Chapter 1051: Crush
Warm sunlight shone down but for some reason, the square made of spirit ores did not feel warm at all. Instead, it was abnormally cold.
At this moment, the atmosphere here became strange and quiet.
A powerhouse beside Feng Xiang suddenly narrowed his eyes and secretly transmitted his voice, ‘Elder Feng Xiang, will this really be okay?’ He looked at Ou Yangming, his face full of worry.
He had great confidence in Feng Xiang, but his confidence in Ou Yangming… Was very little.
‘Don’t worry—let’s just watch,’ Feng Xiang replied with a voice transmission. A faint smirk of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth.
How could a powerhouse who could absorb all the attacks from Long Xiao, who was a dragon powerhouse, be a useless person? It would not be an exaggeration to say that Ou Yangming was a fierce tiger. No, that would even be an understatement.
Right at this moment, Feng Xiang recalled what Lil’ Red had said before. Ou Yangming was the greatest blacksmith in the Spiritual Realm. In this way, he could invite the young fellow to make a move and see if he could salvage the situation. Nonetheless, if that was the case, Feng Xiang had to think of a way to get Ou Yangming to join the Phoenixes and shut the mouths of the Main Combat Sect that advocated war. Otherwise, they would only be giving a chance for that sect to denounce them in the future.
Feng Xiang’s gaze quickly flickered twice, and he seemed to have thought of something.
On the other hand, the goshawk and King Kong exchanged a look and saw the warmth in each other’s eyes.
Even Big Yellow’s eyes were teary. It muttered in his heart, ‘Lil’ Ming…’ Its claws were squeezed together forcefully.
All of a sudden, Ou Yangming moved. His center of gravity was lowered, and he straightened his back. His body seemed to have turned black and white. He clasped his hands together. The powerful aura that he had gathered before seemed to have been condensed by a mysterious force. It turned into a towering mountain and pressed forward.
Feng Xinxiao’s eyes flashed with blood, and he did not say anything.
He tapped his interspatial bag with his right hand, and a 33-meters-tall cauldron flew out. It kept rotating and gave people a feeling that it was like a mountain or an abyss. It was incredibly heavy.
The cauldron was pitch-black. A phoenix pattern was carved on it.
Feng Xiang raised his eyebrows and said with a chuckle, “Brother Ou, you have to be careful. This is the Phoenixes’ Mountain-suppressing Sea Soul Cauldron, and it’s exceptionally heavy. There are 3,000 strands of black hair hidden inside. Each strand can crush a mountain and has the ability to rule over all times.” He disclosed all the information about the cauldron to Ou Yangming. Once again, the longer one lived, the more familiar one became with the ways of the world and one’s control over one’s mentality.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xinxiao sneered, “What’s the use of knowing? Can you block it?” This move was unreasonable, to begin with. What was important was that it could suppress others with force and defeat 10 people at the same time.
His hands quickly made a gesture, leaving only afterimages in the spiritual Qi in the air.
Following that, Feng Xinxiao pushed his right hand outward, and a skill was imprinted on the big cauldron. He shouted coldly, “A strand of black hair as heavy as a mountain—press!” As he spoke, his fingers drew a perfect arc in the air. Instantly, a thin black hair curved like a soaring snake. It flew out from the huge cauldron that was flickering with electric arcs and crashed toward the mountain that was pressing down on him. It grew with the wind and with every passing moment, its weight increased by tens of thousands of times.
The entire square continued to collapse downward.
1 inch, 2 inches, 3 inches…
A wailing sound resounded in the world. The power of a single strike was actually so terrifying. This was the terror of one who had taken that step. Every attack was tainted with the divine will of the immortal. It could resonate with the world and evolve into endless profoundness.
Feng Xinxiao’s eyes seemed to be smiling but in reality, a large portion of his attention had been on Feng Xiang.
He wanted to see if Feng Xiang would make a move. Otherwise, he would not have taken out the Mountain-suppressing Sea Soul Cauldron. As for Ou Yangming, he only regarded him as an insignificant Venerable One. A casual attack from him could slaughter the young fellow hundreds of times.
“Boom…” At the moment of the collision, the towering mountain showed signs of collapsing.
In an instant, the mountain completely collapsed.
Feng Xinxiao had a faint smile on his face as he thought, ‘Aren’t you going to make a move? If you’re even slightly late, this human will die here.’
Even so, when Feng Xinxiao saw Feng Xiang’s indifferent expression, he had a faint feeling that something was wrong. Moreover, what puzzled him the most was that there was no fear in the eyes of those lowly spirit beasts. Instead, there was a kind of eagerness as if they were looking forward to something?
At one point, Feng Xinxiao had a misconception that the insignificant human in front of him had the strength of a Ruler.
Nevertheless, this crazy thought only appeared for a moment before it was crushed by him. How would that be possible? Fighting against someone more superior was simply nonsense. After all, the distance between a Venerable One and a Ruler was an entire galaxy. The disparity was so huge that it was difficult to describe it. How could the young fellow fight against someone above his boundary?
The black hair became thicker and heavier. It was like a river flowing down from a high mountain. It was surging and was like a silver-white lightning bolt descending from the sky. It carried a monstrous momentum and was like a ferocious beast that had come from ancient times. It was heading toward Ou Yangming to devour him.
At the same time, Ou Yangming moved.
2 arcs of white and black intersected in his eyes, rotating in a unique rhythm.
His right middle finger gently pointed forward, and the corner of his mouth curled up. He revealed a harmless smile and uttered, “Devour…” One could see that the black hair seemed to be restrained by an invisible force. It was immediately pulled by a gentle wave-like force from both sides, dissolving bit by bit as it was slowly absorbed by the young fellow. This was the path of Yin and Yang, which could turn the void into reality and vice versa.
Under the contrast of this odd and indescribable scene and Ou Yangming’s smile, it gave the others goosebumps.
It was as if every flesh and every cell in their bodies could not help but tremble as if they had just seen something beyond their understanding.
The phoenix powerhouses behind Feng Xinxiao stared blankly as if they had seen a ghost.
What had they just seen? An insignificant Venerable One absorbed a Ruler’s attack? Was that not a dream? It was worth noting that Feng Xinxiao was a Ruler—a being that stood at the top of the pyramid of the Great Wide World.
Who knew, his attack was absorbed.
Furthermore, the opponent was a human. This had simply crushed their understanding.
Feng Xinxiao had not used his full strength in this attack, but a Ruler was still a Ruler. This was a difference in the levels of life.
On the side, Feng Xiang slowly exhaled a mouthful of white mist. This was not his first time seeing something like this, but he was still shocked. Yes, it was shocking. As for the 3 elders beside him, they were even more dumbstruck and stupefied. There was only one thought left in their mind. ‘Is he a true talent or a chosen one? But isn’t this a little too abnormal?’ The elders did not know that after Ou Yangming had fused the powers of the Dragons, the Phoenixes, and the Upper Tribulations, he had entered a whole new level of life.
To put it simply, the power of laws was only a means for him to fight against someone superior to him, but the foundation of that ability was the Bloodline Powers.
Multi-armed King Kong’s eyes were burning. Its fingers touched the back of his head, and it showed a simple and honest smile.
Big Yellow’s claws were tightly clenched, and its body was filled with explosive power! It was strange that other spirit beasts could transform into human form as long as they became Venerable Ones, but it was still the same. At most, the dragon horns on its head grew by 2 centimeters, but there was no change in the rest of its body.
After the goshawk became a Venerable One, he transformed into a human. He was dressed in green clothes, and he had a refined and handsome feeling.
Feng Xinxiao’s pupils suddenly contracted, and he uttered in a trembling voice, “The power of laws?”
His voice was filled with disbelief. He had never expected that this ordinary-looking human had comprehended the power of laws as a Venerable One. It was no wonder that he was always calm.
“I apologize.” Ou Yangming did not answer his question. His gaze was cold as he stared at Feng Xinxiao.
“You’re really confident. So what if you have the power of laws? An ant is an ant.” Ou Yangming’s cold attitude made Feng Xinxiao turn cold. He was testing Feng Xiang earlier and giving the young fellow a show of strength, but he had shifted a part of his anger onto the young fellow at this time.
Ou Yangming shook his head and questioned, “Previously, you said that this attack uses force to suppress people and that it can defeat 10 people in one go. What happened in the end?” His voice contained spiritual power and resounded in the square.
He deliberately paused. The corners of his mouth curled upward and revealed a bright smile. He answered his own question and said, “Not only was it blocked, but it was also absorbed.”
This was like a fierce slap on Feng Xinxiao’s face, and there was no way to hide it.
A ruthless glint flashed in Feng Xinxiao’s eyes as he said, “Very sharp words. I wonder how your strength compares to your words.”
As he spoke, his hands turned red, and his palms seemed to be flowing with magma. Both of his hands pressed down at the same time. With this, the universe shook, and he said coldly, “Thousands of strands as heavy as mountains—suppress!”
Subsequently, the cauldron began to spin rapidly. Strands of black hair flew out like algae with white edges and green stems in the water.
The lines of the green stems and white leaves were curved like light streams in the sky as they flew toward Ou Yangming. The moment they closed in, 1 turned into 10, 10 turned into 100, and in an instant, it felt as if they blotted the sky and covered the sun. They were densely packed and as numerous as the hairs of an ox. There was no way to avoid them. Each strand of black hair was thick and heavy, and the land was sinking rapidly. The more they pressed down, the lower the ground sank. One could imagine how heavy they were.
Ou Yangming’s thoughts sank slightly, and he entered the profound states of the thoroughly meticulous and the connection between Heaven and man.
Black and white intersected in his eyes, leaving only this awe-inspiring strike.
Black was not black, white was not white.
Black was black, white was white.
All kinds of mysteries evolved into thousands of great paths, thousands of worlds in the universe, and endless mysteries.
Ou Yangming’s body seemed to be divided by an invisible line, turning into a black and white Yin-Yang fish. Within 333 meters, immortal sounds rang out as if there were numerous divine chains of order stretching across the sky.
The young fellow disappeared, leaving only the Yin-Yang Fish to be seen.
“Dissolve!” The voice came from somewhere and sounded like it came from an immortal.
As it spread out, the surging black hair became smooth. The thick and heavy feeling was slowly stripped off. On the other hand, the Yin-Yang Fish became more solid. It stood tall between Heaven and Earth, shining with boundless light.
After 3 or 4 breaths, the dense black hair that looked like algae slowly dissipated as though they never appeared.
The Mountain-suppressing Sea Soul Cauldron trembled and fell from the sky. It seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, and its surface was covered with cracks. After a while, it simply collapsed.
Everyone could see that this was a crushing—a powerful crushing.
Not only was the Venerable One not defeated by the Ruler, but he had also left the other party unable to resist. This was too f*cking dreamy.
