"Don't you think it's weird?"
"Why should I?"
"My Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Essence and Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Essence can actually interconvert and it won't waste any power or induce any change. This is so weird. I've never heard of anything like that!"
Uncertainty was shown all over Zhou Bao's face. That was one thing that had him scratching his head. Why could his two Real Essences change with each other?
Although they were both Yang Internal Qi and Real Essence, they had different ways of practice. Furthermore, the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique was one of the 3,000 Great Ways, its power was infinite, which could be even stronger than the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. Now he was able to transform the Real Essence of the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire into the Real Essence of Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique. That was to say, he only needed to practice the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. Come what may, he could later transform it into the more powerful Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Essence anyway.
"Your Real Essence is not the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Essence. It is the Demonic Fire of Dragon Chimera, the Primitive Dragon Chimera. It is already better than the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Essence, even stronger than Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique. You have to understand that the Real Essence of Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique is born of Way of King and it is peaceful. It can't be as high-handed as your Dragon Chimera Demonic Fire. It is not surprising that it is now under the influence of the Dragon Chimera Fire!" Green Spirit smiled and looked at the golden ruler floating in front of Zhou Bao. "Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument is the embodiment of the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Gang Qi. It was born with various usages. It has an outstanding effect in oppressing the evil demonic ways. Kid, your strength has really elevated a lot this time!"
"The evil demonic ways?" Zhou Bao threw a sharp look at Green Spirit. "What is that? Are you one of them?"
"Haha, that's direct. I tell you what, the phrase 'evil demonic ways' was not a negative term in antiquity times, but a general designation for many practice schools. Those practice schools took shortcuts in practice and were obsessed with stronger strength. They all had powerful cultivation and their properties of the Real Essence and Dharma power were extreme and powerful. Schools like that were called "evil demonic ways". No one would have expected that these evil demonic ways would now be pushed aside like this. Only one Dark Sect remains, which is struggling to survive. What a sad scene!"
"So, my Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument is the nemesis of the Dark Sect?"
"You can say so. The Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument and Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique are able to oppress most of the secret skills and Divine Senses of the Dark Sect. So, if you come across the guys from Dark Sect, you can do whatever you want. They can't stop you unless you meet the real mighty in Dark Sect, the real master with huge power. Otherwise, you don't have to be afraid of them."
Zhou Bao nodded. With a swivel of his eyes, the golden Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Instrument turned into the most refined Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Gang Qi and spread all over the place. Zhou Bao then withdrew it into his body.
"Well, we are in Azure Secret Area long enough. We have done all we need to do and even obtained an unexpected harvest. Now we should get out of here, in case something bad happens!"
"Alright. I've also gained a lot and passed through the Thunder Tribulation!" Speaking of Thunder Tribulation, Green Spirit stared at Zhou Bao ruthlessly. "It's time to leave. I've left the Bigwheel Temple for such a long time and they received no news from me. They must be very worried!"
"What, Child-endowing Buddha doesn't enjoy enough freedom in Bigwheel Temple?"
"It's not like that. Child-endowing Buddha is one of the presiders of the magic formation that protects the Bigwheel Temple. He is also one of the most important combat capabilities. Now the world is experiencing a period of trouble, even the Bigwheel Temple has to raise its vigilance. Besides, Divine Wind Palace wants to control the Azure Secret Area, so it must get the understanding from Bigwheel Temple. At this juncture, Child-endowing Buddha can't leave easily."
"I got it!" Zho Bao nodded and stopped asking. As a cyan light flashed by, both of them left the Primordial Yang Mountain and rushed to their destination.
Zhou Bao did not know the way at that time, but with Green Spirit as a guide, they arrived at the entrance after flying for three days and three nights in the Essential Qi Tide.
At the entrance, Green Spirit transformed into a trace of pink fog, just like what it did when it just came here. It then followed Zhou Bao and left the Azure Secret Area.
"That's odd. There is no one here. Usually, there will be someone here to guard the Immortal Palace, won't there?"
As soon as Zhou Bao left the Azure Secret Area, he felt that something was fishy. The hall was empty and there was no one here, not even a rat. Dead silence reigned the entire place.
Suddenly, his expression changed massively. Waves after waves of powerful pneuma were coming down from above his head as if two enormous pneumas had a collision.
"Some enemy is coming!" At this moment, Zhou Bao had obviously figured out what was going on. He quickly moved his body and left the underground hall.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Once Zhou Bao got out of the villa, he sensed that the Yin and Yang Dust Formation had been activated. The entire Wuyang Region was shrouded by a cyan fog. Though the pneuma fluctuations in the environment were violent, they were not able to harm his Wuyang Region.
"All the Living Buddhas of Bigwheel Temple, I suggest you all leave here. I've told you so many times that the Child-endowing Buddha isn't in the Wuyang Region. You've come to the wrong place!"
Just when he felt that something was strange, Wang She's voice came from a distance with a tint of arrogance.
Bigwheel Temple and Child-endowing Buddha?
It turned out that the enemies were the monks of Bigwheel Temple!
"Amitabha, very good indeed. Chief Wang, this is the grudge between us Bigwheel Temple and Wuyang Region. It's none of your business unless the Tian Long Taoism wants to be an enemy of Snow Mountain Bigwheel Temple."
The voice of the Buddha bounced around as loud as the chime of a bronze clock. Although the location was fully covered by the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, the voice still ran through the entire formation.
"Haha, Yukun Buddha, please don't drag Tian Long Taoism into this. Even if you do, I don't give a damn. The Wuyang Region belongs to Zhou Bao, yet Zhou Bao is a disciple of our Tian Long Taoism as well as the future teaching elder in Tian Long Taoism. First it was Child-endowing Buddha, and now it's you, Yukun Buddha. You attacked Wuyang Region without a word. It's your Bigwheel Temple who provoked us deliberately. Although Tian Long Taoism is not a school with a rich history like Bigwheel Temple, we are not easily bullied. You are free to call on anything you have, and I'll take them all!" Wang She's voice was loud and righteous, making Yukun Buddha speechless for a moment.
After a while, Yukun Buddha said, "Almsgiver Wang, I admit, it was wrong that my junior brother, Child-endowing Buddha suddenly attacked the Wuyang Region and Zhou Bao. He also violated the Law of Heaven. Therefore, he should be punished by the Law of Heaven. I promise you, as long as you hand over my junior brother, I will escort him to the Immortal Punishment Hall and let him face justice."
"Do you really mean it?" This time, Zhou Bao asked before Wang She could give a response.
"Who is it?" Yukun Buddha was astonished by the change of voice. He knew this formation was now presided by Wang She and Zhou Bao was in closed-door training, so Wang She was the highest representative of the Wuyang Region force. Who dared to interrupt at this moment?
"I'm Zhou Bao, nice to meet you, Yukun Buddha." Zhou Bao smiled and jerked his arms as if he was ripping something. As the pneuma in Yin and Yang Dust Formation rippled, Zhou Bao vanished. And the next time he appeared, he was standing in front of Yukun Buddha.
At that moment, Yukun Buddha was totally trapped in the Death Gate of Yin and Yang Dust Formation. The dark hollow prevailed in this dead place. Various Sword Qi and turbulence, lightning and thunder attacked Yukun Buddha, the leader, and other people from Bigwheel Temple. Except for Yukun Buddha, there were five monks whose cultivation were all at Level Nine. Among those monks, Zhou Bao could only recognize Happy Monk, the disciple of Child-endowing Buddha.
Yukun Buddha sat cross-legged in the middle of the hollow with a circle of Buddhist halo glittering behind his head. It protected himself and five other monks who were at Level Nine. An extreme astonishment was shown on his skinny face.
Yes, astonishment!
How could he not be astonished?
Although not many people knew Child-endowing Buddha attacked Wuyang Region, after these a few days, everyone who was supposed to know it had already gotten the news. Yet the result was the same—Wuyang Region remained intact while Child-endowing Buddha disappeared.
However, in normal circumstances, no way would he have believed that Child-endowing Buddha could be defeated in such a small place like Wuyang Region.
Zhou Bao was indeed famous, but that fame merely existed in the eyes of ordinary people, whereas others just reckoned him as an expert at Level Nine with combat capability near the level of an Individual Immortal.
Child-endowing Buddha was an expert at the peak of Mysterious Realm and his combat capability had already reached the Realm of True Immortality, even surpassing the general Genuine Immortals. He was even able to fight against the Venerable who had been through two Thunder Tribulations. With such combat capability, it was easy for him to defeat a boy who was even not an Immortal. As for the Wuyang Region and the expert of Tian Long Taoism, he would not even pay them any attention.
The Tian Long Taoism could only seek hegemony in the mortal world. In the eyes of those ranked as Immortals, Wang She was the same as Zhou Bao, an expert at Level Nine, unworthy for them to incur massive conflicts.
Therefore, when they first heard that Child-endowing Buddha may have been defeated by Zhou Bao, they did not believe a word. But after a month, when they found that Child-endowing Buddha had not returned, the Bigwheel Temple started to panic. As what Green Spirit said, normally, even if Child-endowing Buddha disappeared for decades, the Bigwheel Temple would not care. But now in troubled times, it was different. Child-endowing Buddha was not only the one with the most combat capability in Bigwheel Temple, but also a crucial part of Mandala Formation which was used to protect the Bigwheel Temple. Without him, the entire Mandala Formation could not operate properly, resulting in a huge decrease in its power. Although Child-endowing Buddha was a dissolute person, he was definitely not a person who would ignore the big picture. Therefore, Bigwheel Temple started to realize that something went wrong.
Now that the Bigwheel Temple could not do without Child-endowing Buddha, it asked Yukun Buddha to lead five disciples at Level Nine to look for Child-endowing Buddha. Their first destination was Wuyang Region.
However, none of them expected that they would be stuck in this magical formation the moment they arrived at Wuyang Region. By the time when their combined powers could hardly protect themselves, Yukun Buddha started to believe that Child-endowing Buddha truly suffered a setback here.
After failing to break the formation, Yukun Buddha had to swallow his pride to negotiate with Wang She who controlled this formation. But Wang She was unmoved by force or persuasion and he stuck to the claim that Zhou Bao was in closed-door training and he knew nothing. If there was something needed to be discussed, Yukun Buddha had to wait for Zhou Bao to handle. And all of this irritated him a lot.
However, he could do nothing but resist this formation and reason with Wang She. And now, Zhou Bao exited training.
