Chapter 871: The Dark Mountains

It was a life or death situation!

Zhou Bao was fleeing for his life!

The Jade Emperor Crown Prince, Emperor Yu An, was much stronger than he had imagined. If it had not been for Zhou Bao’s quick decision in activating his Supreme Fairy Weapon the Black Pearl, he might have been left behind at the most crucial moment when Ghost Child discharged the strange red cloud.

Although the danger was over for the moment, Zhou Bao did not dare lower his guard yet.

The Black Pearl was very fast, perhaps faster than anything else in the mortal world. But this was not the mortal world, it was the Immortal Realm, which was a totally different world. In just a few short days, Zhou Bao had encountered two opponents who were stronger than he was. Compared to the Treasure-snatching Rock, he thought the several Earthly Immortals he encountered previously in the mortal world were scum at best.

They were both Earthly Immortals, how could there be such a big difference in their strengths?

Zhou Bao was confident he could kill those Earthly Immortals, no matter how strong they were. But facing the dark pressurizing force from Yu An, his courage to fight had all but disappeared.

“Is this the type of strength the strongest Earthly Immortals possess? I have no way of blocking it!” He felt overwhelmed. He drove the Black Pearl toward the direction of the Chaotic Poisonous Sea. Previously he had wanted to ask the Sky-walking Emperor for help due to his Black Pearl being a Supreme Fairy Weapon. When it was launched, it was noisy and its force was too great. If he were to use it at full force, it would disturb some of the strongest Immortals. If he were to startle some of those guys, it would create even more problems for himself. But now, the gloom that the Emperor An had left him in was too much for him to bear. Due to his desperation to save his life, he sought to escape, using all his powers.

Boom!

Just as Zhou Bao calmed himself down, the Black Pearl, which had been hurtling at full speed, stopped dead in its tracks, or rather, it collided with something hard. It was like a car traveling at high speed and suddenly hitting a solid wall.

A huge boom sounded and Zhou Bao, who had been relying on his strongest card, the Supreme Fairy Weapon, was flung from the vessel due to the impact of the collision.

He had collided with a huge Space Rampart, was sent flying and started falling through space.

“What is this thing? Maybe the Jade Emperor Sage placed it there himself!” His Black Pearl had been severely damaged by the strike. This could not have been done by a normal Earthly Immortal.

After he was sent flying by the collision, he finally saw what was in his way.

It was a mountain!

A black peak, suspended in mid-air, was blocking his path.

“What’s up with this mountain? How come I did not see it in front of me?” After he steadied the Black Pearl, Zhou Bao scowled darkly. He had not noticed such a large thing appearing in mid-air. It was almost impossible for that to happen.

Were his opponent’s tricks really that unfathomable?

“It’s the Dark Mountains, Emperor An’s Supreme Fairy Weapon. The Dark Mountains were apparently refined from a fragment of the Sacred City of Termination. They had incredible powers and carried an aura of endless destruction. At that time the emperor had depended on the Dark Mountains to fight battles all around Heaven Realm and established a fearsome reputation!”

“D*mn, the Jade Emperor Sage commanding such a strong Earthly Immortal? Why didn’t you tell me about this?”

“How would I know? Even before the Necromancer Tribulation happened, this Emperor An fell out with the Jade Emperor and they almost came to blows. Who knew when they were reconciled?”

“But I’m not on friendly terms with that old b*stard. I am not here for him!” A tyrannical voice broke in and interrupted Zhou Bao and Ghost Child’s conversation. “Boy, your strength is not bad. After you have reached the Heaven and Earth Secret Technique, your combat capability might even catch up with mine. But if you do not overcome today’s obstacle, you will have nothing!”

Even as he spoke, the Dark Mountains in the sky started to shake violently before disappearing. When they reappeared on top of the heavily damaged Black Pearl, they exerted a Thousand-Ton Thunder Force, pressing downwards.

The Flipping Sky Seal!

At that moment, Zhou Bao felt like he was locked in by the seal. But these Dark Mountains were more powerful than the Sky Flipping Seal. Their dark, all-consuming aura had already taken shape.

Zhou Bao clearly knew that his Black Pearl would not be able to withstand the grinding pressure of the Dark Mountains. In fact, even under this pressure, he could feel his Supreme Fairy Weapon starting to shake. The fragments of the Sacred City of Fate inside the Black Pearl felt like they were coming off.

“The Sacred City of Fate fragments? I didn’t think you had a piece of the mortal world. Haha, it’s such a nice surprise! If my Dark Mountains can absorb a piece, then they’ll increase in power for sure. It will really help me to reach illumination. Your Tribulation Taker secrets and fate, my friend, are the reasons I have come to kill you!”

Of course, Zhou Bao felt hopeless. While he was in the hands of the Emperor An, his fighting methods were completely ineffective. But he was not the passive type of person, who would just close his eyes and await his death. If this guy wanted his life, he would at least have to pay an equal price. His character was such that even if he couldn’t kill his opponent, he would at least tear off a piece of his flesh.

Zhou Bao was totally desperate now. He stretched his body and screamed with all his might. Three lights flashed from between his eyebrows and formed three human figures.

The Primordial Spirits of Three Separations!

His body turned into a towering Primordial Demonic Ape. He clenched his fists and the brutal, all-encompassing Qi Power gathered into a massive shape. An unimaginable fist intent emerged, creating all sorts of Void Universe changes and wonders after the Dharma Ending Age. Finally, the changes and wonders formed a torrent of fist intent, streaming into Zhou Bao’s fists.

Ugh!

Zhou Bao strained under the pressure and punched ceaselessly at the Dark Mountains above him. At the same time, his three primordial spirits separated out to deal the final blow.

The Yin and Yang Immortal-killing Heavenly Sword shot outwards, moving with Zhou Bao’s fist. The Elixir Poison of the Nine-headed Fierce Beast turned into a giant hand, pushing fiercely upwards. With it the Furnace of Immortality countered the attack, spraying a space-melting flame.

This still didn’t work. Inside the damaged Black Pearl, the Pool of Thunder Tribulation manifested itself. In the pool, a spirit device that looked like a thunderbolt giant gave a low roar and the boundless thunder wrapped around his body, meeting the attack of the Dark Mountains.

The Black Pearl had been severely damaged and by now Zhou Bao was also desperate. He drew strength from within Azure Big World and emitted faint black rays to meet the attack.

Life and death are ordained by fate, as is wealth and honor. Since he was already in this situation, he would fight for his life!

And he fought with all his might!

With the Primordial Demonic Ape’s roar, Zhou Bao felt his spirit ascend to a higher level. In a moment he felt he had limitless power and the knowledge of this poured into his spirit. It was as if he could see way back into the past, back to primitive times. The Demonic Ape Zhuyan’s family had dominated the golden ages. He saw endless battle scenes, techniques as well as the countless lessons and experiences. It all poured into his soul in one second. Now he would never forget it; it was permanently etched onto his soul.

If he had gained such an advantage in normal times, it really would have perked him up. This time, it was different and he had misgivings about this. His entire mind was suppressed by the Dark Mountains in the sky.

Boom!

The Dark Mountains pushed down and Zhou Bao inhibited the full force of the attack; this merely made the Dark Mountains shake a little. Then, the mountains pushed down harder than before.

The Dark Mountains shook, but Zhou Bao could not feel it. All he could feel was the sense of powerlessness, as Mount Tai pressed down on him.

“An interesting guy! He actually has some good techniques!” Although he had all the advantages, Emperor Yu An did not look relaxed at all. The Dark Mountains shook with each of Zhou Bao’s strikes. In fact, the terrible force had already damaged the foundation of the Supreme Fairy Weapon. But it was only a slight damage. His expression did not expose the fact that he was feeling under pressure from Yu An. Steeped in desperation, Zhou Bao had not yet realized that Yu An was also in trouble.

“Damnit! This boy is releasing quite a lot of power! I don’t believe he could damage the foundations of the Dark Mountains! Even if I were to take his Sacred City of Fate fragments away from him, it wouldn’t make up for this loss! Hmph, only this boy’s fate and bloodline would satisfy me. Otherwise, I will make his spirit burn until the end of this era and have him suffer endless misery to quell my hatred!”

The Dark Mountains were damaged and Emperor An’s resentment filled the sky. This was his personal fairy weapon. The Dark Mountains were not just any ordinary worldly possession; they were a part of Yu An’s own identity. Now his body was fundamentally harmed. Zhou Bao really must have some object that defied the natural order, otherwise, it would have been very difficult to repair the damage. But if Zhou Bao really did have such an object, then he would not have ended up in this situation.

“You have been able to block my damages, you must have acquired the Seven Wonderful Techniques! Boy, go to hell!” A severe look flashed across Yu An’s face. He looked at Zhou Bao withstanding the pressure of the Dark Mountains, looking like he still wanted to fight. He laughed coldly, splayed out his hand and smacked it down onto the Dark Mountains. “Boy, don’t try to fight back, it will be in vain, just die!”

The Dark Mountains transformed into a black stream of light and shot straight down into the Immortal Realm.

“It’s over!” Feeling the tremendous power from the Dark Mountains, Zhou Bao felt completely helpless.
