A strange beast.
It was a mysterious and powerful life form in the world.
Just the Beast Scripture created by the human almighty through the combination of strange beasts and the Hundred Arts of the Immortal Dao had unfathomable power. However, he did not expect the white jade tower in front of him to be able to suppress it.
What kind of treasure was this!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShen Ping’s eyes burned. He could not help but have the thought of taking such a supreme treasure for himself. However, as soon as this thought appeared, he forcefully suppressed it. He was a cultivator who had just condensed his Golden Core.
How could he have the qualifications to own a supreme treasure of the human race? He should not even have a trace of greed. Otherwise, he would definitely cause trouble for himself.
Shen Ping, who had always been cautious, knew that greed was endless. Hence, he hurriedly diverted his attention. His eyes shifted from the white jade tower phantom to the round curve of the palace dress, and he fantasized about the color of the undergarment wrapped in the clothes.
Thinking of this, that greed immediately disappeared without a trace. His eyes cleared. After calming down, Shen Ping quickly realized that something was wrong. The Nine Continents Tower could suppress strange beasts, and the Beast Spirit Pool of the True Treasure Pavilion contained the essence of strange beasts’ blood. Didn’t that mean…?
He could not help but tremble and say his guess.
The Head Hall Master nodded slowly. “Disciple, your guess is right. There is indeed a strange beast suppressed under the Nine Continents Tower. However, the strange beast is the strongest living being in the world after all. Its power contains the truth of the world. As time passes, even the supreme treasure of the human race will be affected by it.
“Therefore, the Immortal Dao Almighty of our human race used the creation method to create the five continents and four seas. Then, he cooperated with many array formations and the Nine Continents Tower to slowly refine and absorb its power, causing the strange beast to gradually fall into a deep sleep.
“But even so, every once in a while, the power dissipated by the strange beast will form various mutated beasts that will corrode the five continents and the four seas. This is the source of the calamity.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ping came to a realization. It turned out that the so-called calamity all originated from the strange beast. No wonder when he obtained the perception talent of strange beasts, he immediately sensed the unknown fear in the sky. Now, it seemed that these unknowns were very likely beasts.
The gentle voice continued, “To the cultivators nurtured in the five continents and four seas, the Derivative Beast Tribulation is both a tempering and an opportunity. As long as you kill the Derivative Beast Tribulation, you can absorb a trace of energy dissipated by the strange beast. The more you accumulate, the easier it will be to break through to the Divine Transformation realm or even a higher cultivation bottleneck.
“The elders, hall masters, and many powerful cultivators of the twelve main halls of the True Treasure Pavilion have all experienced many calamities to grow.”
The Head Hall Master paused for a moment and waved her fair fingers. The originally empty trial tower space under his feet became solid again, and a large number of strange rocks, strange snakes, swamp beasts, strange eagles, mountain monsters, and so on appeared on every level.
Looking at these living beings, a voice sounded in Shen Ping’s ears. “This is a derivative beast of different levels.” The Head Hall Master looked at Shen Ping. “The Trial Tower is the Nine Continents Tower. I know all the situations of your trial in the tower.”
Shen Ping was not surprised when he heard that. When he knew that the Nine Continents Tower was a supreme treasure of the human race, he had actually already guessed this. However, during the trial, he had only revealed his two divine powers, the Dao of Talismans and the Puppet. The virtual interface had not been exposed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, he was still surprised for a moment before hurriedly saying, “Master, 1 didn’t mean to hide my puppet talent.”
The Head Hall Master smiled. “Since you have the same talent in another skill, how can 1 blame you for hiding it? The Beast Scripture involves the hundred arts of the Immortal Dao. The stronger your talent, the greater the chance of cultivating the Beast Scripture in the future.”
Her dignified and virtuous face revealed a trace of emotion. “The Beast Scripture is the blood and sweat of our human immortal sages. The ultimate goal of the True Treasure Pavilion to oversee the five continents and four seas is to nurture the true inheritor of the Beast Scripture. As long as you can comprehend the entire Beast Scripture, you can control strange beasts!”
Shen Ping was shocked. “Controlling a strange beast?”
“Yes.” The Head Hall Master’s voice was incomparably solemn, “Disciple, I told you before that the Beast Scripture is related to the mystery of longevity. The main reason is this strange beast. Only cultivators who really control the strange beast can know the secrets.
“Although I have also cultivated and studied the Beast Scripture, my talent and comprehension are average. Until now, 1 haven’t been able to master the Beast Scripture.
“Fortunately, after countless years, a successor like you was finally born in the five continents and four seas. Moreover, even I didn’t expect you to be able to condense a Beast Pattern Golden Core. This undoubtedly gives you an advantage in cultivating and studying the Beast Scripture.”
A moment later, Shen Ping left the Jingsi House. The information that the Head Hall Master had said today had indeed shocked him. Not only did he know the secrets of the five continents and four seas, but he also understood the importance of the Beast Scripture. However, at the same time, he also felt the pressure on his shoulders.
That was the hope of the immortal sages of the human race and the seniors of the True Treasure Pavilion. However, many doubts surged in Shen Ping’s heart again.
Since the Nine Continents Tower was a supreme treasure of the human race and suppressed the strongest living beings in the world, it was definitely the most important place for the human race. Why didn’t they arrange for powerful immortals to watch over it?
There were also sages of the Immortal Dao who could create a true cultivation technique like the “Beast Scripture”. They should be able to understand it. Then why didn’t they control the strange beast and use the Nine Continents Tower to suppress it? One had to know that controlling the strange beast could allow one to see the mysteries of longevity. No one could resist the temptation of longevity..
