by Heaven's White Crane


  Now, Elder Universe automatically triggered the Heavenly Thunderbolt without any assistance nor sacrifice.

  His power and mental state were second to none among the Humans.

  Nonetheless, as tough as Elder Universe was, his fate was already determined at that moment.

  The four-legged lizard let out a shrill shriek, and it kept quivering in the electric light. When it finally lost balance, it collapsed to the ground. As the lizard fell, the mighty passage made of thin film, which was going to suck the goshawk and Ou Yangming, immediately became shaky. The other four-legged lizard cried in shock, but it did not intend to get close to its partner at all. Instead, the lizard did its best to support the passage above it and backed away as far as it could. Faced with the Heavenly Thunderbolt from this realm, its fight thought was to stay far away. In fact, it would have escaped long ago if it was not because there was a big fellow above it. “Boom…”

  Following that, several Heavenly Thunderbolts continued to mercilessly strike Elder Universe and the four-legged lizard. When the fire few thunderbolts landed, the lizard could still dodge and resist. Nevertheless, the thunderbolts eventually landed faster. By the time the fifth Heavenly Thunderbolt struck, the four-legged lizard could not move anymore and lost its breath of life.

  “Boom…”

  The Heavenly Thunderbolt did not seem to have enjoyed itself to the full. After killing the four-legged lizard, it suddenly shifted its direction to attack the extensive thin film.

  When the thunderbolts appeared, the suction from the thin passage weakened by a lot. It maintained a level such that the goshawk and Ou Yangming could not get away, but it still attracted the Heavenly Thunderbolts’ direct hits. “Woosh-“

  The goshawk flapped its wings hard and soared as high as it could when the Heavenly Thunderbolts were striking the thin passage. At last, it zoomed into the sky and broke free from the fearsome suction. On its back, Ou Yangming’s eyes reddened.

  Elder Universe was Ni Yinghong’s master and was also the most formidable Supreme Great Ancestor in the city. On top of that, he was the only human powerhouse that experienced the previous disaster. The elder could have stayed in the city, but he left the city recklessly and attracted the Heavenly Thunderbolts through the extreme method.

  As dumb as Ou Yangming was, he knew the reason behind it.

  He took a deep breath and felt his Qi and blood boil in his chest. Furthermore, the young fellow’s mental power surged like waves in his mind, and his heart felt like it was being oppressed by a giant rock. The Heavenly Thunderbolts continued to rumble, and the boundless thin film finally could not hold on anymore. No matter how remarkable the thing was, it could not resist the universe’s mighty power.

  As the thunderbolts intersected each other, the thin film fell like a small mountain. As for the forceful being on the other end of the passage, it seemed to have disappeared. The remaining four-legged lizard exerted force through its legs and jumped away abruptly like an agile rabbit. It tried its best to curb its aura at this moment and was set on staying as far as it could away from the falling passage. Ou Yangming’s eyes shone as he ordered, “Goshawk, kill it!”

  He did not name the target, but the goshawk, which was enraged, understood him right away. It closed its wings and swooped down like a rainbow. The goshawk would not have acted so boldly if Multi-armed King Kong or a potent spirit beast was on the ground. However, a spirit insect was what was on the ground. Even in terms of a physical battle, a bird would not be inferior to an insect. The four-legged lizard fled as fast as it could. After it got free from the thunderbolt zone, it instantly sensed the threat from the sky. It kept turning its head while it ran, and it widened its mouth to spit green gas at the goshawk. Despite that, the goshawk seemed to be well-prepared. While seemingly charging forward at an absolute speed, it took an abrupt turn to dodge the green light just right. At the same time, a flash of light was also seen from the spirit bird’s mouth as a wind blade appeared and hit the lizard at an unimaginable speed. Even though the wind blade could not kill the lizard, it caused the lizard certain damage, leaving a huge gash on its body. The lizard quivered due to the pain. It quickly raked the ground with all four of its claws to dig a big hole in the blink of an eye.

  It was worth noting that every insect more or less knew some tunneling skills. It was their capital for them to make a living, thus even spirit insects were not exceptions. Having said that, just as the lizard stuck half of its body into the hole, the goshawk dove to the ground and swung its claws to grab the lizard’s tail. As a result, the lizard was forcefully tugged out of the ground.

  The lizard dared not go underground earlier because it was afraid of the Heavenly Thunderbolts.

  It might be hunted down by the Heavenly Thunderbolts even if it went underground because they were omnipresent. Therefore, the lizard could only drill into the ground after leaving the thunderbolt zone at its fastest speed. That said, the lizard’s trick failed because it was useless against the experienced goshawk.

  The lizard cried as soon as it was captured into the air. It twisted its body and moved its limbs around, then it did its best to turn its head. Just as the lizard wanted to release poisonous energy through its mouth, the goshawk flicked its claw. It was such a powerful move that even Ou Yangming and Big Yellow could feel it from the goshawk’s back.

  Consequently, a larger cut was seen on the lizard’s body as a big piece of its flesh was ripped. This time, the goshawk hurled it away mercilessly. From the mid-air, the lizard crashed hard to the ground while it shrieked horrifyingly, causing a substantial pit to be formed on the ground. Before it could spit its poisonous gas, it was forced to swallow it.

  The lizard, which became muddle-headed after the fall, turned its body in the pit. Before long, it felt a twitch on its back because it was clutched by the goshawk again. Infuriated, it wanted to use a trick to get away, but it could not evade the goshawk’s attack. With that, the lizard was brought up to the sky and dropped from above, leaving several ghastly wounds on its body. After a few times, even the strong four-legged lizard ended up in a miserable state and had an unstable aura. Given that it was a great spirit beast, it could not be killed just like that. Nonetheless, the lizard knew it would only be doomed if it could not find a way to break free.

  The lizard was in a disadvantageous spot, and it seemed like it could not turn the tables anymore.

  Ou Yangming and Big Yellow sat quietly on the goshawk. They hated the spirit insect to its bones but did not help the goshawk because they thought it was better to slowly torture the insect to its death rather than killing it in one strike. All of a sudden, Ou Yangming felt a sense of crisis in his sea of consciousness. He glanced and yelled, “Goshawk, be careful!” The goshawk swooped down again as it wanted to grab the lizard, but the ground rose. Yes, it was as though the ground flew up. A gigantic centipede extended its long antennas to attack the goshawk’s butt.

  The goshawk tensed up. Just as it wanted to turn to leave, two figures hopped off its back.

  Ou Yangming brushed his hand in mid-air and retrieved twelve darts. He attacked at lightning speed and threw all darts in a split second. “Pow, pow, pow…” It sounded as if firecrackers were lighted up as every dart exploded on the centipede’s body and made it lose flesh. The centipede could have withstood it if there was only one dart but since there were quite a number of them, it could not ignore them even if its body was tough.

  It let out strange cries and curled up its initially straightened body.

  The goshawk’s eyes lit up. It was not bothered by the centipede at all, so it grabbed the lizard again and flew into the distance.

  This was Ou Yangming’s order, hence even if the goshawk was worried, it dared not disobey the young fellow.

  On the other hand, the centipede fell hard to the ground but as soon as its tail touched the ground, it sprung up as though spring was attached to its body. The centipede was not fearful of the little fellows that stopped it, but it
could not fight single-handedly if the goshawk killed the lizard. As for Ou Yangming and Big Yellow, would the centipede need to worry anymore once it got rid of the goshawk?

  It was incredibly smart, so it figured out the key right away. It wanted to get past Ou Yangming and Big Yellow to save the lizard.

  Who knew, its vision went blurry when it jumped again.

  Subsequently, it was greeted with a dog’s head, which was smiling oddly at it.

  Chapter 467 - The Third Insect

  Chapter 467 The Third Insect

  “Woof!”

  As Big Yellow barked, a giant stone awl emerged from the ground. There was only one, but it was thick, long, and sharp. As such, its momentum was far greater than that of the ten over stone awls in the past. Big Yellow seemed to be mediocre before it did anything. Once it was prepared and made a move, it impressed all. The top of the stone awl penetrated the centipede’s lower body. Consequently, the centipede let out a shrill cry, which sounded more horrifying than when it was injured by the darts earlier.

  Ou Yangming had especially refined those darts, which were magic explosive darts meant to be used against a spirit beast.

  Although no skills were attached to them, their Explosive attributes were enough to hurt a spirit beast. Nonetheless, the Insects were known to be extremely tenacious. Even after suffering many injuries, they still upheld strong combat powers. Nevertheless, when the centipede’s body was pierced by the stone awl, the situation became entirely different.

  It fell hard to the ground right after jumping halfway into the air, then it glared resentfully and in shock at the big yellow dog. ‘How can a little half-spirit beast release such a forceful magic art?’

  Following that, the centipede opened its mouth to release a blue light, and it kept moving its legs around. Those legs were like sharp knives, which could slit even the skin of a powerhouse at its rank. If one was wrapped by the centipede, even a formidable spirit beast would be crushed into meat paste. Despite that, Big Yellow backed away at the speed of light. Not only did it evade the centipede exhalation, but it also dodged its sharp pincers. Just as the centipede wanted to seize the opportunity by pursuing the retreating dog, its stomach hurt terribly. It was then when it realized that the stone awl was tougher than it imagined, such that even it could not snap it at all. The centipede fixed its gaze at Big Yellow and came to a sudden realization. It yelled, “A spirit beast… How despicable!”

  At last, it saw through Big Yellow’s hidden identity.

  Big Yellow’s concealing ability was remarkable, but it could not hide its real strength anymore once it attacked. Spirit beasts were not fools, after all. At the very least, the spirit insect was smart enough. The big yellow dog glared at it scornfully and uttered, “A sneak attack… How despicable.”

  Furious, the centipede shrieked. The front section of its body landed on the ground and as it twisted its body, the second half of its body rose into the sky. Plenty of blood flowed out from the penetrated spot on its body, causing the stone awl to be painted red in a split second. Even if its wound was being enlarged and its body was under immense pain, the centipede needed to first break free from the stone awl.

  At the spur of the moment, it heard the big yellow dog’s bark.

  Subsequently, the stone awl that punctured the centipede’s body elongated upwards. The moment it got away from the stone awl, it rose and stabbed its wound again, causing its body to be hung on the awl.

  The centipede’s eyes bulged, and it let out an even more terrifying cry. Far away, the goshawk, which was tossing the lizard around as if it was a sandbag, turned to look in confusion. It was bewildered because the Insects from the upper realm had not sent two, but three spirit insects. On top of that, they were from different species.

  It was evident that the Insects had a wild ambition.

  ‘But if the centipede was given such a big responsibility, why isn’t it a match against a newly-advanced spirit beast?’ While the goshawk was puzzled, it did not slow down at all. In fact, it sped up and beat up the lizard terribly, to the extent that the lizard could only groan in pain. The spirit bird wanted to end its fight as soon as possible so it could assist Ou Yangming.

  Having said that, it did not know even though Big Yellow had just become a spirit beast, it was truly gifted and had a better understanding of magic art.

  Needless to say, most importantly, the centipede did not identify the big yellow dog’s real identity in the first place. It carelessly exposed its weakest body part, which was the biggest reason it suffered a setback. If the centipede was not up against Big Yellow but the goshawk, the situation would be completely different. Ou Yangming sighed a breath of relief. He did not throw the remaining magic darts in his hand.

  The darts were mighty enough to hurt a spirit beast, but they were made of precious materials, thus he did not want to waste too many of them. While staring grudgingly at the big yellow dog, the centipede turned around and sprawled on the stone awl. It began to move its legs quickly, causing big shards to chip off the stone awl. As a result, the massive stone awl was reduced to half its original size in the blink of an eye.

  “Woof…”

  Big Yellow let out a timely bark at that moment.

  A deafening sound was heard coming from the stone awl, which was being tirelessly dug into by the centipede, as it exploded.

  The centipede was caught off guard, hence it took a direct blow before it could even shriek.

  Exploded shards from the stone awl struck the centipede’s softest abdomen, causing it to be covered in holes in an instant. Afterward, the centipede fell to the ground and twisted unnaturally, and its anguished look was unforgettable.

  Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up, and he gave Big Yellow a thumbs-up.

  He became rather alert because he realized that timing and tactic played important roles in a fight between spirit beasts.

  If Big Yellow had openly exchanged blows with the centipede, it would have a higher chance of being defeated. On the contrary, the tables were turned after an unexpected sneak attack.

  An advantageous opportunity turned out to be quite important for powerhouses of such levels.

  The centipede kept wriggling its body on the ground. In particular, half of its body’s cross-section was covered with holes, so much so that its body almost snapped. Any living being would be doomed after suffering such an injury, but a spirit insect’s will to live was unbelievable. The centipede arched its body after some time, then it sprung up and pounced on Big Yellow. Ou Yangming’s face changed, but he noticed Big Yellow charging at the centipede without any hesitation. At the same time, its body was enveloped in yellow light. The young fellow was hesitant, but he finally held back and watched quietly. Big Yellow had already suited up long ago and activated the Indestructible Defense on its armor. Judging from the magic tool’s mightiness, Ou Yangming supposed that it could withstand the centipede’s pincers.

  “Bam…”

  With that, a dog and an insect clashed together, causing dust and soil to fill the air. The centipede moved its numerous legs and attacked Big Yellow as though they were raindrops. Its legs were incredibly sharp as they could even break the stone awl, but ear-piercing grating sounds were heard when they touched the big yellow dog’s body.

  For that reason, the centipede withdrew its legs and widened its eyes again. Its legs were not covered in blood and when it looked at the big yellow dog, it noticed that it was wearing unique armor smithed by a human. There were only subtle and unidentifiable marks on the armor.

  ‘How could my sharp pincers not break the armor’s defense? ‘What’s that?’ The centipede could not help but freeze. It was quite knowledgeable, but it never encountered anything like that.

  “This is the lower realm—the lower realm!

  ‘Could this fella have descended from a certain powerful force from the upper realm…’ Just as the thought crossed the centipede’s mind, it felt immense pain in its body. The pain immediately spread to every
part of its body and eventually made it feel powerless. Big Yellow pressed its paw into the centipede’s body, where its specially-made paw gauntlet pierced the insect’s body and reached its flesh. Through the Devouring power, the essence and power in the insect’s flesh gushed into the big yellow dog’s body without an end.

  The centipede shrieked, and its body twisted and turned like never before. It seemed to know the situation it was in, and that it would end tragically if it could not get rid of Big Yellow. That said, Big Yellow roared again right after the centipede jumped halfway into the air.

  A new stone awl emerged from the ground, and it happened to stick through the initial hole on the centipede’s body. The centipede was in so much pain that it wanted to die. It tried to struggle, but its attacks were blocked by Big Yellow’s equipment. Moreover, the claw in its body had such a forceful suction, causing its vitality to be continuously sucked away. In the beginning, the centipede could still attempt to struggle, but it slowly became powerless because the power in its body was lost. On the opposite, Big Yellow’s body vaguely expanded because it converted the centipede’s flesh and blood for its own. The big yellow dog’s aura boiled so much that even the equipment to conceal its ability could not contain it anymore. Ou Yangming’s face changed, and he shouted, “Big Yellow!”

  He adopted the Scale Ability he learned from the bird, thus his voice went straight into the dog’s heart and was unstoppable.

  Big Yellow shuddered hard and was reluctant to leave the weak centipede alone. At last, it gritted its teeth and withdrew its claws from the insect’s body.

  As soon as its claws left, the centipede felt its vigor recover slowly. Nonetheless, just as it wanted to make a move, it felt tremendous pain all over its body.

  Big Yellow and Ou Yangming joined hands and used strong weapons to make it bleed.

  An insect might be tenacious, but Ou Yangming and Big Yellow had notable destructive powers. After half an hour, the centipede was slashed into roughly 18 sections and lost the ability to move around. Furthermore, the ground around it was covered in its blood.
