Chapter 886 - Inside the Treasure-snatching Rock and the Six Kingdoms (2/2)
“That’s right, helping the others. Now, Jade Emperor Sage could certainly not attain the Omnipotent Sage status. The other sages would probably attack. I heard that recently, the Eye of the Storm and the Chaotic Poisonous Sea have both changed—!”
“That’s right, there was a massive change. I’m afraid those two Earthly Immortals will attack. The Jade Emperor’s good days will soon come to an end.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

The divine thoughts inside the first layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock were having a similar discussion. Only the ancient, mighty practitioners were able to freely enter the rock. Although these practitioners had not reached the Earthly Immortal rank, each of them had their own fearsome special skills and a lot of secret information that no one else knew. Each one had their own special methods, therefore many things that were secrets to other people meant nothing at all to them. At most, they would be considered gossip.
Emperor Yu An stood with a sober expression in the first layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock. He emitted an extremely gloomy spirit from head to toe, which seemed to freeze all the space around him.
Bad news travels faster than good news. He didn’t realize that these guys knew about the brief event that had just happened. And he really had not considered that the Emperor of Netherworld could have practiced the Celestial Immortal’s Way, achieved sage status and helped Zhou Bao out. If he had known earlier, then he would not have gotten involved with the Zhou Bao situation. But seeing as he had already gotten involved, there was no way of getting uninvolved again. The Emperor of Netherworld Sage could help Zhou Bao once, but he might not necessarily be able to help him a second or a third time. What was more, he had also received the news that the Emperor of Netherworld Sage had left the Immortal Realm and had gone to the Extraterritorial Area to practice his Taoist rites. Clearly, he could not return to this Dharma Ending Tribulation, or even back to this era. This meant that he still had a chance to deal with Zhou Bao.
This was why it was so urgent to deal with him. It was not that he hated him so much. But because he almost killed Zhou Bao, Zhou Bao had a great hatred for him.
If it were someone else, he would just forget about it. But Zhou Bao was different; he was a Tribulation Taker. Since ancient times, any guy dealing with a Tribulation Taker would have one of two results, kill the Tribulation Taker or be killed by him. The annoying thing was that Tribulation Takers were not only tough, but they grew very quickly. After experiencing a life or death situation, they would grow like crazy and able to deal a severe blow to the experts who had once suppressed them. This was the law of Tribulation Takers since time immemorial and it was an unchanging truth. He attacked Zhou Bao once, but did not kill him. So, according to the unchanging truth, he would soon find himself in an unfortunate situation. The best solution would be to kill Zhou Bao before he grew completely. This was why he had come to the Treasure-snatching Rock.
Zhou Bao left the Treasure-snatching Rock. Inside the rock, he had been nurturing a Genuine Spirit reincarnation. Entering the Human World and becoming a Tribulation Taker, he had an unbreakable karma with the rock. When the Dharma Ending Tribulation began, many ancient immortals tried to get hold of the Treasure-snatching Rock, but Zhou Bao was so deeply involved with the rock that he would certainly not sit back and let anybody take it. He was certain to return and if he wanted to redeem a favor from the rock, then this would be his chance.
But he had not considered that inside the rock there would be so many ancient Earthly Immortals. Several of them had roughly the same strength as him. The rest were weaker and easier to defeat, but killing them was difficult. They were all difficult characters to deal with.
“Hmph. That guy’s business has nothing to do with me. The reason I want to kill Zhou Bao is that he killed my brother!”
“Hehehehe, really? Nothing to do with that guy? Why do you sound so unsure?” A wave of cold laughter resounded through the spacetime. “Since you are going to cause trouble with Zhou Bao, are you not involved with the rock’s business? If you’re not, then sure. I’m afraid you’re kidding yourself.
“Ying the Rat, if you have the guts, come out and say it. What do you call this, talking nonsense while hiding away in your secret, dark place?”
He chuckled. “Are you not called Emperor An – ‘the Dark Emperor’? How is it the ‘Dark Emperor’ has not gotten hold of me, the rat, in my dark hiding place?” The gloating voice continued to float through the air, never revealing the ultimate meaning.
