Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 654 - Surround And Kill One By One

Chapter 654: Surround And Kill One By One

“Hiss, hiss, hiss…”
Accompanied by strange and frightening shrieks, the 2 powerful high-rank lizards stopped instantly. They had extremely dangerous looks in their eyes, and they immediately locked on the source of the weird power fluctuation.
Even at this time, they did not notice the big lazy turtle.
They consciously thought that the lazy turtle was only an odd giant rock, where the person that sent the dangerous signal was hidden on it.
The 2 high-rank spirit beasts grinned hideously and cruelly, then they flashed to zoom up to the giant rock.
Who knew, forceful energies suddenly burst out from the 4 hidden formation boards around them. The energies merged right away and formed a large Illusion Formation like never before.
A few days ago, Ou Yangming would not have been able to release such a strong illusion effect.
Even if he gathered his origin spiritual world, he would not be able to achieve such a mighty effect if he released it.
Moreover, the mere act of opening his origin spiritual world would greatly consume his mental power. On the other hand, he did not seem to have consumed much mental power after he released the formation boards.
As a result, the visions of the lizard Spiritualists went blurry. They were surprised because their surroundings seemed to have undergone an incredibly subtle change.
It was a change that could not be easily put into words. It did not look like there was a difference but in reality, it gave them a strange feeling.
“An Illusion Formation…” One of the lizards uttered softly while its eyes flickered.
Being part of the Twelve Walkers, they were naturally not nobodies, and they were knowledgeable. Therefore, they noticed that something was off as soon as they entered the illusion.
Although they knew it was an Illusion Formation, it would not be easy for them to break free.
Ou Yangming and Big Yellow looked at each other. The Illusion Formation could affect the lizards, but it could not affect them due to their Concentric Knots’ unique abilities. With that, they flashed and pounced on the last lizard.
The lizard was alone, but it was the one that held the line for the other lizards. Unquestionably, it was the most formidable powerhouse among them.
Even though it entered an illusion, it did not panic at all. Instead, it extended its neck and scanned its surroundings with its cold and ruthless eyes. Furthermore, it swung its tail slightly and stirred up a queer energy fluctuation.
The second Ou Yangming and Big Yellow lunged at the lizard, it straightened its long tail abruptly and aimed it in their direction.
It could actually identify directions after entering the illusion.
“Pow…”
The lizard suddenly whipped its tail and caused an intense shock as it swept across the air. The shock’s power soared along with the air as though it was going to slash the lizard’s enemy into 2 at the waist.
Ou Yangming took a deep breath and channeled his spiritual power to forcibly halt in mid-air.
Big Yellow roared at the same time and accelerated to overtake Ou Yangming. Its enormous body charged at the lizard at lightning speed.
“Boom…”
Next, Big Yellow collided hard with the lizard, causing a deafening boom to be heard.
Big Yellow’s power was far greater than that of ordinary equal-ranked beasts. While the lizard was a high-rank spirit beast, the big yellow dog had a mightier piece of White Silver Equipment. It incited the equipment’s power when it charged at its opponent, and the power that burst out was forceful beyond the limit of ordinary spirit beasts.
As for Ou Yangming, instead of falling at once, he floated in mid-air as if something was supporting his body.
He waved his hands at the same time and drew mysterious symbols one after another. The symbols drifted in the void and released mysterious energy, which renovated with the formation boards’ powers from afar, causing the influence of the abnormality nearby to be more significant.
Big Yellow let out a weird bark. The power of the lizard’s tail turned out to be greater than it expected. Consequently, it bounced up high after their collision and was going to crash into the tough mountain rock behind it. Nonetheless, it was then when the rock, which looked like it had existed since the dawn of time, caved in all of a sudden. A gigantic leg extended out to support the big yellow dog and steadily unloaded the enormous power on it.
In comparison, the lizard was not so lucky. It fell hard to the ground, and its straight tail waved as it could not point out where Ou Yangming and Big Yellow were.
Its collision with Big Yellow and the reinforcement of the formation boards’ mightiness by Ou Yangming caused it to lose control of its targeted enemies.
Every secret technique had a limit. As the young fellow and the big yellow dog joined hands, they happened to exceed the lizard’s withstandable limit, hence it could not sense them anymore.
Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up. White releasing his mental power, he shook his hand and retrieved a spear.
It was a magic tool at the peak of Good Grade, and it was attached with a White-Silver-level Power attribute, as well as the simplest yet the most useful skill.
Sharpness.
If the skill was released, the magic tool’s attacking power could be increased by 50% from its basis. It might be a Good Grade magic tool but along with the power increment too, it would not be inferior to most High Grade magic tools.
The lizard sensed that something was off as soon as Ou Yangming stabbed with the spear. It kept flashing as swaying as though it was drunk, but its nimbleness helped it to dodge the spear.
Nevertheless, Big Yellow pounced on it again at the next moment.
Without showing a weak impression at all, it struck the lizard with its massive body. By relying on its tremendously tough pieces of equipment, it turned out to be powerful enough to suppress its opponent.
The lizard lost its balance right after they collided.
Ou Yangming watched coldly on the side and attacked with his spear again without any hesitation. It was not an ingenious strike, but it was exceptionally fast, such that the lizard could not evade it despite its power and speed as a high-rank spirit beast.
“Pfft…”
The spear penetrated the lizard’s body at lightning speed and pinned it to the ground.
It was such a mighty attack that the tenacious lizard could not resist it at all.
The best weapon and the Sharpness skill created the nearly miraculous effect.
At the spur of the moment, the lizard shrieked and arched its body, then it bounced up as if spring was mounted on its body. The power of its jump was incomparable as it somehow managed to get out from the end of the spear.
Ou Yangming’s face changed. Sure enough, an insect’s way of fighting was out of his expectations. If a human or a walking beast was stabbed by the spear through the chest or abdomen, even if they would not die on the spot, they would not be much better.
However, an insect’s life force was absurd. After the lizard’s chest and abdomen were pierced, it forcibly pulled its body out from the spear and still jumped around without showing any signs of imminent death.
Such a life force could only be described as absurd.
The lizard was severely injured after it was hurt by the spear, but it managed to locate the host of the formation once again.
It widened its large mouth, causing its stinking breath to fill the space around it. Following that, it attempted to bite Ou Yangming with its bloody teeth.
Ou Yangming was in admiration, but he still sneered disdainfully. He flew backward at the same time and crashed into the mountain rock behind him.
The lizard finally managed to lock on Ou Yangming, thus it was not going to let him go so easily. Its huge mouth was similar to a bottomless hole, and its eyes looked so fierce that anyone that wanted to intervene would want to think thrice.
Concurrently, the lizard’s legs and tail vibrated in a particularly subtle amplitude. It had confirmed the direction where Ou Yangming had escaped.
There was a hole in its body, but it never gave up as it wanted to tip its enemy into pieces.
Having said that, it widened its eyes at the next instance.
This was because it saw the mountain rock behind the human cave in and sucked him in just like that.
‘Mountain rock… Sucked in?’
The lizard’s eyes lit up. It bared its teeth and whipped its tail hard at the rock.
A thunderous sound was heard, and the lizard rolled and fell on the ground. It finally confirmed that the mountain rock was the toughest rock in the world because the backlash made it dizzy, and its tail even went numb.
‘But how could such a tough mountain rock suck in that detestable human?
‘Is this Illusion Formation so profound that I’m starting to hallucinate?’
While the lizard was dazed, its body hurt without warning as an intense feeling, which made it feel like it was skinned or its blood was sucked, spread from a certain point to its whole body.
Big Yellow had reached out its claws to pierced them deep into the lizard’s body. Unlike normal times, a peculiar luster could be seen at the tips of its claws. The light was so brilliantly red that it appeared to be redder than blood.
The lizard twisted its body furiously but soon realized that its power was flowing away quickly.
It was appalled, and it immediately knew something was up with the damn dog’s claws.
The lizard suddenly exerted force through its limbs to rise into the air, then it somersaulted in mid-air and zoomed toward the notably tough mountain rock. It wanted to utilize the rock’s toughness to crush the despicable dog into meat paste.
Who knew, the mountain rock moved out of the blue just as its body was halfway in the air.
The lizard looked in disbelief. It was frustrated and regretful.
It turned out that the mountain rock was a monster that was even more fearsome than it was.
“Pow…”
The big lazy turtle extended its giant head and bit the lizard’s body.
Almost at the same time, Ou Yangming showed up from beside the turtle’s head and jabbed his spear into the lizard’s chest and abdomen.
The immense pain stimulated the lizard, and it wanted to fight in desperation. That said, its body was being restrained by an enormous power, and it was losing energy from its flesh and blood faster than before.
It took only a brief moment before the body of the potent high-rank spirit lizard shriveled at a visible speed. After whining as if it was crying for help, its limbs twitched for a while, and it died as ghastly death.
