Venerables would definitely feel uncomfortable.
There was a moment of silence.
Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong slowly said, “I want to take Shen Ping in as an in-name disciple. When he breaks through to the True Immortal realm and ascends, he can officially become my personal disciple.. What do you think?”
