Chapter 572: The Devil Fetus (Ⅱ)

The five biggest sects were the dominators of the Four Eastern Regions. But according to what Taoist Tian Zhao had said, they were merely some small sects and a bunch of green and inexperienced bumpkins in the endless void.

“Does this mean that in order to contend for the Devil Fetus, the 13 macro worlds and the Milky Way Realm will send all their elites to loot out the Devil Fetus?”

“Not really. Perhaps some d*mn Human Immortals won’t come here. Just like mortals, Human Immortals can’t leave the macro world casually. Mortals are incapable of doing so, while Human Immortals will suffer the Void Thunder Penalty once they leave the macro world. If the latter fails to go through the Void Thunder Penalty, they’ll turn into ashes, but if they undergo it successfully, their pneuma will also be severely sapped. Just because of some lucky chances and great fate, they are able to reach the Realm of Human Immortal. Thus, although the Devil Fetus is precious, it’s not precious enough to render them to go after it at all costs. Therefore, the people who come here, at most, are at the Lord of Heaven Realm!”

“Lords of Heaven?”

Zhou Bao was barely able to rest assured after hearing these words. He didn’t know much about Human Immortals, but he clearly knew that he was no match for them. However, he was not afraid of Lords of Heaven because he had defeated an Eight-tribulation Lord of Heaven once. He just couldn’t believe that such a thing—the birth of the Devil Fetus, would happen to him on the journey to the Infinite Star Sea.

The main purpose he came here for was that Venerable Black Turtle had entrusted him to see if the seal on the devil was affected or damaged. But he hadn’t expected that every 10,000 years, the Infinite Star Sea would give birth to a Devil Fetus, which would attract the two Star Areas near the Infinite Star Sea to contend for it. Neither did Venerable Black Turtle would have thought that such a thing would happen.

“Human Immortal! There should be Human Immortals in the Alliance of 13 Realms and the Milky Way Realm. It seems that these two Star Areas are more powerful than the Seven-deity Regions. But it won’t have a big difference. Since Human Immortals’ power is limited in the void, the Lord of Heaven Realm will be the top combat capability. This is almost the same as the situation in the Seven-deity Regions. However, the number of Lords of Heaven there must be far greater than that in the Seven-deity Regions. After all, the Seven-deity Regions were merely a small part of the Heaven Realm. But if we add on the strength of the Sea Area…!” Thinking of this, Zhou Bao shook his head and criticized himself for being a busybody in his heart. The power of the Heaven Realm, other Star Areas, and these macro worlds were none of his business at present.

“I know the Sealed Land of the 108 Primordial Demons. But it’s my first time hearing about the birth of the Devil Fetus. Since there is a Devil Fetus coming into the world, I guess the inhibition of the Primordial Demon has become loose, right?”

“That’s not necessarily true. At first, the appearance of the Devil Fetus truly surprised us. All of us thought that the inhibition must have become loose. At that time, the Alliance of 13 Realms haven’t been formed yet and the Milky Way Realm was not as powerful as it is now. The two Star Areas teamed up to send someone to observe the inhibition, but finally, they found that it hasn’t broken and there was no sign of it coming loose. The birth of the Devil Fetus over the next few times also rose many people’s doubts. But as time went by, people began to understand the deeds of those Devil Fetuses. The inhibition hasn’t come loose, but the sealed Primordial Demon seems to have found a loophole in it. The Primordial Demon gives birth to a Devil Fetus every 10,000 years. It will put one divine thought in the fetus and send the fetus out of the inhibition. When the fetus grows strong, it will be able to find a way to break the inhibition from the outside.

“Everyone’s attention was focused on the Devil Fetus after realizing this. As time went on, the first few fetuses have all grown up and become extremely powerful beings. Of course, there were also a few who haven’t grown up at all and were refined by some people, but those who had refined them unconsciously had become mighty beings, with some becoming the lord of a realm and establishing the Dark Sect. This made the experts in the two Star Areas terribly hungry for the Devil Fetus. Every time the fetus shows up, all the sects in the two Star Areas will vie for it. As for the Primordial Demon, no one will pay attention to it anymore.”

“What about the first few Devil Fetuses that haven’t been refined and have become extremely powerful?”

“They were refined one by one later!” Taoist Tian Zhao looked odd when he mentioned these Devil Fetuses. He added, “They were extremely powerful and almost had the strength of Human Immortals, but they were controlled and refined by those guys who had refined the other Devil Fetuses and established the Dark Sect. It is they who have promoted the strength of the Patriarchs of the Dark Sect to perfection. These Patriarchs are now Human Immortals!”

“Is that true?” Zhou Bao was shocked. He continued, “Wasn’t the Dark Sect passed down from antiquity times?”

“What you are talking about is the Ancient Dark Sect. The Ancient Dark Sect has lost its inheritance long ago. The Dark Sect in these two Star Areas, or we can say, in these 14 macro worlds, was established by those three Patriarchs. It’s called the Dark Sect of Late Antiquity!”

“The Dark Sect of Late Antiquity!” Zhou Bao gently caressed his chin, as if he was thinking about something. “It seems that these two Star Areas are different from the Heaven Realm. The Dark Sect in the Heaven Realm inherits the Uniform Dao of the Dark Sect in antiquity times. However, the Dark Sect of Late Antiquity turns out to be created by the three people who had swallowed and refined the Devil Fetuses. No wonder so many people care so much about the Devil Fetus. It turns out that the Devil Fetus actually has such an amazing effect. If Dark Lord Red Blood of the Dark Sect knows of this, he will definitely risk his life to loot this Devil Fetus!” Thinking of this, his gave a strange smile. The main purpose of his journey to the Infinite Star Sea had already been realized. There were no problems with the inhibition of the Primordial Demon. The Primordial Demon had just found a loophole in the inhibition. But was this loophole really that simple? The Primordial Demon had worked so hard in finding a flaw in the inhibition, was it possible that it did all this just for the sake of strengthening the cultivation of those people who came here to seek treasures and making them more powerful? It was the Primordial Demon, not Lei Feng, after all!

Taoist Tian Zhao grinned as he saw the confusion on Zhou Bao’s face. He said, “Little brother, I know what you’re thinking about. In fact, people in these two Star Areas had the same doubts as you do now. However, it’s already too late. The Dark Sect has already taken shape and it hasn’t given any handle to anyone for so many years. Neither the Alliance of 13 Realms nor the Milky Way Realm can do anything to it. As for the Devil Fetus, hey hey, not only the people in the Dark Sect but also those in the Alliance of 13 Realms and the Milky Way Realm are eager to obtain it. Several Devil Fetuses were born over the past tens of thousands of years, but the Dark Sect hadn’t obtained all of them. Most of them had been taken away by the big sects in the two Star Areas. These sects had also come up with some methods to receive great benefits from the Devil Fetus without having to practice the incantations of the Dark Sect. Therefore, such a situation would appear!”

“After all, everybody is greedy!” Zhou Bao sighed. If any intelligent man thought about the Devil Fetus carefully, he would find that there must be hidden dangers in it. However, no matter the big sects in the two Star Areas or the Human Immortals there, they all focused on the benefits that the Devil Fetus could bring to them. They directly ignored these hidden dangers. At best, they were confident in themselves, and at worst, they were blinded by the love of gain.

“Since I’ve already possessed the Real Body of a Primordial Fierce Beast—the Demonic Ape Zhuyan, and the Fierce Beast Dragon Chimera, which all don’t pale in comparison with the Devil Fetus. So, I’d better not get myself involved in this matter, and in this way, save myself from future troubles. Now that the main purpose I came to the Infinite Star Sea has been achieved, I might as well go for a stroll here. In that case, I can enjoy the scenery here and figure out the difference between the practitioners in the two Star Areas, the Purple Scorpion Sea Area and the Milky Way Star Area, and those in the Heaven Realm!” Thinking of this, Zhou Bao took his Infinite Poison Banner back and disappeared right in front of Taoist Tian Zhao, without even looking at him once.

“This lad is skilled at disguising himself as a pig to eat the tiger! He is quite adept at letting his opponent take him lightly by hiding his strength and pretending to be stupid!”  Upon seeing that the constraint on him disappeared along with Zhou Bao, the stocky Taoist finally felt greatly relieved. By then, he discovered that he was completely wet with cold sweat, as if he had been just fished out of the water. Even so, his heart was still throbbing violently.

“It was almost going to become a desperate situation. What is his background? Why does he have such a horrifying and toxic celestial device? It looks like the Infinite Poison Banner of the Dark Sect, but the latter can’t have such an effect. How strange it is!” Taoist Tian Zhao touched his round belly with a bewildered look on his face and continued thinking, “Unlike those who had strayed into the Infinite Star Sea, he knows this space. Are there other people who possess the Transmitting Formation to the Infinite Star Sea except for the people in the two Star Areas? The chances are quite slim. If this is the case, why only the practitioners in the two Star Areas have been contending for the Devil Fetus in this Star Area for so many years?”

Taoist Tian Zhao was quite confused. He had never expected that it was because that for hundreds of thousands of years, the Heaven Realm only had half of the Void Map. Furthermore, the Transmitting Formation leading to the Infinite Star Sea from the Heaven Realm was located on the edge of the Infinite Star Sea. It was the most remote area that was of little value, thus, no one had ever discovered it for hundreds of thousands of years. Until recently, however, the Heaven Realm had scraped together a complete Void Map and came here.

“Ah? Where is my Void Map?” Suddenly, he seemed to have realized something. He searched his chest pocket for the Void Map, but he got nothing. His face darkened and he felt very depressed.

“The Purple Scorpion Sea Area and the Milky Way Star Area have long explored the Infinite Star Sea. In other words, the Infinite Star Sea has already become their backyard. Therefore, the value of it has been drastically reduced. The valuables are already in the hands of the people in these two Star Areas. However, there are some strange areas marked on this map that are worth exploring!” At this moment, Zhou Bao held a Void Map in his hand. It was a Void Map of the Infinite Star Sea, but he had obtained it from Taoist Tian Zhao rather than the five biggest sects.“Soul-silencing Star is the closest to this place. Let me see how mysterious and amazing it is!”
