Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 779 – A Fight Between Venerable Ones

Ou Yangming suddenly looked up at the sky from the peak and uttered coldly, “Who's that? Show yourself!” Earlier on, he suddenly had a unique sense in his spiritual world that a figure was hiding in the dark. It was the warning from his Heavenly Phoenix Fire and the queer head.

Yuqi the Venerable One's face immediately darkened. He looked around to inspect their surroundings.

Nonetheless, he had a strange look on his face after some time as he was confused. “Master Ou, did someone really break into the Beast King Sect?”

If the person that shouted was not Ou Yangming, the Venerable One would have slapped that person already instead of asking so politely. It was simply absurd to say that someone could lurk into the Beast King Sect. Besides, he had been checking the surroundings but did not spot any figure at all, hence he could not help but think, 'Was Master Ou mistaken?'

The old macaque and the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One found it weird too.

Given that the 3 of them were present, who would have the audacity to pry in the dark?

Moreover, Ou Yangming was only an Intermediate Spiritualist, so the Venerable One wondered, 'The 3 of us didn't even notice anything, so how could you have spotted anything?'

Ou Yangming nodded hard. “I couldn't have been mistaken!”

The person hiding in the dark was surprised and thought, 'He has knacks up his sleeves indeed, and he's worthy of being the Phoenixes' messenger.' Even so, he still concealed his aura and hide his vital signs completely.

“Are you not going to come out?” Ou Yangming sneered. A l.u.s.ter was seen in his eyes as he raised his right arm and circulated the Qi inside his dantian, causing every cell inside his body to shake. Green veins could also be seen bulging on the young fellow's arm, and they looked like hideous squirming green insects. Next, a forceful Qi momentum burst out from his body as he punched fiercely at the sky.

An arm-sized lack halo zoomed into the sky.

At this moment, the faces of the 3 Venerable Ones finally changed. Since Master Ou attacked, it meant that someone was really lying in ambush around them.

Their faces burned as they looked at Ou Yangming because they did not notice anything at all, but the Intermediate Spiritualist spotted the figure. 'Is his mental power really so powerful? This is simply unimaginable.'

While they were still thinking, a cheerful or angry voice was heard coming from the sky. “He who's famous has a well-deserved reputation—I finally witnessed this. You're unordinary indeed, Master Ou.”

As soon as the voice was heard, a white-robed man appeared in the sky. His body was surrounded by a faint layer of white mist, which seemed to be ever-changing. The mist gave off an illusory and hazy feeling as though one was looking at flowers through the mist or watching the moon in the water. Nevertheless, every word and action from the man corresponded with the natural law, making one feel comfortable. The contradicting yet unitary feeling intertwined, causing the others to feel dizzy.

Upon seeing this, even Yuqi the Venerable One's face changed, and he knew that the man would not be an easy enemy.

Sure enough, someone was hiding under their noses, but they did not realize it at all. Yuqi the Venerable One looked at the old macaque and the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One. He later exerted force through his legs to soar into the sky, forming a stunning arc that stretched across the sky. A deafening sound was heard, and it was filled with great momentum. The wind and clouds in the sky turned around, and the m.u.f.fled sound of thunder echoed in a roughly 16 kilometers range. In particular, countless waves surged on the huge river in the east of the 10,000 Beasts Sect, causing all of the disciples to be shocked.

As Yuqi the Venerable One channeled his dantian's power, his long robe fluttered without the presence of wind. Without any hesitation, he scoffed and flapped his sleeves. Following that, the Venerable One's longsword flickered, forming 3 red flowers in front of him. Hints of blood could be seen on the petals as if the flowers were carefully crafted using blood as ink.

“Sword skill—Red Frost!” Yuqi the Venerable One grunted.

The petals spun, and they instantly blotted out the sky along with the wind. Similar to petals that fell when a strong wind raged in a forest filled with blooming peach trees, the petals distorted the air that was about 3 meters in front of Yuqi the Venerable One. They later spun quickly like wind blades toward the white-robed elder and were aiming his heart, which was evident that the Venerable One was determined to kill him. Subsequently, the Venerable One's sword moved with his body as he followed the petals closely and stabbed with his sword.

“You're the Beast King Sect's Venerable One indeed—this is a great momentum.” The white-robed elder chuckled.

Although the elder made such a remark, he bent his fingers casually and even had time to stroke his beard. At the spur of the moment, a loud sound from a saber was heard coming from his white hand, and a white saber-light appeared as well. At this time, the world in front of Yuqi the Venerable One became black and white—white that represented loneliness, and black that was simply pitch-black. Everything became barren, and the interlaced black and white looked like a monochrome wooden fish. It became the only thing in the world and spun in his head.

Yuqi the Venerable One bit the tip of his tongue and managed to come back to his senses from the weird state. He was appalled, but he did not slow down at all. Electric arcs emerged from the Venerable One's palms while grey lights flickered on his arms. He lifted his hands in front of his chest to defend himself.

Anyone that became a Venerable One was a G.o.d-favored one and a giant among men. One's mental state, execution, and willpower would have been tempered to be the best. Without an enterprising spirit, one could not have before a Spiritualist, let alone a Venerable One.

No matter how formidable the white-robed person was, Yuqi the Venerable One was fearless.

“Boom…” The 2 figures clashed hard, causing their spiritual Qis to burst and spread out like ripples.

Numerous cuts could be seen on Yuqi the Venerable One's arms. He had a grave look on his face, and his arms began to tremble.

Seeing as the situation was off, the old macaque and the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One looked at each other and soared into the sky at the same time.

They were bewildered. When did such a powerhouse appear in the Spiritual Realm? His attacks were unique, and it seemed like he had reached the state where everything was much more than what met the eye.

Ou Yangming stared at the sky and had simplified the fight that was going on up there. Whenever he pondered about every seemingly detailed move, he visualized something different. In particular, when the young fellow made comparisons with his martial arts and verified them one by one, he was delighted.

All of a sudden, he grabbed outward with his right hand, causing a suction force to burst out from his palm. A bamboo stick flew toward him from the side of the road and was clutched by him.

The young fellow used Heaven and Earth as his paper, the bamboo stick as his brush, and the san as his ink.

With that, he drew curves one after another, and they gave off a cold intent.

The old macaque stopped and looked oddly at the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One. “Ah, Master Ou's natural gift and quality…”

On the other hand, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One stood in the air and touched the tip of its nose. It was also helpless, and it sighed. “Apart from being peerless in smithing art, Master Ou's natural gift in martial arts is also unreachable for even G.o.d-favored ones.” It shook its head but could not tell what it was feeling.

The white-robed elder flapped his sleeves in the air. A fleeting light could be seen on his hand as he turned his wrist, and a loud sound was heard without warning.

He blocked Yuqi the Venerable One's elbow attack swiftly and punched at the same time. A visible ripple appeared, and it was accompanied by a booming sound. The white-robed elder countered every move and borrowed the elbow attack and pushed with his hands. He staggered 2 steps back but did not look like he was in a mess. Instead, he looked indescribably graceful.

The white-robed elder stabilized himself and looked down as he curled his lips into a smile. 'Good fella, let's see how much you can learn today. If you're talented enough, I might as well give you good luck as a sign of our fate.' Following that, the elder turned his fingers slightly and retrieved an ancient longsword. It was roughly a meter long and 2.5 meters wide, and it was circulated by a red light that released notable energy.

By bending his back a little, the white-robed elder kept wielding his longsword. His sword techniques were ever-changing; they were sometimes as magnificent as a volcano eruption, as quest and as deep as a cold spring underground, or as icy as 3-kilometers-long ice crowns at the peak of a snowy mountain. Various sword momentums merged and became one.

Throughout the process, the sword-lights flickered and suppressed Yuqi the Venerable One.

The old macaque gasped and roared violently. White light flickered from its interspatial bag as a ma.s.sive war hammer flew out. It was a magic tool of Fine Grade Rank Five.

It was worth noting that the hammer was at least 3 meters long. Unlike ordinary war hammers, its top was not flat but sharp, so it gave an enormous sense of pressure.

The old macaque roared and clutched the hammer's handle with its fingers. A cold light emerged from the hammer's black surface.

When it hit the hammer in the air, it looked like the heavy hammer was crooked and hit a piece of gla.s.s.

The spot in the air where the war hammer hit was struck by a forceful power, thus the air turned into vacuum at once.

With a slightly red face, the white-robed elder wielded his sword again. The sword intent was no longer ferocious but calm, but it made the old macaque's face change. As such, the macaque poured all of its power as a Venerable One into its war hammer without any reservations. A l.u.s.ter filled the mountaintop as its giant hammer flew toward the sword-intent to shatter it.

The old macaque's face had also turned unusually red.

As for the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One, it had somehow gone behind the white-robed elder to attack him using its coercion. Its fur stood on their ends and stirred up a storm, resulting in an imposing momentum that suppressed the elder in front of it. This was the domineering momentum that the Venerable One had cultivated from countless victories by being at the top on the 10,000 Beasts Ridge for a long time. The mountainous momentum seemed like it was going to stir up a storm to shake the white-robed elder's heart.

Despite that, the white-robed elder was not affected at all. Instead, it leaped diagonally outside and slashed with his longsword.

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One's face darkened upon seeing this. It scoffed and yelled, “You're courting death—kill!” Before its voice went away, its muscles expanded as though they were pumped with blood. They formed numerous frightening curves, so much so that the air around it began to shake.

A black rune that seemed like it was going to shatter could be seen on the Venerable One's arm. As it punched unreasonably, its Qi and force fused. Wherever its fist force pa.s.sed, the air split instantly, leaving an ear-splitting sound of m.u.f.fled thunder.
