Omnipotent Sage

Ruo Lin sounded like a very idol-like name.

That was the name of the little girl who had pulled Zhou Bao away. She was shocked to find that his spirit had been injured and he had lost most of his memories.

“Cundi, are you really sure that your spirit was injured and you don’t remember me anymore?” She stared at him with big round eyes and questioned him loudly. However, Zhou Bao saw a trace of joy in her eyes.

“This girl has a grudge against Cundi!” This thought flashed into Zhou Bao’s mind.

“It’s okay, it doesn’t matter even if you can’t remember anything. I know everything about you. You know, you were still wetting your bed when you were eight, so embarrassing! During that time, you already had the cultivation of an Individual Immortal!” Ruo Lin said joyfully. “Also, you must remember, I am your older sister, understand? You have been following my instructions since you were young and you have to do the same now. If I tell you to go to the East, you can’t go to the West; if I tell you to go to the South, you can’t go to the North, understand?”

Seeing Ruo Lin’s satisfied expression, the corners of Zhou Bao’s lips twitched a little. This little girl had nearly reached the cultivation of a Genuine Immortal. She wore a light red dress, which turned out to be a Lower Grade fairy weapon. This was the thing that allowed her to be so swift in evading the Fierce Owls’ attacks. She even helped to protect Zhou Bao against a sudden burst of attack.

“Okay, let’s not talk too much, come over here quickly!”

The two talked as they walked towards Shengjing City. Everyone was rushing out of the city but Ruo Lin pulled him towards it instead.

“Hey, what help can I give? There are too many Fierce Owls inside. Even with your Lower Grade fairy weapon, we can’t withstand them for long!”

“I know, that’s why I went to look for you. Damn it, if you weren’t my little brother, I wouldn’t have saved you!” The little girl seemed very helpless.

Very quickly, Zhou Bao understood why Ruo Lin stated that she was saving herself.

Countless desperate cries for help could be heard. Outside the city, the giant city wall could no longer act as a defense line to protect them. It was a reminder that their lives were at stake.

“Hmph, this invasion has been planned long ago. The Devil Tribe must have planted a spy here to do something. If not, how is it possible for the Transmitting Formation to be connected so easily!”

“You’re saying that the people from Devil Realm connected the Transmitting Formation?!”

“Of course, if not, why were there so many Fierce Owls? Looks like the Devil Realm had planned this carefully. They want to take over Shengjing City and after that the whole of Eastern Thunder World. They even want to take over the whole Easternmost Land! Shengjing was just their first target, it’s impossible for them to fail!”

“Don’t forget, there’s also the Eastern Thunder Sect!”

“Seems we cannot escape from this. You can see that the people from Eastern Thunder Sect are already coming. Shengjing City’s magic defense formation has already been launched too. If you run outside, it will be a dead end!”

“How do you know so much?”

“Because I’m smart!” The little girl looked very pleased with herself. “We are here, help me to open this freaking big door!”

“Big door?” Zhou Bao paused for a while as he saw a very strange scene in front of him. Just when all the practitioners and trainees were behaving like headless flies, there was a bunch of people gathered in a secluded corner, trying to force open a small magic formation. They were frantically attacking the wall in front of them.

Why did this situation look so weird?

“Ruo Lin, you’re back! You risked your life and ran out just for this fella?”

Just when Zhou Bao was feeling that everything seemed so strange, a discordant voice rang out.

“Such strong jealousy! I just arrived and do not want to get involved with such strange affairs!” A young man was speaking. Most of the people present were all young; they looked like they were below 30. From his speech, Zhou Bao could tell that this was someone who had not experienced many worldly matters yet, even with his abilities of a Lord of Heaven.

“Yes, this is Cundi, I mentioned him to you guys before. He was my senior brother when I was younger so I invited him to help us!”

“So you are Ruo Lin’s senior brother! Apologies for being rude!” Another young woman had a faint trace of a smile in her eyes. “Cundi senior brother, it’s so great of you to come and help! You see, we have already used up all our energy, yet we still can’t open this wall, can you help?”

“Wall? Why do you need to open this wall?!” Zhou Bao looked at the wall and then glanced at everyone. There were about seven to eight people here. Among them was a man who stood out from the rest. He wore a robe similar to what Kang the Pocked wore when he was speaking on the podium. However, this guy was not Kang the Pocked, because he was much younger. He had a childlike look about him. He was the only one who had a different expression from the others. It looked like he was not part of this small group.

“It is to enable us to leave the Royal Capital. There is a Transmitting Formation inside. It is also the last form of escape for members of the Royalty in the Qing Dynasty, which is why it is so well protected. We have to act fast, otherwise, they’ll destroy the Transmitting Formation after they leave.”

As he spoke, some of them started using their magic weapons to attack the wall.

“This will not work!” Zhou Bao squinted as he took a closer look at the wall covered in fine prints. “This is made of a special material and the fine print is a magic formation. All your attacks will only serve to strengthen it. The more you attack, the stronger it gets!”

“How do you know this?” There were some who did not believe what Zhou Bao said and started to turn on him.

“Because I have always been using this magic formation to strengthen the power of my fist!” Zhou Bao smiled and leaned forward. He punched the wall and said, “This kind of magic formation cannot withstand my fist attack!”

Boom!!!

The stone wall was shattered by his punch. It opened up to reveal a passageway as well as a few startled people standing inside.

“Mother!” The man who was wearing the same colored robe as the Emperor, saw a shadow. He let out a shriek and rushed immediately towards it. At the same time, numerous Sword Qi saber lights shot towards the bunch of people who had broken through the wall. This bunch of people started to emit multi-colored lights and rushed headlong into the Sword Qi saber lights.

“Quick, get in!”

At this moment, be it Ruo Lin or anyone else, no one thought to ask Zhou Bao how he was able to deliver such a strong punch. They only had one goal in mind and that was to defeat these imperial court martial experts and head to the Transmitting Formation. They could then leave this Royal Capital of Shengjing, which was turning into a hellish place.

War broke out instantly. The teen in the robe, along with his mother and a few other people, were protected by the “imperial court martial experts” as they ran towards the depths of the passageway.

Zhou Bao and Ruo Lin were not attacked by the imperial court martial experts. That was because one had a fairy weapon and the other one had a combat capability that was way stronger than those experts. The duo evaded the experts and started to run towards the direction the teen had gone. After a few moments, Ruo Lin’s companions, having defeated their opponents, caught up with them.

“Wow, Cundi, who knew that your ability was so strong that you were able to settle our problem with just one punch!”

“Yes, I have heard Ruo Lin talking about you before. Weren’t you an expert in sword skills? How come you have such good punching skills as well?”

Although the crowd had differing opinions about Zhou Bao, his punch left a deep impression on them. At least in a situation like this, they knew better than to mess around with this guy who had such unfathomable skills.

“I lost interest in practicing sword techniques, so I changed to practicing punching skills instead!” Zhou Bao laughed. Ruo Lin, however, had an alarmed expression on her face. That was because she saw him hesitate before he replied.

“Quick, look, it is the Transmitting Formation! We’re here!” At this moment, those eagle-eyed members of the group already spotted the small Transmitting Formation as well as the crowd of people inside of it. These people were probably the Royal members from the Qing Dynasty.

The Royal members saw them almost at the same time that they saw the Transmitting Formation. They all looked fearful. Hidden imperial court martial experts attacked again and tried to stop them from going into the Transmitting Formation.

“The Devil Tribe, it’s the Devil Tribe, they are in now! They were the ones who opened the passageway and let the Devil Tribe in!” At this moment, a mournful voice was heard coming from the crowd. In the small space, the flapping of wings and piercing shrieks could be heard from the approaching Fierce Owls.

“Looks like we really do not have any more time to wait!” Zhou Bao sighed and dived into the formation.

Bang bang bang bang bang!

A series of loud bangs could be heard. The imperial court martial experts who ran towards them fell under Zhou Bao’s fist attack and were killed instantly, turning into blood red fog. They had no ways to resist the fist attack.

After dealing with them, Zhou Bao pulled Ruo Lin, who was beside him and flashed his body continuously. Instantly, he appeared on the Transmitting Formation. He stomped twice and sent everyone on the formation flying. After that, he took over the two main positions and launched the formation.

These series of actions were as swift as a seagull catching its prey in the sea. After everything was over, the Transmitting Formation was fully launched. Zhou Bao and Ruo Lin, as well as a crew of Royal members from the Qing Dynasty, disappeared into the sea of glistening light.

“Catch the two thieves!”

The effect of the Transmitting Formation was a great shock. Instantly, the glowing light started to dim. At the same time, a shriek rang out beside Zhou Bao. In the same instant, Zhou Bao held Ruo Lin’s hand and used his Three Realms Division technique. Before the crowd could even react, they disappeared without a trace.
