Omnipotent Sage 805 The Vast Sea's First Strike

It was a city in the southernmost part of Jin and its biggest port city.

It had a very well developed shipping industry which made it the most prosperous city in the south part of Jin.

However, all this changed in a matter of a month. The Dark Sect destroyed by Zhou Bao had unexpectedly reappeared, wiping out every trace of this good city. Only a few had survived, and the place became a ghost town. When Zhou Bao arrived, because of the hot weather and his delay in getting there, the sky over the entire city was effused with a foul odor of rotting flesh.

"Damn. What the hell happened? This should all have been cleared up. What is an emperor to do?" Zhou Bao could smell the stench even a few miles away. He frowned in disgust and started to complain to himself about his worthless brother-in-law.

In any case, the Ocean City was in Jin territory. If this kind of thing had happened in his territory, as the Emperor of Jin, even if he had no power to resist, he was at least obliged to clean up the mess. Indeed, an emperor should not just ignore the situation.

Zhou Bao firmly believed this, it did not matter to him that his brother-in-law was the emperor. He had already decided to run away. He still did not know how the Heaven Realm World would be in the future. Right now it was difficult for him to protect himself, and he was not in a relaxed enough frame of mind to go and deal with other people's business.

Zhou Bao stood in the sky above the Ocean City and completely dispelled the surrounding stench. Zhou Bao did not cover up his own tracks, but scanned the entire city with a playful look in his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and he fixed his gaze on one place.

"The spirit of the Devil Tribe. It is neither weak nor overly strong. The Human Immortal state!" In a moment Zhou Bao worked out the Devil Tribe's cultivation. Without thinking about it, he patted the Furnace of Immortality on his waist.

Whatever cultivation Zhou Bao had at this point, he entrusted the Furnace of Immortality with his Second Primordial Spirit. When Zhou Bao hit it, fire lights could be seen flying up from the mouth of the furnace, becoming a huge Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield in the sky, fiercely shrouding everything beneath it.

Boom!

That poor Devil Tribe. They had not even seen Zhou Bao's figure clearly before they were killed by his Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield. The nine dragons shot flames and roared. The tribe did not have time to scream before they were turned into ashes.

The Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield had long ago exceeded the category of Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Technique. The Primordial Fire Spirit was Zhou Bao's Second Primordial Spirit, and he was now cultivating the Innate Fire-property Divine Body. When the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield was fully used, the whole thing would appear like a dark red jade carving with limitless power, already no less than that of a Taihao Fairy Weapon.

The Devil Tribe Human Immortals were completely burned away by Zhou Bao's technique. Zhou Bao, as if having something urgent to do, immediately split the hollow open beyond repair, as if he were going to leave.

At the moment he broke open the hollow, a severely cold blue ray flashed on the horizon, then came striking him between the eyebrows.

Alright!

Zhou Bao gave a low roar. As soon as he appeared above the Ocean City, he was on the alert for something abnormal. To start with he was lucky, and got things done quickly which gave the Sea Emperor no time to react and leave. But now it seemed he was too optimistic.

Since he could not get away, it was war. And Zhou Bao was not afraid to fight.

Seeing the cold, blue ray striking him straight between the eyebrows, Zhou Bao just laughed coldly, and from his finger appeared a golden light.

Bang!

A huge sound rang, and an extreme, brutal power was dispersed on all sides. In a second, the Ocean City beneath his feet was blown to pieces. A huge pit, more than ten miles deep and hundreds of miles wide stretched across the ocean shore, and roaring ocean water came surging. After a moment, the entire pit was filled. Now, there was no more Ocean City in Jin.

In the sky, a huge, simple seal floated above Zhou Bao's head, emitting faint rays. Zhou Bao's complexion was slightly more pale than before.

"The Sea Emperor. Since you have come, you might as well show yourself. No matter what, you are an Ancient Mighty Expert, ruler of the Vast Sea. Why are you so reluctant to come out?"

"So you have found out!"

Zhou Bao lowered his voice. After a second he heard a faint sigh. "This is okay, too. Act stupid to save yourself from dying".

"Yeah, right. You are the most respected of the Great Ancient Emperors. Of course, you know I am one of the legendary Tribulation Takers. My tribulations are not finished, why would I die?!" Zhou Bao smiled wryly. "As for you, the Vast Sea Emperor, you might be an Earthly Immortal, but you should be a little careful when in the middle of a tribulation. You shouldn't be so eager to get ahead, otherwise... haha!"

"You're right. Unfortunately, I am already in the midst of a tribulation so it is impossible to get out. You might be a Tribulation Taker, but you are not the only in this world. And if you die today, then you wouldn't be a Tribulation Taker anymore!"

As he was speaking, the sea below came rushing, making countless thin ropes that wound around Zhou Bao's feet.

Zhou Bao frowned a little. The Flipping Sky Seal on his head covering everything, and started pounding straight at the ropes.

Pop!

If the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield already had the power of a Taihao Fairy Weapon, then now the power of Zhou Bao's Flipping Sky Seal would have long exceeded that of a normal Taihao Fairy Weapon. The range of the seal suddenly increased to a hundred miles, like a huge shield. Not only did it block these thin ropes, but it also kept down the waters from the Ocean City. The sea water had no way of withstanding the immense pressure of the Flipping Sky Seal, and could only burst open under the ground, creating a pit several times the size of the 300-meter one already formed. In a second, dust was splattered everywhere, and the ground around the Ocean City rocked intensely as though a huge earthquake had occurred.

This time, Zhou Bao did not care so much. He raised his finger. The face of the seemingly weightless Flipping Sky Seal that had reached a hundred miles, and shrank back to its original size, floating above Zhou Bao's head.

"Interesting, interesting. Every time I use this Flipping Sky Seal it seems that its power increases. But there are still a few clever tricks I have not grasped that I might use often in the future." Feeling the simple, original spirit rippling inside the Flipping Sky Seal, he vaguely felt it to very compatible with his Mysterious Divine Light. But he could not look into it right now. The strike of the Flipping Sky Seal split open countless ropes. But it would be underestimating the Great Ancient Emperor to think that this was the only trick he had.

"Oh, so you actually managed to practice the Flipping Sky Seal to this level?" The Vast Sea Emperor was astonished to see the seal strike destroying the water ropes.

Zhou Bao seemed to destroy them quite easily. In antiquity times they had such a fearsome reputation. They were his essence of water that took a thousand years of work to successfully refine. They were hard to deal with. The ropes would wind around the Earthly Immortals in the Sea Area, and it was difficult to escape. It was the best way of entangling enemies.

He would not have thought that while confronting Zhou Bao, they would have been so easily broken by his Flipping Sky Seal.

"I forgot, you have the Real Body of Zhuyan. The nature of the Mysterious Divine Light fits easily with the Flipping Sky Seal. I had miscalculated!"

"Your miscalculation is yet to come!" Zhou Bao sneered, and he suddenly launched the Mysterious Icy Divine Light from within. He splayed his fingers, pressing violently downwards towards his feet.

He pushed his palm down, and in a moment a frigid air was gushing everywhere. The space underneath Zhou Bao's palm formed a huge blue crystal.

The Icy Divine Light!

As Zhou Bao was pressing down, he used the strength of the Icy Divine Light within himself, and in a moment, everything within a thousand miles froze over, and only a white mist could be seen along the city, reaching out towards the ocean. Everywhere it passed over, whether it was peaceful ocean or surging billows, the sea turned into ice, freezing right down to the bottom. It became Thousand-Year Dark Ice. This Icy Divine Light could not only freeze water, but also space. "Haha. Zhou Bao, you don't need that! That's not where I am, and I cannot appear. You cannot find me!" Seeing Zhou Bao's actions, the Vast Sea Emperor laughed mischievously. "If it were really that easy to find me, then I would not have been stuck here for so many years!"

"You're already trapped, but you still have to wade this troublesome water! How silly!" Zhou Bao laughed. "Did I really think the Great Ancient Emperor was this unscrupulous?"

"Okay, cut the crap. It seems you have good strength, and I have to deal with you carefully. If you don't want to die, boy, you need to be careful!" His voice dropped, and a boom came from the ocean that was frozen for a thousand miles. Zhou Bao focused his gaze and was astounded. "Fine then, create a diversion!" The Flipping Sky Seal above him flashed fiercely.

Boom!

Before the Flipping Sky Seal flashed at its brightest, a blue ray appeared in the hollow, fiercely attacking the rays of the Flipping Sky Seal.

Clap!

The Flipping Sky Seal was smashed to pieces and Zhou Bao bore a tragic expression. Under the pull from the spirit of the Flipping Sky Seal, his tendons and meridians were heavily damaged and he was knocked backward.

"Even if you are a Tribulation Taker, you are not invulnerable. Countless times in the Tribulation of Heaven and Earth a Tribulation Taker has died, boy. If you cannot get past me, then you will definitely die! As he was speaking, a huge finger suddenly appeared from the sky, pointing straight at Zhou Bao.

"If you want to see me die, you'll have to suffer it first!" Zhou Bao smiled as he careened backward. The Flipping Sky Seal might be broken, and he might be heavily injured, but he still had the Seven Wonderful Techniques, Red Centipede Mind-concentrating Skill, Dharma Power-restoring Skill, and the Immortal Body Technique, which he could use all at once. And there was also his body that had been refined in the Eight Nine Mysterious Skills and Mysterious Divine Light. While he was heavily injured, he only needed to make sure he did not suddenly die, and he could recover in a short amount of time. Seeing the finger in the sky pointing down, he just laughed while around him an immense Qi Power bubbled up. A Black Sun shadow emerged from his body, and struck the finger in the sky.

Zhou Bao's fist and the searing rays of the Black Sun collided violently with the blue finger. There was nothing fancy, just a pure contest of force.

There was a loud bang.

The blue finger was completely shattered by Zhou Bao's strike, and Zhou Bao's body was struck as if by a heavy hammer. When it was touched there was a sudden explosion under the surface of the ice, running all the way through the Thousand Year Dark Ice all the way to the bottom.
