Chapter 748: The Strange Baby
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
That d.a.m.n strange baby!
Zhou Bao didn’t know how many times he swore thinking about that baby, but he had no way of dealing with it.
He did not know whether the baby was telling the truth about losing his memory, but he could not get a shred of information from him about his origin. Just like the Child-endowing Buddha, he kept his mouth shut.
Either he was ashamed of his origin, or he really had forgotten!
After negotiating for a long time with no clear conclusion, Zhou Bao stopped asking about the origin of this thing and stopped counting on that fairy weapon. He started to ask about the situation in this Star Area.
“You know this is the Easternmost Land, is there anything to be gained here?”
“The Easternmost Land is the Duke of the East’s private area. All of the good stuff is in his Palace of the East and secondary palace. It’s been such a long time that even if there is good stuff, you won’t be able to get hold of it!” the baby said. “This Star Area is huge, about the same as other places in the Void Universe. Here the Law of s.p.a.ce is very strict. Even if you were proficient in the Great Way of Heavens and Realms, you couldn’t just do as you please here. So the Palace of the East built many Transmitting Formations in the Easternmost Land, which were used especially for communication between all places in all Star Areas. I remember there being one near here!”
“So, you mean that the strict Law of s.p.a.ce is exactly the same everywhere else?
“Yes, at least in antiquity!” The baby thought for a moment. “By the way, boy, why did you come to the Easternmost Land? Aren’t you from the Heaven Realm World?”
“I came to walk around, figure out my fist intent, and to work on my cultivation!” Zhou Bao intended to be clear about his purpose. “I unintentionally refined my simulated universe fist intent. But my punching skill has not changed, so I came to this Void Universe to walk around and find some inspiration to try to advance.”
“What simulated universe are you talking about?” The baby was startled by what Zhou Bao had said. He was just casually enquiring and had found out about this thing. “Your fist intent is in a simulated universe! Quick, let me see, let me see!”
“Why should I?”
“I might be able to help you!” the baby said. “I may only be a device spirit, but before, I traveled around the entire Void Universe. Also, I was born in the Primordial Origin period and have a deep understanding of the essence of this universe. I could certainly help you!”
“Didn’t you say you lost your memory?”
“I have lost some memories, but I remember things that might help you, okay?”
“G.o.d d.a.m.n it!” Zhou Bao nearly punched it. “Okay then, if you want to look then have a look. But if you don’t give me any suggestions, then I’ll seal you back up and you won’t see the light of day any time soon!”
This was not an empty threat. Zhou Bao had the Supreme Fairy Weapon Black Pearl on him, which had the Pool of Thunder Tribulation. It would be no problem to inhibit this Heavenly Fairy Weapon.
While speaking, Zhou Bao launched his fist intent. Immediately, a vast, boundless spirit was dispersed from him. The baby was stunned to find it had come out of the shadow of the gourd into an empty part of the universe. This part of the universe was indeed vast and open, but the things inside it were tiny. In the distance, a small galaxy could be seen s.h.i.+ning in the darkness, as well as some starlights. Everywhere else was just s.p.a.ce, an endless void.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
A tiny pulse of murderous intent flashed through Zhou Bao’s body, and his expression changed. Feeling a slight chill flash through his fist intent he shuddered, and the slight chill dispersed. The baby’s Original Spirit returned to the top of the red gourd.
“Darling, darling, it’s so terrible! You can’t imagine how lucky you are that you actually managed to refine this fist intent. The things inside it might not be so good and has not changed much, but the universe is the essence of your fist intent. My boy, I think you don’t want to spend your entire life replenis.h.i.+ng your fist intent. Only if you get to a permanent phase will it be possible!”
“I am not planning on replenis.h.i.+ng my fist intent!” Zhou Bao laughed mischievously. “My fist intent might not be the best, but in this era, it is enough to protect my life. The only thing I want now is for my punching skill to change so that I can slowly improve my fist intent, which can’t be difficult!”
“It’s not difficult!” The baby thought for a moment. “If you just want to walk around in the Void Universe, look around more, and comprehend the true essence of the universe, then it won’t be difficult. But I have seen the simulated universe for your fist intent. It doesn’t seem to be a Void Universe at all, in some places it seems to be slightly different.”
He laughed. “If I am too young to comprehend my fist intent, then how could I know how the Void Universe looks? The galaxies and vast planets inside are things I added after entering the hollow!” Zhou Bao laughed to divert attention from the matter, but it was clear the baby thought this way. “You are clearly brave, having dared to understand this fist intent when you were so young, and you also have the Zhuyan bloodline, as well as the Icy Divine Light of the Frost Giant. You have practiced your Extreme Realm of Force and 3,000 Great Ways, in addition to your crus.h.i.+ng vacuum. Haha, it’s so interesting, I really want to see if you can use the crus.h.i.+ng vacuum properly!”
“But you need such a strong cultivation for the crus.h.i.+ng vacuum!”
“A strong cultivation?” The baby laughed. “Right now you are only a Human Immortal. You need to reach the peak of Earthly Immortal to really comprehend the Extreme Realm of Force and crus.h.i.+ng vacuum. To take this step, you need to rise to the level of a Celestial Immortal. Did you know that Celestial Immortals are of the Primordial Origin? They are so rare!”
“What about the Seven Wonderful Techniques? I’m familiar with those, right?”
“The Seven Wonderful Techniques?” The baby looked stunned at Zhou Bao. Looking him up and down and sizing him up, he suddenly asked, “How many of the Seven Wonderful Techniques do you know?”
“Five?”
“Five? Which five?” the baby jumped up and shouted in excitement.
“The Heavenly Jade Technique, Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, Immortal Body Technique, Dharma Power-restoring Skill and the Red Scorpion Concentration Skill.”
“No wonder you can condense the Three Flowers above the Head! And no wonder you chose the Extreme Realm of Force! The Vacuum-shattering Way is actually something you can consistently rely on!”
“Do you also know the Seven Wonderful Techniques?”
“What the h.e.l.l do I know? I’m a device spirit, I can’t practice!” the baby said moodily. “Anyway, these Seven Wonderful Techniques are some of the strongest Divine Senses of Primordial Origin. Did you think it was something special? Everyone can use it!” The baby paused. “So have you already condensed your Tree of the Seven Wonders?”
“My what?”
“Your Tree of the Seven Wonders! You know five of the Seven Wonderful Techniques, and you have a Human Immortal cultivation. You are qualified to concentrate your Tree of Seven Wonders, aren’t you?”
“You know quite a lot! There seems to be a strange sapling growing in my Dantian. It doesn’t seem to have a great effect on my Three Flowers above the Head. I have no clue how to use it!”
“That’s how it is with the Seven Wonderful Techniques, you don’t need to know how to use them!” the baby said. You can’t use it until you have fully learned all of them. Right now you only have two left, but they are not easy to find!”
“Do you know where I can find them?”
The baby shook its head. “I don’t know. In any case, they’re not in the Easternmost Land. The Duke of the East was beaten up by someone who knew the Seven Wonderful Techniques, so all the guys who knew them were banished from the Easternmost Land.”
“Unbelievable!”
“In remote antiquity, all the deities were constantly fighting. The innumerable Divine Tribes were engaged in countless battles of all sizes. Haha, so interesting, right?”
“You even know so much about the ancient deities. Being born in the Primordial Origin, it seems you are very intelligent.”
“Little baby, I think you are quite smart! That’s not going to get me to tell you about my origin. I can’t tell you, I have forgotten!”
Zhou Bao grinned. “Well, you know the story about how I came to the Easternmost Land. Do you have any advice?”
“Keep going. You need to replenish your fist intent, it won’t do you any harm. The Law of s.p.a.ce is rigid in the Easternmost Land, but everything else is no different from the Void Universe. I know of some very strange places I could take you to. There you can gain some knowledge for your fist intent and realize the deep secrets of the universe. But first, you need to find a Transmitting Formation, using the Great Way of Heavens and Realms in this location is not at all convenient for someone with your cultivation and speed. It would take 70 or 80 years to get to the place I am talking about!”
“You’re right”. Zhou Bao knew that what this guy was saying was true. This so-called Easternmost Land was so endlessly vast, that at his speed it would take him a few days or even a few months to travel from one planet to another. This star area had so many vast planets, and the Easternmost Land had countless Star Areas. If he wanted to travel around it with his own strength, heaven knows he would need many months. So, in the end, it was quicker to just use the Transmitting Formation. Of course, they had to find it first.
“Do you know where the Transmitting Formation is?”
“This Star Area is at the very edge of the Easternmost Land. You have only crossed the outermost meteor belt!”
“So what?”
“I’ve been here before, so I’m quite familiar with it. I remember that within this meteor belt there are in total 1,850 Transmitting Formations. You just need to find one of those!”
“1,850! So many?”
“That’s not much at all. Did you see how many vast planets there are around us? This is the outermost region of the Easternmost Land, and that is why the Transmitting Formations are so common. In the Easternmost Land, they are usually installed in one of two types of places. One is important locations, and the other is planets with life. Right now you don’t have a Void Map, so there’s no way for you to be sure which direction the relevant locations are in. So, if you want to find a Transmitting Formation, you have to look for those planets with life. And if I were you, I would follow that group we saw!”
