Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 423
Advertisement
Far away, many shadows glided at the speed of light in the sky. They kept a certain distance between each other as though they were flying in a mysterious formation.
Ou Yangming and his companions watched. Perhaps the other people were not aware, but they had experienced it once. Sure enough, the fearsome shadows in the sky became hesitant when they approached Feiya County, and they kept hovering in the same area without crossing bounds.
Yu Hongli and the other people from the city looked at each other and were confused.
"They're afraid because Multi-armed King Kong is here." Ou Yangming grinned.
"Yes, you're right!" Yu Hongli's eyes lit up. He chuckled and explained, "Every spirit beast gives off a frightening aura, and the area covered by one's aura is considered a forbidden area. The low-rank creatures don't have the guts to violate the spirit beast because they sensed its aura."
Before his voice died away, another bird's cry was heard coming from afar. It was evident that the birds were restless, and they were eager to attack. Nonetheless, when they flew to a critical point where they no longer had a clear path, they shuddered with fear and retreated again.
It was interesting to watch them going back and forth, so Ou Yangming and the others were amazed.
Nevertheless, they did not completely relax. They still kept their guards up, especially Feiya County's powerhouses, who had experienced attacks from the birds several times.
All of a sudden, a giant shadow appeared in the sky.
It was a humongous goshawk, whose body was as huge as a building.
When it began to soar toward the city, Heaven and Earth seemed to be filled with its majestic aura.
"Ah, the spirit beast turns out to be a goshawk…" Zuoqiu Hongyuan mumbled.
"Brother Zuoqiu, you've been here for a long time. Have you not seen the spirit beast before this?" Ou Yangming questioned.
"No," Zuoqiu Hongyuan answered without any hesitation, "The spirit beast's extremely cunning; it has only sent its followers here to harass us. Similar to the Insects' spirit beast in Huangsha County, I kept feeling like it's waiting for something. They don't seem to care too much about getting rid of the Humans."
Ou Yangming was stunned. "But your counties have been writing to seek help. Aren't you in imminent danger?"
Zuoqiu Hongyuan was hesitant. He turned to glance at Wu Hanning and whispered to the young fellow, "If we didn't exaggerate the situation, would the capital send us more resources?"
Ou Yangming was dumbfounded. He secretly glanced at the unknowing Wu Hanning too and thought, 'If Her Highness hears about this, I suppose she'll kill this fella.'

Despite that, Zuoqiu Hongyuan was only a guest in Feiya County, so he could not meddle in this.
The people were nervous as soon as the goshawk appeared. In fact, Yu Hongli could not help but place his hand on his waist.
Ou Yangming looked through the corners of his eyes and figured that the great ancestor carried a trump card with him.
The birds in the sky were excited when the goshawk appeared. They still did not dare to cross the invisible high-tension line, but they began to make noises.
Multi-armed King Kong looked up lazily, but it finally had a grim look on its face.
Creatures in the sky would always have an advantage in a fight, hence they were one of the most-hated creatures of the walking beasts. Needless to say, birds would have lower combat power if they could not fly and would become delicious food for beasts.
The goshawk flew steadily and arrived in front of the boundary in the sky. It suddenly stopped because a peculiar airflow spiraled around its wings, causing it to hang in mid-air. Sure enough, everyone who witnessed this was envious of the ability.
While the goshawk had a fierce look in its eyes, it was not staring at Feiya City but at Multi-armed King Kong, which seemed to be more important and more dangerous than the whole city.
"Walking beast, why are you invading my territory?" The goshawk shrieked and let out a deafening roar.
There was an uproar atop the city walls. Other than a few, the other people made a big fuss about it.
'A spirit beast can actually talk?' It was beyond their understanding.
"This is your territory? Haha, don't make me laugh!" Multi-armed King Kong responded lazily and waved its hand. "Come down here and let me teach you some manners!"
The goshawk ignored Multi-armed King Kong's challenge and noted, "The Four Great Races agreed to this long ago. If you insist on doing this, you're breaking the contract."
Yu Hongli and the other people watched the two formidable giant beasts nervously, afraid that they would come up with a cooperation agreement.
Feiya Cheng was already exhausted from going against one spirit beast. If they were to face two at the same time… Even the most optimistic person dared not think further.
They only hoped that Ou Yangming could control the massive creature without problems.
Multi-armed King Kong widened its mouth as though it heard the funniest joke in the world. "It wasn't me who broke the contract."
"It wasn't you? Why are you here then?" The goshawk shouted furiously.

"I followed my master here." Multi-armed became more cheerful. "If you're not satisfied with anything, you can complain to my master."
"Master?" The goshawk was obviously startled. It could tell from Multi-armed King Kong's aura that it was a mighty high-rank spirit beast and was at least superior to it. 'How can a spirit beast like him have a master in this realm?'
At the spur of the moment, the goshawk recalled something, and it began to speak carefully, "Ha-have you met… Is that sir really in this realm?"
It heard a legend before it descended here. It was only a legend, but given that it had to do with that clan, it was not a trivial matter at all.
Besides, apart from that figure, it did not know who else could subdue Multi-armed King Kong in this world.
Multi-armed King Kong laughed out loud. "Don't speak nonsense. My master's a human."
"A hu… Man?" The goshawk looked dizzy. It could not believe it even when Multi-armed King Kong admitted it.
As such, Multi-armed King Kong turned and asked loudly, "Master, this fella's questioning you. Do you want me to capture and roast it?"
Ou Yangming flashed away from the battlement and arrived at the high tower.
He stared at the goshawk in the distance. There was a huge disparity between their sizes, but he was not afraid of the enormous bird at all.
For some reason, Ou Yangming was proud but could not explain himself. No matter where he was, he felt like he must not flinch from the birds.
It was a feeling without a source, but it was so strong that it was beyond his control.
The goshawk turned, releasing a fearsome aura as its body moved in mid-air. It stared at Ou Yangming with its sharp hawk eyes as if it wanted to perceive him right away.
"Have you gone mad? It's just an ordinary human, how can you call it your master!" The goshawk roared angrily after some time. "Walking beasts are walking beasts indeed; you're never up to standard!"
Multi-armed King Kong was not enraged. It had a strange look in its eyes as it noted, "Is that so? You can try if he's qualified to be my master."
The goshawk looked coldly at Ou Yangming but could not sense anything special from him no matter what. He was a Human martial artist, had not become a Supreme Great Ancestor, and seemed to have overly powerful mental power. Even so, they could not justify a mighty spirit beast like Multi-armed King Kong submitting itself to him.
Without warning, the goshawk flapped its large wings, forming a gigantic wind blade in the air.
The wind blad was entirely different from the Skill Equipment smithed by Ou Yangming because it was the size of a windmill. The whooshing sound due to its spiraling movement was ear-splitting, to the extent that it seemed like the whole world was quaking because of it.
Yu Hongli's face changed, and he yelled, "Defense!"
Various defensive and offensive tools were pushed out at once. The weapons that were especially used against the bird spirit beast were incredibly forceful. However, nobody could guarantee that they could be effective if they were used against the spirit beast.
The wind blade whistled in the wind as it zoomed toward Ou Yangming.
Ou Yangming was calm as usual as if he did not think it was a big deal. In reality, monstrous waves surged his sea of consciousness.
'What exactly is Multi-armed King Kong trying to do? Is it trying to kill me through this goshawk?' He did not think he could withstand the savage wind blade without being harmed at all.
It was a real spirit beast's attack, after all. Other than Multi-armed King Kong, Wu Yuanwei—the Humans' strongest powerhouse—was probably the only person in this world who could face the attack with ease.
Just as Ou Yangming was thinking if he should put down his pride to dodge the attack, a giant figure appeared in front of him. Following that, Multi-armed King Kong swung one of its arms like a hammer.
"Boom…"
Consequently, the massive wind blade was crushed by Multi-armed King Kong's steel arm.
It looked up coldly at the goshawk and uttered, "You're courting death!"
The goshawk flapped its wings and laughed out loud. "The pretentious fella showed its true colors!"
Multi-armed King Kong curled its lips into a meaningful smile, and it was noticeable through its eyes that it was mocking but was also sympathizing with the goshawk.
The goshawk was infuriated, thus it let out a long whistle, which spread far and wide. As a result, the birds behind it went mayhem. They no longer bothered about the colossal spirit beast's pressure as they flew toward the other walls in Feiya City.
