Eternal Life Begins with Taking a Wife - Chapter 981
Chapter 981: Powerful Opponent (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
She met Shen Ping’s gaze. The woman’s body trembled, and fear appeared in her eyes. That fatty was a mid-stage Initial Dao Realm expert. Even if he faced a late-stage Initial Dao Realm expert, he could fight. Yet he was easily killed by the man in front of her. His strength was simply terrifying.
Facing such an expert, she did not dare to hide anything and told him the whole story of the scroll. It turned out that her brother had obtained this scroll from a large chamber of commerce. It was precisely because of this that he was punished and sent to the mine.
“What’s the Chamber of Commerce called?”
“Chaotic Summit Chamber of Commerce.”
The woman told him the truth.
Shen Ping narrowed his eyes. The Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce was the faction that controlled the Chaotic Peak City. Just like the Myriad World Pavilion, they came from the sects and factions of the endless world. However, behind the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce was a powerful family. After discovering the Chaotic Peak Mountain, they used this place as a stronghold of the dozen or so nearby realms. Therefore, strictly speaking, the dozen or so nearby realms were the jurisdiction of the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce.
He had obtained this information from the Myriad World Pavilion. He even suspected that the group of fellows who had invaded the immortal Dao territory in the ancient times came from the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. However, he did not know why they did not follow up.
“What kind of strength does your brother have to be able to steal something from the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce and not be killed?” he continued to ask.
The woman quickly explained, “My younger brother is the subordinate of a female deacon of the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. This scroll is actually very ordinary. There’s nothing special about it, so they punished him slightly.”
Shen Ping was enlightened. Then, he threw some Genesis Crystals to the woman. “Alright, you can leave.”
“Thank you, Senior. Thank you, Senior.” After saying that, the woman quickly left, afraid that Shen Ping would change his mind.
Looking at her back, he frowned. He did not expect the clues to be transferred to the members of the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. If he investigated on his own, it would be difficult not to attract attention. The Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce’s background was not low.
He thought about it.
Shen Ping first returned to Chaotic Peak City. The Myriad Mother Genesis Stone at the mining area would only be nurtured in a few hundred years. When he arrived at the courtyard, Immortal Venerable Luan and Immortal Venerable Yao, who had been worried, heaved a sigh of relief. That night, he made up for it and came to the Myriad World Pavilion again the next day.
Currently, the only way to quickly obtain information was the Myriad World Pavilion. It was still Fellow Daoist Mu who received Shen Ping.
“It seems that Daoist Brother Shen has gained something.”
Shen Ping said noncommittally, “I want to know the information of Deacon Meng of the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce.”
Fellow Daoist Mu nodded. “Wait a moment.”
Not long after, she handed Shen Ping a jade slip. His True Spirit swept out as lots of information flooded in.
Meng Ji came from the Meng Family of the Skyflame Realm of the Endless World. Her strength was at the late-stage of the Initial Dao Realm, and she had many powerful secret techniques. She was one of the core controllers of the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce and rarely left Chaotic Peak City.
He frowned. Meng Ji was actually from the Skyflame Great Realm and came from the same realm as that expert. Perhaps there was some connection between them.
“Fellow Daoist Mu, do you know the Shan Family in the Skyflame Realm?” Shen Ping asked.
Fellow Daoist Mu smiled. “Of course I know. Speaking of which, Chaotic Peak Mountain used to be occupied by the Shan Clan of the Skyflame Great Realm. Something happened later on and the higher-ups stationed there disappeared. In the end, they were replaced by the Meng Clan. This news is free for you.” She said meaningfully, “Meng Ji is very loose. If you want to obtain some clues, you can start from this aspect.”
He left the Myriad World Pavilion.
Shen Ping went straight to the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. If he wanted to get close to Meng Ji, he could only join the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce first. However, compared to other Chambers of Commerce, the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce had very high requirements for guards. They had to at least have the combat strength of the mid-stage Initial Dao Realm.
This was not a problem for him. After showing off a little, he easily passed the test of the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. As he entered the Chamber of Commerce’s base, he used his true soul power to scan the area, but it was quickly blocked by the Great Dao Formation.
“Kid. Don’t casually use your True Spirit to investigate here. The entire encampment is enveloped by the Great Dao Array. If it causes any reaction, don’t blame me for not reminding you. Alright, this is where the guards live. You can stay here or not.
“We will inform you when the Chamber of Commerce goes on a mission. You can come and collect fixed Genesis Crystals every year. If the Chamber of Commerce encounters danger, you have to do your best to protect it. Of course, no one in the surrounding regions dares to attack our Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. Our Chamber of Commerce is different from those small Chambers of Commerce. There are many places to go!”
Listening to these words, Shen Ping’s brows twitched slightly. Could it be that the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce could go to the endless world?
According to the star map given by Lord Yin, it would take five to six hundred years to travel from Chaotic Peak Mountain to the nearest domain in the Endless World, and this was the fastest speed. If they encountered some trouble halfway, it would take more than a thousand years. Sometimes, it would be normal for it to take more than ten thousand years.
Suddenly, there was a commotion around them. Even the steward who led Shen Ping to familiarize himself with the base became respectful.
“Greetings, Miss Meng!”
Shen Ping also turned around and bowed. From the corner of his eye, he sized up Deacon Meng. He did not expect to see her as soon as he arrived at the Chaotic Peak Chamber of Commerce. The other party was accompanied by two handsome and suave men with fawning expressions. Miss Meng of the Third was indeed dressed extremely sexy. She was only wearing a thin veil and only covered the more important areas. She did not hide her Dao Body anywhere else.
“Oh, there’s a new guard today. Come over and let me take a look,” seeming to find Shen Ping unfamiliar, Miss Meng held a fan in her hand and said with a smile.
