Chapter 571: The Devil Fetus (I)

Zhou Bao felt shocked. He had indeed achieved the Individual Immortal Karma Rank and reached the Mysterious Realm. However, even the lord of the Divine Wind Palace, Yu Taixu, could not see through his cultivation. Who the h.e.l.l was this man? Unexpectedly, he figured out his cultivation in one fell swoop. It turned out that he had got quite a discerning eye.


Nevertheless, Zhou Bao knew that it was not the proper time to admire the other’s discernment. While watching the white-gray cloth bag covering his head, he grinned and took out his Infinite Poison Banner.


After being refined by the venom of the s.p.a.ce-corroding Sects, the Infinite Poison Banner had almost been transformed into an immaterial substance. It looked like a wisp of cool breeze now.


But all things would disappear when they met this wisp of cool breeze.


The white-gray cloth bag was a good Pure Yang Celestial Device which contained the Dharma and debris of s.p.a.ce and time. Whoever was enveloped by it would feel like they were being trapped in a s.p.a.ce-time puzzle which was quite difficult to get out of.


Nonetheless, this bag encountered its nemesis this time. Originally, Zhou Bao’s Infinite Poison Banner was the nemesis of all kinds of Laws of s.p.a.ce. After absorbing the venom of the s.p.a.ce-corroding Sects, it became much more virulent. Therefore, as it unfolded, it left no chance for the cloth bag to fight back.


Sizzle! As the bag met the banner, it made a noise. The banner directly corroded the bag and left a big hole in it. But that’s not all; the poison gas of the banner turned into wisps of cyan smoke that directly went deep into the bag.


A burst of sizzling rang out along where the bag was corroded. Before the owner of the bag could react, half of the bag had already been corroded by the poison gas. All the spiritual qi, Dharma of s.p.a.ce and time within flew into the void. Within a few seconds, a Pure Yang Celestial Device was destroyed.


“Oh, my Innate Precious Bag! You little brat! That’s my treasure!” Obviously, the owner of the bag didn’t know what was going on for a moment. But by the time he realized that something was wrong, his Innate Precious Bag had started to collapse. When he knew that the s.p.a.ce in the bag had been broken and as there was no way to fix it, he exclaimed angrily all at once.


His shout exposed his position. Zhou Bao did no more waste moves but instead, directly corroded the s.p.a.ce that the bag owner was hidden in with his Infinite Poison Banner.


Sizzle! Sizzle!


“What celestial device is it? Why does it so insidious?!”


The bag owner had never expected that Zhou Bao’s Infinite Poison Banner was so powerful and lethal. By the time he tried to fight back, it was just too late. The cyan smoke had already turned into a gust of wind which enveloped around his whole body. Even if he just moved one of his fingers, he would inevitably touch the cyan smoke. His instincts and spiritual mind told him clearly that he should never ever touch this d.a.m.n smoke, otherwise, he would die in the same way as his Innate Precious Bag.


“Who are you? Why are you in the Infinite Star Sea? Why did you attack me?” Zhou Bao had already seen the man clearly. It turned out to be a short and stout Taoist who was not quite as tall as his chest but was three to four times bigger than him. His body was very comical just like a large-sized balloon.


“Who are you? There’s no such young man like you in the Alliance of 13 Realms. Obviously, you’re somebody since you have such an odd celestial device. Could it be that you’re not a member of the Alliance of 13 Realms? That’s interesting. I can’t believe that the news of the birth of the Devil Fetus has already been leaked to the place outside of the Alliance of 13 Realms!”


Zhou Bao frowned his eyebrows because he couldn’t understand most of the words that the guy had said. However, he had obtained some news from his words; the guy must be a Taoist who came from the Alliance of 13 Realms and, there was a Devil Fetus that was born near the Infinite Star Sea. There couldn’t be such a coincidence, could it?


“Humph, certainly, I’m not from the Alliance of 13 Realms! I just came here by accident and I know nothing about the Alliance of 13 Realms nor the birth of Devil Fetus. Hey, tell me more about them. Don’t try to hide anything from me. I’ll spare your life if I’m satisfied with your explanations. Otherwise, you’ll end up in the same way as your Innate Precious Bag!” Zhou Bao said ferociously.


The stocky Taoist glanced at Zhou Bao and sighed helplessly. He said, “How unlucky I am! I just wanted to take this opportunity—the birth of the Devil Fetus, to gain some benefits in the Infinite Star Sea, but I never thought that I’ll lose my life here too. Hey, will you let me go if I tell you everything I know?”


“Of course I will. I’m always a man of my words. I can’t help it if you don’t believe me. But if you lie to me, don’t blame me for being cruel.”


“I don’t need to deceive you since the thing you’re asking about is no secret!” The stocky Taoist said helplessly. He continued, “My Dharma name is Tian Zhao. I’m the chief of the Yuqing Temple in the Small Spirit Realm. The Small Spirit Realm is a member of the Alliance of 13 Realms and the latter is made up of the 13 most powerful macro worlds in the Purple Scorpion Sea Area!”


“The Purple Scorpion Sea Area?” Zhou Bao was somewhat shocked. After hearing Taoist Tian Zhao’s words, he seemed to see a door that he had never thought of before opening in front of him.


“So what about the birth of the Devil Fetus?”


“There’s a Primordial Demon that had been sealed in the Infinite Star Sea. It’s one of the 108 Primordial Demons that had been sealed by the mighties in primitive times and, it cannot break the seal easily. However, every 10,000 years, it will give birth to a Devil Fetus. If anyone can obtain the Devil Fetus and successfully refine it, it will be of great help to them!” Taoist Tian Zhao told Zhou Bao the details honestly. He added, “Since the Purple Scorpion Sea Area is closest to the Infinite Star Sea, many people had come here!”


“That is to say, in addition to the Alliance of 13 Realms, there are also people from other Star Areas here?”


“Sure. The Milky Way Realm will certainly send someone here!” Speaking of this, Taoist Tian Zhao glanced at Zhou Bao and added, “The Milky Way Star Area is 10 times larger than the Purple Scorpion Sea Area, but there is only one macro world—the Milky Way Realm. Hey little brother, it seems that you’re not from the Milky Way Realm either!”


“Yeah, I’m not from the Milky Way Realm. Is there something wrong with that?”


“No, of course not!” Taoist Tian Zhao shook his head repeatedly and added, “That will be the best. If I were you, I would act secretly and not interfere in the battle between the Milky Way Realm and the Alliance of 13 Realms. The Milky Way Realm has always wanted to annex the Alliance of 13 Realms. However, for tens of thousands of years, the 13 realms protected themselves by allying with each other. So, Milky Way Ancestor cannot gain benefits from any realm. In recent years, the conflict between the two sides has become more and more fierce. I’m guessing there will be a war soon. Little brother, you’d better not get involved in it!”


Within a few words, Zhou Bao’s address was changed from “little brat” to “little brother” in the mouth of Taoist Tian Zhao. Zhou Bao burst into laughter as he saw Tian Zhao’s earnest expression.


“Of course I’m not going to meddle in the affairs of either Star Area. Aside from these two Star Areas, who else is likely to come here?


“That’s all. I guess there are only these two Star Areas!” Taoist Tian Zhao shook his head repeatedly. Although it was recorded in various secret collections that there were a.s.sorted worlds, expert, and mysteries in the void, since antiquity times, neither the Purple Scorpion Sea Area nor the Milky Way Star Area had discovered the fifteenth macro world. Except for the Alliance of 13 Realms, there was only the Milky Way Realm. Occasionally, though, there were some mysterious experts coming from the other world. After checking up on them, people in these two Star Areas found that they all came here by chance. They had gotten involved in the s.p.a.ce-time torrent and thus would come to these two Star Areas by mistake. These hapless guys were of little use, except to prove that the records in antiquity times were correct. Therefore, Taoist Tian Zhao gathered that Zhou Bao was the same as those unlucky guys who were caught up in the s.p.a.ce-time torrent and brought into the Infinite Star Sea.


“So, does this mean you have come to the Infinite Star Sea for the birth of the Devil Fetus?”


“Hey hey, that’s not the case!” Taoist Tian Zhao shook his head repeatedly after he had heard Zhou Bao’s question. He added, “I have neither time nor the ability to s.n.a.t.c.h that Devil Fetus. I’m merely a Three-tribulation True Immortal. Although I’m somebody in the Small Spirit Realm, I’m just n.o.body in the Alliance of 13 Realms and the Milky Way Realm. How could such a fabulous thing fall into my hands? I’m just here for a windfall!” He looked at Zhou Bao with an expression that Zhou Bao should know what he was thinking about.


Zhou Bao did understand him. Thinking of this guy covered him with his cloth bag when he saw him, Zhou Bao knew that he must be very familiar with killing others and robbing them of their treasures. Obviously, he had done such things many times. Zhou Bao understood that his so-called windfall was the treasures he was going to obtain through killing and looting in the chaos of the Infinite Star Sea.


Looting would definitely arise in the process of the birth of the Devil Fetus. In fact, such a fabulous thing would only fall into the hands of those geniuses except that you had unparalleled luck. The other people who had come to the Infinite Star Sea were just treated as cannon fodder. This was made known to all. But every time something like this happened, it was inevitable that countless people would go after it one after another. However, not all of them had the idea of leaving things to chance. A lot of people harbored the same idea as Taoist Tian Zhao did. They didn’t aim at the Devil Fetus but at other pract.i.tioners.


It should be noted that a pract.i.tioner whose cultivation had reached a certain level would carry one or two celestial devices of Law of s.p.a.ce with them, even if they hadn’t cultivated their Self-world successfully. They would carry all their valuables with them. Once you killed one pract.i.tioner, you would get everything he had. Such a good thing was certainly worth doing.


Therefore, at this moment, the entire Infinite Star Sea would become a real killing field. The Alliance of 13 Realms was made of 13 macro worlds with numerous sects of all scale. However, the Milky Way Realm was bigger than the 13 macro worlds added up together. Similarly, this realm had a forest of sects and gangs. Those who had achieved the Karmic Rank of Individual Immortal would certainly come to join in the fun!


Only those with a cultivation equal to, or greater than that of the Individual Immortals were qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the fight. In both the Alliance of 13 Realms and the Milky Way Realm, anyone who left their world before they had achieved Individual Immortal Karma Rank would be treated as a fool. Only small sects that had neither strength nor background would do such a thing.


Zhou Bao gave a wry smile as he thought about this. Quite a few disciples in the five biggest sects who had not reached the Mysterious Realm joined the trip to the Infinite Star Sea last time. He felt deeply ashamed about this.
