“Shut your mouth!” Anger flashed across his elegant face and a blue ray pulsed from his fingertip, going straight through the Treasure-snatching Rock’s device spirit.
“There’s no point in killing me!”
Under the blue divine light, the Treasure-snatching Rock’s device spirit grew dim and then disappeared. “The object is in this layer of space. If you want it, go and find it yourself!”
The voice grew weaker and disappeared into space along with his body.
“Moon Temple, you don’t need to fight anymore, it’s no use. This guy has no conscience. He said before that he’ll block your road to illumination. No-one can stop him, even the Dao Ancestor himself couldn’t come to your aid!”
After the Treasure-snatching Rock disappeared, a weak divine thought entered Emperor of Moon Temple’s spirit.
“How do you know all this? Where did you come from?”
He laughed mischievously. “Where do you think I came from? I was produced by the petty guy, like the thing you’re after. Do you think you actually have a chance of getting it?”
The Emperor of Moon Temple fell silent and went pale. Nobody at the scene said a word. His body just disappeared into the space inside the Treasure-snatching Rock.
Emperor An was quite surprised to see the emperor suddenly disappear. He wanted to go after him, but seeing the third layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock was already in a complete mess, in the end, he left it.
All of the Earthly Immortal emperors by now had lost any nuances of dignity and started digging frantically in the third layer for the mysterious object.
“What actually is this thing that is making the Earthly Immortals so crazy?” Zhou Bao had used his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill to hide inside the third layer, so he was not worried about being discovered. With his power, even if the Jade Emperor Sage came in person, he wouldn’t be discovered.
“What about the Treasure-snatching Rock’s device spirit? He said if there was a problem he would come and find me, but now even if he were here himself, none of them would have time to help me!”
“Not necessarily, boy!”
He did not come to any conclusion. A thought suddenly broke into his consciousness.
“Treasure-snatching Rock?”
“Don’t worry! I can’t see your inner thoughts except when you think of something involving me, only then can I react!”
“You’re not dead?”
“I am the Treasure-snatching Rock’s device spirit. If the Treasure-snatching Rock is not dead, then neither am I!” the thought said weakly. But within the fluctuations in his thoughts, Zhou Bao could clearly feel one that was decidedly weak.
“Even if you’re not dead, you must be hurt after the Emperor of Moon Temple’s attack! It’s utterly impossible that you’ve even materialized!”
“Moon Temple need not think that he is powerful. He was even considered the prime Celestial Immortal, even more powerful than the Thunder Emperor. But he cannot complete the Celestial Immortal’s Way that had been ordained several eras ago.”
“Several eras ago? Has he really lived that long?”
“What is the use of living that long when you are forever unable to take that important step? The longer he lives, the unhappier he gets. He’s gone crazy!” The Treasure-snatching Rock’s voice grew gloomy. “It’s the other person you need to look out for.”
“Who?”
“Jade Emperor Sage. He’s caused huge problems for me as well.”
“Don’t tell me he’s already arrived?”
“Yes. He’s here. He’s completed the Celestial Immortal’s Way, but he used cheap tricks to achieve it. So he needs to improve.”
“What is this object that everyone is fighting over?”
