Chapter 633: Kill One to Warn A Hundred
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
The Heavenly Thunder here was extremely weird!
Looking at the thunder, Zhou Bao was astonished. He secretly doubted that the clouds were connected with the legendary Thunder Tribulation Heaven causing the Heavenly Thunder to appear.
Compared to other restless people, he was not worried. With the fairy weapon to protect himself, he didn’t care how much thunder there was. Looking at the colossal palace again, he found it very quiet. No one had even made it inside.
“Damn! Should I take the lead or take a wait-and-see approach?” Zhou Bao wondered to himself. It was true that he could go into the palace any time he wanted, but the pros and cons of being the first to go inside were still uncertain. There was a chance he might benefit greatly. There was also a possibility he could die.
“Okay, I can wait for a while until Administrator Zhang comes down.” Zhou Bao made up his mind. Although he wasn’t sure whether Administrator Zhang would come or not, he thought there was some possibility. Since the Thunder Emperor’s palace was somewhat of a treasure-house, Administrator Zhang had to be interested.
As expected, Administrator Zhang didn’t disappoint and soon appeared. After a few breaths, he drilled into the space.
Apparently, he hadn’t expected the space to be strange. He was struck by lightning as soon as he came out. After a strange cry, countless silver tentacles poked out from the hollow behind him and formed a huge silver net protecting him firmly and thoroughly.
However, although his huge net was robust, it would very likely be destroyed under the influence of Heavenly Thunder.
Zhou Bao smiled and flickered slightly but he was caught by the green light of the Green Bamboo Stick next to him.
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
The power of Heavenly Thunder immediately came into effect. With a bang, countless Heavenly Thunderbolts formed together and hit against the rays of cyan.
The smoke-like and fog-like cyan kept churning but never collapsed. Rather it looked more and more efficient.
“It’s a fairy weapon! How could it be a fairy weapon!”
“Who is that guy? Why does he have a fairy weapon to protect him?”
“It really is a fairy weapon. He looks like Administrator Zhang’s bodyguard. How is that possible? The octopus doesn’t even have a fairy weapon!”
“Indeed, it is quite strange. How did the guy with the fairy weapon come about?”
Zhou Bao sheltered Administrator Zhang under the green light without hesitation and didn’t care about the Heavenly Thunder attacking him. The Demonic Immortals from the Sea Area had fully figured out the Green Bamboo Stick in his hands. Out of greed, they kept staring at it, wishing they could go and snatch it.
And they knew by now that Zhou Bao’s being safe and sound could be completely attributed to the Green Bamboo Stick. His cultivation was that unfathomable; he was below anybody among them.
They would have rushed over and snatched his fairy weapon. However, they did not dare to behave recklessly now and had no alternative but to stare at Zhou Bao with envious eyes.
In the face of so many eyes, Zhou Bao said with a wry smile, “Administrator Zhang, let’s go into the palace first, shall we? It’s very uncomfortable to be watched by so many eyes.”
“All right!”
Administrator Zhang had also noticed the greedy eyes around him.
Zhou Bao had changed his form and appeared as his bodyguard. Others may not have known all his ins and outs, but they could recognize him. They got away, but the annoying thing was that nobody knew what these guys would do to get the fairy weapon.
At the thought of the endless trouble that might arise in the future, the conqueror of the sea looked extremely seedy. Hearing Zhou Bao’s call, he nodded without hesitation.
“There are only a few people. Damn! Before we leave, I’ll have to kill them all so that they won’t bother me anymore.” Administrator Zhang’s small grey eyes flashed angrily.
Zhou Bao didn’t have time to care about Administrator Zhang’s thoughts. After hearing his approval, he didn’t delay, and a green light skimmed into the palace.
At this moment, everyone else got into a flap.
There had been quite a few people, but none of them could make their way into the palace. Actually, it was not a big deal for them to waste time under the sky of thunder and lightning, but one of them had unexpectedly broken into the palace. Although they were aware of the danger in palace, some people thought the first one would get all the benefits. So Zhou Bao’s action was like igniting a stick of dynamite, motivating all the Demonic Immortals in the square to take action. Several lights began to flash, gathering into a cluster of colorful brilliance.
Sure, all of this came at a price. Zhou Bao witnessed three Demonic Immortals die under the Heavenly Thunder. There cultivations had been lower, they had only gone through Six Tribulations and couldn’t keep up under the constant attack of Heavenly Thunder.
There was no barrier in the palace, so neither Zhou Bao and Administrator Zhang nor the Demonic Immortals encountered trouble and all of them managed to get into the palace.
Unlike the thunder that pervaded everywhere outside the square, when they entered the palace, they felt a cool and refreshing air. The previous sense of scorching and irritation had vanished.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but soon the atmosphere became weird.
It was an extremely spacious palace. Both its length and width exceeded thousands of meters, revealing a dense and majestic atmosphere.
The floor was white jade, and each tile engraved with exquisite motifs. These patterns seemed only to be decorated rather than to act as talismans. And all the motifs were grouped together, forming into a huge design, like a landscape of a shrinking world. When they looked up, they saw that the three-hundred-meter high roof was also full of decorative patterns, composed of clouds and rain. In the picture, a high-crowned immortal looked inspiring and impressive. Lightning flashed between his hands, turning it into endless thunderbolts and spilling it onto the ground.
“Is this the legendary Thunder Emperor? He seems to have a good momentum, but there is nothing special about it.” Zhou Bao thought. He suddenly noticed that everyone was looking at him.
“Haha, Administrator Zhang! You’re really somebody! What kind of history does your bodyguard have? Why the hell does he have fairy weapon? It really makes me jealous,” said a Demonic Immortal shrouded in black fog, revealing a greedy tone.
“Haha, it’s you! Administrator Tu! Why do you have a fog? Aren’t you afraid I will kill you? Don’t worry! You can’t go out because I’ll kill you right here!” Administrator Zhang laughed in a strange way, and eight silver tentacles appeared behind him. They suddenly flew toward Administrator Tu and wrapped around him.
“How dare you!” Administrator Tu glared at the blue octopus without saying a word. With a long cry, his body turned violently. A large cloud of smoke rushed out, spinning the eight tentacles into a lump. Zhou Bao took action immediately. With malicious eyes, he appeared to the right of the smoke. The Green Bamboo Stick in his hand had been replaced by a small green hammer which slammed into the black smoke.
“BANG!”
With a loud bang, the thick smoke turned into an entity. The black-clothed man was blasted away fiercely. His seemingly strong body was shattered to pieces, melting into a blood fog and fading away.
“HISS!!!”
Everyone in the palace gasped at the ghastly sight before them. Even Administrator Zhang was astonished.
Although he had behaved maliciously, he was not sure that he was able to kill Administrator Tu. What surprised him was the way Zhou Bao killed him with his hammer with no mercy. Such a living Lord of Heaven smashed into pieces, simple and cruel.
However, it was also this simple and cruel means that astonished and terrified all the witnesses.
“Where the hell did this guy come from? How can he be so powerful?”
“How is it possible? I reckon his cultivation is less than a Genuine Immortal. How is it possible to kill a Lord of Heaven with a hammer?”
“Yes, it’s impossible! He must be hiding his cultivation, right?”
For a while the identities were hidden in the palace, but several acquainted Demonic Immortals communicated with other each in their mind and became more scared when they looked at Zhou Bao.
A hint of cruelty flashed through his eyes. The reason he had struck to kill with no mercy was to subdue the other Demonic Immortals in the temple. He also saw that these people had a strong desire for the fairy weapon in his hands. And they didn’t turn their nose up at his cultivation. If he was not able to subdue them in one blow and make them fear him, then this trip to the Thunder Emperor’s palace would inevitably lead to a lot of unnecessary trouble.
He decided to apply thunderbolt means to show his real strength. He needed to make them fear before he could rest assured.
“Hmm, it’s a Lord of Heaven who just went through Seven Tribulations. He can’t even stand my hammer. How dare he challenge the Administrator? He must be suicidal!” he said with a cold snort. He went behind Administrator Zhang, trying to project a humble and loyal image.
“Haha!” Administrator Zhang forced a smile to his lips. He was in a complex mood and didn’t want to say anything more or see these Demonic Immortals. He just looked to the deep tunnel leading to the rear of the house.
There was nothing worth clinging to. If one wanted to get benefits, he had to move on. But no one knew where those deep passages would lead and what danger was waiting for him.
