A Druid Also Can Cultivate

Chapter 686: Chapter 526: Altar

Qi Ping followed the terrifyingly powerful Golden Crow all the way, flying for more than half a month.

Along the way, Qi Ping encountered numerous Spirit Beast variations and Spiritual Medicines long lost in the river of time, many of which even tempted him.

Bringing these items back to the Star Sea World could elevate everyone’s abilities, including his own, to a whole new level.

This was also the first time he so clearly perceived the specific differences between the two worlds.

Qi Ping even sensed at least five presences that made him feel extremely threatened, but they did not act rashly due to the intimidation of the Bald Golden Crow.

“It seems that without the Dao Fruit powers of the Earth Immortal and Spirit Emperor, there are quite a few presences that could threaten someone of the Integration Stage like me…”

“Just a single Forest Sea Demon Realm is like this, not to mention how many tigers and dragons are hidden across the universe…”

The more he saw, the more Qi Ping put away his pride.

What undefeated resolve, what sweeping through the era with no rival, were not what he should pursue.

To keep a low profile, find ways to acquire more cultivation knowledge and resources, and then quietly cultivate and grow stronger, was his true pursuit. Unless absolutely necessary, he would never expose his identity and strength.

Moreover, although Qi Ping was extremely tempted by the resources of the Forest Sea Demon Realm, he had no intention of plundering.

In his view, only by maintaining long-term friendly relations, and each world leveraging its own advantages to grow stronger together, can they achieve maximum benefit.

“Brother Jin…”

When Qi Ping felt he could no longer keep up, and wanted the Bald Golden Crow to slow down, the Bald Golden Crow finally began to decelerate.

This made Qi Ping secretly sigh in relief.

He strongly suspected the Bald Golden Crow was doing this deliberately, purposely pushing the limits to continue testing his depths.

Especially since the other kept releasing the oppressive aura belonging to the Tier Eight Golden Crow Divine Beast, tormenting him thoroughly.

“What’s wrong, Brother Qi?” The Bald Golden Crow turned back, a hint of schadenfreude flashing in its eyes.

This expression made Qi Ping speechless, this guy really did it on purpose!

However, Qi Ping did not dwell on it, and asked:

“Why so far, how much farther is it?”

Qi Ping even purposely acted as if he was out of breath, fulfilling the big Golden Crow’s wish.

And the Bald Golden Crow seemed to see through Qi Ping’s trick, once again transformed into its original form of a bald, muscular man, and said with a smile:

“We’re almost there, but Brother Qi, I wasn’t deliberately picking on you earlier, it’s the old turtle’s instructions to get you accustomed to this state. This opportunity isn’t easy to take.”

“Hmm? Instructions from Profound Armor senior?” Qi Ping was a bit surprised.

“Otherwise, how could the genuine Golden Crow be someone who would tease friends?” The Bald Golden Crow patted his shiny head and said with conviction.

“Isn’t it?”

Qi Ping could be sure that the behavior of the Bald Golden Crow just now definitely matched his true intentions, in this regard, his Druid perception would not be mistaken.

…

As the Bald Golden Crow said, the two only flew for another hour before reaching their destination.

It was a lake guarded by four sacred mountains, within the lake was an abyss of high-quality Spiritual Liquid, and even Spirit Bodies formed from the extremely concentrated Spiritual Liquid, some of which had auras as high as Tier Seven, and Qi Ping even discovered an aura equivalent to the Mahayana Stage!

“This…” Facing such a large amount of high-quality Spiritual Power, even with Qi Ping’s current composure, he couldn’t help but breathe rapidly.

This kind of energy at such a scale and quality, was one of the things most lacking in the Star Sea World.

Such a vast amount of energy could easily produce a Mahayana Stage cultivator, and even more!

“Could the opportunity Profound Armor senior mentioned not be this?” Qi Ping asked after calming his breath.

Despite the allure of the Spiritual Liquid in front of him, he didn’t think this was the opportunity given by the old turtle Profound Armor.

“Naturally, although these Spiritual Liquids are quite valuable, they don’t catch the old turtle’s eye!” The Bald Golden Crow nodded affirmatively.

Not catching his eye… Qi Ping felt a sense of helplessness, so wealthy?

If he possessed such an amount of Spiritual Liquid, he wouldn’t have to worry about the energy needed to breakthrough to the Mahayana Stage.

Unfortunately, this was someone else’s, so he couldn’t ask for it.

Yet Qi Ping’s greatest interest was in the opportunity, what could it be, that even this Spiritual Liquid couldn’t compare?

At this moment, Qi Ping’s curiosity increased once more.

And the Bald Golden Crow didn’t keep Qi Ping waiting any longer, suddenly his expression became incredibly serious and devout as he quickly formed seals with both hands, vast solar true flames continuously surged into the Spiritual Liquid below.

Immediately, an ancient, sinister black altar raised up from a Spiritual Pool!

What truly made Qi Ping’s scalp tingle was the scarlet blood seeping from the altar, its chilling aura rapidly spreading.

Even at his current realm, Qi Ping felt a fear from life’s instincts.

But this didn’t last long, as four enormous chains like heavenly rivers appeared out of nowhere from the four sacred mountains, forcefully suppressing the altar that was about to move.

Afterwards, Spirit Beast spirits bearing the immense auras of Earth Beast, Phoenix, Kunpeng, and Xuanwu manifested from the chains, their powers flowing through the chains smashed the altar, forcibly suppressing the strange blood back into it.

“What is this?”

The scene before him entirely exceeded his knowledge, especially the altar in the center.

Furthermore, what made Qi Ping even more uneasy was sensing a trace of familiar energy on the sinister altar!

“It’s the altar of the Immortal Alliance!” At this moment, Qi Ping seemed to stop breathing.

This feeling was very faint, without his Druid’s special perception, even relying solely on the means of an Immortal Cultivator wouldn’t detect it!

Although the altar of the Immortal Alliance was countless times weaker than the altar before him, and even looked completely different, Qi Ping could assure that they were certainly of the same origin to some extent!

“This is a Lifebound Magical Artifact of an eerie creature that once invaded the Forest Sea Demon Realm. The cost of that battle was the sacrifice of five demon ancestors to suppress it…”

Then the Bald Golden Crow sighed and said:

“But that was all. This altar cannot be destroyed, cannot be weakened, even if it is suppressed into the cosmic void far away from the Demon Realm, it will still return through mysterious and unpredictable means…”

With the description of the Bald Golden Crow, Qi Ping couldn’t help but feel a shiver down his spine!

He couldn’t help but wonder, those many Immortal Alliance altars he had destroyed before the Realm Battlefield, were they truly destroyed?

This left Qi Ping feeling uneasy, but thinking of the means he had left in the Star Sea World, he stopped dwelling on it. Worrying about things that hadn’t happened was meaningless, the most important thing now was to quickly raise his strength.

And at that moment, a spatial portal filled with wild energy appeared.

The Bald Golden Crow’s voice sounded:

“Brother Qi, the portal cannot remain open long, enter it, and you will learn the full picture of that war, as for what kind of opportunity you can get inside, depends on your abilities…”
