Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 720

The 10,000-legged Venerable One's sudden appearance was out of everyone's expectation, but it did not get the result that it wanted.

Although it made a perfect sneak attack after being in position for some time, it was forced to stop the second it made its final strike. This was because it suddenly realized that it lost its target.

No, it was actually because there were somehow thousands and ten thousands of the poisonous pill's auras. Despite having hundreds and thousands of legs, the Venerable One could not capture all of the pills.

“10,000-legged…” Gold-bodied shouted all of a sudden, “This spirit's your doing indeed!”

The 10,000-legged Venerable One shook its enormous body and asked, “Pfft, do you think I'm capable enough to bring up a spirit?”

Gold-bodied Venerable One was stunned. They were insect Venerable Ones, hence they knew each other's capabilities very well. The 10,000-legged Venerable One was one of the few powerhouses among the Insects, but to say that it could bring up a spirit… n.o.body would believe it.

“Hmph, no matter what, this spirit has your aura!” Gold-bodied Venerable One paused for a while before it continued, “I've strangled it, so quickly find the spiritual body's origin, or none of us will end well.”

The 10,000-legged Venerable One was furious. “I don't believe that you can't sense how scattered its auras are.”

If the 10,000-legged Venerable One could find the spiritual body's origin, it would have controlled it long ago instead of speaking nonsense with Gold-bodied Venerable One.

At the spur of the moment, cheers were heard inside the big formation. Ou Yangming opened his eyes slightly and realized that his back was already drenched in a cold sweat.

The abrupt change earlier shocked Ou Yangming so much that he broke out in a cold sweat. If he had not been quick-witted enough to make a prompt decision, the poisonous pill would have already been captured by the centipede, which had schemed this for a long time.

Since the centipede did not succeed, it would have no business here anymore.

A l.u.s.ter appeared on the Big Mountain-guarding Formation without warning, causing fearsome lights to burst one.

The Humans could not help but cheer upon seeing this because it meant that the big formation had changed from a mere defensive sphere into an offensive formation map.

Yuqi the Venerable One, who was evading Black-faced Venerable One's spider web, halted in mid-air. He stopped and had an arrogant look on his face.

At last, the time had come.

Black-faced Venerable One stopped as well. It looked at Yuqi the Venerable One with a complicated look on his face and sighed. '10,000-legged Venerable One made a surprise appearance, but our efforts are still in vain.'

As Yuqi the Venerable One reached out his hand, his fingertip seemed to have multiplied into thousands. He pointed at Black-faced Venerable One.

Following the movement from his fingertip, the Big Mountain-guarding Formation shot out l.u.s.ters that shrouded the insect Venerable One and encircled it.

Black-faced Venerable One had wanted to surround Yuqi the Venerable One with its multicolored spider web just now, but the situation had overturned. Numerous electric lights struck around the insect Venerable One. There was initially a compact spider web around it, which was so sticky and poisonous that anyone would be deeply troubled. However, due to the big formation's lights, the silks seemed to have been burnt as they vanished into thin air.

The power gathered by the Big Mountain-guarding Formation was much more powerful than the spider web. As it was being controlled by an equal-ranked powerhouse, Black-faced Venerable One ended up in a difficult situation.

It took only a brief moment for the spider web, which was set up by Black-faced Venerable One through hard work, to disappear. Consequently, the Big Formation Light managed to hit it without being obstructed at all.

Black-faced Venerable One shrunk its body and transformed into a stream of light to dodge.

After commanding the Big Mountain-guarding Formation to strike Black-faced Venerable One several times, Yuqi the Venerable One turned around, and the light headed toward Gold-bodied Venerable One and the 10,000-legged Venerable One according to his will.

“Pow, pow, pow…”

With that, giant lights. .h.i.t the 3 Venerable Ones ruthlessly. Moreover, even though the lights were endlessly forceful, Yuqi the Venerable One controlled them so well that none of them hit the poisonous pill's spirit.

Ou Yangming's eyelids flickered. He was in admiration of Yuqi the Venerable One's controlling ability.

If he was in the Venerable One's shoes, he would not have been able to control such a mighty power.

A moment later, 2 figures flew over from a higher spot in the sky; they were the old macaque and Ghost-clawed Venerable One. Nonetheless, the old macaque had returned to its normal size. When it flew past Yuqi the Venerable One, he panted and said, “I've done everything I could, so the rest is up to you.”

Before its voice died away, it dodged the Big Formation Light and dashed toward the formation.

The mighty formation did not obstruct it, thus it entered the mountain range smoothly.

Yuqi the Venerable One uttered proudly, “Don't worry, leave this to me.”

He floated in the sky and waved his hands to set the world to rights. Every time he made a move, the Big Mountain-guarding Formation would release a l.u.s.ter to attack one of the insect Venerable Ones.

The Insects had 4 formidable Venerable Ones at this moment, but the big formation could attack them freely because the poisonous gases were gone. With Yuqi the Venerable One's controlling ability and the formation's foundation, he did not show a weak impression against the 4 equal-ranked powerhouses.

“Pow!”

Black-faced Venerable One blocked a l.u.s.ter and sighed. “We've failed, so let's retreat.”

While resisting the Big Formation Light, Gold-bodied Venerable One kept restraining the poisonous pill's spirit. It was not resigned to the outcome, and it still had a covetous look in its eyes because the spiritual body was right in front of it, but they could not take it away.

If they missed this chance, it would almost be impossible for them to obtain a spirit anymore.

Ghost-clawed Venerable One was conflicted. Its rationality was telling it that they would not gain anything else even if they chose to stay. They were greater in number, but how could they compare with the Big Mountain-guarding Formation's foundation, which had been acc.u.mulated for thousands of years?

Nevertheless, it also felt like they should not give up.

“Hmph, continue to hold on!” The 10,000-legged Venerable One sneered. “The Big Mountain-guarding Formation will be gone soon.”

“What?”

The other Venerable Ones were dumbfounded and confused. The 10,000-legged Venerable One was potent, but it was inferior to them, so it seemed impossible for it to break through the Humans' Big Mountain-guarding Formation.

Having said that, the other Venerable Ones remained calm. Ghost-clawed Venerable One, Black-faced Venerable One, and the 10,000-legged Venerable One even formed a triangle to help fend off attacks for Gold-bodied Venerable One as much as they could.

Yuqi the Venerable One scoffed. “I guess you won't give up until you face a grim reality. I'll make you stay here today!”

Subsequently, he moved his hands faster than before by making profound and complicated gestures. As his movements changed, the Big Mountain-guarding Formation underwent a peculiar change as well. The Big Formation Light emitted lights in all directions, and the formation let down its defense to activate an attacking mode.

The Big Mountain-guarding Formation had countless changes, each one had its pros and cons.

It was true that the siege method was quite extreme as it was equivalent to giving up most of the formation's defense but if it was a success, the 4 insect Venerable Ones would be trapped inside the big formation. Even if they managed to break free in the end, they would definitely be skinned.

Yuqi the Venerable One decided to change the formation map because he saw how they were unwilling to leave the poisonous pill's spirit.

If not, he would not have thought that the siege formation could be completed before the insect Venerable Ones escaped.

That said, n.o.body noticed a flash of red light on the ground when the formation map changed. The light was red, but it was insignificant as it was masked by the sunlight and the Big Formation Light.

Just as the big formation was at the most crucial point of its change, the red light moved and went inside through a gap.

It seemed to understand the formation very well, such that it happened to sneak in the second the formation map changed, thus even Yuqi the Venerable One did not notice it.

Next, the red light landed on a certain spot on the mountain range and began to destroy without a sound.

In the mid-air, Yuqi the Venerable One whispered. He was imposing and dignified.

After today, the fact that the Beast King Sect defeated the 4 insect Venerable Ones and injured them severely would make the sect famous.

“Ghost-clawed, Black-faced, Gold-bodied, 10,000-legged, since you're courting your deaths, I'll fulfill your wishes!” Yuqi the Venerable One yelled and raised his hands, causing the Big Mountain-guarding Formation to release so much light that the entire sky seemed to be covered.

Numerous beings roared loudly to vent their emotions when they witnessed the earth-shattering scene.

They were proud of how magnificent the Beast King Sect's Big Mountain-guarding Formation was.

Nonetheless, just when everyone thought that Yuqi the Venerable One was going to release the formation map's power to launch a fatal blow, the big formation's lights dispersed.

It took only a split second for the unstoppable storm to scatter and disappear.

Yuqi the Venerable One was dazed. He looked down and uttered, “Formation map…”

On the other hand, the 10,000-legged Venerable One was relieved. It laughed out loud and said, “Yuqi, without your Big Mountain-guarding Formation, I'd like to see if the 4 of us together can eliminate your sect!”

Yuqi the Venerable One's face took on a ghastly expression. Not only him, but everyone from the Beast King Sect was also fearful.

They were on the cusp of victory, but the table was somehow turned, and they were going to be defeated instead, so they could not accept it.

The old macaque panted heavily and stared at the sky. It smiled bitterly and asked, “Why did the formation map change? Does Heaven want us to be killed?”

“Yuqi the Venerable One, we don't want to be so ruthless. As long as you hand over the spirit and the young fella from the lower realm, we'll turn around and leave!”

At the top of the mountain, Immortal Fox, Mao Jianbi, and the others looked at Ou Yangming in shock.

'Does this fella have a special origin? Why are the powerful insect Venerable Ones talking about him on equal terms with the spirit?'

However, Ou Yangming did not look as frightened as they expected him to be.

The young fellow slowly looked up into the distance as though he was staring at an empty spot.

His body s.h.i.+vered, but it was certainly not due to fear. With an indescribable glow on his face, he mumbled softly, “Here—it's… Here!”
