Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 446 – Rune Attacks

Chapter 446 Rune Attacks

The person Ou Yangming and the goshawk were staring at was a man that was roughly 30 years old. Like everybody else, the man seemed to be in pain as he held his head and groaned. He was not loud, but the way he gritted his teeth was not suspicious at all so it did not seem strange.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming and the goshawk in the sky were not observing through their eyes.

The Military Fire in Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness was triggered, and it perfectly outlined the man’s true form, hence he was able to identify him right away.

On the other hand, the goshawk was able to recognize the man due to its incomprehensible instinct. In actuality, according to Ou Yangming’s understanding, the goshawk regarded powerful insects as its food. It was worth noting that any living being would be attracted and became eager when they stumbled upon food.

In particular, the insects from the upper realm were unquestionably the best nourishments in the upper realm, which did not have abundant spiritual Qi, thus the goshawk could locate its prey accurately. Nevertheless, Ou Yangming did not act rashly. He turned to let Wu Hanning and Ni Yinghong know about his plan.

The two young ladies smiled and nodded to give their consent.

Every parasite represented great mental power, which would be quite a pity if wasted. Since Ou Yangming had the Devouring ability to convert the power, why not share it with his closed ones?

Besides, the three of them were bound together by a subtle and wonderful connection ever since the two ladies accepted the mental power. If their mental powers continued to grow, the connection would certainly become stronger.

Ou Yangming was eager to find out what would happen if they became as capable as him. After receiving a message from Ou Yangming’s conception, the goshawk in the mid-air let out another long cry. Its cry was supposedly extremely oppressive, but it controlled it on purpose so the effect on Supreme Great Ancestors would not be too obvious. Moreover, the people in the martial arts field would only suffer mental shocks and would recover after some rest. If that was not the case, Yu Jinshuang and the others would not have allowed the goshawk to do this on a large scale.

The goshawk’s shriek was much louder this time, which was also more effective than before.

Almost half of the people collapsed to the ground.

It was then when Ou Yangming, Ni Yinghong, and Wu Hanning made their move. They moved as fast as lightning, by which they arrived beside their target almost immediately after they jumped onto the field.

This time, they were facing a parasite. Although the parasite was not attached to a Supreme Great Ancestor, none of them dared to treat it lightly. After all, the Insects had countless odd tricks, which could catch one off guard. Ou Yangming instantly grabbed the man’s arm and stared at him.

At this point, he was certain that he was not mistaken.

The man appeared to be in pain and was afraid, but the depths of his eyes were ice-cold. The chillness seemed to have come from hell, and it could freeze one’s consciousness.

Only the Insects possessed such a fearsome and unfeeling consciousness.

The parasite did not struggle at all when his eyes met Ou Yangming’s, but a contemptuous look could be seen through its eyes.

‘So what if you found me? You’re the one that’s going to die…’

Its mental power surged into Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness through its eyes, and it carried such a crushing force that it could not be resisted at all.

Ou Yangming’s eyelids twitched. He had initially thought about numerous ways to lure the parasite’s consciousness into his sea of consciousness because it was the only place he could unleash the Military Fire and the Devouring power without being noticed by the other people. He did not want to expose his secret to the public, so if the parasite refused to enter, he would be forced to kill it at once.

Who knew, the parasite entered his sea of consciousness before he could even bait it, hence he was surprised yet overjoyed.

The parasite’s power was ice-cold, to the extent that it could likely freeze everything.

Ou Yangming was taken aback the instant he came into contact with the power. The aura contained the fixed power property that generally belonged to the Insects, but it was clear that it was from another species. There were only slight differences in the aura, so much so that other people might not be able to tell the dissimilarities. Despite that, the contrasts were as clear as a bright lamp in the dark to Ou Yangming as he probed with his mental conception.

Regardless of the type of parasite, its fate was already doomed.

Ou Yangming hid his Military Fire and the Devouring attribute. He began to face the parasite with his mental power.

Without a doubt, life-or-death battles against spirit beasts that cultivated mental power were important to Ou Yangming and were most desired by him.

His power had reached a bottleneck, so he dared not advance further in this world. Even so, through battles like that, the young fellow could develop a greater understanding of mental power and the way to control it. In a way, through learning, he could grasp more reasonable methods to use his mental power.

Before this, Ou Yangming managed to cause huge destruction by using all of his mental power. After tempering his power, he could increase the level of destruction by 10%. It would only be a 10% increment, but the actual effect would be quite frightening. Two mental powers confronted each other in Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness. The young fellow could sense the parasite’s mightiness. It was not because the parasite could crush him with its power, but because it could control its mental power so finely that it was unfathomable.

However, Ou Yangming had his strengths too.

Apart from his mental power, his sea of consciousness stored various runes.

The runes were Skill Runes that he gained after learning from other people, and they were his greatest fortune.

Ou Yangming was under attack when he faced the first parasite, so the runes were beyond his reach even if he wanted to utilize them.

This time, given that Ou Yangming perceived something greater about mental power, he could activate the runes in his sea of consciousness even when he was being attacked.

With that, a rune drifted and transformed into an endless wind as it was being forcefully blown toward the parasite’s consciousness.

The wind was so strong that it could almost overturn Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness.

Having said that, the insect’s mental power quickly shrunk and assembled into a giant hard rock. The rock was incredibly heavy, by which the wind could not move it at all.

That said, Ou Yangming had more than one of this type of rune.

His mental power fluctuated again as another rune lit up and drifted toward the hard rock.

Consequently, about ten stone awls of different lengths emerged from the hard rock. The stone awls rose into mid-air, then another run landed on them. Following that, a “pow” was heard as the stone awls exploded and scattered everywhere like stars.

“Hiss…”

A weird sound was heard coming from the hard rock. It could gather mental power into a rock, which was a rather bold technique. Nonetheless, Ou Yangming’s rune attacks were drastic measures as they slowly crushed the hard rock’s foundation. If the parasite did not resist harder, it would likely have to watch its power decline until nothing was left.

Subsequently, the hard rock began to spin and attacked in the runes’ direction.

As long as the runes were destroyed, even if Ou Yangming would not immediately die, his vitality would be ruined.

In spite of that, just as the hard rock began to move, a chill entirely different from the insect’s surfaced. The chillness was purely cold as though there was no longer heat in the world.

The hard rock was still turning, but its speed changed drastically. It was as fast as an airplane earlier, but it was now dragging along at a snail’s pace.

On the other hand, the drifting runes moved backward. Instead of getting closer to the hard rock, they were pulled further away.

When Ou Yangming sensed the parasite’s anger and slight fear, Ou Yangming finally confirmed that he had advanced by leaps and bounds in terms of controlling his mental power.

Sure enough, life-or-death training was the best catalyst for one’s growth.

The two parasites attached to bodies with different physical qualities, but their mental powers were similar to each other.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming could only resist when he went against the first parasite’s mental power, such that he could not counterattack at all. No matter how the young fellow used his mental power, he felt like his hands were tied.

On the contrary, he was able to employ the Rune Powers in his sea of consciousness this time.

With help from the Rune Powers, he gained the upper hand at once.

Needless to say, Ou Yangming understood that it did not mean he could overtake his opponent.

The Insects definitely had an arsenal of irresistible runes too, but the fight was happening in Ou Yangming’s home ground. Besides, the parasites were only clones of the spirit insect, thus it was quite remarkable that they could fully unleash their mental powers. In any case, they would not be able to release Rune Skills in his sea of consciousness.

“Pow!” The hard rock exploded, but the explosion was initiated by it. As a result, the disintegrated mental power penetrated the chillness and gathered again in another area.

While some mental power was lost during the process, the parasite had completely broken free from the awkward situation.

That being said, as soon as the power got together again, it was ruthlessly struck by a lightning bolt.
