Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

“Yes, Venerable Sovereign.”

The hundred immortal kings and Immortal Venerables replied in unison. Next, they dissipated one by one. Only Shen Ping, Tian Hong, and a few Immortal Venerables were left on the mountain peak. The solemn atmosphere also became relaxed.

Immortal Venerable Nanji smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re powerful now. Although you haven’t broken through to the Venerable Sovereign realm, you should have your own Dao name.”

Immortal Venerable Yao agreed, “That’s right. In the past, you were a prodigy of the human race and didn’t have a Dao name. It’s different now. You should have your own Dao name.”

Immortal Venerables like Qi, Yu, Bing, and Yue also agreed. Human Venerable Sovereigns all had dao names. It’s both a status symbol and an honor. The other Immortal Venerables were only titles.

Shen Ping pondered for a moment. Indeed, after cultivating for so many years, he did not have a title. Usually, when he reached the Golden Core realm, he would have a title, such as a Perfected, a Perfected Lord, a Venerable, and so on.

Hence, he thought about it seriously. He walked over from the humble beginning, from the five continents to the four seas, then to the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, and then ascended to the Immortal Extinction Forbidden Land. After that, he was in the Northern Ice Immortal City and left the realm to reach Chaotic Peak Mountain. However, the one who really benefited him was actually the Realm Sea Peak, the bloodline of a strange beast, the bloodline world, the Dao Lineage world.

Reincarnation after reincarnation. Fate, Chaos Hole, Sword Dao, Reincarnation, Five Elements, Yin and Yang… Many Great Dao of Heaven and Earth gathered in one body. And the root of everything was the first virtual frame to be created.

“My Dao is to seek longevity, freedom, and even more, to protect my loved ones. Let this Dao name be Dao Yan,” he said as he muttered in his heart that he used the Dao of Protection to derive everything.

The other Immortal Venerables laughed.

“Greetings, Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan.”

Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong also smiled. “Brother Dao Yan.”

Shen Ping shook his head. “Master, you can’t do that.”

“It doesn’t matter. Master and disciple just need to be in the heart. We cultivate and don’t care about this identity.”

At this point, the news that the human race had an additional Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan quickly spread among the myriad races.

“Greetings, Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan.”

Wang Yun, Yu Yan, Bai Yuying, and the other wives and Dao companions greeted jokingly. Shen Ping said angrily, “Your body is itching again, right? How dare you tease me? None of you will be able to escape tonight!”

Now that he had a Daoist name, Venerable Tian Hong suggested that Shen Ping open another holy peak in the core territory. Every Venerable Sovereign of the human race had a special cultivation holy peak. Only after they were confirmed to have died would this holy peak collapse.

Rumble!

With Shen Ping’s strength, it was effortless to build a majestic holy mountain. He simply communicated with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and used the power of the Great Dao to condense other rare treasures to condense the mountain. After the Great Dao Holy Peak condensed, it quickly gathered immortal meridians and even the power of the Great Dao circulated.

After all, he had condensed it using the top-notch Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Although it could not compare to a special place like Chaotic Peak Mountain, it could sense the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth clearly on this holy peak.

After the construction of the Holy Peak, it was time to preach the Dao. This was also to make it convenient for the immortal kings, Immortal Venerables, and peerless immortals of the human race to know Shen Ping’s strength.

Many Venerable Sovereigns of the myriad races received invitations to attend the ceremony. The date was also set for 30 years later.

…

Under a towering green tree, the Spirit Race’s Venerable Sovereign’s expression was gloomy. The other Immortal Venerables shouted.

“That human prodigy has become a Venerable Sovereign, but he invited us to watch the ceremony. This is blatant bragging!”

“It’s not showing off, it’s declaring war!”

“Isn’t Venerable Tian Hong injured? Even if they have another Venerable Sovereign, they wouldn’t dare to start a war between races, right?!”

“Hmph, humans have malicious intentions and are cunning and sinister. Who knows what Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong is planning?!”

“As far as I’m concerned, don’t go. It’ll save me a lot of trouble.”

Venerable Sovereign felt even gloomier.

On the Devil Clan’s side.

Di Xin gritted his teeth. That junior still dared to open the mountain and discuss the Dao. How much did a fellow who had only cultivated for a short period of time understand the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth?!

Shan Yu sneered, “Go. That human prodigy has the Realm Sea Peak. In terms of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao, he’s much stronger than you, a Venerable Sovereign of the Devil Clan who has cultivated for many eras!”

Boom. Di Xin angrily smashed everything in the hall. “Realm Sea Peak, Realm Sea Peak!”

Shan Yu was elated. When this guy took the bait, he would be able to revive with full health!

Some things were better than the comparison. If the Devil Clan’s Venerable Sovereign had not fought Shen Ping before, he would not be too angry. This was because he would always feel that Shen Ping was just a junior. No matter how talented he was, he still had a long way to go to reach the Venerable Sovereign realm. Even if he had the combat strength of a Venerable Sovereign, he only relied on a Great Dao treasure.

However, after the fight, the situation was different. Therefore, as long as Shan Yu kept mentioning the Realm Sea Peak, any expert would think that it was the Realm Sea Peak that created Shen Ping. In fact, he was right. It was indeed an opportunity like the Realm Sea Peak that allowed Shen Ping to rapidly improve. Otherwise, he would still be in the lower realm.

At the same time, the Venerable Sovereigns of the other races had also received invitations. This kind of ceremony was relatively common. Typically, when a race had a Venerable Sovereign, they would invite them. However, they would not publicize it like the humans and invite all races.

What if a Venerable Sovereign attacked? Therefore, they invited the Venerable Sovereigns of their races to watch the ceremony.

Winged Race.

Several Winged Race’s Immortal Venerables were gathered near the water of the True Pool.

“Venerable Sovereign, this time, the humans have invited the Venerable Sovereigns of the various races to watch the ceremony. I’m afraid it has an extraordinary meaning!”

“That’s right. Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong is injured. Logically speaking, he should keep a low profile and recuperate. Even if that human prodigy has risen, he shouldn’t be so high-profile. This matter is definitely not ordinary.”

“Perhaps Venerable Sovereign Tian Hong wants to use this to intimidate the myriad races.”

“But he thinks too highly of Shen Ping. What strength can a new Venerable Sovereign have?”

The Winged Race’s Venerable Sovereign was also a little uncertain. She thought for a moment and found Yin Ting. No matter what, Yin Ting was a member of the Winged Race. Even if she became Shen Ping’s Dao Companion, if she wanted to increase her strength, she still had to return to the Winged Race, especially after she ascended.

“Ting’er, you have a deep relationship with Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan. Have you heard him talk about the Dao discussion?”

Yin Ting shook her head. “I’ve never heard of it, but I heard from my husband that his master’s injuries have already recovered.”

The Venerable Sovereign’s heart trembled. “What? His injuries have recovered? H-How is this possible?! Did Venerable Sovereign Dao Yan really say that?”

“I wouldn’t dare to lie!”

The Venerable Sovereign stared at Yin Ting for a long time before waving her hand. “Alright, I understand. Ting’er, you can come to the True Pool to cultivate anytime in the future.”

Yin Ting hurriedly said, “Thank you, Venerable Sovereign.”

Looking at her back, the Venerable Sovereign’s expression was uncertain. “If Venerable Tian Hong really recovers from his injuries, with his strength and a new Venerable Sovereign, the path of the human race’s resurgence will be unstoppable. What should our Winged Race do?!”

Among the myriad races, the Winged Race’s foundation and strength were not very strong. She could only rely on her to rank among the powerful races. However, facing the human race, the Devil Clan, the Spirit Race, the Demon Race, the Flame Race, and so on, she could only sway back and forth.

It couldn’t be helped. The overall strength of the Winged Race wasn’t strong. There were only a few Immortal Venerables in the race, and until now, no one had any hope of breaking through to the Venerable Sovereign realm. Moreover, the territory they occupied was limited. As a Venerable Sovereign, she worked hard for the race every day.

In the clan grounds of the dragons and phoenixes, the Phoenix Clan’s Venerable Sovereign looked at Immortal Venerable Luan with flames in his eyes, “Luan’er, you’ve been to Chaotic Peak Mountain. Can Shen Ping really kill a mid-stage Initial Dao Stage expert?”

Immortal Venerable Luan said casually, “Venerable Sovereign, how can such a thing be faked? Venerable Dao Yan and I are in love. You should be able to sense the aura in my bloodline.”

The Phoenix Clan’s Venerable Sovereign sighed softly, “I just can’t believe it. Back then, when Shen Ping first ascended, he still needed me and the Dragon Clan’s Venerable Sovereign to protect him. Who knew that he would become so powerful in such a short period of time? He could even casually kill a mid-stage Initial Dao Realm cultivator! Luan’er, how do you think the Phoenix Clan should deal with this?”

Immortal Venerable Luan said without thinking, “Of course it’s a celebration. The dragon and phoenix races have always been on good terms with the human race. I know Venerable Sovereign’s concerns. If the human race rises again, it will indeed squeeze out the living space of the myriad races. However, Venerable Sovereign, don’t forget that I’ve already been to Chaotic Peak Mountain. That place is even wider. There are endless realms and many races. Just the number of Venerable Sovereigns in Chaotic Peak Mountain far exceeds this place!

“Fellow Daoist Shen wouldn’t stay here forever!”
