A thunderous voice filled the air as though there were incoming thunderbolts.
Accompanied by the voice was Yuqi the Venerable One's forceful attack, where 3 sharp arrows seemed to have appeared out of nowhere to stab the 3 insect Venerable Ones.
The sharp arrows were formed from Yuqi the Venerable One's powers. He had exerted all his force but because his powers were split, he did not manage to threaten the insect Venerable Ones. Nonetheless, his goal was simple, which was to stop the 3 fellows from pestering the poisonous pill's spirit.
Inside the Big Mountain-guarding Formation, Ou Yangming's face changed, and he could not help but smile bitterly.
Since Yuqi the Venerable One was controlling the big formation, when the poisonous fog became less dense, he was able to pry outside again. Therefore, he noticed the 3 insect Venerable Ones coveting the poisonous pill's spirit.
However, Yuqi the Venerable One's good intention turned out to be unhelpful.
The poisonous pill's spirit was absorbing the insect Venerable Ones' powers in full force, and it would be unlikely for the Venerable Ones to notice this within a short period. This was because they were clueless about the changes in the world inside the poisonous pill, hence they would not be able to make the right judgment.
Even so, everything changed when Yuqi the Venerable One made a move.
As dumb as the 3 insect Venerable Ones were, they could not ignore the human Venerable One above their heads. Besides, the human was also the controller of the Big Mountain-guarding Formation.
Ghost-clawed Venerable One and the others moved their bodies slightly to release some powers to either block or destroy the sharp arrows that were aimed at them.
Black-faced Venerable One moved all 9 of its legs, where it directly cut off its connection with the multicolored hand that was grasped by the centipede. It looked up and shouted, “Quickly settle the spirit while I deal with Yuqi!”
With that, its body expanded in an instant, then it soared toward Yuqi like a meteorite.
Yuqi the Venerable One scoffed. He flashed as he wanted to get around the humongous insect to attack the 2 other insect Venerable Ones, but Black-faced Venerable One released multicolored silks from below his abdomen without warning. The silks seemed to be driven by a strong power as they spread in the boundless sky and formed a giant spider web in the blink of an eye.
It was evident that Yuqi the Venerable One was extremely fearful of the spider web as he kept s.h.i.+fting his body. He did not let the web touch him, but he could not charge down to attack anymore.
He cursed internally, 'Dumb spider, I can't believe that you didn't hesitate to stop me with your origin power so that your partners can steal the spirit. Aren't you scared that they'll hog the spirit for themselves?' He looked downward hatefully and helplessly.
Earlier when Yuqi the Venerable One activated the Big Mountain-guarding Formation's unique ability, he chose to strengthen it. Although it would give him more time to resist the poisonous fog's attack, it was a comprehensive defense, by which he would not be able to utilize the formation's power to attack during this period.
The Venerable One sacrificed the Beast King Sect's attacking power to strengthen their defense, but it was definitely the most suitable option at that time.
Nevertheless, the situation on the battlefield was ever-changing. Even Yuqi the Venerable One did not expect the spirit to be so powerful that it sucked most of the poisonous gases in a brief moment.
This was also the reason the Venerable Ones were daring enough to enter the environment where the poisonous fog was thinning and slowly disappearing.
If not, not to mention Yuqi the Venerable One, even the 3 insect Venerable Ones would have stayed away from the environment.
The big formation's defense was mighty, but it could not be utilized by Yuqi the Venerable One at the moment.
Before he left the formation, he had given the order to change it into a unique formation. If he wanted to change the defense order into a normal order or an offense order, it could not be done within a short period.
Yuqi the Venerable One was slightly regretful. It would be great if he had given the order earlier because with the big formation's power, he would be confident about fighting the 3 insect Venerable Ones alone.
When he faced Black-faced Venerable One, which had adopted its origin power, he could only evade it for the time being because he dared not be defeated and wounded together with it.
“Ghost-clawed, Gold-bodied, faster!” Black-faced Venerable One yelled while it released silks to form its spider web. “We're in the Beast King Sect's territory, after all. Once he activates the Big Mountain-guarding Formation's attack, we'll have to go away.”
Gold-bodied Venerable One and Ghost-clawed Venerable One smiled bitterly at each other. They swore internally, 'Who doesn't know that we shouldn't act faster? But this little poisonous pill's too strange; it can be in a stalemate with us in terms of power, which is truly unbelievable.'
The 2 insect Venerable Ones exchanged glances. They gritted their teeth, and the lights on their bodies became more intense.
Following that, they changed downward just like that.
Since they could not crush the poisonous pill with their powers, they decided to use their bodies. They were incredibly confident about their battle-seasoned bodies, and they figured that as weird as the poisonous pill was, it would not be able to resist the bodies of Venerable Ones.
The face of Ou Yangming, who was inside the Big Mountain-guarding Formation, changed slightly. He was different from Mao Jianbi, Immortal Fox, and the others; they could only vaguely see the situation outside the formation, whereas his mental conception was mysteriously connected with the poisonous pill's spirit.
As such, not only could he perceive everything happening in the outside world, but he could also sense the condition and the thoughts of the poisonous pill's spirit.
When the poisonous pill's world was officially activated, its spirit's wisdom was also substantially enhanced. In particular, the look in its eyes became the same as that of a normal person. Having said that, in Ou Yangming's sea of consciousness, the little spirit's conception was still tame and had not changed from before. As long as the young fellow was willing to, he could replace the spirit to control its body at any time.
Seeing as the 2 Venerable Ones were incoming, Ou Yangming ordered the spirit to escape without any hesitation.
The big centipede, which transformed into a spiritual body, was formidable and could have a trial of strength with the Venerable Ones on a certain level. Despite that, Ou Yangming dared not guarantee what would happen after the poisonous pill's body was impacted by them.
This was why he must avoid the 2 fearsome powerhouses.
The centipede's body shrunk all of a sudden, and its tail turned into a black light. It rolled up the poisonous pill and sent it into its body.
Ghost-clawed Venerable One and Gold-bodied Venerable One could not help but freeze for a second. They had seen the centipede's origin power just now, which was why they wanted to acquire it. Who knew, the centipede found out about their intention before they could even make a move, and it made the right reaction by devouring the poisonous pill with its tail.
In this case, unless the insect Venerable Ones break the giant centipede's body, they would be helpless.
The 2 Venerable Ones looked at each other. Ghost-clawed Venerable One had a fierce look in its eyes as it uttered, “Pester it while I look for it!”
“Okay.”
Subsequently, Gold-bodied Venerable One opened its mouth and roared at the centipede.
Its voice was exceptionally odd. Consequently, the wriggling giant centipede's body stiffened, and it seemed to look dazed.
Gold-bodied Venerable One then twisted its body and transformed its body to be as enormous as that of the centipede. Next, it pounced on the centipede to coil around it.
Even though the centipede was born from spiritual power, it was instantly solidified when Gold-bodied Venerable One wrapped its body around it.
Ou Yangming quivered a little. He actually sensed the frightening pressure from the conception of the poisonous pill's spirit.
Sure enough, Venerable Ones had unordinary powers. Once Gold-bodied Venerable One went all out, it grasped the spirit's weakness right away and stopped it from breaking free.
Ou Yangming would not be too worried if Gold-bodied Venerable One was alone. After all, a poisonous pill's word was contained inside the centipede's body. No matter how forceful the external power was, as long as it did not exceed the world's limit, the poisonous pill's spirit would not be threatened.
However, a similarly powerful insect Venerable One—Ghost-clawed—was outside at the moment.
Its eyes suddenly shot out lights with indescribably terrifying powers as it scanned the centipede's body.
Ou Yangming gasped. For some reason, he had a feeling.
He had a feeling that he and the poisonous pill's spirit were perceived, and it seemed like they could not hide anything from the Venerable One anymore.
As expected, Ghost-clawed Venerable One laughed delightfully and shouted, “I found it!”
It swayed and flashed to somewhere around the centipede, then it reached out its claws to penetrate the centipede's body. At this point, it almost got its hand on the poisonous pill.
Once the 2 insect Venerable Ones gave all they had, they were mighty indeed, such that even the poisonous pill, which had just formed a world earlier, could not resist them anymore.
That said, just as Ghost-clawed Venerable One was smiling victoriously, its body halted.
Afterward, instead of advancing, it retreated fast to leave the spot.
The brief delay was all the poisonous pill took to slide away and drift somewhere else.
At the spur of the moment, an old macaque appeared in mid-air. It looked down quietly and helplessly.
Ghost-clawed Venerable One and Gold-bodied Venerable One looked up at the same time and denounced, “Old macaque, what are you doing?”
Ou Yangming and the others were still inside the Big Mountain-guarding Formation, but they could see the old macaque.
Other than a handful of them, the others were dumbfounded. In particular, many ordinary disciples from the Beast King Sect widened their eyes and were lost for words.
It turned out that the old fellow, which seemed to have become a mascot in the sect, was a powerhouse that could resist Venerable Ones.
The old macaque smiled bitterly at the 2 insect Venerable Ones. “I'm sorry, but I can't let you have the spirit.”
Ghost-clawed Venerable One was furious. “Old macaque, are you trying to violate the contract between the Insects and the Walking Beasts?”
The old macaque sighed. Seeing as Gold-bodied Venerable One was still wrestling with the big centipede, cracks were suddenly heard coming from its body as it grew bigger by a few times.
“For the sake of the spirit, I won't hesitate to violate our contract!” It looked at Ghost-clawed Venerable One and opened its mouth to let out an earth-shattering roar.
“Roar—come…”
