Omnipotent Sage 771 Practicing the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations

Over the past 810,000 years since antiquity times, no one had ever mentioned this phrase. It seemed that this matter had slipped everybody's mind.

After all, this was the Desolate Ancient Star Area, a place that the Devil Realm would never consider invading, for the pneuma and resources in this area were as scarce as those in the Devil Realm. Even if you gifted this area to the Devil Realm, they would not accept it.

But today things were a bit different. Zhou Bao had blasted an opening in the Void Immortal Realm when undergoing his Void Thunder Tribulations. Although this opening was already closed, the willpower of the Immortal Realm had slipped through this opening and descended on the entire Void Universe before it was sealed. This exposed the location of Heaven Realm World once again, resulting in its reunion with the Void Universe. Today, the plan of forcing Heaven Realm World to return to the Void Universe was being implemented step by step. Transmitting Formations were set up one after another. Very soon, Heaven Realm World would become just like the rest of the macro worlds. After it reintegrated into the Void Universe, the next thing that would happen would be the reopening of the passageway leading to the Void Immortal Realm.

If the Devil Tribulation broke out at this point, even though it was in the Desolate Ancient Star Area, Heaven Realm World would inevitably be involved in it. When the time came, innumerable members of the Devil Tribe would come pouring in. This outcome would be too much for Heaven Realm World to deal with.

Yes, Heaven Realm World had no way to deal with this. Zhou Bao had experienced an invasion of the Devil Tribe in Eastern Thunder Sect before, so he knew perfectly well how horrible a raid from the Devil Tribe was. However, that invasion in Eastern Thunder Sect could not be counted as a Devil Tribulation at all, because it was just a common incursion made by the Devil Tribulation. When a real Devil Tribulation occurred, the Devil Tribe would tear the Void Universe apart and create countless passageways, and then they would swarm out, flooding the entire universe. Only that could be considered a Devil Tribulation.

There had been many Devil Tribulations in the Void Universe, but the last one dating back to antiquity times happened several million years ago.

In antiquity times, Immortals were everywhere. They were as common as blackbirds.

That was an era that was at the height of power and splendor. If not for the Devil Tribulation that had happened during that era, the antiquity times could have maintained its prosperity. But the Devil Tribulation made the Void Universe in antiquity times suffer a lot, especially Heaven Realm World. At last, the 99 Emperors led by Jade Emperor stood up and sealed in as many Primordial Demons as they could. They joined forces and defeated the leader of the Devil Tribe, Zhao Wuyan. That was how the whole Void Universe managed to survive the Devil Tribulation.

After that war, Heaven Realm World's power was greatly undermined. In order to recover its vigor and prepare for the next Devil Tribulation, Heaven Realm World and the rest of the macro worlds started to search feverishly for any method that could help them grow in strength. Accordingly, an intelligent group of practitioners who did not see a future in practicing, formed a band of necromancers. These necromancers focused all their energy on researching various magic weapons, which included all sorts of spiritual weapons, celestial devices, and fairy weapons. In the end, they narrowed their research down to Supreme Fairy Weapons. Of course, it was quite difficult to collect the materials for Supreme Fairy Weapons. Thus, they changed tactics and developed Highest Heaven Celestial Devices instead. Unlike normal celestial devices, these Highest Heaven Celestial Devices had boundless possibilities. It was due to the craving needs of upgrading Highest Heaven Celestial Devices to Supreme Fairy Weapons that the Necromancer's Tribulation finally occurred and resulted in Heaven Realm World going downhill. This also put an end to the entire antiquity times era.

Therefore, it all came down to the Devil Tribulation.

Considering that even the powerful Heaven Realm World back then suffered such a tragic fate under the impact of the Devil Tribulation, what more with the current Heaven Realm World that had lost 99 percent of its original strength. What kind of ending would it have should another Devil Tribulation occur?

Well, everyone knew the answer even if they were thinking with their backsides instead of their brains.

Fate Creation Boy and Ghost Child were naturally very well aware of this. When they talked about it, the relaxed conversation suddenly turned a little weighty.

It was disturbingly heavy going.

"Are you certain that a Devil Tribulation will be taking place soon?"

"No, I am not sure. No one knows what that Zhao Wuyan is thinking of!" Fate Creation Boy said, shaking his head. "Zhao Wuyan never targets the Void Universe. What he has always wanted is the Void Immortal Realm. Thus, he has remained dormant during the past 810,000 years since Heaven Realm World vanished. The purpose of monitoring the Infinite Star Sea was just to find out whether the jailed Primordial Demon is up to any little tricks; I failed to spot any so far. Well, frankly, it's all my fault!"

"You should not consider these Primordial Demons only as some sturdy monsters with big muscles. They are quite crafty. The last time the Devil Tribulation happened, a total of 108 Primordial Demons were sealed in the Void Universe. On the surface, it was the Void Universe that won the battle. These defeated Primordial Demons were merely sealed up instead of being killed. Even though they were debilitated, they were still very much aware of every single movement in the Void Universe. They may have been scheming to conquer the Void Universe for some time already. Though you're on the alert for that, you have been too arrogant and did not detect their little tricks!"

"So, it's highly possible that another Devil Tribulation will happen soon!" Fate Creation Boy had a dismayed expression on his face. "It's just a matter of time!"

"Then, what should we do?"

"What can we do? We can't do anything. The power of Heaven Realm World is now at its weakest, so we can't afford to be dragged into this again. This time, the leading player in this event can't be Heaven Realm World!"

"We're not going to be the lead role? Then, we will just be following in others' footsteps! I like that!"

Being a follower would mean they had no other responsibilities except for carrying out some easy tasks. Not every follower was as industrious as Zhou Xingxing. Although Zhou Bao shared the same surname with Zhou Xingxing, it was apparent that he was not as hard-working as the latter.

"Now that you've recovered a bit of pneuma, do you have any plans?" Fate Creation Boy suddenly brought up this topic. "Are you still going to hang around with this boy?"

"This boy is very brilliant and has exceptional good luck. Who else can I hang around with besides him?" Ghost Child cackled. "It is all thanks to him that I finally managed to recover a little!"

"Boy, are you sure you want to keep this guy around? Though he is powerful, none of his previous masters had a decent ending!" Fate Creation Boy turned to Zhou Bao with a helpless look on his face. "Don't be deceived by his power; his strength comes at a great price!"

"I know. But I've already refined his body so it's too late to get rid of him. Even if I can, under this circumstance, I still need the help of his combat capability. After all, as you pointed out, now the entire Void Universe is looking for me. If one day I need to give myself up, apart from the Black Pearl, I will need another last resort. What do you say?"

"I'll leave it to you. If you've made up your mind, then, I won't try to stop you. Just remember to be careful!"

"Fate Creation Boy, what are you saying? Yes, it's true that all my previous masters didn't have good endings. But that's because they didn't listen to my advice. If they did, they would not have died!"

"Fine, fine, let's drop this then. I have other issues to attend to. If you don't have more matters to discuss, I'll take my leave first!"

"Just go, see you!" Zhou Bao nodded.

The current Fate Creation Boy was very different from who he used to be. Now, he was the true Fate Creator, taking control of Heaven Realm World. Since Heaven Realm World was in the process of rejoining the Void Universe, the number of things he had to handle had increased. This time, he only revealed himself because he heard that Zhou Bao had returned to Heaven Realm World. Otherwise, he would not have bothered to meet anyone.

"Well, now that the one who is always reproaching me is gone, we can go home as well, right?"

"Yes, let us go back. I just announced that I will be doing a 10-year closed-door training. When I'm back, I can continue this closed-door training and try to accomplish the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations!"

"10 years? If you enter your Supreme Fairy Weapon, it will be several hundred years. That's enough for you to practice the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations. However, you must be aware that though you have built up solid strength, it's still a bit tricky for you to really master the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations!"

"I know that. Now I can only practice two Separations. As to what the third Separation will be, I still have no idea. So, I shall just practice the first two Separations."

"That's also great. Though the Primitive Dragon Chimera is not one of the Six Royals, its Black Flame used to deter the world. It's only second to the Six Royals. And your Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword is quite powerful as well. If you practice the Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword with the Immortal-slaying Sword Qi, you can produce a Primordial Sword Spirit. With the two primordial spirits, you'll be able to hold your own even when facing an Earthly Immortal. As for practicing the third Separation, I think you can put it aside for the moment. And regarding your body, I would like to make a suggestion!"

"What suggestion?"

"You've practiced the Seven Wonderful Techniques, right? If you can find an Innate Sacred Root and plant it inside your body to let it merge with your Tree of Seven Wonders, you may develop a real Tree of Seven Wonders. Only then will you be able to complete your practice of the Great Ways. Even if your third Outer-body Incarnation is a bit weak, it won't matter at all!"

"Innate Sacred Root? Tree of Seven Wonders?" At these words, Zhou Bao's heart sank. Then, with a wry smile, he asked, "How will I ever find an Innate Sacred Root?"

"Well, even in the Primordial Time, Innate Sacred Roots were extremely rare. When it comes to these times, how could there be any Innate Sacred Root left for you to discover?" Ghost Child laughed. "Forget it, just do your training first. I'm also going to refine the pneuma of the Earthly Immortal. Hee hee, that's a real treasure!"

Indeed, the pneuma of an Earthly Immortal was a great treasure. Previously, Ghost Child just sucked in the pneuma but did not fully refine it. Now he had an opportunity to digest it and regain his original strength.

Meanwhile, Zhou Bao was going to put all his efforts into the practice of the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations.

The Primordial Spirits of Three Separations was a wonderful way, but the original purpose of its development was quite simple.

The mighty being who created the Primordial Spirits of Three Separations had some experiences similar to Zhou Bao's. He also had myriads of fantastic adventures and had a varied collection of skills. But on account of the wide range of his studies, in the later period of his practice, those ways he learned did not help him to gain rapid progress but instead delayed the process of his cultivation growth and made him remain at the same level for a long time. At last, he solved this dilemma by creating the way called Primordial Spirits of Three Separations.
