Chapter 436: Dark Female Pearl & Zhou Bao’s Choice

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

People who lived on the land thought that the Sea Area was similar to the savage land, since only evil beasts lived under the sea and the ones on the land gave the impression of haphazard and solitary animals that were an excellent hunting target. Zhou Bao had been influenced by this opinion before. He did not have a good evaluation on the Sea Area. However, now that he had seen it, his views towards it completely changed.

After Zhou Bao submitted sufficient taxes, the two demon guards did not ask any questions. The strength of the two guards was at most Level Five or Six; there was no way they had the capability to sense any oddities in Zhou Bao. Together with the Rolling Dragon King’s massive reward, all experts in the sea from all corners will head here. In the past month, many people had been roaming this place. There were all kinds of people and defenses everywhere had been lowered a lot too.

Indeed, the defenses were down. Currently, the entire Sea Area of the Rolling Dragon King was strictly controlled at the borders, but relaxed within. All the other major powers wished for the murderer of the Fourth Prince to escape to their territories. In that way, they would not only receive the Rolling Dragon King’s reward, but they could also steal the fairy weapons on him. Who would not want such a good opportunity?

Master Bai Luo naturally was no exception. He could not wait to block the enemy’s retreat and then destroy him. Hence, under his orders, the original checks at the borders of Right-angle Bay were canceled to let people in directly.

As a result, the speech Zhou Bao crafted became for nought, but it did make him considerably more relaxed. The only thing that still concerned him was that he could no longer ride the blue whale he had brought in.

“Upper Immortal, your mount is too big. It would be of great inconvenience to you in Right-angle Bay. According to the rules here, you must store your mount at a fixed location while you are here and retrieve it when you leave!”

Right after Zhou Bao had entered Right-angle Bay, he met a demon on patrol not too far in his journey into Right-angle Bay. When the leading demon saw such a big fella roaming about in the Sea Area, his expression suddenly changed. He walked to Zhou Bao and said the above speech carefully.

“There is such a rule?” Zhou Bao was taken aback. He did not know about this and began silently cursing in his heart. “That damn Hun IV, he didn’t even tell me about this!”

What Zhou Bao did not know was that this rule was only recently issued by Master Bai Luo. The purpose was also to limit the ability of other contenders who banked their escape on their mount. Hun IV knew nothing about this. So, from a certain angle, it could be said that Zhou Bao had blamed the wrong person!

Although being displeased in the heart, Zhou Bao was not that silly to allow the patrols at Right-angle Bay to easily take his blue whale away.

What shocked Zhou Bao even more was that the demon on patrol actually took out a piece of paper. “Upper Immortal, may I know how long you plan to stay at Right-angle Bay?”

“About ten days to half a month. Why? You have to care about this too?” Zhou Bao asked perplexedly.

“Oh, no no!” After hearing Zhou Bao’s words, he wrote something on that paper. After a few scribbles, he passed it back to him. “Upper Immortal, within the duration of a month, you can use this permit to collect your mount from the Mount-depositing Mansion at the east side. As for the feed expense, the people at the mansion will settle with you in one month!” The demon began to lead a group of his subordinates away after the talk, leaving Zhou Bao shocked alone.

“Hehe, what a humanized place! It’s more civilized in the Sea Area than on the land. Interesting, just interesting!”

What Zhou Bao did not know was that the demon’s good attitude towards him was because he could not understand Zhou Bao’s true intentions and therefore naturally had a few misgivings. In such a situation, he was naturally more polite and civilized to Zhou Bao. If Zhou Bao’s cultivation was only at Level Five or Six, his mount may have been immediately brought to the Mount-depositing Mansion already.

In conclusion, the Sea Area was a place where only the fittest survived.

While Zhou Bao was ambling along a street somewhat similar to western medieval towns, he began to perceive other differences.

The first one was the water pressure at the bottom of the sea. Evidently, Right-angle Bay was under the protection of an extremely wonderful formation. Although Right-angle Bay was approximately 80,500 feet below sea level, the water pressure was so low that Zhou Bao could not feel any pressure at all. The second difference he noticed was that there was air here.

The underwater world should be filled up by sea water, but over here it seemed to be made up of enormous air bubbles that occasionally bubbled up to the surface. Sometimes, one could see demons within those air bubbles for a while too before they returned to the water. These demons sometimes could even be patrol officers. These demons who need to replenish their Qi in an air bubble must have a cultivation of Level Nine and below. It seemed that this Right-angle Bay was filled with demons.

Without a doubt, as one of Master Bai Luo’s biggest towns, Right-angle Bay was a peaceful and quiet one, at least on the surface. Although the demons that lived in Right-angle Bay looked a bit odd with many having an extremely fierce look, they were actually honest creatures who did not dare to cause destruction and disharmony.

“This Master Bai Luo seemingly have quite a bit of influence in this part of the Sea Area. Based on the principle that the fittest survive, he definitely is extremely strong, no less powerful than that Master Jinhua. Seems like he is a hard opponent to beat. Right-angle Bay seems to be a place that is tightly controlled at the borders with a relaxed regulation within, but there are actually so many undercover spies!” Zhou Bao glanced at the seemingly unobtrusive pathway made up of an assembly of black stones where he wanted to place his foot. An obscure snail the size of a thumb caught Zhou Bao’s eye. These obscure things were Right-angle Bay’s secret eyes that watched over everything. Everything suspicious would be caught in their eyes.

Zhou Bao would not provoke Master Bai Luo for now. He would also not mess with the power politics on Right-angle Bay. Hence, after his gaze flashed for a moment, he redirected his attention back on to the street. He needed to find a place to stay.

Thanks to Rolling Dragon King’s impressive reward, the guesthouses at Right-angle Bay were enjoying a booming business. Zhou Bao had to try four to five guesthouses before he finally found a room at a shabby guesthouse.

“You shitty idiot, how dare you come stay at a guesthouse when you don’t have money? You must be living a life with many frustrations. Get out of this place immediately! If I see you again, I will send you to the patrol team, send you to the Governing Mansion and banish you to a life of the Dragon Abyss Prison. You will never live a proper life again!”

As Zhou Bao was paying the deposit at the counter, he saw someone rolling down the stairs. Subsequently, a waiter’s scolding came from upstairs.

The one who was scolded was a demon. He was chased out because he had no money. This was the reason why Zhou Bao could stay in the guesthouse. To think about it, the room he was about to stay in must have belonged to this unfortunate fella.

Zhou Bao smiled bitterly. Hearing the words from the green-scaled waiter with an overbearing tone, he was a little bit interested in what he had just said.

Dragon Abyss Prison, Dragon Abyss Prison, sounded like a place of strict imprisonment? Creeping in there might not be easy. What if one was sent in?

“If I make some troubles here and get put in the Dragon Abyss Prison, will I get a chance to save those guys?” Zhou Bao thought in his heart. “No no, I don’t have much knowledge about the Dragon Abyss Prison. Such a direct method may harm me in the end. In that case, what a great loss it will be! I need to understand more about this Dragon Abyss Prison. Let’s see if I have the chance!”

With an idea in the heart, Zhou Bao followed the waiter up the stairs. Once he opened the door, a foul smell wafted out together with small streams of water. Zhou Bao could not help but furrowed his eyebrows.

“I’m so sorry, Sir. Our guesthouse is too small and we have only this one now. I will help you clean up for a bit first. Please come in later!” While speaking, the waiter took out a two-inch long bottle. Once he opened the bottle, a layer of faint cyan Qi flowed along the water streams into the room. In an instant, the foul smell disappeared and in its place, there was a refreshing fragrant.

“Sir, please!”

“Thanks!” Zhou Bao nodded silently, walked into the room, and closed the door.

After confirming that the waiter had left, Zhou Bao immediately began to regulate his breathing. Soon, black fires began to burn on his body.

“Just imitating the Dragon Chimera’s Demonic Qi isn’t enough. Although I can do that, it is not consistent. In the presence of the four-tribulation True Immortals, just a bit of loss of composure will cause me my life. Plus, this is the ocean which is not a fighting ground in my favor. All my strengths will be weakened here. I need a way to fully unleash my power!”

The black flame burned fiercely and Zhou Bao could not stop thinking. In the end, he seemed to have decided. He gently caressed the ring on his finger and a green pearl appeared in his hand.

The Dark Female Pearl!

As with all of Zhou Bao’s other celestial devices, the Dark Female Pearl had also been soaked in the Pure Yang Water and transformed into a Pure Yang Celestial Device. However, Zhou Bao had never used it as a celestial device. It was only used as a Second Primordial Spirit.

The Second Primordial Spirit, Outer-body Incarnation

In an unclear situation, Zhou Bao decided to increase his strength and up his powers.

Although it could be said that now was a little too early, the current situation left him with no choice. He had to make a choice.

( )

If not, causing problems in the sea would be troublesome.

“Second Primordial Spirit, Outer-body Incarnation. Hehe, I want to see your mysterious powers!” Looking at the Dark Female Pearl in front of him, Zhou Bao’s eyes began to shine with danger.
