“It’s funny, you’ve followed me so long and now you’ve finally spoken!” Zhou Bao turned his head. He had noticed that guy for a long time. Since Zhou Bao first stirred up trouble in Master Jinhua’s Sea Area, this strange guy had been following him. Originally, Zhou Bao had wanted to kill him and thought it would just take a lift of his finger because his spirit was quite weak and his cultivation did not even reach the Individual Immortal Realm. However, every time Zhou Bao was ready to do it, a sense of crisis arose in his heart. The feeling was so faint that he would not have felt it if his spiritual mind had not been so incredibly sensitive. Thus, Zhou Bao did not act immediately, but let the guy follow him and casually watched him. He wanted to learn about this guy’s origin. But a few days had passed and he had not found any clues yet. The strangest thing was that the man did nothing behind him, nor ever hindered him from doing anything. Therefore, Zhou Bao was surprised by his sudden speaking.

Speaking was one thing, but even more to Zhou Bao’s surprise was that the man was here to fight for justice.

Nowadays, there were few people, or even none, who liked to fight for justice for others. Unexpectedly, he had run into such a man!

Looking at the man’s skinny body, Zhou Bao’s eyes narrowed slightly. “I do have a grudge against him, but when to get revenge is my business. Does it have anything to do with you?”

“Humph, get revenge? Really?” The man responded with a cold snort. “Zhou Bao, you can hide it from others, but you can’t hide it from me! I also know that you want to take this opportunity to enter the Dragon Abyss Prison to save your companions. And you want to kill me now!”

“I don’t want to kill you now, but I want to run away!” Zhou Bao spoke softly. He felt scared when this strange man spoke. An exceedingly unusual feeling rose up from the bottom of his heart. It was not a sense of crisis, neither was it excitement nor surprise, but fear—a kind of inexplicable fear that he had never felt before.

Zhou Bao gently moved his feet back as he eyed him warily. He planned to launch the Three Realms Division to flee as soon as the man made an unusual movement.

“The Three Realms Division is great, but don’t try to escape using it! I come to you with no malice. A friend recommended you to me. He said that you could help me, so I came to see you. These days, I’ve been following you, watching you, and I don’t think you deserve the recommendation of my friend. But since he recommended you, I’m forced to give it a try and just make every possible effort!”

Zhou Bao blinked his eyes, not understanding what the man had said. His words were like tongue twisters, making Zhou Bao confused.

“What on earth are you talking about? Recommendation? Who’s your friend?”

“Follow me and you’ll find out!” As these words were spoken, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.

“Oh no!” Zhou Bao got nervous and tried to launch the Three Realms Division. But as he moved and the Flickering Light Evil Qi spread out, a blast of a violent spatial fluctuation suddenly occurred and swept him away.

With a bang, he bumped into a hard object and did not dare to move anymore.

“The Three Realms Division is a great cultivation method, but it’s just an insignificant way in the Great Way of Heavens and Realms! Don’t use it in front of me!” said that man.

Zhou Bao had given up his resistance now because the disparity was just too big. The skinny guy in front of him did not have a single bit of Qi Power or even a little bit of martial arts, but he brought great pressure to him.

“The Great Way of Heavens and Realms?”

Hearing that name, Zhou Bao paused for a moment. The so-called Great Way generally referred to the 3,000 Great Ways. For instance, the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique was one of the 3,000 Great Ways. So was the Great Way of Heavens and Realms also one of them?

“The Great Way of Heavens and Realms is one of the 3,000 Great Ways. It is fairly ingenious. Your Three Realms Division is only a way of the Great Way of Heavens and Realms!” the man said as he gave Zhou Bao a glance.

Zhou Bao softly sighed. “In that case, I have nothing to say. What’s your purpose in bringing me to this damned place?”

This was indeed a damned place. The man’s technique was wonderful. Through his means, Zhou Bao was already in a water-free space, not feeling the surrounding spatial changes. The full-bodied essence of the world came rushing instantly, but it carried an incomparably strong chill.

That chill was Zhou Bao’s first impression of this space. But the next moment, his face changed. “Is this… the 33 Heavens?”

“You have a discerning eye! This is Netherworld Heaven of the 33 Heavens, and also my sleeping place!”

“Netherworld Heaven?”

Like Azure Heaven and Taiyuan Heaven, Netherworld Heaven was one of the 33 Heavens. The pneuma density here was no less than that of the two micro worlds, but the scenery here was totally different from that in the two worlds. Azure Heaven was full of vitality while Taiyuan Heaven was boundless, but this Netherworld Heaven was spooky! Between heaven and earth was covered with a faint dark yellow—yellow sky, yellow earth, yellow mountains, yellow water, and even yellow plants. What surprised Zhou Bao the most was that there were only plants but no animals.

Aside from the two of them, he did not feel the slightest hint of an evil beast or even an ordinary wild beast here.

“Netherworld Heaven has no living creatures with spiritual intelligence, only the Spiritual Qi of the Netherworld and five great rivers!” As if he had seen the confusion in Zhou Bao’s eyes, the man smiled faintly. “Come with me!”

Zhou Bao did not ask any more questions, though his mind was full of doubts.

The 33 Heavens was just a legend. Even great practitioners in antiquity times might not have seen one or two in their lifetime, yet, counting this Netherworld Heaven, he had seen three. Besides, he even wanted to seize control of one of them. If other practitioners in the world knew that, they would think that he was talking nonsense.

“Sit down!”

As he was thinking that, the man’s voice came to him. Zhou Bao looked around and discovered that they had reached a low hill. There was a platform on the top of the hill with several stone stools scattered over it, and no one knew how many years they had not been used. The man walked up to those stone stools and beckoned him to sit down.

“I’ve just woken up, and there is nothing good for entertainment in Netherworld Heaven. Take a seat first!”

“You’ve really been asleep for a long time!” Zhou Bao sat down with a smile. By this time, he was completely calm. Since the man had not attacked him at first, everything was negotiable and a fight could be spared. Hence, he had no need to be tense or worried and could just take it easy and talk.

“I know you have a lot of questions on your mind, but I don’t have enough time to answer your questions because I don’t have much time. I’ll just make a long story short!” Seeing that Zhou Bao had sat down, the man spoke right away.

“I need help with something. But I slept too long, and some of my old friends who can help me can’t be found now, so I came to you!”

“Why me?”

“As I said, someone recommended you to me!”

“Who?”

“The little turtle that imparted the general principle of the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique to you. He said that your fate was so strange that even the weird child could not see it clearly, so you should be the best choice!”

“The general principle of the Nine Heaven Yuan Yang Technique?” Zhou Bao was startled, and the image of the Stranger in thunder came to his mind. Now his vision was much wider than it had been in past years, so he knew that what he had seen was a Genuine Immortal undergoing the Thunder Tribulation. He did not know how many Thunder Tribulations had he undergone, but now, according to the picture in his memory, the Stranger’s relaxed appearance and power indicated that his cultivation was in the Venerable Realm at least.

The Stranger was in the Venerable Realm. And with this man being his friend, should he also at least be in the Venerable Realm?

But how many tribulations did it take for a Genuine Immortal like him to reach that level? Being hidden and not showing, how could Zhou Bao not notice a trace of abnormality?

“That little turtle has a good impression of you. But I don’t think he has a good eye. You’re not a nice guy!”

“Senior, get straight to the point. I’ve never thought that I’m a nice guy!”

“You’re honest!” The man looked at Zhou Bao and said, “I am looking for something that is now in the hands of the Sea Emperor. I want you to help me get it!”

His words almost knocked Zhou Bao down into the big river at his feet.

“Get something from the Sea Emperor?”

Zhou Bao might not have been so surprised if he had not known about the strength of the Sea Area. Now he had a basic understanding of the strength there and thought he had misheard him.

“Senior, you must be kidding! You might as well ask me to steal the Ranking of Demons and Immortals!”

“You’re right! I want you to help me bring back the Ranking of Demons and Immortals.”

Zhou Bao blinked and laughed out of fury. “Senior, you can’t make such a joke. You’re asking me to get the Ranking of Demons and Immortals? Why don’t you just slap me to death?”

“I’m not asking you to get it right now. I know that you’re trying to get control of Azure Heaven!” The man looked at Zhou Bao and said some words that appalled him. He knew about even this! Was there anything that he did not know? Zhou Bao finally had an impulse to kill himself. He looked at this guy in front of him in horror as he asked, “Who the hell are you? What’s your connection with Green Spirit?”

“Green Spirit? Oh, that lucky Grand Demon. I have nothing to do with him! And it’s not him who told me about you!” The man shook his head. “Don’t be so shocked. I know everything about you so far, including the bloodline of the Fiery Eyes and the plot of Azure Heaven. Of course I also know that you killed a Level Eight expert, Xue Wuya, with Level One strength when you were a child!”
