“Actually, I do not like this kind of meaningless massacre!” After killing a Devil King with a punch, Zhou Bao’s surroundings was so empty, he felt like he was standing at the losing team’s side of a football match. The floor was covered with feathers.

This was the Boundless Sand Sea of Eastern Thunder World. This had been the eighth day since Zhou Bao entered the Sea. He was already getting tired after eight days of mindless killing. Although the Ghost Child, whom Zhou Bao had named, was enjoying itself, Zhou Bao did not want to continue like this anymore.

“I think I have had enough. Although there are plenty of Devil Tribe members here, they are not that strong. Even the Devil Kings have only the combat capability of a freshly titled Immortal. This is not a threat to me and does not help much in refining my punching skill!”

“Yes, the amount of Massacre Qi that I gain after fighting and killing them is depleting rapidly too. Killing the Devil Tribe is like killing chickens, so meaningless!” Although it was enjoying the process, the little doll gradually realized that the amount of benefits it gained was depleting equally fast. This was like medication resistance. At the start, some medication were extremely effective, but when taken in excessive amounts, then the effects would be lessened.

The little doll knew that it was at a disadvantage and it was necessary for it to be on good terms with Zhou Bao the kid. This was the only way that it could recover its strength in the shortest possible time. Of course, this could take a minimum of about a 1,000 thousand years according to its calculations. So during these 1,000 years, at least, it had to maintain a cooperative relationship with Zhou Bao and continue to build up his trust in it. Zhou Bao had to conduct the massacres under its guidance and orders. Because of all these factors, it was best to maintain a friendly relationship.

“I know that you want to leave Eastern Thunder World and don’t want to be involved in this mess with the Devil Tribe. You’ve also seen how they’ve restored the Transmitting Formation. However, it cannot go where you want to go. The other side of the Transmitting Formation leads to the Devil Realm. Do you want to walk out of this Transmitting Formation and enter the Devil Realm directly?”

“Do you think I’m that dumb? Although the Devil Tribe is fated to be a part of our western sect, we are still a long way off from wanting to convert them!”

“What?” The little doll paused, completely unsure of what Zhou Bao just said. Zhou Bao paused too, and started to laugh, “Joking, just joking!”

The little doll was not fooled by Zhou Bao’s single sentence. “Just joking...this did not seem like a joke. A part of the western sect...is this kid coming up with some other plans? Interesting, very interesting...perhaps he wants to set up a sect across the whole West Wilds? That’s rather ambitious though, even the Jade Emperor back then did not even have this kind of courage!”

Zhou Bao swung his fist and destroyed the giant Transmitting Formation in front of him completely. “This Transmitting Formation cannot be used anymore. We can no longer expect anything from the one in Eastern Thunder Sect too. We will have to use the small ones to leave Eastern Thunder World. At most, I’ll just use The Black Pearl to hang around in the hollow. That is way better than being stuck in this horrible place!”

“You may say that, but I think the Transmitting Formations cannot be used anymore!”

“What do you mean?”

“Hmph, actually, all of the Transmitting Formations in Eastern Thunder World are controlled by the Eastern Thunder Sect. No matter what, the sect will not be willing to give up their possessions like Star Palace when something like this happens. They have a vast amount of possessions, which naturally means that they will hope to protect Eastern Thunder World. However, their family is not strong enough to do so this alone, which is why they will take control of these Transmitting Formations to prevent the practitioners from escaping as a whole!”

“You’re saying that Eastern Thunder World will treat all the practitioners as pawns?”

That is for sure, if they didn’t have such attractive qualities, they would not have become the biggest sect in Eastern Thunder World!” Ghost Child laughed coldly, “If you don’t believe me, you can go and take a look to find out if I’m telling the truth!”

That was unnecessary. Eastern Thunder World was already in a mess. When Zhou Bao left the Boundless Sand Sea and returned to the city area of Eastern Thunder World, the first thing he found out was that the Eastern Thunder Sect had blocked off all information about the small Transmitting Formations.

This news led almost all dynasties and sects in Eastern Thunder World to go crazy. All of them showed obvious resistance, both emotionally and physically. However, under the continued onslaught from the Devil Tribe, these dynasties and sect could not focus their resources on going against the Eastern Thunder Sect. Hence, very quickly, the resistance died down. Since Eastern Thunder World was at the brink of destruction and receiving horrible threats from the Devil Tribe, this kind of resistance was useless and meaningless. Hence, in just a few days, all small sects in Eastern Thunder World became their pawns. They were separated into groups and sent to different parts to withstand the invasion.

“Oh no, Master, the Devil Tribe’s invasion is seriously too strong, we cannot hold it off anymore!”

At this point in time, a colorful light shone from the core of the Eastern Thunder Sect. A shadow appeared in the light. “Take a look, should we ask the ancestor to step in? He has already become an Earthly Immortal. If he steps in, he’ll be able to gain control over the Devil Tribe!”

“The old man had just undergone the Earthly Immortal Tribulation less than three years ago. His pneuma has not been restored yet. If he steps in, he will definitely be disrupted by the Dharma of the hollow and induce greater tribulations!” Standing in the colorful light, the shadow rejected what his subordinate suggested. “The ancestor is the biggest pawn and strategy of my Eastern Thunder Sect, we cannot expose him so easily!”

“But we are already forced to our extremes. The Devil Tribe has now gained control over the Transmitting Formation in the Qing Dynasty and their labor force is unceasing. There are more and more high grade Devil Tribe members, and their attacks are getting stronger! Even if we gather all the practitioners in Eastern Thunder World, they will not be able to withstand them!”

“I heard that the Transmitting Formation at the Boundless Sand Sea has already been destroyed?”

“Yes, it was destroyed by a practitioner who calls himself Taoist Cundi. In the course of a few days, he has killed countless numbers of Fierce Owls. His ability is a mystery, likewise with his background. Our Eastern Thunder World could not trace his roots at all. Hence, we’re suspecting that this practitioner is not from here, not even from Easternmost Land!”

“That can’t be right, whether or not he is from Easternmost Land, he was still able to defeat the defense put up by thousands of Devil Tribe members and enter the Boundless Sand Sea. He was able to destroy the Transmitting Formation by himself. His combat capability is definitely not below mine. Don’t forget, other than the numerous Demon Tribe members, the Devil Kings are already of the Immortal Level. Their combat abilities are even stronger than normal Immortals. He was able to kill the Devil Kings, which shows that his combat ability is confirmed to be higher than that of an Immortal. Immortals are at least a practitioner at the Lord Level. You can literally count how many Lords there are in the Void Universe!”

“This guy’s background is a complete mystery. We’ve checked against the known list of practitioners at the Lord Level and none of the entries match his description!”

“A practitioner at the Lord Level appearing in my Eastern Thunder World out of nowhere. At the same time, the world is invaded by the Devil Tribe. You tell me, how can there be such a coincidence in this world?”

“You mean to say that the invasion this time round is linked to this Taoist Cundi?”

“Whether it true or not, he is unable to change the ending of Eastern Thunder World. Go and spread the news, say that the Devil Tribe is too strong for our sect to handle. Eastern Thunder World is on the brink of collapse. In ten days’ time, we’ll re-open all the Transmitting Formations to evacuate the world. In order to prevent the Devil Tribe from ruining our plan, all formations will be set in the Eastern Thunder Sect. Make all practitioners gather there. Late-comers will not be entertained!”

“After hearing this, the person below the seat of the Master paused for a while as a light of doubt flashed in his eyes. Afterwards, his brains jerked violently as a thought flew into his mind. His body trembled and he lifted his head, turning it towards the colorful light and asked, horrified, “Master, you want to...!”

“Don’t think too much, go!” The Master of the Eastern Thunder Sect interrupted him and did not give him a chance to ask again. The colorful light shone even more brightly and enveloped the whole shadow.

“Yes sir!” The Elder felt helpless. He cupped his hands together and left with a horrified expression on his face.

“What? The Eastern Thunder Sect cannot take it anymore and is preparing to retreat?”

The news spread like wildfire across the entire Eastern Thunder World. When Zhou Bao heard the news, he was apparently shocked. Although the Devil Tribe was attacking strongly and had gained the absolute upper-hand, Eastern Thunder World did not lack the forces to withstand it. Although they might not be able to fight back, one or two years was all they needed to do so, especially for the Eastern Thunder Sect, the biggest sect in Eastern Thunder World. Among all things, although their protective formation could not be compared to the Yin and Yang Dust Formation, it was not something that the Devil Tribe could destroy simply by having large numbers. Even if there were more Fierce Owls and Devil Tribes, it was impossible to deplete half of the world’s pneuma and the formation within two years. But now, Eastern Thunder World had suddenly decided to retreat. It was beyond Zhou Bao’s wildest expectations that they would throw away the nest that they had guarded for thousands of years.

“You don’t believe it right?”

“Of course not! Do you?”

“Me too. However, since the Eastern Thunder Sect sent out such a message and asked people to gather there, they should be planning on offering an explanation!”

“But why do I have such an extremely bad feeling about this?”

An extremely uncomfortable feeling lurked in Zhou Bao’s heart. This was only his intuition, but it made him uncomfortable and even scared.

“No matter how you feel, let’s go to the sect first. I think all your queries will be answered when we’re there.”
