Chapter 378: Potential to Establish A New Sect

“He is one person who can really make me angry!”Seeing Zhou Bao’s gloating appearance, Wang She wished that he knock Zhou Bao down with one blow, dislodge all the Pure Yang Celestial Devices from his body, pick them up one at a time and stow them in a safe place.

“Now since Divine Wind Palace wants to present me with a Pure Yang Celestial Device, I have no reason to refuse it, right? Chief Wang, what do you think I should do now?”

“Don’t do anything yet. Just wait for Divine Wind Palace to contact you. You’re different from others. Strictly speaking, you don’t belong to any of those big influences. Thus, they will certainly try to tempt you with huge profits. Then, you can just wait to collect the profits!”

“Chief is truly far-sighted. Then, I’ll merely sit and wait for all the good things to descend on me!” said Zhou Bao, nodding. “I’ll wait here patiently for all the good things to come my way!”

“You’d be better off paying more attention to managing your territory. These few days everybody has been feeling jittery. Some territories which are situated around your actual territory have prospered quite a lot over the past several months, but yours is still lacking.”

“I know what their plan is, of course. Now that the Bigwheel Temple issue has been solved, I believe, from now on, as long as I don’t pick on others, no one will dare to pick on me. Such being the case, this Wuyang Region has become impregnable and will not be a target for anyone anymore. Soon, this place will improve and flourish again. Why should I take such care of it? What’s more, honestly, I am just a warrior. And as a warrior, managing my own business is good enough, so why should I spare so much effort to get involved in others’ affairs? Right?”

“Well, that is a good point. You admit that you are merely a warrior and without much knowledge. It indicates that you have not become too high and mighty even with the vast power you’ve got. It’s a rare and commendable trait. Looks like there is no need for me to keep giving you advice. You conduct yourself very well, as it is!”

“After saying this, he patted Zhou Bao’s shoulder and continued, “Divine Wind Palace is not easy to mess with, nor is Immortal Palace. Since now you’re one of the 28 constellations of Immortal Palace, you may seriously consider the position of Immortal Palace when you are handling matters. That will probably do you some good!”

“Consider the position of Immortal Palace?” asked Zhou Bao, his eyes narrowing slightly. “What? Are those bosses of Immortal Palace dissatisfied with something I have done again?”

“Inside Immortal Palace, they have varied opinions about you. Golden Rooster’s lot and I have known you for quite a while and we are close to each other, so we feel good to have you as one of us. However, Sun Horse of Star and his guys do not think so kindly of you. Especially after you snatched up his Peach Blossom Miasma and disgraced him terribly the last time, he now hates you to the core!”

“That moron, Sun Horse of Star? I know the selection of constellations in Immortal Palace is very stringent, how could they even allow that kind of moron in?”

“Sun Horse of Star’s strength is pretty good, actually above the average level among the 28 constellations. If Golden Rooster hadn’t entered Level Eight, he would not have been a match for him! It was his bad luck that Sun Horse of Star bumped into you, a monster!”

“That’s his bad luck, to have bumped into me!” Zhou Bao said coldly. “Based on your words, this guy still has some clout among the 28 constellations and still has a lot of influence there!”

“He has a profound background. Although he claims to be the most liberal of influence in Immortal Palace, there seems to be some kind of shady dealings behind this. The teacher of Sun Horse of Star used to be from one of the 28 constellations, too. He has since dropped out of the 28 constellations, but still enjoys a significant amount of prestige in Immortal Palace. He has only one disciple—Sun Horse of Star—so, of course, he cares a lot for him!”

“The 28 constellations are just influences on the surface of Immortal Palace and representatives of it. Over the past hundred years or so, those retired 28 constellations might not add up to 100 but should at least amount to 80 or 90. Some of them chose to stay on at Immortal Palace and continue to accept offerings, while some have left Immortal Palace, such as the wife of Ma Tianchang, who seems to be Moon Vixen of Heart of Immortal Palace. But I’m always a little curious about those retired 28 constellations who keep accepting offerings. Do they still have a say in Immortal Palace?” asked Zhou Bao.

“Yes, they do, of course. The more powerful one’s strength is, the more say he has. And why does White Tiger has such great say in Immortal Palace? It’s just because his strength is sufficiently powerful enough. But anyway, this time he actually put in a lot of good words for you. It looks that he developed a sort of affection for you after having that battle with you. He has become your staunch admirer, much like how he admired Ye Qingtian back then!”

“What’s the relationship between him and Ye Qingtian?”

“Not too close a relationship. When Ye Qingtian gained his fame in Penglai Region, White Tiger attempted to pull him into Immortal Palace but failed. He felt really upset about that. But it now appears that the failure was a good thing after all. If Ye Qingtian had joined Immortal Palace back then, now there would be a lot of trouble in store for Immortal Palace!”

“Yep. Collaborating with the Fiery Eyes sect is enough to put Immortal Palace into a passive situation. But I really wonder what it is the reaction of Immortal Palace when they get into such a position!”

“That will be very tricky for others, but for you, it’s a piece of cake!” said Wang She with a smile. “You can broadcast that you have Fiery Eyes now!”

“Hahaha!”

…

…

Ten days passed in a flash!

After the day when Zhou Bao repelled the Yukun Buddha of the Bigwheel Temple, he was busy with a series of activities. First, he had a meeting with all the officials in his territory. Currently, the hierarchy of his Wuyang Earl’s Mansion was already in place. Everyone in Earl Mansion had his own role and would be receiving his own salary. But these days the Wuyang Region was in a chaotic state. With saboteurs coming to the scene one after another and spreading panic throughout the region, everybody’s hearts were in their throats.

Zhou Bao met up with them, in the hope of setting their mind at ease. He told them that he had curbed his training and the days they had to tread carefully around him were definitely over, and what they should do now was working hard and do a good job. Their work should be deployed closely around the Zhou Bao-centered Earl Mansion. All the officials agreed that Zhou Bao’s words really made sense and were deeply inspirational. They would cooperate with Zhou Bao and build up Wuyang Region into a stable, harmonious, thriving and prosperous territory.

When he had dealt with all his subordinates, he went to the villa and had another meeting with the experts from the Immortal Palace. After reinforcing his bond with those experts, calm was restored to the place.

That lasted until the end of the 10 day period.

10 days was enough time to change a lot of things, as well as to spread the news across the world. The news that the Bigwheel Temple’s double attacks against the Wuyang Region had ended badly, after suffering heavy casualties and having to compensate the Wuyang Region with three Pure Yang Celestial Devices, were no longer well kept secrets. Very few people was aware about what was happening at Snow Mountain BigWheel Temple; those who knew the actual facts did not realize the actual severity of the news.

Of course, along with that news, another bit of information had also been making its rounds around the world: a very impressive disclosure had been going around regarding Zhou Bao’s Wuyang Region, which was able to resist Genuine Immortals. Child-endowing Buddha and Yukun Buddha both had their downfall due to this formation. According to Yukun Buddha’s speculation, this formation was likely to be the legendary Yin and Yang Dust Formation.

Comparing the news with that about the three Pure Yang Celestial Devices, this one was obviously much more shocking.

Formation was said to be the foundation of a strong school or an influence, and a powerful formation could guarantee the safety of a school for numerous years. For example, the Mandala Formation of the Snow Mountain Bigwheel Temple had helped Bigwheel Temple to get through countless crises. No matter what kind of enemy or calamity they came across, as long as the Mandala Formation was initiated, Bigwheel Temple would be kept intact. And that had assured Bigwheel Temple’s existence for 50,000 years. However, the Yin and Yang Dust Formation even ranked higher than the formation of the Bigwheel Temple!

What did this mean?

Did Zhou Bao have plans to build not only a powerful territory but a powerful sect as well?

That was a possibility.

By now Zhou Bao was famed for his strong powers and formidable celestial devices. He had more than one Pure Yang Celestial Device in his hand. If he truly wanted to set up a sect, the Pure Yang Celestial Devices he had were enough to maintain the fate of his sect well, enabling the sect he had established to last for thousands of years. Meanwhile, the Yin and Yang Dust Formation would ensure that he was able to successfully withstand the attacks launched by any Genuine Immortal.

Attacks launched by a Genuine Immortal?

Nowadays, no Genuine Immortal would really launch an attack on a newly developing school. They would do that only if the founder of that school had extremely low moral standards like Zhou Bao. Nevertheless, the story of Yukun Buddha was evidence that a single Genuine Immortal was not able to break through the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, even two or three Genuine Immortals could not manage that, either.

Only when there were five or more Genuine Immortals, would they then be able to break through the defense of the Yin and Yang Dust Formation.

Five Genuine Immortals!

“Really, that must be a joke!” Zhou Bao’s strength was not even at Level Nine yet in order for him to attain the Metaphysic Realm. If he ever established a school, that would be a school of the mortal world. Accordingly, even if only one Genuine Immortal assaulted that school, the Law of Heaven would already be violated, let alone five Genuine Immortals. How could five Genuine Immortals be willing to simultaneously breach the Law of Heaven for this Wuyang Region?

They must have lost their minds!

It was good to remember that be it the Child-endowing Buddha or Yukun Buddha, striking out to conquer Wuyang Region would always come with a price. At Zhou Bao’s place, they had managed to get off the hook easily by giving him three Pure Yang Celestial Devices. But in the Divine Wind Palace, the Immortal Palace, the Dragon Thunder Palace and the Jade Pool, they would never be able to achieve that. After all, the two did violate the Law of the Heaven. If their attacks were successful and the victim died, that would be fine. However, now the victim was still alive and kicking and had a promising future ahead. Also, he was the prize that the Divine Wind Palace was trying to cozy up to. In this case, the Bigwheel Temple would certainly have a hard time. Divine Wind Palace was eagerly waiting for the Bigwheel Temple to commit some blunders so that they would have a hold on Bigwheel Temple and force them to surrender. With Bigwheel Temple at such a vulnerable point, surely Divine Wind Palace would leverage on that advantage?

It was a totally impossible situation.

In this way, after considering all the factors, everyone suddenly discovered that Zhou Bao, this little kid less than 20 years old, had the world in the palm of his hand; magic weapons, strength, and even the potential to open up a millennia sect similar to the Tian Long Taoism and the Mingyi School!

A millennia sect!

Setting up such a sect was even more difficult than setting up a dynasty on Earth.

If we gave this further thought, if Zhou Bao should really establish an early form of a millennia sect and joined up with Divine Wind Palace, he was undoubtedly akin to a nail that was firmly hammered in place into the Central Mainland Region by Divine Wind Palace, which meant the situation of the Four Eastern Regions was bound to have significant changes!
