“So it’s Brother Shen.” The red-haired middle-aged man smiled and cupped his hands. He continued, “Brother Shen, do you know Ji Tai?”
Ji Tai was the Great Xia Dynasty’s ancestor. When Shen Ping heard this, he guessed that the expert on the second level of the Star Platform in front of him was from the guardian faction. He hurriedly said, “Of course I recognize him. I’m ashamed to say that Brother Ji has already encountered a mishap. I still have nearly ten thousand years of lifespan, so I can’t enter the Black Abyss in advance.”
The red-haired man’s expression changed drastically. “What? Ji Tai is actually dead? How is that possible? Although he’s not strong, he has the protection of the country’s fate after all. How did he die?”
Shen Ping casually made up a peerless genius.
“So that’s the case. I have to report this matter to the Holy Temple elders as soon as possible.”
The red-haired man immediately brought Shen Ping to the Holy Temple.
The Black Abyss was called the Holy Land here, and in the center of the Holy Land was a towering mountain range. There was a palace on this mountain, built by the experts who entered the Black Abyss in ancient times.
Be it Ancestor Ji’s faction, the Demon Emperor Black Dragon’s faction, or the neutral faction, there were elders in the Holy Temple. In short, there were very few competitions in the entire Black Abyss. There would only be competition during a special period that happened once every ten thousand years.
In the two to three hundred years after Shen Ping fused with the origin blood, he had developed a method to hide the aura of the heavens and the earth. Now, he had only displayed the might of the heavens and the earth on the second level of the Star Platform. Clearly, the red-haired middle-aged man had not sensed it.
However, when he came to the Holy Land Palace, he could not help but feel nervous. Through the origin blood, he could sense that the greatest opportunity was at the core of the Holy Mountain. If he wanted to open it, he would definitely alarm all the experts in the Black Abyss. In other words, if this concealment method could not hide from those Divine Realm experts, he would have to face all the experts in the Black Abyss.
He waited in the hall for a while before the Divine Realm elder appeared. He looked at Shen Ping and only sized him up for a moment before retracting his gaze and asking about Ji Tai. Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief. It was still the same excuse.
“I didn’t expect such a prodigy to be born in 10,000 years. Although Elder Meng has long deduced it, the other party can step into the emperor-level outside and has five bloodlines. His talent is comparable to Elder Jiang of our Holy Temple.”
Shen Ping hurriedly asked, “Is the Elder Jiang you’re talking about the Jiang You who once suppressed the era for ten thousand years?”
“That’s him.” The Divine Realm elder nodded.
Shen Ping pretended to be excited and said, “I didn’t expect Senior Jiang You to still be alive.”
“Haha, but of course. The loss of lifespan in the Black Abyss is very slow. Resources to increase lifespan will appear here as well. With Jiang You’s strength and talent, it’s not difficult for him to live for tens of thousands of years.”
The Divine Realm elder smiled and said, “Since you’re new and know Ji Tai, you’ll be a member of the Human Hall in the future. Feng Yi, bring him to familiarize himself with the Holy Land.”
The red-haired middle-aged man hurriedly said, “Yes, Elder.”
Soon, Shen Ping followed Feng Yi out of the Holy Temple. On the way, Feng Yi introduced to Shen Ping, “The entire Holy Land is not big. Compared to the outside world, this is only a small world. However, the carrying capacity of this small world is very strong. Even Divine Realm elders can’t cause much damage to this world. The Holy Temple has a total of three factions, namely the Human Hall, the Demon Hall, and the Heavenly Hall. Among them, the Heavenly Hall is neutral, and our Human Hall and the Demon Hall are enemies. Of course, no one usually kills each other.”
He brought Shen Ping to a mountain range far away from the Holy Mountain.
“This is Xiang Shen Mountain, where experts who have not reached the emperor level live. If you break through to the emperor level, you can go to the sub-god mountain ahead. Do you see the nearby mountains? Every mountain has different resources, but don’t go easily without the permission of the Holy Temple Elder.”
There were quite a few Star Platform experts living in Xiang Shen Mountain. There were more than a thousand of them, which was a little beyond Shen Ping’s expectations. After all, according to Ji Tai, no new Star Platform Level 2 had entered the Black Abyss in the thousand years since he entered.
He casually chose a cave abode and moved in.
“Brother Shen, if there’s anything you don’t understand or need, feel free to look for me.” Before leaving, Feng Yi said with a smile.
Shen Ping hurriedly said, “Thank you, Brother Feng.”
In fact, the other party had already explained in detail on this path. In the Black Abyss, although there were resources to increase one’s lifespan and increase one’s comprehension of the power of heaven and earth, these resources were very rare. One had to contribute enough to the Holy Temple to obtain them.
Otherwise, he would have to rely on the long years to cultivate and improve himself. Contributions could be obtained through many methods, or through unique cultivation techniques, or by going to the Holy Land’s Black Mountain to kill Abyssal Beasts. Most of them chose the second method. Although it was a little dangerous, it was stable.
The Abyssal Beast was a strange creature born naturally in the Black Abyss. It did not have intelligence, but its attack was comparable to an emperor-level creature. After killing it, there was a chance to obtain the Abyssal Pill condensed in the Abyssal Beast’s body.
This kind of Abyssal Pill was one of the materials to increase lifespan resources.
“Let’s familiarize ourselves with the environment and other experts in the Black Abyss first. I’ll attack when the time is ripe!”
Shen Ping pondered while sitting cross-legged in the cave abode. Although he was very confident in his strength, there were a total of 15 Divine Realm elders in the Black Abyss, especially Jiang You. The other party was a peerless expert who had suppressed the era for ten thousand years. Even if he had seven elements, Jiang You had cultivated here for tens of thousands of years. He did not know how strong he was. If he acted rashly, he would only put himself in danger..
