Chapter 575: 484 Twenty Years (Request for Monthly Pass)_1

Time flies, and twenty years have passed.

Tianyuan City, Tianyuan Garden.

Yin Jie, Yin Qing, Yin Shi, Tuo Shan, Tuna, Wu Hao, and several other Soul Transformation Cultivators were gathered in a cyan stone pavilion, discussing something.

"With the addition of the Flying Feather Tribe and the Thunderclap Clan, we can definitely solve the problem of the Human Clan."

Yin Shi spoke with fervor.

"I hope you keep your promise this time, defeat the Human Cultivators in the Tianyuan Realm, and help us take down the Tianji Realm!"

Wu Hao said in a deep voice.

The Flying Feather Tribe paid a hefty price to get the Thunderclap Clan to agree to help.

When they broke the seal, intending to wipe out the fifth-order Vajra Beetles, a mutated fifth-order Vajra Beetle appeared and killed two Soul Transformation Cultivators.

They also wounded the fifth-order Vajra Beetle, but the creature fled into areas with many spatial rifts. Unable to catch it, they had no choice but to strengthen the seal and come to support the Tianyuan Tribe.

"Among the Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Human Clan, the most difficult to deal with are Lin Xiang, Shen Long, and the Heavenly Thunder Monarch. We will take care of Shen Long, and the others are up to you."

A slender woman in a green dress began to speak.

Yi Yue, early stage of Soul Transformation, from the Thunderclap Clan.

Initially, they planned to attack the Tianji Realm, but without a safe spatial node leading to it, a defeat could possibly bring the war to the Hundred Spirits Realm. The Tianyuan Tribe sending someone to ask for help again suited their plans perfectly.

Currently, the Tianyuan Tribe was significantly weakened. If they won, the Thunderclap Clan and the Flying Feather Tribe would gain plenty of resources, and if they lost, they would simply retreat to their own realms. After all, the battlefield was in the Tianyuan Realm, and turning it into ruins was of no concern to them.

The Flying Feather Tribe dispatched five Soul Transformation Cultivators, and the Thunderclap Clan dispatched four, along with hundreds of thousands of cultivators from the Flying Feather Tribe to support the Tianyuan Tribe.

Of course, they wouldn’t help for free. Upon arrival, they demanded a significant amount of cultivation resources, which the Tianyuan Tribe’s higher-ups didn’t dare refuse and conceded seventy percent.

"Otherwise, if they don’t come, we can stay in Tianyuan City and avoid any proactive attacks."

Tuna suggested.

"Dragging it out is fine too, we can recover and breed a few more Soul Transformation Cultivators and slowly wear them down."

Tuo Shan expressed his approval.

"If the delay is too long, another mutated fifth-order Vajra Beetle might appear. It’s better to resolve the issue with the Human Clan quickly! Even if Shen Long is powerful, he’s only in the early Soul Transformation stage. Fairy Yi and the rest of us can join forces to handle him."

Wu Hao frowned as he spoke.

The Human Clan was their common enemy, yet their interests varied. The Tianyuan Tribe wanted to repel the Humans, while the Flying Feather Tribe sought safety for their people.

"The Humans probably don’t know yet that the Thunderclap Clan has joined the battle. You engage with the Human Cultivators, and we’ll suddenly show up on the battlefield, aiming to kill or severely injure some Human Soul Transformation Cultivators. Taoist Friends Yin, Wu, and I will focus on Shen Long. After twenty years of recuperation, the Humans must have also recovered a lot of their strength—and don’t forget, Shen Long is still a fifth-order Alchemist."

Yi Yue shared her opinion.

Both the Flying Feather Tribe and the Thunderclap Clan hoped that the Tianyuan Tribe would counterattack and resolve the issue with the Human Clan quickly, while the Goldscale Clan and the Purple Charm Clan preferred to drag it out.

"What all of you said makes sense, and as Fairy Yi pointed out, it’s been so many years, and the Human Clan must have recovered a fair bit of their vitality. It’s very likely that new Soul Transformation Cultivators have emerged, with Shen Long being one such example. Let us counterattack now!"

Yin Jie said in a solemn voice.

The Soul Transformation Cultivators from the Flying Feather Tribe and the Thunderclap Clan together numbered nine, giving them considerable say. The Tianyuan Tribe didn’t want to drag it out either. While they were recovering, so were the Humans.

"Indeed! The Human Clan has many talented individuals. Shen Long is an Alchemist, Han Feng is an Artifact Refiner, Qin Yue is a Talisman Maker, and Jiang Xueying is an Array Master. If we talk about the speed of recuperating vitality, we definitely can’t match the Humans."

Yin Qing heartily agreed.

Most Soul Transformation Cultivators expressed their agreement, leaving Tuo Shan and Tuna with little room to object. They began discussing specific battle plans, deciding to send three Soul Transformation Cultivators to contain Shen Long and even bringing a Blood Soul Talisman.

Two hours later, twenty Soul Transformation Cultivators led hundreds of thousands of cultivators to launch an attack on Three Saints City.

...

Three Saints City, Spirit Control Garden, in a practice room.

Shen Long sat cross-legged on a red meditation cushion, his body enveloped in a layer of yellow radiance, eyes slightly closed.

After a while, the yellow radiance around Shen Long dissipated, and he opened his eyes, exhaling a long breath of turbid air.

Shen Long had taken more than twenty Jiuyan Pills and his mana had improved significantly, yet he was still in the early stage of Divinity Transformation.

He sensed something, entered the Myriad Beasts Tower, and arrived at the fourth floor.

A golden thunderbolt flashed, and the Thunder Roc appeared before Shen Long. It was still in the late fourth stage, which wasn’t surprising.

Two thunder attribute fifth-stage Demon Cores were still insufficient for it to advance to the fifth stage. Mainly because its lifespan hadn’t reached a thousand years. The Fire Qilin Beast, the Swallowing Sea Whale, and the Human-Faced Dove had spent over a thousand years, devouring a massive amount of their kin, to barely advance to the fifth stage.

If there were no thunder attribute fifth-stage Demon Cores, the Thunder Roc could still have a chance to strike at the fifth stage after cultivating for seven to eight hundred years.

"Master!"

The Thunder Roc called out in greeting.

"Thunder attribute fifth-stage Demon Cores are quite rare, but I have already sent people to be on the lookout for them,"

Shen Long said and took out two thousand-year-old Golden Thunder Grasses to feed the Thunder Roc.

"Master, now when I use Thunder Escape, I can cover even greater distances in a single instantaneous movement."

The Thunder Roc said proudly.

"Thunder Escape is indeed powerful, but I’m not bad myself."

The voice of the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon sounded.

As soon as the voice fell, a gust of gloomy wind blew by, and the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon appeared out of nowhere. It was also in the late fourth stage.

Shen Long took out two thousand-year-old Profound Yin Grasses to feed the Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon.

"You each have your strengths, there’s no need to compete for superiority,"

Shen Long said with a smile.

"That won’t do, as the master’s Life-Bound Spirit Bird, I should be more powerful than it,"

The Thunder Roc said with pride.

"Hmph, I may not be the master’s Life-Bound Spirit Bird, but I won’t lose to you,"

The Nine-Headed Ghost Pigeon was not willing to concede either.

They both thought they were better than the other and were unwilling to be outdone by the other.

Shen Long was already accustomed to their rivalry. He moved on to the fifth floor, where a vast glacier appeared before him, an icy wind blowing.

A plethora of white snowflakes drifted down from the high sky; the temperature here was very low.

After advancing to the Divinity Transformation Stage, Shen Long could enter the fifth floor. The fifth floor was a massive glacier, ideal for nurturing ice attribute Spirit Beasts.

A dragon’s roar that resounded through heaven and earth rang out, a blinding white light flared up in front of Shen Long, and the Ice Flood Dragon appeared. It was currently also in the late fourth stage.

"Master, you’ve come."

The Ice Flood Dragon’s tone was filled with joy.

Shen Long nodded and took out two thousand-year-old Profound Ice Flowers to feed the Ice Flood Dragon.

After it was able to speak human language, communication with the Ice Flood Dragon became much easier. He had planted a vast array of ice attribute Spiritual Medicine on the fifth floor.

Shen Long did a round of the fifth floor and found that the Spiritual Medicine and Spirit Fruit trees were growing well, with no abnormalities, so he left the Myriad Beasts Tower.

He took out a Messaging Plate shining with red light, inserted a spell into it, and Han Feng’s voice came through, "Taoist Friend Shen, the Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure you requested has been refined. Shall I send someone to deliver it to you?"

"No need, I’ll come to get it myself!"

Shen Long replied.

"Alright, then I’ll brew some tea and wait for you to come over."

Han Feng said.

Shen Long put away the Messaging Plate and stepped out.
