Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 1040: Killing a Venerable Sovereign (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations

Not only the Winged Race and the Phoenix Clan, the myriad races in the immortal Dao territory were all asking around for the exact situation of the human race. In fact, be it those who were on good terms with the human race or those who had feuds or grudges, they didn’t want the human race to rise again. This was because the entire immortal Dao territory was only so big and had only that many resources. If a race was too strong, the living space of the other races would be squeezed.

Immortal Venerable Yao, Immortal Venerable Nanji, and a few other Immortal Venerables came to discuss war with the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, the Demon Race, and the Flame Race at the Dao Yan Holy Peak.

Within the main hall, the waiters placed the wine and fruits on the jade table one after another.

Immortal Venerable Yao, who had a green bamboo mark between her brows, was dignified and holy. She smiled and said, “Everyone, this is the wine of Chaotic Peak Mountain. It’s rare in the Immortal Dao territory.”

Immortal Venerables Nanji, Qi, and Yu raised their wine cups and drank. After tasting a few mouthfuls, they praised it from the bottom of their hearts. They indeed felt the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao contained in the wine and increased their Dao Bodies.

It’s a rare wine.

Shen Ping smiled and brought up the main topic, “Immortal Venerable Nanji, you’ve always been in charge of the various immortal realms of our human race. If we fight with the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, and the others, how confident are you if the Venerable Sovereign doesn’t participate?”

Immortal Venerable Nanji pondered and said, “Is Venerable Dao Yan talking about occupying the territory of the Devil Clan and the Flame Clan, or only occupying a few immortal realms?”

“What is the difference between the two? Tell me in detail.”

The other Immortal Venerables looked at Nanji. Immortal Venerable Nanji slowly said, “If we only occupy a few Immortal Realms, it’s enough for us Immortal Venerables to attack with the current strength of our human race. However, once the number of Immortal Realms is increased, it will definitely cause the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, and other races to counterattack. At that time, it will be a true battle between armies.

“Although our human race has a strong foundation, the Devil Clan, the Flame Race, and other races will join forces and suppress our human race in terms of the army. Even the combat strength at the Immortal Venerable level is the same.”

Speaking of this, he suggested, “I think we have to plan this slowly. Let’s focus on the Flame Race’s territory first and slowly nibble away at it. This way, we won’t let the other races be too extreme. At the same time, we humans can use the resources of Chaotic Peak Mountain to accumulate strength. When another Venerable Sovereign is born, or when the number of Immortal Venerables clearly increases, this will be a good opportunity.”

The Immortal Venerables nodded one after another.

Immortal Venerable Yao said softly, “Fellow Daoist Nanji, your words are indeed wise. Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan, our human race is strong in terms of top combat strength now, but the combined strength of the myriad races is not weak. Through some information we have, the myriad races are now afraid of our human race. If we rashly start a war now, it will indeed promote the change in the situation in the entire Immortal Dao Domain. Even the special races in the Realm Sea will participate.”

The Immortal Dao Domain was not a place where anyone could act recklessly just because they were strong.

Back then, the human race was prosperous and glorious, suppressing the other races until they could not raise their heads. At that time, there were very few Venerable Sovereigns from the other races and they could only bow down. However, the situation is different now. There were more than a hundred Venerable Sovereigns in the entire Immortal Dao Domain.

If they were to join forces, it would be a considerable force. Unless Shen Ping could kill all these Venerable Sovereigns. To be honest, he had this thought, but he later dismissed it. It was difficult to deal with the outer realm experts of the endless realms with the strength of the human race alone.

If he could control a late-stage Dao Origin puppet, then there was no need to care. He could completely sweep through them. But the problem is, he can’t do it yet. Moreover, Shen Ping also knew that the existence of the myriad races was a competition. If only the human race was left, it might not be a good thing. Back then, the human race was so powerful that there were more than ten Venerable Sovereigns. In the end, there was intense internal strife, and half of the Venerable Sovereigns died!

“We’ll follow the Immortal Venerable Nanji’s suggestion. However, we’ll deal with the Devil Clan first. It can be used for training. As for Chaotic Peak Mountain, we’ll go there every thousand years. But you have to arrange the slots well. We can’t all go!”

Immortal Venerable Nanji revealed a happy expression. A trace of excitement flashed in the eyes of the other Immortal Venerables. They really wanted to go to Chaotic Peak Mountain and see the scenery of the endless realms. Their motivation for the battle between races was not very strong.

As the other Immortal Venerables left, Immortal Venerable Yao sighed and said, “Fellow Daoist Shen, the various Immortal Venerables actually have their own thoughts. What they want to do the most is to cultivate at Chaotic Peak Mountain and improve themselves.”

Shen Ping was silent. This was understandable. Even his master, Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong, wanted to go to Chaotic Peak Mountain and not stay in the Immortal Dao territory. These Immortal Venerables and Venerable Sovereigns had been here for countless years and were already tired of it.

For example, why were the two Venerable Sovereigns, Ling Yun and Hei Tian, lost? Didn’t they want to leave the realm and see the scenery outside?

“Let’s not talk about it. How’s the effect of the Dao Pill I gave you last time?”

Immortal Venerable Yao looked at Shen Ping and thanked him sincerely. “The effect is extremely good. I’m only a step away from the Anasrava Dao Embryo. In another hundred years at most, I’ll be able to achieve the Anasrava Dao Embryo.”

The rounder a Dao embryo is, the clearer one’s comprehension of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao would be. This complemented each other. When one broke through to the Venerable Sovereign realm, the Dao Body they absorbed and transformed would also be very strong. If they comprehended the Heaven and Earth Great Dao in advance, they could also break through and use the Heaven and Earth Great Dao origin to temper their Dao embryo.

However, most of them were on the path of the Dao Embryo. Very few people broke through first.

Shen Ping took a few steps forward and placed his palm on Immortal Venerable Yao’s purple jade belt. He gently exerted strength in his arm, and the pure Immortal Venerable Yao leaned against his chest. He lowered his head and looked at her beautiful eyes. “I have better ones here. Do you want to study them together?”

Immortal Venerable Yao was about to close her eyes when she sensed someone enter the hall and hurriedly broke free.
