Chapter 716: The Real Purpose of Sea Emperor
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
What was he buying time for?
“Maybe he is going to visit the Primordial Demon just like me. Hmm, making such a scene just for a meeting with the Primordial Demon. He is much more determined than I am!”
Suddenly, comprehension dawned on Zhou Bao.
“The sealed Primordial Demon can only project his divine thoughts up to a range of 10,000 miles. If a man wants to contact him, he must be within that range. However, the center of the Infinite Star Sea has been taken over by the Dark Sect. There is no way anyone can just walk into that area!”
The range of 10,000 miles seemed very wide. But in reality, it was only about the size of a sesame seed when compared with the scope of the hollow. It was not easy to enter this area at all. Furthermore, based on the Qi Power emitted by that huge hand, its owner did not mind disclosing his spirit, unlike Zhou Bao. That must be the reason why he chose to make such a scene.
Now, Zhou Bao had two questions on his mind. One was about the kind of place the world behind the hollow was like; it had appeared after the huge hand ripped the hollow apart. The other one was if Fierce Owls were those tiny monsters that emerged just now; were they the same ones that damaged divine thought he heard in the mysterious spacetime was referring to? In any case, the Lord of Heaven who left that mysterious spacetime could not be one of those alien monsters called Fierce Owl, right? Could it be that people just thought he was a man who evolved from a Fierce Owl?
“What’s more, my Snake-like Breath Holding Skill has failed me twice. Seems that I really need to proceed with more caution in the future. This Snake-like Breath Holding Skill is not always going to be fool proof. But I wonder if what Primordial Demon said to me is true or not. According to him, the more kinds of the Seven Wonderful Techniques one practices, the more profound his understanding of each Wonderful Technique will be. So far, I’ve practiced five Wonderful Techniques, but since I just started practicing the Red Centipede Mind-concentrating Skill, I still lack some proficiency in it. Perhaps when I fully master this skill, my Snake-like Breath Holding Skill will be taken up a notch. When that day comes, even the Primordial Demon may not be able to detect my existence!”
“And those Devil Fetuses wandering about are perhaps another means the Primordial Demon uses to seduce people. Or maybe they are also vehicles for information transmission. Regardless of what the side effects of swallowing the Devil Fetuses are, the men who have eaten the Devil Fetuses can instantly dissipate the information this Primordial Demon wants to send out. It’s also possible that all the suppressed Primordial Demons are using this method to transmit information. Interesting, this thing is getting more and more interesting!”
At this point, he was contemplating the whole thing from an outsider’s point of view, so he might find it funny. But now, the Infinite Star Sea was already in chaos.
When he hurried to the Secret Store nearest to the central area of the Infinite Star Sea, he found Lord of Heaven Black Turtle looking out anxiously for him. At the sight of Zhou Bao, Lord of Heaven Black Turtle heaved a huge sigh of relief.
“Finally, you’re here. I thought you might have died there!”
“Is my life so worthless? How could I die at such a poor place!” Zhou Bao laughed. But seeing his nervous look, Zhou Bao realized something. “Well, did the news really travel so fast?”
“With all these events happening, how could the news be slow? The passageway connected to the Devil Realm has opened again. This is disastrous for us!”
“Relax! The passageway to the Devil Realm or whatsoever has not been opened. It’s just that a weird Giant Void Hand scratched an opening on it. But now the crack has closed on its own accord, nothing devastating will occur!”
“Good, that’s good!” After hearing Zhou Bao’s words, Venerable Black Turtle felt very relieved. “As long as the passageway leading to the Devil Realm is safe, everything will be fine!”
“Devil Realm? I have never heard of this term before. What kind of place is it?”
“The Devil Realm is a macro world. But unlike normal macro worlds, it is a macro world that is very similar to the hollow!” Glancing at Zhou Bao, Venerable Black Turtle said this with complete honesty. “This Devil Realm is quite different from other macro worlds. I heard that it came into being during primitive times. It is the supreme headquarters of Primordial Demons and is located at a mysterious place beyond any of the Star Area known to us. The Primordial Demons who appeared in antiquity times and wreaked havoc in the hollow, as well as the Primordial Demons being suppressed, are all from the Devil Realm. Occasionally, due to the change in the spacetime, a mysterious passageway connecting the Devil Realm and some known Star Area would appear. It was through this passageway that the Primordial Demons managed to arrive from all sorts of macro and micro worlds!”
“Then, what about Fierce Owls?”
“Fierce Owls? Didn’t you see them? They are a type of demonic creature found in the Devil Realm, the lowest ranked but also the most troublesome of all creatures. I say they are low-ranked because they are not that strong. Even if they go through an evolvement, they can merely reach the peak of an Individual Immortal. They can never reach the level of a Genuine Immortal, that’s the phase of a Ghost Immortal. However, they have thick skin and strong muscles, which even a Genuine Immortal would find hard to kill. Only high-class wizard weapons can work against them. They also have sharp claws and pointed teeth, which basically serve as their own wizard weapons. But they have two more features that make them the trickiest creatures to destroy. First, their claws and teeth can easily tear up space. Secondly, their numbers are huge, and their reproduction speed is amazing. They always operate collectively. Each time they attack, huge swarms of these monsters will flood in. Therefore, every time the Devil Realm invaded us in antiquity times, they always send these Fierce Owls first. They were the spearheads as well as the main force of any attacks, which turned out to be a great problem!”
“What I want to know is whether there is anything else called Fierce Owl apart from those tiny monsters.”
“No. Fierce Owls only refer to those little creatures. But why do you ask this?” Hearing the question Zhou Bao posed, Lord of Heaven Black Turtle felt a bit bewildered.
“Oh, nothing. Just asking.” Zhou Bao said, shaking his head. “Then, what’s your opinion regarding this incident?”
“In my view, the culprit is probably the Marquis Wugu!” Venerable Black Turtle spat out his answer without any hesitation. “Think, how did Marquis Wugu get out of the seal in the Pool of Thunder Tribulation? It’s because you guys entered the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode and broke the seal in the Pool of Thunder Tribulation. Since that guy surnamed Yu came under the control of a Devil Fetus, it was the Devil Fetus who opened the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode. The Devil Fetus was bred by the Primordial Demon locked in the Infinite Star Sea. Ultimately, the Primordial Demon was the one who released Marquis Wugu. This means he must have a long-standing connection with Marquis Wugu. After being suppressed for so many years, Marquis Wugu’s power was significantly lessened. Thus, after getting out of the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode, he had to seek a safe place in order to recuperate and build up his strength. When he finally recovered some of his strength and his self preservation was intact, he then reappeared. I am sure he is in cohorts with the Primordial Demon in the Infinite Star Sea!”
He paused for a second, and then he went on, “The Primordial Demon suppressed in the Infinite Star Sea is called Wu Chen and is famed for his wisdom among all the Primordial Demons. He used to be one of the military counselors when the Devil Realm invaded us in antiquity times, and that was the reason why Jade Emperor asked Fate Creation Boy to monitor the Infinite Star Sea years ago. Jade Emperor became suspicious when Wu Chen was not suppressed by us for his mistakes and instead, allowed himself to be captured on purpose. The reasons involved a huge plot devised by the Devil Realm. But unluckily, up to the end of antiquity times, Jade Emperor still had no clues about the plot.”
“If Jade Emperor failed to figure it out, then, no one could!” Zhou Bao smiled. “I’ve visited the Primordial Demon. He is sealed in a rhombic crystal, but he is still conscious. His divine thoughts can penetrate through the crystal and reach as far as 10,000 miles. Above all, he is really good at luring people!”
“Demon’s lure is the most difficult to fend off!” Lord of Heaven Black Turtle smiled bitterly. “This time, you refused him before hearing him out. But I believe you must have regretted it once you left, and you certainly thought about returning to that place to do a deal with him or just to hear what deal he would offer you, am I right?”
“How do you know that?”
“In antiquity times, a lot of men fell into his trap in this fashion. Among those guys were practitioners who had already reached the Divine Immortal Realm, but they still took the bait dangled by the Primordial Demon!”
“No way! Seems that I’m in serious trouble!”
“Not so serious!” Lord of Heaven Black Turtle sneered. “Things are not the same now, unlike during antiquity times. Without the unified governing of Heaven Realm World, all the macro worlds have been filtered and there are not so many rules and restrictions anymore. If the Devil Realm should launch their assault today, over half of the macro world will fall into their hands. When that time comes, no one will care who those Primordial Demons are dealing with. You should just take care of yourself, and make sure that you are not betrayed or killed by that bunch of Primordial Demons. That’s all!
“I’m still puzzled that Vast Sea Emperor knows I can’t kill the Primordial Demon, yet he still sent me to do the task? Is he out of his mind?”
“There’s nothing puzzling about it. Maybe this is his way of pushing you to make a deal with the Primordial Demon!” Lord of Heaven Black Turtle began to laugh. “Vast Sea Emperor is a Demonic Emperor. The relationship between our Demon Tribe and the Devil Tribe of primitive times is unlike the one we have with your mankind. The last time when Vast Sea Emperor came forward to restrain Marquis Wugu, I guess he was holding back his powers. Otherwise, given his strength and the fact that Marquis Wugu’s power had been significantly weakened, how could he fail to stop Marquis Wugu?”
“Are you saying among the 99 Emperors in antiquity times, Mankind Emperor did not get along with other emperors, especially Demonic Emperor?”
“Of course. Those emperors were from different races and represented different interests. How could they get along with each other?” Lord of Heaven Black Turtle smiled coldly. “Back then, your Mankind Emperor went all out to repress our Demonic Emperor. If it were not for the absolute power of Jade Emperor, how could Heaven Realm World have ruled over all the worlds?”
“I know little about the things that happened in antiquity times, and I do not have any interest in learning more. Now, I just want to know whether Vast Sea Emperor sent me to the Infinite Star Sea for the purpose of killing the Primordial Demon or is it just for letting the Primordial Demon have a chance to meet me.”
“The latter is more plausible. But anyway, you can just go and ask Vast Sea Emperor yourself!”
