Chapter 415 Fathoming The Heavenly Thunderbolts
Ou Yangming and the big yellow dog looked up at the sky. They could sense the hidden incredible might among the thunderbolts.
If the powers burst out, though they could not destroy Heaven and Earth, they could easily kill the young fellow and the big dog.
A high-rank spirit beast—this was the real potency of a high-rank spirit beast. Before this, Multi-armed King Kong had shown up at the prefecture and used brute force to make three large holes in the main wall. Ou Yangming had initially thought that was its limit.
However, he now knew from looking at the dense thunderclouds in the sky what a high-rank spirit beast was all about.
A spirit beast of such a rank possessed powers that could not be resisted by the people.
Nonetheless, fortunately, a high-rank spirit beast’s powers were extremely limited in this world, hence it could not fully unleash them. In other words, Multi-armed Spirit Beast needed to pay a huge price for it, which was why it was afraid and dared not overstep bounds.
If that was not the case, even the joint attack from 100 great ancestors would not be able to stop its all-out attacks. In the end, the powerhouses would only be killed.
“Boom…”
All of a sudden, a striking white light was seen in the center of the huge cloud. The brightness was so intense that they felt like they would go blind from staring at it.
Following that, the light struck the found. Although Ou Yangming was on the big yellow dog, he could still feel the quake from the ground.
The light was curbed after a long time, and the layer of cloud in the sky slowly went away.
Ou Yangming hesitated for a while, then he gently patted Big Yellow.
The fellow understood him right away, then it exerted force through its legs and ran toward where the thunderbolt landed.
They arrived at the spot after a brief moment, and they turned slightly pale when they saw the big hole on the ground. The hole was at least about 15 meters deep, and it spread in all directions in an irregular round shape. Hot white smoke arose from the hole, and it filled the air bit by bit. Ou Yangming and Big Yellow were a distance away, but they could sense the heat contained inside.
Ou Yangming exhaled deeply and whispered to the dog, “Big Yellow, its thunderbolt power is more powerful than yours.
Big Yellow was disdainful. Even so, after witnessing the massive hole, the proud dog had to admit that the thunderbolt was a little more powerful than its stone awls. Yes, just a little—not too much.
A humongous figure followed them to the area. It was Multi-armed King Kong.
Ou Yangming curbed his thought and asked, “When you attacked the prefecture that day but stopped and fled halfway, was it because you didn’t want to use too much power?”
Multi-armed King Kong laughed. “Master, I misunderstood you back then.”
“What?”
“I saw 100 humans armed with magic skill tools and magic armors, so I thought you’re a blacksmith from the upper realm.” The giant beast was abashed. “You gave the magic tools to those people to force me to consume my greatest powers so that the world’s origin will notice me. Hehe, it’s an extremely common and effective method used in the lower realm.”
Ou Yangming and Big Yellow looked at each other. They did not know whether to cry or to laugh.
The thought had never crossed their minds, but it was worth noting that Multi-armed King Kong came from a different perspective and had different experiences. The giant beast was far-sighted and thoughtful, which was beyond their imaginations.
After seeing the unexpectedly formidable military force, the first thing that Multi-armed King Kong thought was someone was scheming something against it. Given that it was unsure about the exact situation, it chose to escape immediately so it could devise a better plan.
On the contrary, if Ou Yangming and the big yellow dog were faced with non-threatening forces, they would likely choose to fight and defeat their enemies first.
Ou Yangming shook his head and jumped off the big yellow dog’s back, then he retrieved tens of peculiar stones from his interspatial bag. When the young fellow scanned Multi-armed King Kong from head to toe, he could not help but gasp.
Judging from the beast’s build, he would need to use plenty of bizarre stones to smith an equipment set for it. He wondered, ‘I hope the Ni family’s great ancestors won’t turn into tyrannosauruses to hunt me down.’
Multi-armed King Kong was envious as it noticed Ou Yangming’s interspatial bag. It was a high-rank spirit beast, but interspatial bags were rare treasures even among the Humans, thus one could imagine it was nearly impossible for it to request one that suited it.
After all, if the giant beast was given an interspatial bag with a roughly 1-cubic-meter space, it might not be able to use it…
Nevertheless, a higher-leveled interspatial bag that could fit it could not be acquired by a spirit beast like it.
Ou Yangming’s Military Fire burned for a brief moment before the rare stone was turned into a rod. It could be transformed into a magic spear if a spear tip was attached to one of the ends.
Despite being far from falling below the mark for toughness as compared to a wooden rod, a rod smithed from a queer stone was much less flexible and could not be controlled by everyone. At the very least, Ou Yangming would not like a spear like that.
The young fellow leaped up without warning and climbed up Multi-armed King Kong by stepping on its body.
One would have been slammed by the beast’s gigantic palm for doing that, but the beast kept adjusting its muscles when Ou Yangming made his way up. This was because it wanted the young fellow to climb more comfortably.
Ou Yangming landed on its shoulder after some time and said, “Grab one end of this rod and release your thunderbolt power. Remember to only release the conception but not the real skill.”
It was a strict request because Multi-armed King Kong needed to stay in the moment before the release for a long time.
If the giant beast was slightly inadequate, there would surely be a miserable outcome. That said, Ou Yangming believed that the beast could do it. Sure enough, Multi-armed King Kong did not look troubled at all. It nodded hard and reached out one of its hands to grab the rod in Ou Yangming’s hand.
The rod was only formed after Ou Yangming smelted tens of peculiar stones, and it reached a maximum length in his hands. Having said that, the rod was similar to an embroidery needle to the giant beast.
It carefully held one of the rod’s ends such that it dared not use greater force at all.
Seeing as any of Multi-armed King Kong’s fingers was thicker and longer than the rod, Ou Yangming’s face darkened. ‘How many of those stones are needed for this fella’s body to be fully covered? Can it be done if I gather all the stones from the Chaos Cave?’
Ou Yangming later sighed and curbed his thoughts, by which he cast aside the doubts he had.
He focused his mental conception in his sea of consciousness, where his mental power boiled.
The integration of Heaven and man, the thoroughly meticulous!
Multi-armed King Kong had a grave look on its face as if it sensed Ou Yangming’s abnormality. The world’s origin would notice it sooner if it released its thunderbolt ability, which was why it had been holding back from performing it.
If it was not because the giant beast had Ou Yangming’s word, perhaps it would not have revealed its secret at all. However, Multi-armed King Kong was a smart spirit beast, which knew how its abilities could be enhanced by an equipment set, so it felt that it was worth the risk.
Hints of electric lights could be seen on its fingertips. They could not be compared with the gloomy cloud, which almost covered Heaven and Earth earlier, but the principles behind them were the same.
“Smaller, smaller, smaller…”
If anyone could hear Multi-armed King Kong’s thoughts at the moment, one would hear it repeating the same word. The thunderbolt’s power was exceptionally strong but could not be easily controlled, and the spirit beast did not want Ou Yangming to get hit at all.
This was because if Ou Yangming was unfortunately killed, it would be the first to be buried with him.
