Chapter 314: Evil Intentions

Lian Xuejin's voice was filled with apology. She always put the human race first, and the beast pattern golden fruit was of great importance. If it were her, she would not hesitate to sacrifice her life for it. But Shen Ping was different. In addition to being a human, he was also her direct disciple. Moreover, over the years, the two of them communicated almost every day, especially when Shen Ping entered the Ascension Palace, she was on the side giving advice. Therefore, in addition to the master-disciple relationship, the two of them also had a layer of trust that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

So deep down inside.

Lian Xuejin doesn't want Shen Ping to be in danger.

After conveying the words of the human leaders that day, she couldn't help but worry. This worry became more and more intense as time went on, and even made her mind a little unstable, and she was unable to enter the state of cultivation. This had never happened before.

"Master."

"You don't have to blame yourself. Even if you didn't tell me, I would have done it. Besides, I'm fine now!"

Shen Ping smiled, then changed the subject and asked, "How should we hand over the beast pattern golden fruit to the immortal elders of the human race?"

He had no intention of taking the golden fruit with beast patterns for himself. On the one hand, this thing was of no use to him at the moment. Even if he left it to his wife, concubines and Taoist companions, it would not make much sense because the underground palace was too dangerous. He would not let his wife, concubines and Taoist companions take risks until he had enough strength to protect them.

Therefore, it is the best choice to hand it over to the immortal seniors of the human race.

Lian Xuejin quickly replied, "If you leave the underground palace and find a remote area, then use your magic power to infuse the beast pattern golden fruit, it will emit a special aura. This aura can be sensed immediately by our immortal predecessors, and then the predecessors can use some great means to move the beast pattern golden fruit away."

Shen Ping nodded.

Immediately follow the master's instructions.

He first left the underground palace, then activated the strange beast's talent to teleport quickly away from Jianyin City, and came to a remote valley, where he spread the news through the dazzling crystals.

Received Master’s response.

He mobilized the power of the strange beast in his dantian and infused it into the golden fruit.

Tsk tsk.

Suddenly, a strange smell emanated.

And almost instantly.

A crack and vortex appeared in the space beside Shen Ping. Before he could react, the golden fruit with beast pattern flew directly into the vortex.

The emperors of powerful tribes such as the demon tribe, spirit tribe, and monster tribe also sensed it, but no matter how they acted, they were still a step too slow. They could only watch as the golden fruit with beast patterns passed through a special space channel to reach the core territory of the human race.

Not long.

Lian Xuejin's voice came out again through the brilliant crystal stone, "Disciple, my human immortal senior has already received the beast pattern golden fruit. You have made great contributions to the human race. I have told you about this matter. After I lead you to a place where immortals prosper, I will give you a reward."

Shen Ping's eyebrows moved, "What reward?"

Lian Xuejin smiled and said, "What reward do you want, disciple?"

"Hehe, I don't ask for much, just give me a few immortal treasures that are similar to the treasures of the human race."

"Don't joke. I don't know the specific reward, but it will definitely be high. Well, you should focus on your cultivation. Now that my race has obtained the golden fruit with beast patterns, the attention of other races to you will be reduced. Of course, you can't be careless."

"That immortal senior said that other tribes are very concerned about the means to conceal the beast-patterned golden fruit. They may increase their efforts to search for you, but the attention of the top leaders of each tribe will be diverted."

Shen Ping nodded seriously and said, "Master, I understand."

Anyway.

It was a good thing that the leaders of various tribes paid less attention to him. After all, if he really provoked the top immortal masters to take action, then even if he had many talents of strange beasts, it would be useless.

…

Three days later.

Jianyin City, a private room on the second floor of Zhenbao Pavilion.

Shen Ping once again saw Fairy Luo Xia, a powerful cultivator who had reached the pinnacle of the realm of emptiness, with a face that looked as young as that of a young girl and fair and translucent skin. Her aura was mellower than last time, and as she sat upright on the chair, she gave people a sense of natural beauty.

"Congratulations, Senior Yue, you are one step closer to immortality."

He said with a smile as he drank a sip of spiritual tea.

Fairy Luo Xia curled her lips and said, "It's just that my consciousness has become stronger and my magic power has become more solid. This is all thanks to Pavilion Master Shen's spiritual treasure."

Noticed Shen Ping's eyes that seemed to penetrate his body.

Her legs couldn't help but straighten, and the dress made her hips look tighter.

"During this period, my disciples from Luo Xiafeng have been carrying out missions in the Zhenbao Pavilion's caravans one after another. They have been working well together. The trade routes to the dozen or so gathering places of various ethnic groups around Jianyin City have basically been opened up. At the same time, five branch pavilions have been established... However, there are still a few cultivators under Pavilion Master Shen who can take charge."

Fairy Luo Xia pondered and said, "Jianyin City is not Graystone City. If you want to be in charge of a branch pavilion, you must have at least the late stage of the Spiritualization Realm. Although I, Luo Xiafeng, have some, you should know that on the surface, it is impossible for me, Luo Xiafeng, to join the True Treasure Pavilion."

Shen Ping certainly knew this, but he didn't have any better solution at the moment. After all, it was not easy to recruit cultivators in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Although the Zhenbao Pavilion had a lot of resources, each of them was very cunning and would not easily reveal their attitude before getting any benefits.

But he didn't care too much.

After all, the main purpose of establishing and expanding the Zhenbao Pavilion is to collect intelligence so that we can deal with emergencies.

"Don't worry, Zhenbao Pavilion can develop slowly. What's important is the trade channel in Penglai Immortal City. When Senior Yue breaks through to the fusion state, this aspect will be handed over to you."

Hearing this.

Fairy Luo Xia's expression slightly changed, and she couldn't help but say: "The spiritual treasure resources for breakthrough fusion are very scarce, even in Penglai Fairy City. If Pavilion Master Shen can really supply enough, this fairy will definitely help Pavilion Master open up a trade route."

Speaking of.

She leaned forward slightly.

The tight round curves seemed to be about to burst out, and she said in a suppressed voice: "Besides, this fairy has already sworn allegiance to the Pavilion Master, so naturally I will allow the Pavilion Master to dispatch me."

Shen Ping's eyes slowly followed the curve and when they landed on the curved converging point, he seemed to hear slightly heavier breathing. However, when he was about to continue viewing, he found that his vision was empty. When he came back to his senses, Fairy Luo Xia was already standing beside him, and the fragrance of the wind rushed into his nostrils.

"Master, do you have anything else to do?"

The breath from her lips hit my face.

Shen Ping suppressed the urge to tear open the layers of defense on the surface and shook his head.

"In that case, I will take my leave, Fairy."

Fairy Luo Xia left not long ago.

An Zhi walked in and briefly reported on the Greystone City, Black Evil City and the sudden changes in the branch offices. As she took charge of more branch affairs, her slightly charming temperament gradually took on the flavor of a business president in her previous life.

Especially her tall and slender legs, which made Shen Ping couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

I remembered the scenery I saw with the Eyes of the Sea Beast last time.

The blood of the strange beast that had been suppressed with great difficulty began to boil again.

"Friend An, judging from your aura, I think you are not far from the opportunity to achieve a Nascent Soul breakthrough. For the time being, let Huilan and her brother take care of the affairs of the pavilion."

He said this more than once.

But the effect was minimal.

It seemed that An Zhi liked the feeling of being in charge of affairs deep down.

"Master, rest assured. The Nascent Soul breakthrough is of great importance. I will not delay it."

After saying.

After she bowed, she turned and walked out of the private room. However, the moment she stepped out of the door, she paused, turned around and said with a charming smile: "If the Pavilion Master likes, I can serve you."

Shen Ping showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, and before he could say anything, An Zhi disappeared.

He shook his head helplessly.

As the beast's talent is used more and more times, the side effects become more and more serious.

If it were before.

Even if he felt that An Zhi was a little attractive, he would definitely not look at her so unscrupulously.

The next half month.

He was dealing with some affairs of Zhenbao Pavilion, just to relax his mind. However, it was not easy for Jing Huilan to receive the favor, and she seemed listless every day.

Until Shen Ping began to meditate in seclusion.

Jing Huilan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

…

Five years passed in the blink of an eye.

Jianyin City is still prosperous, with busy streets and numerous people, and cultivators of all races coming in an endless stream. As the largest cultivation city in the inland of the Black Mist Jedi, the short five years have left no traces of time on it.

In the quiet room in the backyard.

A powerful aura suddenly shook the surroundings under the cover of the formation. When this aura completely dissipated into nothingness, Shen Ping, who was sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

After five years of diligent practice.

Relying on the strange stones obtained efficiently from the third floor of the underground palace, he finally improved his cultivation to the perfect level of transformation.

Just a little bit to enter the realm of refining emptiness.

When he reaches the realm of refining emptiness, not to mention the purity and enhancement of his magic power, just the ability to activate the true form of high-level beast spirit treasures can make Shen Ping's strength soar.

However, although it was only one step away, he knew that it would not be easy to cross.

Stabilize your cultivation.

He stood up, took out the brilliant crystal, sent a message to his master, and then walked out of the quiet room.

When An Zhiyuan heard the news, he quickly came to the backyard hall. He first recounted the important events that had taken place in Jianyin City, Huishi City, Heisha City and other gathering places in recent years.

Shen Ping raised his eyebrows when he heard this. "Another great demon of the Refining Void level has appeared in the demon tribe of Gray Stone City. It seems that this is the trick of the Black Tiger King of Jianyin City."

An Zhiyuan nodded repeatedly, "Pavilion Master's guess is correct. I have specially consulted Senior Yue on this matter. The big monster in Gray Stone City did serve under the Black Tiger King. Although it only lives in Gray Stone City and has not made any other moves, it may make some attempts in the future."

"And according to the information I secretly received, the great demon seemed to be in seclusion for cultivation, but in fact he often visited other tribes' gathering places and even provoked the Graystone City Merchant Alliance many times."

Shen Ping's expression was calm.

The cultivators of various races have always been fighting each other. After all, the resources of the entire Jianyin City and Huishi City are limited. The rapid development of Zhenbao Pavilion in recent years has naturally harmed the interests of certain ethnic groups. If it were not for the supply of rare spiritual treasures and the deterrent power of his strength, the Huishi City Chamber of Commerce would have been disbanded long ago.

"As long as they don't affect the interests of our Zhenbao Pavilion, we don't have to worry about it."

"yes."

After An Zhiyuan replied, he hesitated and said, "Pavilion Master, the storehouse is running low on spiritual treasures, talismans, puppets, and other items."

Shen Ping hummed, "I'll deal with this matter quickly."

These five years.

Yin Ting had been in seclusion and had not traded with him, so naturally the spiritual treasures in stock were insufficient. This was mainly because as the Zhenbao Pavilion's business grew bigger and bigger, consumption was also gradually increasing. Other resources could form a virtuous circle through transportation by caravans, but high-level talismans, puppets, and spiritual treasures above level six would require him to make up for them.

"And Senior Yue has been here a few times before, and it seems like he has important business to attend to."

After An Zhiyuan left.

Shen Ping was not in a hurry to give Fairy Luo Xia any message, but spent a few days with Jing Huilan, and then entered the Gate of Strange Beasts.

He hadn't been to the Dengtian Palace for some time.

laugh.

Strengthening, Eye of the Sea Beast, Teleportation...the three strange beast talents are instantly activated.

In the blink of an eye.

He appeared in the Ascension Palace.

Rest and recovery took ten days.

He activated the enhanced Eye of the Sea Beast once again, seeing through the layers of metal palaces. After landing at the end, there was still no jade box in the metal room.

This made him look a little disappointed.

Leave the Ascension Palace.

Just when I was about to leave.

The communication stone vibrated slightly.

His eyes lit up, and when he opened it, it was indeed Yin Ting's voice.

"My retreat is over. I will stay in the underground palace for the next few days. If you come in, remember to send me a message."

A few days later.

Inside the stone cave covered by the formation.

The purple-blue soft armor and gauze lining were thrown aside casually, and the white wings kept fluttering until the strange smell in the air became strong, and the purple-blue soft armor covered the white feathers.

Yin Ting's fair cheeks were still flushed. She glanced at Shen Ping and whispered, "Fellow Daoist Shen, how did you take the beast-patterned golden fruit?"

Shen Ping pinched her thick and round curves and said with a smile: "Can't hold it in anymore?"

Yin Ting was a little embarrassed. She had actually wanted to ask this question a long time ago, but it was hard to bring up such things. If it weren't for the clan and her master urging her, she would not have chosen to ask when they were both relaxed physically and mentally.

"Of course it was taken away by force."

He said casually.

Yin Ting pressed the issue, "The Yan Clan had nine beast spirit geniuses at the time, including several second-class beast spirit geniuses. They also had immortal tools that could quickly activate the immortal formation... Although you have the beast talisman diagram, even if you have a hundred of them, you can't break the immortal formation."

She is right.

Once the immortal formation is fully activated, even a genius of beast spirit will not be able to break through it in a few breaths.

Shen Ping's success also depended on a certain amount of luck.

"Of course, our human race has some methods that you don't know about."

Hearing this.

Yin Ting was speechless, but she could hear the perfunctory tone in Shen Ping's words, so she didn't ask any more questions. "Thanks to you, my clan and Master pay more attention to me. They want me to get the secret out of you at all costs."

Seeing Yin Ting being so frank.

Shen Ping turned over again and said with a smile: "Friend Yin, haven't you experienced my biggest secret yourself, or are you not satisfied with it?"

A cold voice soon sounded.

"Humph, you rascal, you only know how to take advantage of me... When we first met, I could tell you had ill intentions!"

"I have no ill intentions, but I am armed with a weapon. Tell me now, are you satisfied with my secret?"

"Not...satisfied!"
