826 Laying the Cards on the Table (1/2)

Zhou Bao is also no fool and highly skilled in combat. He has the ability to defeat and kill an ordinary Earthly Immortal. However, he could do nothing when faced with four well-prepared Earthly Immortals. He could only risk his life to give himself a glimmer of hope to survive. To be able to kill Emperor Hulong, it would be down to pure luck.

Emperor Hulong was one of the nine Earthly Immortals in the Seven Mysteries World. Since then, however, there probably would only be eight Earthly Immortals in the Seven Mysteries World left.

Although Zhou Bao had a good relationship with Emperor Baiqi, he was destined to be an enemy of the Seven Mysteries World after this incident.

”I am able to conquer any part of the world and afraid of nobody!” Zhou Bao used his Supreme Fairy Weapon—the Black Pearl—to break out of the encirclement set up by the three Earthly Immortals and countless spaces to leave the Central Star Area in just several breaths.

”Damn it! We actually let him escape!” The three Earthly Immortals immediately felt ashamed. Zhou Bao was besieged by four of them, but he managed to escape with great ease and also killed one of them. If the news of this incident were to spread, they would certainly lose face.

”We cannot do anything about it. This guy is really too sharp. As soon as he discerned that the situation was unfavorable, he immediately wielded his Supreme Fairy Weapon without masking his intentions. His attacks were malicious and insidious. Although Hu Long had fought him once, he is unable to fully uncover his strength. And this is the Tribulation Taker. What do both of you think?”

”Well, we have all reached the Earthly Immortal Realm and led a stable life for too long. We are no longer suitable to face such a fierce fight anymore!” An Earthly Immortal let out a sigh. Since they became Earthly Immortals, they have focused on meaningful things such as comprehending the mysteries of the universe and have not concerned themselves with things such as fighting for a long time. Even if there was any dispute or difference on ideas between them, they would settle these problems through negotiation. The fight between Earthly Immortals would not necessarily happen for hundreds of thousands of years. Nonetheless, Zhou Bao had killed three Earthly Immortals in a row within just a few months. He certainly had a rich experience in battles.

Since they had suffered a great loss, they knew for certain that it was time to give up. In fact, they could do nothing because Zhou Bao was too fast for them to catch up with.

The Black Pearl moved at such a great speed that ordinary, and even mighty Earthly Immortals were simply unable to catch up with it. The Supreme Fairy Weapon is not an ordinary weapon and if its speed could be matched and it could be destroyed so easily, it would not be worthy of its name.

Hu Long and the other three Earthly Immortals had speculated that Zhou Bao might have the Supreme Fairy Weapon. However, being self-conceited and arrogant, they did not think that he was really able to use it well. They thought that he could only bring out part of its full potential at best and that four of them together with three Heavenly Fairy Weapons were sufficient to restrain the Supreme Fairy Weapon. Nevertheless, they did not expect that this Supreme Fairy Weapon was refined by Zhou Bao himself. He could even realize its full potential without scruple and bring out 120% of its potential if he wanted to.

Of course, if they had known it before, they would never have been so stupid to come here and besiege him.

”It's really troublesome. My identity as Cundi has been thoroughly exposed. I cannot stay in the Holy Alliance anymore. Do I have to change my identity and get another name? Forget it, fate is a weird thing. If I get another name and the two names exercise restraint on each other's fate, I might be in much more serious trouble !”

The idea of giving himself another name perished the moment he thought of it. Now he was certain that the name ”Cundi” had brought him a visible and tangible fate. It was impossible for him to abandon this kind of fate in order to get a new name. It would make no difference even if he changed his name to Honored Lord of the Origin or the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord (that is, two formidable Taoists). Most importantly, perhaps the fate that the name ”Cundi” had brought to him would disappear, or both kinds of fate would overcome each other. As a result, he would not even know how he would die.

A prudent person would never make such a stupid mistake.

”Fine, I'd rather keep the name 'Cundi'. Apart from the Central Star Area, there are still many other places that I can go in the Void Universe. Even though this name has spread throughout the Void Universe and everyone knows that I possess a Supreme Fairy Weapon, do they really have the nerve to snatch it? I don't think so!”

Presently, Zhou Bao was full of confidence.

Why was he so confident?

It was solely because he had killed three Earthly Immortals.

His current reputation and confidence were brought upon with the lives of the three Earthly Immortals.

Since antiquity times and even during this period, in addition to the top-ranked supreme emperors among the 99 Emperors, no one had ever heard of anyone who could kill three Earthly Immortals in a very short span of time.

Was there anyone else who was able to kill three Earthly Immortals at the Human Immortal Realm?

No. No one had ever heard of that.
