Chapter 968: I’m No longer the Same as Before (2)
Editor: Henyee Translations

“Shen Ping, I was just talking to Fellow Daoist Yao about you. I heard from your wife and concubines that you went out?” Immortal Venerable Luan said.

Shen Ping sat beside the two Immortal Venerables and nodded. “I went out for a while and just came back, so I came to visit Immortal Venerable Yao.”

He did not plan to reveal the news of killing the expert from the outer realm. First of all, it would be very clear and easy to expose his strength and trump cards. Although he believed in the two Immortal Venerables, there was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. In the future, when facing stronger outer realm creatures, he had to be careful.

They chatted briefly before the topic turned to the foreign race battlefield.

“My Phoenix Clan has already sent ten Immortal Kings and more than thirty peerless Immortals over. The experts from the Dragon Clan are also rushing over. The other Immortal Venerables and Immortal Kings who are vassals of the human race will reinforce one after another. Even if the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and the others want to attack the Northern Ice Immortal City, it will definitely be difficult to break through! It’s just that the Venerable Sovereign has to step in.”

Immortal Venerable Luan said worriedly, “The news of Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s injury has long spread. If it continues for a long time, it will probably be very difficult to withstand the attacks of the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and other races.”

This was the truth. Although the dragon and phoenix races were on good terms with the human race, that was based on the fact that Venerable Tian Hong was strong. If Venerable Tian Hong did not appear, it was obvious that he would be injured. At that time, the Venerable Sovereigns of the dragon and phoenix races would also have ulterior motives.

After all, if they were not of the same race, their hearts would definitely be different. Not to mention those vassals of the human race.

Shen Ping looked at Immortal Venerable Yao and asked, “Senior Yao, I wonder how my master’s injuries are?”

Immortal Venerable Yao frowned. This matter concerned the survival of the human race. How could he ask in public? Although Immortal Venerable Luan had a good relationship with her, she was still from the Phoenix Clan.

“Immortal Venerable Luan is not an outsider,” Shen Ping said.

Immortal Venerable Luan blushed and stood up, “Fellow Daoist Yao, I’m going out for a walk.”

“It’s fine.” Shen Ping reached out to stop her. “Senior Yao, the reason why the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and the other races have sent reinforcements is none other than to see that our human race is about to weaken. If a new Venerable Sovereign appears, the problem will naturally be resolved.”

Immortal Venerable Yao frowned. “Shen Ping, it’s so difficult to break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm. Currently, there are only two or three people in our human race who have the most hope. But even I don’t have the slightest confidence in breaking through to the Venerable Sovereign realm!”

She was still half a step away from comprehending the great dao of heaven and earth, but this half could still trap her for a million years. This period included the effect of the Realm Sea Peak palace. Otherwise, it would be difficult to break through in tens of millions of years.

The entire human race had reproduced for countless years. From the ancient era until now, there had been dozens of Dao eras, but only three Venerable Sovereigns had been born.

Shen Ping did not say anything. He clenched his fist and casually threw it at the pool. Immediately, the force of his fist communicated with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and quickly condensed into a fist mark. The pool exploded, but the water droplets that splashed froze in midair.

Immortal Venerable Yao and Immortal Venerable Luan’s pupils immediately constricted. As Immortal Venerables, they naturally could tell that this punch was definitely the power of the entire Great Dao and could be controlled freely.

“You, you broke through to the Venerable Sovereign Realm? No, your immortal body is still at the Immortal King Realm and hasn’t reached the Dao Body Realm. In that case, you comprehended a complete Heaven and Earth Great Dao?” Immortal Venerable Yao said earnestly.

Shen Ping smiled and nodded. “That’s right.”

Immortal Venerable Luan and Immortal Venerable Yao looked at each other and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. They knew that Shen Ping was very monstrous and had the fastest cultivation in history. Moreover, he was talented in the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. However, they never expected him to comprehend a complete Heaven and Earth Great Dao so quickly. Even the most ordinary Heaven and Earth Great Dao was very difficult to comprehend, especially at the last 10% or even 5%. His speed was even slower than a turtle.

The various difficulties that had accumulated previously would also form obstacles, so most Immortal Venerables would eventually be stuck at this step.

“Fellow Daoist Shen, your talent is truly unparalleled, rarely seen since ancient times!” Immortal Venerable Luan’s tone carried a trace of shock and admiration.

Immortal Venerable Yao bit her red lips. “Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Shen, on becoming a Venerable Sovereign.”

After comprehending the complete Heaven and Earth Great Dao, as long as one was willing, they could easily rely on this Great Dao to form a Dao Body and break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm. From then on, they would stand at the peak of the Immortal Dao territory.

Although the most ordinary combat strength was not much, there were only a hundred Venerable Sovereigns in the Immortal Dao territory. There were only ten or so who were truly stronger than ordinary Venerable Sovereigns.

Moreover, after becoming a Venerable Sovereign and combining it with a Great Dao treasure, Shen Ping would be invincible. No one in the world could kill Shen Ping and be free.

Shen Ping shook his head, “I’m not a Venerable Sovereign yet, and I don’t plan to rely on ordinary Heaven and Earth Great Dao to become a Venerable Sovereign. As you know, I walk the path of the top Heaven and Earth Great Dao.”

Immortal Venerable Yao couldn’t help but feel admiration. If it were anyone else, after comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, they would choose to become a Venerable Sovereign and slowly improve in the future. Although it would be even more difficult, they were still Venerable Sovereigns. However, Shen Ping didn’t want to do this. Not everyone had such perseverance.

Immortal Venerable Luan said, “No matter what, Fellow Daoist Shen has the combat strength of a Venerable Sovereign. You also have the Great Dao treasure armor, which is enough to contend with other Venerable Sovereigns. Now, the matter of the Northern Ice Immortal City can be resolved.”

Shen Ping smiled and said, “Yes, the trouble in the Northern Ice Immortal City is easy to resolve, but my master’s injuries… Immortal Venerable Yao, you can tell me now, right?”

Immortal Venerable Yao didn’t hide anything anymore. With Shen Ping’s Venerable Sovereign combat strength, even if the Devil Clan and the Spirit Race knew, they wouldn’t casually attack the Northern Ice Immortal City. After all, they couldn’t get rid of Shen Ping, so they had to worry about a Venerable Sovereign taking revenge at all costs.

“Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s injuries are very serious. He can only attack a few times in ten thousand years. After ten thousand years, he will fall from the Venerable Sovereign realm.”

When Immortal Venerable Luan heard this, her expression was solemn, “I didn’t expect the human Venerable Sovereign to be so heavily injured. That expert from the outer realm is really powerful.”

“That’s right. Experts from the outer realm are indeed a huge hidden danger. Unfortunately, the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, and the other races don’t know the big picture and take advantage of the situation!” Immortal Venerable Yao gritted her teeth.

Shen Ping understood in his heart, so he said, “Immortal Venerable Yao, I actually came to visit this time for Master’s injuries. I have a way to treat Master’s injuries, but I need to leave the realm!”

Immortal Venerable Yao was stunned. “You have a way? What way? It’s not that I don’t believe you, but the treasury of our human race doesn’t have any treasures to treat injuries. Although you cultivate quickly and comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, that kind of rare treasure isn’t something you can find in a short time.”

Shen Ping explained briefly and only said that it was Realm Sea Peak. Only then did Immortal Venerable Yao believe him a little. “The deeper you go into the Realm Sea, the more dangerous it is. Even if you have a detailed star map, it’s too risky.”

Shen Ping said, “That’s why I want to invite Immortal Venerable Yao along. Of course, since Immortal Venerable Luan is also there, let’s go together.”

Immortal Venerable Luan exclaimed and was about to refuse, but when she thought about how he had already told such a secret, she was afraid that Shen Ping would not let her off if she refused. She hurriedly said, “Fellow Daoist Shen, I’m willing to go.”

Immortal Venerable Yao hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. She also wanted to see what the scenery outside the realm was. Perhaps she could find an opportunity to break through to the Venerable Sovereign realm.

“Since that’s the case, let’s set off in half a month!”

“Okay.”

Half a month was enough for Shen Ping to settle the Northern Ice Immortal City. Two days later outside the Devil Clan’s border Immortal City.

“Bastards of the Devil Clan, come out!”

His voice reverberated like thunder. Streams of powerful Immortal King aura surged. In just a few breaths, more than twelve Immortal Kings flashed out of the Devil Clan’s Immortal City.

Looking at these Immortal Kings, Shen Ping’s expression was calm. When he was weak, he had always been cautious. Now that he already had the combat strength of a Venerable Sovereign and had a late-stage Initial Dao Stage puppet, even if he lost an ordinary Dao Body, he still had mid-stage combat strength. He naturally did not need to keep a low profile and hide his strength.

“In the entire Immortal Dao Domain, only a few Venerable Sovereigns like the Spirit Race and the Devil Clan can fight me!”

Under the Heavenly Star Armor, his aura was majestic and dazzling like a star, making all Immortal Kings not dare look directly at him.

“It’s, it’s Shen Ping from the human race!”

“It’s him!”

“How could a genius like him dare to appear here?”
