Chapter 472 - Draw Thunderbolts (1/2)

‘Go to h.e.l.l…”

Long Dexing was stunned when he heard the words.

Ou Yangming was already unable to help himself, but he still spoke conceited nonsense. Had he become ridiculously presumptuous?

Nonetheless, Long Dexing noticed that something was off because a fearsome energy fluctuation was released in all directions from Ou Yangming.

“This is… Stop! Stop right now! Are you courting death?” Long Dexing’s frightened voice echoed in the area. Even a fool could tell he was terrified.

Even so, Ou Yangming smiled mockingly.

“Woosh—” A blazing fire emerged from his body. It was the Heavenly Phoenix’s power, which was utilized to its maximum at the moment.

When the flames burned, the fragments that restrained Ou Yangming instantly turned into a wax solvent and went away. At this point, he could not absorb the energy he needed from them, but the wax solvent could not hurt him anymore.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming’s mighty aura did not weaken at all. In fact, he was slowly becoming more vigorous.

A clear crystal ball could be found in the center of his sea of consciousness.

The crystal ball was the spiritual crystal Ou Yangming absorbed when he previously killed the Sky-devouring Devil G.o.d’s follower in Changlong County. Before this, he did not have the guts to use the crystal ball because he had the hunch that he would surpa.s.s the world’s limit if he absorbed the power inside. As such, he would be struck by the Heavenly Thunderbolts.

He initially planned to absorb the crystal ball’s power after he advanced to the upper realm so that he could go beyond Extreme Grade.

However, he was forced by Long Dexing to make this choice at the moment.

The Military Fire burst abruptly in his sea of consciousness to envelop the crystal ball, causing its touch sh.e.l.l to soften. Following that, the Devouring attribute that he intentionally left behind attached to the crystal ball discreetly.

It was strange because while the Military Fire still burned when the Devouring attribute appeared, the two of them did not conflict with each other at all. Instead, they merged and became one.

Ou Yangming was amazed. Although Long Dexing was still a huge threat in the outside world, he could not help but feel puzzled. The Military Fire belonged to the Heavenly Phoenix while the Devouring attribute belonged to the Sky-devouring Devil G.o.d, and the two were supreme beings in the upper realm but were sworn enemies. How could the dissimilar energies coexist in his body?

He did not know that he was not the only one that found it strange because even the informed Almighty Beings from the upper realm were bewildered too.

If that was not the case, the Insects’ Venerable One would not have taken the trouble to capture him regardless of the costs.

Even though the crystal ball began to soften as it could not resist the Military Fire, it would not be absorbed by the fire. It was as though the crystal ball naturally possessed a resisting ability and would self-destruct if it would be defeated.

Despite that, the crystal ball reacted differently when the Devouring attribute appeared; it naturally channeled out its essence.

Ou Yangming even sensed the crystal ball’s willingness during the process.

He was dumbfounded, and he lamented. Regardless of what the Sky-devouring Devil G.o.d was, its control over its servants and followers was enviable.

“No—”

A horrific shout was heard. Ou Yangming released a hint of his mental conception from his sea of consciousness.

The burning Military Fire had already surrounded him by then, thus the fragment creature could not restrain it even if it wanted to.

Needless to say, it was relatively tricky for Ou Yangming to leave with the Military Fire because the creature could disform itself and could form a mountainous wax wall.

Having said that, the situation changed drastically.

Long Dexing yelled, “Human, you’re courting your death if you do this. Didn’t you see how the foolish human end just now?”

Ou Yangming’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately thought about Elder Universe and felt aggrieved. If the elder had not tried to save him, he would not have made the choice he did.

Though Elder Universe perished together with a spirit insect and it seemed unrelated to Long Dexing, the fact that the man controlled the Inescapable Trap more skillfully than the spirit insects proved that something was fishy.

Perhaps Long Dexing was the real culprit.

Long Dexing could not help but smile bitterly when he noticed the resentful look in Ou Yangming’s eyes. No matter how he tried to explain, the young fellow would not waver at all.

He sensed that the surging aura around him became more powerful, and that the remains of the Inescapable Trap in the periphery were slowly unable to cover the zone they were in.

“Human, we can discuss this. I won’t escort you to the upper realm, and we can make up!” Long Dexing shouted.

He sounded helpless but also extremely sincere.

Ou Yangming calmed down his aura. He asked strangely when he looked at the fragment creature in front of him, “Really?”

“Of course, I can guarantee you!” Long Dexing answered sternly.

That said, he was already cursing Ou Yangming internally and decided that he would make the young fellow pa.s.s out once he survived the disaster.
