Chapter 367: Thorn Wheel Fiery Eye, Region

“Including the Golden Book of Fate?”
All of a sudden, Zhou Bao was overwhelmed, as if something occurred to him. With a rush of ecstasy on his face, he said, “You mean, the Azure Secret Area has its own Golden Book of Fate?”
“Not the Golden Book of Fate. It’s the Origin of the Great Ways!” Green Spirit smiled. “Every world has its essence, whether it’s complete or not. For instance, what the Divine Wind Palace wants from the Taiyuan Heaven is its essence. Their plan is to use the Golden Book of Fate to fight against the Primeval Beast. Likewise, in the core of the Azure Secret Area, there lives an associated Primeval Beast which is different from the one in the Taiyuan Heaven. It has its own Origin of the Great Ways and the Golden Book of Fate. But for now, it has yet to take shape, which gives the Divine Wind Palace, and you, of course, a great chance.”
“Tell me more!” said Zhou Bao, who has become totally interested thanks to Green Spirit.
“The Golden Book of Fate is an essence that can complete the world. Regardless of capability, anyone without luck can’t sense it, not to mention control it. Only the living creatures with the same essence as the heaven and earth can sense it, such as the Innate Deity and the Primordial Demon of the Primordial Origin. In the outside world, the Golden Book of Fate has been handed down from generation to generation. But here in the Azure Secret Area, you need fate to get it. I guess the reason why the Fiery Eyes are connected to the Golden Book of Fate is that the Fiery Eyes was the fusion of the bloodlines of the Innate Deity and the Primordial Demon. Hence, the Fiery Eyes are able to sense the Golden Book of Fate and to control it in some way. The Azure Secret Area is currently evolving into a complete world. The Golden Book of Fate has yet taken shape. It only has a little Origin of the Great Ways instead of the mighty power of the Golden Book of Fate. Things will be much easier if your Fiery Eyes can sense the essence and capture it in advance. If I’m right, the Divine Wind Palace intends to make the shadow of the Golden Book of Fate echo the essence of this world. Then, by merging the two into one, chances are that the shadow of the Golden Book of Fate would evolve into a complete one. It might not be as strong as the Golden Book of Fate out there, but its growth will be promising. Furthermore, if it succeeds, it will be of great help in fighting against the Primeval Beast in the Azure Secret Area. They may actually rule the Azure Secret Area!”
Grasping the meaning of those words, Zhou Bao said, “That is to say, if I capture the essence of this world in advance, when the Divine Wind Palace influences the essence using the shadow of the Golden Book of Fate, I’ll have the chance to control the shadow and beat the Divine Wind Palace?”
“Exactly. But that is if you can capture the essence of this world!” Green Spirit smiled, “If you can do that, you control the entire Azure Secret Area without anyone knowing!”
“Without anyone knowing?”
“Yeah, you know, the evolution of the world. Things like that have never happened before. Even in the antiquity times, it was only a deduction, a bold theory conceived by the necromancers. It never became a reality, nor was there enough time to be one. As a result, nobody knows what the essence of the world will become if someone actually does this kind of things. When Divine Wind Palace’s shadow of the Golden Book of Fate is captured by the essence of this world in a twist of events, no one would suspect you as long as you keep a low profile. You can secretly have the Azure Secret Area in hand. If someone in the Azure Secret Area pisses you off someday, you can easily hurt that guy. For example, that beloved disciple of mine!”
“Your beloved disciple?” It took Zhou Bao a minute to realize that the one he was talking about was Happy Monk.
“Oh, him! Are you sure you are going to the Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple under this cover?” asked Zhou Bao.
“Yeah, what’s the problem?”
“No, none at all! Just a little worried that you would blow your cover and I would have to suffer along with you!”
“No worries! Like I’ve told you, I have absorbed his spirit. The only one who could see through me is Happy Monk himself, so you’d better find a chance to kill him!”
“He is your disciple. You have a million chances to get rid of him. You don’t need me to do your dirty job. I don’t want to get so much blood on my hands!”
“Oh, there will always be blood on your hands!” Green Spirit smiled. “But I won’t force you into it. We shall see by then. I think your practice with the Fiery Eyes has reached a perfect degree. It’s time for us to get down to other businesses, don’t you think?”
“Well, soon. Even though my Fiery Eyes has yet to reach that man’s power, it is close enough if I put up an all-out effort. But still, I have another mission in the Azure Secret Area, and that is to perfect my Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword by the Yin and Yang Evil Qi here!”
“I told you that the power of your Sword Qi had nothing to do with the Evil Qi. Those two Evil Qis of yours were of the top players in the world. You know, when it comes to special techniques, your own insights are as important as the quality of the Evil Qi. Take your Three Realms Division as an example. I suppose it was not easy for you to use it in the beginning, but it’s now a different story. You could sense the fluctuation and variation of space merely by your spiritual mind rather than the Three Realms Division. This is called “savey”. The same applies to the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword. Those are all the things you need to comprehend through time. Rushing is pointless. You should practice them more frequently and skillfully as long as you find a chance. Before long, you could comprehend a small portion of the tricks!”
It was like a teacher giving a lecture to his disciple, but Zhou Bao was totally comfortable with it. He gratefully nodded and said, “I understand. Thanks!”
A simple “thanks” showed all the difference. If Green Spirit had said those words in psywave like he used to, Zhou Bao would have simply nodded, as if he was bound to get help from Green Spirit. Now that Green Spirit had a new body, things were different. Zhou Bao learned to be grateful to Green Spirit’s teaching.
Green Spirit was satisfied with Zhou Bao’s gratitude. “No big deal. We are in the same boat from now on. We know all about each other. No one can come between us!”
Know all about each other?
Zhou Bao sneered secretly. He knew nothing but that Green Spirit was a Great Ancient Demon, while Green Spirit knew nothing but that Zhou Bao had strong fate and a pair of Fiery Eyes. How could that count as “know all about each other”?
But still, having felt the friendliness, Zhou Bao nodded and smiled, “Of course!”
“Oh, and you must have achieved a good deal in the past few months. You’ll undergo the Thunder Tribulation once we get out, right?”
“Yeah. If I hadn’t entered the Azure Secret Area thanks to you, I would have to wait for another 20 or 30 years!” He slightly sighed and continued, “Nevertheless, if you can’t control the essence of the Azure Secret Area this time round, I’m afraid this would be our last visit to this place!”
“Are you sure that the Divine Wind Palace is so desperate? Don’t forget that they have prepared to get into Taiyuan Heaven for at least 1,000 years. Considering the fact that the Azure Secret Area is far more dangerous than the Taiyuan Heaven, shouldn’t they need some time to get prepared?”
“The reason why they decided to take action in the Azure Secret Area so soon is that they had been preparing for the Taiyuan Heaven for a very long time, and everything has been well prepared by now. You know, taking over one of the 33 Heavens is never a thing that you could be 100% sure of. The Divine Wind Palace must have a backup plan in case anything goes wrong in the Taiyuan Heaven. Maybe the Azure Secret Area has always been their Plan B.”
Talking about this, Green Spirit sighed, “Now that their scheme is no longer a secret, they will naturally want to strike first. Better go early than later. Otherwise, the four influences including the Immortal Palace, the Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple, the Dragon Thunder Palace and the Jade Pool, would notice and fight against them together! You don’t want that, do you?”
“Makes sense!”
Old birds were not to be caught with chaff. Zhou Bao kept nodding his head while listening. He totally bought Green Spirit’s words, which were clear and logical. In contrast, he found himself shallow.
“So, about taking over the essence of the Azure Secret Area. How should I do it?”
“You’ll do it on your own. It’s your eyes! Your cultivation is too low to take over the essence of a world merely by your own strength. More like a joke, in fact! Your only chance is your eyes!”
“My eyes?” A thought occurred to Zhou Bao. During the past month in the Azure Secret Area, he had been studying his pair of special eyes of his and had gained some knowledge from it.
The more he knew about his own eyes, the more curious he was about them. They always surprised him throughout the last month. The Thorn Wheel Fiery Eyes actually have their own “region”!
Zhou Bao actually did not understand what a region was. He just called the area covered by a red light a region. Not only his strength, speed, and his spiritual mind, but also his physical strength and recovery capability, increased multifold. What’s more, the region, coordinated with his Fist Intent Space, was more than enough to improve his power by hundreds of times.
Yes, hundreds of times!
He was not exaggerating. When the region of his Fiery Eyes was activated, his close combat ability would be abnormally strong. And his Critical Hit enabled him to attack as if he was crushing vacuum with his fist.
Of course, that was just a feeling. He could open the space barrier with a single punch, but there was still a long way to go before he could truly crush vacuum and turn everything into nothing.
However, taking White Tiger’s combat capability as an example, even if he had hidden skills, if he was trapped in the Fist Intent Space again, Zhou Bao was sure that he could give him a clean death.
That was just one of several functions of the Fiery Eyes.
Just as he had displayed in front of Green Spirit, the power of his turtledove’s claw greatly improved within the region of the Fiery Eyes. He could neatly pull the spirit out of his enemy’s body with his claw, even when he was confronting a Genuine Immortal-like expert like Green Spirit. Of course, the degree of compatibility between Green Spirit’s spirit and body should be taken into consideration. But Zhou Bao believed that average experts of the Mysterious Realm could not withstand a single attack of his claws.
