Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 648

Ou Yangming closed his eyes and asked lazily. “Lu Zhenxie, what are you doing here instead of hunting? Heh, are you confident about winning the bet already?”

“Yes, you're very smart indeed, Your Excellency.” Lu Zhenxie showed up in front with his hands behind his back. He looked mockingly at Ou Yangming and Big Yellow as though he was playing cat and mouse with his enemies.

Nonetheless, Lu Zhenxie was surprised because he did not sense any fear from them.

The human and the dog gave him an extremely bad feeling as if he was not the hunter that set a trap, but prey that fell into the trap.

Lu Zhenxie furrowed his eyebrows. He forced himself to get rid of his uneasiness and threatened the young fellow and the big yellow dog, “If you allow yourselves to be seized without resisting, I'll plead mercy for you.”

“Hmph, you old pile of garbage, who are you trying to deceive?” Big Yellow was disdainful. “Do you even have credibility?”

“Okay, I'll let you die graveless deaths then!” Lu Zhenxie's face changed as he shouted. He later reached out his hand and pointed at Ou Yangming. “Sirs, this young fella was the one that killed your companion. I've lured them here, so you can take your revenge now.”

As soon as his voice died away, m.u.f.fled squeaks were heard around them.

Big Yellow twitched its nose and had a grave look on its face.

4—there were 4 powerful spirit beasts here.

Unbeknownst to Ou Yangming and Big Yellow, the spirit beasts concealed themselves such that they could not be noticed at all. When they finally revealed their auras, they successfully encircled the young fellow and the big yellow dog.

Spirit Grade powerhouses and spirit beasts were incredibly formidable figures. It would be difficult to defeat them, let alone killing them.

Even so, the lizard insects seemed to be well-prepared. As they split up and surrounded Ou Yangming and Big Yellow, they might really be able to trap them here.

Ou Yangming's eyes flickered. He laughed and questioned, “Aren't you making a big fuss over a minor issue by getting 5 Spirit Grade powerhouses to go against the 2 of us?”

Lu Zhenxie had a hideous look on his face. “So what if more effort is used to make you stay here forever!”

“Woosh…”

Just as Lu Zhenxie spoke, the lizards around inched closer toward Ou Yangming and Big Yellow without a sound and attacked.

Nevertheless, the moment they pounced on their enemies, Ou Yangming spread his fingers and moved them, causing a cold light to be vaguely seen.

“Explode…”

As he grunted, several explosions were heard around them. Following that, the environment seemed to have undergone an exceptionally mysterious change.

The 4 lizards, which went all-out as they wanted to rip Ou Yangming and Big Yellow into pieces, suddenly realized that they had lost their targets. The despicable human and the giant dog had somehow vanished, and the lizards could not locate them no matter where they looked.

While the 4 lizards looked at each other and were fl.u.s.tered, one of them shrieked out of the blue.

Its body seemed to have been torn into 2 by something and burst. Consequently, endless blood splattered all over, and its organs fell out as well.

The 3 other lizards were appalled, but they could not spot their enemies even when they widened their eyes and fully released their mental conceptions. It was as though the other lizard had really been killed by an invisible power.

Lu Zhenxie did not have it any better. He saw a flash of light around him, then he seemed to have entered an empty world.

Over here, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow were not present, nor were the lizard insects; it seemed like he was the only being in the world. The abrupt change shocked Lu Zhenxie, and he knew things were bad. It was then when he realized that the young fellow was not being presumptuous, but had actually set up a trap for him.

Even after looking around, Lu Zhenxie could not find a way to escape. Countless thoughts crossed his mind, and he finally mumbled, “The Illusion Zone, the Illusion Zone, this is impossible…”

The Illusion Zone was an unusually mighty trick. As soon as one was trapped inside, unless one had overpowering powers, one would not be able to get out at all.

Despite the Illusion Zone being so mighty, very few people grasped it.

Lu Zhenxie's hands were immediately covered in cold sweats. His lips trembled as he was in deep regret.

'That young fella must be a disciple from one of the Humans' influential sects, which is why he has a spirit beast as a companion and mastered the Illusion Zone. Someone like him must be precious in his sect. If he and his spirit beast go missing during an adventure, the people from his sect will surely carry out extensive searches for them.'

Lu Zhenxie could still have a spot as a Spiritualist in border areas for the Humans, but he was far from the top-notch sects.

Therefore, he regretted his actions very much, but he could not die for nothing, hence he flashed and attempted to break free.

Having said that, he realized after a brief moment that the result was the same no matter which direction he escaped in; he would always return to his starting point. For a moment, the man was so stupefied that his body seemed to have been submerged in ice-cold seawater and no longer had any warmth left.

With Ou Yangming as the center, the handmade round boards nearby exploded.

The energies contained in the boards were also released at once, forming an enormous zonal formation map.

This was an Illusion Formation Map. In terms of its mightiness, it could trap cultivators in Ou Yangming's rank.

It was worth noting that Ou Yangming could only replenish with his Skill Runes because he did not understand formation maps well enough. If a real formation master did the same thing, one could easily defeat the strong with the weak.

Subsequently, Ou Yangming grunted and released his mental power. He connected the runes that he set up in different spots and constructed a ma.s.sive Spiritual Illusion Formation.

Needless to say, without a formation board's support, the Illusion Formation could only exist for a shorter time. Once the energies around dispersed, the formation would automatically disappear. However, the little time was sufficient for Ou Yangming to achieve his target.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow later flashed to the back of another lizard. The former turned his wrist to retrieve a saber, which released a queer light. It was not poison, but because the blade was too sharp.

“Boom…”

As the young fellow slashed, the saber easily cut the lizard's body.

The lizard was in an illusion, but its body's instincts remained. When it sensed immense pain from its body, it let out a shrill shriek, and it twitched its body as if it was going to jump. That said, before the lizard could make further moves, Big Yellow had jumped on it and expanded to 3 times its original size, where it suppressed the insect like a mountain.

Although the lizard did its best to struggle, it could not compete with Big Yellow's power.

At this moment, Big Yellow had not only enlarged, but it also activated its White-Silver-level power, which the lizard would not be able to break free from.

The lizard stopped making any sound as it was slashed into 2 by the saber.

After settling 2 spirit beasts with ease, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow walked toward the third lizard with smiles.

Even though there were 4 potent lizard insects here, they were lambs to be slaughtered inside the illusion.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow walked slower. It seemed like they became more relaxed after successfully killing 2 of the lizards.

Nonetheless, just as they joined hands and killed the third lizard, a peculiar energy fluctuation appeared in the void. Next, a humongous lizard heart appeared in front of them. The lizard made threatening gestures, and it released a fearsome aura that flooded them.

A middle-rank spirit beast—it was a middle-rank spirit beast.

The powerful middle-rank spirit lizard had been hiding on the side, where it did not move even when its other partners were killed in the illusion. It was at this moment it confirmed that the young human and his spirit beast had become dizzy with success and were no longer on guard. Thus, the lizard made a prompt decision to attack right away as it wanted to kill them both in an instance.

The deaths of its 3 partners were definitely unexpected, so it must kill Ou Yangming and Big Yellow here.

With that, the lizard extended its sharp claws. It was going to scratch Ou Yangming's neck when the young fellow's body began to spin like a spinning top, by which he managed to go around its claws.

Almost at the same time, Big Yellow lifted its claws. With help from its forceful equipment, it collided hard with the middle-rank lizard.

The middle-rank lizard was dumbfounded. It roared furiously because it initially thought that its sneak attack would be a success, but it finally knew that everything was within its opponents' expectations and control.

Its aura eventually grew more intense but just as it wanted to perform its body technique to pursue the young fellow and the big yellow dog, every spot on its body hurt and turned numb.

The middle-rank lizard was frightened. When it turned to look, a black centipede had unknowingly appeared on its back and was pouring endless poison into its body.

It was true that lizards were also a part of the Insects and possessed notable poisons.

In spite of that, theirs were insignificant as compared to that of the centipede on the lizard's back.

The lizard turned to bite the centipede ruthlessly by widening its mouth to reveal its jagged, sharp teeth.

Who knew, the centipede simply let itself be bitten without dodging at all.

While the middle-rank lizard was confused, it would not waste this perfect opportunity. However, when it bit the centipede ruthlessly, it was surprised to find that it did not feel anything else apart from the chilly pain that came from its teeth knocking into each other.

It missed.

The middle-rank lizard was infuriated. It straightened its body and roared but when it glanced again, the centipede was still stuck on its body.

Enraged, it dared not stay here anymore, hence it leaped up and ran into the distance.

Nevertheless, it collapsed to the ground after some time. It looked resentful and was not resigned to the outcome.

'Why am I still here after running for such a long time? When did I fall into this illusion trap?

'I'm a middle-rank spirit beast…'
