Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 723: Lil’ Red

“Boom…”

When the sky was covered in red, the forceful pressure crushed down and hit everyone in an instant.

In mid-air, the faces of Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque changed. The air flows around them changed drastically, and their initially steady bodies swayed and fell toward the ground like falling stars.

Without any sound nor the ability to resist, the 2 Venerable Ones lost their greatest reliance, where they could not even float in the sky anymore.

Nonetheless, they were real powerhouses, after all. Although there was an unforeseen event, they made the best choice at once.

They tried their best to remain stable in mid-air and flew down like 2 sharp arrows. When they were close to the ground, they spread out their arms and released their spiritual powers continuously to hit the ground. After making a spiritual power passage, they finally landed on the ground.

The trees and ground around them were in a mess, but they managed to land steadily on the ground by relying on their potencies.

Even so, they did not look great, and they were also appalled.

The power was incredibly mighty!

As for the 3 remaining insect Venerable Ones, they maintained their bearings as powerhouses because they did not soar into the sky. Nevertheless, they also sensed the fearsome being and its energy, hence they did not look much better than Yuqi the Venerable One.

At this moment, inside and outside of the Beast King Sect, whether it was the Humans, the Insects, or the Walking Beasts, they looked up at the sky and were in awe of what appeared.

An enormous round red ball had unknowingly emerged in the sky. The round ball slowly unfolded as though it was a blooming flower, causing its charm to be displayed.

It was a gigantic and wonderfully enchanting bird.

Nobody could describe the big bird’s outer appearance, but it simply floated in the air like a deity. Its body did not move an inch, but the airflows around it kept stirring up all sorts of vortexes. Each vortex carried unbelievable energy, and they could be strongly sensed by powerhouses with higher cultivation bases.

In particular, when the formidable Venerable Ones stared at the vortexes, they were clearly fearful.

They even had a feeling that if they dared to get close to the mighty being, they would be mercilessly devoured by the vortexes when they got near to them. The seemingly insignificant vortexes contained energies that could kill Venerable Ones.

Ou Yangming’s eyebrows twitched because he could sense the vortexes’ energies. Furthermore, he could sense their principles.

He had never seen such a frightening trick before, but a memory surfaced in his spiritual world the moment he witnessed it, causing him to have quite a good understanding of it.

This was the Phoenixes’ power, which was a power that would only be born when one’s cultivation base arrived at a notable stage.

Ou Yangming exhaled deeply and developed a strong desire for it.

‘When can I possess a similar ability!’

The giant bird casually scanned everyone with its sharp eyes. As a result, everyone including the Venerable Ones seemed to have been petrified, such that it was wishful thinking for them to even move their thumbs.

As soon as the bird showed up, it naturally had control over everything.

Moreover, its existence was unreasonable and overbearing.

Since the giant bird was there, no living being could fly in the sky in its presence. The sky belonged to it, and it existed because of it.

Without any explanation, this was the feeling that everyone had when they saw it.

Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque smiled bitterly at each other because they finally understood why there was such an unforeseen event earlier. Despite that, they did not want to take revenge at all.

Taking revenge on this being? Even the thought of it seemed to be extremely luxurious for them.

After all, the giant bird was not aiming them on purpose, but was only releasing its aura. In a way, Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque could not be noticed by the being at all; they were merely unlucky to have suffered the marvelous yet unbelievable attack.

If the giant bird targeted them, they could not have landed steadily.

The giant bird looked around but even the powerful Venerable Ones did not attract its attention.

However, it finally stopped when it looked at the poisonous pill’s spirit, which was being constrained by Gold-bodied Venerable One.

Gold-bodied Venerable One could sense the bird looking in its direction. It let go of the poisonous pill’s spirit without any hesitation and swayed away from it.

Earlier during the big war, Gold-bodied Venerable One never let go of the poisonous pill’s spirit even when it was intensely attacked by the Big Formation Light. This time, without needing to be threatened by the giant bird at all, it made the most suitable choice right away.

Faced with the terrifying being, it dared not resist at all.

Once the poisonous pill’s spirit was no longer constrained, it turned into a black light and flew toward Ou Yangming.

When the giant bird appeared, the whole world seemed to be under its control, by which even Venerable Ones could not float in the sky anymore. That said, the poisonous pill formed a world inside it, thus it could fly with its power even when it was restricted by its external environment.

With that, the black light landed in Ou Yangming’s hand like an electric light.

Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and smiled bitterly. ‘You idiot, are you trying to harm me…’

He instantly became the focus as the poisonous pill’s spirit’s move caused a huge chain reaction.

Having said that, when the giant bird followed the poisonous pill’s spirit and finally saw Ou Yangming, it had a gentle look in its eyes.

Yes, Ou Yangming could sense that while its expression remained the same, the kindness in its eyes was so obvious that one could not have been mistaken at all.

Ou Yangming was anxious. The scary bird was the being that he had been waiting for and revered.

Back in the secret realm, when the Wutong Tree suggested he recuperate there, he rejected it because he sensed that the mighty being was approaching.

It was an unexplainable feeling, but it was the reason he took the risk and left the secret realm.

He did not want the top-notch powerhouse to be aware of the secret realm’s existence.

Today, Ou Yangming was also the earliest to realize that the powerhouse had descended to this realm. Nonetheless, he never thought that it would make such a big scene and spotted it in an instant.

When the giant bird opened its wings slowly, a tiny red light flew out.

Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up, and he could not help but shout, “Lil’ Red!”

The red light flew around the mountain at an unbelievable speed, then it zoomed straight toward the young fellow.

Ou Yangming was surprised yet overjoyed when he saw the red light, whereas Yuqi the Venerable One had a weird look on his face.

The little red bird was the one that entered the Spiritual Realm from the lower realm in the past. Back then, it vented its anger on the Humans’ Nine Great Sects when it noticed that Ou Yangming was missing, and it argued with them to make them compensate it.

If an ordinary little fellow made so much noise, the Nine Great Venerable Ones would have suppressed it long ago. However, Yuqi the Venerable One smiled bitterly when he looked at the massive bird floating above the little red bird.

‘It turns out that living beings in the world can really head to Heaven.

‘But where’s my path to Heaven?’

The little red bird landed on Ou Yangming’s shoulder faster than it used to.

“Chirp chirp, chirp chirp…”

A series of sounds hit Ou Yangming’s ear. The little fellow was as fierce as it used to be, where it greeted the young fellow strongly as soon as they met.

Ou Yangming reached out to tap the little red bird’s body.

It was one of the gestures that he previously got used to. The little red bird became slightly unfamiliar with it because it had been such a long time, but it did not dodge him; it only turned its head away as it was slightly displeased.

On the other hand, Yuqi the Venerable One and the others were stupefied. They felt like their hearts were tugged by a certain power.

‘What did I see? I didn’t see anything… Motherf*cker, if I’m killing because I witnessed this, it won’t be worth it at all.’

The being in the sky was exceptionally majestic, and its appearance was so overbearing that it was unimaginable, causing every being to look up at it. As for the little red bird, it was entirely different as it allowed a human to touch it. The difference was too big.

Nevertheless, everyone found it odd because the giant bird in the sky kept a straight face and looked on as if it was interested in what was happening.

Additionally, the unusual look in its eyes was quite spine-chilling.

It was not a sinister look; no matter how the others looked, it looked like a doting bird.

Gold-bodied Venerable One and Black-faced Venerable One felt chills. They turned to glare at Ghost-clawed Venerable One because they finally figured out why the 10,000-legged Venerable One wanted to escape no matter what. Perhaps they would really be killed here this time.

Ou Yangming comforted Lil’ Red, then he bowed at the sky.

He moved his lips but could not say anything because he did not know how he should address the being.

The little red bird exerted force through its feet and jumped up to Ou Yangming’s head. It noted, “This is Feng Xiang, my brother. You can call it Feng Xiang too.”
