A bright beam of golden light soared from Zhou Bao’s fingers into the air, and flashed like a golden meteor. Then it turned into a large seal about 100 feet in diameter and dropped violently to the ground.

BOOM!!!

With a loud noise and a violent shaking of the earth, a small island about five kilometers wide, located in the sea, was smashed into bits and disappeared beneath the waves.

Hey, are you done? There aren’t that many islands left in my territory for you to bomb. This is already the fifth island!


Just listen to yourself, you’re the Administrator who runs a part of the Sea Area. Even if you don’t have 10,000 islands of this kind, you have at least 8,000. I merely destroyed five islands!


Yes, you’ve only destroyed five islands so far, but you’re on a roll right now, and along the way, you’re likely to destroy 50, 500, 5,000. When will you stop?
Standing beside Zhou Bao, Administrator Zhang smiled sadly.
As an Administrator of the Sea Area, he was second only to the Prime Ministers of the Office of Political Affairs, who were rarely around. Therefore, the Administrator was as domineering as the Emperor in the Sea Area, but now he followed Zhou Bao around, like a newly married woman who was being bullied.

Alright, I will stop. I have just finished refining this magic weapon, so I wanted to try it out. Since you value your territory so much, I will stop my trials!
Zhou Bao gave a slight wave, and the gold seal obediently returned to his hand and simultaneously became smaller and smaller. At last it became like a little paperweight, and disappeared.

It’s good stuff. It is as powerful as a fairy weapon, isn’t it?


In terms of its attacking powers, the ordinary Taihao Fairy Weapon is inferior to it!
A flash of complacency crossed Zhou Bao’s face. After the Flipping Sky Seal had ascended to the Advanced Level, its power could be fully utilized and it was indeed comparable to the fairy weapon.

It really is a formidable weapon. You have achieved impressive results because of the good stuff you have on hand, King Wuyang!
In the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode, Administrator Zhang had seen many incredible resources belonging to Zhou Bao, but Zhou Bao had not used this gold seal at that time. And now, Zhou Bao was showing off this fairy weapon, using it like a brick to smash stuff. Administrator Zhang turned green with envy.

Cut the crap. I’m not here for your flattery!


I know you’re coming to see the Sea Emperor about the Ranking of Demons and Immortals. But I have never seen His Majesty, and it would be difficult for me to arrange a meeting with His Majesty for you.


Is it really that difficult?


It’s a matter of ability!
Administrator Zhang smiled bitterly,
In the Sea Area, only the Prime Ministers of the Office of Political Affairs can contact His Majesty, and His Majesty controls the Sea Area through them. I’m just a little Administrator!


Then take me to the Prime Ministers!
Speaking of the Prime Ministers, Zhou Bao’s eyes twitched a few times. With the Office of Political Affairs, Prime Ministers and even Administrators in the Sea Area, the official positions were similar to those of the Song dynasty in his previous life. He wondered if the Sea Emperor had also traveled through time from the Song dynasty in his previous life.
With these thoughts going through his mind, Zhou Bao followed Prime Minister Wan to a rather odd place.

In fact, it’s fine to take you to meet the Prime Ministers. What we Demon tribe value most is power. Your power would have surpassed the Prime Ministers, so it’s not a problem for you to meet them. But what you’re going to do is troublesome. The news that you killed the Fairy Pool Hunter and took the Immortal-burying Pool in the Seven-deity Regions has spread all over the Heaven Realm World. And a few days ago, the Dharma of the Heaven Realm World suddenly changed in a strange way. Those of us who like to go to the infinite spaces have felt the changes in the infinite spaces around the Heaven Realm World. Obviously, you have given the Immortal-burying Pool to Fate Creation Boy. With the Immortal-burying Pool, the Golden Book of Fate must also be his possession. Now the Ranking of Demons and Immortals is all he needs. But the Ranking of Demons and Immortals is tied to the interests of the entire Sea Area, so it is not so easy to give it to you. Now there are proposals in the Sea Area to capture the Seven-deity Regions!


I know about that. The Sea Area around the Seven-deity Regions has not been peaceful recently.
Zhou Bao nodded and said,
I can assure you that this time we are only trying to reassemble the Fairy Weapon of Fate so that the Heaven Realm World will be able to defend itself, and the interests of the Sea Area will not be damaged!


That’s what you say, but it is the others that have to be convinced!
Administrator Zhang gave Zhou Bao a wry smile and added,
The Demon tribe in the Sea Area has been accustomed to freedom. No one wants another ruler!


Fate Creation Boy is not a man who likes to dominate other people!


Who knows, it’s none of my business anyway. If you want to see His Majesty and get the Ranking of Demons and Immortals, you have to convince the Prime Ministers first!


Maybe I don’t have to convince them.
Zhou Bao slightly shook his head and explained,
The Ranking of Demons and Immortals is in the hand of the Sea Emperor. I need to meet the Prime Minister of the Office of Political Affairs in order to see the Sea Emperor, but their opinions aren’t important.

Hearing Zhou Bao’s words, Administrator Zhang felt a chill in his heart. Apart from the strength of the Prime Ministers in the Sea Area, their status was sublime, second only to the Sea Emperor, higher than that of the Leader or even the hidden Old Weirdos of super sects in the Seven-deity Regions. However, these Prime Ministers, in Zhou Bao’s eyes, seemed to be a group of unimportant people.

Well, we have different strengths and different visions, so our values are totally different!
 
Administrator Zhang sighed silently and gave up trying to persuade Zhou Bao.
The Sea Area was vast, but, Administrator Zhang and Zhou Bao were able to travel from one place to another in only a couple of breaths. Zhou Bao originally intended to try out the power of the fully refined Flipping Sky Seal, whilst enjoying the scenery of the Sea Area at the same time, so they advanced at a slow speed. But there was only water to be seen all the way, except for the island. He was a bit tired after a whole day of watching the same scenery. That, plus the gloomy subject they were discussing made both Zhou Bao and Administrator Zhang quicken their pace. After a few moments, they reached a rather strange place.

This is the resting place of Prime Minister Wan. He’s the closest Prime Minister to my territory. If you want to meet His Majesty, you have to meet him first!

It was an isolated island, with black smoke and a smell of sulfur. The ground here had been scorched black and there were numerous cracks in the ground, from which flashed sanguine lights. Upon seeing these lights, Zhou Bao knew that these were the smells of the underground fire vein.
This isolated island was a volcanic island, and probably had an active volcano.
But that was it. Zhou Bao was curious about the island when he saw that the active volcano looked like the head of a dark and ferocious wolf from afar.

King Wuyang, please forgive me for not being here to welcome you. I’m afraid I have been a poor host!
Just as Zhou Bao was standing in the air, and Administrator Zhang was about to inform the island of their coming, a hearty laugh rang out. In a flash, a man appeared before them.

Prime Minister Wan!
At the sight of the man, Administrator Zhang bowed so deferentially that his body resembled that of a curved prawn.

No need for the pleasantries, Administrator Zhang!

He was a thin, tall man in his forties, wearing a long, faded gray gown. His features were plain and his eyes soft and warm, giving off an impression of comfort and sincerity.
Zhou Bao was certainly not deceived by his appearance, but this first meeting did not give him a bad impression of him either.

I’m Zhou Bao, please excuse me for my unexpected visit, Prime Minister Wan!


Please don’t stand on ceremony. It’s my pleasure to have you visit me, King Wuyang!

Prime Minister Wan treated Zhou Bao with great courtesy. After killing the Fairy Pool Hunter and getting the Immortal-burying Pool, Zhou Bao had risen in rank to a superior practitioner in the Heaven Realm World from a superior practitioner in the Seven-deity Regions. The Fairy Pool Hunter was no ordinary person. He had mastered a part of the Immortal-burying Pool which was a Fairy Weapon of Fate. An ordinary Human Immortal was no match for him. In some ways, his mastery of the Power of Fate was equivalent to the mastery of the practitioner’s lifeline of a macro world. As long as he did something to the Fairy Weapon of Fate, and the practitioners’ Divine Tribulation, the apperception of the Way of Heaven would be completely different. The Prime Ministers of the Sea Area were only equal to him but could not beat him. However, Zhou Bao had managed to kill such a strong enemy, and even seized his Fairy Weapon of Fate. That was enough to make the Prime Ministers of the Sea Area stand in awe of him. What was more, they had received the instructions from the Sea Emperor that they should take Zhou Bao to see Sea Emperor no matter whom he came to. They did not dare to scorn a man so valued by the Sea Emperor, so Prime Minister Wan acted very politely towards Zhou Bao.

King Wuyang, I know why you are here. I have received His Majesty’s instructions the day before yesterday. His Majesty has ordered that should I ever see you, I should take you to him. If you have anything to ask, please talk to His Majesty directly!


Eh?
Administrator Zhang was obviously dumbfounded by what Prime Minister Wan said. It never occurred to him that Zhou Bao had truly given the Sea Emperor cause to be alarmed.
Zhou Bao looked as if he had known about it already. He said,
Alright and I apologize for bothering you, Prime Minister Wan!


Wait for me here, Administrator Zhang. I have something to tell you after I take King Wuyang to His Majesty.


Yes!
Administrator Zhang bowed his head. Facing the Prime Minister, he could only keep his head down and did not dare to speak much.
