Chapter 824: Multi-armed Overcomes The Disaster

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The mountains in the Beast King Sect undulated.
It was a severe winter, hence cold winds were whistling. Snow was falling without a gap at all, and the plants on the mountains had dried up and were covered by snow, causing the mountains to look like they had grown fatter. When the wind blew, the dried plants swayed while the heavy snow covered the pine trees on the precipices.
As the wind blew and snow fell, the ground looked sparkling and was clothed in white. All of the dust in the universe was buried by the snow.
The sky looked fragmented as it was covered with scattered snowflakes. Nonetheless, it was dusky and boundless.
Deep inside the mountains, Ou Yangming got rid of the accumulated snow on his hair and breathed out cold air.
The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One stopped and scanned their surroundings before it stated with a muffled voice, “Let’s go with this. This is off the beaten track, and we’re surrounded by mountains and water. The water’s facing the Qian position while the mountain’s facing the Kun position, so it’ll be possible to unblock one’s killing intent.”
Ou Yangming jumped down from Multi-armed King Kong’s shoulder and said softly, “10,000 Beasts Venerable One, I didn’t that that you believe in Fengshui and divination.”
The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One’s face darkened after it heard that. It responded after some time, “The stronger I become, the more I feel more oppressed. This sky has been above our heads for far too long. Besides, it’s King Kong’s bid day today, so there’s no harm believing in a bit of this and that.” Following that, it jumped and stood in the air next to Multi-armed King Kong, where it gently tapped its son’s shoulder with a gentle look in its eyes. Even if the Venerable Ones was the greatest powerhouse on the 10,000 Beasts Ridge, at the end of the day, it was a father. As long as one was a father, one would bear a responsibility that was as heavy as a mountain.
“Are you confident?” The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One asked with a smile.
King Kong smiled and answered softly, “With the Earthly Formation Boards and the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit refined by Master, it won’t be difficult to get through the Heavenly DIsaster.”
Its spiritual power was already extremely solid, and its body was overbearing. Assisted by the Earthly Formation Boards and the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, unless it encountered above 5 Heavenly Thunderbolts, it could easily overcome the disaster.
Since ancient times, the number of Heavenly Thunderbolts had always varied.
Most of the time, there would be no more than 5 of them. In fact, the fifth thunderbolt was incredibly rare, whereas more than 5 of them would be a one in a million, where one would have a 70% chance of being killed.
The more thunderbolts that one got over, the more powerful one’s potential. Rumors had it that phoenixes and dragons had to prevail over 9 Heavenly Thunderbolts.
Big Yellow was envious when he stood in the snowfield and looked at the mountainous King Kong. It shook its head and thought, ‘Multi-armed King Kong hasn’t entered the Spiritual Realm for a long time, and yet it’s taking that step already. As for me, I’m still far away.
‘This is the Heavenly Disaster for one to advance into a Venerable One!’
It stole a glance at Ou Yangming and decided to cultivate seriously so that it could take this step as soon as possible.
Wu Hanning, Bai Shixue, and Ni Yinghong stood side by side in the snowfield like 3 gorgeous flowers.
Ever since Bai Shixue entered the Spiritual Realm, she made use of everything she learned and earned a lot for her dowry.
This time, if it was not because Multi-armed King Kong was going to conquer the disaster, Bai Shixue would probably be immersed in “business”. She was dressed in red and had a delicate face. When she pushed her long hair back, her graceful collarbones that looked like art were revealed. Even so, instead of looking weak, she displayed a heroic spirit.
As for Wu Hanning, she wore a white outfit, and a proud look could be seen on her fair face.
On the other hand, Ni Yinghong wore a fitting long light skirt. Her long hair looked like a waterfall, and she had a tall and thin figure. Nevertheless, instead of the ethereal feeling that Wu Hanning and Bai Shixue gave off, her figure looked more real.
The 3 ladies turned to look at Ou Yangming with looks as gentle as the warmest sun in summer.
“Woosh, woosh, woosh!”
The northern winds cried in the air. As Ou Yangming exhaled the cold air in his chest, his eyes looked brighter than before.
He turned to say to the 3 ladies, “Get back a little—I’m going to set up the formation boards!”
The 3 ladies backed away elegantly while conversing with each other happily.
Seeing as the distance was enough, a soft sound was heard coming from Ou Yangming’s interspatial bag. With a flash of thought, the 1,080 newly refined Earthly Formation Boards flew out at the same time. They looked like a long silver dragon as they were connected from end to end, resulting in a smooth and natural feeling to fill the air.
Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up. He then lifted his right hand and pressed it at the void before he pushed outward.
The formation boards immediately covered a 1 to 1.3 kilometers range around him. The veined patterns on the formation board shone, and they released an aura that was as enormous and as solid as a mountain.
“Let’s begin!” Ou Yangming looked at Multi-armed King Kong and nodded, then he exited the range of the Heavenly Disaster.
Once Multi-armed King Kong put on its Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, it grunted. Consequently, its forceful momentum burst out, and its Qi momentum was majestic and endless.
Due to its momentum, the accumulated snow within about 333 meters from it had numerous stunning arcs drawn above them as they soared into the sky like 9 dragons sucking water from the ground.
“Fight!” Multi-armed King Kong roared. A red light flickered in its eyes.
With that, wind and thunder surged, the mountains shook, and stones flew into the sky. On the precipice at the top of the mountains, countless tiny holes appeared as gravel flew everywhere.
Right after the strong momentum was released, clouds rose and fell in the sky. It took only a split second for the entire sky to turn dark.
It was worth noting that the black clouds were even blacker than ink. Layer after layer, they pushed down and became denser, such that fearsome coercion penetrated the sky to the ground with tremendous momentum. As innumerable thunderbolts rumbled amidst the thunder clouds, the world fell dead silent. Demonic beasts within a tens-of-kilometers radius lay prone on the ground and buried their heads into the snow as they dared not move recklessly. They cried softly as if they saw the most frightening thing in the world.
Ou Yangming could also sense massive pressure on his shoulders, to the extent that it was going to bend his spine and make his shoulders collapse.
The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One’s face changed. It frowned and remarked, “Given that the thunderbolts have such a momentum before they even strike, it looked like this Heavenly Disaster won’t be an easy one.”
Ou Yangming’s shoes sank into the snow, thus squeaks were heard when he walked. He looked worried as he asked in a deep voice, “10,000 Beasts Venerable One, how many Heavenly Thunderbolts did you overcome when you became a Venerable One?”
The Venerable One looked at the sky with a face as dark as still water. It answered with a hoarse voice, “4, but they weren’t as terrifying.”
After it replied to the young fellow, the old macaque also took a deep breath and sighed. “I also went through 4 Heavenly Thunderbolts when I became a Venerable One, but they were far less mighty than the ones this time. Based on my experience, there’ll be at least 5 Heavenly Thunderbolts.”
The faces of the 3 ladies changed when they heard what the macaque said. Ni Yinghong was clever, so she quickly comforted everyone when she noticed the grave looks on their faces, “Multi-armed King Kong’s wearing a Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, and the Earthly Formation Boards have also been set up. Even if it encounters 5 Heavenly Thunderbolts, it’ll be fine.”
As her voice traveled with the wind, the others felt slightly relieved.
The black clouds continued to push down. As a result, the light in the sky seemed to have been sucked by them, causing the sky to turn pitch black.
Without warning, an electric light flashed and ripped the sky like a bird being startled. A thunderbolt as wide as a person’s wrist descended exceptionally fast. The Heavenly Disaster’s power was unavoidable.
Multi-armed King Kong breathed out and grunted internally, ‘Activate!’
Subsequently, the 1,080 Earthly Formation Boards emitted light as though they had come to life.
They released a yellow halo, where yellow light was dim, but it was constantly changing. It grew with the wind and spread in all directions, then the light streams interlaced into a net and turned into a yellow light curtain above the king kong’s head.
When the Heavenly Thunderbolt and the yellow light curtain came into contact with each other, an alarming sound echoed in the air.
The sound was truly shocking. While it stirred up violent winds that swept in all directions, an airwave reverberated. The air seemed to have turned into a lake with ripples, where the ripples spread outward and destroyed every plant, rock, and spirit beast in their way.
As for the light curtain, it kept shrinking and became more solid until it became a very compressed semicircle.
Silence—dead silence!
The flying snow, the crying northern winds, and the startled gravel.
They somehow stopped in the sky against common sense.
The thunderbolt was still in a deadlock situation with the light curtain, and it seemed like they were evenly matched. The red light in Multi-armed King Kong’s eyes surged as it channeled its spiritual Qi into the formation boards. At once, the yellow light curtain’s momentum increased significantly, and it remained in a stand-off against the first thunderbolt for a while more before the thunderbolt vanished.
Upon seeing this, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One was elated. It commented softly, “Master Ou, the Earthly Formation Boards that you refined are unordinary indeed.”
The old macaque also clapped its hands and praised, “Yes, with these formation boards and Thunderbolt-resistant Suits, if other disciples from the 10,000 Beasts Sect can take this step in the future, their success rates will be much higher.”
“Elder Macaque, you’re overpraising me.” Ou Yangming shook his head and chuckled. After recuperating for some time, the old macaque’s injuries were no longer serious. Its body became abundant in Qi and blood after it consumed the Eternal Pill, so it was able to recover quickly due to its new lease of life.
The northern winds were scattered, and their cries caused one to shiver and have goosebumps.
Everyone else eventually found it hard to breathe as the pressure from the thunder clouds grew stronger.
The thunder clouds surged and pushed lower while white electric arts flickered from time to time.
“They look like falling rain…” The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One’s eyes flashed when it looked grimly at the sky.
Right after it spoke, a muffled sound was heard coming from the sky.
Following electric arcs that flickered among the thunder clouds, thunderbolts struck like fast and hurried rain.
Indeed, the thunderbolts were similar to falling rain!
The hundreds and thousands of thunderbolts hit the light curtain like raindrops, causing the solid light curtain to be bumpy and rippling. Despite that, its aura was more solid as the 1,080 formation boards merged completely and became one.
At this moment, the old macaque shook off the accumulated snot on its shoulders and laughed. “The second thunderbolt’s over!”
Before its voice even died away, an unforeseen change occurred. The hundreds of thunderbolts that were as wide as one’s fingers gathered all of a sudden and turned into a light ball of roughly 3 meters. It flickered and lit up half of the sky like a bright sun. This unforeseen change exceeded everyone’s imagination.
When the light ball pushed downward, plenty of electric lights were released.
“Crack, crack!”
When the flickering light ball and the light curtain collided, a subtle crack appeared and spread in all directions.
Multi-armed King Kong’s face changed. It roared, “Shatter!”
Concurrently, it channeled its magnanimous spiritual power into the formation boards, by which its pure spiritual power surged.
The light ball and the light curtain that was formed by the Earthy Formation Board exploded at the same time. Accordingly, a ripple undulated outward with Multi-armed King Kong as the center. Numerous electric arcs could be seen on the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, but they did not cause any harm at all.
When the ripple stirred up the snow on the ground, the trees could only hold on for a breath before they were completely turned into powder.
The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One and the old macaque were surprised. They rolled up their sleeves backward and went more than 300 meters backward with Ou Yangming and the 3 ladies.
Afterward, they looked at each other in disbelief.
