Chapter 581: Refining the Scepter

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

The scepter had not many uses to the present day, Zhou Bao could only feel it would help with the Asura Destroyer Pole, but other than that nothing important. Nonetheless, he still did not give up, as he was determined to find its uses sooner or later. Besides, carrying a fairy weapon couldn’t be harmful at all. What’s more, when he first touched the Scepter, he could feel the apparently useless Golden Dharma power he had absorbed from that Innate Deity’s skeleton react. Up until then, that power had been of no use unless there was an emergency, but with this fairy weapon, he should try to see what happens. However, he could not do that with Elder Qing in front of him, so he pretended to be cold, and talked with extreme sarcasm.

“Asura Heart-Killing Stick Technique?!” Elder Qing wobbled slightly. Afterward, he started laughing bitterly. “Aye, whatever you say, no matter what, the thing is now yours. Although not everyone is happy about this, I have already discussed with them. If you successfully bring the people back, then we’ll add in more rewards for you!”

“Another fairy weapon?!”

“Do you think fairy weapons are cabbages, that we can give it to you so freely!” Elder Qing was frustrated, “You should give thanks that you even have one. Although not everyone is happy about this, you’re indeed a weird kid, maybe you’ll crack the secret behind this and gain something beneficial from it? As for the other rewards, they may not be fairy weapons, but when you’re back, we’ll be sure to satisfy you!”

“Elder Qing, I’m holding you to your words, don’t play with me!”

“Who’s playing with you!” Seeing Zhou Bao’s dissatisfaction, Elder Qing was extremely helpless. “Okay, there is no point debating over these meaningless things. We’ve already contacted the Three Western Regions. It would be best if you could set off as soon as possible. Divine Wind Palace, Dragon Thunder Palace and Bigwheel Temple are on their toes!”

“Don’t you think that this is a good chance to tackle Divine Wind Palace?!” Zhou Bao squinted his eyes and laughed heartily. “Be it Hong Taihe or Yu Taiming, those two are some really tough guys. Perhaps, they’ve already put on a fight with the strong influence in the Infinite Star Sea. Even if I go now, I may not be able to see them alive!”

“Kid, you better not play around. You’re right, this may be indeed a good chance, but the threat of the Infinite Star Sea is greater. You’ve been there, you know the ability of the Alliance of 13 Realms and the Milky Way Realm. If we go and cause a scene now, we really are no match for them. Precisely because of this, the five biggest sects of the Three Western Regions agreed to let us use their Transmitting Formation!”

Zhou Bao listened and did not say a word. He gave it another thought and said, “Since that’s the case, then I have not much to say, but it’ll be better if I go alone. Great Dark Lord Du and Yukun Buddha should stay here. Their abilities are not enough, they’ll be a burden to me!”

“We’ve considered this problem too and arrived at a similar conclusion. They are indeed not powerful enough. Also, they have already caused enough trouble. We’ve decided to imprison them first and when you bring the people back, we’ll then do something about them!”

“Then that has nothing to do with me, that’s great!” Zhou Bao was elated. “Then I’ll return and prepare to set off tomorrow!”

“Fine, I will not disturb you anymore. Tomorrow morning, someone will be there to pick you up!” Elder Qing nodded and glanced at Zhou Bao with a deep look. “If this time around, you’re able to bring the Elders back, you’ll receive so many benefits for your future use. They owe you a big favor, even if things fall out with Divine Wind Palace, you don’t need to worry much!”

“Then, let’s hope that’s the case!” Zhou Bao did not know why Elder Qing would mention something about this. However, since he was so sure that he would fall out with Divine Wind Palace if he himself had said that Zhou Bao should just take it naturally.

Seeing the shadow of Elder Qing gradually disappear in front of him, Zhou Bao held onto the scepter tighter. The space surrounding his body vibrated and he disappeared on the spot.

“Good stuff, this is good stuff. A scepter from the ancient deities, a buried history, hehe, this good stuff is indeed not easy!”

Zhou Bao reappeared in the Sea of Divine Power. At that point in time, his Supreme Fairy Weapon, a huge space-boat, was parked in a hollow that was millions of miles away from the Heaven Realm. There was a countless number of time spaces in between. Not far away from the space-boat, there was a planet. While his Supreme Fairy Weapon was fairly large, when compared to a planet, it was really tiny. Right now, it was hiding in the shadow of the enormous planet. It was hidden in the core of a giant meteorite. It was surrounding this lifeless planet and nobody knew about that, in this ocean of meteorites, there was a Supreme Fairy Weapon that was able to make countless cultivators in a macro worlds go crazy.

By then, the Sea of Divine Power had completely changed. It was almost independent of the Azure Big World. There was a giant palace in the middle of it. The palace did not have a name, nor signs of any living things. There were only extremely thick pneuma and big empty halls. There were also two powerful fairy weapons hidden in it, the Wheel of Time and the Jade Plate of Fate.

Zhou Bao sat quietly in the center of the palace. His hand gently caressed the Bronze Scepter as he silently activated the Eight Nine Mysterious Skill. With that, he slowly led the Golden Dharma Power from his body into the scepter.

Initially, the Bronze Scepter did not have any reactions at all. That little bit of Golden Dharma Power was like a needle in a haystack, very insignificant. Zhou Bao waited for half a day and there were still no reactions. Uncontrollably, he started to worry. For 83,000 years, no one has found out its real usage. No one was able to activate it either. Perhaps, there were also people like him, whose Real Essence in their body had unusual movements when they touched it. However, they were unable to activate the scepter at all. If that was the case, he would have suffered a huge loss.

Thinking about this, his facial expression started to turn ugly. However, he was not totally disappointed because his Golden Dharma Power was in a state of excitement. Initially, it was just like a vortex in his giant Dantian that was formed by nine acupoints. It rotated slowly and seemed calm. As it came into contact with the Bronze Scepter for a longer time, the calm surface started to surge, as if being attracted to the Bronze Scepter. Some liquid Golden Dharma Power started to evaporate, forming strands of golden mist, roaming around in Zhou Bao’s body.

“Now is a good chance!”

Although his Eight Nine Mysterious Skill had managed to refine some Golden Dharma Power in the past, the quantity was too small. While the vortex in the Dantian looked like liquid, it was undoubtedly a solid. Moreover, it was harder than a diamond! During the first time using the Eight Nine Mysterious Skill to activate the Golden Dharma Power, it was like using a gold diamond to sharpen a bigger diamond. Now the situation was better. Part of the Golden Dharma Power had started to oxidize after being attracted by the Bronze Scepter. Since it was already in gas form, Zhou Bao naturally took advantage of it and used the Eight Nine Mysterious Skill to engulf them. All nine of his acupoints started working together at the same time to bring the Dharma power into them. Through the Eight Nine Mysterious Skill again, the rest was transformed into Mysterious Divine Light to nourish the body.

Hiss, hiss, hiss!

Hissing sounds came out of Zhou Bao’s body. As the Golden Dharma Power evolve, the Mysterious Divine Light in Zhou Bao’s acupoints became thicker. As compared to the practices, this time around, he easily got the effects of 10 years of practice after what took him just a mere couple of breaths. Soon, Zhou Bao started to feel his body becoming stiff. In just a few seconds, his skeleton, blood, skin, and flesh strengthened by 10 times. Outside of his skin, a resin-like crystal was formed and quickly covered Zhou Bao’s body. He was just like an insect trapped in an amber.

“What?”

Suddenly, Zhou Bao who had kept his eyes shut opened them again. His body shooked.

Plak, plak, plak!

The crystal broke into pieces and became power. He stood up straight and infinite joy was seen in his eyes. He raised up the Bronze Scepter in his hand.

Boom!

A silent buzzing sound was coming out of the Scepter. An unsubstantial explosion was happening inside it as well. The strand of Golden Dharma Power that Zhou Bao inserted into the Bronze Scepter had undergone some kind of guidance as he was trying to use the skill. The power exploded and had a reaction with the energy that had been asleep in the Fary Weapon for an unknown period of time. The Bronze Scepter started to emit faint scattered light. This light gradually lit up as it flowed along the primitive prints on the scepter’s body. Those prints gave off the vibes of everlasting and non-changing. Finally, the whole Bronze Scepter was lighted up. The cyan lotus flower sitting on the top of the scepter was also giving off a mesmerizing glow. Clear yet primitive messages were sent from the scepter deep into Zhou Bao’s spirit. His gaze also became bright.
