673 The Duel with Hei Chou (1/2)
”I'm not your friend, nor is this a joke!”
Zhou Bao did not hide his figure in the void but showed up naturally, not far from Hei Chou. ”Your Excellency, why are you secretly watching my Wuyang Region and intruding into the forbidden area?”
”Are you Zhou Bao?” With these words, Hei Chou looked at the young man in front of him and his heart flickered.
He had heard of Zhou Bao's fame and had also investigated him in detail, but now observing him with his own eyes, he knew that all his previous investigations had been in vain. Zhou Bao gave him the feeling that he was definitely a strong opponent, even if he showed that he was merely a person who had newly stepped into the Human Immortal Realm. However, he had the Dharma power on him that was deep like the sea, as well as a burst of barely uncontrollable raging spirit, all of which clearly told Hei Chou that the guy in front of him was by no means ordinary.
”Oh, it turns out to be King Wuyang. I'm Hei Chou, the great commander of the Black Mountain World!” Hei Chou held his fist in the other and laughed, saying, ”The Heaven Realm is really unfathomable. It seems that I miscalculated this time!”
”Black Mountain World, Hei Chou!” Zhou Bao slowly muttered and his face suddenly turned solemn. ”I don't care where are you from or who you are, but you must account for the fact that you sneaked into my mansion and even entered the inner chamber!”
”What? Account for it? Hahahaha!” Hei Chou burst out laughing. Although he had always been very humble, it did not mean that he was a good-tempered man. In fact, as the great commander of the Black Mountain World as well as the biological son of Black Mountain Old Demon, he was very arrogant. This was his inborn character, not to mention that he was over 1,000,000 years old now, and even if he was 10,000,000 years old, perhaps he would not change his personality. Zhou Bao's performance was beyond his expectations, even to the point that it made his eyes light up, but that was all. He had enough confidence and strength to kill Zhou Bao with just one finger. But upon hearing Zhou Bao, in the face of this absolute strength, require him to give an explanation, he could not help laughing like crazy.
”Explanation? Give you an explanation? For you alone? Hahahaha! Boy, it's okay for you to be arrogant in small places like the Seven-deity Regions. But how dare you quack like a duck in front me?! You really don't know how to spell the word 'death'?” Hei Chou shouted and raised his right hand, moving toward Zhou Bao to grab him. Zhou Bao, however, saw only a hand completely made of black fog grabbing at his head directly.
”Alright, come on!” At the sight of this hand, Zhou Bao laughed. The space above his head suddenly distorted and another big black hand appeared, rushing toward Hei Chou's hand.
”Snap!”
”Sizzle!”
The two hands collided with each other in the void. Being highly toxic, Zhou Bao's Giant Void Hand immediately corroded the better part of Hei Chou's big hand.
”Huh? The Elixir of the Nine-headed Fierce Beast and Peach Blossom Miasma? Where did you get such insidious things?” Hei Chou was greatly shocked. At this moment, he withdrew the big hand that he had evolved from Zhou Bao's Giant Void Hand. His hand then turned into numerous black threads finer than those of spiders, which bypassed Zhou Bao's black hand and directly shot at him.
Zhou Bao, however, did not show weakness either. Instead of withdrawing his big black hand, he guided it toward Hei Chou. As for the black threads shooting at him, he did not pay them any attention. The Furnace of Immortality then appeared over his head and its golden light enshrouded his body.
”A fairy weapon!”
Hei Chou was also very afraid of Zhou Bao's Giant Void Hand. If it was the Peach Blossom Miasma alone, that would not have been so bad for him. However, the last thing he wanted to do was touch the Elixir of the Nine-headed Fierce Beast.
The Nine-headed Fierce Beast was one of the most powerful Six Royals among all the Primordial Fierce Beasts. Its poison was even lethal to the legendary Celestial Immortals. Nonetheless, he was merely an Immortal. Although there was not a lot of Elixir of the Nine-headed Fierce Beast in this guy's big hand, he still did not want to touch it, for he knew that it was not only poisonous, but it was also hard to detoxify even if he was able to withstand it for a while.
The Elixir of the Nine-headed Fierce Beast was not only the most poisonous thing in this world but also a poison that was the most difficult to detoxify. Even if one really got rid of all the poison, there was a very good chance that internal injuries would be left in one's body. Only a fool would touch such a horrifying thing.
However, this had also aroused his curiosity thoroughly. How could this fellow obtain such a poisonous thing? And even so, how was he able to use it? It seemed that this guy really did deserve his attention because he actually could use this kind of poison so smoothly.
However, this was not the time to think about it. The guy in front of him could not only utilize such an insidious Giant Void Hand so smoothly, but he also had a weird fairy weapon that easily blocked his attacks. And most important of all, this fairy weapon was not the one he had inquired about.
All the practitioners whose cultivations were above the Genuine Immortal Realm in the Seven-deity Regions knew that Zhou Bao had a fairy weapon. Nevertheless, it was just a Lower-grade Taihao Fairy Weapon handed down from the ancient deities. Hei Chou had a distinguished status in the Black Mountain World, but he only had two fairy weapons in his possession. Therefore, at this time, he meant to snatch Zhou Bao's fairy weapon by causing him trouble.
Fairy weapons, in every macro world, were extremely important resources with great combat capability.
However, evidently, Zhou Bao was much powerful than he knew.
At the very start, instead of taking out that well-known fairy weapon, Zhou Bao took out another one.
”It seems that everyone has underestimated you!” Hei Chou did not move an inch, but there was a burst of vague spatial fluctuations rippling around him. Zhou Bao's Giant Void Hand failed to catch him and it fell directly into his Self-world around him.
