570 Finding Ji Yeyue (1/2)
He certainly had a reason to be happy. These Space-corroding Sects were a type of Primordial Supernatural Sect, with a strange type of toxicity. They gathered together and sprayed venom, even a Lord of Heaven could not withstand it. Their Self-world would be eroded by this poison spray, and that was to say nothing of someone less cultivated than a Lord of Heaven.
Even if they were strong and their attack was fierce, when their space was eroded and broken, they had no place to survive. They suffered badly. To add, the Queen Sect did not possess any more plentiful intelligence, but her strength was enough to contend with a Genuine Immortal of the Venerable Realm. Some Queen Sects had evolved to even have the strength of a Lord of Heaven Realm, so it was very difficult for a Lord of Heaven to enter the nest of Space-corroding Sects.
But this was not the case with Zhou Bao. He has the Infinite Poison Banner. Although this banner was not a fairy weapon, it was a replica of one, an Upper Grade Pure Yang Celestial Device, with the core of a Poison-absorbing Green Bead. Although it was shattered now, the fragments of the Green Beads had already formed a mist which mixed into the Infinite Poison Banner and naturally restrained the Infinite Poison. For this reason, it was basically the nemesis of the Space-corroding Sects. The Space-corroding Sect of this world were seemingly made to refine Zhou Bao's Infinite Poison Banner. In a short about of time, all of the Space-corroding Sects within the thousand-mile periphery were destroyed by Zhou Bao, and his Infinite Poison Banner shone all the more brightly.
”So cool. It really is so cool!” Zhou Bao exclaimed in his heart. At that moment, it was if he had returned to the time where he had frantically used the Poison-absorbing Green Bead to absorb the poison from the legendary venomous insect in South China. It was just like the time he had first refined the Poison Cold Shield.
It was the same type of small, strange insect that he overcame. It really was so cool. Seeing this solidified world, completely covered with Space-corroding Sects, if only he completely exterminated them, he thought, and upgraded their venom, could he really increase the power of his Infinite Poison Banner, and even increase it to near the level of fairy weapons. It was all possible, how could he not be excited?
As Zhou Bao was plundering and killing like mad, these Space-corroding Sects didn't notice anything unusual. They just swarmed towards him wave upon wave. But it was not long before a piercing, shrill hiss filled the space.
”Come on then, Queen Sect!” Zhou Bao did not panic when he heard this hiss, but his expression showed a hint of expectation.
The Queen of the Space-corroding Sect was viciously poisonous. Not only could it melt away space, but it was also devoid of form or matter, and was extremely difficult to defend oneself against. But all Zhou Bao thought about was whether he could absorb the Queen Sect's venom into his Infinite Poison Banner. If he could, then his banner could become even more insidious.
Of course, if he wanted to do this, he first had to vanquish the Queen Sect.
The Queen Space-corroding Sect was several times bigger than common Space-corroding Sects, but as it appeared before Zhou Bao, it was not that huge. It was about the size of an egg, and its entire body was black. Whereas common Space-corroding Sects had one pair of wings, this one had eight, so it was extremely fast. In flight it looked like a black arrowhead, zooming up to Zhou Bao's face.
”Come on!” Zhou Bao quietly shouted, while brandishing the Infinite Poison Banner.
At this time, the Infinite Poison Banner, having no idea how much poison it had absorbed, had almost completely turned cyan and in one swoop covered the Queen Sect.
At the same time, the Queen Sect spurted black venom, and extended its sharp claws to viciously slash at the Infinite Poison Banner.
Its claws were dazzlingly shiny, but Zhou Bao was not intimidated. He just smiled as a black-red Sword Qi was thrust forth, chopping off the claws.
”Buzz——!” The Queen Sect, smothered by the Infinite Poison Banner, let out a blood-curdling screech. It started to struggle out of the banner's hold, but it wasn't easy at all.
This Queen Sect and her tribe had lived in this World-solidifying Skill for tens of thousands of years, and were reasonably powerful. They were supernatural sects of the Venerable Realm, but they had never encountered before such an eccentric and valiant opponent like Zhou Bao. They had no room to resist while under the control of the Infinite Poison Banner. The initial bout of struggling did not last long before all noise subsided. Zhou Bao's Infinite Poison Banner gradually became brighter and brighter, and the cyan light became paler and paler until it was condensed into three cyan talismans.
”It worked! The venom from the Space-corroding Sect will really be of great use to my Infinite Poison Banner!” Zhou Bao was pleased as he withdrew the Infinite Poison Banner. But this time, sensing the queenless Space-corroding Sects becoming restless and fleeing in chaos like headless flies, Zhou Bao looked for the Queen Sect's spirit. Of course, he couldn't let go of this opportunity. He took out the Infinite Poison Banner again. With the essence of the Queen Sect's venom, the banner would have even greater control over the Space-corroding Sect. Within a short time, he would completely exterminate the Space-corroding Sects within the area, leaving only a small space.
”She must be there. I really don't know what Yeyue was carrying that could have drawn so many Space-corroding Sects to come and attack her!”
Zhou Bao's spiritual mind was extremely strong. After clearing the entire space in the World-solidifying Skill, it was very easy for him to find Ji Yeyue's tracks. If at this time she was being cornered by a big swarm of Space-corroding Sect in a thicket of bitter vine, and she had used her borrowed Green Plain Brocade to protect herself, then it would be difficult for her to get out.
”Yeyue!” When Grandma Loulan found Ji Yeyue, she cried out in surprise. She advanced into the swarm of Space-corroding Sects while brandishing her walking stick. At that moment the buzzing sects dispersed.
