Shut your mouth! Anger flashed across his elegant face and a blue ray pulsed from his fingertip, going straight through the Treasure-snatching Rocks device spirit.

Theres no point in killing me!

Under the blue divine light, the Treasure-snatching Rocks device spirit grew dim and then disappeared. The object is in this layer of space. If you want it, go and find it yourself!

The voice grew weaker and disappeared into space along with his body.

Moon Temple, you dont need to fight anymore, its no use. This guy has no conscience. He said before that hell block your road to illumination. No-one can stop him, even the Dao Ancestor himself couldnt come to your aid!

After the Treasure-snatching Rock disappeared, a weak divine thought entered Emperor of Moon Temples spirit.

How do you know all this? Where did you come from?

He laughed mischievously. Where do you think I came from? I was produced by the petty guy, like the thing youre after. Do you think you actually have a chance of getting it?

The Emperor of Moon Temple fell silent and went pale. Nobody at the scene said a word. His body just disappeared into the space inside the Treasure-snatching Rock.

Emperor An was quite surprised to see the emperor suddenly disappear. He wanted to go after him, but seeing the third layer of the Treasure-snatching Rock was already in a complete mess, in the end, he left it.

All of the Earthly Immortal emperors by now had lost any nuances of dignity and started digging frantically in the third layer for the mysterious object.

What actually is this thing that is making the Earthly Immortals so crazy? Zhou Bao had used his Snake-like Breath Holding Skill to hide inside the third layer, so he was not worried about being discovered. With his power, even if the Jade Emperor Sage came in person, he wouldnt be discovered.

What about the Treasure-snatching Rocks device spirit? He said if there was a problem he would come and find me, but now even if he were here himself, none of them would have time to help me!

Not necessarily, boy!

He did not come to any conclusion. A thought suddenly broke into his consciousness.

Treasure-snatching Rock?

Dont worry! I cant see your inner thoughts except when you think of something involving me, only then can I react!

Youre not dead?

I am the Treasure-snatching Rocks device spirit. If the Treasure-snatching Rock is not dead, then neither am I! the thought said weakly. But within the fluctuations in his thoughts, Zhou Bao could clearly feel one that was decidedly weak.

Even if youre not dead, you must be hurt after the Emperor of Moon Temples attack! Its utterly impossible that youve even materialized!

Moon Temple need not think that he is powerful. He was even considered the prime Celestial Immortal, even more powerful than the Thunder Emperor. But he cannot complete the Celestial Immortals Way that had been ordained several eras ago.

Several eras ago? Has he really lived that long?

What is the use of living that long when you are forever unable to take that important step? The longer he lives, the unhappier he gets. Hes gone crazy! The Treasure-snatching Rocks voice grew gloomy. Its the other person you need to look out for.

Who?

Jade Emperor Sage. Hes caused huge problems for me as well.

Dont tell me hes already arrived?

Yes. Hes here. Hes completed the Celestial Immortals Way, but he used cheap tricks to achieve it. So he needs to improve.

What is this object that everyone is fighting over?

The Celestial Immortal remains!

Zhou Bao was stunned. What, Celestial Immortal remains? Celestial Immortals can die as well?

Celestial Immortals used to battle before as well. Even if you were considered a Celestial Immortal, if you messed with the wrong person, you could die! There was a sense of hopelessness in the Treasure-snatching Rocks voice. The Celestial Immortal remains were left over from people over twenty eras ago; their cause of death is unknown. They were refined by my owner and placed into the Treasure-snatching Rock to become its core driving force. How else do you think Im so full of spirit? This was the way the Celestial Immortals made many fairy weapons.

Celestial Immortals could also die, so they too were not completely safe!

Zhou Bao thought to himself and decided that from now on he would keep a very low profile. Even if he reached the Celestial Immortal status, he couldnt go around carelessly provoking people.

And he was overconfident; an Earthly Immortal thinking about what would happen after reaching Celestial Immortal status.

Currently I have an Earthly Immortal cultivation. I dont take anyone who call themselves an Earthly Immortal seriously, but I am in no way a match for a Celestial Immortal!

Ive never let you have a genuine fight against a Celestial Immortal, its not realistic. I just want you to seize the Celestial Immortal remains at the appropriate time!

Thats different. Since Jade Emperor Sage has gotten involved, wouldnt it be exceptionally difficult to seize the remains from him?

He might be a Celestial Immortal, but he is far from being the only one in the Immortal Realm. The other two cant fight directly against him, but they can slow him down!

Why?

Because he practices the Way of the Emperor! the Treasure-snatching Rock said. Although its strictly forbidden for Celestial Immortals to fight among themselves, those practicing the Way of the Emperor can get away with it by using secret methods.

Zhou Bao understood. He had obtained part of the Emperor of Azure Heavens memory. When he broke open the messages of the Innate Deity remains of the Taiyuan Heaven, he discovered some of the Way of the Emperors secrets.

The Way of the Emperor was one of the 3,000 Great Ways and had enough power to achieve a Celestial Immortal status. But after he proved his status, he did not calmly let things take their own course like the other Great Ways. Instead, he went crazy and wanted to control everything. This caused great trouble for the other Celestial Immortals as it turned out this could endanger their lives. This was strongly frowned upon.

Because of this, they had a right to be fearful. Those Celestial Immortals sages performing their Taoist rites in Extraterrestrial Areas perhaps did not have the time or were not in the right frame of mind to deal with this. But the two Sages that remained in the Immortal Realm could not just sit back and watch.

In recent years when Jade Emperor Sage reached Celestial Immortal status, Jade Emperor Palaces influence expanded quickly within the Immortal Realm. But the Immortal Realm was too big, about as big as Heaven Realm World. Needless to say, these two had already run into Jade Emperor Sage.

Because of the size of the Immortal Realm, the Chaotic Poisonous Sea and the Eye of the Storm coexisted peacefully with the Jade Emperor Palace. But this did not mean that Gale Sage and Nine-Headed Fierce Beast Sage could just sit idly and watch as Jade Emperor Sage grew in power and tried to make amends for his past misfortune. They could not just go straight ahead and attack the Jade Emperor Sage. Firstly, it would be against the rules and secondly, it would let the Celestial Immortals off too easily, whether they won or not. These two guys did not have the best characters, so of course, they would not be stupid enough to stop the disaster coming for the other Celestial Immortals. They would certainly deal with the Jade Emperor Sage, but they would not go into open conflict with him. At most, they would sabotage Jade Emperor Sage to slow him down. It would be left to luck to decide what the final results would be.

The Treasure-snatching Rocks device spirit placed its hope on the possibility that the two sages could slow Jade Emperor Sage down.

Zhou Bao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, Maybe you are relying entirely on this? If so, then you wait for the orders with regards to the Celestial Immortals remains; dont think about asking me to fight Jade Emperor Sage!

Zhou Bao sounded so resolute about this that the device spirit was shocked. Of course Im not relying on it completely and I wont make you go and fight the Jade Emperor Sage directly. All I want you to do is bring the Celestial Immortal remains out of the Treasure-snatching rock. After all, I have been good to you and Gale Sage and Nine-Headed Fierce Beast Sage will also help you in secret!

Still so charitable? Zhou Bao rolled his eyes. He did not believe the Treasure-snatching rock at all.

Why would I not be charitable? The device spirits divine thoughts by now seemed very fleeting. Those remains have already existed inside the Treasure-snatching rock for sixteen whole eras! I have observed and examined the Celestial Immortals secrets in great detail. Theyre of no use to me. For me, the most important thing now is to be able to get rid of the Treasure-snatching rocks body and to get through the reincarnation tribulation.

What? You want to be reincarnated? Zhou Bao knew immediately what the device spirit meant. Are you crazy? This is the Dharma Ending Tribulation! If you are reincarnated, then you wont reach the Earthly Immortal state! Wait until this era is destroyed until you!

After Ive gotten away, I can be led by my master to the Extraterrestrial Area! The Treasure-snatching rock seemed to understand what Zhou Bao was saying and smiled slightly. My experience during these 16 eras is just a process that I have tempered with. You shouldnt consider me the king of Heavenly Fairy Weapons. I have been the mightiest for several eras, but in fact, I just have the background of a simple rock, unintentionally and magically transformed by my owner. Only with great luck have I managed to achieve this success. Because of my low background, practice for me was very hard and it needed more than ten years of refinement before I had a real chance for the Celestial Immortals Way. In this era, I have evolved universes and my primordial spirit has been thoroughly refined without a single shortcoming. Next, I will be able to return to the command of my master!

I see. Zhou Bao was speechless. The respect he had for this Treasure-snatching rocks master was continuous like a torrential river. Transforming a simple rock into a Celestial Immortal, what kind of power and cultivation was this?

Since your master is so remarkable, then you dont need to be worried about Jade Emperor Sage, right?

Nonsense. If my master and I help each other, what kind of refinement is that? Supposing I become a Celestial Immortal in the future, I will be looked down upon by the several guys under my masters command, the Treasure-snatching Rock said. Okay, then. I dont have anything else to say to you! I have just been shot at by that scoundrel Moon Temple. My spirit is having some problems and I need to go and find a place to recover. The Celestial Immortal remains are inside the Treasure-snatching Rock. If you have originally come from the Treasure-snatching rock, and your spirit has received the benefits from the Celestial Immortal remains, then it would not be difficult to seek them out! But its got nothing to do with me! The Treasure-snatching Rock stopped projecting its thoughts and disappeared from sight.

The Celestial Immortal remains!
