After wandering for quite a while around this Dragon Abyss Prison, Zhou Bao finally heard some voices and sensed human spirits in this painfully silent space.
He stopped to use his Snake-like Breath-holding Skill and then dived into the black sea under his feet. There was also a ship made of an unknown material sailing towards him the surging waves. It had a mysterious sail that gave off repulsive and stinking Qi to the whole sea, and the main body was very shabby and as if it was just made by one hollow enormous black stone.
It was more like a little boat: only a maximum of three people could be in the boat at the same time, and they would have to really be squeezed together.
“This time, they’ve truly made a big mess. Those jerks from Black Wind Valley only focused on buttering up that Rolling Dragon King, but now, his son is dead because of that. What’s more, they even dragged us into this. What a bunch of bastards!”
“It is not fair to blame them. Anyone would want to get out as soon as possible after being trapped in here for so long. No wonder they came up with those weird agendas to achieve this goal. But now, the most important task is to put this mess to an end. However, it will be hard to subdue them. Even though none of those men has reached the Mysterious Realm, their combat abilities are pretty good. Moreover, they can unite as one unlike us; we are woefully divided and can fall apart easily!”
“Yeah, their strength is indeed something to be taken into consideration. We may have to fight really hard to beat them. Then, why should we step into this mess? No matter how angry that Rolling Dragon King could be, it has nothing to do with us. Do we really need to suck up to him? If we do so, will he possibly let us out?” ( Updated by NovelFull.Com)
“This is much more complicated than you think. The Fourth Prince was a son of Rolling Dragon King, a legitimate son actually. Moreover, this Rolling Dragon King is prone to vent his anger on someone who is not to blame. Given that the Fourth Prince died in Dragon Abyss Prison, do you really believe that the Rolling Dragon King would be in the mood for investigating the truth? All he learned is that his son died because some guy in this Dragon Abyss Prison here wanted to butter up his son. And that is all he needs!”
“Do you mean that he will launch the Heavenly Calamity?”
“If those bastards are not arrested and handed to him soon, he will definitely do it!”
“F*ck! This damn old earthworm! Hope you have a tragic death!”
As the two of them were talking, they gradually sailed afar. During this time, Zhou Bao was quietly lurking under the boat and he let himself travel ahead along with the boat.
“This place is really strange: The water here is no different from the water in our world, but there is not even a single living creature. Furthermore, the water flow here is able to block my view. How can this happen at all!”
After traveling for a while in the boat, Zhou Bao found something fishy once again. It turned out that there was not even one creature living on the seabed. This place looked just like the sea of death, making Zhou Bao feel a chill that made him anxious. Nevertheless, after coming so far, Zhou Bao had no choice but to brace himself and to keep going on.
The boat finally started to slow down after a thousand miles, and the water seemed to have grown colder too. Zhou Bao slowly swam away from the bottom of the boat.
After leaving the boat, Zhou Bao still felt some violent fluctuations coming from the boat.
Above him, it seemed to be a huge battlefield, so Zhou Bao concealed his spirit and went about four miles away from it. As he was emerging because he thought he had found a safe place, he received a sudden harsh head-on blow.
Over his head, a large black shadow came whirling.
“You damn son of a bitch! Do you want to break through my place? I won’t let you!”
That made Zhou Bao furious. However, he had other things to worry about: not only one weapon was thrown at him, but a dozen of heavy weapons, such as an iron hammer, a Wolf Teeth Club, a cudgel, and many other weapons Zhou Bao could not recognize. What’s more, they were all wizard weapons so they surrounded him in an instant and left him no without a way to escape.
Normally, Zhou Bao would have already used his Three Realms Division. However, he decided to wait this time. Watching the wizard weapons hurtling towards his head, Zhou Bao’s eyes flashed, and then, he quickly dashed at them!
“This guy is truly looking for death!” The attackers said, surprised with Zhou Bao’s reaction. However, they didn’t stop their weapons, because rather than thinking he had a plan, they thought he was just a crazy guy looking for dead.
When the weapons made contact with Zhou Bao, something extraordinary happened. All the attackers certainly felt that the weapons had hit the target, but in a moment, all them slipped and changed trajectory.
Just like a man suddenly tripped while walking, these weapons missed their target and fell into the sea, where Zhou Bao’s figure surfaced again.
“You f*cking bastards! I’ll punish you all!”
Zhou Bao leaped up in the air. Despite the fact that he did not get hurt thanks to the Slippery Body Technique, one of the gifted powers his Primitive Dragon Chimera had, he still felt angry about this surprise attack. What’s more, when launching their attack, these guys insulted him. “F*ck! They shall all be sons of bitches instead!”
All his enemies subconsciously knew something ominous was coming. But before they could react, a black flame already surged up in the sky. Then, nine black Fire Dragons entangled with each other while circling overhead, forming a huge shield and dropping right at them.
It was the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield!
The Fire Shield fell down with a rumble, perfectly covering a dozen of those demons. Shortly after that, nine hideous dragon heads emerged from the shield and began to breathe black fire, turning that into a sea of flames.
“Alas!”
“Crap!”
“Damn, what a fierce flame! What kind of fire is it? How can it be so powerful?”
“Watch out! Don’t attack! Just go all out to resist it!”
Cries started to fill the space inside the shield. Even the weakest one had reached the medium stage of the Blood-Changing Realm in the Mysterious Realm, so they must have extraordinary cultivations. Otherwise, they would have been burnt out by the Demonic Fire of the nine Fire Dragons long ago.
However, the situation wasn’t good at all for them. They might not have been immediately burnt, but they should not be able to hold on for too long.
Now that Zhou Bao finally got out of the sea, he got a clear picture of the surroundings and he put a really strange face.
There was a city built on an island in the sea! Well, it would be better to call it a fortress. In spite of its simple construction, its geographic location made it an important strategic point to control.
The island wasn’t incredibly large, but there were several towering mountains that raised up into the clouds. The fortress sat between two of them, with a wall a thousand feet high and engraved with various talismans and marks. This monstrous fortification encircled the valley between the two mountains to form a city. Now, shots of black light gushed out to shroud the entire city like an egg-shaped canopy that perfectly enclosed the whole city, leaving not a single crack or flaw.
“He planted such a protective inhibition in the Dragon Abyss Prison, that no shred of spiritual Qi exists at all. Even I can’t do that!” Zhou Bao said to himself surprised. He also realized that he had been lucky and appeared at the right place: the weakest area of the entire protective fortress and also the most wanted place that the two sides were fiercely fighting for.
Under the fortress, a battle between armies just like in the present world was taken place. However, there was a significant difference: the combatants were not just mere soldiers, they were experts whose cultivation was at least at Level Nine. Some of them were even Genuine Immortals in the Venerable Realm who had undergone four or five Divine Tribulations.
Fights were happening everywhere—in the sky, on the sea, and all over the seabed. When someone fell down, others would come forward to replace him.
Chaotic, bloody, unreasonable, and unbelievable!
Zhou Bao didn’t understand anything: neither why all those Genuine Immortals, who had endured four or five Divine Tribulations, came here to play an attack-and-defend game, nor why the battle was happening in a prison, especially the Dragon Abyss Prison.
However, He couldn’t keep thinking about all this with that chaotic battlefield in front of him.
When Zhou Bao used his Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield on those guys who happened to be defenders, the attacking side instantly went overjoyed, as if an ally of theirs had come to help.
“Great! Well done, buddy! Hurry up, push harder! Destroy this inhibition so that we can break into the Dragon-hiding City! Hahaha, this is a huge feat. As long as we catch those human beings from foreign lands, The Rolling Dragon King will be very pleased with us and we will have a chance to get out of this damned place. Now, be quick, get rolling!”
The leader of the attacking side, who was also a Four-tribulation True Immortal, rejoiced beyond all expectations seeing the situation and started yelling his praises at Zhou Bao.
Meanwhile, the defending side was not so happy. One Four-tribulation True Immortal of the defending force altered his expression drastically and charged downright at Zhou Bao. But just when he hurtled forward for a few steps, another Four-tribulation True Immortal from the attacking side barred his way and dragged him back.
“Hahaha, Niu Tonghai, now you’re doomed! Once we break the inhibition, you’ll have no way to prevent us from capturing this Black Iron City! Then, you will just sit there and wait for Rolling Dragon King’s wrath!”
“Humph, You Junda, you were also thrown into this prison by The Rolling Dragon King, but now, you betrayed all of us to ride on his coattails. Do you really believe The Dragon King will release you? How naive!”
“Even if he doesn’t let me out, at least he won’t launch the Heavenly Calamity in this Dragon Abyss Prison. Niu Tonghai, you better get back your senses, because even though you have Black Iron City under your control, how many times do you think it can protect you? Don’t forget that this is the Dragon Abyss Prison: no spiritual Qi exists here. Thus, how many times can the inhibition cast in this Black Iron City save your lives? You should the current situation clearly!”
“Shut up! The Rolling Dragon King is my sworn enemy. I have always wanted to kill his son but I couldn’t find a chance. Now that these guys helped me make my wish come true, I will certainly try my best to keep them safe!”
Hearing the conversation, Zhou Bao blinked his eyes and gave a wry smile. “Sounds like I’ve attacked the wrong side, but it’s not my fault that they attacked me as I got out of the water, they can’t blame me! At least I haven’t killed them.”
Then, Zhou Bao lifted his hand and with a flash of the black light, the Nine Dragons Heavenly Fire Shield was withdrawn. Zhou Bao shot a glance at the battlefield and said with a smile, “I have no time to waste on you guys here!”
In a flash, his body transformed into a dark light and went right toward the Black Iron City.
