Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 715

The intense poisonous fog kept surging as more poisonous gases gathered to make the fog more intense and sticky.

As expected, the involvement of the 3 Venerable Ones caused the poisonous gases to change drastically, to the extent that it could erode the Big Mountain-guarding Formation within a short period.

Nonetheless, the centipede, which had shrunken so much that it was unnoticeable, was still shaking its body and lived freely in the area where one could easily die. If it still maintained its enormous body, when the poisonous fog became this intense, it would also have the risk of bursting due to the gases.

When its body shrunk, causing its surface area in contact with the poisonous gases to reduce, it instantly neglected the harsh environment around it. Moreover, it was even more unbelievable that the poisonous pill's spirit suddenly realized that when it slowly absorbed the poisonous gases of such intensities, the pill's internal change process sped up several times and showed a trend of becoming faster.

Ou Yangming clearly sensed it, and he also had a strong hunch.

Perhaps this was the opportunity for the poisonous pill to get a new lease of life.

The centipede had become extremely small, and it no longer moved. Even so, a tiny vortex of poisonous gas was naturally formed above it. The vortex kept spinning to draw essences from the poisonous gases around it, which were channeled into the poisonous pill through the centipede's body. As for the inside of the poisonous pill, the nebulas became clearer as though they were tangible.

It was a world—an unformed world that was evolved from toxic energies.

Ou Yangming's eyes lit up. He never read about anything similar in ancient books, but he vaguely had this feeling deep inside his spiritual world as if he was already familiar with it.

It was one of the Phoenixes' inherited memories. He somehow got in touch with it through this method and comprehended it.

Apart from an endless void, a world could also be formed in this way.

A world in a leaf—the poisonous pill could also become a world.

All of a sudden, Ou Yangming heard a long sigh. He was slightly surprised, hence he immediately looked up and happened to see Yuqi the Venerable One lifting his hand slowly to point at the Big Mountain-guarding Formation with a grave look on his face.

Ou Yangming's heart thudded hard. He questioned almost without any hesitation, “Senior, what are you trying to do?”

Yuqi the Venerable One was stunned. He looked at the young fellow in shock.

Immortal Fox and the others looked strangely at Ou Yangming as well because they did not understand what exactly he was up to.

Although Ou Yangming was the only blacksmith that could refine flying carpets, he was being overconfident by shouting and wanting to command Yuqi the Venerable One during the Insects' invasion.

Yuqi the Venerable One pondered for a brief moment before he answered, “The Big Mountain-guarding Formation's being disrupted by intense poisons and is a little damaged, so I'm planning to use a special trick to deal with the poisonous gases.”

Ou Yangming asked sternly, “Senior, may I ask what you're planning to do?”

The Venerable One furrowed his eyebrows, but he still responded patiently, “I'll stir up strong winds to blow the poisonous gases away.”

That would be the rightest and the most effortless method. It would cause a huge area of the environment to be polluted, but everything could be overcome as long as the beings inside the big formation could survive.

Who knew, Ou Yangming shook his head and expressed, “Senior, I have a favor to ask.”

“What?” Yuqi the Venerable One uttered.

Ou Yangming replied to him seriously, “I'd like you to put off blowing away the poisonous fog here first.”

Yuqi the Venerable One's eyes turned sharp as he asked coldly, “Why?”

“Because…” Ou Yangming gritted his teeth. He knew the Venerable One would not agree to it if he did not tell the truth. “Senior, I have a treasure, which has been released to the poisonous fog. The treasure's slowly evolving using the fog's power, so its evolution will be unfinished if the fog's gone.”

“What? Using the poisonous fog's power to evolve…” Yuqi the Venerable One was startled for some time. He cast a weird look at Ou Yangming.

“Haha, Master Ou, who are you kidding?” Bear Li laughed out loud. “As far as I know, no living being can survive in the poisonous fog, let alone evolving in it. Hehe, if I enter the poisonous dog, I'm afraid that I'll turn into pus in a split second.” It was a formidable top-grade spirit beast, but it dared not boast about being able to survive in a poisonous fog of such a scale.

Immortal Fox looked coldly at it and remarked, “Dumb bear, Master Ou was talking about a treasure.”

Bear Li was dumbfounded for a while. It was not daring enough to contradict Immortal Fox, thus it bared its teeth and quibbled, “Even if it's a treasure, it won't be able to survive. Could that treasure be tougher than me?”

The Walking Beasts took pride in their bodies, which were cultivated to be so great that they would not be inferior to any piece of equipment.

Bear Li was one of the well-known bodybuilders, so it did not believe that the so-called treasure could withstand the toxicity. After all, the poisonous fog comprised harsh poisonous gases that could slowly weaken even the Beast King Sect's Big Mountain-guarding Formation.

Nevertheless, a l.u.s.ter was suddenly seen in Yuqi the Venerable One's eyes as he asked, “That… Poisonous pill?”

“Yes.” Ou Yangming nodded.

Yuqi the Venerable One took a deep breath and raised another question, “Is it a… Spirit?”

Ou Yangming was hesitant. He did not want other people to find out about it, but he could not hide it anymore since the Venerable One guessed it. “That's right.”

“A spirit—it really is… A spirit!” Yuqi the Venerable One looked deeply at Ou Yangming. As calm as he was, he was incredibly envious at this moment. In fact, he even had the thought of wanting to get his hands on the “spirit” regardless of the costs.

The look in his eyes was unpredictable, but n.o.body noticed it other than Ou Yangming, who was right in front of him.

Ou Yangming had gooseb.u.mps at once. His heart shook as though the amicable powerhouse in front of him had suddenly turned into a fearsome monster that lost its senses. What frightened him more was he was the monster's target.

Countless thoughts crossed Ou Yangming's mind at this instant. He s.h.i.+fted his legs slightly and got into an unusual stance so that he could react to anything that was about to happen.

Despite that, the queer look in Yuqi the Venerable One's eyes slowly faded away because he recalled the real reason he found Ou Yangming. The red figure that appeared in the Teleportation Formation from the lower realm was similar to a sharp sword hanging on the top of the Venerable One's head. It gave off a penetrating chill, causing his fervent heart to slowly turn cold.

Yuqi the Venerable One sighed and curbed his thought. “Okay, what do you want me to do?”

Ou Yangming forced a smile through the corners of his mouth. He was quite terrified by the change in the Venerable One's eyes earlier. Even though it looked like the Venerable One had come back to his senses, he dared not be careless anymore.

“The intensity of the poisonous gases outside should be maintained,” Ou Yangming answered honestly after some thought.

Everyone else cursed internally after they heard him. No matter the reason, they thought that he was going overboard. If the poisonous gases were not blown away, the Big Mountain-guarding Formation would be seriously affected and harmed. Perhaps the delay would even cause them to lose everything.

As such, they thought that Yuqi the Venerable One would reject Ou Yangming's suggestion without any hesitation.

To their surprise, the Venerable One was only undecided for a second before he asked, “How long do you need?”

Mao Jianbi and the others were struck dumb, and they could not believe what they heard.

'Ou Yangming might've gone crazy, but did Yuqi the Venerable One get carried away and want to play this game of sacrifice too? But the Beast King Sect's countless disciples, as well as its foundation that has been inherited for hundreds and thousands of years, are inside the Big Mountain-guarding Formation.'

“An… No, half an hour should be enough,” Ou Yangming answered after some thought.

His connection with the poisonous pill's spirit had not been broken off, so he could still sense every change that the pill was undergoing.

Therefore, he could feel that the poisonous pill's inner world seemed to be showing a trend of taking form due to the poisonous fog's growing intensity. Needless to say, the world could not be successfully completed in the blink of an eye.

Based on the speed at the moment, at least an hour would be needed. Having said that, as plenty of poisonous gases gushed into the poisonous pill, the process was speeding up. Since that was the case, half an hour should be enough.

Yuqi the Venerable One pursed his lips and noted, “Okay, I'll agree with that, but you'll have to promise me something.”

Ou Yangming quickly replied to him, “Senior, please go ahead.”

“The Beast King Sect's helping you this time regardless of the costs, so please help us next time should we be in trouble.”

Immortal Fox and the others looked up because they were shocked by what the Venerable One said.

Ou Yangming was only a little Intermediate Spiritualist. Regardless of how startling his potential was, could he become a Venerable One in the future.

At this time, Yuqi the Venerable One was actually willing to risk the Beast King Sect's existence to help Ou Yangming fulfill the wish of an unknown treasure.

Could a Venerable One really take such a huge gamble?

Ou Yangming's eyelids flickered. He straightened his body and responded seriously like never before, “I promise you.”

The young fellow seemed to have become bigger and taller at this moment. His cultivation base was lower than that of Immortal Fox and the rest but from their perspectives, he had somehow become someone on par with the Venerable One.

Yuqi the Venerable One laughed out loud. He still pointed his finger at the Big Mountain-guarding Formation.

Following that, an even more intense light shone on the big formation to force the poisonous fog to retreat.

He still utilized one of the formation's special tricks, but it was a trick to strengthen the formation's protective s.h.i.+eld. As compared to stirring up strong winds to blow the poisonous fog away, it required a higher consumption of origin power.

That said, Yuqi the Venerable One seemed to be unrestrained, and he was neither cautious nor regretful.
