Chapter 553: Tough (1)

The further one comprehended the Beast Scripture, the more obvious the difference would be. It could not be seen that much from the beast form and beast skin, but once one crossed the beast bone, the difference between the pattern, horn, hoof, and tail of the four small levels would be huge. Similarly, the difficulty of comprehending would increase exponentially. For example, the difficulty between the beast bone’s hoof and whip tail was almost equivalent to comprehending the Beast Scripture from the beginning to the end.
That was why Lian Xuejin said that it was very difficult for Shen Ping to squeeze into the top 20. Even though she knew that Shen Ping had a talisman array divine power, the competition for the Beast Spirit Ranking could not be made up for by relying on talisman arrays.
However, Shen Ping did not mind. He smiled and said, “Master, even if I enter the top 20, it will only be an additional reward of one Beast Pattern Golden Fruit. As for the top 10,000, I’m still very confident.”
Lian Xuejin wanted to say that the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit was very precious, but she swallowed her words. She knew that her disciple definitely had excess Beast Pattern Golden Fruits in his hands.
“Yes, as long as you can enter the top ten thousand, the rest won’t affect you much.” Lian Xuejin pondered and said, “However, disciple, you can’t be careless because of this. The Venerable Sovereign told me that the appearance of the Realm Sea Peak Palace last time meant that the Beast Spirit Ranking is definitely not as simple as it looks. Although its reward is only the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit and the opportunity to comprehend it for the time being, no one can predict what changes it will undergo. Regardless of what sort of changes occur, ranking is the most important.”
Shen Ping’s expression immediately became more serious. The Venerable Sovereign’s words were indeed very reasonable. The reward for the first Beast Spirit Ranking was actually very ordinary compared to the treasures exchanged for when the palaces appeared. However, the Realm Sea Peak had a large number of palaces. Perhaps there were special rules for the rankings inside. “I will do my best to break through the rankings!”
Lian Xuejin nodded and said hesitantly, “Disciple, do you have any beast blood spirit liquid?”
Shen Ping was silent for a moment. “Master, the Beast Blood Heavenly Spirit Liquid is different from the Beast Pattern Golden Fruit. It can promote the purity of the strange beast blood in the body of a Beast Spirit genius and increase one’s comprehension of the Beast Scripture. No one despises too much of such a treasure. I indeed have it in my hands, but I still have to use it. Moreover, I plan to nurture my children into Beast Spirit geniuses.”
Lian Xuejin understood. She sighed softly and said, “How can I not know? It’s just that the seniors of my clan’s immortal Dao personally came forward to nurture those eight outstanding juniors. Forget it, I’ll reject them tactfully.” Shen Ping said, “Thank you for your understanding, Master.”
The Beast Pattern Golden Fruit was very important to the race. It concerned the ranking of the race on the Myriad Spirit Ranking. He could give or trade it, but the Beast Blood Heavenly Spirit Liquid was different. This thing was purely a resource. Even if it was a trade, he would not take it out.
It was not that he did not understand the righteousness, but this kind of opening could not be opened. Once it was opened, as long as he had treasures in the future, the higher-ups of the race would want him to take them out to trade. At that time, what should he do? If it was a rare resource, he would not be able to use it even if he took it out.
Therefore, he had to be tough on this matter. Lian Xuejin also knew this, so she did not continue.
The exchange ended. He went all the way to the pavilion by the lake.
“Father.” Just as he appeared, a cute figure ran over from the pavilion.
“Yi’er.” Shen Ping picked up his daughter in front of him and pinched her chubby face. He smiled and said, “Have you eaten secretly again in the past hundred years? Even your mother can’t control you.”
Shen Yi, his third daughter was born by Luo Qing. Among his children, he liked this third daughter the most. It was mainly because she was the most clingy to him. Although the other daughters were also very obedient and sensible, they were too sensible. Every time they saw him, they would be obedient.
“Father, Yi’er didn’t eat so much. Hmph.” Shen Yi pouted her red lips. She did not look like a hundred-year-old female cultivator at all. Instead, she looked like a child. This was her personality, and she had a childish aura.
Moreover, this girl’s appearance was a little youthful. Coupled with the fact that she had the ability to retain her looks, it was impossible to tell that she was more than a hundred years old.
They arrived at the pavilion. The other children bowed. “Greetings, Father.” Shen Ping sat down and glanced at it. “Where’s An’er?”
His wife, Wang Yun, said, “He went to the Black Fiend Valley. Recently, the Black Fiend Valley has not been very peaceful. The demons are causing a commotion. He can follow and experience it.”
Shen Ping nodded. Ever since the incident at the Seven Butterfly Sound Valley, his son had become much more well-behaved. Although he did not know if it was intentional, he was much more sensible on the surface. A hundred years ago, he had asked An Zhiyuan and Jing Yan to arrange for him to work in the pavilion and let him train.
“Husband, this is the Blue Flame Cloud Fire Tea Yong’er brought from the Flame Cloud Area. It tastes very good. Try it.” Bai Yuying handed over the teacup and said.
Among the many wives and concubines, she was the most lively and delicate. However, ever since she had a son, she had become much more mature. Be it her daily clothes or her actions, she had become dignified and generous, with the temperament of a mature woman. In fact, it was not only her, but also Wang Yun and Mu Jin.
During the tea tasting, Shen Ping also sized up the cultivation realms of his children. In more than a hundred years, the highest cultivation realm among them was already at the late-stage of the Golden Core realm. The others had also reached the Golden Core realm. This cultivation speed was indeed very fast, but under the nurturing of a large number of precious resources in the True Treasure Pavilion, it was too normal to have such speed.
The only pity was that other than the eldest son, Shen An, the rest did not give birth to the bloodline of a strange beast..
