Chapter 424: Merging

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

This newly coming-into-being Fierce Beast Zhuyan that was on the point of hatching had been devoured by Zhou Bao’s Dragon Chimera Fire. Now, the Dragon Chimera Fire strengthened greatly, and could even condense into the Real Body of Zhuyan, which was like the Heavenly Devil Real Body of Great Dark Lord Du and Dark Lord Mie Chen, after its complete absorption of Zhuyan’s life essence and spirit. When Zhou Bao fused this Real Body with the body, he could enjoy the peerless power of the Primordial Fierce Beast.

Of course, it was an ideal situation, which would happen when everything went well. But how could there be such a good thing?

Was he really the son of God? Was the treasure that Lan Shui’er had painstakingly nurtured for 150 years destined for him?

Was this possible? No way!

Lan Shui’er had been waiting for an opportunity. As a Demonic Immortal in the Sea Area, she ranked more than 9,000th. Given the vastness of the Sea Area, which was far superior to the Seven-deity Regions, and the rich resources of the sea, it was a miracle to be able to make such a ranking among the hundreds of millions of living creatures.

Besides, she was also the Island Owner of Tusk Island, the first region of the 18 Dragon-bone Regions. How could she be easy to deal with or be the one destined for the benefit of Zhou Bao?

150 years ago, she was too confident, thinking that she had a spiritual connection with the egg of the Primordial Fierce Beast and her strength would be greatly increased when it hatched, so she willingly spent 150 years. Now it turned out she had been cheated. After the initial anger, she calmed down and looked on, watching Zhou Bao’s performance, or rather, his Demonic Fire’s performance.

If she was alone, upon knowing the giant egg was lying to her, she would break it immediately, absorb all of its life essence and energy, and refine its spirit to strengthen herself, as what Zhou Bao’s Dragon Chimera Fire had done.

However, Zhou Bao had already done all this, and a good job at that as well. That Demonic Fire not only devoured the essence of the giant egg, but also took in its whole spirit and made a Real Body, which made Lan Shui’er considerably eager. She did not know the Dragon Chimera Fire, but she should know it was terrific. “If I kill Zhou Bao, take this strange flame along with the Real Body of Zhuyan, I might be able to undergo nine times of Thunder Tribulations at a time, and even become a Human Immortal!”

Yes, a Human Immortal!

Once this Primordial Fierce Beast Zhuyan came into being, it had the body comparable to a Human Immortal, and possessed the power to compete with Human Immortals.

As long as the Real Body of Zhuyan and her body were united, she could undergo the Thunder Tribulation. How could she miss such a good chance? Since she did not have the means to condense the Real Body of Zhuyan like Zhou Bao, she did not act just now. If she had absorbed it, her Dharma power would have been dozens of times thicker at most, but it would not have been absorbed as much as Zhou Bao’s.

This was Zhou Bao’s Real Body of Zhuyan, a Human Immortal body!

It was a good thing that was hard to come by for thousands of years.

Now, in her eyes, Zhou Bao was no different from a delicious Christmas dinner, except that she was not drooling.

Zhou Bao, of course, noticed the danger. However, now almost all of his Internal Qi had been converted to the Dragon Chimera Fire, except those he got from the graveyard of the deity, so he could not use a single ounce of golden energy.

Even at this point, he still could not use it. He sensed that she was stirring, and could conjecture that she intended to strike at him in the instant that his Real Body of Zhuyan condensed, because at that time his Demonic Fire consumed the biggest, and his resistance was weakest.

At least, that was the theory.

The Dragon Chimera Fire was raging, and Zhou Bao’s eyes gradually narrowed into slits. Layers of Dharma power began to jump around her, slowly gathering in her hands.

“Ready to act?” Zhou Bao could feel Lan Shui’er’s murderous intent explicitly. “Island Owner Lan, don’t forget your oath!”

“My oath is for you to help me to hatch this Primordial Fierce Beast’s giant egg, not you to swallow it up. Now that you have swallowed up my thing, I will swallow you up. That’s not against the oath!” Lan Shui’er smiled grimly and looked at Zhou Bao as if he was food. “I can’t believe I really underestimated you. Your Real Essence has such formidable intelligence, and you can even easily devour a Primordial Fierce Beast like Zhuyan, and condense the Real Body of Zhuyan!”

“This is just an accident! Island Owner Lan, I don’t want to hurt our harmony!”

“When you devoured my stuff, you’ve hurt it!” Lan Shui’er said lightly, with a more intense killing intent.

Not daring to be careless, Zhou Bao slightly launched his divine thoughts, a thin layer of cyan light flickering around him.

“A Pure Yang Celestial Device?” Lan Shui’er frowned as she felt the chill of the cyan haze. She did not expect this guy in front of her to be so difficult — he not only had the odd Demonic Fire, but also a magical Pure Yang Celestial Device. “Do you think I can’t handle you when you have the protection of a Pure Yang Celestial Device?”

“Whether it’s true or not, go through this first!” Zhou Bao smiled faintly but his body became weak. Behind him, the Real Body of Zhuyan finally took shape, and his Demonic Fire vanished.

Lan Shui’er sneered and flashed violently. In the next second, she was in front of Zhou Bao, and regardless of Zhou Bao’s Poison Cold Shield, she went straight to his chest with five bent fingers and surging Dharma power.

“Hiss!” There was a piercing, grinding tearing sound. Lan Shui’er’s five fingers actually went straight through the protection of the Poison Cold Shield. Promptly, the endless chill and terrifying virulence were launched and rushed to her right hand.

With a slight pause, a layer of blue Dharma power covered her hand.

“Your celestial device is awesome, but unfortunately, it can’t stop me without your Real Essence, since I’ve undergone four Thunder Tribulations and my Dharma power is remarkably pure after the purification of the Heavenly Thunder.”

“Maybe!” Zhou Bao’s eyes flashed with a red light, and so did the area between his eyebrows.

An acute sense of crisis instantly flowed through Lan Shui’er. Her right hand that was about to hold Zhou Bao’s heart stopped and retracted. Then after a bang, she disappeared in front of Zhou Bao.

Swish!

Almost at the moment of her disappearance, a black and red Sword Qi carrying understated murderous intent shot out of between Zhou Bao’s eyebrows.

The Sword Qi penetrated the stone chamber and cut a big hole in the huge stone wall of about 60 feet thick, as if cutting tofu. Immediately, the whole stone wall was completely annihilated in the violent killing intent.

The stone wall disappeared, and the surging water poured in. It turned out that the stone chamber Lan Shui’er built was in the deep sea.

Zhou Bao’s Real Body of Zhuyan had reached the Basic level, but he still could not control it at will. However, in such a deep sea, he was in no mood to take it slowly. With a violent jerk, he forced the Dragon Chimera Fire into his body.

“Ah!” Zhou Bao screamed. The Dragon Chimera Fire had been absorbed into his body, but the Demonic Fire that had condensed into the Real Body of Zhuyan was more than 100 times stronger than it was at the beginning. After it entered, Zhou Bao’s tendons and meridians were shattered in an instant on account of its shock.

“Damn it, damn it!” Zhou Bao cursed in a low voice and regulated his breathing. Thankfully, he had his Poison Cold Shield. Otherwise, he would have been seriously injured by the deep sea pressure. Even so, he still dared not be unwary.

He was in the deep sea, and he was wounded and was at his weakest in strength, while Lan Shui’er was like a fish in water. Actually, she was indeed a big fish spirit.

As expected, when the water filled the space, everything changed.

The stone chamber was not very large, mainly for the preservation of the giant egg of Zhuyan. Soon, it was completely submerged.

At this time the change occurred, the water became active and alive. The current around Zhou Bao created a huge amount of pressure, and pushed toward the Poison Cold Shield.

The Poison Cold Shield was a Pure Yang Celestial Device, but in such a deep sea, it was not easy to deal with additional pressure. Because of mind linking, Zhou Bao naturally knew that it was about to reach its limit of defense.

Zhou Bao felt a headache now. He practiced pure Spiritual Energy of Fire, which meant that the power he could display in the deep sea was limited, and obviously, Lan Shui’er practiced the Spiritual Energy of Water, which suggested that for her, the bottom of the sea was like a paradise, and her power could get twofold results with half the effort.

No matter what, he had to get out of here first. Otherwise, he would die without knowing why. With this in mind, Zhou Bao drove the Poison Cold Shield upward. On one hand, this could reduce the pressure on the Poison Cold Shield. On the other hand, he could get out of this damn place. As long as he left the bottom of the sea, even in the sky, Zhou Bao would not be afraid of Lan Shui’er.

However, how could Lan Shui’er let him get away?

The water in the bottom of the sea began to agitate as the Poison Cold Shield rose up. Waves and undercurrents were formed around it, and vortexes of different sizes were created out of thin air. All of these trapped the Poison Cold Shield.

The so-called undercurrent surge probably referred to the present situation.

“Island Owner Lan, there’s no grudge between us. Why go to extremes?” Zhou Bao cried, as he tried to stir up the Poison Cold Shield. Now, he had recovered his pneuma a little.

Lan Shui’er not only remained silent, she did even show up. She only observed Zhou Bao in the dark. Seeing that Zhou Bao had gradually stabilized the situation, she only responded with a sneer, then raised her hand and manipulated the surrounding water.

Under her control, the water was activated. It followed her mind and pounced on Zhou Bao.
