Chapter 813: The Dharma Ending Tribulation

“You really just turned the tables and ran away?”

In the endless hollow, the Black Pearl, a Supreme Fairy Weapon, streaked through a cluster of stars and hurtled towards an unknown space. It had rushed out of numerous spaces and thrown loads of spacetimes into disorder. Now, it was more than 10,000 light years away from the Desolate Ancient Star Area.

Zhou Bao was standing on the Black Pearl, gazing at the vast universe. His eyes were narrowed, as if he was lost in thought. Right now, the red gourd and its device spirit sneaked out and chatted with him.

“Didn’t you say you were doing a closed-door training? Why are you here?”

“Hee hee, with the help of the Wheel of Time in your Azure Heaven, a closed-door training did not take too long. Anyway, it’s you who amazed the world with a single brilliant feat. I reckon those old bastards must have been extremely annoyed with you!”

“Seems that you know something about those old bastards!” Zhou Bao answered coolly.

“I don’t. It is just a guess. Boy, don’t look at me like that. I’m not concealing anything from you. All the time I’m just guessing, what if I get it wrong?” Catching Zhou Bao’s eyes, Ghost Child could not help trembling in fear. Then, he said with a chuckle, “Honestly, Heaven Realm World merely bumped into one tribulation. I just didn’t expect that you would really choose to escape!”

“I’m not a bold person!”

“In this case, who do you think will win?”

“They all have a chance. But it appears that those great emperors are subject to some restrictions!”

“Of course they have restrictions. I would find it weird if they did not!” Ghost Child laughed. “Do you think back then the Jade Emperor just moved Heaven Realm World to the Desolate Ancient Star Area and left it as is? He exerted all his effort to set up tons of protective mechanisms for it. Otherwise, with his Sage-like cultivation, how did he become so exhausted and disappear!”

“Sage-like cultivation? You mean a Celestial Immortal?”

“Yes, those who managed to reach the Celestial Immortal Rank are all called Sages!”

Ghost Child answered with a smile, “But such powerful existences like the Celestial Immortal are very rare, even in antiquity times. Thus, few people know about them!”

“Then, that man from the Fifth Manor ought to have the power of a Sage, shouldn’t he?”

“Are you talking about Zhen Yuanzi? Hee hee, he is a Taoist!”

“A Taoist?” Zhou Bao was a bit shocked. But anyway, there were many Taoists in the world. Any practitioner could claim to be a Taoist or a monk. When Zhou Bao was in Eastern Thunder World, he also claimed to be Taoist Cundi.

“A man at the level of the Celestial Immortal is called a Sage. This is a title passed down after the ancient deities fell apart. It was created in antiquity times to differentiate various phases and to show respect. However, some old Celestial Immortals did not like this title, such as the master of the Emperor Youming and the Emperor of Netherworld. He never calls himself a Sage. Instead, he likes to be addressed as Taoist Reincarnation. So does the one in the Fifth Manor. He claims to be Taoist Zhen Yuan instead of Immortal Zhen Yuan. You need to understand that Taoist is the title for Powerful Divines in primitive times. Well, in comparison, today’s Taoists are, hee hee—” Fate Creation Boy cackled but did not finish his sentence.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I called myself Taoist when I was in Eastern Thunder World. Oh, if others ever learn who I am, they will certainly laugh their heads off!”

“Not a lot of people know what the title really means. Nowadays, loads of men claim to be Taoists. You’re not the only ignorant one!”

At this, Zhou Bao’s face burned with embarrassment. He blushed and decided to let the matter of titles go, so he steered the discussion to a new topic. “You just mentioned Taoist Reincarnation. I happen to have a Reincarnation Scroll. The Emperor of Netherworld gave it to me as a gift!”

“Emperor of Netherworld gave you the first volume of the Reincarnation Scroll?” Ghost Child’s expression altered abruptly. When Zhou Bao entered Netherworld Heaven, Ghost Child was doing a closed-door training in Azure Heaven, so he had no idea about this. “He also gifted you his Netherworld Heaven, didn’t he? No, no, he just left it to you, didn’t he?”

“Right. How did you know that?”

“How did I know? It’s only natural. Now that he has given you the Reincarnation Scroll, how could he not leave the Netherworld Heaven to you? His Netherworld Heaven was formed by practicing the first volume of this Reincarnation Scroll. When you’re able to comprehend the Reincarnation Scroll, you can use the Netherworld Heaven to improve your power and cultivation. This will be a huge benefit for you!”

“But why did he give me such a huge benefit?” Zhou Bao was initially happy with this. But soon he felt alarmed. As the saying goes, no decent man would give a windfall to anyone for no good reason. Zhou Bao had only met the Emperor of Netherworld twice. Even though he had obtained the Ranking of Demons and Immortals and given it to the Emperor of Netherworld, he did not reckon he deserved such a generous gift in return.

“If he didn’t leave them to you, he would have left it to someone else. If he refused to give up such a little thing, how could he accomplish the Celestial Immortals’ Great Way?”Ghost Child said, but his eyes were displaying signs of jealousy. “In a hundred years or less, we’ll definitely have another Sage in the Void Universe, the Netherworld Sage!”

“What? Are you saying he is going to be a Celestial Immortal?”

“Right. That’s why he left these two things to you. If he is unwilling to give them up, how can he gain more? I think this insight dawned on him. Even if you weren’t there to receive his gifts, there would be others. You were just lucky to meet him at the right time!”

“Lucky? I actually think this is fate!” Now, Zhou Bao was just a Human Immortal, way inferior to a Celestial Immortal. Of course, he could not understand why realizing the Celestial Immortal’s Way was relevant to giving up the Reincarnation Scroll and Netherworld Heaven. Knowing the Emperor of Netherworld was not playing any tricks on him was enough for him.

“The Reincarnation Scroll he gave is not the first volume. To be more accurate, it is the Yellow Springs Scroll. When you become a Divine Immortal, you’ll be able to grasp its meaning. But be careful, since the Yellow Springs Scroll is in your hands, maybe Emperor Youming will come to pick a fight with you!”

“He and Emperor of Netherworld are fellow apprentices of one master?”

“What he has is the You Ming Scroll of the Reincarnation Scroll. Either of the two volumes will be able to help the practitioner comprehend the Celestial Immortal’s Way. Emperor of Netherworld is a good example. However, Emperor Youming is different from him. Emperor of Netherworld can step into the Celestial Immortal Realm with merely half of the Reincarnation Scroll, but Emperor Youming may not be able to do so. Therefore, Emperor Youming is certainly eyeing the Netherworld Scroll!”

“His coveting my Netherworld Scroll is his problem. Now, I’m far away from Heaven Realm World. I won’t get involved in these matters anymore. So, what else is he going to do to me?”

“Don’t think of it this way. Reincarnation does exist in this world. Everything will come around one day. You really think you have escaped the troubles in Heaven Realm World? No, you just delayed them. Someday, these troubles will still find you. What’s more, you’re also a Tribulation Taker. If you can just run away so easily, what the hell do we need the Dharma of the Void Universe for?”

“Stop exaggerating and scaring me!”

“I’m not exaggerating, I’m telling you the truth. Being a Tribulation Taker, it’s natural to want to run away. Buying more time is also a good strategy. But if you really believe you can escape your destiny, you’re just being stupid” Ghost Child could not help but blurt out curses.

“Then, you tell me, what’s the best move I should take?”

“Practice, practice, and practice, until you become an Earthly Immortal or a Celestial Immortal. With your present combat capability, if you advance to the phase of the Earthly Immortal, you’ll enjoy more freedom. If you are lucky enough to get to the Celestial Immortal Realm, you’ll be able to move out of the Void Universe and create a new world. At that time, no matter how powerful the Way of Heaven is in the Void Universe is, it can no longer have any impact on you!”

“Create a new world? But I’ve already got my—”

“Don’t compare this with those macro worlds and micro worlds. In the Void Universe, all the macro worlds and micro worlds are subject to the Dharma of the Void Universe. Even though its impact is minimal in Heaven Realm World, it is still restricted by the existing arrangements. Otherwise, Heaven Realm World wouldn’t have suffered the tribulation. The so-called creation of a new world refers to the kind of world like the Devil Realm, which is independent of the Void Universe. Note that the Devil Realm was actually built by several Sage-ranking Primordial Demons years ago! ” Speaking of this, Ghost Child paused. Then, he went on, “And what do you think was the reason why all the mighty practitioners in primitive times have disappeared? They’re not dead. In fact, they’ve all progressed to the Celestial Immortal Realm, broken away from the restrictions of the Void Universe, and started a new, free life!”

As he was speaking, Zhou Bao could tell Ghost Child was absolutely envious of those Celestial Immortals.

Compared to the Earthly Immortals’ Great Way, the Celestial Immortal’s Great Way was more appealing. Although being an Earthly Immortal meant one could have his own world and live as long as the existence of heaven and earth, Ghost Child, a creature born since the Primordial Origin, knew perfectly well that a life as long as the existence of heaven and earth was not limitless. The heaven and earth here only referred to the Void Universe. When the Void Universe ended one day, the lives of these Earthly Immortals and Emperors would also come to an end. Only those who had entered the Celestial Immortal Realm and created a new world for themselves could have a chance to stay safe. Despite this chance being slim, having a chance to survive was always better than just waiting for death like the Earthly Immortals.

For a device spirit like Ghost Child, it did not have a living limit at all. Adding that he already had very impressive strength, the Earthly Immortals’ way was naturally not appealing to him. What they want to pursue was the Celestial Immortal’s Way. But unfortunately, despite his strength, a device spirit was never able to catch up with other creatures on the road of practicing. Thus, he could only moan about his sorrows.

“This is really surprising!” After Ghost Child have given him all the details, Zhou Bao drew a deep breath. Living as long as the existence of heaven and earth still had its limits. If a man really wanted to live an endless life, he had to break through the Celestial Immortal Realm and create a new world. This was not good news for a guy who was extremely afraid of death like Zhou Bao.

“It appears that the only way I can lead a better and longer life is through industrious practicing to elevate my strength to its utmost limit !”

Surviving was the initial impetus Zhou Bao had since the first day of his practicing as well as the ultimate drive. Now, with his current accomplishments in martial practicing, he had learned its wonders and had a taste of the limitless longevity. No matter what, Zhou Bao would not give up practicing!

“To keep surviving is not an easy task!” Staring at Zhou Bao, something seemed to have occurred to Ghost Child and he started chuckling. “Boy, you call yourself a Tribulation Taker all the time, but do you know what kind of tribulation you’re going to take? Listen, it’s highly possible that your tribulation is the last tribulation of the Void Universe—the Dharma Ending Tribulation. So, how could it be easy for you to survive!”
