714 Marquis Wugu Striking Ou (2/2)

Hidden Dragon Star was a Trading Star with crowds of people coming and going every day. Nevertheless, behind the hustle and bustle, there was a lot of chaos. But Zhou Bao knew well that these days it was in a good state, much better than it was a few years ago. Every time when the Devil Fetus was produced, this planet was in a total mess, because experts and practitioners from the Infinite Star Sea, the two Star Areas, and the 14 macro worlds would all congregate in this area to fight for that Devil Fetus. In those days, this Hidden Dragon Star and the rest 19 vast planets were all held in a reign of terror. Of course, the chaos and terror in the world of practitioners would not impact ordinary people. In fact, every time when this occurred, ordinary people would seek shelter in the sanctuary provided by various sects. So long as you stepped into the sanctuary, you would not feel anything even if the outside world had been turned upside down.

Now, it had not been that long since the last Devil Fetus was produced, so there were still some marks of the devastation left, showing what those vast planets had gone through. But this mess would end in a few years, and now every planet was in the process of recovering. As Zhou Bao in his previous life would put it, everything was getting back on track. At this point, even if some chaos occurred on Hidden Dragon Star, there would not be any serious problems. But now, it was different, because a serious problem had just emerged.

Zhou Bao had not contacted anyone after he landed on Hidden Dragon Star. He found a desolate hill to calm himself down; to stifle the greedy lust that had risen in his heart.

He had not felt very excited while talking to the Primordial Demon. But now, after he calmed down, he found that his mental state had been affected by the Primordial Demon subconsciously and his greed was burning like fire. If it were not for the Red Centipede Mind-concentrating Skill he had recently mastered, he would certainly have concluded a deal with the Primordial Demon right on the spot. If that was the case, he would be in deep trouble!

Therefore, he came to Hidden Dragon Star to gather his thoughts, restore his mental state, as well as go over his plan. However, to everyone's surprise, a loud boom resonated at this point. In a city not too distant from the desolate hill where he was staying, a huge mushroom cloud rose, lingering in the sky for quite a long time before dispersing.

”What a fierce power fluctuation! Who on earth is doing this to Hidden Dragon Star—” Before this thought fully emerged in his head, his expression suddenly altered. Standing up, he launched the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill to conceal his spirit. Then, in a flash, he disapparated from Hidden Dragon Star by using the Infinite Realms Teleportation. Almost at the same time of his disapparation, a huge emaciated hand with protruding joints appeared out of thin air and grabbed the entire Hidden Dragon Star.

Yes, this huge hand held Hidden Dragon Star in its palm. Right now, Zhou Bao had just shifted to the hollow outside Hidden Dragon Star, and he saw the whole thing clearly. This huge hand did not seal the space or cast any other special techniques but just made a grab, then, with a gentle pinch, it crumpled the whole Hidden Dragon Star. You can imagine how enormous this hand was, and how outrageous its power was.

Like Zhou Bao, many strong practitioners also managed to escape from Hidden Dragon Star. However, they were just a small portion of the entire population. Those practitioners, who were all at least in the Lord of Heaven Realm and accomplished their Self-worlds, now appeared in the hollow outside Hidden Dragon Star.

After crushing Hidden Dragon Star, the huge hand did not stop its attacks. The clenched hand suddenly made a flipping gesture, and several jets of Qi zoomed out from its fingertips, hitting those Lords of Heaven who had just fled from Hidden Dragon Star, with great accuracy. Those poor guys were reduced to nothing by these seemingly tiny shots of Qi before they even realized what had happened.

What was more, even one shot of Qi was fired at Zhou Bao.

”Da*n it!” Zhou Bao cursed under his breath. This was the second time today that his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill had failed to conceal his spirit from others.

”Wham!”

Zhou Bao flung out a hammer, which collided with the shot and produced another boom.

He retreated backwards with the speed of a shooting star. Feeling the power this Qi contained, his expression changed.

”This power is very strong!”

The opponent felt a bit surprised too when he saw how he had failed to get rid of Zhou Bao in one go. Then, the huge hand stretched across thousands of miles as if there was no distance between the two, and directly encompassed Zhou Bao.

When Zhou Bao attempted to launch the Infinite Realms Teleportation once more, he found to his shock that the space enveloped by this huge hand had been sealed off by a powerful alien force.

”Making such a relentless strike, where are your manners?” His face altered, and instantly his body started to become transparent. The huge hand made a lunge but managed to grab only a handful of air.

It was the Way of the Void, the Grand Void Technique!

This was a Great Way Zhou Bao received during his Thunder Tribulations.

This was one of the 3,000 Great Ways. After obtaining this Great Way, Zhou Bao practiced it and successfully grasped all the wonders of this Grand Void Technique. When in the hollow, the Grand Void Technique could temporarily infuse him with the hollow and turned him into a part of it. The huge hand was indeed powerful, but it could do nothing to Zhou Bao now, for he had already employed the Grand Void Technique. Furthermore, when that huge hand realized it did not manage to catch Zhou Bao, it went motionless for a second. And in this precise second, Zhou Bao again exercised his Infinite Realms Teleportation, and this time he made it, transporting himself outside the range of the huge hand. Although Zhou Bao was quite curious about the huge hand, for the moment he preferred to act prudently. Anyway, it was merely a huge hand. Judging by the power it exhibited, the owner of this huge hand should certainly be an impressive guy, a top expert. His strength must be at the level of a Divine Immortal or above, so Zhou Bao was not so anxious to tangle with him now.

Therefore, when getting out of the devil's clutches, Zhou Bao did not think but operated the Three Realms Division and the Infinite Realms Teleportation in succession and left this Star Area.

The huge hand did not try to resume its attack when Zhou Bao took off. In contrast, it flipped around and scratched the hollow, thereafter, five wide cracks emerged in the hollow. On the other side of the five cracks, a mysterious world surfaced, with streams of ancient spirit and willpower pouring out from that world and seeping into this world.
