Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 453 - Big Yellow Advances

Chapter 453 Big Yellow Advances

It was the Heavenly Thunderbolt—the real Heavenly Thunderbolt had struck.

Even from quite a distance away, Ou Yangming could sense the enormous energy descending from the sky. It was as though it was going to wipe everything off the face of Earth.

The destructive power was incredibly fearsome as it was the rage from Heaven and Earth. In comparison, the thunderbolts gathered by Multi-armed King Kong from the universe’s spiritual power were child’s play.

All of a sudden, the goshawk stopped flying and floated in mid-air. It looked behind as it was dumbfounded.

“H-how can the thunderbolts of this world be so powerful…” It mumbled and thought, ‘Even the ones in the upper realm aren’t so forceful.’

“What did you say? Is this thunderbolt power different?” Ou Yangming’s heart sank.

The goshawk responded helplessly after some thought, “Master, this is the lower realm, after all, so it can’t be compared with the upper realm. That said, judging from the thunderbolts gathered, it seemed equivalent to the ones spirit beasts face when they advance to higher levels.”

Ou Yangming took a deep breath and felt a chill in his heart.

“Why is that so?”

“I have no idea.” The goshawk did not have an answer. “That little fella doesn’t carry a unique bloodline, does it?”

Ou Yangming was struck with a thought. He instantly recalled Big Yellow’s usual way.

The big yellow dog was a half-spirit beast, but it never acted moderately toward Multi-armed King Kong and the goshawk. In fact, it often provoked them too.

An ordinary half-spirit beast could not have behaved like that. Using the half-spirit beasts from the immense forest as an example, it was evident that the big yellow dog was unordinary.

Back then, Ou Yangming had unintentionally or subconsciously ignored this.

Now, he hoped that Big Yellow truly carried some sort of immortal bloodline because that was the only way it could withstand the intense Heavenly Thunderbolts.

The goshawk could not help but worry when it sensed Ou Yangming’s anxiousness and noticed his clenched fists. This was because it was afraid the young fellow would be so furious that he would order it to save the dog regardless of the thunderbolts.

If Ou Yangming insisted on doing that, the goshawk dared not disobey him.

Nonetheless, it might be doomed once it entered the thunderbolt zone. By then, not only would he fail to save the big yellow dog, but it would also get them all killed. Fortunately, Ou Yangming fixed his gaze on the thunderbolt area nervously but did not act rashly. The goshawk was relieved.

The Heavenly Thunderbolts rumbled and struck the lonely mountain, whereas Big Yellow roared to express its discontent. It wanted to challenge Heaven and Earth, and it wanted to test its fate. No matter what was stopping it, it was going to tear it apart with its claw.

As the thunder became more deafening, Big Yellow raised its voice as well to show a strong impression.

Ou Yangming and the goshawk began to react differently. The former was surprised but overjoyed, whereas the latter was in admiration.

Regardless of whether the big yellow dog could survive the Heavenly Thunderbolts, its performance in the face of the thunderbolt powers gained the goshawk’s respect.

The thunderbolts did not gather for a long time; they stopped after half an hour. Following that, the clouds that assembled from all directions were nowhere to be seen.

Ou Yangming tapped the goshawk and urged it. “Quickly go over!”

The goshawk was slightly hesitant. Although the clouds in the sky had cleared, there were remaining thunderbolt powers.

If Ou Yangming and the goshawk suddenly barged into the zone, they might trigger a chain reaction, causing the clouds to gather again. Nevertheless, the goshawk could sense the young fellow’s eagerness at this moment, hence it flew into the danger zone after a moment of hesitation.

The goshawk had tried to control its speed, but they spotted the mountain after just a brief moment.

By now, the mountaintop was full of pott-holes, and one of the corners had been hit off by the thunderbolt powers.

From the side, it looked like an invincible giant saber had slashed the mountain into half from this angle.

At the mountaintop, Big Yellow lay on the ground like a dead dog. Due to the magic tools on its body, Ou Yangming could not tell if it was dead or alive, but the fact that it was not moving was heart-wrenching.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow were spiritually connected.

However, he realized at this moment that the connection had been cut off as though Big Yellow no longer existed.

It made him feel uneasy, and he could not wait to reach the big yellow dog at once. As soon as the goshawk was near the mountain, Ou Yangming hopped off as he could not wait anymore. He stirred up a strong wind in mid-air, which was a result of a skill he learned from Ni Yinghong. Even though the skill was far from the goshawk, it was enough to help slow down the young fellow’s body.

The goshawk was taken aback at first, but it was soon unbothered.

Given its master’s real identity, it would only be a joke if he would get injured from jumping off from this distance.

Ou Yangming flashed toward Big Yellow the instant he landed. He was finally relieved after he carefully checked it.

The big yellow dog was still breathing, but Ou Yangming felt extremely powerless. Fortunately, the fellow was safe and sound, or he would not live in peace for the rest of his life.

When Ou Yangming scanned his surroundings, he noticed that the pieces of the Earthly Dragons Beast’s flesh were gone. He felt glad after he saw the blood on the big yellow dog’s paw gauntlet. Luckily, he was smart enough to have retrieved the flesh before he left.

Without the energies from the dragon beast’s flesh and blood, Big Yellow might not have pulled through.

Ou Yangming was suddenly moved. He could sense that the big yellow dog was slowly breathing heavier, which meant that it was slowly recovering

Before long, Big Yellow breathed louder, which almost sounded like snores. Ou Yangming wanted to burst out laughing.

At last, the big yellow dog opened its eyes after some time. The moment it did, Ou Yangming could sense its existence in his sea of consciousness.

The connection between them was initially cut off by a certain power but as Big Yellow awoke, its surging energy crushed the hindrance, thus they were no longer affected.

Ou Yangming cheered and opened his arms to embrace the big yellow dog.

Big Yellow struggled a little but realized that Ou Yangming was hugging it tightly and with force. Therefore, it stopped moving around but stuck out its tongue to lick his face all over. “Pfft, pfft, pfft…”

Ou Yangming immediately let go and wiped the saliva off his face. He smiled bitterly and remarked, “That’s so disgusting! Big Yellow, why do you never change!”

Perhaps it would be fun if a small dog licked one’s face, but the feeling would be far from enjoyable if one was licked by a gigantic dog.

The young fellow was shocked when he looked at the big yellow dog again. “Big Yellow, you didn’t grow bigger.”

Big Yellow had been growing bigger as it became stronger, to the extent that Ou Yangming even wondered if it would one day become like Multi-armed King Kong.

It possessed an entirely different aura now. While it still could not contend with Multi-armed King Kong and the goshawk, it had advanced into a different creature.

Despite that, it did not grow bigger at all.

Big Yellow shook its head and suddenly spoke after some thought, “I-I… Don’t know.”

Ou Yangming was stupefied. He stared at the dog and asked, “You can speak now?”

The big yellow dog was struck dumb. It nodded and seemed to be elated.

“A spirit beast is intelligent enough to learn various languages, so this isn’t strange,” the goshawk explained after it landed beside them.

Being able to speak in human language was one of the signs of becoming a spirit beast. Though Ou Yangming and Big Yellow were aware of this, it was still surprising when the yellow dog spoke. “Big Yellow, say a few more words.”

“Say… What?”

“Heaven.”

“Heaven.”

“Earth.”

“Earth.”

“Big Yellow.” “Big, Yellow.”

“Big Yellow’s an idiot!” “Big Yellow’s… You are—an idiot.” “I’ll smack you!”

“Bite, bite you…”

The goshawk had a gentle look in its eyes when it watched Ou Yangming and Big Yellow having fun teasing each other. Its master’s conduct was far from the legendary one, but having a master like him made it feel at ease.

When Ou Yangming and Big Yellow stopped bickering after half an hour, the yellow dog could speak more fluently. It could only speak slowly but at the very least, it did not stammer anymore.

The goshawk looked around and suggested, “Master, nobody knows Big Yellow has become a spirit beast. How about it continues to hide its aura for now?”

Ou Yangming thought it was a great idea too.

Nonetheless, Big Yellow’s aura could not be contained because it had just advanced. Under the circumstances, it would not be easy for it to hide its abilities.

Who knew, the goshawk seemed to be well-prepared. “Master, I learned a secret technique that can be used to hide one’s aura, and I can pass it on to Big Yellow. It’s not complicated at all, so it’ll be able to conceal its aura once it grasps the technique.

Big Yellow barked excitedly and stuck out its chest.

‘I could even withstand the Heavenly Thunderbolts, let alone a small technique…’
