Omnipotent Sage

Numberless and absolute power appeared around him in different forms.

The power, which was as thin as a wire, began to wrap his feet and tried to bound them together. It was tying his body like a rope. At the same time, a lot of pneumas were concentrating above his head and would eventually turn into a mountain peak. Once the mountain peak formed, formidable power would rush towards him.

“This mountain peak is very interesting. It’s similar to my Flipping Sky Seal but less abstruse!” Zhou Bao suddenly extended his hands. An overwhelming might spurted and broke the power rope trying to restrain him. With his own power, a layer of frost started to form around him. Slightly raising his head, he was watching the mountain peak that was made from the invisible power. A cold smile appeared around the corner of his mouth.

“Good! Good! The pneuma from the whole land is collected and transforms into the purest of powers. It’s condensed in such a small area. You’re so brave. Don’t you worry that the power is out of your control and destroys this land?”

“You’re the evildoer. You offended our Great Tang. The Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty would rather die than live in disgrace. Even if the power plunges the people into misery and suffering, it’s you who should bear the Karma!”

“Hehehehe! Good idea. I bear all the Karma. But I don’t agree. The Way of Heaven decides who bears the Karma. Except for the Way of Heaven, the Fate Creator has always a say. If they attribute the responsibility to you, it has nothing to do with me!”

“Fate Creator?” Obviously, the host of the Youxian Temple did not expect that Zhou Bao would mention a Fate Creator. He was a little bit absent-minded, which led to the emergence of a seam.

Zhou Bao was waiting for that moment.

Feeling that the power condensed by the pneuma revealed a seam, Zhou Bao suddenly raised his twin hammers. The hammer in his left hand turned into an azure light and crashed on the mountain peak, which was almost done with condensation. Simultaneously, he smashed the invisible power wrapping him with the hammer in his right hand. His feet softly touched the ground. Like a lightning, he shot out of the power sharply and escaped the area covered by the mountain peak.

“No—!”

“BOOM!!”

Seeing Zhou Bao breaking up the power so easily, the Youxian Temple host could not help but cry loudly. And the hammers that Zhou Bao had just thrown reached the bottom of the pneuma mountain peak.

A resounding crash came to everyone’s ears. The invisible power spread with great destruction. Everywhere it swept, everything was smashed into pieces. The influence was almost equal to Zhou Bao’s Infinite Trembling Contemplation or even stronger.

But in Zhou Bao’s opinion, those two were totally different things.

This destructive ripple embodied the absolute power while the Infinite Trembling Contemplation reflected the absolute skill. They were two totally different extremes.

“Zhou Bao, go to hell!”

The intangible power was diffusing. However, it did not damage the pneuma mountain peak seriously. The peak was still at the Youxian Temple host’s control. At the remote space in the Youxian Temple, the host was not calm anymore. He had just taken on a True Taoist priest look earlier but now he showed a fierce look with hair disheveled. His previous black hair also instantly became gray and white. His skin was dry and rough with wrinkles sprawling. In a moment, he became an old man.

“Zhou Bao. We will die together!”

“Die together with me!”

Zhou Bao frowned his eyebrows. With his divine thoughts, he clearly saw the situation in the deep time and space inside the Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty. “You are burning your life to temporarily get giant power and to help you control the pneuma mountain peak freely. You want to attack me with the help of the mountain peak’s absolute power. You really have a great determination. But, it’s not enough!” Zhou Bao laughed coldly.

“Do you think you really have an infinite power? I’ve already collected over 80% pneuma in this region and made it into the pneuma peak. I don’t believe I can’t kill you!” With the Youxian Temple host’s resentful voice, the pneuma mountain was flying to Zhou Bao swiftly as if it hardly had any weight.

Zhou Bao did not show his weakness. Instead, he raised his hammers towards the mountain peak.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

Zhou Bao vigorously hit the mountain peak nine times with his hammers. He stepped back because he did not find a good holding spot in the air. In spite of that, his strength just grew even more.

The ferocious pneuma flooded to all directions in continuous beats. The Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty was the first victim. It had finally become a complete ruin and was razed to the ground. Most of the Youxian Temple’s disciples had already evacuated to their deep space-time. The others were unluckily bombarded to death.

The battle also brought disaster to the practitioners who were just “seeing the fun”. Among the practitioners who arrived at the Youxian Temple earlier, the first group was close to the Youxian Temple; the second group had high cultivation and the third group was formed by those who had high cultivation but were close to the temple at the same time. The last two groups did not suffer a great loss because they immediately ran away when seeing the catastrophic situation. However, the first group was unfortunate. They did not belong to the Youxian Temple and were not introduced into the Youxian Temple’s time and space, so fleeing away was not an option. Finally, they lost their lives within the violent pneuma.

In an instant, corpses lied all over the Youxian Temple. This fairyland became a bloody battlefield in the blink of an eye.

“Kill, kill, kill, kill—!”

The Youxian Taoist Temple’s host lost sanity and burned his life to the extreme. Tens of thousands of years worth of good life was almost completely extinguished. Only a ten-day life was left. Besides, he still believed that he could kill Zhou Bao with his Dharma power paying this huge cost.

However, it was beyond his expectation that Zhou Bao could be such a tenacious person.

He had thrown caution away, burned much of his life and controlled the mountain peak. Yet, he just gained a little bit fo the upper hand.

He had no idea that Zhou Bao was letting him slightly win on purpose.

This mountain peak had already gathered over 80% pneuma of the whole land. But Zhou Bao’s fist intent completely absorbed the power of a planet. In terms of the power, Zhou Bao’s was not behind of the mountain peak. Besides, Zhou Bao grasped the Heavenly Jade Technique. If he thoroughly launched it, he could destroy this pneuma mountain peak into pieces within five hits by his hammers. However, he chose not to do so.

Under the mountain peak’s pressure, Zhou Bao retreated one step after another. However, he did not act like a loser at all. He pretended that he was trying to withstand.

“Hehehe. Good. You deserve the sect of the bypassing ranks in the Three Western Regions. But how long can you hold on?” “One day, two days, three or ten days. I will see how long the way of burning life can help you!” Zhou Bao laughed wildly. The hammers in his hands, like the raindrops, smashed the mountain peak and broke up the Qi Power of the pneuma mountain peak drastically.

“Zhou Bao, you’re right. Indeed, I can’t hold for a long time. But how about you?”

“Well then. Let’s see who will be the winner!” Zhou Bao gave a brittle laugh. His hammers drew a flower. With a flash, he went to the top mountain peak again and fiercely hit it from above.

“BOOM!”

This time, the whole mountain nearly dropped to the ground.

“Hahaha! How about it? I told you. I don’t need to spend much time on resisting you. You have time. But there’s not enough time for your Tang Empire!”

In a crazy laughter, Zhou Bao cracked again. The mountain peak was closer to the ground.

“You, you, you’re a bastard!” At this moment, the Youxian Temple’s host would really be a fool if he did not know Zhou Bao’s intention.

He could hold on for ten days while the others could not.

Their battle had already triggered a change inside the Tang Empire. It was a fight between the hammers and the mountain peak. The surroundings were being destroyed due to their fierce fight. That was also the reason why the Youxian Temple’s host prevented Zhou Bao from pounding the mountain peak to the ground. Once the pneuma mountain peak touched the ground and the earth vein, the pneuma would explode and then transform into an endless pneuma storm that could perfectly ruin the whole Tang Empire. That was not the most terrible thing though. Actually, even the whole land would suffer the unstable pneuma explosion, and the Seven-deity Regions would soon become the Six-deity Regions. From Zhou Bao’s behavior, he must have planned all this. The Tang Empire did not belong to the Four Eastern Regions and was not his foundation. However, the Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty was different. The foundation of the Youxian Temple located here. Although the temple could be rebuilt and the disciples could be fostered, the territory could not be constructed again. It had been 810,000 years since the antiquity times. Moreover, the profits had been already allocated. All the big sects had their own territory. Once one of them lost it, the sect had to occupy the other sects’ territory for its own survival. If it came to that, no matter how good the relationship was among the sects, they would be enemies if the territory occupation happened.

Therefore, Zhou Bao did not fear at all, but the Youxian Temple did. Temporarily, the Youxian Temple thought they had Zhou Bao against the ropes. But in fact, it was him who controlled the whole situation.

The Youxian Temple’s host was obviously affected by his realization. The movement of the pneuma mountain peak was not so flexible. Therefore, Zhou Bao took this opportunity to get a hold over the situation.

“The Youxian Taoist Temple of the Tang Dynasty is just so-so. Like the Extraterrestrial Divine Mountain, it’s also the Apple of Sodom. I don’t need to fear them!” Zhou Bao was dominant now, so he laughed with great satisfaction.

“Young guy. Don’t think you can dominate the world with your capability!”

When Zhou Bao was in smug satisfaction, a voice came from the sky. A milk-white light emerged. Against the background of the light, the furious pneuma was softened. “The Three Western Regions is not your Four Eastern Regions. You won’t be allowed to do as you want!”

“Fairy Pool Hunter?” Those in the Youxian Temple heard the voice. Several Patriarchs of high level all showed happy faces.

“Fairy Pool Hunter? Shit. I’ve done so much work, and you come now to ruin it?” A sly and glad expression came into Zhou Bao’s eyes. However, his body stiffened.
