Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife

Chapter 1075: Old News of Huaishan (2)

With that, he lay in Madame Qing Yan’s arms and fell asleep. Using True Spirit techniques consumed quite a bit of energy for him. He hoped that the River God would be more powerful. In addition, he also wanted to see if he could complete the mission by killing that snake demon with his help.

The River God’s heart shook. He didn’t turn around, but he controlled the surrounding water and quickly investigated who sent the voice transmission. This type of voice transmission was extremely brilliant, and it was probably something that even Mountain Lord Huai was unable to accomplish.

“Remnants of an ancient blood crocodile? I’ve never heard of a Blood Crocodile in the eight hundred miles of Huaishui that I control. Could it be the Shallow Crocodile Bend at the intersection of Huaishui and the branch of the Ze River? There are many giant crocodiles entrenched there.

“I have to send my subordinates to investigate. No, I have to investigate it myself. Once the bloodline of such a great demon matures, it will probably wreak havoc and cause chaos. At that time, it will be my calamity!”

In this chaotic world, every minor deity was extremely cautious, because no one knew when their calamity would arrive.

Once he returned to the Huai Mansion, life became dull. He was either drinking milk or soaking in medicinal baths every day. Although he could take advantage of her and measure the amount of milk that Xin Xiang had, to a Dao Origin Realm expert like Shen Ping, it was just a diversion.

Five months passed. The virtual frame has changed.

[Under your transmission, the River God of Huaishui exterminated the remnant bloodlines of the twelve great demons in the Shallow Crocodile Bend.]

[You have obtained the Thaumaturgy, Divine Eye.]

He laughed, though in the eyes of others, it was just a silly laugh of a baby. He received the reward. Shen Ping only spent a few days cultivating the Divine Eye. He circulated his magic power, and an illusory Divine Eye appeared on his forehead.

“Look further! Further!”

All the places in Huaishan Prefecture could not hide from his Divine Eye. The heroic souls of the ancestral hall seemed to have sensed something amiss, but they could not tell where the source was. The Divine Eye could only see the range of Huaishan Prefecture, mainly because his strength was too low.

“Unfortunately, it can’t compare to my Pupil of Sea Beast!”

He was a little emotional. The various talents of the strange beast were simply too heaven-defying. If he could obtain the strange beast talent here, the so-called crocodile ancestor would be nothing more than a dish.

Shen Ping used the Divine Eye to play around and treat it as accumulating divine ability experience. Through the Divine Eye, he could see the lives of every member of the family in the mansion.

There were maids who had men, and there were also clansmen who did bad things. There were also people who secretly met. The Third Madame did not do much. He continued to observe like this, and in less than three months, he discovered that Third Madame had colluded with demons. There were actually two demons by her side, or rather, demons that were constantly nurtured with the power of the Crocodile Bead.

“The Third Madame is really bold. The ancestral hall’s heroic souls are guarding the mansion, and occasionally, they can sense the aura of a demon. It should be related to that crocodile bead!

“It’s just that I can’t obtain more information. Otherwise, I can find out where this crocodile bead was obtained. Did the Third Madame obtain it by chance, or did the crocodile ancestor have a series of backup plans?”

Shen Ping pondered. From what he know so far, the true spirit of the crocodile ancestor was constantly reincarnated through bloodline inheritance, and the power in the crocodile bead was a method arranged by him to quickly recover his strength. The other party had always wanted to become the Demon Ancestor of Huai Mountain and obtain the imperial title. He could not figure this out for the time being.

However, there were also some guesses. It was very likely that there was something special about Huai Mountain. Otherwise, there was something hidden here by the crocodile ancestor and he had to become Mountain Lord Huai to take that thing away. He died in every single simulation, so he had no way of knowing the crocodile ancestor’s main goal.

“I can’t always rely on the virtual frame. I have the memories of my previous life’s reincarnation, which is my greatest advantage. These days, I’ve been cultivating the Taiyi Scripture, the 72 Thaumaturgy Transformations and the Divine Eye, together with the information I obtained from Madame Qing Yan and Mountain Lord Huai, it’s enough for me to create some methods!”

The True Spirit communication was used after adapting to the rules under the influence of the supreme stone tablet. After all, when he was still alive, he was a Mid-stage Dao Origin Realm expert who had grasped 60% of the top Great Dao and the Dao of Fate.

Although it could not compare to the Dao Lord, Dao Lords could not awaken their memories here. Perhaps they could grow to a certain extent, but they definitely could not do so in the early stages.

“I should accumulate some magic power and true spirit power.”

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed.

During this period, there were also some members of the Huai Family who were born with bloodlines and were blessed by the ancestral hall to become members of the Huai Family. However, they did not hold any blessing banquets. Only Shen Ping, the legitimate son of Mountain Lord Huai, could enjoy this honor.

Late at night, Madame Qing Yan and Xin Xiang had fallen asleep. Shen Ping used the magic power in his body to condense a lifelike body, which had a sense of control over the soul power that he had split out. It was enough to do simple things usually.

[Consumed 100 points to start the counterattack mission.]

[Evil parasitism has appeared in Huaishan Prefecture. Please eliminate it in half a year.]

Seeing this mission, he knew it was a waste of energy. This mission was basically a future mission. There were no Evils in Huaishan Prefecture now. He could only wait for half a year to automatically fail before he could start the next mission. Fortunately, these missions did not last long. Otherwise, it would take a long time just to fail.

He used the 72 Thaumaturgy Transformations and turned into a fly. This transformation technique was very magical. He had used his magic power to distort the surrounding space and shrink himself into the form of a fly. In fact, he was still him and had not changed much. To be honest, this was like a smokescreen.

Soon, he arrived at the area where the Third Madame was. There was a special energy barrier here that even the heroic souls of the ancestral hall could not detect. The fly can’t get in at all. So it turned into a strand of hair and floated to the house under the urging of the wind.

The Third Madame is dressing up. Although this woman could not compare to Huanyue, she was still charming and enchanting. Otherwise, she would not have been doted on by Huai Cheng.

“Madame, the young master still refuses to eat.”

“If he refuses to eat, think of a way. If you can’t think of a way, I’ll feed you to him!” The maid was so frightened that her face turned pale. The Third Madame sneered, “What’s the use of raising something that doesn’t know how to put in effort?”

Shen Ping stayed for half a day. Finally, the Third Madame entered a cubicle. In the cubicle, she opened the basement, which was worshiped with wooden tokens. She was praying with sincerity. There were faint incense sticks gathering on the wooden token.

Unfortunately, there was nothing special about it. He stayed for several days in a row then Shen Ping returned to his room. The Third Madame would at most give herself away a little. She would not be able to find anything deeper.

So the next day, he arrived at Huaishui and used his magic power to disguise himself as a black-robed man. Then, he raised his hand and formed a hand seal that had Dao runes circulating.

If he became an Earth Immortal, he would be able to activate the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. But through simulations, it took him four to five hundred years to become a Perfected Lord. He was still far from becoming an Earth Immortal. Clearly, this was due to the Huai Family’s limited resources.

It was true that a small prefecture like Huaishan Prefecture did not have any resources that could be taken seriously.

“Come out and see me, River God!”

The river surged and quickly condensed into the image of a middle-aged man. He cupped his hands and said, “This little god greets Exalted One.”

Shen Ping asked, “Let me ask you, what’s so special about Huai Mountain?”

The River God was stunned for a moment. “What are you talking about?”

“Last time, I asked you to kill twelve great demon bloodlines. You should know that Huaishan Prefecture is not as simple as it looks. Do you know any secrets from the ancient times here?”

The River God was enlightened and shook his head repeatedly. “I’ve only become the River God for a short time and don’t know any more secrets. You can ask the mountain god. That mountain god has been conferred the title for more than two thousand years. Before that, he had followers and knew more.”

Shen Ping could only come to Huai Mountain. He stomped his feet and used his magic power to summon the mountain god. Ordinary magic power was definitely not enough, but with the disguise of a true spirit, it could make one’s magic power incomparably rich. These mountain gods did not dare to offend a Perfected Lord.

He asked the same question.

The Mountain God said in a low voice, “I don’t know much either. However, before the Huai Family took over the Huaishan Prefecture, there were often evil and demonic creatures here. Most of these things were gathered by the remnant thoughts of all living beings, but under normal circumstances, they wouldn’t have intelligence. Therefore, there might be something that can affect this area.”
