Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

“Boy, don’t turn a deaf ear to my words! The Master of the Golden Lights Cave is a very unyielding person. If his mind is fixated on one decision he will stick to it forever. When his fame was renowned, we were not even born yet. Although the things he has achieved could not be a patch on yours, he is not weaker than you. Are you listening to me? When he was newly upgraded to Level Seven, he managed to defeat three Chiefs and eight Elders of Tian Long Taoism, many of whom were Level Eight experts. The reason why I became a Chief so easily is due to the fact that he had badly wounded the former Chief. After that incident, our Tian Long Taoism has always been at odds with the followers of Golden Lights Cave. The Master of Golden Lights Cave created the Golden Lights Cave and devoted himself to strengthening the lineage, and has been quietly cultivating his mind and staying at Qianyuan Mountain for closed-door training and insights of the Great Way of Sword Mastery during these past decades. But his disciples, as you know, are all experts above Level Seven!”

“Yeah, they are all experts above Level Seven, but merely experts.” Zhou Bao said with a smile, “However since Chief is so afraid of him, I won’t lower my guard and will be more vigilant”

“Look how nonchalant you are! Make sure you really watch out for him? Stop joking!” Seeing Zhou Bao wasn’t paying any attention to him, Wang She shook his head and stopped talking. Then he faded into thin air and vanished.

“Your… Your Excellency!” After Wang She left, silence prevailed in the room for a while, and then Zhu Ba started talking. “Your Excellency, are you really willing to give us the Pure Yang Celestial Devices?”

“You’re wrong! They’re for Jiang Xiao and Wang Cheng. As for you, we’ll talk about it after your skill levels exceed Level Eight!”

“Level Eight? You must be joking! Why?”

“Because that is what I want !” Zhou Bao smiled and patted Zhu Ba. “Although your aptitude is excellent, your moral values are poor. If you couldn’t attain Level Eight, you’d better kill yourself out of shame if that happens. Why do you need a Pure Yang Celestial Device?”

“I–” He was stunned into silence and could only stare at Zhou Bao’s receding figure.

“Oh, Zhu Ba. It looks like His Excellency really thinks highly of you!” Wang Cheng and Jiang Xiao smiled bemusedly at each other and said, “But he is right. He has been training you as his disciple and has been very strict with your skills refinement all the time. If you couldn’t raise your skills up to Level Eight even with such a tutor, you should really be ashamed of yourself!”

“Do you guys think that Pure Yang Celestial Devices are already yours? Your skills set are only at Level Five, it would be terribly difficult for you to reach Level Seven,” Zhu Ba snorted.

…

“F*ck, this saber is clearly a katana. What kind of vile weapon is this?” Squinting at the Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill in his hand, Zhou Bao had his doubts

“F*ck, this saber is clearly a katana. What kind of Evil Way it is?” Watching the Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill in hand, Zhou Bao squinted and had doubts in his mind.

“The language of this world is similar to that from the past world. Characters and idioms are alike as well. How did this item which is similar to a Japanese creation appear here? Is Wasn’t the ancient Chuyun destroyed by the Yamato people? How come there is a similar tribe in the Yingzhou Region? They are indeed an unlucky tribe to be destroyed a second time round. But the knife remains intact. Is it because this world has somehow connected to my previous life?”

“Well, there should be a connection. Otherwise, I would not have been reincarnated here for no reason. Isn’t that what Buddha said ‘to see the world in a wildflower and a bodhi in a leaf’? No, it shouldn’t be that. I don’t believe in Buddhism, but how did I end up in this world?”

Even after pondering on it for sometime, he couldn’t come up with a plausible explanation. Zhou Bao had no choice but to infuse the evil knife with his GangQi. Then he purified and suppressed it with the Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Qi to defuse its evil Qi.

“Never mind. It’s always good to be alive. Now due to my limited skills, I can’t figure it out, but one day I will. Humph, there must be a reason why I was sent here.”

His hand stroked the handle of the evil saber. Suddenly, a chilling, macabre sensation seeped through Zhou Bao’s body.

“It’s just a cheap trick!” Feeling an evil psychic power emanating from the coldness, Zhou Bao sneered and activated the Real Essence of Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique to dissipate the power. He grasped the handle of the saber and waved it in the air.

The saber started spinning about and its blade sliced through the air. It gave off a sound much like a snake’s sibilant hissing. The sound echoed around the air but did not attract any attention from the people around. But Zhou Bao found that with each slash of the blade, cracks started appearing in the space around him.

They were mere cracks and the spaces did not split too widely. An evil Qi had damaged its surface and left chinks in it.

“I merely gave it a wave and it already produced such an effect. If I were to energise it with my full strength, it will definitely split the place asunder and release its destructive powers.. Hehe, it is a pity that there is so much evil Qi on it. My Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Essence is able to suppress the evil Qi, but it can’t be infused into this saber, so the actual power of the saber has not utilized to the maximum. Hehe, the Bigwheel Temple really has a good plan. Even if they were to lose, there will not be any benefits for me. It is a pity they are unaware my Nine Heavens Primordial Ruler can purify this evil saber. But if this evil saber was purified, it wouldn’t be an evil saber anymore. Even if it was a Pure Yang Celestial Device, its power wouldn’t be as strong as before. After all, it was once at the level of a magic weapon. I’d better figure out another plan. Should I use it for evil means?” Zhou Bao thought to himself. At this point, he realized how useful Green Spirit had been. Green Spirit was like a walking encyclopedia with its knowledge on the things he was not sure of. Whether its suggestions were rational or not, everything would always be solved in the end. Now with Green Spirit was gone, he was always in doubt when he had troubling issues in mind.

“Forget it, I will trust my own instincts. Even though Green Spirit came up with some good ideas, I don’t really trust them enough to base my final decisions on them. It can only be one of my alliances, just like Wang She. If I were to establish a close relationship with it, it would still betray me!”

Zhou Bao infused the Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill into his Gang Qi and suppressed it with his Nine Heavens Primordial Yang Qi. In a flash, he sat on the cloud bed again.

After visiting the Azure Secret Area, he discovered that his practice place in Jilei Mountain had changed a lot. The cloud bed he used for his daily practice was once a stone bed, but was gradually turning into an intact piece of Ten-thousand-year-old Warm Jade. Even if a mere piece of this jade was made available to the outside world, there would be hordes of people rushing to own it, as it was such a valuable treasure. Its powers could be used to suppress internal demons and the restless Internal Qi, which could protect one from being possessed by the devil. Yet when he was honing his skills, Zhou Bao used it as a bed.

Around the small cave, there was a protective formation made up of 81 Top-Grade Spirit Stones. This structure was formed by the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, but its powers were not as formidable as the Yin and Yang Dust Formation. It was apparently a weaker version of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation and Death Gate. Even though it was just a copy without the Innate Qi Talisman as the Formation Eye, it could still unleash remarkable powers. Even the attacks from several Individual Immortals could not destroy its formation.

In addition to these two defences, there was a spring behind the cave, which was the reason why Zhou Bao chose this to be his place of practice. Although the spring was a common feature, but it didn’t hide the fact that Zhou Bao was rich as hell. In the Azure Secret Area, he brought out a piece of the Green Spirit Essence. After he buried it beneath the ground, it was able to realign the spirit vein, gather together the veins that had been dispersed previously and create a whole new spirit veinscattered.

This spirit vein was different from the dragon vein. The dragon vein’s power was linked to fate, and it was intangible. However, the spirit vein’s obligation was to produce the spiritual qi to nourish the world. The spirit vein was initially invisible but as the spiritual qi around it gathered with mounting speed, it became visible to all.

The places imbued with the spirit veins were called Cave Paradises. All the powerful families in the world had their homes centered around Cave Paradises. For instance, the Immortal Palace which Zhou Bao had visited, was built on a giant spirit vein, which was stronger than the one that Zhou Bao had gathered with the Green Spirit Essence. Tian Long Mystic Mountain of Tian Long Taoism was a Cave Paradise, too.

The Northwest Region was just a dismal and bleak piece of land and the spirit veins there were scanty and small. Because of this, they were too tiny to transform the piece of land into a Cave Paradise. But now with the Green Spirit Essence, it was different. The Green Spirit Essence had a powerful spiritual qi and was capable of combining with the spirit vein as well. Although it could not form a vast Cave Paradise like Tian Long Taoism, it was still able to transform this small cave and the surrounding areas within a 100 miles of the cave into a great Cave Paradise.

“My Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique has already reached the basic level. With this environment, even if I kept on practising, I will not make much progress. My Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique has also reached the Advanced Level and Real Dragon’s Nine Acupoints has attained its breakthrough. Even if it didn’t reach the Advanced Level, I am not able to practise it anymore now. Sh*t, I’ve gained so many benefits from Taiyuan Heaven and I feel that I have reached the peak of my skills attainment at Level Nine. If I carried on practising my skills, there would be a huge chance that I am able to exceed Level Nine and upgrade to the Golden Book of Fate. If this is true, I would lose more than I’ve gained. So I had better put up with it!”

Zhou Bao drummed his fingertips on the warm jade bed and he said, “This being the case, I will seize this opportunity to create some mischief. In the past, there were always others creating trouble in my territory, but now it’s my turn to do the same. How will they react?”
