Chapter 505: The Secret of the Void Map (Part 1)

“It seems that there are different rankings for Pure Yang Celestial Devices. And the ranking corresponds to the number of talismans in the talisman formation!”

Zhou Bao had a sudden flash of insight. He owned numerous Pure Yang Celestial Devices but did not have the time to refine them. In reality, he did not dare to take them out. The Earth-enveloping Seal belonged to Master Jinhua, not the Rolling Dragon King. Although he had obtained many valuable treasures from the Rolling Dragon King, it took too much effort to use them. He did not even have the energy to refine them.

As for the Earth-enveloping Seal, he had tried it once or twice. Although it was a Pure Yang Celestial Device, based on its power alone, it was comparable to the Flipping Sky Seal. Therefore, he did not see a need to flaunt it. However, he did not expect to come across such a situation. To discover such a secret was completely beyond Zhou Bao’s imagination.

The discovery had been a coincidence. The talisman in the Earth-enveloping Seal originated from the Flipping Sky Seal. This was why it succeeded so easily. If it was not for this, the Earth-enveloping Seal might have met the same outcome as the Dragon Seal.

Looking at it now, the Flipping Sky Seal that had fused with the Earth-enveloping Seal, when compared to the original Earth-enveloping Seal and Flipping Sky Seal, was a whole lot stronger. This was not a mere coincidence. At the same time, it sparked off several ideas in Zhou Bao’s head.

“Since the Flipping Sky Seal could be operated this way, what about the Infinite Trembling Contemplation? And the Seven Wonderful Techniques?”

Was it possible that if he could really find a corresponding Pure Yang Celestial Device, or even create his own corresponding Pure Yang Celestial Device, he could fuse it with another Celestial Device just like the Flipping Sky Seal?”

Once this idea emerged, it stayed rooted in his mind. It was impossible to dislodge it. He stood at one spot in a dazed manner, deep in thought. After an extraordinary amount of time had passed, he was finally shaken out of his reverie by the first rays of sunshine rising from the east.

“Damn, what have I been daydreaming about? The Eight Words have not been defeated yet. I have been very lucky this time round. Who knows how long I would have to wait until another chance like this comes again. Still, with this new Flipping Sky Seal, my combat capability has definitely increased!”

“Wasn’t that a big deal?”

The last time he used the Flipping Sky Seal, the one composed entirely of pure Real Essence, it not only depleted an enormous quantity of the Real Essence, but it also exerted a huge strain on his tendons and meridians. Of course, with Zhou Bao’s superior Real Essence, strong tendons and meridians, this was something he could easily ignore. Still, making a Flipping Sky Seal would require time. Was it a good time now?

It was a totally different matter now that the two seals have fused and were being sustained in his Dantian. On the one hand, one seal would be strengthened by the Mysterious Divine Light’s sustenance and slowly increase in strength. On the other hand, the Flipping Sky Seal’s old spirit which was able to suppress all things would also be in contact with his Mysterious Divine Light and thus could also increase its strength. Plus, the Pure Yang Qi received from that was also hugely beneficial for Zhou Bao’s body. Although Zhou Bao was not too concerned about this benefit, having some was still better than none.

Zhou Bao wished that something as good as this would happen more regularly. However, he did not have that many secret skills now. He only had the Infinite Trembling Contemplation and the Seven Wonderful Techniques. Although these two secret skills were powerful, they did not have the fixed formation when it was in use, unlike the one that characterized the Flipping Sky Seal. Without a fixed formation, there was no target. Only the Heavens knew what their fixed forms looked like.

Forget about the Infinite Trembling Contemplation. Zhou Bao believed that once he gained the knowledge of the secret skill, it would eventually fix its shape. But what about the two types in the Seven Wonderful Techniques?

Heavenly Jade Technique and the Snake-like Breath Holding Technique – would these two techniques have a fixed formation as well?

Zhou Bao did not know!

“Forget it. Stop thinking too much. This is not going to help me. This big seal would be useful for now. Hehe, this thing should be called the Flipping Sky Seal and not the Earth-enveloping Seal. I would love to find a chance to use this seal’s power. I just need someone to test this Celestial Device on. It would come in useful if I need to hit someone. Sigh, when will that person appear so that I can try this out? I am really looking forward to that moment!”

Zhou Bao pursed his lips and gazed at the rising sun on the eastern horizon. He had many random thoughts running through his mind. Finally, he sighed helplessly and left.

In the infinite hollow, there was a flash of a strange white color.

At Taihua Mountain which was drifting in the hollow, Fate Creation Boy sat cross-legged. His smooth eyebrows were now tightly furrowed. He seemed to be deep in thought.

Venerable Black Turtle had a helpless look on his face. “What if we tell the sects about the Infinite Star Sea matter? Maybe they will not go anymore!”

“That won’t do. Those are all quick-witted men. Especially Yu Taixu from Divine Wind Palace – he’s way too greedy. If we were to tell him the secret of the Infinite Star Sea, it would only increase his greed. When the time comes, there will be huge trouble.”

“But this is not the way either. They are preparing to leave for the Infinite Star Sea soon. Once they remove the restrictions, there would be so much trouble!”

“I know. That’s why I’m having a headache now!” Fate Creation Boy laughed. “We have invested so much effort and put in a lot of sacrifices in order to seal the Infinite Star Sea back then. Who would have thought that such an accident would happen? How frustrating!”

“Squeak!” Just when Fate Creation Boy was racking his brains, an odd sound could be heard. A streak of grey flashed by and a squirrel-like creature scurried onto his shoulder. It was squeaking non-stop at him, as if trying to comfort him.

If Zhou Bao was present, he would have shouted aloud. This was because the grey creature was the same one that was able to operate the Three Realms Division; the one he encountered at Misty Mountain. The creature smelt really bad, yet the two of them were able to get along well. But when Zhou Bao returned to Misty Mountain once more, he could no longer find it. He genuinely felt a bit sad. He did not expect that it would have gone to Taihua Mountain.

As for the Venerable Black Turtle, his eyes shone once he saw the creature. “You’re right. Why not get Zhou Bao to help us keep an eye on it. This guy’s skills are really so impressive that even I don’t know how strong he really is. Plus, he isn’t really on good terms with the sects, especially Divine Wind Palace. Their conflict is simply not something that can be easily mediated and resolved. Look!”

“This…” Fate Creation Boy grabbed the little creature on his shoulders and began stroking his head. He sighed heavily, “I did think about that. But just like what you said, I no longer know what he is like now. This guy is keeping a huge secret and he always has great luck. I really don’t want to have too much interaction with him in case I get embroiled in it too!”

“But you are already deeply involved!” Venerable Black Turtle sighed. “Don’t forget you saved his life back then. Both of you are also connected in the Sea Area. He knows that you exist. To get out of this situation would not be easy. This matter is significant. Unless you are willing to sever all ties with the five sects, then you have no power to stop this. Why not let Zhou Bao help? Perhaps you’ll stand a chance then. As for implicating Zhou Bao, that isn’t so important!”

“Squeak squeak”

The little creature responded to Venerable Black Turtle’s words by making squeaking sounds

“You little creature, are you trying to be involved too?” Fate Creation Boy joked. “However, it does seem like the only way now. I just don’t know if Zhou Bao will be willing to accept. He had only recently been bullied by the five biggest sects. He must be feeling very bitter now!”

“It is precisely because of this bitterness that he would be willing to make the five biggest sects suffer!”

“Then try. Give him all the information. If you really want to form ties with this fellow, then you have to provide him with specific details. To involve yourself with a man of such good fortune would not be an easy feat. If something messes up, there would be lots of trouble in the future. Therefore, you have to explain to him clearly!”

“I understand!”Venerable Black Turtle nodded. “So, you’re not preparing to show yourself?”

“Yes. You have worked with him before. You are the best person to do this. Oh right, bring this creature along too. It also has some ties with Zhou Bao previously. Plus, he is talented and will be able to gain insights about the Great Way of Heavens and Realms. There are not many places that are off-limits to him in Heaven and Earth. Getting him to be the messenger is a great choice!”

“Ok!” Venerable Black Turtle nodded and frowned at the little creature. He pinched his nose and gently carried it.

“Alright, little fella. Don’t fart. I’m going to bring you to someone you once knew!”

At this point it was already morning. Zhou Bao returned to the Inner Yard of King Wuyang’s place. Yan Yunfei and her children were sound asleep. Zhou Bao did not dare to disturb them. Instead he returned to his study room and felt a strange sense of relief arising spontaneously.

Although this time he was not in an advantageous situation and had been coerced to sign a treaty, he somehow felt relieved after signing it.

For him, the biggest difficulty was ensuring his family’s safety. From a certain perspective, this was the responsibility he had to carry for a three-thousand-year-old family. It was a huge burden to his cultivation and mental state. One could not possibly practice cultivation and at the same time worry about a family’s safety. And as his powers grew stronger, the number of enemies also grown. His worries had increased greatly but now everything was alright. With a treaty and within a span of a century, he did not have to fear for his family’s safety. He had completely resolved all his worries. This huge sense of relief had elevated his mental state and the Mysterious Divine Light within him had progressed greatly.

“I don’t know if this is a curse or my fate!” Zhou Bao laughed at himself. “But it’s good this way too. Although my combat capability had long surpassed that of the Venerable Realm, my cultivation is still at the Mysterious Realm. Having fused with the Real Body of Zhuyan, my status is equivalent to the peak in the Pulse-steadying Realm. Why not use this chance to get my Mysterious Divine Light and my body to surpass the Blood-changing Realm; to use a human body to surpass the Three Big Realms? My strength can then be transformed totally. Who knows what it will be like to be the Real Body of Zhuyan in the future? Hey, why is it so smelly?”
