817 A Fierce Fight Against an Earthly Immortal I (1/2)
Sneak attack! It was a sneak attack again! Launched by an Earthly Immortal!
Facing such a sneak attack, Zhou Bao was utterly indignant, because this was the third time he had to deal with a sneak raid from an Earthly Immortal.
Was this the typical attacking style of Earthly Immortals? Did they just prefer to stay in the dark and target others furtively?
Being attacked like this yet again, Zhou Bao refused to tolerate these kinds of nasty moves. His body wriggled and evaded the light, and suddenly a huge black hand rose to the sky and grabbed at the Void Universe.
This huge hand instantly ripped up layers of spaces and went straight for the unknown opponent.
”How audacious!”
A growl sounded from the depths of the Void Universe.
The opponent clearly didn't expect that Zhou Bao would be so daring nor have the guts to mess around with an Earthly Immortal.
The growl then transformed into something substantial—a huge tornado, which swept towards the black hand. Meanwhile, the light that charged at the place between Zhou Bao's eyebrows flashed and leaped towards him once again.
”Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle! Taihao Fairy Weapon Red Thunder Shuttle! It's Emperor Hulong of Seven Mysteries World! What background does this guy have on earth? Even an Earthly Immortal emperor is after him!”
Based on the appearance of the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle and the growl, the onlookers figured out the identity of the one who made the first strike and these rendered them speechless.
The Seven Mysteries World was a powerful influence of the Holy Alliance. Emperor Hulong was one of the top nine Earthly Immortals of the Seven Mysteries World, who had not appeared in public for thousands of years. Today, he turned up unexpectedly and even launched a surprise attack at Zhou Bao, which was rather bewildering.
”Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle? How can you just send a simple Taihao Fairy Weapon to fight against me?” Seeing the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle hurtling towards him again, Zhou Bao merely gave a sneer. With a wave of his hand, a jet of purple light gleamed and dashed right into the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle.
”Clank!”
A loud clank could be heard from the Void Universe, telling Zhou Bao that the purple light had hit the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle. The Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle suddenly froze in the air, its brightness dimmed rapidly and it lost the power to advance forwards. At the same time, the practitioners who were watching the battle noticed to their surprise that the strange Taoist was holding a purple bamboo stick.
It was the gentle point of this bamboo stick that broke Emperor Hulong's Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle just now.
Well, the battle was not over. The Taoist was apparently not satisfied with simply defeating the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle, so he pointed the purple bamboo stick at it again.
”Crack!”
The pointing gesture immediately reduced the Taihao Fairy Weapon, the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle, into dust!
After the purple bamboo stick had destroyed the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle, it relentlessly flung itself towards the Void Universe once Zhou Bao brandished it.
It pierced through the Void Universe and joined the black hand, flying in the direction of the unknown enemy.
A red light appeared and both the black huge hand and the purple bamboo stick hit the red light at the same time.
”Whir!”
In the depths of the Void Universe, boundless storms surged suddenly as if the place had turned into a tumultuous ocean. The three types of power produced by the three objects shattered the space into pieces. These three kinds of power were totally different. One of them was the power of Zhou Bao's black hand. This was a poisonous hand, containing the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast. It corroded the entire space in which the rampant storms were wreaking havoc. The power of the purple bamboo stick was even eerier. It penetrated through layers of spaces and left a small hole in each of the solid walls of all those spaces as if they were made of thin paper.
These two kinds of power were Zhou Bao's power. However, both the space-corroding power and the space-piercing power were blocked by the red light.
The red light rose and solidified the space that was raging violently, into a block of ice.
When the black hand touched it, the invincible corroding effect did not work. The space that was frozen by the red light only had a thin layer melted by the effect.
The purple bamboo stick, which had penetrated spaces and destroyed anything that came to it, only managed to create a tiny hole on the surface of the space frozen by the red light.
”Brat, you are courting death!”
It seemed that Emperor Hulong had gained the upper hand, but he also suffered a great loss because his Taihao Fairy Weapon, the Ingenious Red Thunder Shuttle, was destroyed by Zhou Bao. As one of the top nine emperors of the Seven Mysteries World and a prestigious Earthly Immortal, he had not experienced such a loss for thousands of years. Now, with Zhou Bao breaking his fairy weapon and persistently penetrating spaces to launch more attacks on him, his fury was thoroughly ignited.
Wild storms immediately broke out in the depths of the Void Universe. Immense pressure broke through the space and bore down on the area.
”Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—”
