Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 577 - 577: Life on the Line (2)



Should he go or not? For the first time, the two of them had a disagreement. Shen Ping planned to go. Since there were changes, it meant that there was definitely beast blood essence in these new secret passageways. However, Yin Ting did not want to go because in her opinion, there was no need to waste time. In any case, they could obtain a lot of beast blood essence if they followed the main passageway to investigate the nearby secret passageways.

More importantly, Yin Ting deduced that the prodigies of the other races would most likely go to the forked path to explore. This way, they would have a chance of encountering them.

“Don’t worry. I’ve grasped the first level of the blood light. Even if I encounter the strongest prodigies in the top ten, I can still survive even if I can’t defeat them. Besides, if I encounter them, I just have to avoid them in advance.’

Seeing Shen Ping say this, Yin Ting could only agree to go to the fork. They immediately changed directions and followed the markings on the map. They walked along a fork on the left. During this period, Shen Ping would use his Pupil of Sea Beast to investigate the nearby secret passages from time to time. Unfortunately, he found nothing. After walking for seven months, the two of them finally arrived at the new secret passage area.

Before Shen Ping could activate his strange beast talent to check, Yin Ting sensed a strange fluctuation as soon as they arrived. “It’s the essence of beast blood! I didn’t expect to be able to clearly sense the beast blood essence in this area.”

Both of them were surprised. Previously, they had relied on Shen Ping’s talent to search for the essence of the beast blood. If they did not have the Pupil of Sea Beast, they would have to explore every secret passage like the prodigies of the other races. Not only was the efficiency low, but it was also very easy to waste time. But the fluctuation of the beast blood essence was very rich here.

Shen Ping hurriedly activated his talent. As expected, there was a large number of insects’ energy aura in a secret passage in front of him. It was a few hundred feet wide, which shocked him.

“Hundreds of feet?” Yin Ting frowned. “Are you confident?”

“Hard to say. Let’s test it first.”

They arrived at the secret passage. After walking for five to six days, they saw the essence of beast blood floating in front of them.

“Four! There are actually so many of them. No wonder there are more than a thousand feet of insects nearby!”

The two of them were both shocked and happy. Shen Ping hurriedly said, “Retreat to the secret passage first.” With so many insects, if the first form of a top-notch beast spirit treasure did not kill the insects, it would be troublesome. He didn’t want anything to happen to Yin Ting.

Yin Ting looked hesitant, but she knew that she would only be in the way if she stayed here. After repeatedly reminding Shen Ping to be careful, she retreated to the passageway.

Psst. When the beast blood crystal moved, the walls of the cave also flickered. More than a million dense strange insects swept towards Shen Ping. The strange beast puppet was devoured immediately.

Chi! Chi! Chi! The blood patterns on the tip of the Primordial Chaos Spear suddenly emitted a blood-colored light as the strange beast’s magic powers poured in. The surface of the Primordial Chaos Spear was surrounded by blood-colored patterns. The blood-colored light instantly pierced through the space in front of him like a sword beam. The cave wall collapsed, and a large number of insects were obliterated.

The power of this form was only a kind of brilliance that burst out when activated. Its true power was still on the spear. Just the blood light killed the insects, so there was no need for Shen Ping to use the spear again.

All the insects were annihilated. Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief. After easily taking away the beast’s blood essence, he returned to the passageway. “After half a year of traveling, this trip was not in vain.”

If they were in the main passageway, they would be able to obtain more than ten beast blood essences in half a year with their previous efficiency. From the looks of it, there was probably a lot of beast blood essence in this fork.

The two of them did not dare to delay and continued to walk towards the next secret passage.

On the way, the dense beast blood essence fluctuated continuously, but there was no secret passage nearby. Shen Ping could see the aura of those insects in the distance with his talent.

■■These secret passages should belong to the maps of the other geniuses. If we

go over, we have to take two forks.”

There were many tunnels in the cave, and Shen Ping and Yin Ting’s maps only covered a small area. If not for his unique beast talent, the two of them would have missed a lot of beast blood essence in the middle area.

Yin Ting said, “The two forks are not far. We can arrive in seven to eight days. What we have to worry about is that if we rush over, we might encounter the prodigies of the other races.”

Shen Ping nodded. Currently, there were no other prodigies in his line of sight, but it was not certain if they would rush over. Moreover, the environment of this cave was special. The range his strange beast talent could detect was affected. If he saw other prodigies, the other prodigies could basically sense his location through their divine sense. “Wait here. My escape technique is fast. I should be able to take away the essence of the beast’s blood before the other prodigies go.”

With that, he activated Enhancement and Teleportation. It would take seven to eight days to take a detour, but he only needed half a day to teleport. There were three beast blood essences in this secret passage.

No other prodigies entered the secret passage until they returned.

A few days later, one of the demon prodigies arrived at this secret passage. The magical power fluctuations of the strange beasts were still lingering in the secret passage, and a lot of the cave walls had been destroyed. “Damn it, the prodigies of the other races beat us to it!”

-In the main passageway, the other teams of my race had encountered it once. I didn’t expect us to encounter it in the fork area. Who is it that is so efficient?” “Don’t waste time. Let’s continue to the next secret passage. I can sense the beast’s blood essence in this fork in the road. The competition will probably be

very intense.”

It was not only the Demon Race, the secret passage marked on the maps of the Flame Race, the Devil Clan, and even on the Realm Clan had been visited by Shen Ping. This made them very angry because from the traces of destruction of the secret passage, there were more than three inside.

“It’s definitely the Spirit Race. Their race’s Ling Hao is ranked very high, and the map is more detailed than ours. Perhaps there are other shortcuts that lead here.”

“Detestable Realm Race and the Stone Race, only they are ranked higher than our Spirit Race.”

“These powerful clans have occupied quite a lot of the top 10,000 to begin with. Now, they even want to snatch the essence of the beast’s blood. How can they let us live?!”

The various races immediately suspected each other. Even the Devil Clan, the Demon Race, the Flame Race, and the Spirit Race were at odds with each other. After all, the essence of beast blood was extremely valuable.

On the other hand, Shen Ping, who was the instigator, was extremely excited. It was really the right choice to come to this fork in the road. In just half a year, he had obtained more than a hundred beast blood essences. Including the previous ones, there were already more than 140.

“With so much beast blood essence, Fellow Daoist Shen will definitely be able to comprehend to the level of scale armor!” Yin Ting was also extremely happy. However, Shen Ping smiled and said, “It’s not enough. It’s not enough for me to enter the scale level alone.”

Yin Ting was touched. This was the essence of beast blood. Not to mention Dao companions, even clansmen with blood ties would have conflicts, but Shen Ping had always thought of her.

“We’re almost done exploring this fork. Let’s go back to the main passageway.” Recently, he and Yin Ting had encountered many prodigies from various races, and they were becoming more and more frequent. Even if they avoided them in advance, sometimes they would not be able to make it in time. Furthermore, they had gained a lot this time, so there was no point in staying here to explore.

Yin Ting nodded. The two of them did not stop and returned to the main passageway. Just as they left the edge of the area covered by the fork, the cave wall of the passageway suddenly lit up, and the area exceeded 3km!

Chi chi-

Almost instantly, the worms in the tunnel swept towards the two of them. Shen Ping’s reaction was extremely fast. He activated the top-notch beast spirit treasure to unleash a blood light. At the same time, he took out hundreds of strange beast puppets to block the surroundings. At this moment, even delaying for half a breath was extremely helpful to the two of them.

Yin Ting also activated her high-grade beast spirit treasure. For a moment, the bloody light and the long whip intertwined in the passageway. The strange beast puppets were destroyed one by one, but the insects were still densely packed.

“Quick, hide in the palace.” When Shen Ping saw this, he took out a palace-type beast spirit treasure and let Yin Ting hide inside. Yin Ting did not dare to hesitate and quickly flashed into the palace. The defense of the palace-type beast spirit treasure was extremely strong. Even insects needed two breaths to completely devour the palace.

Shen Ping waved the Primordial Chaos Spear in his hand. Waves of silver-white spear shadows mixed with blood completely enveloped his surroundings, forming a blood spear domain that killed all the insects that flew over.

Five breaths later, the blood light and spear shadows disappeared. A look of relief appeared on his face. That moment just now was too dangerous. If he had made a mistake, he and Yin Ting would have died here. After Yin Ting came out, her eyes were filled with fear. “There’s no beast blood essence in this passageway.. Why are there so many insects?”
