Zhou Bao’s expression had not shown a flick of arrogance when he defeated and killed the Celestial Mystery Emperor. On the contrary, he was under the impression that he was following a dimly discernible track in an unseen world. But now, he finally started to see what kind of track he was following—it was the track of his destiny. After assassinating the Celestial Mystery Emperor, this track was becoming increasingly clear.
Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he asked abruptly, “You said Wang She obtained the heritage of Taoist Snake. Well, who on earth is this Taoist Snake?”
“Taoist Snake is one of the Celestial Immortals who has been living since primitive times. In this world, he is one of the 10 most ancient Celestial Immortals. That’s all I know. The 10 most ancient Celestial Immortals always keep themselves distant from the public, so I, a fairy weapon that was produced during the Primordial Origin, only have a vague idea of who they are. But it’s only a vague idea. If you want more information, my hands are tied!”
“Wang She can inherit his heritage? Seems like he got really lucky!”
“Haven’t you obtained the heritage of Taoist Reincarnation? That’s equally wonderful!”
“You mentioned that there were 10 most ancient Celestial Immortals. But specifically, who are they?”
“Taoist Zhen Yuan is one of them, you already know him. As to the rest, I only know there are Taoist Snake, Taoist Jin, and Taoist Reincarnation. The identities of the other six are beyond my knowledge. But you don’t have to be so curious. Once the passageway opens and you enter the real Void Immortal Realm, you’ll have a chance to learn about them!”
“Are you saying they’re in the Void Immortal Realm?”
“Very likely. Since primitive times, the 10 Taoists have never revealed themselves. The most probable place for them to live would naturally be the Void Immortal Realm. Of course, it’s also possible that they’ve created a new world in the Void Universe and are staying there!”
“Then, will the 10 Taoists interfere with this Immortal Realm issue?”
“Maybe they will, maybe not. No one knows!” Ghost Child answered with a note of helplessness. “I’m just an old fairy weapon. What I know about them really consists of only a few remnants of fuzzy memories!”
“These old guys disappeared in the primitive times and no one ever heard of them since then. However, today, they exposed their traces one after another, and this is what concerns me most!”
“The Dharma Ending Tribulation is around the corner. These old Celestial Immortals are probably affected by it, so they’ve begun to reveal their traces. Or perhaps they’ve been making arrangements to avoid the inevitable Dharma Ending Tribulation and World-ending Tribulation since antiquity times or even primitive times. And now, since it’s about to occur, they’re all going into action!”
“These guys’ actions are not something we can speculate. You cannot ignore or offend them by relying on your strong fate. These Celestial Immortals have long been free of the restriction of fate. No matter how great your fate is, they can crush you with just one finger. But compared to the Dharma Ending Tribulation, what they really care about is supposed to be the World-ending Tribulation. Even if they make moves during the Dharma Ending Tribulation, it only means that they’re taking action in advance for the sake of the following arrangements to tackle the World-ending Tribulation. All you need to do is stay out of their way!”
“Then, tell me, is it possible that the Celestial Mystery Emperor is one of the guys they sent to carry out their actions in advance? Don’t forget that Emperor Youming is a disciple of Taoist Reincarnation. If the Celestial Mystery Emperor is some Taoist’s—”
“No way!” Ghost Child denied Zhou Bao’s presumption resolutely.
“Why?”
“If he truly had these Taoists as his backup, you would not have been able to kill him. Further, the reason you got rid of the Celestial Mystery Emperor was not your power, but the fact that you just comprehended the power of reincarnation. It’s because of the power of the Reincarnation Roulette that you managed to finish him thoroughly. This also shows that the Celestial Mystery Emperor was not backed by these ancient Celestial Immortals. Otherwise, you could not have grasped the power of the Reincarnation Roulette, nor could you have killed him with that power!”
“Really?”
“Of course! Do you think these Celestial Immortals would just stab each other in the back for entertainment?” Ghost Child laughed coldly. “You got the Reincarnation Scroll and achieved the Reincarnation Roulette in the Big Azure World, you’ve inherited a part of the teachings of Taoist Reincarnation. The other guys won’t target you recklessly!”
“So can I really lay aside all my anxiety and sleep with an easy mind?”
“You’re a Tribulation Taker. These Taoists never pick on Tribulation Takers. You only need to take heed of the Great Ancient Emperors!” After pondering over the question for a while, Ghost Child answered with assurance. “Each of the 99 Emperors in antiquity times was born as nature requires. Only after pulling through numerous difficulties and tests did they become Emperors. But when antiquity times ended, these Emperors’ fates basically came to an end. That’s why they went into hiding. They spent 810,000 years in hiding so as to prepare for the upcoming Dharma Ending Tribulation. As the Dharma Ending Tribulation is drawing nearer, their arrangements are also in place, so they thought it might be safe to stick their heads out from hiding. But the moment they did, the Celestial Mystery Emperor was killed by you. It’s fate! The death of the Celestial Mystery Emperor further demonstrates that their fate is coming to an end. In the future, if they don’t have a sure-fire way, they will never dare to make a move, especially when they come across a guy with strong fate like you!”
“That’s great. I was worried that these guys would create endless trouble for me!”
“They won’t. Only a fool would go against a guy with great fate when his own fate is going downhill. Taking warning from the Celestial Mystery Emperor’s failure, no one will dare to provoke you. You should take this opportunity to go to the Immortal Realm and assemble your power. It would be ideal if you could obtain the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique. Then, if you integrate your Seven Wonderful Techniques and go through the Earthly Immortal Tribulation, you’ll be more confident to face the Dharma Ending Tribulation!”
“Should I go to the Immortal Realm now?”
“Yes, go now. The gate of the Immortal Realm is open. If you miss it and let the Devil Realm arrive first, it’ll be too late. Since the Celestial Mystery Emperor died, the immortals have lost their backbone. They can no longer baffle the Devil Tribe. This time, the Devil Tribe is bound to win. Once they take full control of the gate of the Immortal Realm, it’ll be very difficult to get in!”
“Such being the case, I will pay a visit to the Immortal Realm!” Zhou Bao gave this a thought and made his decision. Without hesitation, he launched the Black Pearl, penetrated layers of spaces, and returned to the Falling Star Reef.
The situation in the Falling Star Reef had reversed. Numerous members from the Devil Tribe had flooded in and formed a huge devious formation to stabilize the messy pneuma. Under the leadership of Marquis Zhihai, Earthly Immortals from the Devil Tribe were standing in front of the gate of the Immortal Realm, gazing at the ancient gateway.
“This, this is the gate of the Immortal Realm, the passageway connecting the Heaven Realm World with the Void Immortal Realm!” Marquis Wugu let out a soft sigh. “Never thought our Devil Tribe would one day stand in front of it!”
“Yes! The Gate of the Immortal Realm, it’s the real gate of the Immortal Realm! Hahaha, Marquis Zhihai, this time we truly made a great contribution. We managed to take over the gate of the Immortal Realm, we—”
“Don’t get carried away. Although we have the gate of the Immortal Realm, that doesn’t mean we have nothing to worry about. There are many powerful guys hiding in the Immortal Realm. If we jump in rashly, who knows what we’ll bump into. We can’t cross this gate until His Majesty arrives. Until then, we will guard the gate carefully. Assemble all the forces here. The Void Universe is not like the Heaven Realm World!”
“Relax, Marquis Zhihai, we know what we’re doing. In the present Void Universe, there are 17 passageways leading to the Devil Realm. Except for the four largest ones that were used for restraining the four main worlds, our members have already traveled to the Desolate Ancient Star Area through other passageways. The Desolate Ancient Star Area is our territory now. If anyone, even an Earthly Immortal Emperor wants to break in, he will pay a huge price. Even if they use a Supreme Fairy Weapon, they have no way of getting here without alerting us.”
“Are you really sure of this?”
“Of course!” The one speaking was Marquis Bloody Hand, one of the Seven Marquises of the Blood Sea. He had been badly injured when the Endless Blood Sea went down with the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower. But thanks to his Earthly Immortal strength, he had recovered quickly. Now, all he thought about was how to make amends for his failure. When he found out they had the passageway in hand, he was overwhelmed with excitement.
“This is not as simple as you imagined. There is a lot I’m not sure of. But I’m certain that if Zhou Bao wants to get in, no one can stop him!”
“Zhou Bao? The kid that just went through the Immortal Tribulation? The Tribulation Taker? No way, we can outnumber…”
Before he could complete his sentence, the gate of the Immortal Realm, which had remained quiet all this time, suddenly trembled violently. A cloud of mysterious pneuma behind the gate curled and split apart, unveiling the unfathomable space behind the pneuma. But this momentary abnormality already told them everything.
“Someone just crossed the gate!”
“Who?”
“Could it be Zhou Bao?” When the crowd of Earthly Immortals started panicking, Marquis Zhihai silenced the restless crowd. He said thoughtfully, “The Tribulation Taker; he killed the Celestial Mystery Emperor; he already got in!”
“Then we—”
“Don’t try to stop him. Don’t make any undue move. Everything will be decided when His Majesty gets here!” Marquis Zhihai shouted. “Everything is under the control of His Majesty!”
Yes, everything was under the control of the Devil Emperor.
Marquis Zhihai had no idea about how strong the Devil Emperor was, but when the Celestial Mystery Emperor passed away, the Devil Emperor had immediately disclosed this news to him. At that time, the Devil Emperor had been far away from the location of the Celestial Mystery Emperor. But he still learned about the murder almost simultaneously, which meant his power was way superior to a normal Earthly Immortal’s. Later, a thrilling idea occurred to Marquis Zhihai, but he could not ascertain it or tell anyone else about it. Thus, he kept it deep in mind and strictly acted on the Devil Emperor’s orders.
“What’s the matter? How could this happen?”
At this precise moment, Marquis Bloody Hand and Marquis Wugu both let out a shriek of shock, because the gate of the Immortal Realm showed another unusual movement. It appeared that someone else had just walked across the gate and entered the Immortal Realm.
“How is this possible? Who are these guys?”
“They’re probably Tribulation Takers. The Dharma Ending Tribulation is about to happen. Do you still think there is only one Tribulation Taker in the Void Universe?” Marquis Zhihai smiled and turned to look at the mysterious gateway. “Everything is under His Majesty’s control. The Void Universe has five main worlds in it, so, there should be at least five Tribulation Takers. Zhou Bao is just one of them!”
