Omnipotent Sage

A burst of laughter with evident mockery came to Zhou Bao’s ears and pissed him off, while a terrified Yan Yuntian stood not far away from Zhou Bao. He was afraid that Zhou Bao would be unable to control his emotions and lose his temper, resulting in him killing all the disciples of the Chen Family who had just burst into laughter. That would be awful.

He stared at Zhou Bao nervously and was quickly thinking about possible solutions to the problem.

However, to his surprise, Zhou Bao was just a little bit unhappy. He neither lost his temper nor showed any sign of irritation. Instead, he fixed his eyes on the Transmitting Formation again. But this time, he was not as careless as before. While he was focusing his attention on it, his mind worked quickly to analyze the lines that were engraved with the mysteries of the space. Like a work of nature, these talismans rotated in his mind.

“This is the part of breaking the void. The crystal stones in this formation must contain the Flickering Light Evil Qi or a kind of space-property pneuma that is more effective than it. it uses these stones to break the void at the moment the formation is activated!”

Zhou Bao continued to observe the formation and slowly analyzed its mysteries. While doing so, he lifted one of his fingers up and did some strokes in the air.

The laughter died away. All the people’s attention was on Zhou Bao’s fingertip now. As they watched the invisible lines he had drawn in the air, their expressions changed.

“After breaking the void, there comes the second part: the talisman formation that is used to locate the position. It does have some unique features, but I guess it’s not so difficult to determine the position because there is another fixed Transmitting Formation in the Penglai Region. Although it’s somewhat subtle and unique, it’s the lowest-grade talisman formation for locating the position, which is of little value!” Zhou Bao just thought all this in his mind at first, but as he drew the lines in the air, he gradually spoke and made sure that everyone could hear him.

While he was drawing the lines in the air, he was uttering words at the same time, as if he was sleep-talking. However, his voice possessed a penetrating power that enabled everyone to hear each of his words clearly. The most terrifying thing was that everyone could remember and understand everything he had said.

Yes, they could understand what Zhou Bao had said. At this moment, Zhou Bao was explaining the design principle of the Grand Transmitting Formation to them.

Even the one with the lowest cultivation, a Level Seven expert, could understand what Zhou Bao was saying. He had already immersed himself in Zhou Bao’s explanation.

“Oh no!” Chen Shoubai was startled as he discovered that Zhou Bao’s words seemed to have been engraved in his mind. It should be noted that the Transmitting Formation between different regions was a secret of the Divine Wind Palace. Even he, the third deacon of the ancestral temple of the Chen Family, and a person who had such a prominent position in the Divine Wind Palace, could not get to know this secret. He knew nothing about the lines of this magic formation. Only those who had a good understanding of the Law of Space could be affected by its complicated lines and suffer an embarrassing incident as Zhou Bao just did.

Due to a lack of a thorough understanding of this formation, Zhou Bao thought it wasn’t really complicated and didn’t pay much attention to it, which led him into a trap and was laughed at because of this. Maybe other people would have let out their rage, but he was different. His soft and firm personality mixed with his ability to come up with wicked ideas for revenge made him return all the ridicule to them in his own way. Those who knew nothing about the Law of Space would have no reaction when they looked at the formation, but those who had a good knowledge of it could be affected by the formation. For those who felt dizzy as soon as they saw the formation, the ones who laughed at him merely took ignorance for fun. Therefore, Zhou Bao felt it was very necessary for him to teach them how it worked so they could appreciate such a formation in the future and feel as dizzy as him.

Thus, in his voice, Zhou Bao applied a cultivation method that could shake people’s spirit. As soon as the voice spread out, it entered in their minds along with Zhou Bao’s understanding of this Transmitting Formation. The poor Chen Shoubai clearly knew that what Zhou Bao had done broke the rules and he sought to resist the voice, however, he failed to do that because Zhou Bao’s voice was rather tempting. Zhou Bao gave an extravagantly colorful description of the key points of this formation paragraph by paragraph and his description didn’t pale in comparison to Child-endowing Buddha’s skill—Lotus Flower on the Tongue, a pure spirit cultivation method. What Zhou Bao spoke out this time also included the maxim of the Law of Space. In a few words, his voice plunged all the people here deep in thought.

“Well, the skill applied in building the passageway is also good and worth studying, but there is something wrong with the hollow travel. I’m afraid that in order to seek absolute stability and safety, its speed and efficiency will be decreased. In this way, the people who are going to use the formation will inevitably bear some pressure and only those experts who have reached Level Seven and refined Gang Qi can get through such a formation. Otherwise, they would be crushed into powder before they could arrive at their destination. If this Transmitting Formation could be improved with the way of the Gold Bridge of the Sea of Bitterness in antiquity times, it would be perfect. However, it’s a pity that it had been long lost and no one in the Seven-deity Regions knows it!” There was a deep regret in Zhou Bao’s words. After he finished speaking, he directly stepped into the Transmitting Formation.

Then, he smiled at everyone in front of him.

With a blank look on their faces at the very start, these people finally came to their sense after a good while.

“Ah!”

“What’s up? What happened?”

“The Law of Space. I didn’t expect that it would be so profound… !”

“Little did I expect that I would be so lucky to have this chance to get hold of such a mysterious spatial cultivation method… !”

“I really have gained greatly this time. Such kind of cultivation method is of great help to my practice!”

After they had come to their sense, there were waves of admiration and exclamation around Zhou Bao.

Almost all of them had forgotten that they had laughed at Zhou Bao and, as they looked at him, something different could be seen from their eyes. Especially those who had just mocked Zhou Bao. They all looked quite embarrassed.

Of course, there were some people who thought they were smart. They began to fix their eyes on the Transmitting Formation under Zhou Bao’s feet after they had comprehended Zhou Bao’s explanation. But soon after, tragedies took place successively.

“Ouch!”

“Ow!”

“Plop!”

A sound similar to objects falling down started bursting around the room. Eighty percent of the people present fell down and looked as if they were drunk. Only three people stood straight; they were Chen Shoubai, Yan Yuntian, and Elder Chen. They were fine because they hadn’t looked at the Transmitting Formation.

“Zhou Bao of Yunzhou, it had never occurred to me that you would get the hang of the Law of Space. I really respect you!” Chen Shoubai took a deep look at Zhou Bao and sighed. He said nothing and directly entered the Transmitting Formation. Yan Yuntian and Elder Chen both gave a wry smile and stepped into the formation successively.

As for Chen Shoubai’s disciples and subordinates, they had not yet recovered from the impact of the formation. With their spirits being shaken and legs feeling numb, most of the people were so feeble that they could not even stand up due to the powerful impact.

“Yuanfeng, Yuangu, we’ll go first. After you two recovered, you shall send them to our destination!” Chen Shoubai created an Incantation Gesture with his two hands in the Transmitting Formation to launch it.

Zhou Bao noticed that Chen Shoubai’s hands stopped for a while as he was making the Incantation Gesture. He couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. It seemed that Chen Shoubai had been affected by him as well. He could have only made this Incantation Gesture by copying it slavishly before, but now, after Zhou Bao’s explanation, he had a very deep understanding of the Law of Space. Therefore, when he utilized this Incantation Gesture, he would inevitably recall the principle of it and feel the power it represented. Therefore, he took more time making the gesture than he used to.

“Excuse me!” Chen Shoubai was also aware of his mistake and could not help but laugh bitterly. As the Transmitting Formation shone, he said to Zhou Bao, “Originally, I had little hope for His Majesty to become the candidate for Human Emperor, but now the possibility is something to be taken into consideration. If you can defeat Senior Grand Tutor Hong, you’ll very likely obtain the position of the candidate for Human Emperor!”

“Senior Grand Tutor Hong?” Zhou Bao narrowed his eyes and added, “Do you mean Senior Grand Tutor Hong of the Li dynasty? I’ve heard of him, but I don’t know much!”

“Originally, Senior Grand Tutor Hong ought to be the Family Head of the Hong Family in the Divine Wind Palace. With a mighty power, he is equal to a Lord of Heaven. He is not only the Senior Grand Tutor of the Li dynasty but an important figure in the Divine Wind Palace as well. He failed to be the lord of the Divine Wind Palace, a position that he has contended for with Yu Taixu. His loss was not because he was too weak but because the Hong Family was inferior to the Yu family. After that failure, he renounced his family and gave up the position as the Family Head. Then, he set off for an adventure to the Li dynasty and became the Senior Grand Tutor Hong we know now!”

“You must be kidding me. The Li dynasty is a secular dynasty and I was told that anyone who has reached the Mysterious Realm could not interfere in the affairs of the secular world. Don’t tell me that the one who was qualified to vie for the position of the lord of the Divine Wind Palace haven’t reached the Mysterious Realm, will you? As you have said, he is equal to a Lord of Heaven!”

“Just like you now, Senior Grand Tutor Hong is at Level Nine. However, he has killed a Lord of Heaven. So, he is technically equal to one of them!”

“Has he really killed a Lord of Heaven? With a Level Nine Cultivation?” Zhou Bao looked affected all of a sudden and in his heart, he cursed, “What a damned terrifying talent!”

Senior Grand Tutor Hong’s strength was indeed terrifying. Zhou Bao himself had also killed a Lord of Heaven in a face to face encounter with a fairy weapon and some Highest Heaven Celestial Devices, but he had taken advantage of the geographical situation. The entire Azure Secret Area and the Jade Plate of Fate were in his possession. After a hard fight, he finally won by a neck and killed Yu Taicang. If Zhou Bao was asked to fight Yu Taicang in other places, the chances he would win were quite slim, or we could just say that he would have no chance of winning. The only way for him to survive would be to escape. He never expected that Senior Grand Tutor Hong would be so powerful as to kill a Lord of Heaven face to face with just a Level Nine cultivation. Of course, such a man was worth visiting.
