Yan Yuntian remained in the Divine Wind Palace; so did the suzerains of the five biggest sects. Ever since the Supreme Fairy Weapon first appeared, their sense of crisis had suddenly increased. They were desperately in need of something to make them feel safe. The exploration of the Infinite Star Sea became the life-saving straw. However, no one really knew what these crafty guys were secretly planning.
Zhou Bao didn't have that much pressure and was in a good mood. He had successfully diverted the attention of the people from the five biggest sects, people who might otherwise have other intentions towards him. This was a relief.
Before he could decide what to do, an unexpected visitor caught him unprepared.
"What do you think of my Wuyang Region? Isn't it wonderful? Look! The Sea-calming Palace is over there. The Immortal Palace has paid for it!" Zhou Bao pointed a large area of palaces on the Jilei Mountain out to Ji Yeyue. "If the northwest region could be regarded as well governed under my hand, then I should be good at governing the world. Don't you think?"
Looking at Zhou Bao, who was pointing vigorously, Ji Yeyue covered her mouth and chuckled. "King Wuyang you are truly awesome! You're the best in both governance and martial arts. You should have a place among the Human Emperor candidates!"
"Hahahaha, that's what I was thinking when I was in the Human Emperor Palace. But I still had a lot of things to do at home. I was too busy!"
"I know you are a busy man. I would not have come to see you today, but I had no choice!"
"Don't say that. The Wuyang Region is honored by your presence. I've been longing for you to visit!"
"That's so sweet!" Ji Yeyue shook her head and smiled bitterly. "To be honest, I do have a favor to ask!"
"What is it? As long as it's within my power, I won't refuse!" Zhou Bao said confidently, as if there was nothing he couldn't do.
"I've come here to borrow something from Your Royal Highness!"
"Borrow something?!" Zhou Bao was confused. "What do you want to borrow?"
"The trip to the Infinite Star Sea will be full of opportunities, Divine Fates and danger. I'm not powerful enough. Without a celestial device, I will probably die out there. I would like to borrow some Pure Yang Celestial Devices from you for protection!"
"I see. You're one of the people exploring the Infinite Star Sea!" Zhou Bao nodded. Everyone knew he had many treasures. In addition to the several Pure Yang Celestial Devices he already possessed, he had gathered three more from the Bigwheel Temple. It was said that even though they had been defeated in the Sea Area, he had killed a Four-tribulation True Immortal and benefited greatly. The treasures he had collected included many Pure Yang Celestial Devices. The two Pure Yang Celestial Devices he displayed in the Human Emperor-selecting Ceremony were enough to be the envy of everyone present. They were both Upper Grade Pure Yang Celestial Devices.
"You want to borrow a weapon. That's easy!" Zhou Bao smiled and added, "I have many celestial devices. Do you want to pick them yourself?"
"I'm so flattered!" Ji Yeyue was taken aback. Zhou Bao was doing such a huge favor for her, she didn't dare to ask too much. "I don't have much power. Upper Grade Pure Yang Celestial Devices would be beyond my capabilities. I couldn't give the fullest play to their functions. It would be a waste."
"Then, you mean..."
"I just want to borrow two Medium Grade Pure Yang Celestial Devices, the ones from the Bigwheel Temple. One is the Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill and the other is the Tower of Seven Treasures!"
"The Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill and the Tower of Seven Treasures!"
Zhou Bao would have forgotten about these if she hadn't mentioned them. They were among the three Pure Yang Celestial Devices that the Snow Mountain Great Wheel Temple had compensated him with. The Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill, though powerful, was much too evil and was therefore confined in the Tower of Seven Treasures. Although Zhou Bao had the power to tame it, he had never found the time; he was too busy. It was surprising that Ji Yeyue would pick these two weapons.
"I can offer you the Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill anytime you want, but not the Tower of Seven Treasures. I've been studying the Divine Sense of Buddhism and the Tower of Seven Treasures could be very useful to me!" He glanced over Ji Yeyue and continued, "I accidentally received another Pure Yang Celestial Device specifically used for defense. It is as effective as the Tower of Seven Treasures. What do you think?" He moved his fingers. A silk scarf surrounded by cyan light appeared in his hand.
"I took it from the people of the Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty when I was fighting for the Inner Elixir of the Evil Fire Kylin. It has great defense performance. If I wasn't a master in fists, I probably wouldn't be able to break through it. It is even better than the Tower of Seven Treasures in terms of defense!"
"The Green Plain Brocade!" A bright light flashed in her eyes when Ji Yeyue saw the scarf, "Did the Youxian Temple lose this celestial device?!"
"Yes, it's very effective. You can have a try!" Zhou Bao handed the scarf to her immediately.
"Wow! Thank you!" Ji Yeyue didn't refuse. She took the scarf. "Thanks so much! When I return from the Infinite Star Sea, I will come and express my thanks again!"
"Then you have to come back alive!" Zhou Bao smiled. He took out the Evil Knife Thousand Snakes Pill and wiped the evil Qi out from the sword body. "The Thousand Snakes Pill is very evil. I could have eliminated all its evil Qi, but it seems that some Divine Sense of this knife is related to it. I better not do anything until I discover all its secrets. That's why I suppressed the evil Qi for the time being. Now that you've asked for it, you should know how to handle it. It's all yours!"
Ji Yeyue took the Thousand Snakes Pill. A grateful look spread across her face. Suddenly, her expression changed. She cupped her hands, bid farewell and quickly disappeared.
"Hehe, why does she have such a reaction at the sight of my wife? Does the little beauty have feelings for me?" Zhou Bao couldn't help laughing. He rubbed his chin, turned around and asked smilingly, "Yunfei, why are you here?"
"Oh, nothing. They said you were here, and I just wanted to see if you're alright!" Yan Yunfei said. She spoke insincerely, betrayed by her expression.
"Hehe, that was not a visitor, just an old friend. Ji Yeyue, Jade Pool's proud disciple. She enjoyed a reputation equal to me once upon a time. We were among the Top Four Teen Experts of Jin. You must have heard of her!"
Seeing Zhou Bao's frank expression, Yan Yunfei was rather relieved. "The Top Four Teen Experts of Jin. I remember. One of them is my cousin. I heard his reputation in the martial arts world is growing higher and higher. Three months ago, he reached the Level Eight Expert Realm. He is among the few experts in the world now!"
"Really?!" Zhou Bao was a bit surprised. He hadn't heard about it. In recent years, his focus had been on a much higher level. He cared little about people below the Mysterious Realm, except for some intimate friends. He had never thought that guy, originally a Level Seven, would be able to become a Level Eight in just a few years.
It should be noted that only his combat capability had improved. His cultivation, on the other hand, had not progressed so quickly. After all, not everyone could be as lucky as Zhou Bao. They didn't have a macro world, a fairy weapon, and a Primordial Fierce Beast at the same time. These things were legendary for ordinary martial arts practitioners.
Now, Zhou Bao's personal contacts were all great figures above the Mysterious Realm. Some of them were even Venerables or Genuine Immortals. This was a matter of level. When he was a Level Seven, he only knew a few experts, aside from the Venerable Black Turtle. His first actual contact with Mysterious Realm experts had happened when he harassed the Mingyi School. The Mysterious Realm Individual Immortals had scared him away without even showing up.
This was strength.
He was able to acquaint himself with this many Genuine Immortals and Venerables only because his strength had reached a certain level. On the contrary, if he had not reached this level, it would be nearly impossible for him to see a Mysterious Realm expert.
Without an opportunity like his, it was extremely difficult for one to continue moving up after achieving Level Seven. The boy in the Yan Family had reached Level Eight within just a few years, indicating that he did have some strength and was worthy of the name, Top Four Teen Experts.
"In that case, your cousin is quite capable!" Zhou Bao smiled, "Have you come to see me just to tell me this?"
Looking at the teasing smile on his face, Yan Yunfei blushed with shyness. She cast a fierce glance over him. "I'm not talking to you anymore!" Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Zhou Bao grabbed her hand and held her in his arm.
"Your father is a candidate for the Human Emperor now, just as he had expected. He probably won't have the energy to be the emperor of Jin. I wonder if your Brother Prince is prepared!"
"How come you are suddenly interested in such things?" Yan Yunfei asked curiously. Zhou Bao had always been indifferent to the current events of the kingdom, no matter if there were other people around or not. He had seemed to only care about his Wuyang Region in the northwest. What was happening to him? She didn't understand her father's intention of competing for the candidate of the Human Emperor either. She only knew that it was important. Zhou Bao's interference then was understandable. But there was no need for him to care about the Emperor of Jin. Why was he suddenly interested in it?
"Nothing. I've just been interested in the Way of the Emperor recently!" Zhou Bao smiled. As he became more and more powerful, his horizons expanded and his attitude changed. He no longer turned his nose up at the throne. In fact, things like strength and birth destiny were becoming more and more mysterious to him. There seemed to be something hidden behind. He had once believed that everyone had an equal chance of becoming the emperor. But his understanding turned out to be wrong. It was impossible that as long as he had enough strength, he could do whatever he wanted. God had his own plan. Ever since the Supreme Fairy Weapon had shown up, the hostility from the entire macro world was too clear for him to ignore. He was far from able to contend against such almighty power of the weapon. This was the reason he had chosen to retreat. Otherwise, he would not have been in a rush. He should have killed Yu Taixu before everything else.
