Chapter 835: Wang She’s Unexpected Arrival and the Taoist Snake Inheritance

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

Was the Yin and Yang Dust Formation really that strong?

This was the question on everybody’s minds.

But for Zhou Bao, this was not a question but a fact.

With enough time given, the Yin and Yang Dust Formation had unlimited power.

Seeing how effective this strategy was, Zhou Bao was certain that from now on things would not be easy. Although he was fully prepared, he was not at all confident facing a Divine Tribulation that could get completely out of his control. This was because on the seventh day he already felt that he was not able to operate the Wheel of Time well. That was the first time he felt this way since the Wheel of Time came into being.

His Veneration of the Three Primordial Spirits grew sullen. He cooperated with the spirits to operate the Wheel of Time, and carefully adjusted the proportions between different stretches of time. Now, he had figured out the best laws and the optimum rate of time flow. However, he found he could not support it either with his Dharma power nor with his own body strength.

“It can’t go on like this. I have already taken out everything I have facing the tribulation wind, which was many times stronger than the tribulation fire. And this tribulation thunder will certainly be many times stronger than the tribulation wind! Maybe I will really have to take out The Black Pearl?”

The Black Pearl, a Supreme Fairy Weapon, was his final card. But heaven knows if it was able to stand up to the shameless Divine Tribulation. For the last Human Immortal Tribulation, he only relied upon a half-destroyed Yin and Yang Dust Formation and opened up the passageway in the Immortal Realm. But in this tribulation, no matter what was happening with the Void Universe, everything happened in a piece of hollow close to the Heaven Realm World. It was strictly limited to a small area, and there was little he could do. The Divine Tribulation’s amassed power would be all directed at him.

“Zhou Bao, don’t overthink things! You just need to be diligent crossing this tribulation wind, then you won’t have to worry about the coming tribulation thunder!”

“Wang She?” Zhou Bao looked shocked, but deep down he was worried. “How is this possible?”

Yes, how was this possible?

Wang She’s divine thoughts came through unimpeded by the tribulation wind, the Yin and Yang Dust Formation and the operation of the Wheel of Time.

This really was incredible. He knew the extent of Wang She’s strength. Thanks to the last Void Thunder Tribulation, he reached the Human Immortal state with the Child-endowing Buddha. He had the combat capability of an Immortal, but no more. No matter what his fate was, or how much he advanced, someone in the Immortal or Earthly Immortal state had no way of projecting their divine thoughts into this dense formation.

But the proof was right in front of him. Somehow, Wang She had managed to cast his divine thoughts into the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, and was able to communicate with Zhou Bao, unaffected by the Wheel of Time.

“All you need to do is try your best to get through the wind. I have a way to help you through the tribulation thunder.”

“Are you kidding me?!” Zhou Bao was astounded. “Is that Wang She?”

Indeed, Zhou Bao had many questions about this strange situation. If that guy was not Wang She, but someone like the Celestial Mystery Emperor coming to kill him, then they would have used some marvelous Heavenly Fairy Weapon to convince him to pass the tribulation wind using all his power. Then he would be struck dead in the tribulation thunder. How pitiful would that be?

“Boy, he’s not tricking you! The coming tribulation thunder is actually of great use to him!” As Zhou Bao hesitated in bewilderment, the Ghost Child gave him a boost of encouragement. However, this Ghost Child looked just as perplexed as Zhou Bao.

“How do you know the tribulation thunder is useful to him? What’s actually going on?” Zhou Bao was full of suspicion. It seemed he was being kept in the dark.

“Nothing. If I guess right, then this guy inherited the Taoist Snake!”

“The Taoist Snake?”

“It is an ancient Celestial Immortal device. Okay, whatever it is you want to ask, wait until you have crossed the Immortal Tribulation!” The Ghost Child seemed a little impatient as if he was thinking about something.

“Wang She, the Taoist Snake, ancient Celestial Immortal? What is this all about?!” Zhou Bao felt his brain completely saturated, but he was greatly relieved to hear the Ghost Child. He also became much more relaxed while operating the Wheel of Time and Yin and Yang Dust Formation. He had gotten through the surging tribulation wind unscathed. After ten days it had completely dissipated, leaving only a trace that had made its way into the only remaining Air-frozen Bead.

Just has Wang She said, the tribulation thunder was no threat at all to him. Just as the tribulation wind was about to disappear, a golden bead suddenly appeared within the Yin and Yang Dust Formation. The tribulation thunder was comparable to an Earthly Immortal Tribulation, and it was completely absorbed by the bead. In the end, only the remaining part of its essence was released. This essence merged with the essence of the tribulation wind in the Air-frozen Bead, and with the essence of the tribulation fire in the Great Fusion Technique, tempering Zhou Bao’s body and spirit. The whole thing took ten days.

Zhou Bao had reached Immortal cultivation. After ten days he put away the formation and left the hollow with a satisfied smile. The onlookers had raised eyebrows.

But this was just how he looked from the outside. Actually, after he came out of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, the Fate Creation Boy who was engrossed in watching the commotion from afar, Wang She and Black Turtle were all using the Great Way of Heavens and Realms to break open layers of space and disappear from everyone’s divine thoughts. They appeared once more in a very secluded part of the hollow.

“Boy, why are you bringing us here? To kill us and take our treasure?” Wang She laughed.

“I am not capable of that. I just want to get to somewhere the onlookers cannot see!” Zhou Bao laughed wryly. “Now, let’s discuss how we can get the Child-endowing Buddha out, shall we?”

Wang She looked pained as he saw Zhou Bao look at him. “Don’t look at me, Zhou Bao. I can only help you because of the Rolling Thunder Beads. They might be Heavenly Fairy Weapons, but they can inflict heavy damage. They don’t even have device spirits, they only have a small trace of divine thoughts left. Your tribulation thunder has just helped them produce device spirits, and it will take a long time for them to grow up.”

“No way. Then how could your divine thoughts penetrate the Yin and Yang Dust Formation?”

“I’m not sure. It was the effect of the Rolling Thunder Beads.” Wang She smiled, seeming even more uncomfortable. “To this day I am still not sure how to use that thing. If you ask me, I can’t explain it. We need time to work out how to save the Child-endowing Buddha. You have reached Immortal cultivation, and your combat capability has increased a great deal. So this can’t be so difficult, right?”

“It isn’t easy even with Immortal cultivation! Don’t forget, they are all Great Ancient Emperors!” Zhou Bao was speechless as he listened. He could hear from Wang She’s voice that he had inherited some kind of collection. But it was just a damaged Heavenly Fairy Weapon which would not increase his strength very quickly. A damaged Heavenly Fairy Weapon could have some really wonderful effects, but it would not have much use in the current situation.

“We can’t delay in saving the Child-endowing Buddha any longer, but there are also many risks in acting hastily. We could very easily fall into a trap. We need to consider carefully what we are going to do.” The Fate Creation Boy pondered for a moment.

“It’s no use. This needs to be done sooner than later. Moreover, we don’t have any news about the Child-endowing Buddha’s whereabouts. We can only go and look for him ourselves. If we take too long the Celestial Mystery Emperor could get his way, and the Devil Tribe could win, neither of which is in our interest. They only gain an advantage if both sides win, and the more damaged they end up, the better. They only have one way of reaching their goal, and that is to let the Child-endowing Buddha go.”

Because right now the Child-endowing Buddha was like a big killing machine. Just like the atomic bombs of his later life, it could only be deployed once, and once it had been set, the whole world could not withstand it.

But the current situation was just as Wang She said. They could not wait any longer, otherwise, things could easily worsen. The Celestial Mystery Emperor and the Devil Tribe were thinking of the best way to deal with this. By the time both sides responded, the outcome and who wins might already have been decided, and all their calculating would have come to nothing.

Zhou Bao clenched his teeth. “Forget about it! I’ll go and explore the situation first. Anyway, I have never been to the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower. Last time I went, I couldn’t sneak in. But now with my Immortal Karmic Rank, if I want to get in there, no one can stop me!”

“The Sea-overlooking Gate Tower is the Vast Sea Emperor’s Supreme Fairy Weapon. It is quite mysterious, and not at all easy to get into. Are you sure you will be fine?”

“I think I should be fine, right?” This time Zhou Bao had reached the Immortal realm, had condensed the Five Qis in the Chest, and his Three Flowers above the Head were refined by the tribulation wind, fire, and thunder until they were sparkling and translucent. “If I activate my Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, I should be able to kill an Earthly Immortal!”

To kill an Earthly Immortal meant that, with his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, Zhou Bao could get right up to an Earthly Immortal without being detected and kill him in one hit. Maybe he was capable, but when it came to it, he would not be so confident about it as he was now.

“Since you are so confident, I won’t stop you. But be careful. If it doesn’t work, the most important thing is to get out.” Because of his Seven Wonderful Techniques, the Fate Creation Boy put all of his hopes on Zhou Bao. Of course, he did not want him to have any accidents due to some recklessness.

“I know!” Zhou Bao smiled. He was no fool. After opening the limitless space, he appeared right outside the Falling Star Reef. Almost the second he appeared, a river of blood started rolling down in the sky!
