The Desolate Island was located at the vast Sea Area and belonged to the Sea Area. There were lots of islands there. The size of these islands varied, some were small and some big. Some of them were inhabited by creatures. It was a complex situation at the Sea Area. However, when people really understood how the authorities ran the organization of the Sea Area, they would find that the affairs of the boundless Sea Area were not complicated at all.

The Sea Emperor divided the immense Sea Area into many sub-areas which were like the states of the land. They were similar to the provinces in Zhou Bao’s previous life where each sub-area was managed by a special Grand Demon. Every Grand Demon had the capability of a Lord of Heaven Realm. Take the Five-dragon Regions where Zhou Bao had passed by, as an example; it only had an area as small as a city. Though the Sea Area was a huge place with many experts, not every city needed a Lord of Heaven. However, the Five-dragon Regions was a little bit special in terms of its location because it was in the Seven-deity Regions. Without a Lord of Heaven, this area would have gone out of control. Therefore, the Sea Emperor arranged for five Lords of Heaven to be there. Even though there were not many Lords of Heaven in the whole Seven-deity Regions, five Lords of Heaven kept guard here. That was the reason why the experts of the Seven-deity Regions kept away from the region.

Above the sub-areas, there was actually a unified regulatory management institution which was equivalent to the imperial court.

Unlike the imperial court, the position there was decided by one’s ability. In addition, there was fierce competition among the Demon tribe at the Sea Area. This tribe had been around for a very long time. Every Grand Demon who had reached such a level was a very cunning creature. Compared with the human beings in the Seven-deity Regions, they were more devious. Hence, the big Sea Area was always managed well.

Desolate Island was the biggest island at the Sea Area with an area equal to the Central Mainland Region and it played an important role in this Sea Area. Thus, this Sea Area was also known as the Desolate Sea Area.

From the perspective of its geographical position, Desolate Sea was at the remote southwest part of the Seven-deity Regions. It was also lacking in pneuma and was inferior to the Seven-deity Regions. In the big Sea Area, Desolate Sea also had a bad reputation. Those Demon tribes that had fallen out of favor had all been banished there.

However, in recent days, the Desolate Sea Area had suddenly become popular.

A Grand Demon at the Lord of Heaven Realm dominated Desolate Sea Area. This Grand Demon was a cuttlefish who had practiced in the deep sea. After undergoing many difficult trials, he finally reached the Genuine Immortal Karma Rank. Luckily, after he became a human, he had a handsome face. He did not have a name at first, so he named himself Young Master An. However, he had a bad habit. He enjoyed dallying with women. He would flirt with the good looking female demons.

Consequently, he offended many demons.

Thanks to his extraordinary talent, he sailed through the Thunder Tribulation six times before he finally reached the Karmic Rank of the Lord of Heaven. In the Sea Area, once someone had reached the Karmic Rank of the Lord of Heaven, it was similar to the rank of a scholar who had succeeded in the civil service examination in Zhou Bao’s previous life. The Lords of Heaven certainly occupied an important position in the big system of power in the Sea Area. They were powerful, sly and ferocious. In many ways, they were united as one.

This was a privileged group. Regardless where one was from or whatever one’s background was, he could only become a member of this interest group if he reached the Lord of Heaven level. Each Lord of Heaven, whether good or bad, would then own a territory with corresponding power. It was true of Young Master An.

However, he had offended and seduced too many demons, so he was not very popular. Finally, he was sent to the Desolate Sea.

To the other Lords of Heaven, being in this hellish place was no different from being exiled. But Young Master An did not care too much. His focus was on the beautiful women there. He did not mind where he was as long as there were beauties there. Although the Desolate Sea Area was bleak and desolate, it had an area of thousands of kilometers wide. Within this big area, there were many beautiful demons. Therefore, Young Master An enjoyed an easy life here. Every night a beautiful female demon accompanied him.

What made him angry was that his happy days came to an end a month ago. All this could be attributed to the devil brat at Desolate Island.

Three years ago, a demon from the Seven-deity Regions came to Desolate Island. He came to Desolate Island to hide and heal himself. At that time, Young Master An did not pay much attention to him. One reason was that he was an easy-going person. The other reason was that he did not want to tire himself out with micro-managing everything at the big Desolate Sea.

However, later, everything gradually went wrong. It seemed that this demon had a remarkable ability. He had been there for only a short while and had started building up his influence. Young Master An also did not attach much importance to him because there were too many things happening at that time. There were lots of islands in the Sea Area. Most of them were not much smaller than any of the regions in the Seven-deity Regions. Many demons also lived on those islands. Seriously speaking, those demons and islands should be under the charge of the Sea Area. However, the Sea Area ignored them because they were not the demons from the sea. The Sea Area let them have their own way only as long as they did not create any trouble in the Sea Area. These monsters built up many of their own influences on the big islands, like what the human beings did in the Seven-deity Regions. Some influences were countries. Some were only hills. Those monsters respected each other based on their own level. They had lesser needs than humans. Therefore, even though there were many influences outside the Sea Area, they did not often start a battle or a massacre. That led to a prosperous situation among the influences of the Demon tribe outside the Sea Area. There were also some experts at Lord of Heaven Realm. In terms of the strength, they were better than the people in the Seven-deity Regions.

This was the case of the demon who came to Desolate Island. Young Master An did not pay any attention to him. After the demon had set up his own small influence, he sent many beauties and sexy ladies to Young Master An as gifts. He was aware of Young Master An’s weaknesses. Although he had some capabilities, his influence was just a low end influence at Desolate Island. Because of his actions, Young Master An was happy to help him secretly.

He had never expected that this demon would create such problems for him!

Ten days ago, a rumor started going around the Desolate Sea Area. It said that the entrance of the Thunder Emperor’s temporary imperial abode was at Desolate Island. He was one of the strong emperors among the 99 Emperors from antiquity times. The demon came to Desolate Island to look for the Treasure in the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode. Apart from him, Administrator Zhang also arrived at the Sea Area.

The Administrator had an influential backing. It was mentioned before that the Sea Area were divided into many parts, like the provinces. The Sea Area was vast. The sea in the Sea Area was much large than the continent. Even in many places, the area of a province was far beyond that of the Seven-deity Regions. Take the Desolate Sea Area as an example. It was three times larger than the Seven-deity Regions. The Grand Demons and the Lords of Heaven who controlled such a Sea Area were called as the Pacification Officer in the Sea Area. For instance, Young Master An was a Pacification Officer in the Desolate Sea Area. He gave him a name Young Master An and he was also titled as the Pacification Officer. However, it sounded strange if he was called the Pacification Officer An. It was the reason why nobody called him the Pacification Officer An. They just used his original name: Young Master An.

The Administrator was above the Pacification Officer. They did not only manage one province or a Sea Area. They normally managed dozens of Sea Areas and had complete control over everything. The Desolate Sea Area was under the charge of Administrator Zhang. He was responsible for more than 70 such Sea Areas. He did not manage areas like the Desolate Sea Area which was not welcomed by the Pacification Officer because he could not gain any profits there. However, this time round he had no choice but to administer to this area. After all, if the entrance of the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode was located in the Sea Area which was under his management, how could that not make him feel excited and joyful?.

Having abundant resources in the Sea Area, the experts were widely respected here. Some had strict rules while some did not. Each expert owned a fixed territory and profit which ordinary people could not interfere with. For example, when a Pacification Officer found some Treasure in the Sea Area, other Pacification Officers would not have a share. At least, they could not directly have a hand in it. However, Administrator Zhang, as their superior leader, had a reason to intervene in it because the Desolate Sea was under his territory and administration scope. Above Administrator Zhang was the chancellor. The chancellor was only a form of address in the Sea Area. This position was similar to the Prime Ministers in the human line of rule; they were the actual controllers at the big Sea Area.

There were totally nine Prime Ministers in the vast Sea Area, collectively known as the Nine Chancellors.

Young Master An, Administrator Zhang and Prime Minister Wan!

The three were in the same boat. They were the legal owners of Desolate Island. Prime Minister Wan was powerful. Administrator Zhang had many treasures. However, compared to the Thunder Emperor’s touring abode, what they possessed was just a small amount. The Pool of Thunder Tribulation from the legend would be extremely useful to them. Prime Minister Wan’s power was unknown. Either Administrator Zhang or Young Master An was also the Demonic Immortal at Lord of Heaven Realm. It was only a dream for them to experience nine Thunder Tribulations and reach the Realm of Human Immortal. But their dream would come true only if they could get the Pool of Thunder Tribulation.

From antiquity times, the Thunder Emperor controlled the Thunder Tribulation, so he had great authority. It was easy for him to get through the nine Thunder Tribulations that scared the Lords of Heaven, and which had made Administrator Zhang and all the Demonic Immortals in the Sea Area go nuts.

To avoid the unexpected, Administrator Zhang brought over 30 Lords of Heaven to Desolate Island when he heard the news. He also set up the Celestial Demon Octo-formation there.

It was the formation where Zhou Bao, along with his group, had once been caught in when they passed through the hollow. Only Zhou Bao broke it with a hammer.
