659 The Thunder Tribulation Begins (1/2)
A jade-green gate suddenly appeared in front of Zhou Bao. This one was even more dazzling than Fate Creation Boy's black gate which was made of precious stones. When Zhou Bao looked at it, he could feel that something was lacking; it was as if his accumulation was not enough.
”Unfortunately, it seems that because the creation time for Azure Big World is too short, this is the only way to go about it.” He sighed and stepped through the gate.
”Oh? How interesting!” When he went through the gate, Zhou Bao stared blankly for a second, then he laughed.
It turned out that the gate did not lead to Taihua Mountain where he had come from, but led instead to the Sea of Divine Power of the Azure Big World.
”I'm confused. This gate is linked to my Power of Fate, so it should lead to the Sea of Divine Power. It looks like the Fate Creator's other gates lead to the most critical points in their own macro words. If this is so, even if they could bring people into the Fate Creation Palace, no one would be willing to go at any given time and place. But what if I don't even want to be here. It is actually good that they can't bring people in, as it would save me from a lot of struggles!” Zhou Bao thought to himself. He did not stay there for long. He stepped out again and returned to Jilei Mountain.
Wang She and Child-endowing Buddha had not left yet; they visited Zhou Bao frequently and were protected from the inhibition. Therefore, they were at home and wanted very much to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation. It would not be possible however, without Zhou Bao's help, so he remained there most of the time.
Zhou Bao had spent three days at the Fate Creation Palace. This had given him many advantages, but it was still not enough. The higher his strength, the stronger the thunder bolts would be. Therefore, if his strength had gained a level during his three days at the Fate Creation Palace, so too would his Void Thunder Tribulation. He really could not tell if this was a good thing or not.
”You're finally back! If you hadn't come back, Wang She and I would have been totally desperate!” Seeing Zhou Bao appearing in front of them, Wang She heaved a sigh of relief, and so did Child-endowing Buddha. ”You took so long! What did the old bastard want with you?”
”I'm afraid I won't be able to cross the Thunder Tribulation with you.”
”What, why?”
”There's a small problem with my Thunder Tribulation, it's not like yours. If I cross the Thunder Tribulation with you, you'll be struck to death!” He laughed bitterly.
”It's fine, we can cross the Thunder Tribulation using our own strength. We came to look for you because after the Thunder Tribulation there will be a recuperation period where we will be very weak. We're concerned that someone could take advantage of this and cause trouble, so we wanted you to be our protector. And you know, we need to find a good location to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation, and thus we need your help.”
”No problem!” While he was listening to Wang She, Zhou Bao's eyes flitted about as if he had just thought of something. He smiled. ”No problem at all!”
For Zhou Bao, looking for a place in the hollow to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation was no problem at all with a protector.
The place to cross the Thunder Tribulation had to be chosen carefully as you could not choose any random place. It was best to find a location with no living creatures, like a vast planet with no pneuma. This way, if the tribulation was too strong, there would be minimal effect if it destroyed the whole planet. And if there was no pneuma, there would be no spiritual qi, and this would reduce the effect the thunder would have on the space. As far as those crossing the tribulation were concerned, nothing much could go wrong.
There were lots of vast planets in the hollow. But looking for a vast planet like this in such an expansive hollow would be a difficult task.
Or at least it was for Child-endowing Buddha and Wang She.
This was why they traveled thousands of miles to find Zhou Bao.
It was much easier for Zhou Bao to find such a place. If there was nothing else, there were still lots of these places in the Desolate Ancient Star Area. For Zhou Bao, it was no difficulty at all.
”You see, there are many vast planets in the Desolate Ancient Star Area, and none of them have any life or pneuma. It's the best place to use to cross the Void Thunder Tribulation. I think each of you should choose one planet, that way you won't get in each other's way and create more problems. What do you think?”
”Well, it's up to you. I'll choose that ochre vast planet. What about you, Wang She?”
”I'll choose the cyan planet!”
