“The Devil Tribe is pretty cautious. They haven’t come here to usurp the passageway of the Immortal Realm directly!”
“Humph, they’re also afraid of the unusual movements of the World Chakra. As soon as they can find a guy who is able to sense the World Chakra, they’ll rush in at once!”
Inside the white palace in the depths of the Forest of Mysteries, the Celestial Mystery Emperor and Emperor Youming were monitoring the Falling Star Reef without blinking. They did not spot any obvious invasion from the Devil Tribe, and they both felt a bit disappointed.
“This Marquis Zhihai is not easy to tackle, either!”
“Not easy to tackle, so what? If they target the passageway, they will bite at the bait. We just need to be patient!” The Celestial Mystery Emperor said slowly. “Actually it is Zhou Bao we should be paying more attention to. His Supreme Fairy Weapon is much trickier to handle than we expected. It’s very powerful. And now, it’s absorbed the essential Dharma of two macro worlds. This guy’s fate is too strong. And he chose to go against us out in the open. If we don’t dampen his overweening attitude, he’s going to be big trouble for us!”
“Right. We’ll be in deep trouble if we allow him to act wildly. It’s just that…the Emperor of the Azure Heaven—”
“When did we start considering his opinion before taking action?” The Celestial Mystery Emperor suddenly looked back, his face dark and unpleasant. “He does his business, we do ours. We always stay out of his affairs, and he stays out of ours. When he fails to control the situation on his side, he shouldn’t expect us to fix his—”
Before he finished the sentence, his expression altered.
“Crap!” Standing next to him, the Emperor Youming shivered abruptly. A sudden ghastly and bloodcurdling air gripped the whole palace.
However, it was too late to react.
The Celestial Mystery Emperor’s face was frozen. His cramping muscles, his frightened expression, and his significant look startled Emperor Youming. He had worked with the Celestial Mystery Emperor for thousands of years, but this was the first time he had seen the Celestial Mystery Emperor reveal such an expression. He did not know why but this expression made his hair stand on end.
All these thoughts occurred in a split second. Although it happened all of a sudden, the two Great Ancient Emperors had been through all kinds of crises. They quickly realized what was going on.
“Who is it? How dare you are!” The Celestial Mystery Emperor’s frozen face quickly recovered its usual composure. The terror was replaced by overbearing killing intent.
“Hehe, how rich your murderous intent is! What’s it feel like to be stabbed in the arsehole? You’re truly a Great Ancient Emperor. Even endured the pain of the Poisonous Hitching Post!” Zhou Bao’s voice rang out. A fine light emerged quietly, immediately landing between the Celestial Mystery Emperor’s eyebrows.
“Holy crap!”
The Celestial Mystery Emperor felt his body stiffen. When he wanted to take action, he was shocked to find that he couldn’t move.
A jet of powerful Sword Qi condensed into a dot and zoomed at the spot right between his eyebrows.
Crap!
Emperor Youming knew something bad had occurred. He reacted quickly, but Zhou Bao was faster, and his strike was more atrocious and relentless.
In an instant, the Immortal-killing Sword Qi and the Immortal-slaying Sword Qi cracked the Celestial Mystery Emperor’s head open. At the same time, the huge body of the Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan appeared and advanced on Emperor Youming.
He launched the Mysterious Icy Divine Light, the Eight Nine Mysterious Skill, the Heavenly Jade Technique, and the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill simultaneously.
Strong force froze the surrounding gruesome air that had permeated this place.
The icy blue air almost froze the entire palace.
“Nine Turns of Youming, Parade of Ghost Troops!”
Emperor Youming made a strike. Immediately, the space was filled with dreadful wails and howls. Several ghosts emerged and threw themselves at Zhuyan like mad, trying to stop Zhou Bao.
But it was too late!
Zhuyan’s colossal body suddenly contracted and disappeared. The red gourd Zhou Bao had launched also vanished. Shape Sword Qi shattered the Celestial Mystery Emperor’s body as well as his spirit. It even rendered the macro world the Celestial Mystery Emperor had refined into pieces.
When Emperor Youming reappeared beside the Celestial Mystery Emperor, his body was already lifeless. It turned into specks of light and vanished from sight.
“No way! It’s impossible!”
Despite his rich experience on the battlefield and knowledge of eccentric things beyond Zhou Bao’s imagination, now, facing such a scenario, he was blinking his eyes in shock, unconvinced of what had just happened. His spirit scanned the place like a radar, attempting to discover a sign of the Celestial Mystery Emperor. If he discovered just a trace of the Celestial Mystery Emperor’s Original Spirit, he could manage to revive him.
But the cold hard facts let him down. All of the Celestial Mystery Emperor’s spirit had gone. His spirit had truly disappeared before Emperor Youming, disappeared into the chilling Sword Qi.
“Impossible! This is utterly impossible!” Emperor Youming bellowed. He launched his Youming Heaven.
“Swish!”
Influenced by the Youming Heaven, the whole Forest of Mysteries darkened. But his efforts were futile.
“Haha, Netherworld Heaven, what a great device! Never thought this thing could have such a function!” Zhou Bao had already cracked the space and disappeared in the endless spacetime. “If it was not for the Netherworld Heaven, I might have actually let the Celestial Mystery Emperor get away!”
“If you hadn’t possessed the Netherworld Heaven, I wouldn’t have agreed to let you assassinate the Celestial Mystery Emperor!” Ghost Child cackled, sticking out his tongue to lick the corners of his mouth as if he was still longing for more. “The Celestial Mystery Emperor, a Great Ancient Emperor! He was indeed a sophisticated Earthly Immortal. He was very tasty! Thanks to your Reincarnation Roulette extracting his spirit out at the crucial moment, I finally had a hearty meal!”
“I didn’t know you like eating practitioners’ spirits!” Zhou Bao murmured, giving him a bizarre look.
“Just one of my little hobbies. You got a problem with it?”
“No!” Zhou Bao said indifferently. “But it never occurred to me that we could do the Celestial Mystery Emperor in so smoothly. I thought we were merely giving him a heavy blow!”
“The way of assassination requires the assassin to hit the target with only one strike. Since you chose to assassinate him, you had to succeed without leaving any potential trouble!” Ghost Child said. “You did very well. But now, you’ve thoroughly messed things up!”
“Really? I messed things up?” Zhou Bao asked, his expression altered. “You seem to be implying something!”
“No, I’m not. I just hope you can murder more Emperors in the future. Their spirits are really helpful for strengthening my power!” Ghost Child yelled. “The spirit of a Great Ancient Emperor is extremely conducive to my recovering!”
“Fine, got it!” Zhou Bao agreed. “But it’s not that easy to kill a Great Ancient Emperor. Though we made it just now, I still feel like we’re in a dream!”
“You’re not dreaming, the Celestial Mystery Emperor is truly dead!” Ghost Child leaped out of the gourd and fluttered in front of Zhou Bao. He said with a big grin, “Do you know what his death means?”
“What does it mean?”
“It means that their fate is declining. The fate of the Great Ancient Emperors is declining. Haha, you know what, their fate has started declining!”
“No—” An indignant growl spread out from the Forest of Mysteries, causing the Old Chinese Parasol to shake with fear.
Emperor Youming’s expression was incredibly cold and enraged. But hiding behind all the chill and fury was a trace of undetectable panic.
Yes, it was panic. He was overwhelmed by panic.
The Celestial Mystery Emperor had died. He had died so simply, died right in front of Emperor Youming. Everything seemed like a dream now.
Although the 99 Emperors in antiquity times had powered through countless tribulations, bumped into innumerable hardships, faced myriads of enemies, they had all survived. They had seen all sorts of crises, dueled against all kinds of opponents who were way more vicious, powerful, and crazier than Zhou Bao. They had seen it all, endured all disasters, and survived all the wounds, but there was never a time that one of them had been killed.
But, how about now?
Emperor Youming felt streams of cold sweat trickling down; chilling air penetrated into his heart.
“Fate, fate, is, is it true that our fate is on the wane now? Is it true that our era is about to end?” Looking at the hollow around him, terror burst out from the depths of his heart.
Void Immortal Realm
Compared with all the other macro worlds, this place was more mysterious. It was full of pneuma and Dharmas, as though all the abstruse secrets of the Void Universe had assembled here.
In this dark place within the Immortal Realm, Dharmas prone to the dark had formed an abyss. Mystic shadows haunted in the depths of the abyss. Suddenly, a loud sigh sounded from the abyss and spread far away.
“It’s finally about to begin, isn’t it?”
“Ghost Yin, stop moaning. It’s no use. You already have someone to inherit all your assets, don’t you? Even if you die, you’ll die with no regrets!”
“Ghost Snake, shut up!” A figure in the abyss snapped. “The passageway is just about to open again, but it seems that our successor is still unprepared. He is so weak. Once he gets involves in this, he will die before knowing what’s killing him!”
“Hee hee, you don’t have to worry about him. He is very close to that boy with a tough fate. He is getting luckier and luckier. Perhaps, when the passageway opens, he’ll be able to handle everything by himself!”
“Humph, even if he can handle the Human World by himself, even though he is close to that boy, so what? That boy killed the Celestial Mystery Emperor, and this murder will certainly draw the attention of alert people. I believe, his name will soon be added to the to-kill list, right?”
“Ghost Yin, you should know with his fate, he won’t be impacted even if he is on the target list!”
“I’m worried about your successor. Recent days have been quite eventful. If he keeps following that boy, he might get into trouble that’s not his own!”
“He won’t be my successor, nor will he be qualified to be one if he never endures a bloody storm. The Dharma Ending Tribulation is his last practice. If he passes, he’ll become the next Taoist Snake!”
“Then, I wish you good luck!” Another shadow in the abyss said. “Now, I’m going to arrange the work of hunting that boy down!” As his words faded, a jet of terrifying willpower swept across the hollow and reached the Void Universe.
