Bang!
A loud crash could be heard in space. The Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle had slammed into a space-time storm on the peripheral of a galaxy. A strange wave of energy whizzed by.
“Eh?”
The Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle came to an abrupt halt. Moments later, Zhou Bao got out of it.
“Who are you? How dare you break through the Canglan Region!” The moment Zhou Bao appeared, he heard a cry of anger.
“Canglan Region?” Zhou Bao’s eyes flickered. He had not heard of the name before, but this place was clearly marked in the Void Map. It was the stronghold of an influence, which was smaller than average, of the Alliance of 13 Realms in the Infinite Star Sea. Located at the edge of the Infinite Star Sea, it was even worse than Yuelang Cliff in the Luosheng Realm. It had 34 animate planets and the main business here was mineral mining. The lord of Canglan Region was a practitioner at the Venerable Realm, a Five-tribulation Venerable and one of the strongest below the Lord of Heaven.
Zhou Bao had little regard for a practitioner at the Venerable Realm, but this was the man’s territory. He was a stranger here and did not want to get into trouble. Therefore, he emerged, removed the inhibition that was in place and hauled out the man who had shouted at him. It was a practitioner at the Level of True Immortality, a One-tribulation True Immortal. Since he had not undergone the second Thunder Tribulation, he could not be called a Venerable yet.
Upon seeing Zhou Bao’s ability to remove the inhibition in an instant, he looked grave, “Excuse me, you are..?”
“I’m just passing by. Since when was the Canglan Region closed? It is not accessible to everyone?”
“It sounds like you haven’t been to the Infinite Star Sea for quite some time!” Seeing Zhou Bao’s fearless expression and what he had just done, the practitioner was a little startled. But when he saw the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle behind Zhou Bao, his expression altered slightly. A knowing light flashed across his eyes and subconsciously, he lowered his head.
Just as he was about to raise his head, he suddenly felt a hand gripping his neck. He was unable to speak and could only look at Zhou Bao in horror.
“If you recognize the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle, then it’s a problem!”
Zhou Bao had seen his look when he saw the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle, and realized that he recognized the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle. Zhou Bao had stolen the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle from Yuelang Cliff’s young master Qing Chan. Yuelang Cliff was a well-known influence in the Luosheng Realm. The fact that a Lord of Heaven and a young master from Yuelang Cliff was killed could not be concealed from people. Zhou Bao had expected that the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle would be recognized, so he had planned to put it away after entering the animate planet. It had been exposed for this man to see before he entered the planet. Zhou Bao didn’t want any attention to be drawn to it so soon.
“You have a pair of sharp eyes!”
“Eh, eh—!” Held in such a tight grip, the Genuine Immortal groaned unconsciously, his eyes beseeching Zhau Bao for mercy. Zhou Bao felt something unusual from his spirit.
“You have something to tell me?” Zhou Bao slowly loosened his grip, but his eyes were still fixed firmly on the Genuine Immortal’s face.
“I, I, I, have a grudge against Yuelang Cliff!” The man stammered out these words, “I have no intention of betraying you!”
“Your words are not really convincing!” Zhou Bao grinned.
“I know where you are from. You are strangers in the Infinite Star Sea. It will be good for you if you spare me!”
“You know where we are from?”
“Yes, I know you are from the fabled Heaven Realm, which is in decline now!”
“I think I really will need you!” Zhou Bao loosened his grip on the man. At the same time, an eccentric Qi shot out from his hand and hit the man between the eyebrows. The Qi split into two, one into his Dharma power through his tendons and meridians, the other into his spirit.
Shortly after, Zhou Bao called Xiao Sheng out, withdrew the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle and entered the Canglan Region under the man’s guidance.
There were 34 animate planets in the Canglan Region. The one at the extreme edge was the Remote Red Star. This star was large and when seen through the hollow, was wholly red in color. There was life on it, but the environment was harsh and the spiritual qi there was scarce. It was occupied by the Canglan Region because of its abundant Red Scorching Ore.
Red Scorching Ore was one of the basic materials for the refining of spiritual weapons and celestial devices, so the demand for it was enormous. Most of the people in this star were ordinary people and miners made up a majority of the population. The whole planet seemed like a big construction site, with only a few towns serving as trading venues.
This Genuine Immortal, whom Zhou Bao had under his control, was named Jia Huaiyu. As a Genuine Immortal, he was an Elder in the Canglan Region. Unfortunately, he had offended Yuelang Cliff. Yuelang Cliff did not have the power to order the Canglan Region to kill their Elders, but it was easy for them to ask the Canglan Region to suppress him. As a result, the hapless Jia Huaiyu was sent to guard the most remote and unprofitable place of the Canglan Region. He had been there for 300 years. How could he not be angry?
Therefore, his focus was totally on Yuelang Cliff. He was delighted to hear that Yuelang Cliff had lost a Lord of Heaven and their young master in the Cumulus Star. This incident had shocked the whole Infinite Star Sea, though he was far from the Cumulus Star. He paid great attention to the details of the matter and knew that Yuelang Cliff had lost not only two men, but also a Highest Heaven Celestial Device.
The two men who died were not only of high status, but also of great strength. Qing Cheng was a Lord of Heaven. Even in large influences like Yuelang Cliff, there were very few Lords of Heaven. He was a strategic figure who normally wouldn’t get involved in fights. Inexplicably, he died in the Cumulus Star. This caused Yuelang Cliff to lose almost a quarter of their strength. Their vitality had been greatly weakened.
“Actually, you don’t have to worry about it. Everyone knows Yuelang Cliff has got into trouble in the Cumulus Star, but no one cares as much about it as I do and knows as many details as I do. Besides, the Silver Spirit Flying Vehicle, though precious, is not the only one. Each strong influence owns a Highest Heaven Celestial Device. As long as you remove the markings of Yuelang Cliff on this Flying Vehicle, no one will doubt you. It’s so far away from the Cumulus Star that it’s just a topic of conversation for others.” Along the way, Jia Huaiyu was very cooperative, giving Zhou Bao all the facts and reassuring him.
“Is it only because you have a problem with Yuelang Cliff that you cared so much about them and recognized us?” Zhou Bao asked, puzzled, “How do you know we’re from the Heaven Realm?”
“The happenings in the Heaven Realm is now a great event in the Infinite Star Sea, only second to the birth of the Devil Fetus. In fact, more people care about the Heaven Realm than they care about that Devil Fetus!” Jia Huaiyu said excitedly, “It was caused by a group of strangers, and it didn’t attract much attention at that time, because these strangers were not powerful, and most of them are just ordinary people who possessed good strength. But then something happened. A small school called Soul-evoking Palace inadvertently captured one of them. They are, you know, the branch of Dark Sect that captures the soul of the living. They found an unusual memory in the man’s soul; he did not come from the Alliance of 13 Realms, nor from the Milky Way Realm or the Infinite Star Sea, but from a place called Seven-deity Regions; he belongs to a school called Dragon Thunder Palace, and was a very important figure in the school. Thus he knew that the macro world where the Seven-deity Regions is located is actually the Heaven Realm that ruled all the realms in the antiquity times.” At this point, he glanced at Zhou Bao and was relieved that he did not have any particular expression on his face. Then he continued, “Soul-evoking Palace wanted to keep it a secret, but before long, their branch in the Infinite Star Sea was attacked and destroyed by a Lord of Heaven. This event was nothing extraordinary. Soul-evoking Palace isn’t a powerful school, and their lord is only a Three-tribulation Venerable. If they provoke a Lord of Heaven, there is no doubt that they will die. Moreover, this Lord of Heaven only destroyed a branch of Soul-evoking Palace in the Infinite Star Sea, and their headquarters was not damaged. However, when they heard about this, the lord of Soul-evoking Palace believed this was related to the soul they had captured, and reported it to the upper levels of Dark Sect.”
He stopped and sighed, “The upper levels of Dark Sect is like a sieve, filled with all kinds of people. This news leaked out immediately, and caused a great disturbance in the two big Star Areas and the Infinite Star Sea!”
“So now everyone knows about the Heaven Realm?”
“Yes. In addition to that, more than half the people in the Infinite Star Sea are on the lookout for those who have entered the Infinite Star Sea from the Heaven Realm and the Transmitting Formation to the Seven-deity Regions. This is because all the big sects are surreptitiously offering huge rewards for them!”
“Humph, they’re really that interested in the Heaven Realm!”
“Although the Heaven Realm has declined, being the former ruler of all realms, there are many secrets hidden there. It has been said that the secrets of the 33 Heavens are there. This is why the big sects are so positive about this!”
“Em, what happened later?”
“Later, a Lord of Heaven from Yuelang Cliff was killed in the Cumulus Star and several Genuine Immortals appeared in the Infinite Star Sea. They destroyed those schools that had captured the people from the Heaven Realm. Now, everyone in the Infinite Star Sea is targeting the Heaven Realm. The Alliance of 13 Realms and the Milky Way Realm have sent powerful Lords of Heaven into the Infinite Star Sea, and they are said to have caught a Lord of Heaven from the Heaven Realm.”
