Omnipotent Sage

Chapter 304: Another Snatch-up of Pure Yang Celestial Device and the Reaction of Wang She

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

When Green Lotus emerged, he immediately resisted the cyan flag. To know that this cyan flag was materialized from the Gang Qi that Ning Bo had practiced for his entire life, it could be said that most of his cultivation was integrated into this tiny flag. Thus, when being pinned down like this, even if he had exceptional abilities, it would still be hard for him to get off the hook at the moment.

“Zhou Bao! Wang She! How dare you two! You both get together and attempting to nick the treasure of Kunlun Mountain!”

“Oh, what First Elder Ning is talking about? I have no intention to nick your treasure. Haven’t I competed you here? Your cultivation is truly unfathomable since you can even withstand my Pure Yang Celestial Device with your own body. It seems that I cannot resist for a long time, so how can I have time to nick your Pure Yang Celestial Device?”

At this time, Wang She had successfully forced his essence and blood into the Invisible Dragon Rod. His face was already blazed with redness, which even went a bit purple. As he was murmuring some incantations that no one could understand, jets of cyan Gang Qi shrouded in the blood began to slowly wrap up the Invisible Dragon Rod. Each time it wraps around, the golden light of that Invisible Dragon Rod went feeble.

“Quick, release me!” Seeing this scenario, First Elder Ning got anxious, threw all his manners in the wind and cried out, “Aaaaaah!”

Before he finished crying, another painful wail came in!

The Poisonous Hitching Post hit him once again.

“Oh, what a real arrogant! Where do you think you are? What do you reckon you’re doing? Should you keep thinking about other matters during the fight with me, and even asked me to let you out! How ridiculous you are! Is this how thing works at your Kunlun Mountain?”

“His Excellency Zhou, there’s no joking about such matters!” Among the golden light, that fat man finally sighed, “You constraint our First Elder and let him see his Pure Yang Celestial Device and were taken away by others. It was worse than killing him. A loss of state is unavoidable, but are you not afraid of the revenge of Kunlun Mountain?”

“Afraid, of course. I know Kunlun Mountain has at least another Pure Yang Celestial Device, but, what other choice do I have? Now that we have initiated a contest, we shall go through with it. Otherwise, let alone my poor little territory, my life and even the lives of my family will be at stake for this.”

“If I could guarantee that Kunlun Mountain will never go against Your Excellency from now on, then, can you let go of us?”

“Yes, I can. However, I cannot assure you that this Invisible Dragon Rod will go with you together. You see, it’s not me who schemed your Pure Yang Celestial Device, but Wang She does. That guy has spent so much effort on this, dare you let him go back empty-handed?”

The fat man smiled bitterly. “That means there is no room for negotiation, isn’t it?”

“It’s better to do business with the acquaintances than with strangers. Wang She and I have developed a close friendship for many years. We know each other well, and had always a pleasant cooperation. But with you and Kunlun Mountain, well, forget it!”

“I’m still gonna remind you, neither Wang She nor the Tian Long Taoism will be able to save your ass since they are far away in the Central Plains, while your territory is sitting in the influence sphere of us Kunlun Mountain!” The fat man said coldly. When inducement failed, he turned to coercion.

“The sphere of influence? Ah, really funny! Well, I admit that in the Northern Yuan era, this place was indeed your land in the Kunlun Mountain. Unfortunately, it is no longer the era of Northern Yuan. No signs of human habitation ever appeared here. Thre is no human habitation, no tribes, how can you talk about influence sphere? The influence sphere of Kunlun Mountain is confined to the place on your big mountain. To the mountain area, you won’t find even a ghost. How can you regard this as influence?” Zhou Bao said with a sneer. “Maybe after you and Prince Ning formed an alliance and help him exclusively dominate the northwest, this place will be counted as your influence sphere once again. But this shall wait until Prince Ning succeeds, right?”

“Oh, it seems that you know a lot of things!” Hearing Zhou Bao’s words, the fat man felt a little shocked, and his cold face suddenly melted into a sunny, warm smile.

With a broad smile, the fat man replied “Business may fail us, but righteousness still remains. Or let’s talk some other business, shall we?”

“Business can be negotiated when we’re sitting down. But as you’ve seen, now it’s not a good time for business negotiation!” Zhou Bao looked at him with a smile, and then turned his eyes to the sideway and fixed them on other two figures—Yan Yunyan and Shui Hongyan had arrived at unknown time.

However, they came one step late to see the process of Zhou Bao fighting against Ning Bo. On their arrival, Zhou Bao had already constrained the three men from the Kunlun Mountain, while Wang She was ploughing on the work of collecting the Invisible Dragon Rod.

“This must be Princess Heyang, am I right? I’ve heard that you had visited me for business, but at that time, I was in the middle of a closed-door training. If offense is made, please kindly pardon me, Your Highness!”

“Yan-er dare not blame you for this!” Yan Yunyan said hastily, a smile blossomed on her beautiful face, which, for a moment, looked like that flowers of every kind were in bloom, even rendering Zhou Bao into an uncalled daze.

“I’ve heard that His Excellency Zhou had a cultivation for the sake of the world, and he was the No.1 junior hero in the Great Jin. Today meeting you in person, I finally knew that you well deserve your reputation. Even the First Elder of the Kunlun Mountain is no match for you. It seems that the people in the world are still underestimated your strength!”

“How can the rumors in Jianghu be reliable? The power of this Pure Yang Celestial Device is all that I depend on, which cannot count as my true ability!” Zhou Bao said with a smile. “I wonder what Your Highness has arrived here for!”

“Originally, I intended to resolve the misunderstanding between Your Excellency and the Kunlun Mountain, and to avoid the harassment. But now, it seems that it is unnecessary.” Yan Yunyan said in downhearted voice. “Sure enough that Yan-er has made a fruitless journey this time!”

“I don’t want to come, Your princess has watched a big show free of charge. And I believe that as long as Your Highness stays here, she will not be able to go. There will be soon a big show for Your Highness to see!” Zhou Bao chuckled.

“Give me income!”

The cyan light with blood had rounded the nine golden rings. Wang She roared abruptly, both hands swept over in the air. Then, the Invisible Dragon Rod and the surrounding cyan light all condensed into a shaft of bluish yellow light, and shot into his forehead. Almost at the same time, Zhou Bao sleeves lifted. Zhou Bao that was constrained by the Invisible Dragon Rod, turned into a shaft of azure light and descended into his sleeve. No one caught a clear sight of what was in the azure light.

“Congratulations, Chief Wang!”

“Yeah!” Wang She’s face looked pale. He gulped a large breath of cool air and looked up at Zhou Bao. “This time I owe you. But I still need time to refine this Pure Yang Celestial Device. Damn it, this Invisible Dragon Rod has been possessed by that old bloke for many years. It’ll take me some time to cast out his spiritual brand!”

Zhou Bao’s expression slightly changed, and suddenly asked, “How do these people handle?!”

“I need at least half a month to get a preliminarily grasp of this Pure Yang Celestial Device. For these people, you just lock them up first and don’t release them. Otherwise, if Kunlun Master arrives early, I will not be able to help you out!” At this point, Wang She’s eyes rested on Yan Yunyan and Shui Hongyan. “And about these two, lock them up. Never allow them to disclose any information about this situation!”

“You dare to!” This time, Shui Hongyan opened her mouth first. With a flash, her figure was already flashed in front of the princess, and her gorgeous eyes were stared upon Zhou Bao. “Zhou Bao, do you dare to offend the princess?”

“Princess? Of course I don’t dare to offend her! But right now, I’m dealing with my strong enemy, the Kunlun Mountain. So there is no strength I can spare to rescue the princess!” Zhou Bao laughed.

“What?” Shui Hongyan’s face distorted at these words. But before she could realize it, Wang She already approached near her. With a soft point, the tip of his finger punctuated her pink Gang Qi that was protecting her body, and pinned above her forehead.

Although Wang She had exhausted loads of his strength, but after all, he was a Level Nine expert, who could easily handle a Seventh-level expert, as long as he was not a freak like Zhou Bao.

Just when the finger touched on her forehead, Shui Hongyan’s eyes rolled upwards and she collapsed onto the ground. Wang She stretched out his hands, stopped and held her right into his arms.

“Oh, here is the beauty in legend. Chief Wang, feeling pretty good?” At the sight of the two’s posture, Zhou Bao revealed a sly smile.

Wang She didn’t answer him, but did the same thing on Yan Yunyan and subdued her before she could get any chance to speak.

“Half a month!” Wang She said, “At least it shall take half a month, or 20 days for the best, before I can have the confidence using this weapon. I need time to apprehend the wonder of this Pure Yang Celestial Device. It’s far too early for me to employ it to deal with enemies in such a short time, especially when the enemy is Kunlun Master!”

“Then, just ask the Tian Long Taoism to send another one with Pure Yang Celestial Device!”

The golden light of the Golden Flame Mirror glinted, and the three from the Kunlun Mountain who were covered in the light viewed a dazzling sight and lost consciousness all at once.

Without the presence of outsiders, Zhou Bao’s expression turned ugly. He shouted, “Damn, I finally got you a Pure Yang Celestial Device, but you’re telling me that you can’t help me cope with Kunlun Master. Then, what did I ask you to come here for?!”

“I never said that I could not help you deal with Kunlun Master. What I mean is that I need time!” Wang She shook his head and said. “It’s a Pure Yang Celestial Device! Do you think it is the same as a Celestial Device of Mysterious Level? It’s not like that! It takes time to get the hang of it. Lots of time! ”

“You should have thought about this before we took action, shouldn’t you?” Zhou Bao said. “Don’t tell me this never occurred to you! You are a Level Nine expert, the Chief of Tian Long Taoism. You’re intimidatingly famous in the world, it is impossible to not consider a matter like this!”

“Yes, I did. But I never expected that the Invisible Dragon Rod could be so hard to control!” Wang She’s face looked even more bitter than a bitter herb at the moment. Suddenly, he pointed at Ning Bo, who was constrained in the Golden Flame Mirror, and snarled, “This Damn dude not only has a cultivation of Level Nine, but also has practiced certain secret spiritual method that has made his spiritual brand deeply engraved into the Invisible Dragon Rod, even deeper than a knife’s work. Thus, it won’t be easy to wipe it out. Damn, half a month can only get me to block his spiritual brand, so that this guy shall never have control over the Invisible Dragon Rod when he have free from the constraint. As for the rest, it only can depend on our patience to wear down the spiritual brand bit by bit. But if you want to use it, it is definitely not enough!”

“Then what shall we do? How should we deal with Kunlun Master?” Zhou Bao exclaimed. “The power of his Pure Yang Celestial Device will certainly not be inferior to that of the Invisible Dragon Rod, and his strength is even better, which may have possibly half-entered the Metaphysic Realm. What methods do you recommend to deal with him?” Zhou Bao shouted loudly. “You can’t take away the benefits without getting the work done!”

“I know, I know. I won’t take your advantage!” Wang She shook his head reluctantly. “I won’t take benefits from you without giving you anything in exchange. I will certainly sort out the issue of Kunlun Master for you. Actually, now we don’t have to worry about Kunlun Master at all. Powerful as that guy is, since the Kunlun Mountain has lost a Pure Yang Celestial Device, and one of their Level Nine experts has been constrained in this place by you, Kunlun Master’s strength is considerably weakened. With you and me, adding the help of your Pure Yang Celestial Device and the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, we may have a chance to hold him back!” Speaking of this, he shot Zhou Bao a weirdly look. “Don’t you see it? In fact, this round, you’ve already won!”

“Won what f*ck!” Zhou Bao growled. “I’m not this stupid like those Kunlun Mountain people, who came to find fault with their opponent before figuring out his strength. After several fights so far, the Kunlun Mountain should have strength for us. Next time when Kunlun Master strikes, he is bound to come with the power as strong as a thunderbolt, so the winning opportunity will be utterly different. I don’t want to lose the battle to the point that even my underwear is lost to the other side. Therefore, this time, I must be assured of our victory, just like the one we just did.”

Wang She listened carefully over Zhou Bao’s words. He felt that Zhou Bao did have a fair point on this, but he truly misjudged the situation, belittled Ning Bo’s control over the Invisible Dragon Rod, why he got his combat capability severely slashed. Then, he gritted his teeth and said, “Wel, I’ll go back to the old man and let him put pressure on Kunlun Mountain!”

“Go look for the old man and ask him to impose pressure on the Kunlun Mountain?” Zhou Bao forze a bit, a little confused. “What do you mean?!”

“Don’t forget who I am. I am one of the Three Chiefs of the Tian Long Taoism, and I do have a bit power in the Tian Long Taoism. Do you know who my teacher is? He is the Leader of the Tian Long Taoism. Damn, as long as he is willing to come out and clamp down on Kunlun Master, it is enough to prevent Kunlun Master from getting down the Kunlun mountain!” Wang She seems to squeezed him.

“Should there be such a great thing? Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Hearing this, Zhou Bao relapsed and happy. He was able to prevent Kunlun Master from getting down the Kunlun Mountain! He should have informed him eartlier instead of letting Zhou Bao worry for nothing!

“Do you really think that old man can invite anyone to move? That guy is known for his greediness. Without enough benefits, he will never come out to take action. The best he will do is to ask us Chiefs to come forward!” At this, Wang She gnashed his teeth very hardly and said, “Damn, for this, I’ll have to work my ass off for the Tian Long Taoism for another 20 years!”

“Aren’t you the Chief of the Tian Long Taoism? Have you been fighting for Tian Long Taoism?”

“Well, when we, the Three Chiefs, truly want to exercise the power of Chief, it will indeed be very impressive. Meanwhile, we shall also assume huge responsibilities. Precisely for this reason, the three of us have either been hiding on the mountain all day and night, or running around aross the world, but seldom exercised our power as ever. But this time, for the sake of this Pure Yang Celestial Device, it is still worthwhile to cost 20 years of my life!” At this moment, as if to make up his mind, Wang She cast a fierce look on Zhou Bao. “I’m going back right now. I’ll employ my power as the Chief of the Tian Long Taoism and protest against the Kunlun Mountain. Protest against them for unduely bullying the peripheral strength of control Tian Long Taoism. You are from the Wu Family and still entitled as a disciple of the Wu Family. Since the Wu Family is one of our peripheral strength, you naturally belong to our peripheral strength. F*ck, if he dares to do so, I’ll dare to drag all the strength under my control to the northwest and go against him. I truly want to know whether the Kunlun Mountain, who has lost its fangs and power, will be able to contend with us Tian Long Mystic Mountain!”

“Then you just figure it out!” Zhou Bao softly took a breath. He had no interest in digging up secrets of the Tian Long Taoism, so he merely smiled and went on, “I’ll have no objection if you really draw your power in Tian Long Taoism here to put up a fight against the Kunlun Mountain.” Of course he would have no objection. If Wang She could really turn the Tian Long Taoism against the Kunlun Mountain, in this way, new speculations about the ambiguous relationship between him and the Tian Long Taoism would soon sweep across the entire martial arts world. The more those speculations and rumors were, the more advantages he would get.

“Surely I can!” Wang She replied. “I’ll go back now, so you don’t have to worry about this. In three days, I can release the news to the public. By the way, you can let go of these guys. They are actually useless now. If we release them, at least we won’t immediately become a swear enemy of the Kunlun Mountain!”

“Yeah, you’re right, they are already of no use to us!” Zhou Bao nodded in acknowledgement and withdrew his Golden Flame Mirror. He softly flicked his sleeves, which made the surrounding air give a silent stir, and then, nine cyan flags emerged in his palm. With one flip of his hand, the nine flags disappeared at once. Everything went to normal as if nothing had happened, except five unfortunate guys were added to the scene, all lying on the ground in a coma.

“I’m leaving. You just go back to your place at ease. This time, I truly spent a fortune!” Wang She’s expression went increasingly nasty. He stamped hard on the earth, turned into a shot of cyan light and disappeared in front of Zhou Bao.

“F*ck, you have such a simple solution but never use it. Instead, you should insist me to envolve in fighting and killing. How ominous it is!” Zhou Bao murmured to himself, but he could understand what Wang She had said and given it to Tian Long Taoism for no reason. After 20 years of hard work, without huge benefits, even if he was a disciple of the Tian Long Taoism, there was no way for him to agree to this.

“Ah, the affiliate influence of the Tian Long Taoism. After this one, I’m afraid that the northwest will have to go silent for a while.” “That guy, Prince Ning, has always been longing to use the power of the Kunlun Mountain to realize his ambition. This time, I’ve destroyed half of the strength of the Kunlun Mountain, and then by resorting to the influence of the Tian Long Taoism, deterred the Tian Long Taoism as well as those in the northwest who had second thoughts about me. With this legendary Tian Long Taoism backing me up, I ‘ll be able to peacefully develop my territory and open up the commercial routes of the Blacktail Plain.”

The Blacktail Plain was a shortcut for commerce development. Now that he has made the Black Demon Chama surrender to him and had the Golden Flame Mirror at hand, as long as he wanted to, he could blaze a commercial route on the Blacktail Plain at any time with no need to concern about sludges and swamps.

Remember, what truly terrified him on the Blacktail Plain was not Black Demon Chama, but the lethal swamps, which would engulf lives whenever and wherever possible, forcing those who wrongfully stepped into the sludge to witness themselves slowly sink in till death. After all, no matter how strong Black Demon Chama was, it was merely a powerful evil beast. Moreover, the Blacktail Plain was significantly vast, very different from the swamps which were ubiquitous but hard to discover, and could pose death threat to human beings at any time.

However, with the Golden Flame Mirror in his possession, Zhou Bao had the ability to easily open up a firm route untroubled by mire. This advantage was beyond anyone’s control.

Of course, Zhou Bao had never thought to take up this route to himself. This place in the northwest was not that large, but also not that small. If we counted it up, there could be over a hundred lords of enfeoffs at all sizes, among which more than 10 lords’ territories were about the same size as his. But most of them never came here to take over their territories, while among dozens of those who had moved here, a part of them already surrendered to Prince Ning. That was the reason why Prince Ning was so confident to dominate the northwest. First, he had solid strength average lords could not have, even if the area of their territories equated Zhou Bao’s. Second, considering the north was just developed, few people would come and live here. Even though you had a vast territory, you would not have the equivalent strength. At present, influences in the northwest were the weakest. So as long as Prince Ning took root in the northwest, then, whether it was reasonable or unreasonable, legal or illegal, he would be the most powerful influence there. Even if in the future, someone wanted to develop his influence in the northwest, Prince Ning would have already built up his power here and could do them in from behind through some dirty work, while sort of lords would suck it.

This was exactly why Zhou Bao was so scrupulous about this Prince Ning.

Other lords had to gradually foster their influence, including himself, and Prince Ning himself had already gained great influence, which was originally designed to compete for the throne, so he had a perfect talent pool and a net of connections. Even if he was in the Central Plains, no one would dare slight his power. However, he should resolutely withdraw all his influence from the Plains to the northwest, a place where even birds would not defecate, for the purpose of seeking development. Therefore, the advantage he possessed was beyond anyone’s reach.

Zhou Bao naturally couldn’t be a match for Prince Ning, and Zhou Bao knew this by heart. Compared to Prince Ning, the biggest advantage he had was his strong combat capability, which was exactly why this influential Prince Ning was not bold enough to act carelessly on his own accord. But only dealt with him by virtue of the power of the Kunlun Mountain.

But now, the failure of the Kunlun Mountain was a foregone conclusion. Then, what move would Prince Ning do next?

That was what Zhou Bao concerned the most. Once the Kunlun Mountain dropped out, violent conflicts would be destined to arise between Zhou Bao and Prince Ning. Even though Zhou Bao merely aimed to keep steady control over his own territory, this ambitious Prince Ning would never tolerate such a huge labile factor under his nose. In the upcoming days, he would definitely resort to all kinds of means to take down Zhou Bao.

This was not a good thing for Zhou Bao!

Further, he had no interest in tackling Prince Ning all by himself. “I am not Mother Teresa. No need to do good things for free.” Therefore, he intended to drag all lords in the northwest into this game. By what? Trade route! Trade route!

Not in a state recently, I feel dizzy when I sit in front of the computer!
