The Devilish Immortal

Chapter 148 White and Ape

Chapter 148 White and Ape

Several hours later, Black came back and messaged that he had managed to inform the enforcements outside when Lyu Liang began sneaking into the three Formation Keys.

His first target was certainly the defenseless one. Arriving there, he laid a Xuanyuan Sword Formation with the Void Crystal directly and then headed to the second Formation Key.

There, when the black-robed person at the Late-stage Xuan Immortal was in cultivation with his eyes closed, Lyu Liang destroyed his Divine Soul quietly and without being noticed, rendering him an idiot. Lyu Liang had his concern about killing the enemy—if these guards of the Formation Keys were holding life cards, he would only cause undesired agitation.

The same strategy was applied to the third Formation Key. After that, Lyu Liang slid into the surrounding area of that tower. He was estimating the time—half an hour later, they would annihilate the Wangui Sect with forces from inside and out.

..............................

Inside the tower of the Wangui Sect, 14 Peak of Almighty Immortal seniors were sitting around discussing something.

“It was reported today that Lyu Liang has come to Sishui Country and held a somewhat ancestral admitting ceremony in a high-profile way.”

“Yes. I also heard about it. That Lyu family? Interesting! What tricks they are playing!”

“We have learned about Lyu Liang’s strength. Although we were not in that battle, he alone destroyed a troop of 500 people so seriously. We have to watch out for him!”

“So what?! We are under the protection of an ancient formation. So what if he breaks in?! I think, while he’s still in Sishui Country, we might as well unite with the other two sects to defeat him with an onslaught! If we can kill him on the battlefield of the Wufang Territory, we will fear none of the hostile forces, except for that puppet troop!”

“Kill him? Do you think those powerful figures are unaware of his value? Before the Ghostly Fire Palace and the Sun-Moon Palace could arrive, the opponent’s troops would already be there waiting for us!”

“Guixie’s words make sense. I agree that we should stick to the original intention we had of coming here! We are coming here to keep other forces in check and find that treasure! Why are we instead thinking of swallowing the Wufang Territory? If not for this, we wouldn’t have suffered such heavy casualties!”

Just as these black-robed old guys kept arguing, three shattering booms came from outside, following which, an earth-shaking roar burst out.

“Oh no! Formation Keys... Oh!” Before the people inside took a tumble, the destructive oppression had enveloped the entire tower, and in an instant, several huge beams smashed it into pieces.

At the moment, the position of the Wangui Sect had been thrown into confusion. As the Formation Keys were destroyed, the Great Defense Formation also vanished. At the same time, a large number of puppets and high-ranking cultivators of the Human Clan flocked from outside the formation directly to a humble dome to the south of the position.

A giant two-headed tiger, about 100 meters tall, was standing proudly to the east of the position, bombarding wildly in all directions. Beside him was a huge bear over 16 meters tall, who also joined in the killing of the fleeing black-robed people.

In the dark night sky, aside from the giant tiger and the huge bear, a young man in silver Spirit Armor holding a sword was the most conspicuous. His indistinct figure showed up each time to deal with a black-robed man at the Peak of Almighty Immortal.

The black-robed enemies against him had used all their magic treasures, Field Domains, and even the Power of Law, but they were usually flustered or injured all over their bodies somehow by the sudden flash of powerful Sword Qi, which combined with Lyu Liang’s attack, was doomed to sentence them to death.

Other black-robed people at the Peak of Almighty Immortal also wanted to help through the union, but the Giant Tiger—exceptionally nimble despite its large size—seemed to know what they planned to do, and squirted several beams of destructive oppression to separate them abruptly every time they almost gathered together.

Lyu Liang usually appeared timely beside the black-robed people who had been knocked into the air. If he was lucky enough, he would kill them directly. If not, he would lay several Xuanyuan Sword Formations around them when fighting them, just as he had done before. As long as one of the formations was triggered, the others would function in a chain reaction. Even if they could survive the formation, they would be killed by Lyu Liang’s crushing blows.

Since he could utilize the functions of the complete-state Ghost Devil Head freely, he was able to boost his fighting capacity temporarily, which also threw the enemy into confusion.

For example, Lyu Liang was at first at the Peak of Late-stage Xuan Immortal, but just as the fight began, his aura would shoot up directly to the Peak of Almighty Immortal! Those hapless enemies basically died on the spot due to such an unexpected transformation.

Only after a moment, all of the black-robed people took Lyu Liang as someone whose cultivation was at the Peak of Almighty Immortal.

After an hour of battle, the Giant Tiger’s body dissipated, but there were only two black-robed enemies at the Peak of Almighty Immortal left, who had no fighting intent at all and desperately began trying to escape.

Lyu Liang caught up to them without any hesitation. After all, those Peak Almighty Immortals were the main forces of the enemy, and defeating one of them was equal to killing 10 or even a hundred Late-stage Almighty Immortals!

Lyu Liang made a determined effort this time. He applied the Kun Peng Skill and complete-state Devil Thunder Wing to the utmost, as well as complete-state Ghost Devil Head, which brought him closer and closer to the two escapers.

“Guixie! He’s alone. There’s no one else here, and the Giant Tiger has gone. Why don’t we—” an old bald man with red whiskers said in haste.

“That’s impossible! We’d better escape separately. That guy moves faster than us! You said that the Giant Tiger is gone, but how do you know whether or not it has been called back to his side?! If he releases the tiger when we fight him, we are not even enough to be its snack!” A green-robed old man roared his opposition, stopping such a delusion from his peer.

Lyu Liang was also anxious chasing after them. He had tried all means of acceleration but still couldn’t overtake them. As he got closer the boundary of Sishui Country, he worried that, if he met their reinforcements there, he would only put himself in peril!

Just when Lyu Liang was hesitating with this dilemma, a drawling voice came into his Divine Soul, saying, “Boy, do you need my help? It seems you are in trouble. Are you interested in establishing a life-bonded covenant with us?”

When Lyu Liang was stunned and rendered speechless, Black and Golden voiced out at the same time surprisedly and excitedly, “Liang (idiot), perform the method when you established a life-bonded covenant with us, immediately!”

Deep inside, Lyu Liang trusted Black and Golden unconditionally. Although not knowing what would happen, he bit his finger and began preparing for the covenant.

Two little figures emerged in front of him silently. Just as he bit his finger, two lights shot from above their heads directly into his finger.

At the moment, Lyu Liang felt a shiver in his Divine Soul. An unprecedented feeling of clarity and brightness ran through him, and the tremendous restless power threatened to burst out from inside his body!

In front of him, as the two black-robed men were trying to escape separately, they were dazzled suddenly, and before they could see clearly, a bronze sword with destructive aura and two flashes of purple-golden lightning popped up together!

“He should have been so far behind me...” The old bald man died without knowing how Lyu Liang, who had been far away, emerged in front of him in an instant!

On the other side, the green-robed old man gritted his teeth and had a golden Talisman appear in his hand. He crushed it, following which, his confused and furious voice burst out. “My Divine Invisibility Talisman has lost its efficacy?! How could that be!”

No opportunity, however, was left for him to figure out what had happened. Suddenly, Lyu Liang took a swing with a royal-purple glow and the natural revelation of horrific oppression caused his Divine Soul to tremble!

The green-robed old man, struck by a succession of oddities, was too late to make any defense. With the touch of that fist, everything turned to ashes...

Seeing the two powerful figures, who had been over 300 meters away from him, lose their lives and cultivation in a second, Lyu Liang was also rendered speechless in astonishment for a while.

Back then, just as he finished the establishment of the life-bonded covenant, he could feel two new forces in his Divine Soul, and an ethereal voice sounded. “Focus your Divine Soul power. Kill one of them with a sword! And then punch the other!”

Lyu Liang followed the instructions at once, during which, he felt a shiver in his Divine Soul first, and then with a swing of his body, he had shown up in front of the old bald man! The point was that he felt the enemy’s moves and reactions a bit slower than they should have been. Lyu Liang didn’t catch on to how it happened, but he would not let go of such a good chance and he killed the old man immediately.

And then he threw a punch at the green-robed old man, who was frozen in the air, when he felt a mighty force burst forth from his fist, following which he saw his opponent disappear into ashes.

While he was wild with joy, he was shocked to find that his Devil Immortal Qi had reduced by a fifth at that moment!

“Boy, remove the Human-Beast Union with the Shadow Domain Beast and the Wind-thunder Beast! There is no Bounded Domain here, and the power of thunder and lightning is not needed. Do you think your Spiritual Qi is too much for you?” The ethereal voice scolded him.

Feeling amazed inside, Lyu Liang seemed to understand why so much of his Devil Immortal Qi disappeared and removed the union with Black and Golden hurriedly. Only then did he find the two new beasts in his Divine Soul. One was a little white fox, and the other was a little ape with an honest smile.

While Lyu Liang was usually dull in some aspects, he was good at inferring other things from one fact to some degree. For example, now he understood what had happened instantly, and said respectfully while clasping his hands, “Many thanks to divine beast seniors’ mercy and grace!”

“Eldest brother! Tenth brother!” Black and Golden were so excited that they cheered loudly and heartily.

At the same time, the little fox and the little ape came out of his body. The fox yawned, looked Lyu Liang up and down, and said with a chuckle, “You are indeed a good talent. That old guy is shrewd enough! Boy, both of us are Divine Beasts of Chaos. I’m the eldest, please call me White. He’s the youngest, and you can call him Ape. Now can you guess what our talents are?”

Thinking for a little while, Lyu Liang replied lightly, “Senior Ape’s talent seems to be related to strength. You were able to punch that powerful figure at the Peak of Almighty Immortal into ashes, and that strength was so extraordinary! As for Senior White’s talent, please allow me to hazard a guess. Is it the power of spatial transference?”

White said with a slight smile, “Let’s go. We can talk on the way back.” Then, except for Black, the other three divine beasts blended themselves with Lyu Liang’s Divine Soul, and Lyu Liang also began heading back the way he came.

“You’re only more than half right. You’re right about Ape. His talent is the Ancient Divine Power. Let alone an Almighty Immortal, even if it were a Tao Master, a solid punch from Ape would cause him to share the same fate. As for me, did you see that guy who took out the Teleportation Tailsman? That was the result of restricting through my Space-Time Power. So my talent is the Space-Time Power,” White said slowly with a drawl, but Lyu Liang listened to him in surprise and excitement.

“What do I possess to be able to receive the assistance from you four Divine Beasts of Chaos? It, it—” Although Lyu Liang didn’t believe in pennies from heaven, such a scene made him feel like it was a dream.

“Haha, I had just stayed indoors for too long and came out to get some air and get together with my brothers. You seemed to be interesting, so I came and joined in the fun. Ape was called by me deliberately. His fighting capacity is the highest among the 10 of us! As far as your strength is concerned, you’d better unite with two beasts at a time at most, so that your Spiritual Qi can last longer.” Lyu Liang nodded frequently at White’s words, and he was much more confident in his strength when he was calm again.
