Chapter 575: The Exposure
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Zhou Bao’s eyes were sharper than that of any eagle’s. He could have had a panoramic view of the entire planet if there were not so many buildings.
There were many tall buildings on this trade star. Common people could seldom see the immortals inside the buildings, but Zhou Bao had felt at least ten spiritual minds going through his body within such a short time. Those guys were all Individual Immortals and above. Knowing that Zhou Bao was only a Level Nine expert, none of them showed any interest, all except for two.
After all, the c.u.mulus Star was full of common people. A Level Nine expert had the ability to bring great destruction to this satellite if desired.
A mysterious Level Nine expert like Zhou Bao would have been carefully examined on other planets. However, on a trade planet like this, where so many different power groups collaborated with one another, such a practice was quite unlikely. Even the True Spirit Sect only acted as a supervisor without any absolute authority. On the c.u.mulus Star, thousands of immortals and common people arrived through Transmitting Formation every day. They came from different power groups and had different backgrounds. Therefore, it would violate the rules here if someone was questioned based solely on the merit that he or she was a stranger.
They would only pay more attention to Zhou Bao, a common mortal with strong power. But so long as he behaved himself and didn’t break what few rules existed, no one would realistically care about him.
“This young man looks unfamiliar. He has reached Level Nine at such a young age. He is probably the young master of a powerful group and has some special background.”
In a nearby tall building, two divine thoughts communicated, apparently surprised by the power Zhou Bao achieved at such a young age.
“There’s nothing to be surprised at. Remember, the Devil Fetus is about to be born. That thing has attracted the attention from the two areas, 14 macro worlds and countless micro worlds. It is said that the young masters of several macro worlds are all staring at the Devil Fetus. Like always, the big masters want to train their next generations through this opportunity. Many hidden young masters have shown up. We’d better be careful not to offend them, lest we find ourselves in trouble.”
“You’re right. We’d better continue the closed-door training. Having conflicts with those young masters is just like playing with fire.”
After the communication, the two divine thoughts seemed to reach an agreement and then disappeared.
Zhou Bao could have heard the communication between the two divine thoughts if he wanted. However, he was not interested in it and didn’t care about the two spiritual minds on him. What he cared about was the silver carriage not far away behind him.
Yes, the silver carriage.
It was a luxuriant carriage pulled by eight tall steeds. A husky fellow, who was over 30 feet tall, oversaw the others even though he was sitting on the shaft. He gave off an oppressive feeling, like that of a mountain.
“A top Individual Immortal served only as a driver!” Zhou Bao was chocked by the cultivation of this big fellow. He paid special attention to this carriage not because the silver carriage itself was a Highest Heaven Celestial Device, nor that the driver was very powerful, but because of a very familiar spirit inside the carriage.
They were the Great Dark Lord Du of the Dark Sect and Yukun Buddha of the Great Wheel Temple in the Snow Mountain.
Zhou Bao could feel their weak breath through the carriage.
“Interesting! They were still alive and were captured!”
They were indeed captured. Zhou Bao wouldn’t believe that they were the masters of this carriage or that they were friends of its owner. Otherwise, they would not have been confined within the carriage.
All the Highest Heaven Celestial Devices had their Highest Heaven s.p.a.ces. This silver carriage looked luxurious, but Zhou Bao was sure that it was only a low-grade one because its Highest Heaven s.p.a.ce was not complete. He knew that he could break the carriage with just one fist and rescue Great Dark Lord Du and Yukun Buddha.
But the Infinite Star Sea was not his territory. If he made a move now he would definitely cause chaos and catch the attention of some powerful figures. Therefore, Zhou Bao decided to take no actions for the moment and follow the carriage to its destination first.
After making the plan, Zhou Bao returned, went inside a store selling celestial devices and looked around.
The c.u.mulus Star was a trade center and the shopkeepers also had powerful connections. There could be no doubt about the qualities of the celestial devices in the shops.
However, most of them were only low-grade Psychic Celestial Devices or Mysterious Celestial Devices. Although people could not see Pure Yang Celestial Devices in the market, Zhou Bao could still feel them in this shop. That was so said, Pure Yang Celestial Devices could be bought in shops here, which was unbelievable in the Seven-deity Regions.
In the Seven-deity Regions, Pure Yang Celestial Devices, which were believed to bring good luck, were hidden by the powerful houses. None of the houses would sell them for some spiritual stones, except Zhou Bao.
However, with a second thought, Zhou Bao understood that he was willing to sell the Pure Yang Celestial Devices only because they were robbed from the Sea Area, which was far more powerful than his Seven-deity Regions. Maybe in the Sea Area, Pure Yang Celestial Devices could also be sold as goods, but this should not be his concern at the moment.
The silver carriage moved toward a residence with tall buildings. Zhou Bao frowned a little bit because he could feel more than ten strong spirits from the ordinary house. The owners of the spirits were all Genuine Immortals. Some of them were in the Venerable Realms, among which there were two Lord of Heavens.
“My Goodness! What’s the background of this carriage and who are the powerful people living inside?” Feeling the strong spirits, Zhou Bao turned on his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill to hide his breath and then sneaked in.
“Law of s.p.a.ce! There’s a Law of s.p.a.ce here!” Once inside, Zhou Bao observed carefully and discovered a very familiar formation — magic matrix of the Dust Formation.
“This will be interesting! Other formations would probably be very troublesome for me, but since it is the Dust Formation… hehe!” Zhou Bao thought and laughed secretly. He went through the formation without any difficulty and ran directly toward the center of the house.
Across the formation, there was a wide manor. The silver carriage was right in front of the manor, but with no one inside.
Zhou Bao no longer cared about the carriage. He went into the manor without any hesitation.
The Great Dark Lord Du and Yukun Buddha were held in a quiet room.
There wasn’t any rope around their bodies, but it was obvious that they were chained. They were kept in an unguarded quiet room because they could not practice any power and were as weak as common people.
“Respected Elders, I need to see my uncle now. There’s something very important!” Zhou Bao heard these words just as he was hesitating about rescuing the two.
“My young master, the First Master is having closed-door training. He had ordered not to be disturbed by anyone!”
“I have important things to report. You are the ones to blame if the message is delayed!” The young master raised his voice after being rejected and said, “Quick! Inform the First Master immediately, or I’ll kill you both!”
“He is just a Level Eight. How dare he boast to kill the two Individual Immortals! Only I can do such things!” Zhou Bao snickered, thinking that such bold but cute guys were everywhere.
However, to his surprise, those two Individual Immortals did not get angry at all. They, instead, looked very embarra.s.sed.
“Young master, it’s not that we want to stop you, but the First Master has ordered so. As you know, he found a Mysterious Object on the c.u.mulus Star and is studying it in closed-door training. If someone disturbs him at such a moment——!”
“Am I such an unreasonable man?” The young master’s face darkened and his eyes sharpened. “I know closed-door training is an extremely important thing for my uncle, but I have something more important. Do you think I’m just being reckless?”
“I dare not!”
“Then inform my uncle right away. You’re just two Individual Immortals. If the message is delayed, you cannot take the responsibility.”
“Really? How important is it?” A low and heavy voice came just as the young master finished.
“First Master!”
“Uncle!”
Hearing the voice, all three changed their countenance. The two Individual Immortals kneeled down immediately, and the young master bowed respectfully.
“Qing Chan, there’s no strangers. Say what you want. What have you discovered? Is it really more important than my closed-door training?” The voice was soft, but powerful and authoritative. The young master shuddered, but steeled his nerves at the thought of his discovery and said, “Uncle, I found the Transmitting Formation to the Heaven Realm!”
“What?” With a slight swing of the air, a slim figure suddenly appeared in front of the young master and lift him up by the collar, saying “What did you say? Say it again!”
“Uncle, I found the Transmitting Formation to the Heaven Realm!” the young master said, word by word, looking at his uncle.
