"Forgive for what?" Wen Ping asked in return.
"N-nothing." The Red-eyed Giant Ape admitted defeat, feeling that Wen Ping was too terrifying now. "Sect Leader Wen, I was just joking. How could I be soone who holds grudges? You don’t have to return the Golden Shuttle Leaf."
Wen Ping released his grip.
Only then did the Red-eyed Giant Ape breathe a sigh of relief.
"I thought you’d beco docile from planting trees, but you’re still the sa as ever." Wen Ping did not force the Red-eyed Giant Ape to stay, who wanted to leave, and began to ponder the ape’s current realm in his mind, Upper Profound Realm, not bad.
Keeping it just to plant trees was sowhat wasteful.
However, as to how to cultivate it to a higher realm, Wen Ping thought it would be best to wait until its wild nature faded.
After all, there’s still 300 years.
If the Red-eyed Giant Ape knew that a single sentence had just ruined its future, it might cry to death.
Once the Red-eyed Giant Ape left, Ling Yun and Hei Ze also followed suit, and Wen Ping imdiately headed to the Jianmu Forest. Upon activating the Changmo Technique, the sensation was utterly exhilarating, as Wood Qi continuously poured into his body.
The feeling was indescribable.
"System, help upgrade the Tingyu Pavilion twice." As Wen Ping sat cross-legged, he directly addressed the system.
[Tingyu Pavilion is being upgraded...]
[Remaining ti: 5 days.]
The system then continued, "The second upgrade will take 10 days; the host can try using the Life Core to possibly reduce the upgrade ti."
"I’ll give it a shot."
Wen Ping took out the Life Core and waved it in his hand.
No response.
"Oh well, half a month it is."
There was no helping it with poor luck.
With his pockets emptied, Wen Ping imdiately felt relieved—so the saying that having no money is the easiest really made sense. He then closed his eyes, sat down, and fully activated the Changmo Technique, absorbing Wood Qi for cultivation.
As the Wood Qi entered his body, his cultivation progress steadily increased. Based solely on Wen Ping’s own perception, the rate of increase definitely rivaled the ninefold augntation of cultivating in the Gravity Field without any discrepancies.
Nearly ninefold cultivation speed is terrifying at the Divine Profound Realm, as many people cannot cross even a small realm throughout their lives.
The Jianmu Forest wasn’t planted in vain.
The White Crystal wasn’t spent in vain either.
The Profound Realm opens the Earth-Breaking ridian Gate on the left hand, but upon reaching the Divine Profound Realm, it is the surcharge ridian gate on the right-hand side that is opened. Wen Ping knew little about the third realm, the Mountain Suppression Realm.
After all, this world was a place of isolated information; there were so connections between adjacent cities, but farther away, it beca quite challenging to contact.
Furthermore, even at the Divine Profound Realm, knowing how to open the veins and how to avoid ridian failure, such thods were generally inaccessible. Therefore, a person at the Upper Profound Realm or a Half-Step Divine Profound must join a force; otherwise, one would have to explore on their own, perhaps never finding it in their lifeti.
Concerning the Mountain Suppression Realm, even fewer knew anything.
After thinking about it carefully in his calm, Wen Ping realized perhaps they didn’t know how to reach the Mountain Suppression; otherwise, using that Jade Pool for decades to only cultivate to a Half-Step Mountain Suppression certainly wasn’t just because of talent limitations.
But after reaching the Divine Profound, he could discern where the next ridian gate was.
Between the chest!
There is a ridian gate there called the Gathering Spirit.
The system only inford him the ridian gate was in the chest, and the term Gathering Spirit was not from the system but sothing he heard from his mother. It was on a night when candlelight flickered; his mother Long Xue sat by the candlestick while his father Wen Yan was absent, and she kept repeating the words ’Gathering Spirit.’
"No wonder the Red-eyed Giant Ape would sign that blood contract!" Wen Ping finally understood; it was not his father who subdued the Red-eyed Giant Ape, nor was his father as almighty as others said, subduing the Demon King rely with the Profound Realm.
A pact to never offend Cangwu City; such an agreent hadn’t occurred in any city.
Even in Huangli City, under the Hundred Sects Alliance’s ear! The Demon Kings outside of Huangli City showed no leniency towards the city’s residents.
"I did think my parents were far away, but I didn’t realize they were so distant. Mother is only 40 years old." If not for encountering the system, the so-called Mountain Suppression—no, not even Mountain Suppression—he might never even touch the Profound Realm in his lifeti.
Moreover, even with the system’s help, the path to Mountain Suppression is still distant.
With a sudden thought, Wen Ping chuckled.
"Isn’t this the legendary case of the short, poor, and ugly wooing a rich and beautiful person?"
This must be the best example of a pig rooting a cabbage in the world.
Unable to hold back his laughter, Wen Ping closed his eyes again and continued to absorb the Wood Qi. He did think the people who took his parents away didn’t have deep malice; otherwise, they wouldn’t just have toppled the Main Hall.
They would have annihilated the entire Immortal Sect!
...
Just like that, a day passed.
With the arrival of Spirit Rice, many people’s habit of feasting at every al began to form again. Early in the morning, everyone gathered in the kitchen, not squeezing ti in the Gravity Field to cultivate, but sharing their cultivation insights.
Most of the discussions were about things like the Fire Snake Skill, Sword Control Skill, and similar topics.
But Yun Liao and the others were discussing different matters.
They discussed more advanced topics concerning the Fire Dragon Skill, Fire Spirit Body, and Fla Anomaly Vein.
Last night, Yu Mo and Zhantian Qingxuan had a sparring match. With the Anomalous Vein, Yu Mo was evenly matched with Zhantian Qingxuan. Yu Mo was in the Middle Profound Realm, and Zhantian Qingxuan was in the Upper Realm; moreover, Zhantian Qingxuan undoubtedly possessed a high-quality One-Star Vortex Map.
But Zhantian Qingxuan still couldn’t defeat Yu Mo, making him even more eager to re-enter the Thousand Layers.
"Why hasn’t the Sect Leader arrived yet?" Seeing that the als were ready, Zhantian Qingxuan looked out the window a few tis but didn’t see any trace of Wen Ping. "Lele, go to Tingyu Pavilion and find the Sect Leader."
Yang Lele nodded and left the kitchen.
However, after calling out for a long ti beneath the Tingyu Pavilion, there was no response from Wen Ping.
Helplessly, she went to places like Churao Mountain to search, but still couldn’t find Wen Ping.
"The Sect Leader can’t be found." After returning, Yang Lele could only state the fact, even if it sounded sowhat perfunctory, so she added, "Elder, I’ve searched every place."
Zhantian Qingxuan glanced around, "Ah, where could the Sect Leader have gone?"
No choice but to wait.
Until the red sun finally cast its rays through the window, Wen Ping arrived late.
Yun Liao asked, "Sect Leader, where have you been?"
"You guys eat first." Wen Ping ca upstairs but didn’t sit down. "After the al, I have sothing to announce."
With that, Wen Ping left the kitchen.
Even though a night’s cultivation was exhilarating, his clothes were soaked through.
Wen Ping’s departure after arriving seed odd to everyone, so by the ti he returned from the dormitory area, everyone had already finished breakfast, quite quickly.
"Are we opening the Thousand Layers again, Sect Leader?" Yang Lele was always the most enthusiastic one.
"No, today I want to show you sothing new." In Wind Valley, the so-called Vein Technique and Cultivation Technique aren’t just talk. A single White Crystal is indeed expensive, and a task of 500 people has to be completed.
Thus, Wen Ping planned to let them experience the allure of Wind Valley and then decide for themselves whether to proceed.
