Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 645: Careless And Poisoned

“Hiss, hiss…”

Strange sounds were suddenly heard coming from the opposite crowd. They sounded like they carried a magic power, causing the people to shudder with fear.

Teng Liangpeng’s face changed, and he yelled fiercely, “What is it? Stop playing tricks and come out!”

Without warning, a black figure jumped out from behind Lu Zhenxie and the others. It was extremely fast, by which it transformed into a black light and zoomed toward Teng Liangpeng as soon as it appeared. Moreover, its momentum was violent as though it was frenzied.

Teng Liangpeng was a Spirit Grade powerhouse. He simply grunted without retreating, then he went forward and attacked mercilessly.

Those from the younger generation in the town stood beside and behind him. No matter who their enemy was, they must not retreat easily.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

After 3 continuous explosive sounds, the 2 figures separated. It was then when everyone saw that Teng Liangpeng’s opponent was a human-sized lizard.

“A lizard from the Insects!” Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up, and he immediately became alert.

In Danzhou, the most powerful lizard insect was unquestionably Ghost-clawed Venerable One, which happened to have a huge enmity toward him. Therefore, his reaction was entirely different when he met a lizard insect.

Teng Liangpeng flashed back to his original spot, and his hands were trembling. Instead of gaining any advantage from his fight against the lizard, he was so shocked that his blood boiled.

Nonetheless, the lizard did not have it any better as it rolled on the ground and had several wounds by the time it got up. Even so, when it turned to look at the elder and continuously stuck out its long tongue, the other people that saw its ice-cold, unfeeling eyes were fearful.

Teng Liangpeng stared at the lizard but uttered coldly, “Lu Zhenxie, what does this mean?”

Lu Zhenxie shrugged. “Nothing—my friend just wanted to teach you a lesson for having spoken carelessly.”

“Pfft…” Teng Liangpeng was furious. “How dare you collude with a spirit insect? Aren’t you afraid that the Lin family will settle accounts with you after this!”

Lu Zhenxie’s face changed, and he responded sinisterly, “What do you mean by colluding with a spirit insect? Hmph, don’t try to make slanderous charges against me! This is a good friend of mine, and it was interested in your hunt when it accidentally passed by, so it decided to meddle in.” He smiled faintly and continued, “Old Teng, as long as you admit that you’re inferior to the Lu Family Town for this year’s hunt, we’ll turn around and leave without making things difficult for you.”

Ou Yangming wondered, then he tugged at someone beside him and asked softly, “How are the Hunting Meets of the towns related to each other?”

The person hesitated for a while, then he answered with a bitter smile, “The Hunting Meets are a way to display a village’s power, so all of the towns will secretly compete with each other. Besides, the town that ranks first will… Gain a great advantage.”

He did not state things clearly, but Ou Yangming knew the answer very well.

The village that finished first would definitely receive the best resources, such as the qualification to hunt on a mountain, in a forest, or in a river for a whole year, and so on.

Ou Yangming would not want to get involved if it was merely a fight between 2 villages, but he was immensely resentful toward the presumptuous lizard insect.

If Ghost-clawed Venerable One had not intervened, how could there have been an unforeseen change during the construction of the interspatial passage?

Now that Ou Yangming did not know if Multi-armed King Kong, the little red bird, and the others were still alive, he did not have the slightest favorable impression toward the lizard insect.

When he turned to look at Big Yellow and nodded, it instantly became thrilled.

Similarly, the big yellow dog detested the lizard insect, but it was not as emboldened as Ou Yangming, hence it dared not act rashly in the Humans’ boundary. However, once it had the young fellow’s permission, it would be acting by his order. Even if it ended up causing a disaster, Ou Yangming would back it up.

With that, Big Yellow opened its mouth and spat out its equipment set, then it quickly put it on.

“Woof…”

Following that, it barked and flashed, where it turned into a yellow light and charged at the lizard, which was making threatening gestures.

The lizard was slightly stunned. It sensed an incoming forceful aura right away, thus it also pounced with its claws without hesitation and collided with Big Yellow hard.

It was worth noting that the 2 formidable spirit beasts were of similar sizes and were incredibly cruel. When they became entangled, only their afterimages were seen, and the scene was chaotic as flying sand and gravel filled the air.

“This isn’t good—disperse!”

Teng Liangpeng and Lu Zhenxie shouted almost at the same time.

This was a fight between spirit beasts. Furthermore, it was obvious from their auras that they were not holding back.

Once such powerhouses free themselves, they would surely cause severe harm to their surroundings. Teng Liangpeng and Lu Zhenxie did not want their disciples to be caught in the crossfire.

Nevertheless, they had completely different moods at the moment.

Teng Liangpeng was surprised yet overjoyed because he did not expect Big Yellow to actively get involved. On the other hand, Lu Zhenxie had a ghastly look on his face. He was initially confident when he brought the lizard to attack the town, but a strange and potent spirit beast appeared as a variable, so it gave him a splitting headache.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

At the spur of the moment, an intense light appeared on Big Yellow, which initially looked like it was evenly-matched with its opponents. Its speed nearly doubled at once, by which even Ou Yangming could not catch the illusory image that it turned into.

Ou Yangming curled his lips and smiled confidently. Despite that, he also had a higher opinion of the lizard’s combat power. Given that it managed to force Big Yellow to activate its equipment’s White Silver Attribute, it was probably superior to Teng Liangpeng.

The lizard went all-out to meet Big Yellow. It was not wearing any equipment, but it was tougher than the big yellow dog. After all, it had become a spirit beast much longer than the yellow dog had. Needless to say, it also envied the dog’s full equipment set.

Just as the lizard continued to attack and wanted to waste Big Yellow’s power by relying on its notable endurance, a fearsome light glowed on the big yellow dog’s body.

It cursed internally at this moment.

That said, it did not have a better idea when Big Yellow sped up out of the blue.

“Boom…”

A surging power struck its jaw. It was so fast that it could not have reacted at all.

The lizard’s body suddenly flew up. Even if it tried hard to lie prone on the ground, it was simply impossible.

Big Yellow was not only inciting a White-Silver-level speed, but also a corresponding power. The 20-points increments of the Power and Agility attributes out of thin air demonstrated unparalleled effects at this time.

Like a wheel being tossed into the sky, the lizard somersaulted in the air then fell hard to the ground, causing a deep hole to be formed.

Having said that, everything was just a beginning.

Big Yellow did not stop there as it dashed forward at lightning speed. Before the lizard could even get up, the big yellow dog kicked it again. Consequently, the lizard flew up once more without being able to resist at all.

Somersaulted, landed, kicked, knocked down…

It was akin to a cycle, where Big Yellow unleashed its mightiness to an extreme.

Ou Yangming watched the fight coldly with his hands behind his back. He was never worried about Big Yellow’s safety. The big yellow dog had not even performed its ultimate transformation. In actuality, it was capable enough to challenge someone above its rank.

With help from the full equipment set tailored by Ou Yangming and the unique transformation ability from the insect king, the big yellow could easily crush equal-ranked opponents.

After falling to the ground several times, leaving a few deep holes on the ground, the lizard was already dizzy. Blood was flowing out of the corner of its mouth, which was the result of its internal organs being severely damaged.

Big Yellow was clearly more relaxed. From its perspective, the lizard had become a fallen bird or a fish on the shore. At most, the insect could only hit it a few times but was no longer threatening.

The big yellow dog swayed toward the lizard and stepped on its head. It stuck out its chest proudly and barked at Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming smiled, but he quickly noticed a subtle move from the lizard. He raised his eyebrows and yelled, “Be careful!”

Big Yellow was dumbfounded. It lowered its head to look at the lizard because it could not imagine how the insect could still be a threat.

Nonetheless, it was then when the lizard forcibly lifted its head and blew dense fog at the big yellow dog.

The dense fog was released as fast as an arrow. Big Yellow could evade it if it was paying attention, but it was puffed by the fog as it was caught off guard.

“Roar…”

The fog instantly triggered Big Yellow’s savagery. It roared and released its gifted power instead of backing away.

As a result, an enormous stone awl emerged from the ground and penetrated the lizard’s body. Big Yellow even pinned the insect harder to the ground to allow the stone awl to penetrate it further.

Next, by the time the stone awl stopped rising, a massive hole was formed on the lizard’s body, where plenty of blood flowed out.

The insect was tenacious, but it no longer had any life left after being crazily attacked by Big Yellow.

Although Big Yellow killed the lizard insect, its body shook as it was about to collapse.

The poisonous fog from the lizard was definitely formed by gathering all of the poison inside its body. Perhaps it sensed that it was going to be doomed, thus it wanted to perish together with the big yellow dog.

Ou Yangming approached Big Yellow. He could not help but scoff as he looked at the black gas rising slowly from its body.

‘How dare this fella be so careless in the Spiritual Realm? It brought this upon itself.’

The young fellow looked up and glared at Lu Zhenxie, then it carried Big Yellow and left the scene without saying a word.

Whether or not he would take revenge, his priority at the moment was to remove the poison from Big Yellow.
