Chapter 394 Shen Ping's Advantages
The Immortals have been practicing for a long time and have extremely rich experience. Most of them have encountered similar imitation abilities, but none of them are as strange and exquisite as the golden purple bugs. There are ways to see through this kind of imitation, but the prerequisite is to know more information about the golden purple bugs.
But this is what they lack.
So when Shen Ping made the suggestion, the high-ranking immortals such as Nan Ji Xianzun, Qi Xianzun and others all looked over.
"Although the appearance and aura of these insects are very lifelike, I don't believe that they can even imitate memories. I believe that you all have some common memories, and you should be able to quickly distinguish them based on this."
This is the easiest solution that comes to mind.
The immortals all nodded.
Shen Ping smiled and said, "The junior will go first."
The reason why he did this was, firstly, that he did not want to expose his methods too early, and secondly, he wanted to see how strong the imitation ability of these golden purple insects was.
"Before entering the Gate of Strange Beasts, I once talked to Master about my wife, concubines and Taoist companions. How about you and I use magic power to engrave these words on a jade slip, and then take it out for other seniors to see, and then Master will identify it?"
Shen Ping, disguised as a golden purple bug, smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Lian Xuejin watched this scene. She knew that Shen Ping was deceiving the other party. The two of them had never discussed such topics.
After a few breaths.
The engraved jade slip was suspended in the air.
As the fluorescence on the jade slips disappeared, both jade slips showed no words.
Shen Ping's pupils shrank slightly.
The other Immortal Lords all looked solemn upon seeing this. Even if the golden-purple bug could steal memories, when using its magic power to engrave them, it was impossible for it to engrave without a single word like the real Shen Ping.
This shows that the golden-purple bug on the stone plate should have some means to guess or see what the real Shen Ping is thinking and doing.
"It seems that relying on memory won't work. Shen Ping, do you have any unique magical powers or other means that you can show off?"
Qi Xianzun reminded.
Shen Ping hummed, "I have a magical power that can combine talismans and formations."
As he spoke, he took out hundreds of ordinary talismans and then used the magical power of the Sea of Talisman Light.
The eyes of the other immortals lit up slightly.
"It's a pretty good magical skill."
At this time, the golden-purple insect also took out the talisman and performed the same magical power.
"He can even imitate a unique magical power!"
Now all the Immortal Lords felt that this was a difficult situation.
Nanji Xianzun seemed to have thought of something and said hurriedly: "Shen Ping, try the method of the Beast Sutra."
Shen Ping suddenly realized what was happening, took out the Hunyuan Spear and directly unleashed the first level of power, blood.
The disguised golden-purple insect also took out the Hunyuan Gun, but the bloody power it unleashed was obviously different from the one Shen Ping used.
See this scene.
Nanji Xianzun, Qi Xianzun and others all laughed, "Haha, it turns out that this bug can't use the power of the beast scripture, it can only imitate!"
The power of the Beast Sutra needs to be integrated with the artistic conception of the strange beast. Even though the golden-purple insect can imitate the power with its unique energy, the artistic conception inside is difficult to display. Naturally, the power that is finally presented is completely different.
And everyone present here is a beast spirit genius, and they can easily tell them apart by using the beast spirit treasure.
Poof! Shen Ping doesn't need to do anything.
The immortals directly killed the golden-purple bugs.
This made Shen Ping frightened. Although these immortals only had golden elixir power at present, the means they could use were much more powerful.
Nanji Xianzun smiled and said, "You can use the immortal weapon on this stone plate, otherwise you really can't kill this bug. Okay, it's my turn next."
Before he even started, the disguised Antarctic Immortal suddenly rushed towards the cushion, and at the same time the other golden and purple insects also rushed over.
"Humph, I've been on guard against you guys for a long time!"
“Die!”
A dazzling purple knife light suddenly appeared, and immediately all these disguised golden purple insects turned into balls of light, and the light balls contained the essence of beast blood. Each golden purple insect contributed three beast blood essences.
Solved the bugs.
Shen Ping and the other immortals all smiled with relief.
"This bug is indeed difficult to deal with, but now it seems that its flaws are also very obvious. In fact, even without the Beast Manual, we can still tell it apart."
Immortal Venerable Qi, Immortal Venerable Yao and others knew what Immortal Venerable Nan Ji was talking about. They were all immortal venerables and naturally understood the great principles of heaven and earth. This kind of method could not be performed by imitation.
"Tsk tsk, although these bugs are a bit difficult to deal with, they contribute a lot of animal blood essence. For us, the more the better!"
The Ice Immortal said jokingly.
The other immortals all laughed, and then they told each other about their experiences in the dilapidated wooden house and the stone city. Shen Ping also told them. After comparing with each other, the immortals understood the advantages of being ranked high.
"In this case, the higher the ranking, the faster the mana recovery, and the more items in the storage can be used, the easier the test is. However, for us immortals who are at the bottom, the restrictions are not small. Shen Ping, since the stone plate has gathered all the beast spirit geniuses of the same race together, I am afraid that the subsequent tests should be faced together. You have the advantage, and we immortals still have to rely on you."
The Antarctic Immortal said.
The other immortals nodded one after another.
Shen Ping was humble for a while and then quickly changed the subject.
While chatting with each other, they all sat cross-legged on the cushions. After waiting for a while, the cushions were covered with the glow of light again, and then everyone disappeared.
After the vision was restored.
Shen Ping, the other immortals, his master, Lin Yu and others stood on a piece of yellow sand. Sand dunes were all around them. The air was dry and hot, and there was no end in sight.
Tsk tsk.
Before they had time to investigate carefully, a large number of gerbil-like creatures emerged from the sand dunes and came from all directions. These gerbils were not strong, and Shen Ping and the Immortals were able to easily deal with them. However, as soon as they were dealt with, another group came, and their aura was significantly stronger.
Four waves were eliminated in a row.
The gerbil's strength has reached the fusion level.
"Something's wrong."
"These creatures are endless and are completely draining our mana."
"It's probably a formation, Immortal Master Yao, you are proficient in formations, can you tell what kind of formation this is?"
The Immortal Lords spoke one after another.
Yao Xianzun frowned, "If it was a formation, I would have discovered it as soon as we came in, but there is not even a trace of a formation around here."
At this time Shen Ping couldn't help but open the Eye of Sea Beast to check. He found that a large number of sand rats had no energy aura at all, nor did the yellow sand. There was only one energy source.
"Senior Yao, could this be an illusion?"
Yao Xianzun was startled. “The illusion array can indeed have an impact silently, and it is extremely difficult to detect. But if it is an illusion array, since it can affect us Xianzun, then the impact on you younger generations will be even greater. Even a simple illusion impact can cause your consciousness to collapse…”
Qi Xianzun reminded: "Fellow Daoist Yao, this is a palace world. If it is an illusion array, it should target different strengths and weaknesses."
Yao Xianzun understood and immediately looked at Shen Ping, "Do you have the Magic Heart Liquid or the Purple Flower Root in your storage magic weapon..."
"have."
These materials were considered high-grade resources, and he basically had backups of them in his storage space, so he took out the materials immediately.
Immortal Master Yao used the materials to quickly refine a pill that could resist the illusion array. After taking it, the yellow sand environment in front of them suddenly disappeared, revealing a huge spider-like creature. When it saw that its illusion array was broken, it opened its bloody mouth and spit out a large amount of spider silk.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Spider silk is extremely fast.
Everyone, including Shen Ping, found it difficult to dodge, and even the magic weapons in their hands were unable to cut the spider silk.
"Use fire magic!"
Yao Xianzun gave a reminder.
Shen Ping quickly took out a high-level beast spirit treasure with fire attribute, and indeed easily cut the spider silk. Then he helped the other immortals escape and rushed directly towards the spider. The spider itself was not very strong and was quickly dealt with by Shen Ping.
However, the spider did not turn into a ball of light like the previous golden-purple bugs. Seeing this, his expression changed slightly. He collected the spider and prepared to use the soul-stuffing method. This spider possessed such a powerful illusion array ability. If the soul-stuffed spider could become his own clone, then he would have another powerful method.
The other immortals didn't say anything when they saw Shen Ping put away the spider corpse.
"Here is a jade plate and a route map."
Lian Xuejin made a discovery not far away. Antarctic Immortal Venerable, Yao Immortal Venerable and others checked and found that the jade plate was nothing special, but since it appeared with the route map, it should be useful. After putting it away, they continued to move forward along the route map.
Arrived at the second target point.
The group encountered spiders again, but with the elixir refined by Immortal Master Yao, they were not greatly affected. There was a jade plate next to each spider. Until the eighth target point, after killing the spiders, they did not see the jade plate and route map, nor did the portal appear like before.
Shen Ping subconsciously used the Eyes of Sea Beasts to check, and was immediately shocked when he saw that the Antarctic Immortal Venerable, Yao Immortal Venerable and others around him all had the energy aura of golden purple insects.
Puff, puff, puff! He used the Hunyuan Gun to get rid of these bugs. With the talent of the Sea Beast's Eye, he locked onto the biggest source of energy.
Tsk tsk.
Before he got close, golden spider silk shot out from all directions. He kept teleporting and finally managed to avoid being entangled by the spider silk. He could use his fire-attributed beast spirit treasure to attack the spider silk, but he couldn't cut it as easily as before.
Think of the Animal Scripture.
He immediately entered the state of beast spirit, and scales and keratin appeared on the surface of his body. He then used the second form of power of the Hunyuan Spear, but it was still difficult to cut the spider silk.
"what to do?!"
In a hurry, he suddenly thought of the beast spirit who had come into contact with the essential fluctuations of the Great Dao, so he hurriedly activated that fluctuation and attached it to the Hunyuan Spear. Although his understanding of the fluctuation was only superficial, even that was enough to easily destroy the golden spider silk.
Then he attacked the source of the energy.
Puff! With just a few attacks, the source was easily eliminated. As the magic array disappeared, Shen Ping took a closer look and found that it was actually a golden purple spider-like creature. At the same time, the golden purple insect disguises beside the other immortals all disappeared.
"Could it be that this golden purple spider has the ability to perform both illusion and mimicry?"
Although he was frightened, a look of joy appeared in his eyes. This corpse was much stronger than the previous spider, so he put it away immediately.
When the other immortals saw that the people around them had disappeared, they came to their senses and realized that they had been pulled into the illusion array again.
"What a powerful illusion array."
Yao Xianzun couldn't help but said, "Shen Ping, if you hadn't solved the source, I'm afraid all of us would have been eliminated."
Shen Ping hurriedly shook his head and said, "Senior Yao, I just discovered it by luck, and even if we don't get rid of this golden purple spider creature, after a long time, the seniors will also notice it."
He is right.
With the vigilance of the immortals, and the teleportation from the previous two worlds to the eighth target point, they will definitely realize that something is wrong. Of course, whether they can avoid being eliminated depends entirely on their luck.
Not far from the golden purple spider is a ball of light.
Inside the ball of light were three jade plates and twenty beast blood essences. After putting these things away, a purple portal appeared in front of them.
Enter the portal.
Layers of light patterns immediately appeared on the surfaces of the ten jade plates, and these light patterns converged into a road map.
"If I am not mistaken, the target point marked on the route map should be the location of the secret method."
The Antarctic Immortal said slowly.
Hearing this.
The others' expressions changed slightly.
Qi Xianzun smiled faintly and said, "If it is really a secret method, Shen Ping should be given priority. If Shen Ping is not on the previous level, I am afraid that we will not be able to pass it at all, and the possibility of being eliminated is very high."
Bing Xianzun shook his head. "That being said, the fifty-two secret techniques are all great secret techniques and are extremely precious. Moreover, Yao Xianzun has made a lot of efforts on the previous level. Without her elixir, how can we get out of the illusion array?!"
Shen Ping's face was calm, but he felt speechless in his heart. They hadn't even seen the secret method yet, but they were already discussing who would own it. As expected, when there were many people, there would be many ideas, and disagreements would easily arise. This was also the reason why he seldom took risks and explored in his practice. After all, no matter how good the friends were, they would have disagreements when faced with interests, and might even kill each other.
Yu Xianzun glanced at Nanji Xianzun and others, and said: "Everyone, isn't it too early to discuss the secret method now? I think we should get the secret method first and then discuss other things."
"Friend Yu is absolutely right."
"I don't know what the test is on this level. Although my mana has now recovered to the level of refining emptiness, I still can't take out the immortal artifacts and other items. When I encounter difficulties, I still have to rely on Shen Ping."
The Immortal Lord of the South Pole said with a hint of meaning.
Yao Xianzun smiled and said, "Indeed, no matter what the situation is, Shen Ping should obtain the secret method."
Lian Xuejin and Lin Yu were weak and had no say at all, but the group did not go on after discussing this and headed in the direction of the route map.
…
With Shen Ping's help, no beast spirit genius of the human race was eliminated in the third level of the world, but it was different for other races. The yellow sand alone trapped many beast spirit geniuses from different races. Only the top 100 geniuses would suffer from the gradually weakening illusion array as time went by. Therefore, the number of beast spirit geniuses of various races eliminated in the third level increased again.
