“Hehe, I must have a way?” Green Spirit laughed with anger, “You really know me! Must have a way? If I had a way, I wouldn’t be stuck here by you!”

“You’re stuck here by me? You’ve been stuck in the green lamp for hundreds of thousands of years, and I’m not even 20. It’s none of my business!” Zhou Bao cried, “Besides, I’ve been trying to help you. Look, you wanted a new body, so I looked everywhere for treasures to provide for you. You’ve seen all the treasures that I’ve got, and you said none of them would work. What can I do?” Speaking of this, he took out the white bead that he just put in his hand, “You see, I also got a treasure when I was fighting with Kunlun Mountain. Unfortunately, it’s only a celestial device at Mysterious Level. I’m afraid it won’t be appropriate for you, either!”

“Gee? When did you get this?”

To the surprise of Zhou Bao, when Green Spirit saw the white bead, he exclaimed, and then his tone also became strange.

“This was the stuff of Kunlun Mountain. They wanted to use this thing against my Golden Flame Mirror, but I took it. What? Is there a problem with this bead?” Suddenly, Zhou Bao had his heart in his mouth. Honestly, there were not many things in this world that could surprise Green Spirit.

“You took it with the Golden Flame Mirror? Are you kidding?” Green Spirit steadied himself forcibly.

“I’m not kidding. What, I’m lucky again?”

“Yes, you really lucked out!” murmured Green Spirit, “You said those guys of Kunlun Mountain used this thing to hit you?”

“Yes, they hit me with this. It’s powerful. If I hadn’t shielded it with my Golden Flame Mirror, I might have been hit by it!”

“Idiots, idiots, they’re real idiots! To hit people with this thing! How stupid!” Green Spirit cried out a few times, then stopped and sighed, “It’s useless, boy. It’s precious, but it’s not designed to be used against the enemy. It will take at least a year to refine it and really use it, so it’s not appropriate. By the way, don’t you have the Yin and Yang Dust Formation? Why not use it?”

“The Yin and Yang Dust Formation? I refined the formation flag in the Jade Pool, and if I use it here, the Jade Pool may be aware of it!” Zhou Bao answered. The Yin and Yang Dust Formation was one of his trump cards, and he had successfully refined the formation flag. Since the formation flag was refined in the Jade Pool, he was afraid that those Jade Pool guys would spot his flaws.

“Rubbish! The formation flag is just the formation flag! There are many people in the world that can refine formation flags. Are they all from the Jade Pool?” Green Spirit spluttered and began to curse, “Your Yin and Yang Dust Formation has reached the Basic level. It’s not a problem to use it to deal with a Level Nine expert and a Pure Yang Celestial Device. The Invisible Dragon Rod is formidable, but it can’t break your Yin and Yang Dust Formation. In the formation, you don’t have to be afraid of any Pure Yang Celestial Device or Kunlun Master!”

“This formation is my last bluff. I don’t want to use it yet!” Zhou Bao said gently, “You know, the Yin and Yang Dust Formation is so famous that if I use it openly, the trouble it will bring to me shall be way more than the worth of owning the Pure Yang Celestial Device. It can only be the last bluff to be used in the dark. Using it in broad daylight is asking for trouble!”

“What if no one knows you’re using it?”

“I know you have some concerns about the Yin and Yang Dust Formation. But right now, it’s the best choice! Of course, if you’re not willing to expose it, you can make the magic matrix as the main formation when you set the formation!” Green Spirit said leisurely.

“Magic matrix?”

“Yes, the magic matrix! The Yin and Yang Dust Formation is wonderful. If the set is good, even Level Nine experts can’t realize that they themselves are in the formation. Most importantly, even if they’re in the formation, as long as you don’t launch all of its power, they won’t know it’s the Yin and Yang Dust Formation!” Green Spirit explained, “Besides, although you’ve made the formation flag now, it’s still delusional to give full play to the power of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation. It’s better to concentrate on one formation, and to bring out the power of the magic matrix first. As long as you’re careful, no one will think that you know the Yin and Yang Dust Formation!”

“Is there really no other way?”

“No, there isn’t. You can only use the Yin and Yang Dust Formation now, unless you’re sure that you can defeat a Level Nine expert who owns a Pure Yang Celestial Device in a one-on-one battle!” Green Spirit smiled bitterly.

“The reason why I sought you out is just because I’m not sure!” Zhou Bao said, “But now that you say so, I’ll try. I’ve used the magic matrix, and it’s indeed a bit of a mystery!” At this point, he paused, lifting his hand with the white bead, “Hey, what the hell is this bead that made you so excited?”

“It’s a Dark Female Pearl! It’s of no use to you now, but when you enter the Individual Immortal Karma Rank, which means you break through to the Mysterious Realm, you can practice the Second Primordial Spirit with its help. It works wonders. Those guys actually hit you with it. What a waste!”

The Dark Female Pearl, the Second Primordial Spirit!

Zhou Bao nodded, carefully put the Dark Female Pearl back into his Space of Segmented Realms, and put Green Spirit back. Then he pulled out the formation flag of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, and practiced it while referring to the formation map of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation.

The Yin and Yang Dust Formation was marvellous. With the current cultivation and horizon of Zhou Bao, it was almost impossible to thoroughly comprehend the formation. However, he was lucky enough to get two Innate Green Lotus Seeds, and successfully refined the Formation Eye, which was the most important part of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation. What was more, he exchanged a lotus seed with the Jade Pool for enough materials to make a complete set of formation flags.

Owning both the Formation Eye and the formation flag, although he still couldn’t set the complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation, he could manage to set one of six gates of the life and death, creation and destruction, dark and light, which would display some power.

The power of this magic matrix was far less than the power of the complete formation, but it was enough to deal with a Level Nine expert with a Pure Yang Celestial Device. As for the complete Yin and Yang Dust Formation, it was used by great schools of immortality in the antiquity times to guard their own sects, suppress the immortal fate, and kill Ultimate Demons. Thus, it had nothing to do with him.

He had exercised the magic matrix for a while, and had some ideas about it. Now he only needed to secretly practice how to set the most suitable magic matrix in order to get the biggest advantage in the coming game.

“It’s truly the Ancient Great Way of Immortality! Really remarkable!” Zhou Bao sat quietly on the bed, the black and white light around him looming. The Qi within a radius of five kilometers was fully mobilized and utilized by him. Now, he was like a great painter, who only needed to draw what he wanted in the place as he saw necessary.

The black and white light suddenly went out, and an invisible layer of vibration rippled out, instantly enveloping the whole room. Meanwhile, the scene in the room was changed. The small room which was originally less than 100 square meters had been expanded infinitely, becoming a Fairyland.

Zhou Bao, who had been sitting on the bed, was sitting on a big stone now, beside a withered pine tree. Around him, some cranes were feeding and flying around. In the distance there were overlapping mountains. White clouds were leisurely floating in the sky. It was like the world of Immortals with living Divine Qi.

Suddenly, a crane beside Zhou Bao changed. Dots of white light radiated from it, and it began to transform into a human being. After several breaths, the crane had become a man who looked exactly like Zhou Bao. At first, only the appearance was the same, but after a while, its spirit, momentum and even eyes were indistinguishable from Zhou Bao’s.

It was a weird feeling.

Seeing the other version of him looking at himself with a smile, Zhou Bao was a little overwhelmed, though it was him who made this illusion.

He gave a flick of his sleeve, and the figure in front of him was once more a crane.

“The Yin and Yang Dust Formation is really marvellous! With the Congenital Clear Spiritual Magic Talisman as the Formation Eye, I can almost simulate all the spirit of the world. Although there is no real power in this magic matrix, it’s enough to fool my opponents. In the face of my the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill and the magic matrix, even a Level Nine expert with a Pure Yang Celestial Device is sure to suffer.”

Taking back the magic matrix, Zhou Bao thought.

At first, he did not dare to expose the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, so his combating means appeared to be insufficient and short of variation. But now, Green Spirit’s words made him realize that he could actually use the legendary Formation of Immortality. In this way, his thinking was much broader. In fact, he came up with the solution almost immediately.

It was just the Invisible Dragon Rod, a Pure Yang Celestial Device!

It was powerful, but if they picked the wrong target, no matter how powerful it was, Zhou Bao wouldn’t be afraid of it.

“No matter how strong Ning Bo is, and how wonderful his Pure Yang Weapon is, I’m not afraid of him as long as he is in my magic matrix!” Thinking of this, Zhou Bao was finally relieved, a smile of complacency crossing his face, “This time, let Kunlun Mountain fail once and for all!”

Over the next few days, Zhou Bao began to wander around his territory and set the formation as he traveled. After the magic matrix was set, as long as he wanted to, it could fit perfectly with the surroundings, just as what happened on the Blacktail Plain. Even if you walked into the inside, no matter how sensitive your spiritual mind was, you would not be aware that you had been trapped in the magic matrix, unless Zhou Bao changed the magic matrix.

The place was carefully chosen by Zhou Bao. It was the place where he used to bombard those three experts of Kunlun Mountain to death with the Golden Flame Mirror, and also the place where Kunlun Mountain mustered refugees to set up tribes.

It was flat and fertile, not only suitable for settling and herding, but also for fighting.

Just when he returned after finishing the setup of the formation, he immediately sensed something was wrong, terribly wrong!

Outside the sentry post of the little town centralization, Wang She stood with his hands behind his back in the middle of the road. In front of him was a fine carriage, and in front of the carriage stood a girl in pink. She looked at Wang She with a cold, angry look. They were confronting each other.

The carriage should be heading towards the town centralization.

But behind Wang She was Jiang Xiao, Zhu Ba and the others. They seemed to be very confused, and did not seem to understand Wang She’s intentions.

“Chief Wang, Her Royal Highness has something to discuss with His Excellency Zhou. It’s none of your business!” After a short confrontation, finding that Wang She had no intention of making way for her, the girl in pink finally spoke in a very cold and very dissatisfied tone.

Instead of immediately answering, Wang She looked at the girl in pink, and glanced at the carriage, then replied, “Shui Hongyan, I don’t care what you come here for, but the accounts between us have to be settled!”

“Yes, the accounts have to be settled, but not now!”

“Now that the princess is here, you should know I’m here, and you dare come. If you’re not going to settle accounts with me, what are you doing?” Wang She’s voice was bitingly cold, a chilling light glowing in his eyes, and a faint trace of killing intent looming over him.

Just then, the sedan curtain opened, and a sublime face appeared in front of the crowd, “You must be Chief Wang of the Tian Long Taoism. Here are tributes from Yan-er!”

When Wang She saw Yan-er, the muscles on his face twitched slightly, but he just nodded, “Princess, you really came. Please forgive me for being rude!”

“Chief, you’re being too modest!” Yan-er smiled and gracefully stepped out of the carriage, “Chief Wang, I don’t know the grievances between you and elder sister Shui. But this time she came with me for my business. Please for my sake, don’t embarrass her! As for your grievances, how about you two putting them aside until my business is over?”

Wang She winked and looked at Yan-er with a strange look. When he was about to say something, he saw a jade pendant that Yan-er was slowly raising from her waist, and then he was stunned for a moment. Once more, he looked at Yan-er carefully, and finally looked up at Shui Hongyan. He, however, gently moved aside to make way for a passage.

“It’s not like you!” Hiding his spirit with the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, Zhou Bao passed his voice to Wang She and laughed.

“Humph, boy, don’t be too excited! This princess is not a girl to trifle with, be careful!”

“Be careful? I don’t care what kind of person she is. I don’t want to see her now!” Hidden in the dark, Zhou Bao sneered, “I know she’s not a girl to trifle with, so I’ll never see her before I resolve the matter with Kunlun Mountain!”

“That’s a good idea!” Wang She smiled, and turned suddenly, snapping, “Wait!”

The carriage stopped again. “What’s the matter, Wang She, you changed your mind?” Shui Hongyan asked in a very cold voice.

“No.” Wang She grinned, “You’re here to find Zhou Bao, right?”

“Yeah, we came here to find His Excellency Zhou. So what?”

“Nothing, I just forgot to tell you, Zhou Bao is very nervous now because he’s gonna fight with the experts of Kunlun Mountain. He has been in closed-door training and won’t exit training until the opponents come. So you can’t find him now!”

Shui Hongyan’s gaze suddenly froze. Not knowing whether it was true or false, she turned her eyes to Jiang Xiao and the other people, who were standing at the gate of the town centralization.

“If I’m not mistaken, you must be His Excellency Zhou’s right-hand man, Jiang Xiao, His Excellency Jiang!” Yan-er once again stepped out of the carriage, and approached Jiang Xiao and the other people, asking with a smile, “Please tell me where he has been doing his closed-door training?”

“This…”

Jiang Xiao and the other people were tongue-tied. For a moment, they didn’t know what to say.

Zhou Bao had been in closed-door training?

Nonsense, they just saw Zhou Bao this morning. Expose him on the spot? They dared not. Wang She was a Level Nine expert, and few could defeat him. In addition, he had a good relationship with Zhou Bao. If they exposed his lies on the spot, they would suffer.

If the question was not posed by her, even if by Shui Hongyan, the girl in pink, they would answer it without hesitation by following Wang She’s meaning.

However, the beautiful girl in front of them was not an ordinary person, but the princess!

The princess, the Emperor’s daughter!

A God’s favored, honoured girl!

In this world, to experts like Zhou Bao and Wang She, the majesty of the royal family was nothing, but to people who grew up in Jin and later served as officers in Jin’s army, like Jiang Xiao, Zhu Ba and Wang Cheng, the majesty was unrivaledly immense.

In spite of the fact that they had followed Zhou Bao in recent years and done many things that seemed to be dismissive of Jin’s imperial power, for a while, they did not dare to lie when they were really facing the royal bloodline, the present princess.

Temporarily, they were caught in a dilemma.

Looking at their expressions, Yan-er smiled and then turned to Wang She, “Chief Wang, you’re the Chief of the Tian Long Taoism, the most famous expert in the world. Unexpectedly, you lied to a weak girl!”

“I lied to you? Heehee, that’s a joke!” Wang She just laughed grimly, “Believe it or not!”

Yan-er caught sight of both Wang She’s confident expression and the bewilderment of Jiang Xiao and the others. After giving it a thought, she understood the basics. Although her cultivation was not high, she knew that experts, such as Zhou Bao and Wang She, could conceal their spirit and communicate in the dark, while ordinary people could not detect it.

However, she was not resigned to leave now.

Her aim was to persuade Zhou Bao before the people of Kunlun Mountain came, rather than after.

After the people of Kunlun Mountain came, no matter whether Zhou Bao was winning or losing, it was meaningless.

At the thought of it, she felt depressed. She had heard that Zhou Bao was hard to deal with, but she did not expect that he refused to meet her, not giving her any chance. It really frustrated her.

She gently gritted her slivery teeth and looked up at Wang She with a smile, “Chief Wang, His Excellency Zhou is in closed-door training, and no one can disturb him. But I don’t think that includes you!”

“What do you mean? Let me call that guy for you?” Wang She gave her a look and laughed, “Princess Yan-er, you’re really from the Yan Family! You really dare to do everything and think everything! I have a good relationship with Zhou Bao, but he’s in trouble now. I’m afraid he really has no mood to meet you. You’d better go back!”

“I come here just for this business!” Yan-er said, “I know you came here for the same reason. You pissed off Kunlun Mountain, and created a big grudge. Although this grievance isn’t easy to resolve, it’s not necessary to settle the issue with fighting and killing!”

“Really?” Wang She slightly raised his eyebrows, and knew Yan-er was not only talking to him, but also to the hidden Zhou Bao, “You mean, you can help this guy to resolve his grievance with Kunlun Mountain?”

“I’ll try my best. As for details, I’d like to talk to His Excellency Zhou in person!”

“Talk to him in person? Then I can’t help!” Wang She helplessly spread his hands, “Why don’t you let these guys take you to look for him and see if you have any luck. Maybe Zhou Bao might just happen to have exited training!”

“Then, I’ll have to bother you, please!” Yan-er smiled and looked at Jiang Xiao and the other two men.

“We really don’t deserve this honor!” The three repeatedly replied. Then they led Yan-er and Shui Hongyan into the town centralization.

Seeing them off, Wang She pulled back his gaze.

“What do you think, boy?”

“I have no idea. I’m in closed-door training. Even if the Emperor comes, I won’t meet him, not to mention her!” Zhou Bao responded with a sneer. He might have met her if they had come before he asked Green Spirit for advice. Now that he had decided to use the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, and he almost had full confidence to overcome Ning Bo, the First Elder of Kunlun Mountain. In such circumstances, he wished the enemy to come early and fight early. Thus, how could he listen to the princess and reconcile with the enemy?

“Hey, what’s the background of the princess? Even you had to give her face.”
