Chapter 625: Meeting His Match
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
For Administrator Zhang it was both annoying and unexpected.
As the Administrator of the Sea Area, he was used to looking down on the Human Tribe of the Seven-deity Regions. The Human Tribe had long declined in the Heaven Realm. Had it not been for the ancient inhibition in the Seven-deity Regions, the Seven-deity Regions would have been occupied by the Sea Area. Grand Demons in the Sea Area were well aware that the power there was far inferior to that of the Sea Area. One Administrator here was enough to wipe out the human beings there many times over.
He had brought 34 Lords of Heaven to the island to deal with the Thunder Emperor’s palace, and this was still not his full strength.
The total number of Lords of Heaven in the entire Seven-deity Regions was probably less than 17. To the Grand Demons in the Sea Area, the humans of the Seven-deity Regions were like monkeys fighting over a toy they didn’t care about. Now a great treasure had been discovered that could help him enter the Realm of Human Immortal. Right now, nothing in the world was more important to him than obtaining it. Yet these damned inferior humans wanted to fight for it too. How could that be!
“I can’t do anything in the Seven-deity Regions because of the ancient inhibition. Now there’s treasure in the Sea Area. You humans are courting death trying to compete with me for it.”
Thus, the moment the Golden Embroidered Warship appeared, it was attacked by numerous celestial devices. The Celestial Demon Octo-formation also launched an attack. Great Ancient Demons and strange beasts became entities, striking the warship violently. Zhou Bao swung his hammers to force them back.
The whole island was shocked from the blow of his hammer.
A mushroom-shaped cloud rose high into the air. Four Demonic Lords of Heaven were hammered badly and had to retreat with shame. A Demonic Immortal at the Lord of Heaven Realm was crushed. His spirit did not survive.
“RUMBLE, RUMBLE!”
A thundering sound shook the whole island. The Celestial Demon Octo-formation completely collapsed. Neither the attacker nor the victim expected such an outcome.
In a constant burst of energy, a young man dressed in cyan clothes stepped down slowly from the Seven-color Warship. He had twin hammers in his hands and a gentle smile on his face.
“The boundless Sea Area deserves its reputation. There are so many Lords of Heaven. I can display my full capabilities now!” The young man smiled and swung his hammers. With a quick flash he appeared next to another Demonic Lord of Heaven. An azure light flashed.
“BOOM! ! !”
The Demonic Lord of Heaven was hit. He died, his spirit gone forever.
“Who are you?”
Administrator Zhang finally came to realize what was happening. Silvery gray tentacles appeared out of thin air and struck Zhou Bao.
“Eh?” Zhou Bao’s face twisted slightly. He lifted the twin hammers against the tentacles.
“BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!”
Loud bangs echoed across the sky. Astonishment appeared on Zhou Bao’s face. These tentacles were so bizarre. They didn’t break completely after being hammered. Although he didn’t attack with all his strength, each hammer was enough to seriously injure a Lord of Heaven. However, these slippery, apparently flesh-and-blood tentacles were exceptionally powerful. Not only were they tough and flexible enough to defuse his hammer strikes, they also recovered quickly from severe damage.
It was far beyond Zhou Bao’s expectations and this excited him. He had just exited training and now had the opportunity to battle such a formidable opponent. This trip to the Sea Area was worth it.
“Great, awesome! Show me your ultimate power!” Zhou Bao cried. He leaped to his feet, wielding two hammers and heading in the direction of the attacker.
“This guy!”
Administrator Zhang’s expression had become quite odd.
He was no less shocked than Zhou Bao. To be the Administrator, he was by no means a simple character. He was a Blue-scaled Octopus, with the bloodline of a Primordial Fierce Beast. He had existed in the depths of the Sea Area since antiquity times. Through numerous years of practice, he had succeeded in undergoing six Thunder Tribulations in one fling and achieved the Karmic Rank of Lord of Heaven after the Necromancer’s Tribulation in antiquity times. Hundreds of thousands of years later, he had passed through the eighth Thunder Tribulation. His great strength was more than a young man like Zhou Bao could imagine.
He had seen Zhou Bao break the Celestial Demon Octo-formation with a hammer, and kill several Lords of Heaven, each with one blow. He immediately realized that Zhou Bao’s hammers were fairly strange and powerful. That was why he used his Real Body against the hammers. But to his surprise, the hammers could destroy his Real Body, even carrying a devastating force that left his tentacles unable to recover.
“I have finally met my match!”
This idea crossed both of their minds simultaneously. However, Zhou Bao always seemed to move faster than he thought. He had located Administrator Zhang and was swinging his hammers.
With a spirit of destruction, the two hammers fell straight down. They drew a black line in the air with the sound of shattering. It was the sound of space being completely torn apart by the hammers.
Administrator Zhang narrowed his eyes. He was a Blue-scaled Octopus, very large with a giant face and a rounded chin. But as his small eyes narrowed, his Qi Power became strange. He felt an unspeakable chill arising. Looking at Zhou Bao rushing toward him, he stood still.
“BOOM!!!”
Just as Zhou Bao’s twin hammers were about to strike, something weird happened.
Zhou Bao felt as if a slippery force was blocking his twin hammers so that they could not fall. The slippery power changed the direction of the hammers. He was shocked. He saw a black light.
“Damn, that’s lousy!”
With a move of his mind, Zhou Bao disappeared with his twin hammers, which carried mighty force. It looked as if he had never even been there. Only the slowly closing black space lines indicated traces of his past.
When he reappeared, he was on a high cliff three hundred meters away from Administrator Zhang. The smile on his face was replaced by cool irritation.
He had been too careless.
It had been so easy lately that he was a bit cocky.
It never occurred to him that there was anyone in the world who could withstand the accumulative force of his hammer. Although Administrator Zhang was clearly not feeling well, he had attacked Zhou Bao from behind.
It was true. Zhou Bao had been attacked by him.
In the instant that he’d found something was wrong, he had felt a chill cross between his ribs. When the black light came, he was quick to hide, but his clothes were still torn. And in between his ribs, there was a wound, from which a chill spread throughout his whole body. Even his super strong healing power could not suppress the chill. This was totally unexpected.
“Cough, cough—”
Administrator Zhang flushed with cough, his face full of shame and anger. Before coming to the Desolate Island, he had never expected to encounter such an evildoer, someone who hurt could him with just two hammer strikes.
“Boy, you’re dead! You’re dead!” Administrator Zhang screamed. He pointed ungracefully at Zhou Bao, holding the dagger that had just sent out the black light.
“I’m dead? Really?” Zhou Bao gave an arrogant sneer. Although the chill was spreading all over his body, he didn’t care. He was not afraid of poison. He had refined the Infinite Poison Banner and put it into the Innate Qi Catching Skill. It contained the Elixir of Nine-headed Fierce Beast, the deadliest poison. Thus, there was no poison in the world that could do anything about him. Though he was astounded by the coolness, deep down, he knew he would be all right soon. It was only because the toxicity was so intense. He didn’t care about Administrator Zhang’s threat.
Administrator Zhang paused. He had never met anyone so confident and arrogant.
“Since you want to die, I’ll help you fulfill this wish!” He smiled wryly. He waved his hands again and again. Numerous tentacles shot out from behind him toward Zhou Bao.
Facing the tentacles again, Zhou Bao did not despise them as before. He was going to fight back, but he still felt the chill seeping through his body. The Infinite Poison Banner had no effect on it.
“Is it poison?”
Zhou Bao’s heart tightened. Before he could react, the silvery gray tentacles were in front of him.
“Damn it!” He muttered a curse. He launched the Three Realms Division and disappeared with a whoosh.
“Eh? It’s—” Just as he broke the hollow with the Three Realms Division, something strange happened. The hollow was also full of the silvery gray tentacles, forming a silvery gray cage. The cage was so fierce that it instantly enveloped him.
Zhou Bao was astonished. The thin tentacles wrapped around him like ropes.
“Damn it, break!” Zhou Bao snarled. With all his strength, he struggled to free himself of the tentacles, but he found that the chill had penetrated his whole body. Not only were his veins frozen, but even the Mysterious Divine Light was hard to operate. He was unable to exert even twenty percent of his strength.
“F**k, what the hell is this?” Zhou Bao’s face finally darkened. The chill was beginning to eat away at his spirit, as if to freeze it. He couldn’t even think.
Things had just gotten serious!
