842 An Old Chinese Parasol, The Forest of Mysteries & An Ongoing Assassination (1/2)
Yes, there were loads of opportunities to earn more merits!
This was Marquis Zhihai's judgment. Though they had lost a Supreme Fairy Weapon, in exchange, they managed to destroy the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower. However, perhaps they should not have been so optimistic.
On the surface, they had won. This win came too quickly, it was too expected, and they were a bit overwhelmed. Now, before their main reinforcement and mighty combatants were able to back them up, they had to face the passageway of the Void Immortal Realm.
What should they do?
The Devil Tribe was actually prepared to fight a lasting battle with the Celestial Mystery Emperor and his lot. The Endless Blood Sea was supposed to tangle with the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower for a long time. Then, when the main force of the Devil Realm arrived, they would be able to take the passageway of the Void Immortal Realm.
But now a problem, a big problem had emerged. They had taken down the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower too fast. Now that the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower was destroyed, all the forces from the Celestial Mystery Emperor were gone. It could be said that the passageway was already open to them.
When things developed to this stage, the situation became more dangerous, because no one could guarantee that the Celestial Mystery Emperor was not playing tricks on them. After all, they were unable to see where the World Chakra was heading, let alone its unusual movements.
This was why Marquis Zhihai wanted the Marquis Flood Dragon. The Marquis Flood Dragon had the bloodline of the Ghost Flood Dragon, so it would sense the World Chakra.
”This is the passageway of the Void Immortal Realm!”
While the Devil Tribe was still hesitating, Zhou Bao had already snuck into the depths of the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower, that was to say the depths of the Falling Star Reef. Although the Falling Star Reef, and even the whole Heaven Realm World, had been demolished, and was covered in a kind of dismal air, this was nothing for an expert as powerful as Zhou Bao.
”Right. This is the passageway connecting the Void Universe with the Immortal Realm!” A sigh of amazement sounded in his ears. A non-characteristic solemn expression appeared on Ghost Child's face. He gazed at the nearby gateway with all his concentration.
This was the gateway, the magnificent gateway.
It was 30 meters high and seemed to have been molded with pure gold. There were several ancient patterns engraved on its surface. These patterns were neither abstruse nor powerful. They did not contain any special meaning. They were just there for decoration.
Aside from that, the gateway was no different from a normal gateway.
However, a mysterious cloud was floating behind it. Even Zhou Bao could not see through it. What on earth was behind the cloud?
Since he could not see or touch whatever was behind the gateway, Zhou Bao just stood before it, wondering whether he should go in or not.
”There is no defensive mechanism here!”
”Of course there is no defensive mechanism. The Sea-overlooking Gate Tower is gone, so continuing to fight against the Devil Tribe is meaningless. Letting go of this gateway was a smart move on the Celestial Mystery Emperor's part,” Ghost Child explained.
”But the current issue is that even without any defensive mechanism, the Devil Tribe still hasn't invaded!”
”The Devil Tribe has some scruples. The power of the World Chakra is not easy to handle. They're also afraid of being banished to an alien world!” Ghost Child said sharply. ”If I were them, I would try to find someone with the bloodline of the Ghost Flood Dragon who can sense the unusual movements of the Chakra. Then, I would consider going into the passageway. Anyway, the Falling Star Reef is in their hands now. They don't need to rush and take more risks. Well, as for you, are you going to go in or not?”
”Why do I need to go in? I've been to the Immortal Realm, there is nothing too impressive there!” Zhou Bao glanced at the legendary gate of the Immortal Realm, and paused for a second. Then, he laughed, ”Do you have any clue where the Celestial Mystery Emperor might be hiding?”
”Humph, there are only a few places in the Heaven Realm World that are beyond the Fate Creation Boy's monitor range. Among them, only a handful can sustain the simultaneous explosion of two Supreme Fairy Weapons!” Ghost Child said. ”You really want to make a strike against the Celestial Mystery Emperor?”
”Our relationship has been so tense that there is no way around it. He started all this. Of course I'm going to pay him back!” Zhou Bao said, his eyes glimmering with resolution. ”If I allow this guy, who's famous for calculating and scheming in antiquity times to stay alive, it will be a disaster. Before he makes more plans to deal with me, I'll kill him. This is the best choice!”
”If that's the case, then, come with me!” Judging by Zhou Bao's tone, Ghost Child knew that he had made up his mind. Thus, he would say no more. Zhou Bao leaped up, broke through the space, and entered the endless spacetime.
The Heaven Realm World and the endless spacetime were completely ruined.
Under the devastating blast of two Supreme Fairy Weapon, the Heaven Realm World had been almost fatally wounded. Although it did not fall apart instantly, almost all of the surrounding endless spacetime was shattered into dust. It had formed into a raging space-time storm.
This kind of space-time storm would last for thousands of years before it evolved into a new spacetime. For the next thousand years, the endless spacetime would take the form of the present violent storm.
In this space-time storm, only a few special spacetimes existed. Most of these spacetimes were in the depths of the storm. They looked to be more concealed than they used to be, but in fact, it was much easier to find them.
After all, in the past, you had to search through numerous spacetimes to find the right one. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack. But now, with the majority of it gone, which had actually turned into dust, the one you needed to find appeared to be more conspicuous.
Zhou Bao transformed into a speck of dust and leaped into the huge space-time storm. Not affected by the deadly storm, he shuttled through the storm at will, looking for the special spacetimes that had not been destroyed.
”Look! Over there seems a bit different!”
