“Interesting, since when did Heaven Realm World have three such weird fellows?”
Accompanying the mocking voice, a black hand hovered over their heads.
“Open!” Seeing the big hand coming towards them, the three of them freaked out. Shi Jian roared ferociously and threw his black axe towards the big hand.
“Whoosh!”
A strong yet mysterious tearing force managed to rip Zhou Bao’s Poisonous Pneuma Hand apart. The poison in the big hand did not seem to have any effect on the fairy weapon. It only caused the outer layer of the black axe to rot. However, after it rotted away the outer layer, the mysterious force re-emerged from the black axe and restored the axe.
Zhou Bao did not care.
His poisonous pneuma big hand could make anything rot. However, when tackling fairy weapons, things do not always go so smoothly. On the other hand, when fairy weapons could not work, he could still aim for Gang Qi and Dharma power.
All these three people had fairy weapons. Seeing the black hand coming towards them, they did not care that much. However, a split second later, they realized that something was not right.
After being split open by the black axe, the big hand did not dissipate. Instead, it turned into a big bank of black fog and started spreading everywhere. There was not much effect on the bodies of the fairy weapons; the black fog had limited effects on them. However, be it the pneuma emitted from the fairy weapons or their Dharma power, they all rotted at an alarming speed in the black fog.
After the strange power, which was the Peach Blossom Miasma, was refined by Zhou Bao, it had been upgraded several times. Even when tackling Gang Qi gel, which had the Dharma power of the Immortal realm, the Peach Blossom Miasma was still able to dissolve the Dharma power like hot water being poured over snow.
“How is this possible?”
The three of them did not think that Zhou Bao’s tricks would be so strange and harsh. Despite their powerful cultivations that were higher than Zhou Bao’s, they found themselves helpless in this Yin and Yang Dust Formation, while facing Zhou Bao’s poisonous big hand. They could only use their fairy weapons to protect their bodies as they scurried away.
Seeing the three of them retreat, Zhou Bao gave a cold laugh, but did not go after them.
Having entered the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, Zhou Bao did not think that they had any possibility of escaping from it.
Indeed, the three of them retreated at lightning speed. However, the space was empty and the heavens and earth were all different.
“Damn it, this formation is too powerful, we can’t get out at all!”
They waved their fairy weapons in the air frantically for three consecutive times but still failed to open the surrounding space. Shi Jian’s face turned blue. “If we continue like this, we will all be trapped here and die. Big Brother, we have to think of a way to get out!”
“What can we do now?” The man who was called Big Brother, was magnificently dressed. He smiled bitterly and sighed. Initially, he thought that this trip would be very easy, since there was only Zhou Bao to defeat. He did not expect it to exert such a toll on them. Not only did Zhou Bao not appear, but they were also trapped by his formation! He knew that Heaven Realm World was protected by the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, but just like everyone else, he also thought that Heaven Realm World was the work of the Fate Creator and had nothing to do with anyone else. Now, it seemed like that was not the case.
“I am Tie Yi from the Evil Alliance, I am requesting to meet King Wuyang!”
After trying numerous times with his fairy weapon, the practitioner by the name of Tie Yi finally gave up. After calling out his name loudly thrice, he finally got a reply.
“Evil Alliance? Interesting, I heard that whoever is involved with them will usually have a bad ending, am I right?”
“We do not have any bad intentions, we were under orders to check on some things here. I think you’ve seen that we didn’t even kill your guards!” At this point in time, be it Tie Yi or Shi Jian, they were all glad that they did not start their killing rampage yet. If not, they would have a hard time explaining themselves now.
“I don’t care if you did, that has nothing to do with me. You trespassed into my King Wuyan Palace and will not be released so easily. You will stay in the formation for some time. When I’m in a better mood, I’ll decide what to do with you guys!”
“How dare you! We are the law-enforcers of the Evil Alliance, how dare you retain us like this? Do you want to die?” This time round, the voice neither belonged to Shi Jian nor Tie Yi, but to the third guy.
“Jin Tao, shut up!” Tie Yi had a shock when he suddenly shouted. He hushed him up quickly.
“Interesting guy. Indeed, I do not want to live anymore. Why, do you want to take my life?” Zhou Bao’s crisp voice vibrated in the surrounding space.
“I’m very sorry, King Wuyang. My friend here just joined us and has not yet learned how to be civil. I apologize to you on his behalf!” Tie Yi quickly apologized.
However, after that, they no longer heard from Zhou Bao.
Tie Yi continued to shout a few times but still did not get any response. Obviously, Zhou Bao wanted to throw them into the formation directly.
For so many years, Zhou Bao did try doing that. When Wuyang Region was first built, it attracted numerous spies. This was why Zhou Bao set up the Yin and Yang Dust Formation in Wuyang Region. For so many years, the Yin and Yang Dust Formation had opened quite a few times. However, for the past few years, there were fewer spies who risked their lives to come here. But the cases increased again ever since the passageway in the Void Immortal Realm reopened, connecting Heaven Realm World with the Void Universe. No matter what, be it one or two spies, he would still have to entrap them. If it were not for these three’s super high cultivation that had shocked Zhou Bao, he would not even have bothered to talk to them, and just let them die on their own in the formation.
“King Wuyang, we’re not here to spy on Your Excellency. We are here on the Evil Alliance’s orders to check on some things. Even if you entrap us, the alliance will send a second batch and then a third batch. If you do not want to become enemies with the alliance, let us go!”
“You guys really don’t know how to live. Do you think that I’m afraid of you just because you’re from the Evil Alliance?”
“I do not have any intentions to threaten you. I’m just telling the truth and want to help you find a good solution!”
“You’re a good talker, but I have no dealings with the Evil Alliance, so what do you guys want from me?”
“Your Excellency indeed does not have any dealings with the Evil Alliance. However, you do have an expert under you who has the Zhuyan bloodline. Not long ago, he murdered an Earthly Immortal at Eastern Thunder World in Easternmost Land. That stirred up a huge commotion. Now, a few big sects in the Void Universe have sprung into full action to investigate into this matter. That’s because this man did not use his own abilities to kill the Earthly Immortal, but used a Heavenly Fairy Weapon instead!”
“Does this mean that the big sects are afraid this guy will use the fairy weapon to kill the other Earthly Immortals, so they’re trying to look for him here?”
“That’s right. Initially, we did not have any clues. But that guy used the energy from his Zhuyan bloodline while fighting with the Earthly Immortal. He exhibited extremely strong fighting capabilities. Hence, we are making use of this clue to find him. Since Your Excellency also has the Zhuyan bloodline, we decided to come to you!”
“What an interesting reason! According to what you have just said, the whole Void Universe is investigating this matter. But you guys are from the Evil Alliance, so can you tell me if you’re representing the whole Void Universe or the Evil Alliance?”
“Of course it is the Evil Alliance! Although this matter is such a big issue in the Void Universe now and everyone is investigating into this matter, we’re also doing it on our own, so-!”
“Does this mean, after I deal with you, there’ll be other assholes?”
“This…!” Zhou Bao’s sudden question caused Tie Yi to be at a loss for words. After thinking for a very long time, he finally answered, “Of course, no matter what’s the outcome of our investigations, there are bound to be people who don’t believe us. It is very likely that other influences may come and make trouble for Your Excellency!”
“Then, as an exchange for me sparing your lives, tell me how I can prevent that from happening?”
Zhou Bao’s voice echoed in Tie Yi’s ears; he was not sure what to do next. He was an Immortal, one of the few experts in the Evil Alliance. He was also the king among the practitioners. But today, in Heaven Realm World that had fallen to the extreme, Tie Yi encountered this extremely troublesome opponent. An opponent that appeared right from the start, to be actively leading them by their noses. After falling into the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, the three of them were then attacked by Zhou Bao’s poisonous pneuma big hand. After knowing that the three of them would definitely not gain any advantage here, their confidence was shaken and their Qi Power naturally became weaker than Zhou Bao’s.
“This…!”
However, Tie Yi was an elite character of the Evil Alliance after all. He thought for a while and came up with an answer that was the most advantageous for him. “This is not something that the three of us can promise. However, our Evil Alliance is one of the few big sects in the Void Universe. Besides, everyone knows that we’re here only to conduct investigations. If we manage to conclude that this has nothing to do with Your Excellency, then I think it will reduce some unnecessary trouble for you!”
“The Evil Alliance does indeed have a high position in the Void Universe. Just like what you said, if you manage to prove that this whole situation has nothing to do with me, it will definitely reduce the amount of trouble!” Speaking of which, Zhou Bao paused, “Fine, since that’s the case, I’ll tell you directly. This thing has nothing to do with me, I have never even heard of Eastern Thunder World, is that enough?”
“You!”
“Yes, of course it is enough. We have investigated thoroughly and it indeed has nothing to do with Your Excellency. However, I do have a word of warning for you!”
“What warning?”
“There is no evidence. After we leave, Your Excellency had better find some solid proof to show that this has nothing to do with you!”
“Then, do you have any good suggestions?”
“If King Wuyang doesn’t mind, how about we discuss this face to face?”
“Okay!!!” As he spoke, the space around the three people moved slightly and a straight path appeared beneath their feet. A huge magnificent palace appeared at the other end of the path.
