Chapter 548: Self-world

Self-world!

This was the standard to enter Eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven Realm. After going through six Thunder Tribulations, one would have an extremely deep understanding of the Dharma between heaven and earth. However, alongside with the sixth Six Directions Thunder Tribulation, the body would change drastically. The most important change was in the eyes. By then, the eyes would be capable of seeing the spatial flows clearly. Although it would not allow one to understand the Great Way of Heavens and Realms as well as Zhou Bao, one could derive the spatial Dharma based on what they saw. They could also collect the broken spatial pieces from the hollow. The luckier ones with higher cultivation may even collect big pieces of spatial slits and integrate those into their own Gang Qi. Refining Law of Space into their own Gang Qi could get them the Gang Qi of Law of Space, which would be much stronger than normal Gang Qi. Refining Law of Space was the biggest difference between Genuine Immortals who had passed six Thunder Tribulations and those who had only passed five. This was why they were called Lord of Heaven after the sixth tribulation. Lords were the kings of heaven. In the space they refined, they were the kings, hence they were called Lord of Heaven. Once one fully understood and comprehended the Dharma of space, they could accept the seventh Thunder Tribulation, Evil Thunder Tribulation. In the thunders, they would understand the spatial Dharma. They would also receive the broken time pieces. They would integrate into the flow and supplement the original space, creating a real world. The Gang Qi would evolve into the essence pneuma of this world. After being forged by the Eight Trigrams Golden Thunder Tribulation, space and time would become one to form Self-world. That would be an Eight-tribulation True Immortal, Lord of Heaven Realm.

Once the Self-world was cultivated, the Gang Qi surrounding the body would evolve into an endless space. It would provide protection when dealing with someone of lower phase without him having to do anything. The person would be sucked into this spatial turbulence where there was no way out.

Hence, with a cultivation of Lord of Heaven, even if it was a Six Tribulations one, even a Venerable would not be able to defeat him. Regardless of how many Venerables joined the fight, they would all be sucked into the broken spatial pieces. Even if this Lord of Heaven remained at the Six Tribulations forever, one would spend the rest of his life lost in the endless spatial pieces. By the time he reached Seven Tribulations, the flood of time will flow into the space. The Lord of Heaven would control his own time. With just a little effort, he could make two hours in the outside world become a hundred years, or even a thousand. You would die in it.

For someone whose cultivation has reached the level of Lord of Heaven, numbers were just a joke when facing people of ranks lower than him.

This was also why Senior Grand Tutor Hong was so confident when facing Zhou Bao. He was an Eight-tribulation True Immortal. His Self-world was already complete. He had all the time, space and pneuma in the area surrounding his body. No matter how many Venerables he ran into, with just a sway, he could trap them till death in his Self-world. Zhou Bao could not even reach Mysterious Realm, how could he be respected as an opponent by him?

But both parties had not expected Zhou Bao’s punches to be so hard, as his phase and cultivation were not advanced. His punches were not only hard, they were strange too. He delivered immortal punches, and his body was as strong as a Lord of Heaven. Most importantly, his fist intent was strong and full of substance. It literally destroyed Hong Taihe’s protection. He had closed the distance between Individual Immortal, Sage, and Venerable. He had gained the upper hand just like that, shocking many people.

“Hundreds of years of reputation has been destroyed just like that!”

Yu Taixu and Senior Grand Tutor Hong held grudges against each other. But looking at this situation, they could only sigh and feel genuinely sad. As the old Chinese saying went, “The young will replace the old”; the ‘young’ would die today, and that would be Senior Grand Tutor Hong.

This was already obvious to a bystander like Yu Taixu; it would be even more glaring to the two opponents. Senior Grand Tutor Hong had already lost his stability and generosity, he had become bad-tempered.

Things had already gone out of hand and he knew that he was doomed. He was going to die in the hands of a young man…

Even though he was the one who had made Emperor Yang a candidate for Human Emperor, he no longer had the chance to fight with Yu Taixu. Furthermore, whether or not he would win was still unknown, because Zhou Bao was giving him too much stress.

After a close fight with Zhou Bao, he realized how formidable Zhou Bao’s close combat skills were. His fists were so scary, and his fist intent unfathomable.

One by one, spaces fell apart from the impact of his fists. They reformed and broke repeatedly. They were not even able to reform completely. Everytime he suffered a punch, his protection was weakened by a level and his internal Dharma power diminished. His Dharma power had already been half-depleted. His muscles and bones were becoming weary too. Unlike him, the young man in front of him was still happily going at it with that pair of fists that looked like White Jade. They looked like an art piece, but when fighting, they were vicious. There was a wide variety of moves and all of them were powerful. Most critically, every now and then, his strength would abruptly increase ten-fold.

What kind of a concept is that?

Each punch of Zhou Bao’s that met with his was not weaker than his. Suddenly, his fists were ten times heavier, which was equivalent to ten times of an Eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven’s full shot. If he had not only cultivated the Self-world but also wore a defensive Pure Yang Celestial Device treasure coat and own several defensive weapons, with ten times the Critical Hit, he would have been injured severely.

How could this be accomplished by a Level Nine expert?

This kind of monster was nowhere seen hundreds of years ago!

“Damn it, a set of old bones, old elbows and old legs, how dare you waste my time. If I don’t tire you out I won’t be a Zhou!” Zhou Bao thought harshly in his mind. Fighting until now, he also felt that the other party was tired out. Deep in his heart, he was smiling coldly.

Tiredness was non-existent to him.

After absorbing the scary recovery ability given to him by the skeleton of the Innate Deity, the bloodline in Demonic Ape Zhuyan lifted his recovery ability to the maximum. The Dharma Power-restoring Skill boosted his Internal Qi Dharma power. In such a situation, whoever dared to fight a long fight with Zhou Bao closely, was trying to die.

Even though his fists were still unable to give a critical hit to Senior Grand Tutor Hong who had cultivated a Self-world, his threat was becoming bigger gradually.

If not for the fact that Senior Grand Tutor Hong had cultivated the Self-world, if it had been another Seven-tribulation True Immortal or a Six-tribulation True Immortal, the battle would already have been over.

“Are you not gonna use your last move? If you don’t, it’ll be too late!” Zhou Bao used the Three Realms Division and continually shifted his location. His insidious fists threw punches from all sorts of angles. He might as well have punched a hole in his ass. However, he did not dare to punch him to death. It was not because he was scared of the Hong Family coming after him. Instead, he knew that with Grand Senior Tutor Hong’s identity, position and power, it would be impossible for him to not have a secret weapon. Hence, he kept his guard up, preventing Senior Grand Tutor Hong from being too anxious and pulling it out. He was risking the possibility of there bring two casualties and him tanking it all. That would be not beneficial at all. Right now, the situation was beneficial to him. Hence, he was not in a rush, but waited patiently for Senior Grand Tutor Hong to get mad.

Indeed, once he hit again, Senior Grand Tutor Hong could no longer tolerate it. With a whoosh, his body moved backwards violently, trying to escape from Zhou Bao. Before that, he did try to do this several times, but had always failed. Zhou Bao had already played Three Realms Division to the extreme, he was not someone one could escape from. But this time around, things were different. When he was moving backwards, a golden shadow appeared in front of him and blocked Zhou Bao’s continuous attacks.

Puppet, a golden puppet. Golden spatial waves were coming at Zhou Bao.

“A puppet of Lord of Heaven Realm?!”

This was a puppet that was 30 feet high. It looked like it was made of pure gold and its gaze could not be more alive. It did not look like a puppet at all, but an expert with consciousness. Its surrounding skies were also very strange. It was shining golden light. Countless time spaces were shining endless golden light. It was very sharp. The brightness increased according to the puppet’s actions. Eventually, the puppet seemed to have become a small sun. Zhou Bao felt his vision being affected; there was no doubt that it was producing the same effect in others.

This was not even it. The golden puppet was skilled at saber technique. Once it appeared, it was holding a weird short blade. Without doubt, that blade was not only a Divine Weapon, but also a Pure Yang Celestial Device. That golden puppet was smooth in its moves. His sleek moves with his saber caused bright light to shine everywhere. He then rushed towards Zhou Bao. Zhou Bao’s fists and body were strong and his Eight Nine Mysterious Skill was amazing, but he was not impervious to knives. Once he saw the puppet play with its knife, he began to start flash hiding. In the midst of that, Senior Grand Tutor Hong made his move. He was going to join hands with this Lord of Heaven Realm level puppet to bring Zhou Bao down.

While this looked ugly, it was better than dying in Zhou Bao’s hands.

“Hong Family, hehe, Hong Family, Senior Grand Tutor Hong, your thousand-year reputation is going down!” Seeing the situation, Child-endowing Buddha started to whistle. This embarrassed the Hong Family but they were not in a position to rebuke him, so they could only stare at him in fury. Child-endowing Buddha did not bother about them and stared back.

Over at another side, Zhou Bao, who had been sandwiched by Senior Grand Tutor Hong and the puppet, started to counterattack. His body moved here and there and he managed to escape from them. He then disappeared.

Yes, he disappeared completely. He left the other two bewildered. They could only look at each other helplessly.

This fella, had he escaped or was he waiting for the perfect chance to launch a surprise attack?
