Chapter 977: Who Are You Extorting? (1)

Editor: Henyee Translations

On the muddy road, there was a caravan of beast carriages heading towards Chaotic Peak City. These beast carriages were Genesis Beasts nurtured by Chaotic Peak Mountain and could adapt to the environment of the mountain. If it were any other demonic beast or creature, they would easily be disturbed by the unique aura of Chaotic Peak Mountain and become violent.

Flying with Great Dao treasures was no different from suicide here. Although Shen Ping was not worried about the past Realm Bandits, he would avoid as much trouble as possible. Who knew if these bandits were at the late stage of the Initial Dao Realm?

Anyway, there’s nothing wrong with being careful.

Therefore, he joined this caravan heading to Chaotic Peak Mountain. 20 Genesis Crystals for one person. So he, Immortal Venerable Yao, and Immortal Venerable Luan paid a total of 60 Genesis Crystals.

The beast carriage was very slow. It was like an ox cart in the mortal world. It was just that no one complained about it being too slow. Safety is of utmost importance.

Shen Ping and the two Immortal Venerables squeezed together in a car with a simple hood. Immortal Venerable Luan complained, “Did this caravan do it on purpose? They already got the Genesis Beast Carriage, but they didn’t expand the space in the car or forge it into an immortal artifact or something. Why do we feel like mortals?!”

Immortal Venerable Yao glanced at her, “Sister Luan, just be content. This car is made of special stone and can withstand a Venerable Sovereign’s full-strength attack. If there’s more space to forge, you’ll have to add spatial crystal materials. That kind of luxury car is even more expensive. Even if the two of us are sold, we won’t be able to gather enough.”

Immortal Venerable Luan naturally knew this. She deliberately said, “Sister Yao, I’ve long sold myself to Fellow Daoist Shen.”

Immortal Venerable Yao immediately fell silent. Shen Ping hugged Immortal Venerable Luan’s waist. “What are you talking about? We’re the first to come out. Besides, it’s just some Genesis Crystals.”

“Genesis Crystals are resources. Fellow Daoist Shen, you’re strong and don’t care, but over the years, we’ve experienced the hardships of the bottom. In order to earn Genesis Crystals, many Immortal Venerables and even Venerable Sovereigns don’t care about their reputation. Moreover… there are many who do that kind of sex business.”

Immortal Venerable Luan said in a low voice, “The competition in this business is also very intense.”

Immortal Venerable Yao sighed and said, “It’s indeed difficult. I’ve never experienced this feeling when I cultivated in the past, but for the Great Dao, it’s worth it no matter how hard it is.”

Seeing that the two of them seemed to have been worn down by life here, Shen Ping couldn’t help but shake his head. Chaotic Peak Mountain was indeed a training ground. Although this place gave many Immortal Venerables hope of breaking through to the Venerable Sovereign realm, it also ground down their morale.

After all, although any Immortal Venerable in the realm could not be considered to be at the peak, they were still second only to one person. How could they have suffered like this?

Not to mention Immortal Venerable Yao and Immortal Venerable Luan. One of them came from an immortal family, and the other was a divine beast. Their bloodlines were noble. Although their cultivation path was not smooth-sailing, they had never experienced the bottom.

As they chatted, the caravan outside stopped. He lifted the curtain. A caravan guard said, “Fellow Daoists, don’t worry. It’s not an attack by the Realm Bandits. We’ll just rest for a while before continuing on our way.”

As soon as the guard finished speaking, a steward of the caravan said, “It’s a long journey from Black Swamp Market Town to Chaotic Peak City. I don’t know how many dangers we’ll encounter during this period. Our caravan will protect Fellow Daoists, but it’s inevitable that we’ll consume a lot of energy along the way. Therefore, the price has increased by five Genesis Crystals for each person!”

Many Venerable Sovereigns on the caravan frowned. Wasn’t this daylight robbery! Immortal Venerable Luan gritted her teeth, “How shameless. Black-hearted merchant, you actually asked for money halfway. If we give it, I’m afraid we’ll have to give it again and again.”

Immortal Venerable Yao frowned. “Fellow Daoist Shen, I’m afraid the caravan’s idea is on us. What should we do?”

In fact, everyone could tell that the caravan was harvesting them like chives. As for whether he would go to Chaotic Peak City or not, it was another matter. Shen Ping did not expect this caravan to be so brazen. Could it be that they were relying on the three mid-stage Initial Dao Stage leaders, guard captains, and other experts in the team?

One had to know that among the Venerable Sovereigns on board, there were also two at the mid-stage of the Initial Dao Realm.

It was like this when the caravan was promoting it back then, so many Venerable Sovereigns felt that this trip was relatively safe. Therefore, even if it was 20 Genesis Crystals, they gritted their teeth and took it out. Who knew that this would happen halfway!

“Let’s see what the other Venerable Sovereigns will do.” Shen Ping gave the two women a look to calm down. He naturally did not take the caravan seriously, but he had never thought of standing out.

Not long after, one Venerable Sovereign after another braced themselves and took out Genesis Crystals. They were at a disadvantage. Especially when they found out that the mid-stage Initial Dao Realm expert on board was also a member of the caravan, the other one obediently surrendered. When it was Shen Ping’s turn, they followed the crowd. Soon, the caravan set off again.

“Hmph, I seriously suspect that the past Realm Bandits are colluding with this group of merchants. Perhaps when we’re halfway there, some Realm Bandits will plunder us and take the opportunity to extort a sum of money!” Immortal Venerable Luan said. In the end, halfway through the journey, her words were proven right.

Immortal Venerable Yao was speechless. “What a jinx.”

“I’m not jinxing it. This caravan has no intention of letting us live to reach Chaotic Peak Mountain. It’s too evil!”

“Even if you understand, most Venerable Sovereigns have to pay.”

Listening to the exchange between the two women, Shen Ping directly used his Pupil of Flame Beast and had the intention to attack. Soon, Immortal Venerable Yao’s experience in the next few days flickered like a slide.

The stronger the target was when using the Pupil of Flame Beast, the less time he could predict and spy on them. If it was a Venerable Sovereign, with his current innate ability, he could only check for a day.
