He certainly had a reason to be happy. These Space-corroding Sects were a type of Primordial Supernatural Sect, with a strange type of toxicity. They gathered together and sprayed venom, even a Lord of Heaven could not withstand it. Their Self-world would be eroded by this poison spray, and that was to say nothing of someone less cultivated than a Lord of Heaven.
Even if they were strong and their attack was fierce, when their space was eroded and broken, they had no place to survive. They suffered badly. To add, the Queen Sect did not possess any more plentiful intelligence, but her strength was enough to contend with a Genuine Immortal of the Venerable Realm. Some Queen Sects had evolved to even have the strength of a Lord of Heaven Realm, so it was very difficult for a Lord of Heaven to enter the nest of Space-corroding Sects.
But this was not the case with Zhou Bao. He has the Infinite Poison Banner. Although this banner was not a fairy weapon, it was a replica of one, an Upper Grade Pure Yang Celestial Device, with the core of a Poison-absorbing Green Bead. Although it was shattered now, the fragments of the Green Beads had already formed a mist which mixed into the Infinite Poison Banner and naturally restrained the Infinite Poison. For this reason, it was basically the nemesis of the Space-corroding Sects. The Space-corroding Sect of this world were seemingly made to refine Zhou Bao’s Infinite Poison Banner. In a short about of time, all of the Space-corroding Sects within the thousand-mile periphery were destroyed by Zhou Bao, and his Infinite Poison Banner shone all the more brightly.

So cool. It really is so cool!
 
Zhou Bao exclaimed in his heart. At that moment, it was if he had returned to the time where he had frantically used the Poison-absorbing Green Bead to absorb the poison from the legendary venomous insect in South China. It was just like the time he had first refined the Poison Cold Shield.
It was the same type of small, strange insect that he overcame. It really was so cool. Seeing this solidified world, completely covered with Space-corroding Sects, if only he completely exterminated them, he thought, and upgraded their venom, could he really increase the power of his Infinite Poison Banner, and even increase it to near the level of fairy weapons. It was all possible, how could he not be excited?
As Zhou Bao was plundering and killing like mad, these Space-corroding Sects didn’t notice anything unusual. They just swarmed towards him wave upon wave. But it was not long before a piercing, shrill hiss filled the space.

Come on then, Queen Sect!
 
Zhou Bao did not panic when he heard this hiss, but his expression showed a hint of expectation.
The Queen of the Space-corroding Sect was viciously poisonous. Not only could it melt away space, but it was also devoid of form or matter, and was extremely difficult to defend oneself against. But all Zhou Bao thought about was whether he could absorb the Queen Sect’s venom into his Infinite Poison Banner. If he could, then his banner could become even more insidious.
Of course, if he wanted to do this, he first had to vanquish the Queen Sect.
The Queen Space-corroding Sect was several times bigger than common Space-corroding Sects, but as it appeared before Zhou Bao, it was not that huge. It was about the size of an egg, and its entire body was black. Whereas common Space-corroding Sects had one pair of wings, this one had eight, so it was extremely fast. In flight it looked like a black arrowhead, zooming up to Zhou Bao’s face.

Come on!
Zhou Bao quietly shouted, while brandishing the Infinite Poison Banner.
At this time, the Infinite Poison Banner, having no idea how much poison it had absorbed, had almost completely turned cyan and in one swoop covered the Queen Sect.
At the same time, the Queen Sect spurted black venom, and extended its sharp claws to viciously slash at the Infinite Poison Banner.
Its claws were dazzlingly shiny, but Zhou Bao was not intimidated. He just smiled as a black-red Sword Qi was thrust forth, chopping off the claws.

Buzz!
The Queen Sect, smothered by the Infinite Poison Banner, let out a blood-curdling screech. It started to struggle out of the banner’s hold, but it wasn’t easy at all.
This Queen Sect and her tribe had lived in this World-solidifying Skill for tens of thousands of years, and were reasonably powerful. They were supernatural sects of the Venerable Realm, but they had never encountered before such an eccentric and valiant opponent like Zhou Bao. They had no room to resist while under the control of the Infinite Poison Banner. The initial bout of struggling did not last long before all noise subsided. Zhou Bao’s Infinite Poison Banner gradually became brighter and brighter, and the cyan light became paler and paler until it was condensed into three cyan talismans.

It worked! The venom from the Space-corroding Sect will really be of great use to my Infinite Poison Banner!
 
Zhou Bao was pleased as he withdrew the Infinite Poison Banner. But this time, sensing the queenless Space-corroding Sects becoming restless and fleeing in chaos like headless flies, Zhou Bao looked for the Queen Sect’s spirit. Of course, he couldn’t let go of this opportunity. He took out the Infinite Poison Banner again. With the essence of the Queen Sect’s venom, the banner would have even greater control over the Space-corroding Sect. Within a short time, he would completely exterminate the Space-corroding Sects within the area, leaving only a small space.

She must be there. I really don’t know what Yeyue was carrying that could have drawn so many Space-corroding Sects to come and attack her!


Zhou Bao’s spiritual mind was extremely strong. After clearing the entire space in the World-solidifying Skill, it was very easy for him to find Ji Yeyue’s tracks. If at this time she was being cornered by a big swarm of Space-corroding Sect in a thicket of bitter vine, and she had used her borrowed Green Plain Brocade to protect herself, then it would be difficult for her to get out.

Yeyue!
When Grandma Loulan found Ji Yeyue, she cried out in surprise. She advanced into the swarm of Space-corroding Sects while brandishing her walking stick. At that moment the buzzing sects dispersed.
Ji Yeyue emerged, her body covered in a cyan light. She was a lot thinner now than the last time they met, face much paler. Her eyes were closed and her expression was fearful. She had long been unconscious.

Yeyue, are you all right?
Grandma Loulan was shocked when she saw that Ji Yeyue was not in a good way. She went over to pick her up, but as soon as she held out her hand, it was blocked by the cyan light enveloping Ji Yeyue. She looked up at Zhou Bao.
King Wuyang, this!

Zhou Bao smiled. He took the Green Plain Brocade into his hand, and without its support, Ji Yeyue fell softly to the ground.
Grandma Loulan stepped forward right away and held Ji Yeyue up.
Yeyue, Yeyue! What’s wrong? Are you alright?

She called a few more times, but Ji Yeyue did not come around. Grandma Loulan’s expression grew heavy as she lifted a hand and placed her finger on Ji Yeyue’s forehead.
A flash of light streamed through her fingertip, but Ji Yeyue still didn’t move. Finally, Grandma Loulan’s face turned somber.
Ji Yeyue was born in this millennium in the Jade Pool, and the only person who has the chance of stepping into the Karmic Rank of Lord of Heaven. She was the hope of the Jade Pool for thousands of years to come. If something were truly to happen to her, then the future of the Jade Pool would not be good at all.

My elder, it seems that Yeyue has been hit by the inhibition. At the moment, it’s difficult to know for sure, but I think we’d better leave this place first!
Zhou Bao said. This solidified Self-world is, to put it plainly, the tomb of a Lord of Heaven, there’s not much spiritual qi. For some people, it’s not a bad place for it can be used to refine hoarding-type celestial devices. But for Zhou Bao it had no value at all, but he also had no intention of taking it away. Besides, it was meaningless to idle around in the tomb, and somewhat unlucky.

Yes, that’s all we can do,
said Grandma Loulan, standing up with a bleak face.
Now that we’ve found Yeyue, I’ll take her back. Please, King Wuyang, don’t feel obliged.


My elder, I feel that something is not quite right. Take this Green Plain Brocade to protect Yeyue.


Okay.
Grandma Loulan felt obliged to agree, and she understood what Zhou Bao meant. This was the Pure Yang Celestial Device that Zhou Bao had lent to Ji Yeyue. It was only reasonable that Ji Yeyue herself give it back to him, instead of him taking it from her body. This protection was only a polite courtesy. She was a Seven Tribulations Lord of Heaven, coming from the Infinite Star Sea through the Formation Tower to her own macro world. How could she even run into danger?

In that case, I will leave now!
Seeing Grandma Loulan take the Green Plain Brocade, Zhou Bao bowed and left this solidified world.
Grandma Loulan was not at all surprised by Zhou Bao’s departure. Zhou Bao was different from her. She had come to the Infinite Star Sea mainly for Ji Yeyue, and now that she had found her, she had no real reason to stay.
But Zhou Bao clearly had another reason to come here. He understood when he saw the Immortal Palace spending so much effort to compete for him to enter the Infinite Star Sea.
Therefore, she did not count on Zhou Bao being willing to go with her to send Ji Yeyue back. But as a Seven Tribulations Zhou Bao, she did not need Zhou Bao to escort her. She was very confident in her own strength. Her body was also ideal for this solidified world. Zhou Bao’s departure demonstrated to her that he had no interest in this World-solidifying Skill. So the whole World-solidifying Skill belonged to Grandma Loulan alone.
When she thought of this, even though the Ji Yeyue she was carrying to her bosom was still unconscious, she smiled.
Bao Zhou thought, 
This Infinite Star Sea was indeed strange. Ji Yeyue had been struck by some sort of inhibition, and not even the Green Plain Brocade could protect her. But the Jade Pool was one of the five biggest sects, so Ji Yeyue should not have any major difficulties. As for me, though, why do I always feel quite so uneasy, like something big is happening? So strange!
 
Bao Zhou left the World-solidifying Skill. His figure flashing continuously in the hollow, he shot into the depths of the Infinite Star Sea.
Zhou Bao had seen the Void Map of the Infinite Star Sea before, so he did not encounter any real obstacle along the way, and certainly did not gain any advantage, either. In front of him appeared a blue celestial body, and just as he was getting ready to enter it, it suddenly mutated.

Interesting, it was a lad who had just broken through into the Mysterious Realm. Such audacity to turn up in the chaotic space of the hollow, even if you’ve grasped so little of the secret methods. Do you just not want to live anymore?

Along with a voice came a huge sack, coming straight for Zhou Bao.
