Chapter 874 - The Crimson Thunder (2/2)
Emperor An, who beat the hell out of Zhou Bao, was not among the three. In the prince’s memory, his brother Yu An couldn’t get along with his father and the two were like enemies. He was a big problem for the emperor. But since he was too strong, the emperor could do nothing about him.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
“The Emperor of Moon Temple, the Thunder Emperor and Tai Sui are among the ten greatest Emperors of antiquity times. They are the strongest Earthly Immortals in Jade Emperor Palace. Each of them is almost as powerful as a Celestial Immortal. The deadliest one to me is the Thunder Emperor. I took his Pool of Thunder Tribulation. In front of him, I’ll be totally vulnerable!” The thought seemed to remind him of something. He waved his hand and brought out the Thunder Tribulation. The weapon had been severely hurt in the fight against Yu An and its device spirit looked rather depressed now. Under Zhou Bao’s control, the Thunder Tribulation shrank into the size of a palm. The device spirit was trying hard to withdraw its thunderbolt.
“Zhou Bao, why are you calling me out at such a time? Don’t you know that I’m recovering my strength? Emperor An gave me a hard blow. It will take about one hundred, no, one thousand years for me to recover. Don’t count on me to help you again!” Zhou Bao had refined the Pool of Thunder Tribulation, but he was not powerful enough to rein in its device spirit. He could eliminate the device spirit by force, but in that case, the power of the Thunder Tribulation would drop to that of a Taihao Fairy Weapon. This wouldn’t benefit him at all. The device spirit knew this and treated Zhou Bao coldly. It only provided some help when it was a matter of life or death, for example, when facing Emperor An. If it didn’t, it would be destroyed as well.
“Don’t complain now. Look! What is this?”
While speaking, Zhou Bao put out his index finger. Ten centimeters away from his finger point, a trace of a crimson thunderbolt appeared out of nowhere. It grew bigger and bigger. The thunderbolts intertwined with each other and expanded. At last, a thunder ball the size of a basketball was formed. This crimson thunder ball spun slowly in the hollow. Deep inside the ball, endless thunderbolts repeatedly appeared, evolved and disappeared.
“The Crimson Thunder belonged to the Three Devil Deities of the hell. How did you get it?” The device spirit of the Pool of Thunder Tribulation was shocked at the sight of it. Thunderbolts were known to be the most horrible natural phenomenon in the world. All the tribulations started and ended with thunderbolts. Therefore, any Divine Sense related to thunderbolts had infinite power. Three divine thunders were especially powerful. One of them was the Purple Heaven Thunder, also called the tribulation thunder. The tribulations for the evolution and promotion of all living creatures generated from the Purple Heaven Thunder. It was studied and practiced by the Thunder Emperor in the Heavenly Court. The Pool of Thunder Tribulation had also been refined and evolved from it. The other two supreme thunderbolts were the Crimson Thunder controlled by the Three Devil Deities of the hell in the remote antiquity and the black Thunder of Fate, which was said to have started the Primordial Origin.
The Thunder of Fate was untraceable. It was one of the causes for the evolution of the Primordial Origin and was not something that practitioners could control. The Crimson Thunder was different. The Three Devil Deities, who had long surpassed the Celestial Immortal phase, were the most powerful rulers in the era of ancient deities. They were said to have been conceived from the Crimson Thunder and thus held the secrets of the thunder, which were lost with their decline.
No one knew the reason for their decline. It was one of the biggest mysteries in this era.
No one expected that Huang Lei, from the Northernmost Sea macro world, could inherit this from the Three Devil Deities and obtained the Crimson Thunder, which was now in Zhou Bao’s hand.
For others, the Crimson Thunder was only a powerful Divine Sense, a sort of bluff. But for the device spirit of the Pool of Thunder Tribulation, whose origin was a trace of Purple Heaven Thunder, it was more than that. If it obtained the Crimson Thunder and comprehended the two supreme thunderbolts, its phase and power would be significantly improved. It would have the power to challenge Celestial Immortals. The moment it comprehended the Crimson Thunder, it would step into the Celestial Immortal realm.
How could it bypass such a good opportunity?
So, he became agitated.
But Zhou Bao remained calm. He looked at the impatient device spirit and laughed. “I fought for it. Do you want it?”
“I—!” The device spirit stopped the sentence just in time. He stared at Zhou Bao and asked, “You want to control me with the Crimson Thunder?!”
“No matter where you come from, you’re a Heavenly Fairy Weapon refined by me. However, obviously you’re not conscious of that, which upsets me very much. Your attitude makes me anxious. I’m not sure if you will turn against me in front of the Thunder Emperor. Do you think I should give the Crimson Thunder to you?”
“What do you want me to do then?”
“I need a totally loyal Heavenly Fairy Weapon. No matter how powerful it is, I wouldn’t have to worry. On the contrary, the more powerful it grows, the more beneficial it will be to me. Especially when its original owner shows up, I want it to help me wholeheartedly. It’s that simple. Can you do that?”
“I cannot guarantee that, because I was created by the Thunder Emperor. Even if I were to betray him, I don’t know what he will do to me. Even if I have the Crimson Thunder, I won’t be his match, let alone help you against him!”
“I don’t want you to help me against the Thunder Emperor. I want you to handle someone else. We need a new contract!!”
