Chapter 865 - I Need Your Help (1/2)

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

So this was the previous life. My previous life. Not the life of Wang Bo, but instead just a single thought bred in this Treasure-snatching Rock. A life supposed to be devoted to the device spirit of a Heavenly Fairy Weapon.

After finding out the cause and effect of his previous life, Zhou Bao hung his head in bewilderment for a while. He was curious to know why he was involved in an accident, which led him to reincarnate into the Human World and become a Tribulation Taker. But for now, his confusion negated the excitement to enter the fifth layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock.

“Why do you appear beaten down already?” Seeing Zhou Bao at a loss, the willpower washed over him again.

“Beaten down? Me?” Zhou Bao asked, squinting in confusion at this question, which he did not understand one bit. “I understood all that happened in my previous life and am now a little absent-minded, but that doesn’t mean I’m beaten down.”

“Really? Don’t you feel that you’re just a thought bred in the Treasure-snatching Rock? You’re not Wang Bo’s Real Body? And even if you are, it was just a projection of thought! Don’t you find this discouraging?”

“Hahahahahaha!!!” After listening to what it said, Zhou Bao laughed hysterically. “Sad? What is there to be sad about? I am who I am! So what if I’m just the consciousness of an essence or a reflection? Everything I hold now, including my cultivation, was all gained from my own hard work! Although great luck plays an important role in the matter, nobody can deny that everything was done through my hands! So what if I was a shit bug!”

“Well said. The fate of a hero is never decided at birth, even if you’re a shit bug, you can also become a Celestial Immortal! Hahahahahaha!” Zhou Bao finished speaking and an incomparably powerful willpower appeared in the Treasure-snatching Rock. “You’re not too shabby!”

“Who is this?” Zhou Bao tilted his head, feeling like a monkey in a zoo for all to watch. His embarrassment was quite unwelcomed.

“Don’t get angry, kid! We’re just a bunch of old guys dying from boredom for staying in the same space for so long. We’re curious about this new-comer, that’s all!”

“Based on your combined strength, shouldn’t it be easy to leave the space of the Treasure-snatching Rock?”

“Leave? Why would we desire that? This is our home, this is where we were born and this is where we will be annihilated eventually! Why would we want to go elsewhere?” The passion of that willpower projected from above the sun burned like fire. However, Zhou Bao’s confusion and amusement piqued around this point. The same feeling he felt just now when they asked if he was sad about his birth.

Yeah!

Why leave?

They should continue to stay on earth and live a good life, just like Wang Bo’s regrets in Zhou Bao’s previous life. Why should they dream about an unrealistic feat such as leaving this place?

Life for them was not something imaginary, nor was it a fairytale. These beings were all device spirits, and perhaps among them some ancient ones. If they left, they might be captured and refined by some powerful practitioners. Practitioners priced the device spirits of a Heavenly Fairy Weapon absurdly high. To them, these device spirits were hard-to-find supplements.

However, the space in the Treasure-snatching Rock was home to these device spirits. Even if an Earthly Immortal entered here, he would leave with grief and regrets instead, and his fairy weapons would be affected by the Treasure-snatching Rock.

“Then you all must be the device spirits in the Treasure-snatching Rock’s space!”

“Not necessarily. We all have our own bodies. In the reflection of this universe, each star is a Heavenly Fairy Weapon. On each living planet, there exist countless device spirits in incubation!”

“You expect me to believe such a far fetched tale? Just how many Heavenly Fairy Weapons reside here?”

“As many as you can imagine!” The thought seemed willing to tell Zhou Bao everything. “Young man, don’t assume that the Heavenly Fairy Weapon is a powerful tool. Even the top player is underwhelming. The Treasure-snatching Rock experienced countless eras of destruction, what can it not handle? There were countless collisions between magic weapons and fairy weapons, heaven-and-earth destructions and inheritance of willpower. Those with some skills immigrated to the Extraterritorial Area. Whatever belongings they left behind are all here!” Zhou Bao understood this problem was related to secretive unknown factors. Although he wished to be enlightened more, he decided it best not to bring it up after some consideration.

“Then why did I reincarnate into the Human World?”

“I should not be the one answering this question, nor am I capable of doing so. Initially, I did, in fact, thought that you were an accident. But come to think of it, the whole situation cannot be explained using the term ‘accident’. This is especially because you have actually managed to become a Tribulation Taker in the Human World and even returned to the space in Treasure-snatching Rock. This cannot be a coincidence!”

“If it’s not a coincidence, then what is it?”

“Once more, I cannot answer you. If that is what you desire, go search for the one who caused your plight.”

“And who may that be?”

“I haven’t the slightest clue.”

“Come on! Although this is just a reflection of the universe from the previous era, you are situated in the core star of this galaxy. If I’m guessing correctly, you’re in charge of controlling this galaxy!”
