Chapter 851: Local Bully Wang She
Zhou Bao never thought that he would run into someone that he knew in Red Flame City.
Obviously, Wang She had the same thought.
“What a coincidence, meeting an old friend from the same hometown?”
“I think so, but your sudden appearance startled me!” Wang She said in surprise.
“Bullshit!” Zhou Bao furrowed his eyebrows. “You knew that I was going to the Immortal Realm, but what are you doing here?”
“I inherited some secret skills of Divine Sense from Taoist Snake, as well as other items that were left behind. These items are all in the Immortal Realm, which is why I’m here!”
“You came through the passageway?”
“That’s right, right behind you guys!”
“After us?”
“The Devil Tribe defeated the Sea-overlooking Gate Tower and exposed the passageway to the Immortal Realm. Although they did lock it intentionally, they could not hide it from them. Besides, the Devil Tribe had other priorities in mind. They only needed to get hold of the passageway. They are not too bothered about people sneaking in. If I am not wrong, there’ll be more strangers sneaking into the Immortal Realm!”
“Sneaking into the Immortal Realm?” Zhou Bao was flustered. “The Devil Tribe really doesn’t care about that?”
“Of course not, they’re not too strict about it. As long as you have the ability to hide from them, then they’ll not care!” Wang She said, “The Devil Tribe does have strong powers in Heaven Realm World, but they’re not infinitely strong! Many old experts are still hidden in the Void Universe and they’re of the Earthly Immortal Realm. They might not be comparable to people like Marquis Wugu and Marquis Zhihai, but they all have their unique tricks. Perhaps they could launch a sneak attack, but there’s a possibility of them sneaking into the Immortal Realm.”
Zhou Bao listened and laughed.
Before coming to the Immortal Realm, Zhou Bao could not understand why the Earthly Immortals would want to sneak into the Immortal Realm. But now that he was here and had a good look around, he understood why. Only idiots would not want to come.
It was the Immortal Realm! Apart from the endless spiritual qi that filled the air here, even the Dharma esoteric located everywhere was enough to drive the Earthly Immortals crazy.
“So you followed us here?”
“I received the message from Taoist Snake’s willpower. Coincidentally, I also know the Snake-like Breath Holding Skill, which was how I entered the Immortal Realm. I didn’t expect to run into you so quickly! Oh right, what are you doing in Red Flame City?”
“I’m looking for the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique!” Zhou Bao had nothing to hide from Wang She.
“You actually came all the way here to find the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique?” Wang She could not believe Zhou Bao’s answer. His eyes widened. “This is the Red Flame River, the Red Flame City, it was only built in the past 100,000 years, how could this city have the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique?”
“How would you know that?”
“Of course I do!” Wang She rolled his eyes. “Taoist Snake has a much larger influence in the Immortal Realm than I thought, and it is definitely more than what you think too!” Speaking of which, he seemed to have thought of something and smiled bitterly. “But you can never imagine what kind of influence Taoist Snake has here!”
“What, snake?”
Although Red Flame City was a bit run-down, it was still a city after all. Like a sparrow, it may be small; but it had everything, or at least the facilities to help one to nourish himself.
There were many tribes in the Immortal Realm, but they were mostly human practitioners. Hence, they had the biggest influence here. Therefore, despite it being a small city, there were still food for the Human Tribe found in small restaurants, although it was a bit pricier.
“I would never have thought that Taoist Snake could control all the snakes in the Immortal Realm and get his information through them!
“That’s right, I have inherited all of it, which means I’m taking over the business here in Immortal Realm. Although I’m only taking over a part of it, I know much more about the Immortal Realm than you practitioners who have recently arrived.”
Taoist Snake was an old Celestial Immortal. Legend had it that when the earth was first formed, Taoist Snake evolved from the first snake in the Primordial Origin. Hence, it was able to control all the snakes on earth for its own use and use them to gather all the information across the earth.
Taoist Snake had accumulated a vast fortune and gained many connections. As his only successor, Wang She would obviously enjoy the best in Immortal Realm. No one would dare to offend him.
“Damn it, after listening to what you said, why do I feel like you’re the Tribulation Taker instead? You have a huge fate!” Zhou Bao felt helpless and jealous.
“Let it be! You’re the Tribulation Taker, how can we be the same!” Wang She said softly, “Although I have control over a portion of Taoist Snake’s power, it is far from enough. I can only understand a part of the Immortal Realm. The Heaven and Earth Secret Technique last appeared 8.4 million years ago, are you sure you want to look for it?”
“That’s right! I still have to find it even if its last appearance was 84 million years ago!” Zhou Bao sighed.
“Hehe, I forgot, you’re the Tribulation Taker and have great luck. Others may not be able to find it, but perhaps you could do it easily!” Wang She seemed to think of something and smiled, “The last news about it was from the Rock Cliff Sect, but it has been destroyed five million years ago. There are only its ruins left but you can try your luck there!” Speaking of which, he seemed to have noticed something. “What a coincidence! The ruins of Rock Cliff Sect is reopening soon, many small sects and small tribes are going there to explore, perhaps they’ll discover something. If you’re interested, I can help you get there!”
“The ruins of Rock Cliff Sect?”
Seeing Zhou Bao’s confused expression, Wang She put on a helpless expression. He raised his right hand and pointed to Zhou Bao’s mid-brow with his index finger. Following this, a mystic divine thought shot out of it.
“So that’s what it is!”
A high cultivation solved many things. There was plenty of information that could be transmitted via divine thoughts instead of saying it out bit by bit. It was fast, efficient and best of all, was confidential.
Zhou Bao had a better understanding of the Immortal Realm through this divine thought.
When he was in the Fifth Manor, Qing Feng and Ming Yue had explained to Zhou Bao about some of the trends in Immortal Realm. However, the two had been away for a prolonged period of time and had entered the Immortal Realm only recently. Hence, they had limited knowledge about it. They only knew about Jade Emperor Palace, Storm Eyes and Chaotic Poisonous Sea, the three main influences. It was just like how primary school kids knew about America and Russia only. Furthermore, their explanations were not very clear. Wang She may have just arrived at the Immortal Realm, but he had inherited the biggest information system in the entire Immortal Realm. His knowledge far exceeded that of the two stay-home males. The two only knew that apart from the three big influences, there were also some middle and small influences. However, they were not very clear about their capabilities, general distribution, differences, similarities and so on.
But Wang She knew and so did Zhou Bao now.
The Rock Cliff Sect was a middle-sized school in the Immortal Realm. There were initially more than 10 Elders in there and their cultivation were all at the Earthly Immortal Realm.
A school that had more than 10 Earthly Immortals was considered a middle-sized influence in the Immortal Realm; it could dominate a place.
However, this sect was destroyed five million years ago. Legend had it that they offended a Celestial Immortal, which resulted in its demise.
Despite it being at the brink of destruction, as a middle-sized school, the 10 plus Earthly Immortal Elders had already practiced their own macro worlds. After dying in the hands of the Celestial Immortal, these macro worlds self-destructed and fell on the site where the Rock Cliff Sect used to be. They formed another dimension and kept the whole sect and all its treasures there.
Actually, there were many schools and places like these in the Immortal Realm. For countless years, how many schools were formed and how many schools faced extinction? There were many such ruins and most of them had sunk deep down in the river of time. Only a small part of them, like the Rock Cliff Sect, could, for certain reasons, create a small opening in the alter dimension and let people in to explore.
The remains of Rock Cliff Sect were discovered more than three million years ago, which was more than one million years after its demise. The entrance would open once every 50,000 to 60,000 years. During that time, people could enter it to explore. However, it did not stay open for long, so they had to get out before the time was up. If not, they would be trapped inside for a few thousand years. Hence, explorers were usually not satisfied during their search each time, due to the time constraint.
In the case of other ruins, an Earthly Immortal would have opened the Space Passageway to the ruins quickly, eliminating the worries of others.
However, there was something special about the ruins of Rock Cliff Sect. Firstly, this alter dimension was composed of the debris of the macro worlds created by the 10 Earthly Immortals. It withheld the horrifying strength the Earthly Immortals had when they died. Secondly, there was a Celestial Immortal brand on it, left behind by the Celestial Immortal who broke into the Earthly Immortals’ macro worlds. No matter which one, these two reasons were more than enough to prevent an ordinary Earthly Immortal from opening the passageway easily. Without more than 10 of them, it would be impossible.
But where could one find 10 Earthly Immortals to join forces?
In an Earthly Immortal’s perspective, the Rock Cliff Sect was just a middle-sized school. Also, when the school was in its heyday, they never heard of any Heavenly Fairy Weapon that was of interest to them. The only Heavenly Fairy Weapon used to compress fate had long been destroyed by the Celestial Immortal. Besides, there was the risk of being destroyed by the brand when opening the passageway.
These were enough to put off any Earthly Immortal. Since it was not worth the risk, no one would be willing to do. Hence, the ruins of Rock Cliff Sect became insignificant. It ended up being a place for the small sects and influences to explore for treasures or train their disciples.
It was now time for the ruins to be opened again. Many practitioners gathered around there, ready to enter the ruins and explore.
“News of the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique last appeared more than eight million years ago in the Rock Cliff Sect. That would mean that there are higher chances of finding it there!”
“That’s right, there are higher chances of finding it there!” Wang She smiled.
