Chapter 439: Three Gifted Powers
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

Zhou Bao was overjoyed by the discovery of these three gifted powers of the Primitive Dragon Chimera because these powers were quite practical. The most exciting part was the fact that, among the three gifted powers, there was one power related to space, which enabled you to do hollow travels. However, this power, which was called the Phantom Body Skill, was different from his Three Realms Division. It was a technique that allowed you to slip through cracks in space like an earthworm. It could not move you to a place dozens or even hundreds of miles away like the Three Realms Division, but when you are unable to fend off an attack, it could allow you to drill a hole in the current space you were in with just a shake of your body and to escape into that crack. It worked the same way when attacking. Your figure would disappear and reappear in a flash, which might give the opponent the creeps. Of course, the most important function of this gifted power was that it could break constraints and formations.

There were myriads of formations and constraints in the world, but few of them could really constrain the space. Even if they could, they might not be able to resist being penetrated by Zhou Bao's Phantom Body Skill. It could be said that this was an extremely useful power and was pretty helpful to Zhou Bao's present plan. After all, he was going to sneak into the Dragon Abyss Prison to rescue his companions. The other two gifted powers were also equally amazing, namely the Slippery Body Technique and the Yin-devouring Technique.

The Slippery Body Technique, as its name implied, featured properties of an earthworm. Just like those solidification passive techniques he encountered in the games of his previous life, this technique required no operation. As long as he was underwater, once an attack was coming up, the water around his body would turn into a substance that almost had no friction and made his body slippery. Its function was a bit similar to that of the dislodging formula of the Tai Chi Fist, but its effect was much better. In water, it could almost shake off nearly 80% of any physical attacking force. Moreover, it would make it even more difficult to catch him alive. If you do not believe it, put your hands in water and try to grab an earthworm.

As for the Gifted power Yin-devouring Technique, it was one of the powers his Demonic Fire possessed.

The reason why the Dragon Chimera was named like that was because it fed on dragons. The most crucial reason was that it possessed the Demonic Fire.

To be honest, the Demonic Fire of the Dragon Chimera was of a sinister kind. It not only reached a high temperature but also had a unique feature of devouring. Precisely because of this unique feature, Zhou Bao successfully devoured the essence, blood, and spirit of that Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan. Before Zhou Bao produced his incarnation, this function did not play a big role. Only when special incidents happened could Zhou Bao feel and be affected by the greedy lust for devouring something, which came from his internal Demonic Fire. For example, when he saw the Invisible Dragon Rod, he felt an urge of gluttony; when he glimpsed at the huge egg of the Primordial Demonic Ape Zhuyan, he also sensed the same impulse. Previously, this impulse was produced passively and unpredictably. But now, when his incarnation was achieved, everything became predictable, and the greed, viciousness, and other properties of his Demonic Fire were all refined into one power - the Yin-devouring Technique.

Yin-devouring Technique!

It could melt, dissolve, and devour the opponent. In addition, it would enable one to gain the opponent's power.

It sort of resembled the Star Attracting Technique, but it also differed from it in many aspects. Melting and dissolving were not a big deal, but the ability to seize and devour the enemy was more like gambling, depending on luck. To put it in other words, only when the opponent's power matches one's own strength could one devour and absorb him.

Zhou Bao merely looked a bit into this kind of gifted power. At present, he was still in the passive cognition phase, so it would be hard for him to perform this technique at will right now.

Apart from these three gifted powers, the property of this Dragon Chimera incarnation that pleased Zhou Bao most was the strong ability to move around underwater.

It felt just like being a fish in water!

This was what Zhou Bao felt right now. Meanwhile, he also learned a bit about why the Sea Area, which had such powerful strength, had not made any attack against the Seven-deity Regions. Maybe the reason was not that the Celestial Emperor of the Sea Area was content with things as they were, but that those marine demons would feel very uncomfortable if they went out of the sea. Or maybe the power of most of the marine demons would be significantly weakened when they leave the sea, and their power would gradually decline if they stayed too long on land. However, this would not matter to Demonic Immortals who got into the Ranking of Demons and Immortals.

This is exactly the reason why the Sea Area and the Seven-deity Regions had co-existed in peace for the past thousands of years.

Strolling on the street of Right-angle Bay, Zhou Bao was no longer at a nonplus as he first entered the sea world. Now, the surrounding water streams and water pressure could not pose any resisting force upon him.

He was walking and moving around as he liked, not having to pretend his proficiency in living underwater anymore.

"That's it! Now I finally can start to be a real marine demon. This cannot be done by faking. Now, even if Rolling Dragon King is standing in front of me, he will not detect anything abnormal about me! Hehe!" As he walked, Zhou Bao was immersed in his thoughts, utterly oblivious of those astonished looks shot by others around him.

Why did others cast astonished looks at Zhou Bao?

Because just nearby, a patrol squad of demons was hurtling towards his direction. Their target was obviously Zhou Bao, who happened to realize the situation. However, he did not worry about it.

These patrol demons were similar to those officers and soldiers in the Seven-deity Regions. But of course, their power was much stronger, and the whole squad consisted of demons.

The one leading the squad was the same leader he had seen when he first entered Right-angle Bay. When he saw Zhou Bao, a trace of inexplainable unease flitted across his eyes. The leader remembered that this guy had promised him that he would only stay at Right-angle Bay for ten days to half a month. But now, it had been 20 days, and this guy was still leisurely trotting on streets. This could not be good.

"Paying my tribute to this Upper Immortal!" Walking in front of Zhou Bao, the leader bowed slightly. "I am Wan Youfu, the Captain of the third squad of Governing Mansion at Right-angle Bay. By order of the Manager of the Governing Mansion, I'm here to invite you, Upper Immortal, to visit the Governing Mansion."

The Sea Area also had its own managing institutions. For most demons, a man like Rolling Dragon King almost equated to an emperor, whom they would never have a chance to encounter in their entire life. The one they had most dealings with was the local Governing Mansion.

The Governing Mansion amounted to an official in the Seven-deity Regions and only existed in places like Right-angle Bay. This Governing Mansion was fully functional and was the strongest influence in the Right-angle Bay area. Also, it was an official influence representing Rolling Dragon King. According to the rules, going against the Governing Mansion would be equivalent to going against the reign of Rolling Dragon King. Thus, even those Demonic Immortals with high cultivations would not dare to mess with influences like the Governing Mansion.

Furthermore, the Governing Mansion was also in charge of the management of the entire Right-angle Bay, which meant it had great power. Once you step foot into Right-angle Bay, no matter who you were, you would be under the governance of the Governing Mansion. It was pretty normal for the Governing Mansion to send forces to detect issues it found suspectable, just like what was happening to Zhou Bao here.

Even though Zhou Bao was not happy about this, he had no reason to refuse this request, unless his strength was stronger than that of Rolling Dragon King and Master Bai Luo, or he had sufficient evidence to prove that the Governing Mansion of Right-angle Bay was deliberately picking on him.

The manager of the Governing Mansion was the boss, commanding all issues regarding the Governing Mansion. Generally speaking, all the managers of Governing Mansions in the Sea Area were the strongest and most powerful demons and monsters. In places like Right-angle Bay, the manager of the Governing Mansion should at least have a cultivation at the Individual Immortal level so as to rule the others.

Also, this system was the only achievement of the Sea Emperor that Zhou Bao found very admirable. On the surface, the ruling of the Sea Area looked pretty loose. However, in a lot of aspects, the management system was much more complete than that of the Seven-deity Regions. Taking the Governing Mansion as an example, there were detailed regulations dictating its power and limits, time for patrol, and taking actions. Adding the fact that the subjects of their management were all demons, who could take care of their basic necessities of life all by themselves. The only thing the Governing Mansion needed to focus on was to maintain enough powerful martial forces in order to deter those demons who liked to defy the rules.

Hearing the manager of the Governing Mansion inviting him over, Zhou Bao felt an unbidden jolt in his heart. He was sure that this was all because the magic matrix he left in that inn gave a great shock to those local experts at Right-angle Bay. Immediately, he burst out into a laughter and said, "Now that the manager, Your Excellency, has issued the invitation to me, how dare I not comply with it. Please lead the way ahead!"

Seeing the attitude of Zhou Bao, Wan Youfu finally felt relieved. During those days, it was not easy to be a captain of a patrol squad. In the Sea Area, the more powerful a demon was, the more difficult it was to tame him. Nonetheless, demons in those patrol squads normally did not have a high cultivation. If they were patrolling other places than Right-angle Bay, where some experts were scrupulous about the hidden influence behind the Governing Mansion, they might have already lost their lives on duty for many times. Be that as it may, they still had to walk on eggshells in front of some powerful Grand Demons and Immortals in case they accidentally piss off one and get a hard time. If a powerful monster aimed to take you on, it would not be that simple as just killing you. He would have numerous means to make you suffer, which would be no better than to die. Plus, if a Demonic Immortal demonstrated great power in torturing someone but did not commit a murder, usually, the manager of the Governing Mansion would not bother to offend the powerful Demonic Immortal by attempting to bring him to justice.

Therefore, at many times, they all found themselves in an awkward position. But now, the good faith Zhou Bao had displayed allowed them to breathe a sigh of relief. Hence, the leader began to survey Zhou Bao with a much more favorable look.

"Fellow Upper Immortal, please don't worry. This time, the reason for our manager's invitation is just that the magic matrix you left in the inn is incomparably miraculous. Thus, our manager wants to befriend Your Excellency, and that's all!"

"Oh, so that's what it is. No wonder!" Zhou Bao put on an enlighted expression. In fact, all things were going as he had expected. Before refining his Outer-body Incarnation, he first let out a burst of the ferocious Demonic Qi of his Primitive Dragon Chimera to attract the attention of those experts at Right-angle Bay. Then, he set up a magic matrix that could demonstrate his achievement on formations. In this way, the Governing Mansion of Right-angle Bay would naturally take heed of him. Although many strangers had come here for the offer of rewards issued by Rolling Dragon King, all those strangers looked half-witted and their strength seemed limited. Thus, those people wouldn't be able to make waves. Meanwhile, the behavior of Zhou Bao was bluntly telling the Governing Mansion that he could make waves, really big waves. Therefore, the moment Zhou Bao appeared in the public, the Governing Mansion was bound to make contact with him. This was a natural and normal activity in the world of human beings, and so was it in the world of demons too. After all, with such an odd person appearing in its own territory, the Governing Mansion had to get in touch with him.
