Chapter 658: The Lizards Take Revenge

Ou Yangming chuckled and went forward. “Big Yellow, congratulations.”

After advancing into a middle-rank spirit beast, even in the Spiritual Realm, Big Yellow would be more than just a passerby.

The big lazy turtle checked out Big Yellow in confusion and with a look of doubt. It blurted after some time, “I get it now—you became a spirit beast in the lower realm.”

“What?” Big Yellow was slightly stunned. It looked strangely at the big lazy turtle.

Ou Yangming responded in a deep voice, “Yes, Big Yellow and I advanced to Spirit Grade in the lower realm.”

The big lazy turtle laughed out loud. “I see, so you withstood the Heavenly Thunderbolts in the lower realm. Heh, your bodies are much tougher than how they should be according to your boundaries, so no wonder.”

Ou Yangming was startled. He finally knew that getting through the Thunderbolts Disaster in the lower realm turned out to be a great thing.

Nonetheless, even he shuddered with fear at the thought of how fearsome the disaster was. He did not know if he would still have the guts to experience it again.

Big Yellow wagged its tail and twisted its body proudly. It released an enormous and concentrated aura from its body.

The lazy turtle moved its head again and was even more puzzled. “This isn’t right—isn’t your aura too concentrated for a spirit beast that has just advanced?”

Ou Yangming turned to look at Big Yellow in shock, but he sensed that its aura was only considered steady and was still far from being concentrated. Besides, he also vaguely sensed something familiar from the big yellow dog.

His Military Fire’s aura seemed to have hidden inside Big Yellow too, but the big yellow dog had only gained a small bit of it. As for how the dog could apply it, it would be another problem.

Big Yellow shook its body and asked, “Lazy turtle, this is how I am when I advance. You’re not jealous, are you?”

The big lazy turtle rolled its eyes and tilted its head. It looked gloomy and bewildered.

After looking quietly at Ou Yangming and Big Yellow for a brief moment, it finally shook its head and cast all its questions aside.

‘This human and this dog aren’t ordinary cultivators, so why should I worry about them?’

Ou Yangming grinned without saying a word. As he waved his hand gently, the poisonous pill’s spirit carried a formation board on its back and approached him. The young fellow kept the board and expressed sincerely, “Lil’ fella, you made a huge contribution this time!”

If the spirit had not released poisonous gas to invade the high-rank lizard discreetly, Ou Yangming would not have confirmed that the lizard’s Venerable One’s consciousness was gone, and he would not have dared to act rashly.

The poisonous pill’s spirit swayed its body and screeched cheerfully.

“Master Ou, how did you know that the lizard no longer had a Venerable One’s consciousness?” The big lazy turtle asked as it suddenly recalled something.

“I only guessed it.” Ou Yangming chuckled and explained, “It would’ve seized the opportunity to attack us if its Venerable One’s consciousness was still powerful enough. Heh, since it retreated and wanted to escape instead, isn’t it guilty?”

The big lazy turtle was dumbfounded for some time. It remarked with a bitter smile, “You were daring enough to attack because of that? You’re really, really...” It uttered the same word repeatedly but could not describe the hothead.

It was glad when the lizard retreated because it did not have the thought to provoke a powerhouse with a Venerable One’s consciousness.

Nevertheless, after Ou Yangming initiated an attack, the lazy turtle knew that the lizard’s Venerable One’s consciousness was short-lived and disappeared very soon.

The big lazy turtle was extremely curious about how Ou Yangming perceived it, but the young fellow’s answer made it speechless.

It yawned and no longer wanted to get to the bottom of it. “Master Ou, the fight has ended. I’d like to take the middle-rank lizard away as nutrients for the flowers and herbs.” It blinked and added, “I’d like to go back.”

Ou Yangming shook his head helplessly, then he retrieved a Long Feather Band and let the turtle enter the space inside.

Once the big lazy turtle was gone, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow looked at each other and sighed breaths of relief at the same time.

The big fellow was a reliable combat force indeed, but some things could not be said in front of it.

Following that, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow flashed to the spot where the first fight took place, then they kept the utterly dead high-rank lizard. Although the big yellow’s eyes were jade green when it looked at the carcass, it dared not absorb its flesh and blood without restraint anymore.

The 2 of them looked at each other with lingering fear.

It seemed like Ou Yangming and Big Yellow did most of the work during the ambush to kill the high-rank spirit beasts, but the one that fatally attacked the beasts and trapped them was the big lazy turtle.

If the turtle had not held the lizards with its giant mouth, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow would only be able to hurt them by relying on the formation map, and they would not be able to make the lizards stay.

Having said that, they could only deal with a high-rank spirit beast at a time even with the big lazy turtle’s help. If the 2 high-rank spirit beasts had walked side by side, the outcome would be different.

“Lil’ Ming, what do we do now? Are we still going to wait here?” Big Yellow wagged its tail and asked in a high spirit.

It benefited very much from this incident and advanced as well, hence it was full of confidence and could not wait to meet another high-rank lizard.

However, Ou Yangming shook his head without any hesitation. “No, we must leave.”

“Why?” Big Yellow was upset

Ou Yangming sighed and asked, “The missing of 1 middle-rank lizard and 5 low-rank lizards drew 2 high-rank ones here. Heh, if the others find out that the 2 high-rank lizards went missing at the same time too, who do you think will come next?”

Big Yellow was struck dumb. It shivered and asked the young fellow, “A Venerable One?”

“It might not be a Venerable One but judging from the situation, the number of high-rank spirit beasts will at least be several times more than before.” Ou Yangming shook his head and smiled faintly. “Do you think we’ll be able to go against them even if we join hands?”

The big yellow dog shrunk its neck and answered with flickering eyes, “No way.”

If 4 high-rank spirit beasts were to show up together, even with the big lazy turtle’s help, they could only escape.

That would be the result of a disparity between their absolute strengths, and it could not be changed even if Ou Yangming had many schemes and set up everything meticulously. At this moment, the young fellow missed Multi-armed King Kong and the goshawk very much. If those 2 helpers were around, while they might not be able to resist a Venerable One, they could cooperate with his formation boards and deal with the Twelve Walkers in batches.

Big Yellow was dejected. It wagged its tail and asked, “Where should we go now then?”

Ou Yangming chuckled and answered, “Let’s go around in circles with them.”

Once the human and the dog finished discussing, they left the place at once.

Several figures arrived after a day. They were lizard powerhouses from the Insects.

They were cautious as if they were about to face a formidable enemy.

As guessed by Ou Yangming, the Lizards had a unique trick that they used among them. When 2 of the Twelve Walkers died, the rest were alerted as well.

Since the enemy could take down 2 of the Walkers, the other Walkers dared not underestimate the enemy, so much so that they only came here to investigate when 6 of them gathered. Despite that, Ou Yangming was well-prepared. Other than leaving behind a loophole on purpose, he erased every possible trace, thus the lizards would not be able to find anything no matter how hard they looked.

Apart from being able to sense the auras of their partners’ deaths, the lizards would not be able to conclude anything.

After inspecting carefully for a long time, the 6 Walkers assembled again and informed each other about what they found. Unfortunately, they were helpless because the scene was cleaned up very well.

As the 6 mighty high-rank spirit beasts looked at each other, one of them blurted, “Do you think this was the doing of that human from the lower realm?”

“Hmph, that’s impossible! How could a mere human from the lower realm kill our comrades? Given that this happened soundlessly, it must be done by a top-notch force!”

“I found poison here,” another lizard stated, “The poison’s rather odd, but it carries the unique toxicity of us Insects.”

“Oh, which race does it belong to?”

“The 10,000-legged.”

Upon hearing that, all of the lizards fell silent and exchanged glances. It was obvious through their eyes that they were wary.

Other people might not be aware, but they knew very well that the 10,000-legged were the ones that leaked news about the human from the lower realm.

The Twelve Walkers had been looking for clues around this area, but 2 of them were ambushed by an influential force and died, which was quite disastrous. Who knew, the other walkers found poison from the 10,000-legged in this place, and they shuddered with fear at the thought of the meaning behind this.

“What should we do?”

“Inform Sir Venerable One. It looks like this matter has gone out of our hands.” The head of the Twelve Walked pondered for some time and finally made a decision. That said, it slowly had a sinister look in its eyes. “Our comrades can’t die in vain, so we must make our enemy pay!”

“Okay, what do you have in mind?” A few voices were heard almost at the same time.

The Twelve Walkers were not prime living beings, but they were powerhouses at the top level of the pyramid. Now that 2 of them died, they would fall into disrepute and be scorned if they chose to keep quiet about it.

“Look into the origin of this matter.” The head lizard looked like a peerless evil devil that had just descended into this realm. It was full of killing intent as it uttered, “Their blood must be repaid with more blood...”

After several days, at the border between the Humans and the Beasts, 2 small towns were attacked by the Insects almost concurrently.

Such attacks were not rare because the Humans and the Beasts would often fight due to different conflicts between them.

Nonetheless, the outcome of the attacks was shocking this time.

All of the humans from the small towns were killed, and it was tragic because most of the corpses were incomplete.

The human village at the back quickly sent a warning signal and delivered the message to the higher-ups.
