Chapter 915: Getting In Trouble (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations

Near the encampment of the Sky Sparrow Legion, there was a tavern called the Black Sky Tavern. Such a tavern was spread across every Immortal Realm of the human race. The tavern was not only in the wine business, but also in the business of selling and collecting information. Behind it was Venerable Sovereign Hei Tian. After he disappeared, it was controlled by the Heavenly Court’s royal family. Even so, its business and prestige were still popular.

Compared to the detailed information provided by Qin Zhen, the information about the foreign race battlefield and the Northern Ice Immortal City was undoubtedly more accurate and had a wider source in this Black Sky Tavern,

Shen Ping had accepted three bounty missions. If he wanted to complete them quickly, he had to know the exact location and activity area of these three experts from the Devil Clan and the Flame Race army.

“Greetings, Senior! Do you want a drink, or do you need something else?” The tavern staff was smart and quickly went forward to ask.

Shen Ping looked around. There were many Golden Immortals and Mystic Immortals drinking in the tavern. They were all talking in low voices, but he could not hear anything. Clearly, they were deliberately isolating themselves with their immortal senses. “To buy information.”

Hearing this, the clerk immediately said, “Please follow me.”

Stepping on a staircase made of special wood, he went up to the third floor. A woman in charge of intelligence in the tavern brought Shen Ping to a private room. Then, she said with a smile, “The news of our Black Sky Tavern in the Northern Ice Immortal City is divided into five levels. Below the Golden Immortal Realm, below the sixth level of the Mystic Immortal Realm, below the Peerless Immortal, below the sixth level of the Peerless Immortal Realm, and below the Immortal King Realm… The fees for each level are different. May I know what information you want to ask?”

Shen Ping said, “The bounty information about the experts of the Devil Clan and the Flame Race’s army.”

These three experts were all at the 6th level of the Mystic Immortal Realm and above. Among them, one million merit points were at the 8th level of the Mystic Immortal Realm. According to the rules of the tavern, one had to pay 100,000 immortal spirit crystals.

Not long after, he had obtained specific information about the three experts from the army.

Several days later, by the Black Water Lake, which was only three days away from the Devil Clan’s immortal city, an army led by an expert of the Devil Clan at the eighth level of the Mystic Immortal realm was carrying out daily maintenance missions by the lake. All the areas between the two immortal cities of the Devil Clan and the human race were battlefields. Sometimes, even the immortal cities would become the core of the battlefield. However, that situation was basically a large-scale war that happened every million years.

Usually, the army was relatively free. They only needed to patrol the surrounding areas to prevent enemy forces from infiltrating the vicinity of the immortal city.

The target of the bounty happened to be on patrol today. Even if other peerless immortals accepted the bounty mission, it was impossible for them to rush over in such a short period of time. After all, the area between the two immortal cities was very vast. Even an immortal king would take more than a month to drive a top-grade flying immortal artifact.

Shen Ping was able to move so quickly because of his special beast talent. Under the cover of his aura, he quickly blended into his surroundings. Every bounty mission that exceeded a million was relatively difficult. Often, no one could complete it for thousands or tens of thousands of years. It was even more difficult to assassinate an eighth level Mystic Immortal from an enemy army. After all, once they took action, they would face the resistance of an army.

Under the army immortal array, individual strength will be greatly suppressed. Although most of the Devil Clan’s immortals in the army in front of him were only Heavenly Immortals and True Immortals, as well as some Golden Immortals, once they formed an exclusive army immortal array and were controlled by a Mystic Immortal, their combat strength would catch up to the peerless immortal realm.

Even third level peerless immortals might not be able to gain an advantage, but for experts above third level peerless immortals, accepting this bounty was nothing.

The moment Shen Ping approached the army, he attacked brazenly. As the aura around him erupted, by the time the bounty target reacted, a spear tip had already appeared in his pupils.

When the Primordial Chaos Spear stabbed out, the body of the eighth level Mystic Immortal was shattered by the magical power of the strange beast. His true soul power was completely annihilated under the powerful attack, and his eyes instantly dimmed.

“Enemy attack, enemy attack!!”

The other members of the army came back to their senses and hurriedly went to form the immortal formation. Shen Ping did not even look at it. He took away the signature weapon and corpse of this Devil Clan’s expert and turned around to leave.

The other two bounties were easily completed. On top of that, he had to familiarize himself with the environment of the battlefield.

It only took a total of a month. This speed was astonishing. Even the powerful late-stage peerless immortals in the main city couldn’t complete three bounties in such a short period of time.

However, to Shen Ping, killing three Mystic Immortals did not even use 10% of his strength. During this period, he did not erupt with the power of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao.

Standing in the wooden pavilion in the manor, he looked at the rain curtain naturally formed by the immortal array in the cave abode. There was a hint of contemplation between his brows.

“From peak peerless immortal to immortal king, apart from the transformation of one’s true soul power, what’s more important is to completely compress the immortal spiritual energy in one’s body into high concentrations of immortal energy. Then, after being tempered by various rare resources, one’s body will finally be refined into a pure immortal essence sage body. This physique is almost formed from pure high concentration energy. It can easily communicate with the immortal spiritual energy in the immortal Dao territory. Even if it collapses, as long as a trace of true soul power exists, it can quickly absorb the immortal spiritual energy in the world to recover.

“As far as I’m concerned, my true soul power has long transformed into an Immortal King. All that’s left is to slowly temper it and then find that trace of opportunity to finally transform into the Immortal Essence Sage Body!”
