Chapter 442 Parasite
The disturbance on the top of the wall finally stopped, but the people from Yongxiang City cast hostile looks at Ou Yangming and the goshawk.
They naturally did not have the guts to blame Her Royal Highness for what happened. If they did, the princess would behead them, and nobody would protest against the injustice for them.
Nonetheless, Ou Yangming was different. He had subdued two humongous creatures but if they went against the Humans, the people could easily blame him for it. “Master Ou, please explain,” Yu Jinshuang uttered coldly.
Everyone stared at Ou Yangming as though they were waiting for his justification.
Nevertheless, the young fellow still had a cold look in his eyes. He had not planned to attack right away because he wanted to work in secret, and he wanted to see if he could find other surprises from Dong Haoxian. Who knew, the situation changed drastically after the goshawk made such a huge scene. Ou Yangming had initially wanted to keep it a secret, but it was longer meaningful. “Governor Yu, how long has this Supreme Great Ancestor come to Yongxiang City?” He asked.
Yu Jinshuang was not suspicious when he saw the pale Dong Haoxian. After all, it would only be unbelievable if anyone could remain calm after being attacked by the goshawk.
“Brother Dong has been a cultivator in Yongxiang City from the start. Besides, the Dong family has only risen because of him, which is why they have a place in this city,” he answered seriously. “Oh, so Brother Dong is a local?” Ou Yangming’s smile was becoming more unfathomable.
Yu Jinshuang became confused when he noticed the meaningful look in the young fellow’s eyes.
The other people looked at Dong Haoxian at the same time, but they saw a pale face.
“Master Ou, even if Brother Dong offended you, we’re currently in the midst of the Humans’ disaster. Shouldn’t you put your grievances aside until the disaster’s over?” Yu Jinshuang frowned.
“Yes. Even if he committed a huge sin, as long as he’s willing to risk his life in the disaster and play his part, he should be able to redeem himself,” Lao Boyi noted in a deep voice.
Ou Yangming chuckled. “Very well—you said it so well. How about you ask what Brother Dong thinks?”
Yu Jinshuang and the others looked at Dong Haoxian but heard him speak in a hoarse voice, “Master Ou, I don’t know I offended you. Why are you doing this to me?”
“Nice one, Dong Haoxian! By now, are you still trying to confuse everyone else?” Ou Yangming sneered
Dong Haoxian responded coldly, “Master Ou, what exactly do you mean? I really don’t understand.”
Ou Yangming said, “If you don’t understand, I’ll let everyone else figure out.”
He slowly lifted his hand and punched the air in front of him.
It was the imperial family’s lost art—the Simulated Spiritual Fist.
Ou Yangming controlled the punch so well that its power only enveloped Dong Haoxian, and it was difficult to guard against.
Dong Haoxian focused before Ou Yangming even punched and was ready to face the surging fist intent at any time. Who knew, the young fellow’s punch was soundless and turned out to be a spiritual fist art.
‘Sh*t!’
This was the first thing that crossed Dong Haoxian’s mind.
Following that, he widened his eyes and entered the illusory environment created by Ou Yangming
Ou Yangming was not at ease at all. Not only did he perform the Spiritual Fist, but he also released intense lights from his arm guards.
Dong Haoxian was far more powerful than he expected, hence he was forced to use his attached powers to pull the elder into the illusory world. Moreover, Ou Yangming was also feeling afraid as though the elder would break free at any time.
The great mental power could not have been cultivated by an ordinary Supreme Great Ancestor.
“Boom…”
In his spiritual world, Ou Yangming suddenly sensed a cold intent.
The power was certainly not released by a human.
Next, a weird creature appeared in Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness. It seemed like a two-legged lizard too, but it was twice as big as the one he saw before. Furthermore, the creature looked so sinister as if it came from hell, and it released a terrifying chill.
‘The Insects-he’s part of the Insects indeed!
‘No wonder I was so disgusted by him, and the goshawk even attacked without my order.’
The exact reason behind everything was the Supreme Great Ancestor had become a part of the Insects.
Although Ou Yangming did not know why the local great ancestor would become like this, he was not going to be merciful. In actuality, ever since the goshawk pleaded its loyalty to him, he was fated to become enemies with the Insects.
“Hiss…”
The two-legged insect stuck out its large tongue and attacked Ou Yangming in the spiritual world. In particular, its eyes seemed to be bewitched and could suck out one’s heart.
Ou Yangming’s mental conception turned ice-cold in an instant, to the extent that even his consciousness was about to freeze. The two-legged lizard’s mental power was unbelievable.
Even so, Ou Yangming was the host of the illusory environment. When the mental power in his sea of consciousness surged, everything went back to normal. His mental power then struck his opponent like a monstrous wave.
ave
The two-legged lizard pushed its way through the stormy waves, and a strong conception echoed in Ou Yangming’s mind.
“Presumptuous human, I’ll spare you if you surrender now!” The voice was beyond odd as Ou Yangming could not identify its gender at all, but it was attractive and could stir up one’s emotions.
Ou Yangming curled his lips. He was sure that it was the consciousness of the descended spirit beast.
If only their mental powers were being compared, the consciousness was indeed superior to his because it had been tempered for a long time.
Mental power over 100 points and one that was below 100 points were entirely different, thus the powers released would be totally dissimilar too.
The two-legged lizard’s mental power was notable, and it had definitely surpassed the 100 mark. Therefore, it still had the upper hand even when Ou Yangming was the host of the fight. Under the spiritual storm’s impact, the young fellow had a horrifying feeling that he might collapse at any time.
This was the mental power displayed by the two-legged lizard through a clone, but it was already incredibly mighty. If the creature was physically present, it would likely be even more unbelievable. Ou Yangming breathed heavily as he sensed every single change in the power. Given that he was battling a mental power powerhouse in the spiritual world, as long as he was still alive, he would benefit greatly from it.
“Woosh, woosh, woosh…”
waves
The young fellow’s sea of consciousness was already filled with horrendous waves as their mental conceptions and powers were having the most intense fight.
This was different from when Ou Yangming and Jiang Jiumei exchanged blows, which was simply child’s play. This time, it was a life-or-death fight.
Everyone else on the wall watched the dazed Ou Yangming and Dong Haoxian in confusion. Even the Supreme Great Ancestors could only sense an incomprehensible power in the air, but they could not understand what it was.
Lao Boyi frowned and waved his hand. “Master Ou must’ve been tired after coming a long way. Please help him go to get some rest.”
Several Supreme Great Ancestors exchanged glances, then they approached Ou Yangming from different directions.
Jiang Jiumei had a solemn expression, but her eyes were calm. After receiving her suit, she became confident about protecting her elder brother.
However, the great ancestors suddenly stopped and looked behind Ou Yangming in fear.
A giant yellow figure had come out. It was the big yellow dog. It released a threatening aura, which was so intense that it suppressed the other people even though it was inferior to Multi-armed King Kong and the goshawk.
“The peak…” Lao Boyi turned pale and mumbled.
‘A half-spirit beast at the peak. If it goes mad…’ The other people shuddered with fear.
At the spur of the moment, Bai Shixue’s dull voice was heard. “General Lao, is Great Ancestor Dong a mental power cultivator?”
Lao Boyi looked coldly at her. “Young Pavilion Master, why are you asking the obvious? How many mental power cultivators are there among the Humans?” “Oh, since he’s not one, why can he go up against Ou Yangming’s mental power?” Bai Shixue’s laughter was moving, but she sounded scary the longer she laughed. “If I may ask, when did Great Ancestor Dong start to cultivate mental power?” General Lao and the others were struck dumb. They turned to look at Dong Haoxian.
They were not mental power cultivators, but they had exceptional will powers since they had become great ancestors. Given their cultivations of willpower had merged with their bodies, they could sense the existence of mental powers.
Hence, they immediately noticed something after Bai Shixue reminded them.
The Supreme Great Ancestors looked at each other in shock.
Before long, the people surrounding Ou Yangming had slowly dispersed, and they quietly shifted toward Dong Haoxian instead.
They thought about a legend, but the thought of it was enough to make them quiver.
After a brief moment, they heard Dong Haoxian let out a weird sound, which was similar to an insect’s cry. He was seen holding his head with both hands, and he looked so hideous that it was a terrifying sight.
Lao Boyi’s face twitched as he uttered, “Parasite!”
