Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 471

“Formation,” Ou Yangming uttered.

“Heh, you have a good eye.” Long Dexing began to sound quite fierce as he said, “I'll show you the real wonders of the Inescapable Trap.”

In a flash, the Inescapable Trap's fragments, which seemed to be spinning slowly, turned at an unimaginable speed. Once they started going round, they became so fast that they instantly became one. Even when Ou Yangming looked, he could only see an oceanic, endless thin film.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming stood still with his saber and watched coldly.

Since he grasped the Flame Saber and the Devouring power, he was confident about forcing his way out regardless of how the Inescapable Trap changed.

Especially when his opponent was the Sky-devouring Devil G.o.d's follower, he had quite a notable advantage.

Nevertheless, he noticed that something was off after some time.

The fragments slowly calmed down after they spun at a rapid speed, but the change after that was drastic.

It turned out that the Inescapable Trap's broken pieces were not circling to set an earth-shattering formation; the so-called formation was merely a name and a disguise. The real objective of the process was to merge all of the pieces into one so that they could become a creature with a human form.

Apart from the fragments at the periphery to isolate the aura inside, the remaining parts agglomerated into a human-shaped creature, which looked similar to Long Dexing but was pale.

It was evident that the creature disguised its essence and blood through a method, hence Ou Yangming could not spot them.

Ou Yangming stared coldly at the human-shaped creature and uttered scornfully, “Trying to act all mystifying.”

He darted forward and wielded his military saber, which he slashed on his opponent.

No matter how the Inescapable Trap's pieces changed, Ou Yangming only had one way to go against it; he could only break it with force. As long as he possessed the Devouring power and the Military Fire, he could naturally restrain his opponent.

Despite that, Ou Yangming sensed that something was wrong when he hit the creature with his saber.

The creature's body was formed by countless fragments, thus it was easily gashed by the saber. Who knew, the cut seemed to be free of force as the military saber was not obstructed at all when it slashed through. It felt soft and was effortless as though Ou Yangming was slicing the air.

After the military saber cut through the creature's body, the gap immediately closed, allowing the creature to recover its original form.

Ou Yangming was appalled because he had never heard of this trick.

Since his attack failed, the Devouring attribute on his saber was not effective at all.

His face changed a little before he launched another attack and made tens of slashes in the blink of an eye. None of the attacks made were in the same direction as he targeted every corner of the fragment creature.

Having said that, no matter how bright his saber-light was, how fast he was, and how mighty he was, his opponent only had one counterattack. The saber-lights were not hindered whenever they slit its body, but the cuts closed once the saber left its body.

Ou Yangming smiled bitterly because it was his first time encountering such a problematic creature.

Even so, he was not going to give up yet. When his saber's saber-light flashed again, a scorching flame could be seen.

It was the Flame Saber, which carried the Military Fire's power. Anything would be burned by the fire as it was more superior to the Devouring attribute.

“Woosh…”

The blazing flames burned as Ou Yangming slashed again.

He was soon in disbelief because his attack failed again.

The Inescapable Trap's fragments seemed to have turned into candles that did not give off smoke at all. They melted quickly when the Military Fire burned, but their powers were not absorbed by the fire nor the Devouring attribute. Instead, they s.h.i.+fted backward and reformed a new body behind.

In other words, Ou Yangming could not absorb even a bit of power from his opponent anymore.

This was when he finally sensed a penetrating chill.

“Heh, since I've come to escort you, of course, I was well-prepared. You should turn yourself in now, lest suffering more pain.” Long Dexing's alluring voice was heard again, and it went straight into Ou Yangming's sea of consciousness.

For some reason, Ou Yangming had a strong sense of agreement.

'Yes, since my ultimate trump cards can't even be used against him, why don't I just leave with him? It'll be unfavorable if I get injured because of this.'

Just as he wanted to drop his weapon to admit defeat, a strange yet familiar voice rose from the bottom of his heart.

He was slightly stunned and was drenched in sweat when he turned to look.

Elder Universe.

At this moment, Ou Yangming saw the elder that perished together with a spirit insect for him.

Ou Yangming took a deep breath and awoke. He instantly realized that his opponent had used the Soundwave Magic Art against him, causing him to almost lose his fighting will and confidence.

Fortunately, he was fully immersed in a sorrowful state when he previously held a memorial service for Elder Universe, thus the elder's silhouette was deeply rooted in his heart.

It was a feeling of guilt and grat.i.tude, and it came from the deepest part of his heart.

He suddenly encountered a formidable enemy when his emotions were at the strongest stage, so he was forced to withdraw himself to face the battle.

This was why he happened to enter the mournful state again when his consciousness was being deceived. As such, he saw Elder Universe's illusory image.

Ou Yangming finally awakened when the two intense emotions resisted each other.

His body was already drenched in a cold sweat. If Long Dexing did not intend to capture him alive but wanted to take his life, the man would have succeeded when he was distracted.

“Hey, you could actually break free?” Long Dexing was shocked. “Not bad, your self-control is remarkable. I'm beginning to admire you more, and I hope you won't disappoint us after you meet sir's conception.”

Ou Yangming looked deeply at the fragment creature in front of him. He suddenly sneered and exerted force through the tip of his toes to jump in the opposite direction of the creature.

A saber-light flashed as he moved. He figured that since he could not harm the creature at all, he would break the power that covered Heaven and Earth.

Perhaps he could only seek help from the Heavenly Thunderbolts to go against the creature.

However, the fragment creature beat him to it and blocked him before he arrived at the edge. It was so fast that it always overtook him even when he gave his all.

Ou Yangming was taken aback. He s.h.i.+fted his feet to glide in another direction, but he soon noticed that he would always be blocked by the creature no matter where he went.

It was worth noting that the creature was not controlled by an ordinary person, but a human powerhouse that surpa.s.sed Extreme Grade.

Long Dexing dared not go head-to-head against Ou Yangming because he feared the Military Fire and the Devouring attribute. That said, the latter was far from the former in terms of combat experience.

Although Ou Yangming had entered the states of the integration of Heaven and man, as well as the thoroughly meticulous, the supreme powerhouse from the upper realm seemed to be superior to him in this aspect. As a result, the young fellow could not hide his change of direction from the man at all.

In actual fact, Ou Yangming might not necessarily be victorious even if the two of them fought in close quarters. As long as Long Dexing could evade the young fellow, he might be able to capture him alive or kill him too.

Nonetheless, the cautious Long Dexing rather went behind the scene by hiding inside a fragment creature to fight Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming eventually slowed down after half an hour, and he began to pant heavily.

It was not easy to fight the creature. If Ou Yangming relaxed or made a careless mistake, it would extend its whip-like arm to tie him up.

The young fellow knew he would reach a dead-end if he was restrained due to his carelessness.

Judging from the creature's power, he was not confident about breaking free at all. Luckily, he could always cut the creature with his military saber. In spite of that, the saber's coverage was limited, hence it could not completely destroy the creature's enormous body.

At last, Ou Yangming gritted his teeth and somersaulted in mid-air. He tried his best to temporarily escape from the creature.

Following that, he removed his helmet and armor, then he retrieved another set of equipment from his interspatial bag in a split second and put them on.

Ou Yangming did everything during the fight. Long Dexing saw him clearly, but he did not treat it as important nor did he intentionally stop the young fellow. This was because he felt that no matter what the young fellow did or what type of equipment he wore, he could not hurt him or absorb his powers. At the end of the day, Ou Yangming would be defeated.

This was a gap between absolute strengths, and Ou Yangming could not compensate for his shortcoming regardless of what he did.

Sure enough, Ou Yangming seemed to be exhausted after some time.

The fragment creature extended his arm to grab Ou Yangming's ankle.

Ou Yangming turned his wrist as if he wanted to slash with his saber, but he became much slower, which allowed the creature to seize his other wrist. Subsequently, the fragment creature uses more arms to wrap around the young fellow's body.

Even though Long Dexing knew this was going to be the ending, he was surprised that he managed to capture Ou Yangming so quickly.

Nevertheless, he sighed a breath of relief after he made sure that Ou Yangming could not get away.

“Human, stop struggling. Take a nap and come with me!”

A lazy voice was sent to Ou Yangming's mind as though it wanted to make him pa.s.s out.

That being said, Ou Yangming looked up without warning and smiled strangely.

“You, go to h.e.l.l!”
