817 A Fierce Fight Against an Earthly Immortal I (2/2)
Under the overbearing pressure, the pneuma in the surrounding space exploded. All the meteorites and caves that had been rented out were blasted into fine powder in an instant. Layers of space collapsed and were carried into the pressure, which bore down upon Zhou Bao.
But Zhou Bao cracked a grin. Facing the intimidating power of an Earthly Immortal, he did not show any traces of fear. This Emperor Hulong was pretty good, but his force was far below that of Vast Sea Emperor. Given that Zhou Bao had successfully fended off the Dark Blue Rage of Vast Sea Emperor, how could he be afraid of this Earthly Immortal called Hulong.
”Great move! However, with just Qi Power, how can you hurt me?” The purple light flashed in Zhou Bao's hand, and the purple bamboo stick emerged again. ”Emperor Hulong, I'm an Earthly Immortal. I can't strike in the Void Universe. But now you sneak-attacked me; if I don't teach you a lesson, you must think I'm someone you can easily bully!”
Zhou Bao snarled loudly. He rotated his purple bamboo stick and pointed it at the almost substantialized pressure.
”Pop!”
A soft noise could be heard and the huge pressure broke up.
This pressure was formed by the concentrated Spiritual Strength of Emperor Hulong, who had expected it to give Zhou Bao a hard blow. Of course, the Spiritual Strength was not so easy to break down. After Zhou Bao hit it, a violent spiritual storm sprang up and swept across the area. Meanwhile, Zhou Bao wheeled around and zoomed rapidly into layers of spaces to find the Real Body of the Emperor Hulong.
”Arrogant! This is outrageously arrogant!” Seeing Zhou Bao's reaction, Emperor Hulong was furious. The Earthly Immortal was not allowed to strike in the Void Universe. That was why he had chosen to take on Zhou Bao with the previous means. But to his surprise, Zhou Bao easily dissolved his attacks and even flew into the spaces to chase his Real Body. Was Zhou Bao really seeking his death?
Emperor Hulong was both appalled and irritated. However, Zhou Bao throwing himself into these layers of spaces gave him a good opportunity. Due to the restriction of the Void Universe, previously, he was unable to cast or fully utilize his powers. But now, he could even cast out his macro world and wrap Zhou Bao in. If so, Zhou Bao would become a chunk of meat to be sliced by him. That was why he said Zhou Bao was too arrogant.
Was Zhou Bao really being too arrogant?
Well, only Zhou Bao knew the answer. After his phase rose to the level of the Five Qis Collecting in Mind, his strength had increased significantly. Given that he had successfully pulled through several tribulations just moments ago, his confidence had received a tremendous boost as well. Based on these factors, Zhou Bao believed his combat capability was definitely at the level of the Earthly Immortal. Before, he could barely reach this notch. But now, he was fully qualified to claim that his combat capability was as strong as an Earthly Immortal's. In fact, he was just looking for someone to try out this powerful combat capability that he had newly acquired. Surprisingly, Emperor Hulong came to him on his own accord. Such being the case, he would be silly if he did not test his new powers!
Zhou Bao was highly confident about his strength, but this did not mean he was arrogant. On the contrary, he was quite cautious. The reason why he struck out in such a high-profile fashion was just that he was very familiar with the combating style of Earthly Immortals.
”I'm still new here. Just let the fight with this Emperor Hulong or whatsoever be an opportunity to display my power!” Zhou Bao thought. In an instant, he already traveled to the depths of spacetime.
”Emperor Hulong, stop hiding! Come out!” As he growled, he made one step forward. ”You can't fool me! I'll find you!”
”Boom!”
In a nameless spacetime located in the depths of the Void Universe, a space that was originally in a secret place suddenly started trembling. In this space, a sturdy man with a long beard and straight hair abruptly altered his expression and widened his eyes. Then, an enormous foot stepped right into this mysterious space from the Void Universe. As it landed, this space instantly fell apart.
”Emperor Hulong, come out and battle with me!”
As the growl rang, another enormous foot stepped in and aimed straight for his head.
”Brat, how dare you!”
Yes, how daring of him! Stepping on the head of an Earthly Immortal emperor. What a crazy action! It was an utter provocation to an Earthly Immortal emperor! If this time the Emperor Hulong failed to beat Zhou Bao, in the days ahead, he would no longer have other Earthly Immortals' respect.
”You dare to attack me, well, now I dare to kill you!” Zhou Bao bellowed in an extremely cold voice. Then, he stamped hard without any hesitation.
”Boom!”
He dropped his foot, but did not hit anything. As the boom sounded, the space where Emperor Hulong was hiding disintegrated.
”Whoosh!”
Almost at the same time, strong gusts of wind whirled around the surrounding spaces. A blast of fierce killing intent materialized and zoomed at Zhou Bao like a huge awl.
The Sky-piercing Awl!
As the Sky-piercing Awl rotated madly, the space turned into a maelstrom of high waves, storms, thunderbolts, raging fire, as well as freezing ice.
In a split second, the place where Zhou Bao was standing resembled hell. Numerous streams of power converged and united. Besides those terrifying powers, there was another kind of odd and obscure spatial fluctuation in this area.
Zhou Bao merely sneered. Watching all the powers closing on him like iron walls, he wielded the glowing, purple bamboo and thrust it out randomly!
”No matter where you came from, there is only one destination for me!”
”Clank!”
This thrust came so fast and so unexpected that even Emperor Hulong did not have time to react. In the next second, the tip of this purple bamboo stick pressed precisely against the spot between the eyebrows of Emperor Hulong.
