Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife Chapter 376: Leaving (1)

Chapter 376: Leaving (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In his previous life, during the period when the doomsday prophecy was popular, Shen Ping had once seen such a question. If the end of the world came tomorrow, what would you do? Would you go crazy, do something you didn’t dare to do in the past, or live a normal life?

At that time, the last one was the one with the most likes. In the eyes of many people, this kind of thing was just for fun.

However, Shen Ping did not expect that he would really face such a problem one day. Facing the unsolvable calamity of the strange beasts, the collapse of the five continents and four seas seemed to have become a foregone conclusion. Knowing the truth, he could not calmly repeat his boring cultivation life. During this period of time, he had fallen into mental anxiety. He did not want to do anything, let alone cultivate.

Bai Yuying’s first reaction was to cherish every moment. How could he not understand this logic? After all, it was useless to struggle. He might as well accept his fate and enjoy it.

But when he really faced it, he realized that the unwillingness and fear that came from the bottom of his heart made him still want to struggle.

Hence, next, other than spending time with his wife, concubine, and Dao companions every day, Shen Ping spent the rest of his time cultivating the Dharmic imprint left behind by that Immortal Dao expert.

He wanted to sense the door of the strange beast and enter the mysterious place to see if there was any new hope. However, even after five years of continuous cultivation, he was still a little short of completely mastering it.

Two months later, the third wave of Derivative Beasts arrived. Although the number of huge things had increased greatly compared to the previous time, with the powerful foundation of the True Treasure Pavilion, it was still very easy to deal with them.

On the other hand, the number of Nascent Soul cultivators who died in many sects in the Zhongsheng Continent increased.

On this day, the Head Hall Master sent a message. Shen Ping adjusted his mind and came to Jingsi House through the purple jade bracelet. It was still the small courtyard with a radius of a thousand feet. Stepping on the ground could quickly calm one’s mind.

“Master.” He bowed.

The Head Hall Master was not wearing her usual palace dress. She was wearing a wide-sleeved dress. The colorful ribbon on her shoulders fluttered, and her black hair fluttered without any wind. Her dignified and virtuous face had different expressions at this moment.

“Disciple.” Accompanied by a gentle voice, this simple courtyard seemed to have some vitality. “Are you willing to save your wife, concubine, and Dao companions?”

Shen Ping was stunned. “Master, you mean…”

The Head Hall Master’s gaze landed on Shen Ping. “If you want to resolve the Derivative Beast calamity, you have to repair the barriers of the five continents and four seas and restore the balance of the spiritual energy array. 1 told you before that the reason why your Martial Uncle killed top cultivators like the Taiyan Sect and the Moon Lotus Holy Sect was to increase the suppression of the array.

“As the number of Derivative Beasts continues to increase, the spiritual veins of the various states are being destroyed one after another. Although it’s still under control at this stage, as time pa.s.ses, the entire spiritual energy balance will weaken. At that time, the barrier will collapse again. Now, it’s very difficult to continue sacrificing the top cultivators of the five continents and four seas to maintain the balance like your Martial Uncle. Therefore, the only solution now is to obtain the spiritual veins from the outside world to restore the balance of the spiritual energy array and buy time to repair the barrier.”

Shen Ping understood what his master meant. What was the outside world? It was naturally the true cultivation place outside the Nine Continents Tower. However, he could not figure out his master’s true intentions.

He thought for a moment. He cupped his hands and replied, “Master, your cultivation level is the highest in the five continents and four seas. If you go to the outside world…”

The Head Hall Master shook her head and interrupted, “If 1 could easily leave, why would I sacrifice the lives of so many Fellow Daoists in the Zhongsheng Continent?” At this point, she sighed. “The Nine Continents Tower is a treasure that suppresses strange beasts and is also a cage of the five continents and four seas. As long as one enters this tower, they can’t leave at all. Only the guardian of this tower can leave. Once they leave the Nine Continents Tower, it’s very difficult to enter again.

“Disciple, you should understand what I mean. You have the Beast Pattern Golden Core and have endless potential in the future. You can’t die in the five continents and four seas, so you’re the most suitable person to go out and find a spiritual vein.”

Shen Ping was silent for a moment before asking seriously, “Master, can obtaining spiritual veins to strengthen the spiritual energy in the five continents and four seas really resolve the Derivative Beast calamity?”

“No! The Spiritual Energy Array can only suppress the energy dissipated by the strange beasts, but it can’t repair the damaged barrier. No one in the entire five continents and four seas can repair it.

“Therefore, when you go to the outside world, other than searching for spiritual veins, you also have to go to the prosperous place of the human immortal Dao and find Venerable Ling Yun. As long as you find him, the calamity that the five continents and the four seas are facing can be easily resolved.”

The Head Hall Master said solemnly, “Disciple, remember that at the current rate of depletion of the spiritual energy array, the Five Continents and Four Seas Barrier can only last for another thousand years. If you can continuously obtain the spiritual veins, it will last even longer. But no matter what, you have to find Venerable Ling Yun as soon as possible.”

She gave a few more instructions before Shen Ping left Jingsi House. He did not reject or consider it because there was no other choice. Staying in the five continents and four seas was a dead end. He could only go out. Whether it was him or his wife and Dao companions, they would have a chance of survival.

After returning to the Fire Spirit Hall, he called his wife and concubines to the hall. Looking at w.a.n.g Yun, Yu Yan, Pei Huoyu, Bai Yuying, Luo Qing, Mu Jin, Qiuying, Yin Honglian, and the others, Shen Ping did not know what to say.

As if sensing her husband’s low mood, the wives and concubines did not say anything. After five minutes, Shen Ping said in a low voice, “Yun’er, Ying’er… I’m going to comprehend the Beast Scripture next.. 1 might have to leave for a while, and it’ll be a long time!”
