“Bang!” The cudgel was poked out, but it did not achieve the desired effect.


“Haha, boy, don’t be too naive! This is the Sumeru Sword Formation! Do you really think that you can locate me?”


Hearing the sound coming from behind him, Zhou Bao rammed the judge again without thinking. But he failed as before.


“Don’t do all these useless things. If this is really the Sumeru Sword Formation, you might be in trouble!” Green Spirit’s voice sounded in his mind, “If I were you, I’d stay here and look for a chance to break the formation!”


“You know this formation?”


“I’ve heard of it. It looks like a fairy formation. However, the materials used for setting formation are too simple. It’s not difficult to break open!” Green Spirit answered, “Use your Golden Flame Mirror!”


“There’s something wrong here. Everyone knows that I have a Pure Yang Celestial Device, so it doesn’t make sense to set such a formation that can be broken open with a Pure Yang Celestial Device!” Said Zhou Bao in a cold voice, “Maybe they’re trying to kill me at the moment I break open the formation!”


“Then what are you going to do?”


“Keep feeling it out!” Zhou Bao said, “This sword formation can’t be that simple. There should be other changes!”


“There will be no more big changes!” Green Spirit added, “I have just said, the sword skill that used to set this sword formation is very simple and crude. Therefore, the maximum power of this formation can’t be exerted at all!”


“Then let’s wait and see who is more anxious!” Zhou Bao sneered.


“Aren’t you in a hurry to get back?”


“This is a trap. Otherwise, how could they set this sword formation on my way? I suspect that the news of my father’s emergency is false. Hmph, how smart! Hardly had he arrived when he fainted. If he hadn’t fainted so quickly, how could he have fooled my spiritual mind?”


The thought that the messenger had fainted at the sight of him made him furious. He had not been fooled for a long time.


“Now that they want to play, I’ll play with them!” Zhou Bao thought bitterly. All of a sudden, a tremendous pressure came over him from behind, and he fiercely hit back with his cudgel without turning back.


“Bang!” A loud bang sounded like a thunder. Zhao Bao’s Golden-Scaled Cudgel was knocked of his hand due to this blow.


“What’s that?” The sudden accident shocked Zhou Bao. He used 50 percent of the force against this blow, but the force of the counterattack was three to four times stronger, which caught him off guard and caused his Golden-Scaled Cudgel to be knocked out of his hand. Zhou Bao’s right hand was numb due to the powerful force, trembling slightly, and he unconsciously moved forward.


It seemed that he had lost his chance.


The tremendous pressure stretched from behind him to the top of his head, pressing on him rapidly just like Mount Tai cras.h.i.+ng an egg.


In haste, Zhou Bao launched the Golden Flame Mirror over his head. Red gold abruptly flashed in the Golden Flame Mirror, and then the Golden Flame Mirror emitted a gold light which shone stubbornly above his head.


“Puff!”


With the shot of the golden light, the invisible pressure was pressed down, and the two crashed into each other. Since the Golden Flame Mirror was connected with Zhou Bao’s spirit, he felt a tremendous force upon him at the first moment. Then he stumbled and fell forward.


He was greeted with countless fierce Sword Qi.


The Sword Qi that could not hurt Zhou Bao just now, was 10 times fiercer than before, and it gathered into a streak of extremely sharp Sword Qi, straight to Zhou Bao’s throat.


“d.a.m.n it!” Zhou Bao gave a vicious scolding in his heart. Then he lifted his finger, and a streak of black and red Sword Qi flashed out.


It was the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword!


It was neither the Extreme Yang Heavenly Sword nor the Extreme Yin Heavenly Sword, but the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword that was truly the integration of Yin and Yang.


The black and red Sword Qi shot out and struck hard with the Sword Qi that was about to stab Zhou Bao.


“Puff!”


The coming Sword Qi was completely disintegrated by the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword Qi. The black and red Sword Qi was like a long white rainbow, breaking the whole sword formation. The vast world was suddenly lit up, and the real world, covered in endless whiteness, was revealed at this moment.


The Supreme Swordplay, and all skills derived from one sword!


The so-called Sword Qi like a rainbow might be the effect of this blow.


“No!”


Obviously, the power of the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword was far beyond the expectation of the people who were in the dark. The Sword pierced the sky, and almost in a flash, it shook the root of the whole sword formation.


The men who set the formation were shocked and hurriedly tried their best to stabilize the formation.


“Hmph, it’s already showing a flaw. Do you still want to stabilize it?” The surrounding s.p.a.ce fluctuation couldn’t hide from Zhou Bao’s spiritual mind at all. Slightly raising his fingertips, he relaunched the Sword Qi of the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword. Just as he was about to strike again to thoroughly break the mysterious formation, he felt a heavy pressure above his head.


A pang of immense pressure had completely suppressed his Golden Flame Mirror, and went straight through the path between the Golden Flame Mirror and his spirit, damaging his spirit heavily.


“Uh!” With a low snort, Zhou Bao only felt his spirit agitated, as if he had been struck in the head by a huge stone.


The only thing that made him feel lucky, was that the three Green Lotuses in the Golden Flame Mirror had suddenly coalesced into a single one, and had stopped the pressure in front of his spirit. It was smashed to pieces in a moment but protected his spirit. Thus, although his spirit was badly hurt, its root was not hurt.


“A Pure Yang Celestial Device! d.a.m.n it, it’s a Pure Yang Celestial Device!”


Zhou Bao gave a strange cry. At this point, he was completely certain that the pressure behind him and over his head must come from a Pure Yang Celestial Device, otherwise, it would never break the protection of the Golden Flame Mirror. It was just a matter of a moment, but it was enough.


“Who on earth has so much hatred against me, to do this to me?”


The doubt flashed through his mind. As he moved, he lunged forward and withdrew the Golden Flame Mirror.


“Hiss”


With his lunging forward, Zhou Bao escaped the pressure of the unknown celestial device. Then he took a deep breath, and the Golden Flame Mirror turned into a ball of gold light, shooting out of between his eyebrows and nouris.h.i.+ng his damaged spirit.


Since the blow failed, the pressure rose again.


Zhou Bao suddenly lifted his hands, and simultaneously stretched out his ten fingers. Then 10 streaks of black and red Sword Qi shot out behind him.


“Rub-a-dub, rub-a-dub…” There were 10 dull sounds. The 10 streaks of Sword Qi blocked the Pure Yang Celestial Device and tore up the formation, which allowed Zhou Bao to see the real appearance of that Pure Yang Celestial Device.


It was a gourd, a dark red gourd.


The dark red gourd was about 100 feet high, with an air of solemnity, and at this point, it came down on Zhou Bao mercilessly like a huge mountain. The 10 streaks of Sword Qi tore up the formation, but they did not damage the gourd, only slightly hindered its approach.


“Gee, this is…” Seeing the bell, Green Spirit suddenly screamed in a weird voice, “Did I see wrong? This thing is… crazy, it’s too crazy. How could… how could this thing come out? And how could it be driven?”


“You know it?” Zhou Bao moved quickly in the formation, trying to get rid of the huge pressure of the dark red gourd, but he did not succeed.


“No, I guess I was wrong. I was wrong!” Now Green Spirit appeared some incoherent. It seemed that he recognized the gourd, but he was not sure.


“Hey, what am I gonna do now?” Zhou Bao cried. He had intended to use the Golden Flame Mirror to resist, but when he thought of it, he clearly felt a strange wave from the Golden Flame Mirror, which showed him that the Golden Flame Mirror did not seem willing to go out against the dark red gourd again and it seemed to be afraid of the gourd.


The Golden Flame Mirror was a Pure Yang Celestial Device, possessing super intelligence. Although it had no spiritual intelligence, Zhou Bao could sense the meaning of this simple wave.


And this wave surprised Zhou Bao.


Nothing like this had ever happened since the Golden Flame Mirror was refined. As a Pure Yang Celestial Device, an extremely powerful Pure Yang Celestial Device, it did not fail when it was competing against the Octupole Exquisite PaG.o.da and the Invisible Dragon Rod which were all Pure Yang Celestial Devices that had been famous for a long time. Then why was it afraid of the red gourd?


“Grab it. You gotta get it!” At this moment, Green Spirit’s voice sounded in his mind again, a little hysterical. “Why is this thing here? Boy, you gotta get it. Otherwise, when others understand its mystery, you are dead. No one can save you, you’re dead. Even if you have become an Individual Immortal, a Genuine Immortal, even a humpan Immortal, you’re dead!”


“Is that so exaggerated?” Zhou Bao was suspicious and perplexed. “Grab it? How? d.a.m.n it, I’m stuck in their formation now!”


“Whatever you do, you must get it!” Green Spirit shouted. His voice was quieter than a moment ago. It seemed that his excitement had gradually subsided.


At this point Zhou Bao came to a critical juncture. Without the obstruction of the Golden Flame Mirror, the red gourd, exuding enormous pressure, rushed at him.


Now, the Golden-Scaled Cudgel was not available, and the Three Realms Division could not be used, and the Golden Flame Mirror did not work well. For a moment, Zhou Bao was in a dilemma.


The red gourd was carrying a mighty power against him and Zhou Bao was forced to retreat. After which, with fire flicking in his hand, a long whip, made of flame, appeared at some point.


The long whip, like a serpent, danced around him, and scattered all the coming Sword Qi around. Meanwhile, he launched the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Gang to the extreme and nine dragons began circling around him, making threatening gestures. Although Zhou Bao had been retreating, temporarily, the Sword Qi in the sword formation could not hurt him.


The standoff began.


Now, the only thing that could threaten Zhou Bao was the little red gourd.


Fortunately, Zhou Bao escaped with all his heart, Although he could not get out of the sword formation, the red gourd could not catch up with him, and was getting further and further away from him.


It had no choice.


This kind of magic weapon that’s used to smash people, should attack people by surprise, and should smash people to death with one blow. In case the people dodged, it was not so easy to attack again. After all, people in this world were not stupid and no one would stand and wait to be smashed.


This celestial device was so powerful that even the Golden Flame Mirror wanted to avoid it. It was absolutely a Pure Yang Celestial Device. It would take a lot of energy to drive such a Pure Yang Celestial Device. Even to manipulate the Golden Flame Mirror that was forged by Zhou Bao, he had to be focused, let alone guard against the red gourd, which was a rare treasure from the antiquity times. The manipulator didn’t fully understand its uses, and only thought that it could hit people. They could narrowly use it, but after manipulating it for such a long time, its manipulator felt that it became more and more difficult.


Then the red gourd gradually slowed down and finally stopped in the middle of the vast formation.


“I didn’t expect Zhou Bao to be so powerful that he could avoid the attack in this formation, ignoring the Sword Qi!”


In the middle of the vast formation, an old man in sackcloth appeared. As he waved, the red gourd, which was 100 feet high, became smaller and smaller. At last, it shrunk to about the size of a palm, and then he hung it around his waist.


The old man in sackcloth was a little pale. This was because it had taken a lot of effort to manipulate the gourd. “There’s no way. Open the sword formation!”


Open the sword formation!


That meant they were going to use the final killing movement.


“I have advised you to open the sword formation, but you didn’t listen to me until now. What a waste of time!” Said a voice somewhat discontented. However, with “open the sword formation”, a hollow replaced the original vast world.


“Gee, the sword formation is opened!” Zhou Bao looked up at the white fog that was dissipating at breakneck speed, and his expression slightly changed.


Just in one breath of time, the vast hollow appeared around Zhou Bao.


“Nine Level Eight experts?”


When the white fog dissipated, Zhou Bao was really surprised. Why?


It was because he found himself surrounded by Nine Level Eight experts. They were standing in a Nine Palace, each with a Flying Sword hanging in front, and one old man in sackcloth had a dark red gourd on his waist. But the gourd was not as big as it was before, just the size of a palm.


“Hehe, you finally show up!” Zhou Bao gave them a sneer. With golden light flas.h.i.+ng continuously behind his head, he started the Golden Flame Mirror again. “You want to kill me here. Who the h.e.l.l are you?”


”You don’t need to know who we are. Anyway, you’re dead today!” The one speaking was the old man in sackcloth.


Zhou Bao just sneered, but he was becoming more alert in his heart, because he did not see the black-clothed man who had attacked him from the start, and that man who had the power of hollow travel was the most troublesome.


“Give it up. You’re in the Sumeru Sword Formation. No matter how powerful your spiritual mind is, you can’t find him!” said the old man in sackcloth with a grim smile, as if he knew what Zhou Bao was looking for.


“The Sumeru Sword Formation? It sounds pretty powerful, but I have already experienced it. It’s not that powerful!”


“Hmph, then let us show you its real power!” Then the old man in sackcloth knocked at the Flying Sword in front of him.


“Clang!” That Flying Sword made a clear sound. When Zhou Bao heard this, his look sharply changed. He sprang to his feet, and a sharp sword went through his thighs, soundless and stirless. Then the other man, who was standing on the other side, also knocked at the Flying Sword in front of him and another clear sound rang.


Zhou Bao rolled a somersault in the air, a large amount of blood spurting out.


As the nine people knocked at the Flying Sword in front of them successively, Zhou Bao was stabbed nine times in a row, but he didn’t even know how it happened.


If his spiritual mind had not been too sensitive, which allowed him to avoid being stabbed in a vital spot at the most critical moment, he might have died now. But he was still bleeding, unable to stop the invisible and silent Sword Qi.


“Haha, Zhou Bao, stop making pointless struggles! You’re awesome, but you’re in a formation where you can’t escape!” The old man in sackcloth’s cold laughter sounded in the ears of Zhou Bao. At the same time, in the dark hollow, a steak of Sword Qi vanished and a killing intent suddenly appeared.


“Sh*t!” Zhou Bao cursed with a weird voice, another pool of blood spurting out. After which, a black figure flashed and then vanished.


It was the black-clothed man whom he had been worried about.


Zhou Bao did not completely avoid this sword. On his ribs, there was a deep wound, down to the bone.


“d.a.m.n you!” In spite of his injury, Zhou Bao stretched out all his fingers and 10 streaks of black and red Sword Qi shot out again, directly to the nine people.


The Sword Qi, went directly through the bodies of the nine people, and tore 10 holes in the formation. But the holes flickered and disappeared, and the hollow returned to peace, once more after shaking. When the Sword Qi pa.s.sed through the nine people, it did not do any harm to them at all, as if it had pa.s.sed through nine shadows.


“It’s the Sumeru Sword Formation. You think what you see is really where we are?”


“Clang!” There was another sword sound.


Zhou Bao done a somersault with his face distorted, gritted his teeth and said, “I don’t even want to know where you are!”


He violently shook his robe sleeves and the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword Qi which had been condensed into a beam, turned into strips of Sword Qi that was as fine as ox hair under the influence of the Dragon Flying Technique, spreading out in all directions, and enveloped the whole formation.


“Haha, awesome! I can’t believe you have such a special technique which is so destructive!”


The triumphant voice came again, sounding rather harsh.


“This is magic matrix!” Green Spirit said in his mind, “Everything you see is unreal. You think your Sword Qi is in all directions, but it’s not!”


“I see!” Zhou Bao’s eyes flashed with a fierce light. The long flame whip that was transformed from the Goat-shaped Dragon, one of the Nine Forms of Real Dragon, wrapped him up completely. Then, before his Gang Qi had been fully launched, along with the Poison Cold s.h.i.+eld, in the blink of an eye, there were already three defenses in his body.


At this moment, the sword rang again.


Clang…


The Sword Qi like wind, flashed across Zhou Bao’s body, and as just now, it almost ignored his three layers of defenses, directly stabbing into his heart.


Having suffered a few losses, Zhou Bao had been prepared to defend himself against such powerful Sword Qi, which appeared soundlessly in the sword formation. Once again the Sword Qi broke his defenses, but it did not hurt him. Because when it broke the defenses, Zhou Bao launched a wisp of exceptional Sword Qi to hit it, and eliminated it.


“Boy, stop playing. Otherwise, they’ll be more familiar with the formation. Then once they launch one tenth of the sword formation’s power of the sword, instantly sending out 81 streaks of Sword Qi to attack you, you’re dead!” Green Spirit’s voice sounded at this point, full of worry. “Get rid of them quickly before they completely master this formation!”


“Get rid of them? How? It’s not easy!” Cried Zhou Bao peevishly.


“The sword formation isn’t complete. These guys may have practiced it before, but it’s the first time they’ve used it against someone, so they’re not used to it. But if they are familiar with your body movements, they can at least start a killing movement with their cultivation!”


“Then what should I do now?” Zhou Bao anxiously asked.


He could hide from the Sword Qi, but if there were 81 streaks of Sword Qi all at once, just like what Green Spirit said, he could never escape.


“Don’t underestimate yourself! I’ve heard of the Sumeru Sword Formation before. The Flying Swords that they’re using are of good quality, but they don’t meet the minimum requirements of the sword formation. You will be able to shake the foundation of this formation with the Great Fusion Technic and the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword, and then you can attack it with all your might!”


“Got it!” Zhou Bao certainly nodded. Suddenly, he rolled his body that has been evading. In his tendons and meridians, the black flame-shaped Internal Qi was flowing rapidly, and the wound, which caused by the Sword Qi, began healing quickly.


“No, he’s gonna put up a desperate fight!” The men who set this formation were all Level Eight experts whose discernment was extremely good. They were startled to see the changes in Zhou Bao’s body, and they almost simultaneously struck the Flying Sword in front of them.


“I’m not afraid of you!” Zhou Bao snapped. Having mastered the rules of the Sword Qi, he launched nine streaks of exceptional Sword Qi, and materialized the piercing Sword Qi that appeared out of nowhere. Then, in his Gang Qi, a golden light came out and a gold flame rose from the Gang Qi.


The s.p.a.ce was boiling.


“Zi!” The gold flame violently tore a hole in the formation. Almost at the same time, a light flashed between Zhou Bao’s eyebrows and a streak of black and red Sword Qi shot out of between his eyebrows, going straight up into the sky along the s.p.a.ce that had been torn open by the gold flame.


It was the Great Fusion Technic!


Along with the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword!


The two great special techniques broke open the Sumeru Sword Formation jointly, fiercely tearing a slit in the sword formation. Then Zhou Bao jumped out of the slit like a loach.


Everything happened so quickly that they had no time to react. The nine experts who set the sword formation almost instantaneously struck the Flying Sword in front of them.


“Clang…”


This time the sound of Flying Swords was very crisp, and in the blink of an eye, 81 streaks of Sword Qi appeared out of nowhere and twisted together. However, the Sword Qi got nothing.


Zhou Bao was gone!


In the formation, the Flying Swords in front of the nine experts turned into numerous pieces in an instant, shooting around. Subsequently, the sword formation broke.


“It was a close one! It was a close one!” Out of the sword formation, Zhou Bao felt his back cold, because the 81 streaks of Sword Qi had broken his Gang Qi. Fortunately, he was out of the sword formation. If he had stayed in the sword formation, he might have been crushed by the Sword Qi, just as Green Spirit said.
