Omnipotent Sage

“What, Wang She went to stir up trouble at Divine Wind Palace? He created a fracas at Divine Wind Palace and finished off Lu Shaoyou on the spot?”

Zhou Bao received this message as soon as he returned to Wuyang Region. He was stunned.

He really had not foreseen that Wang She would suddenly go berserk. The most important thing was that this guy had the same ideas as Zhou Bao, and that was to plan a treacherous scheme when he was crossing the tribulation in a secret place.

He took advantage of others who were plotting treacherous schemes while he was undergoing the tribulation. Among practitioners, this was considered the most malicious of techniques, and the most feared. Therefore, if a practitioner used this type of scheme to get back at someone, not even their friends would consider helping them out. Not that Divine Wind Palace had any friends, anyway.

Wang She had made use of this good opportunity and swung into action at the same time as Zhou Bao. Although the power that Wang She demonstrated was not as extreme as Zhou Bao’s, he still managed to kill three Human Immortals who were hiding in the depths of spacetime. He had severely injured Yu Taixuan, and with the Giant Demon of Heaven and Earth’s enormous body, almost destroyed the entire Divine Wind Palace. Also, in front of his father, The Man of Honor Ji Zhongtang, he completely annihilated Lu Shaoyou who, by then, had already entered the Venerable Realm. There was no chance of his recovery. Finally, when an indignant Yu Taixuan launched the Golden Book of Fate to bring him down, Wang She had walked away, howling with laughter, and now the once mighty super-sect of the Four Eastern Regions was completely incapacitated. At first, everyone thought that only Zhou Bao was capable of performing such impressive feats, but actually, it had all been done by Wang She.

In this battle, Wang She showed a combat capability comparable to that of the Immortal Level. The enormous body of the Giant Demon of Heaven and Earth, as well as the terrible power of the roc Real Body he had demonstrated, swallowing and spitting out the whole world, could not be rivaled by anyone in Divine Wind Palace. The pneuma taken in by the impervious fairy weapon of the Giant Demon of Heaven and Earth’s body, the Primordial Fierce Beast, and the roc Real Body, had totally destroyed Divine Wind Palace’s protective magic formation. There was no man in Divine Wind Palace who could match his power and combat capability on a one-on-one basis. In the Heaven Realm World, only Zhou Bao was a match for him.

Of course, everybody in the world knew, the terrible fact was that Zhou Bao and Wang She were the best of friends.

Each of their individual strength was enough to sweep across the Heaven Realm, what more if they combined forces?

The mere thought of it made one afraid.

Everyone knew that nobody could deal with these two men, except perhaps the enigmatic Sea Emperor and the mysterious master of Longevity Mountain Fifth Manor.

The Longevity Mountain Fifth Manor kept themselves aloof from such matters. But the Sea Emperor, haha, would this guy take care of the problems in the Seven-deity Regions? Would he come and contend with Zhou Bao and Wang She?

What a joke!

Therefore, the super-sects in the Seven-deity Regions felt very helpless. Each party with power, tacitly acknowledged that, unless they left, no matter what they did, they could do nothing to control these two guys.

But among these supreme influencers there existed something special, the Immortal Palace.

Wang She was one of the 28 constellations of the Immortal Palace. Zhou Bao was not only one of the 28 constellations, but also one of the Four Signs. The two men had very close connections with Immortal Palace. To begin with, the power of Immortal Palace increased due to these connections; however, Immortal Palace did not use this to expand their own power. Instead, their power decreased, making the situation even more mysterious. Of course, they were not completely uninvolved with what the two guys were doing and that was messing up everything in the world. In fact, they announced to the outside world that these two guys represented the palace’s own attitudes; that their ideas were the palace’s own ideas. It may seem to be a trifling matter to let the two guys practically decide on Immortal Palace’s attitudes, but those who clearly understood the situation were less than supportive of Immortal Palace’s schemes and ideas.

Soon, Zhou Bao and Wang She would be beyond control. Even though they belonged to Immortal Palace, if they were in any way dissatisfied with any decision the palace made, they could refuse to go along with it. If they expressed a different view, Immortal Palace would greatly lose face. The palace could not use their influence in its relationship with these two great experts. But since Zhou Bao and Wang She came from Immortal Palace, surely they would not deliberately work against the interests of the palace, right? Or supposing they did at some point in time, go against the interests of the Immortal Palace in some way, with their strength would they not make up for the harm? The Immortal Palace did not need to worry about any conflicts of interest.

If this type of situation had happened in other sects, even though it may not harm their interests, it would not look good to outsiders. But Immortal Palace was a special case. Basically, their attitude was that they were raising their experts liberally and they would usually not get involved in their affairs. This meant that this type of situation not only did not harm Immortal Palace’s reputation, but also served to highlight the palace’s open-handedness. Their freedom and respect for the experts’ attitudes attracted many independent practitioners. Therefore, after a time, one by one, many outstanding and strong independent practitioners who understood the Heaven Realm World, joined forces with Immortal Palace, and the palace’s strength greatly increased. Despite this, the palace kept a very low profile when carrying out their activities, meaning that others had no grasp of their true power. Of course, all this will be discussed later.

“This Wang She guy is not a fool. He took this opportunity to reveal his strength and intimidate the Heaven Realm World. Quite commendable!” Zhou Bao said, swallowing a mouthful of tea in a pavilion at the peak of Jilei Mountain. He had an odd smile. “What about the man in the blood-stained robe? After he came back and heard news of the Fairy Pool Hunter’s death, we didn’t know if he would go crazy. Haha, it was a total shock to the Fiery Eyes family. Revitalizing a bloodline is not as simple as you would think!”

Zhou Bao actually appreciated this Bloody-robed Lord of Heaven who was from his own family, and his courage and confidence in revitalizing the Fiery Eyes bloodline and his perseverance for so many years. But he was not comparable to Zhou Bao, and Zhou Bao did not approve of his approach.

Radical, it was too radical, as well as too high-profile.

His behavior would only make the Fiery Eyes family the target of attacks from all sides and be pushed aside by others. It would finally lose power or even disappear. He would put the Fiery Eyes family back onto the path to oblivion.

Zhou Bao had investigated and exposed what had happened when the Fiery Eyes family nearly went extinct several thousand years ago.

It all originated from their mysterious eyeballs. Their powers were too effective. The most annoying thing was that they could have been refined to a Supreme Class Celestial Device, Pure Yang Celestial Device, External Elixir, or even a fairy weapon.

But this would cause their downfall as it attracted the envy of others.

It was as if they were evil beasts. The Demon tribes back then were actually not cruel, but because humankind took a liking for their very effective demon elixir, they would kill the demons to extract it. Even now, they were killing demons in no small amount for their elixir. How could the Heaven Realm World become so poor? It was not because they had plundered all kinds of resources. The Eternal Eyes were also a resource for the Fiery Eyes family, and a very useful resource. How could the other clans not covet them?

Not only were the Eternal Eyes a thing of envy, but they also defied the natural order due to their efficacy. Practitioners with the power of the Fiery Eyes often challenged the bypassing ranks, and it made them particularly arrogant. They would often use their red eyes to pick a fight just to show that the other person was inferior to them. I am the face of the noble Fiery Eyes family, is there anyone who can withstand me? Also, the commander of the Fiery Eyes family at that time was power crazy. He wanted to become a Human Emperor candidate, and take over a seat at Divine Wind Palace and control the Seven-deity Regions. This obviously drew repercussions from the all of the super-sects.

Rome was not built in a day. It took many years of experiencing this type of behavior before the eyes attracted people’s envy and gave them a sense of crisis. They had ambitions far beyond their strengths, and this caused the downfall of the Fiery Eyes family. This once outstanding and mighty tribe of the Seven-deity Regions was annihilated overnight.

Very few survived. Zhou Bao was one of them, and the Bloody-robed Lord of Heaven was another. Only, Zhou Bao and the Bloody-robed Lord of Heaven were totally different. The Bloody-robed Lord of Heaven was taught from a young age how to revitalize the Fiery Eyes family and to make the family one of the noblest tribes of the Seven-deity Regions; to become royalty and to rule over all the land. But Zhou Bao was simply not interested in this bloodline, and did not consider it a noble bloodline at all. He was also aware of the greed of others, and of how terrible the outcome could be due to jealousy. Therefore, he always hid his power and quietly became rich. In his mind, even if his fellow clan members were to rule the world, they could not hide their secrets, abilities, and defiance of the natural order, or prevent other family members from revealing them the outside world. Only by creating a terrifying sense of mystery could they survive in the long term.

Therefore, in the end, Zhou Bao held the Bloody-robed Lord of Heaven in contempt for his actions. They were the actions of an inexperienced fool, who had not learned the lessons of his predecessors. Zhou Bao was not willing to cooperate with him, and they went their separate ways.

It was only now since he had killed the Fairy Pool Hunter that he had no choice but to consider how the Bloody-robed Lord of Heaven would react. He was not in the least bothered even if the guy revealed to the world about how Zhou Bao had the Fiery Eyes bloodline. But if this information did leak out, he would have to use the thunderbolt method to uproot Divine Wind Palace. Only in this way could he intimidate everyone and make it known that he, Zhou Bao, would use the Fiery Eyes method. But this would cause Divine Wind Palace to push ahead and change their disaster plans.

Having undergone the massacre at Wang She’s hands, Divine Wind Palace no longer had the power to avoid disaster. But, after all, they had had the Golden Book of Fate for many years, and Divine Wind Palace had some hidden powers and bluffs that other sects did not. Therefore, Zhou Bao was not willing to uproot them without first milking them of all their remaining value!
