The fifth layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock!

A palace, one that Zhou Bao was familiar with yet still found foreign.

The Purple Heaven Palace!

It was The Purple Heaven Palace!

When Zhou Bao stood in front of the ancient yet majestic palace, his gaze lit up with amazement.

The Purple Heaven Palace, this was The Purple Heaven Palace!

This was The legendary Purple Heaven Palace, where all myths originated!

Standing in front of the old palace’s door, Zhou Bao closed his eyes sightly, as if wanting to feel the legendary Great Ways. However, not only did he feel none, a cold wind greeted him instead.

“Hey, don’t stand in front of the door, the wind blows through there!”

The wind blows through here!

Zhou Bao’s heart froze, immediately realizing what was wrong. He was a practitioner who practiced all the ways to the Immortal Realm and possessed immunity to warm and cold weather. So why did the small gust chill him?

In that instant, he understood what occurred. He raised his head and looked up at the ancient palace with a suspicious gaze.

“Don’t be nervous or afraid. This is the Purple Heaven Palace, the starting and ending point of all things. All living creatures that come here will return to their essence form. Even the Celestial Immortals lose all their powers here, so it’s only naturally for you to too!”

“Return to their essence form?” A sharp sensation tugged at Zhou Bao’s heart and a divine thought formed from beginning to end. Zhou Bao ascertained what went on. The fifth layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock was actually a virtual space, and so was the Purple Heaven Palace. Seemingly, only his thought reached the fifth layer, but his real body remained in the fourth.

For a practitioner of Zhou Bao’s level, even a thought possessed endless power. However, he was helpless when standing in front of the Purple Heaven Palace. The Palace instantiated this thought of his into a body, but that was about it. A body of an ordinary human.

Under such circumstances, Zhou Bao fretted not. He too, knew that worrying prove meaningless. He also thought of the famous line, “As long as you come into my territory, even a dragon will kneel before me!”

Dragons were plentiful in this world. On the other hand, Celestial Immortals stood at the tip of the pyramid of existence. But even they knelt in front of the Purple Heaven Palace.

“I understand you have many questions, but come in first.”

Zhou Bao nodded and walked into the Purple Heave Palace slowly.

Initially, he was still keen on finding out just what this legendary place stood for. Strangely enough, once he stepped into the Palace, his soul wandered off. When he finally regained consciousness, he already walked into the Palace.

“Welcome back! I couldn’t even name you when before you left.” The voice said, both soft and gentle. A sense of happiness, as if a lost son returning home permeated from the voice.

A grey-clothed Taoist stood the center of the big hall. He looked at Zhou Bao with a big smile and loving gaze. However, all Zhou Bao’s hairs stood up because of this ‘loving’ gaze.

It had been years since Zhou Bao last felt something like this, and he did not like it. Although the unlikelihood that this man gave him his first thought, that was about all. If it really happened, then, of course, it could be faked as well. Zhou Bao was no longer the rookie defined by others. If it really was the case, then Zhou Bao mind not giving the Treasure-snatching Rock a little push. But he would never treat it as his parents. Relationships are meant to develop with time. Zhou Bao doubted the Treasure-snatching Rock had much influence over him.

Therefore, Zhou Bao narrowed his eyes slightly as a response to the old Taoist’s loving gaze. “Names are just a code name, I have more than one now.”

“Not bad, other than the original one, the rest are all not bad.” The Taoist in grey smiled and something appeared between his lines.
