Chapter 855 - Starting to Face the Rock Cliff Sect (1/2)
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
The Rock Cliff Sect!
This sect that had originated from a place high up in the mountain disappeared millions of years ago.
In the Immortal Realm, a mountain had to be at least ten million feet in height to be considered high.
The top of this mountain seemed to have been flattened by an immense force. It collapsed and the place had a desolate air about it.
At the foot of Rock Cliff Sect mountain lay a small town.
After the ruins of the Rock Cliff Sect were discovered in this small town, it was gradually rebuilt. It was not very big but had already outgrown Red Flame City in size.
It was nearing the day that the Rock Cliff Sect ruins were to be opened. For the past million years the site opening times were very irregular. Sometimes it only opened once in tens of thousands of years and other times it opened every several thousands of years. If it had been placed in the Void Universe, the opening date would never be confirmed. But this was not the Void Universe, it was the Void Immortal Realm.
There were many similar ruins in the Void Immortal Realm. Furthermore, in a compromise between the great powers, where the top-level took into consideration the honing of the skills of the bottom level practitioners, the opening day of the ruins was not kept secret. So on each opening day, the small village at the foot of the Rock Cliff Sect would welcome countless explorers and practitioners seeking opportunities.
Practitioners streamed in endlessly, seeking treasures. Naturally, Zhou Bao had plenty of opportunities too and he swaggered into Rock Cliff City along with the procession of practitioners.
After he had successfully obtained the Dark Garbha-mandala Canopy from the Crown Prince, he beheaded him. He had not been given the slightest chance. This had greatly offended the Jade Emperor Sage and Jade Emperor Palace was coming for him in the Immortal Realm. But he was not in the least worried.
After the so-called Jade Emperor Crown Prince had killed and robbed the tribulation takers, they were fated to never be able to resolve their conflict with Jade Emperor Palace.
Tribulation takers could not be randomly killed and if they were killed, their fates could not be plundered so casually. These Jade Emperor Crown Princes were not tribulation takers, so they did not have the ability to carry out the tasks. But they had a great leader who gave them the ability, although this ability was not perfect compared to those who were true tribulation takers. They could only steal half of the tribulation takers’ fates, but this was already considered a large amount. These were virtually man-made tribulation takers; it was not clear whether the methods they had taken for themselves were better than those of the sword schools. But it was enough to demonstrate the Jade Emperor Sage’s tyranny.
Tyranny!
This was a common characteristic of the Way of the Emperors’ practice. Once they had everything they required in hand, they turned them into pawns for their own use; all living things in the universe were made to crawl under their feet. These living things could only obey their commands respectfully before finally being enslaved.
Yes, they enslaved all living things!
The highest and most sought-after state of the Way of the Emperor was enslavement, the enslavement of all things!
This state and way of thinking was completely contrary to practice. But if one day they were able to practice to a prestigious level, this was enough to fill the practitioners with glory and satisfaction. It was said that this feeling of satisfaction surpassed everything else, including the feeling of unlimited ascension through the phases.
This was what disgusted Zhou Bao the most.
Zhou Bao sought to practice in completely the opposite way of the Way of the Emperor. He sought complete freedom so that no-one or nothing had any way of restricting him. Everything he did was for this goal.
Freedom and enslavement!
These were completely contrary propositions and he was fated to oppose those practitioners of the Way of the Emperor.
Of course, his old father in law did not care about the cultivation of the Way of the Emperor.
There was too much difference between the levels. Yan Yuntian had, at best, the ability of a ruler of a country. Although his power had some scope, it was not enough. Thinking about it, for several years he was the Human Emperor of Heaven Realm and during this time the situation in Heaven Realm World had worsened. If it were not for Fate Creation Boy and his son-in-law propping it up in the background, he would not have maintained his power there. If this type of person practiced the Way of the Emperor, he would definitely not be bullied.
