Chapter 74: Very Greedy

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Waves of cold wind swept in through the skylight. It was bone-chilling.

Shen Ping walked out of the quiet room and stood there for a moment. His slightly excited mood gradually calmed down.

There were still a few months before his metal and wood attribute spiritual root could transform. But the speed at which he absorbed the spirit liquid was getting faster and faster. According to this speed, he would only need two months to absorb a drop. This meant that he was not far from breaking through to the eighth level of Qi Refinement.

“Fire, Earth Spiritual Root.” He hesitated, but he quickly made a decision.

Buzz-

At this moment, the Communication Talisman vibrated.

It was Shopkeeper Chen’s voice from the Spring Embroidery Pavilion. “Talisman Master Shen, the owner is going to the cave abode ruins in the Cloud Mountain Swamp in a few days. At that time, there will be three Foundation Establishment Cultivators going together. They’re mainly familiarizing themselves with the situation in the periphery. She asked me to ask if you’re willing to come with us.”

…..

At this point, he added, “Now, more and more cultivators have discovered Dharma artifacts, medicinal pills, talismans, and even Dharma treasures in the cave abode ruins. If we wait a little longer, I’m afraid we won’t be able to find anything good.”

Shen Ping frowned. Even though he had been staying in the house these days, he could not block the news of the cave abode ruins. Mu Jin, Shopkeeper Ding, Shopkeeper Chen, and other familiar faces, as well as Alchemist Feng in the courtyard, were all talking about this.

“I appreciate Senior Chen’s kindness, but I’m focused on pursuing the Dao of Talismans. I really don’t like to take risks to explore.” He replied seriously. The words of Bai Yuying’s younger brother seemed to ring in his ears. No matter what happens, don’t leave Cloud Mountain Parlour.

Previously, Shen Ping did not know what this meant, but now he understood. Humans die for wealth, and birds die for food. The cave abode ruins had only been opened for a short period of time, but there were already so many things. How could the rogue cultivators sit still?

Opportunity.

The hope of building a foundation.

Longevity.

These things were holding the souls of rogue cultivators. Even if they sensed danger, there would always be a voice in their hearts saying, “Go, just go once. It’s fine. I can’t be so unlucky, right? What if I get a dharma treasure and a rare treasure?”

Cultivators were also humans. It was very difficult to resist such temptation. Not to mention that there were so many successful examples around them.

Shopkeeper Chen’s voice quickly sounded out once more. “For Talisman Master Shen to have such attainments in the Dao of Talismans, this Dao Heart is precious and commendable. Unfortunately, my bones can’t withstand the torment, otherwise, I’ll definitely make a trip!”

He ended the transmission.

Shen Ping shook his head, but he thought to himself that Bai Yuying’s younger brother seemed to really know something very deep. How did he know what faction was behind it?

Tap, tap, tap.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded on the wooden stairs. He was stunned. He turned around and saw Yu Yan in a robe. She had been in seclusion in the quiet room for several months.

Yu Yan seemed to be undergoing a transformation, especially her temperament. In the past, she looked cold on the outside, but her heart was as intense as fire. At this moment, she seemed to have been reborn from the flames. Even though her brows were as calm as water, she seemed to have thousands of charms.

“Husband…” She only spoke, yet Shen Ping seemed to have heard the voices of Wang Yun, Bai Yuying, and Luo Qing mixed together and kept echoing in his ears. His foundation-establishment divine sense shook. The voice suddenly disappeared.

Phew.

Suppressing the desire in his heart, he could not help but ask, “Why did you come out?”

Yu Yan walked forward and said worriedly, “I received a message from the other cultivators of the hunting group. They said that a cave abode ruins in the Cloud Mountain Swamp was discovered. Many cultivators in the market went over. The few late-stage Qi Refinement cultivators of the hunting group did not receive a response from me, so they went straight there. I heard that one of them accidentally obtained a special top-notch Dharma artifact and his strength increased greatly. I was worried that you would be affected. When I saw the message, I immediately came out.”

Shen Ping said solemnly, “Don’t worry, 1 won’t go. Do you think it’s strange too?”

The two of them walked downstairs as they spoke.

“It’s too easy. Although many rogue cultivators have died, it’s too easy to obtain the things in the cave abode.”

Shen Ping nodded and sighed. “Dharma treasures are moving. Recently, the True Treasure Pavilion has already released news that they welcome those rogue cultivators to the True Treasure Pavilion to sell items. They guarantee that they will give a satisfactory price. The other shops in the market have all bought it.”

“As long as the rogue cultivators can come out of the ruins alive, it won’t be difficult for them to build their foundation in the future.” Yu Yan glanced at Shen Ping seductively from the corner of her eyes. She leaned forward slightly and wrapped her arms around Shen Ping casually. The sweet grapefruits in front of her robe was about to leave a mark. I’m just afraid that you won’t be able to withstand this greed.”

Shen Ping lowered his eyes and sniffed the faint smell on Yu Yan’s body. He gritted his teeth and said, “I’m very greedy now!”

Yu Yan breathed in the hot air that assaulted her face. Her cheeks were rosy. “Me too. It’s just that this cultivation technique is too powerful.” As she spoke, she suddenly tried her best to suppress something. “I can’t suppress it. No, I-I…”

As she spoke, she flashed straight into the kitchen.

Shen Ping was speechless. However, he sniffed and seemed to have a different smell. He looked at Yu Yan’s previous position and came to a realization.

“Husband, don’t appear in front of me. I’m afraid all my efforts will be in vain.” Yu Yan’s voice came from the kitchen.

Shen Ping immediately used his strong willpower to step on the wooden stairs. He could tell that Yu Yan’s cultivation technique had yet to be mastered. When he went upstairs, he kept muttering, “One sheep, two sheep. I sleep with sheep. No, I sleep with sheep…”

The more he muttered, the more chaotic it became. When he stood at the corner, he cursed, “F*ck, I’m not saying it anymore!” As he spoke, he strode towards the main room.

The next day, Shen Ping brought his wife and concubine out of the house to relax in the small courtyard. Ever since the cave abode ruins was opened, the small courtyard was deserted. Now, only Shen Ping and Alchemist Feng were left.

“Talisman Master Shen is really carefree.” Looking at Shen Ping, who was chatting and laughing with Wang Yun and Bai Yuying, Alchemist Feng’s tone was filled with envy. He sat on a chair and basked in the winter sun. He also had a Dharma feather fan in his hand.

“Alchemist Feng is even more comfortable.” Shen Ping said with a smile.

Alchemist Feng shook his head. “How can I be satisfied? I’ve failed to break through to become a high-level alchemist consecutively. I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult in my life. To be honest, Talisman Master Shen, if not for the fact that I’m really not good at fighting, I might have to go to the cave abode in the Cloud Mountain Swamp to fight.”

Shen Ping’s expression changed slightly. “Didn’t Fellow Daoist Mu invite you to go together last time?”

Alchemist Feng chuckled, “How can I not see what Mu Yushuang is thinking? It’s fine if I don’t encounter danger, but if I encounter danger…”

He didn’t finish. However, Shen Ping already understood the final meaning. Dao companions in this world could not be trusted easily. Without benefits to maintain, no one would care about the safety of others.

“Talisman Master Shen. I’m moving out of here in mid-June next year.” Alchemist Feng glanced at Shen Ping’s wife and concubine before closing his eyes and not saying anything else.

Shen Ping sighed in his heart. He knew that Alchemist Feng had accepted his fate. This old alchemist, who was conscientiously determined to break through to a high-level alchemist and yearned to build his foundation, would also marry and take concubines like him in the future.

He looked at Alchemist Feng.

He thought of the old pagoda tree in the backyard of the Spring Embroidery Pavilion. Although it had experienced time and absorbed spiritual energy day and night, it could not transform into a spiritual plant in the end.

After taking a breather, they went back to the house. Shen Ping’s heart calmed down..
