“Therefore, the competition for territories has never stopped. In the territory of our human race, there are over 100,000 Immortal Cities of various sizes. These Immortal Cities are divided into high-grade, medium-grade, and low-grade. The cultivation environment of high-grade Immortal Cities is comparable to a grotto-heaven, and the low-grade can barely maintain cultivation. If immortal cultivators want to obtain resources and cultivation places, they have to compete. Only in this way can they enter Immortal Cities.

“My Snow Flame Immortal City is a medium-grade immortal city. Of course, with Fellow Daoist Shen’s status, you will definitely be able to enter the core Holy Land in the immortal Dao territory.”

Golden Immortal Li’s words gave Shen Ping a rough understanding of the Immortal Dao territory. Simply put, the Immortal Dao territory was the core of the competition between the myriad races. There was a huge battlefield for the various races there, and battles were happening almost every moment. Compared to that battlefield, the battle at the frontline of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness was completely insignificant.

It was precisely because of this that the various races could not invest more Golden Immortals. As the human race had a huge territory and had more borders to guard against, it was even more difficult to mobilize Golden Immortals.

After the celebration banquet, Golden Immortal Li and the other Golden Immortals, Heavenly Immortals, and True Immortals left. However, before they left, Golden Immortal Li still reminded them slightly, “Fellow Daoist Shen’s True Treasure Pavilion can occupy the western region of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, but it’s best not to suppress the foreign races too much in the other areas. Although every race has their own cultivation lower realm, the Abyss of Supreme Darkness is rather special. If there are no foreign races’ cultivation places, the upper echelons of the Immortal Dao of the various races will definitely interfere.”

Shen Ping understood what Golden Immortal Li meant. The Immortal Dao territories of the various races had rules. Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals were not allowed to interfere with cultivation in the lower realm. This time, because of him, the Western District had become an exception. However, his strength had already surpassed that of a Golden Immortal. If he killed the foreign races wantonly, the various races would definitely send Immortal Dao experts to the lower realm again. At that time, it would be another battle.

To put it bluntly, Golden Immortal Li was kind enough to let him cultivate in peace and not get involved in too much trouble. When he ascended and entered the Immortal Dao territory, he would have plenty of opportunities to fight the foreign races.

Shen Ping had never thought of occupying other areas. It was enough for the True Treasure Pavilion to develop in the Western District. He did not have the energy to manage it.

In a narrow wooden house at the core of the array of the five continents and four seas, Shen Ping bowed. “Greetings, Master.”

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong’s projection smiled and said, “Disciple, you caused quite a commotion in the sea of stars. It greatly increased the prestige of the human geniuses.”

“I was just lucky.” Shen Ping said humbly.

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong shook his head, “There’s no need to be humble. You’re the strongest prodigy of our human race, so you should have the drive of a prodigy. After this, the various races will no longer think of dealing with you in the lower realm. They will wait for you to ascend, so you can’t slack off at all next. Comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth with all your might and try your best to comprehend a Great Dao of Heaven and Earth before you ascend. Only then will you have enough confidence to deal with the plots of the various races.”

He sighed. “The Immortal Dao is vast and has many divine powers and spells. Moreover, all the races have infiltrated each other. I can’t even control all of them.”

Shen Ping’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately said, “I will meditate and comprehend it.”

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong nodded. “If you have any questions about the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, feel free to ask.”

Shen Ping quickly voiced the questions that had accumulated in his heart. “Master, when I was comprehending a top-notch Great Dao secret technique, no matter how much I studied, it was still difficult for me to comprehend the second diagram. I wonder what’s going on?” As he spoke, he roughly explained the first page of the True Book of Dao Origin.

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong could not help but praise, “I see. As expected of a top-notch Great Dao mystic technique. This eminence should have revealed the essence of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao in a diagram. If you can understand it, it will be much easier for you to comprehend the Heaven and Earth Great Dao. Such ability is really amazing. Even I can’t dissect the essence so bluntly.

“The reason is actually very simple as to why you can’t comprehend the second diagram. No matter how proficient you are in spells, if your foundation of magic power is not solid, it will be difficult for you to unleash too much power. Disciple, you can’t be considered to have a basic foundation in comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Even if it’s a simple secret technique diagram, you won’t be able to understand it. Do you understand?”

Shen Ping immediately came to a realization and said repeatedly, “Thank you for clearing my doubts, Master.”

In layman’s terms, if the diagrams in the True Book of the Dao Origin were a superb and perfect artistic painting, then one had to have a deep understanding of painting skills and drawing skills to understand this painting. The fluctuations of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and deeper information were painting skills and drawing skills. He had just grasped a trace of fluctuations, so he naturally could not understand more diagrams.

When Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong saw this, he smiled and nodded. “There are no shortcuts to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. No matter who it is, they have to comprehend it step by step. Even you Beast Spirit geniuses need to take it one step at a time. That Beast Blood’s Essence is only helpful in accelerating your comprehension, so Disciple, don’t be anxious and advance.”

“Yes, Master.”

Venerable Sovereign Heavenly Swan continued, “From the continuous appearance of palaces in the Realm Sea Peak, that mighty figure should be nurturing Beast Spirits like you to comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. I have a feeling that there will definitely be a huge commotion in the Realm Sea Peak next. Moreover, it’s very likely to be related to the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Otherwise, if you Beast Spirits want to comprehend and grow at this cultivation level, it’s undoubtedly encouraging them to be impatient for success. And no matter what the commotion is, you have to fight for it.”

He watched as the Venerable Sovereign’s projection disappeared. Shen Ping’s eyes revealed a thoughtful expression. He returned to the City Lord Manor. Wang Yun, Yu Yan, Mu Jin, Luo Qing, Bai Yuying, and the Dao companions also returned from the five continents and four seas. The residence became lively again.

At the pavilion by the lake, the children first greeted the matriarchs, then bowed in front of Shen Ping before leaving one after another.

“Husband, you went to the sea of stars alone this time. Ying’er was so worried!” Bai Yuying sat on Shen Ping’s left leg and said bitterly, “Next time, I don’t want to wait like this anymore. I also want to help my husband.”

Wang Yun, Yu Yan, and the others nodded. In particular, Pei Huoyu bit her red lips, her eyes filled with dispiritedness. Ever since Shen Ping rose to prominence, she, as a guard, no longer had any help. Even if she cultivated all day, it was difficult for her to catch up to her husband. This made her feel very disappointed.

Shen Ping took in the expressions of his wives, concubines, and Dao companions. He knew this, but there was no choice. Other than resources, cultivation also depended on one’s talent. Among his wives, concubines, and Dao companions, only Ying Yue, Yu Qingling, and Yue Lingluo had outstanding talent. The rest could only be said to be ordinary. Without resources, it was already the limit to cultivate to the Divine Transformation Realm. Even if there were sufficient resources, it was very difficult to advance continuously in a short period of time.

“The fact that you’re safe and sound is the greatest help to me. Don’t worry, though. From today onwards, no one in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness can threaten your husband anymore. You don’t have to worry in the future.”

Only then did the wives and concubines reveal smiles.

Bai Yuying wrapped her arms around Shen Ping’s neck and said coquettishly, “Husband, you said that you would hold a ceremony when you break through to the Tribulation Transcendence realm. Now that you’ve already broken through and resolved the problem of the sea of stars, I think you can hold it in peace, right?”

“That’s right. We all want to admire your graceful demeanor of Tribulation Transcendence.”

His wife, concubine, and Dao-companions’ eyes flickered with anticipation. Even though the residence had held various banquets during this period of time, there had never been a true ceremony. They did not really want to admire it. Instead, they wanted to use this opportunity to let their husband relax.

Shen Ping looked at his Dao companions and laughed. “Alright, we’ll hold the Tribulation Transcendence Ceremony in half a year. At the same time, we’ll hold our Dao companion banquet!”

Ever since he started cultivating, he had always been cautious. Although he had many wives and concubines, he had never held a Dao Companion banquet. Now that he had succeeded, he could finally make up for it..
