Chapter 1041

Otherwise, back then, during the Investiture of the Gods Kalpa, he would not have even risked his own life to avenge Zhao Gongming.

Meanwhile, in the middle of Shuangcha Ridge, the leader of the Autobots, Megatron, also noticed the figure of Zhao Gongming at this moment.

Not to mention how powerful the aura Zhao Gongming exuded was, the mere fact that he could control an imminent antimatter nuclear bomb with one hand was enough to make Megatron unable to take him lightly.

Subsequently, under Megatron's command, the Autobots who had been surrounding the Fairy Sanxiao immediately shifted their aim and targeted Zhao Gongming.

"Hmph! Such petty tricks, daring to show off before an expert? Take this!"

At this moment, Zhao Gongming sacrificed another magic treasure: the Dragon-Binding Rope.

Unlike the twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls that had been seized previously, this Dragon-Binding Rope was personally returned to Zhao Gongming by Cao Bao.

One must know that before the Investiture of the Gods Kalpa, Cao Bao was merely a rogue cultivator, and that was only if the Treasure-Dropping Money wasn't too powerful.

In the Primordial World, rogue cultivators like him were a dime a dozen and completely unworthy of being taken seriously.

During the Investiture of the Gods Kalpa, Cao Bao also ascended the Investiture of the Gods list and became the Heavenly Treasure-Collecting Celestial of the Heavenly Court.

However, although he had the Heavenly Court as his backing, the factional struggles within the Heavenly Court were also extremely severe.

The disciples of the Jie Sect who were on the list naturally would not give the disciples of the Chan Sect who were on the list any pleasant looks.

This was only on the surface; there were also the Five Emperors, whose open and secret struggles even forced the Heavenly Emperor Haotian to leave behind a Three-Corpse Jade Emperor to avoid the matter.

And Cao Bao, even after becoming a member of the Heavenly Court, still could not integrate into any circle and was no different from his past as a rogue cultivator.

Originally, if it were like this, Cao Bao would not have been so worried; after all, as fellow members of the Heavenly Court, it was impossible for Zhao Gongming to target him.

But with the arrival of Wu Feng and his grocery store, everything in the Primordial World changed.

First was the departure of Fairy Sanxiao, Zhao Gongming, and others from the Investiture of the Gods list.

Afterward, Tongtian Jiaozhu even came out of seclusion to re-establish the Jie Sect.

More crucially, after this, Tongtian Jiaozhu relied on his own strength to break free from the Heavenly Dao, no longer being a Heavenly Dao Saint, but a Hunyuan Da Luo Jinxian.

It could be said that in this Primordial World, in an era where the Dao Ancestor Hongjun did not appear, Tongtian Jiaozhu was the strongest in the Primordial World.

Once he thought about the powerful backing Zhao Gongming had, Cao Bao felt the Dragon-Binding Rope in his hand becoming increasingly hot to the touch.

Now that Zhao Gongming had not attacked him, there might be some other reason, but as long as the Dragon-Binding Rope remained in Cao Bao's hand for a single day.

Zhao Gongming would not forget this matter, especially now that he had the backing of Tongtian Jiaozhu.

Once Zhao Gongming seized the opportunity, he, Cao Bao, a small transparent figure in the Heavenly Court, would be as good as dead.

The Investiture of the Gods list could indeed protect Cao Bao's soul from being extinguished, but since Zhao Gongming had the ability to break free from the restrictions of the Investiture of the Gods list.

Then naturally, in Cao Bao's eyes, Zhao Gongming had the ability to destroy the soul of him, Cao Bao, who was on the Investiture of the Gods list.

So, for the sake of his own life, Cao Bao found an opportunity to return the Dragon-Binding Rope directly to Zhao Gongming.

Even to apologize, Cao Bao brought out many treasures; of course, he did not give away the Treasure-Dropping Money, which was his foundation for survival.

Regarding these treasures, if it were in the past, Zhao Gongming wouldn't even have glanced at them.

After all, you couldn't expect a rogue cultivator in the Primordial World to bring out anything good.
