769 Murdering an Earthly Immortal with the Immortal-slaying Sword Qi (1/2)
”Boy, be patient, just hang on, hang on for one more second. Zhou Bao, your combat capability is way stronger than this!” When he heard Zhou Bao's roars, Ghost Child put on a calm and composed face and gave him this advice. ”Take time to feel what the power of an Earthly Immortal is like. If you want to step into the way of the Earthly Immortal, your experience of facing up to an Earthly Immortal will be very good for you!”
”Easier said than done!” Zhou Bao was so angry that he almost wanted to snap at Ghost Child. What he just advised was so useless and irresponsible. Take some time to feel the power? But Zhou Bao feared that one more palm attack from this Earthly Immortal would crumble his Real Body of Zhuyan. How could he take time now?
The only thing he could do at the moment was to combine the Mysterious Icy Divine Light with the Eight Nine Mysterious Skill. Wrapped in an aura of dark blue air, he concentrated all his energy to bombard the external facade.
”Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!”
Facing such a desperate situation, Zhou Bao devoted all his attention into pumping his divine thoughts into his fist intent. Every punch he launched contained a virtual universe, and the power of each of his attacks was fatal enough to rip apart all the practitioners who ranked below the Earthly Immortal Realm.
However, the opponent Zhou Bao was facing was an Earthly Immortal. Although this Earthly Immortal had just entered the Earthly Immortal Realm and had yet to completely consolidate his power, the force this Earthly Immortal just demonstrated was already too powerful for him to deal with.
”Interesting, really interesting! You are able to integrate the entire universe into your fist intent! But unfortunately, boy, your ambition is too lofty and too wild. You may be able to trigger a part of the mightiest power in the Void Universe, but since your ranking is very limited, you can't make full use of this power even though you may use it to hurt me. What a pity! What a pity!”
The Earthly Immortal sighed softly, and flipped his palm in the air and pressed his hand directly at Zhou Bao
The power of an Earthly Immortal was beyond the imagination of any ordinary practitioner. No one below the Earthly Immortal phase could possibly contend with it.
When the palm pressed relentlessly on him, Zhou Bao knew he was in real trouble. If he was hit by this palm, even if he did not die, he would be imprisoned in the hand for all eternity and would never have a chance to break free.
”You come out now!”
Precisely because he detected the danger of being perpetually repressed, Zhou Bao threw his scruples to the wind and hastily brought out the red gourd inside him.
Together with his howl, a jet of red light rose from the back of his head and shot towards the palm falling from the sky.
At first, the Earthly Immortal from Eastern Thunder Sect did not take Zhou Bao's attack seriously. In his eyes, this was merely a last-ditch effort he was making.
However, when the red light landed on him, he suddenly sensed that something was very wrong.
A piercing chill permeated his heart. This red light did not actually touch him, but his body already felt like it had been thoroughly impaled. This light penetrated his body and his essence, cutting off his Earthly Immortal phase.
”Impossible!” He let out a weird yell. Even an Earthly Immortal with years of consolidated power would be afraid of this eccentric force; one might get into trouble once he was tainted with this force, let alone this newly developed Earthly Immortal.
”What the hell is this? How did this kind of power come into being?” Right now, he had caught a clear view of what the red light really was—a full red gourd. The spout of this gourd was open, ejecting a fine jet of red light. Meanwhile, a child, who was apparently a device spirit, was staring at his palm with a devious smile.
”Device spirit! Heavenly Fairy Weapon! You have a Heavenly Fairy Weapon!”
The Earthly Immortal could not stifle his hysterical cries anymore.
The Taihao weapon, the Heavenly weapon, and the Supreme weapon were three ranks of fairy weapons.
The most common one was the Taihao Fairy Weapon. But normally, an Earthly Immortal would merely have several top-level Taihao Fairy Weapons. After all, an ordinary Taihao Fairy Weapon was enough to enable an Earthly Immortal to injure another Earthly Immortal at the same rank, let alone a top-level Taihao Fairy Weapon.
Accordingly, even to an Earthly Immortal, a Heavenly Fairy Weapon was something that he could come by only through sheer luck.
Of course, if you have enough patience and luck, you could also upgrade your Taihao Fairy Weapon to a Heavenly Fairy Weapon by fostering the device spirit of the Taihao Fairy Weapon. But that required a lot of time and a large amount of energy as well as resources. Hence, only those ancient and powerful Earthly Immortals could own one Heavenly Fairy Weapon, and this Heavenly Fairy Weapon was the natal magic weapon that would accompany them for life.
Despite the long history of Eastern Thunder Sect and their standing rule over Eastern Thunder World, Eastern Thunder Sect had not acquired any Heavenly Fairy Weapon yet. All they had were several Taihao Fairy Weapons.
