Chapter 372: Hua-er and the Whale

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

At the sight of the odd, symbolic island in the Azure Spirit Sea, Zhou Bao felt it would not be easy to find the damned whale that Green Spirit talked about.

“Isn’t there a big island there? Why does your friend live at the bottom of the sea?”

The Essential Qi Tide in the Azure Spirit Sea was more frantic than the sea surface, and it was not what Zhou Bao had imagined at all – at a certain depth, it would become calm.

“He is a bastard, not a psychopath. Who with a normal mind, will live on an island like that?” Green Spirit answered grumpily.

“That’s true!” As he thought of how strange the island was, the corners of Zhou Bao’s eyes twitched. If he had been asked to live in such a place, he definitely would not like it either.

“If he doesn’t live there, why did he cause such a scene?”

“God knows. He already did it when I first knew him!” Green Spirit shrugged his shoulders with a helpless look. “You know what, he also spends a lot of time thinking about how to improve the shape of that thing and make it perfect. Can you imagine that?”

“He’s a real weirdo. Then how did you become friends with him?”

“Don’t get me wrong, we’re not friends. I only did some business with him previously. After such a long time, I wonder if he still remembers me.”

“You’ll know when you meet. You’re a bane that can live for thousands of years, so he should remember you!” Zhou Bao said, “Maybe you can get some secrets from him regarding the antiquity times after you were sealed. For example, where did those Emperors go? And why did the Azure Heaven become the Azure Secret Area, and so on. What do you think?”

“Don’t think that it’ll be easy, just wait till we see him!”

Before he finished speaking, the surrounding surging seawater raged even further. It formed a huge water ball around the green light emitted from the Air-frozen Bead, firmly covering the Air-frozen Bead.

Then, a blast of suction appeared, taking the water ball towards the depths of the sea.

Zhou Bao’s expression changed instantly, but just as he was going to take action, Green Spirit stopped him. “Don’t move. In such circumstance, only those guys can do this!”

Zhou Bao took a glance at him, stopped and let the suction pull him and Green Spirit straight down.

The Azure Spirit Sea was bottomless, and the Essential Qi Tide was breaking out now, so it looked like the end of the world. The further down they go, the more furious the Essential Qi shockwave. Even Zhou Bao felt extremely frightened.

After an unknown amount of time passed, the suction abruptly stopped and the surrounding became calm unexpectedly. Zhou Bao was stunned and looked around strangely.

In the pitch black sea-bottom, there were countless creatures emitting strange lights floating around. The surrounding seemed quiet and peaceful, with no trace of Essential Qi Tide. Looking up, Zhou Bao found that the Essential Qi Tide was still raging about 100 feet above his head. They were only 100 feet apart, but it felt like two different worlds.

These peculiar creatures on the sea floor were stunning and had great strength. They were even more powerful than a Level Nine expert. However, they seemed to have no spiritual intelligence. Moreover, their strength was powerful enough in the temporal world, but in such a strange world, they were not that powerful, so they were very quiet.

With his abnormal eyes and the shimmer of the bottom of the sea, Zhou Bao finally saw the panorama of the sea floor.

This was an undersea mountain range. It seemed to have been made entirely of a special kind of Spiritual Stone which was full of strange energy. One small grain of sand from the mountain would be invaluable in the temporal world. Zhou Bao only took one glance, and then all his attention was attracted to a large, dark cave in the mountains.

The large cave was so deep and so wide that no one knew where it led to. But Zhou Bao knew that the power that brought him here came from the cave. And while looking at the cave, Green Spirit was clearly shocked and stared at the hole for a long time without a word.

“How many years have passed? I don’t know! But nothing has changed here!” He muttered to himself in a subtle manner. Then he took a deep breath and exhaled as if to calm his agitation. Suddenly, his fat body was shaking.

“Damned whale, your old friend is here! Is it funny to hide in the cave? Come out!”

“Eh?” There was a cry of surprise from the cave. Though it was only a gentle sound, the powerful shock it produced still thundered and mingled in Zhou Bao’s ears.

“Old friend? Funny, after so many years, I would have an old friend come to visit. Hum, it’s true. I do feel a touch of familiarity from your spirit, but who are you?”

“That’s really funny! When did you become so cautious?” Green Spirit’s expression gave a slight change. “Think about it. Who brought you so many living animals? Who interceded with the Great Emperor to forgive your stupid mistakes? And who fought with you till death?”

The cave was silent. After a long time, a long sigh came from the cave, “You’re not dead? Hua-er?”

“Puff…” Hearing the name, Zhou Bao lost his breath and turned to Green Spirit with a very eccentric look.

Green Spirit remained the same expression, just nodded gently. “Yes, it’s me! After so many years, time brings great changes to the world. It’s very kind of you to remember me!”

“I didn’t expect you to get the Origin of the Great Ways of the Azure Secret Area eventually!” There was a feeling of helplessness in his loud voice. Subsequently, Zhou Bao felt a wave of space fluctuation around him, and along with the Air-frozen Bead, he and Green Spirit were moved to another strange space by a powerful force.

It was a quiet empty space with not a single drop of water.

“This is so troublesome! I’ve just transformed. And before I have time to do anything, you’ve come!” The voice was still majestic, loud and deafening. Even Zhou Bao had to drive his Real Essence to protect himself, or he would be badly hurt by the sound alone.

“Your void reconfiguration is much better than before. But there’s one thing you got wrong. The Origin of the Great Ways isn’t in my hands, but in his!” Green Spirit shrugged and pointed at Zhou Bao.

As soon as Green Spirit finished speaking, Zhou Bao felt an invisible big hand break through his Air-frozen Bead and grab him forcedly.

Zhou Bao was startled and tried to shake off the invisible big hand with all his strength, but the hand was like a metal spade and did not bulge at all.

“This boy is not powerful enough. It can’t be him!”

“Damn you!” Now Zhou Bao was thoroughly enraged. With a flash between his eyebrows, a stray of black and red Sword Qi shot out, hitting hard on the invisible force that bounded him.

Rustle!

“Oh, you do have some moves!” The Yin and Yang Heavenly Sword Qi hit the invisible force. The force paused for a while and immediately loosened. “But only with these capabilities, there’s no way you could get the Origin of the Great Ways. By the way, Hua-er, where did you get this clumsy, ugly body? It seems that your taste is as bad as ever!”

“All right, cut the crap. Have you finished the transformation? If finished, show up! Do you think I would like to come to your damp, smelly nest?”

“That would be best. You are not welcomed here!”

A crystal blue light streaked across, and the space was lighted up as bright as the day. However, the surrounding was still empty without any decoration.

Zhou Bao really could not understand how it was the residence of such a powerful living creature.

After the blue light flashed pass, a huge figure appeared before them. He was nearly 20 feet tall, fat, and dressed in a blue gown. He looked very strong, but gave people a weird feeling. His fat and bulky appearance was worse than that of Green Spirit.

His whole body was full of a very powerful spirit that even Zhou Bao was frightened of.

When the man appeared, he did not look at Zhou Bao, but stared at Green Spirit for a moment instead. He then laughed, “Hua-er, you’re getting weaker now, and I can blow your penis off with one hand!”

“You can try!” Green Spirit stretched his fat head forward, and also brought out the Air-frozen Bead. He then turned around to Zhou Bao, “Put the Air-frozen Bead away. It doesn’t work here!”

Forcing a smile, Zhou Bao withdrew the Air-frozen Bead. His body was suspended mid-air. He watched as the two old friends, who seemed to have not seen each other for hundreds of thousands of years, almost break out into a fight.

“Well, old buck, I don’t want to fight with you the moment we meet. Come on, what are you doing here? No matter who in the two of you have mastered the Origin of the Great Ways, you should not come here to fight with me!” They looked at each other for a moment, and the man shrugged. “Especially you, Hua-er, you never go to the temple for nothing. Although we haven’t met for a long time, I don’t think you can change this bad habit.”

“Yeah, I can’t change this bad habit. This time I’m looking for you to do a favor, or a deal!”

“Tell me!”

Green Spirit did not hide, and soon told him all that should be told.

“How about that? As long as you let those who have passed the Thunder Tribulation stay put and not come out to mess up and cause suspicion, he will definitely try to move your Original Spirit out of the Origin of the Great Ways when he is powerful enough!”

“Over 270,000? You meant there are over 270,000 living creatures in the Azure Heaven that have passed the Thunder Tribulation and achieved the Body of True Immortality?!”

“Yes, is anything wrong?”

“No, it’s just that it’s a large population, and I can’t manage it myself!” The strong man shook his head. “Besides, I’ve just transformed, and my power is unstable. I may not be able to help. As for my Original Spirit, don’t bother, just leave it with you. See you later!”

Having finished speaking, he did not give Zhou Bao and Green Spirit the chance to speak again but moved them directly over to the Azure Spirit Sea along with a wave of space fluctuation.
