Gray Stone City.

In the backyard of the An family’s caravan base.

In the guest room.

Jing Huilan, who was wearing a green gauze dress and had a slender figure, had just returned. Before she could help Shen Ping shower and change his clothes, she was invited here by An Zhi. She sat on the wooden chair and said softly, “May I know what Fellow Daoist An wants?”

An Zhi looked at Jing Huilan, who was as weak as water, and envy flickered in the depths of her eyes. Back then, the reason why she and her sister were willing to accompany Shen Ping to Gray Stone City was because they wanted to befriend Shen Ping. In the end, this woman from the Jing family beat them to it.

“Sister Huilan, you’ve been by Senior Shen’s side for a long time. Compared to us, you should have a deeper understanding of his character. It’s like this. My sister, Yue’er, has long fallen in love with Senior Shen. I believe Sister Huilan can see this, so I wonder if you can help fulfill it?”

Jing Huilan was a little stunned. Of course, she knew that An Yue treated Shen Ping differently, but she did not expect An Zhi to directly ask her for help. It all depended on the willingness of the two. If she tried to forcefully matchmake them, it would probably backfire.

The reason why she could successfully accompany him back then was mainly because she was forced by the situation. In addition, she was willing to use everything she had in exchange for an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Jing Huilan said in a gentle voice, “Fellow Daoist An, although I’ve accompanied my husband for five years, I’m only a maidservant who serves him. My words are light. If I speak rashly, I might make my husband unhappy. Since Fellow Daoist An Yue likes my husband, why doesn’t she visit him and open her heart? That might have a chance of success.”

An Zhi frowned slightly.

Jing Huilan continued, “To be honest, Fellow Daoist An, my husband already has several wives and concubines outside. I think he’s not an old-fashioned person in such matters. Besides,” She said in a low voice with a slightly red face, “If Fellow Daoist An Yue serves him with me together, I will be able to relax.”

When An Zhi heard this, she immediately understood what Jing Huilan meant. She couldn’t help but cover her mouth and smile. “Thank you for telling me, Sister Huilan. If it works, I’ll definitely remember this favor.” The corners of her lips twitched slightly as she sent a voice transmission, “Sister, Senior Shen is…”

The two of them quickly discussed some unknown things.

In the quiet room, Shen Ping sat cross-legged on a cushion. Through the dazzling crystal, he briefly told his master about the trip to the Frost Wolf Swamp. A warm voice quickly sounded from the resplendent crystal.

“From the looks of it, a high-grade beast spirit treasure like the Silk Blade is really powerful. Disciple, you only used its ordinary power and easily killed a late-stage Nascent Soul realm demon cultivator. Such a treasure is probably not inferior to a low-grade immortal artifact!”

Lian Xuejin sounded a little surprised. Over the years, through constant communication with Shen Ping, she knew a lot about the Beast Spirit Treasures, Heavenly Palace and the underground palace in the Strange Beast Gate. Naturally, she knew how special and powerful the Beast Spirit Treasure was. He had yet to activate the true power of the treasure, yet it had such an effect. It was really unbelievable.

As a powerful cultivator who stood at the peak of the five continents and four seas, she was very familiar with the power of treasures of various levels. However, beast spirit treasures had clearly exceeded the scope of treasures. “Immortal artifact?” Shen Ping was stunned and could not help but ask, “Master, have you seen the power of an immortal artifact?”

Lian Xuejin nodded. “My master was a powerful Immortal Dao cultivator. After he died back then, he also left behind two immortal artifacts. However, with my strength and realm, I was unable to activate such an immortal artifact at all. I could only rely on the benefits of the immortal artifact materials to kill the powerful Derivative Beasts. It was also because of this immortal artifact that I was able to stabilize the five continents and four seas for so many years.”

Shen Ping was enlightened. However, he was not surprised. The Nine Continents Tower was a supreme treasure of the human race. To be able to guard it, it must have an extraordinary strength realm. It was not strange for it to have an immortal artifact.

“Disciple, since the power of a high-level beast spirit treasure is so powerful, the subsequent cultivation plan has to be modified. Now that you’ve given me the immortal spirit stone, the danger of the Derivative Beasts in the five continents and four seas is no longer a concern. Next, when the entire array core completely absorbs the immortal spiritual energy of the immortal spirit stone, it can completely stabilize the five continents and four seas and suppress the dissipation of the energy of the strange beasts.

“Therefore, your top priority now is to increase your strength. With a high-grade beast spirit treasure, as long as you don’t encounter any Void Refinement Realm cultivators, you can do whatever you want… The strongest in the surroundings of Gray Stone City is that Void Refinement Realm, Shi Hu. Staying here will help you cultivate steadily. If you go to Sword Seal City, you will instead encounter cultivators of even stronger races.”

Lian Xuejin pondered and said, “That’s why I suggest that while increasing your strength, you first use Gray Stone City as your foundation to establish your own faction. This way, you can deal with and avoid some unexpected situations.

“When you’ve truly grown up, leave Gray Stone City and head to the Eastern District of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, Spirit Heaven Immortal City!”

Shen Ping did not say anything. Instead, he fell into deep thought. His original plan was to first keep a low profile in Gray Stone City and increase his strength. Then, after reaching the Divine Transformation or Void Refinement Realm, he would first go to the Penglai Immortal City at the edge of the Western District. Then, he would take a starship to cross the sea of stars and arrive at the Eastern District.

However, his master’s suggestion was more proactive.

At this moment, Lian Xuejin’s gentle voice sounded again, “Disciple, you have a high-level beast spirit treasure. Whether it’s in the Strange Beast Gate or the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, it’s impossible to keep a low profile. Especially the Strange Beast Gate. Genius cultivators of the various races gather there. From the previous situation, the other races seem to have already known about you, a human cultivator with a beast pattern golden core. Therefore, I’m afraid there will be endless storms in the future. It might even affect your cultivation in the Abyss of Supreme Darkness..”
