Chapter 713: The Primordial Demon

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

The Dark Sect was a very peculiar sect.

Their initial heritage came from Primordial Demons.

In fact, practice methods of mankind were passed down from various strong creatures that lived in primitive, ancient times, as well as the period of the Primordial Origin.

The power of the Dark Sect originated from Primordial Demons. While studying Primordial Demons, they also modified their powers accordingly to fit the body structure of men. At last, they created a set of power inheritance system that was suitable for human beings, and that was the source of the power of the Dark Sect.

However, unlike mankind, every living creature in primitive times was a unique individual. Although they were classified as the Primordial Demon, the Innate Deity, and the Ancient Spirit, technically each of them had their special power system. Those researching the power of these living creatures in primitive times could only extricate their common general features and then transform those features into something suitable for mankind to practice. This was the origin of all sorts of practice ways in the Dark Sect; in effect, this was also the origin of all the practice ways of human practitioners.

To some extent, the cultivation of human beings actually came from imitating those of the powerful living creatures. In this regard, those necromancers in antiquity times did not do anything wrong. The only mistake they might have made was that they let their studies go too far, which caused destruction in the end.

However, that was the idea Zhou Bao held in the past. Now, after hearing the words of the stranger in the mysterious space, Zhou Bao had a vague feeling that the tribulation in antiquity times was not simply incurred by a terrifying object that a necromancer tried to make.

Or maybe the creation of the Sacred City of Origin merely provided an opportunity for the ending. If there were no Necromancer’s Tribulation, the world with 99 Emperors and Heaven Realm World ruling heavens and realms would come to an end as well.

Of course, all this was purely his speculation. There was no way for him to find out the truth.

His target was the Primordial Demon. This time the purpose of his trip to the center of the Infinite Star Sea was not just for killing the Primordial Demon; his agenda was to investigate the actual situation there.

But before he arrived at his destination, he sensed that there was something quite odd about the regional division in the Infinite Star Sea.

As he came closer to the central area, the number of practitioners increased. Apparently, the most powerful sects and influences in the two Star Areas and the 14 macro worlds had all set up their own branches in the central area of the Infinite Star Sea, and it happened to encircle this area. On the surface, it looked like any randomly formed circle, and anyone could easily walk across it to enter the center area. But in reality, it was impossible to do so. If you were just a tourist, you could go sightseeing without encountering any problems. But when you approached the forbidden area, you would be subject to intense scrutiny, especially when you entered the deepest region, a place that was wholly taken up by the two Star Areas, the Dark Sect and other sects of the Infinite Star Sea. The Dark Sect, including their various branches regarded this central area as their exclusive domain.

After walking around the center of the Infinite Star Sea, Zhou Bao had a general idea about the layout of the place. The sects and various branches of the Dark Sect had formed several concentric circles with the Dark Sect at the heart, protecting the vast central area of the Infinite Star Sea.

Practitioners could access the areas between branches of the Dark Sect and bases of other sects freely. But if you wanted to enter the central area guarded by the Dark Sect, you would have to get through the Dark Sect first.

Just like in other places, the members of Dark Sect in the Infinite Star Sea and the two Star Areas were not united as one.

Instead, they branched out and kept competing and fighting with each other. Nevertheless, no matter how hard they competed or fought, they all followed the same rule — and that was never to allow anyone else to encroach the central area of the Infinite Star Sea.

Unless it was the season for harboring the Devil Fetus, anyone who sought to enter the center of the Infinite Star Sea would face an all-out attack from every branch of the Dark Sect.

However, for Zhou Bao, who had achieved the highest accomplishment in the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, hiding from these thickly dotted informants and traps arranged by the branches of the Dark Sect, as well as all kinds of practitioners and experts, was a piece of cake.

His body turned into a wisp of dust, which wandered about the hollow; it fluttered across the layers of barricades set up by the Dark Sect, and entered the core of the Infinite Star Sea.

“How impressive! Back then, in order for them to suppress the Primordial Demon, those great emperors really went all out. What a weird formation it is!”

On the very core of the Infinite Star Sea that was located in the deepest sea, there stood a huge transparent rhombic crystal. This gigantic crystal rhombohedron was about 10,000 feet high. A colossal body was sealed inside the crystal, which made it look like a gigantic piece of amber.

“Primordial Demon! This is the Real Body of the Primordial Demon?”

The appearance of this Primordial Demon was about 60 percent similar to a man. The most striking difference was that this Primordial Demon was enormous and he had six strange arms.

His body stood tall at 10,000 feet and was covered in tiny scales. His six arms were incredibly sinewy. His fingers were like hooks, glistening with an eerie blue light.

But what shocked Zhou Bao most were his eyes, which flickered with a red light. The deterring brilliance that radiated from his eyes was highly similar to that of Fiery Eyes.

Were they Fiery Eyes?

Not exactly!

They were just the same color as Fiery Eyes. Well, what mattered most was that the pupils were moving.

He was still alive.

And he was extremely alert too. Obviously, he felt quite surprised by the arrival of Zhou Bao, an uninvited guest.

“Snake-like Breath Holding Skill? Interesting. I never expected that someone could practice the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill up to this phase nowadays. Wait, it’s impossible to accomplish this solely by practicing this skill!”

Although Zhou Bao operated his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill without a break, it was evident that he could not fool this Primordial Demon. An odd divine thought diffused through the crystal and condensed into a strip, which directly invaded Zhou Bao’s spirit.

“You―!”

“Don’t be so surprised, son. The Seven Wonderful Techniques are not so easy to practice!” The divine thought of this Primordial Demon was curiously mystical and his tone held a touch of seductiveness. “Practicing only one Wonderful Technique will not help you to reach the top level. If a man wants to polish each of his Wonderful Techniques to the highest phase, he must learn all the Seven Wonderful Techniques. Every time he masters a new Wonderful Technique, his understanding of Wonderful Techniques will improve a little. Judging by your performance when using the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, you must at least have grasped four or five Wonderful Techniques. That’s very impressive, son!”

In such a short spell, he already made a comprehensive observation of the accomplishments Zhou Bao had attained in practicing the Seven Wonderful Techniques.

After his initial astonishment, Zhou Bao did not find this surprising anymore. Yes, there was nothing surprising if you remembered who this guy was.

He was as powerful as an Innate Deity. If he could not see through this little trick, Zhou Bao would start to suspect his authenticity.

“You’re really the Primordial Demon! So far, no one has ever seen through me. Even Fate Creator cannot tell. But you—”

“Fate Creator? Hahahaha, a guy mastering one macro world claims to be a Fate Creator?”The divine thought of this Primordial Demon was filled with scorn.

Zhou Bao stood numbly near the huge crystal, staring at the Primordial Demon sealed inside the crystal, speechless. After a while, he said, “Having been imprisoned for numerous years, it seems that you are not in a position to ridicule others, right?”

“Humph!”

As if having been provoked by Zhou Bao’s words, the divine thought of this Primordial Demon suddenly heaved and turned into a fine thorn, stabbing right at Zhou Bao’s spirit.

“Spirit attack? Interesting!”

Facing this spirit attack, Zhou Bao did not panic at all. The Heavenly Magic Eye between his eyebrows vibrated and transformed into a huge net of Divine Awareness, which swallowed that spirit thorn and eliminated the danger.

“You’re a Primordial Demon, a creature as powerful as an Innate Deity. It is not right for you to launch such a vicious surprise attack against me!”

“Not right? Son, if you fail to sustain this little attack, how could you be qualified to keep nagging at me?”

“So, does this mean you give the same treatment to everyone who comes here?”

“Not exactly. You’re not in the plan, and you know multiple Wonderful Techniques, so I naturally gave you a special treatment!” Primordial Demon said. “Moreover, my little friend, your traveling all the way here must not be just to get a glimpse of me!”

“Of course not. Someone asked me to kill you!”

“There are loads of people who want to kill me, so I won’t try to guess who. The current issue is…do you have the ability to kill me?”

“Seems I do not!” Zhou Bao glanced at the gigantic crystal and went on, “So now, let me see what I can do!”

“You are an interesting boy. Perhaps we can be friends!”

“Friends? I have a lot of friends, but I don’t think I want to befriend a Primordial Demon!” Zhou Bao said, in a very composed tone.

“You came here, you saw the circumstances in the surroundings, and you met me already. And now, you’re leaving, aren’t you?”

“You’re right. I’m here to gather information in advance. However, it appears that the situation here is a bit different from what I imagined!”

“Different? Because you find me still very much alive after being suppressed for so many years?”

“That’s really beyond my expectation. All this while I reckoned that you couldn’t contact the outside world while being imprisoned. But to my surprise, you can able to release your divine thoughts out of the sealed space at will. In this case, you should find it easy to lure those from the Dark Sect!”

“That’s why they never come within 10,000 miles near the core region of this Star Area; the limit of the range for my divine thoughts is precisely 10,000 miles.”

“Seems that you’ve lured many people before. If you did it right, perhaps you could have gotten out of here!”

“Your thoughts are too simple. If it’s that easy, why do I have to go through all the trouble to produce those Devil Fetuses?”

“Then, what do I have to do to kill you?”
