Chapter 716: A New World

There was only an increase in the poisonous fog that lingered outside the Beast King Sect’s Big Mountain-guarding Formation. It seemed to be showing a trend of becoming denser.

Far away, Ghost-clawed Venerable One and the 2 other insect Venerable Ones looked slightly delighted because they saw Yuqi the Venerable One’s choice. After the poisonous fog’s intensity was increased to its upper limit, the human Venerable made a decisive choice by using an accumulated special power from the big formation to resist the poisonous gases.

Nonetheless, instead of choosing the simplest trick, which was blowing away the poisonous gases using strong winds, Yuqi the Venerable One decided to increase the protective shield’s strength.

The news could not have been better for the insect Venerable Ones.

They looked at each other and noticed how elated they all were.

Although they did not know why Yuqi the Venerable One would make such a choice as though he was looking for trouble, they understood one thing. An influential sect’s Big Mountain-guarding Formation was extremely tough, but it was also the exact reason a sect like that would be used to being assertive in operating the formation.

In other words, now that Yuqi the Venerable One chose to strengthen the big formation, he would not be able to make any changes within a short period.

For a certain time, the Big Mountain-guarding Formation would be strengthened until the limit was reached.

Once the choice was made, not to mention stirring up wind or rain outside, even if the people inside the formation wanted to leave, it would be incredibly difficult.

Needless to say, the Big Mountain-guarding Formation was similar to a thickened turtle shell at the moment, hence it would be more difficult to penetrate it. Even so, as compared to dispersing the poisonous fog, the insect Venerable Ones would rather Yuqi the Venerable One solidify the formation further.

“Continue…” Ghost-clawed Venerable One took a deep breath to gather the poisonous gas inside its body before it released everything in one go. It was doing what little it could to further intensify the already dense poisonous fog.

Black-faced Venerable One laughed. “Yes, let’s continue! Heh, let’s see if we’re more well-prepared or the Humans’ shell is tougher.” It swung its long leg in the air, where it instantly retrieved a bottle of pills to consume them. After a brief moment, various colors emerged from its body, then it spat out its exceptionally toxic poisonous gas.

Gold-bodied Venerable One did not want to show a weak impression; it breathed slowly.

Even though it looked like its momentum was not as fearsome as that of the 2 other Venerable Ones, Ghost-clawed and Black-faced knew they were inferior to it in terms of breathing out poisonous gas.

Gold-bodied Venerable One was silent, but it was so well-known for its mightiness in poison that it could be in the top 3 among the Insects.

Seeing as how leisure it was, Ghost-clawed Venerable One and Black-faced Venerable One exchanged glances and had the same thought.

‘A barking dog won’t bite, whereas a biting dog won’t bark.

‘We should be more cautious around Gold-bodied in the future.’

Fortunately, Gold-bodied Venerable One did not know what its comrades were thinking while it was working hard, or it would have been so furious that it would vomit blood.

As the 3 Venerable Ones worked together, the poisonous fog’s toxicity seemed to have increased. Even when the Big Mountain-guarding Formation was strengthened, it seemed to be on the verge of collapsing and could not hold on any longer.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming was not paying attention to the formation.

Since the formation was being handled by Yuqi the Venerable One, it was not something that the young fellow could be concerned about.

Ou Yangming was not someone that would worry about everything while also having to look after himself.

He had curbed his thought and was focusing on the poisonous pill’s spirit.

The young fellow sensed that the centipede’s body shrunk again, such that it was almost only the size of a normal person’s thumb and was even smaller than the poisonous pill itself. Its body might have contracted, but the vortex above its head grew much bigger and was spinning faster than it was before.

Plenty of poisonous gases entered the vortex at every minute and second, then they were refined before their essences were channeled into the poisonous pill.

At this moment, Ou Yangming’s consciousness also entered the poisonous pill along with the endless energies.

Luckily, the poisonous pill was refined by Ou Yangming, thus there was naturally a mysterious contract between them. Regardless of how intense the poisons inside the pill were, they could not affect his mental conception at all. If not, his bit of mental power would have been eroded long ago, and he might turn into an idiot.

The inside of the poisonous pill was already a self-contained space, which was not a dead space unlike that of an interspatial bag; it was a space full of energy.

Yes, this was a marvelous space that was forcibly accumulated using poisons as the direction and energies.

The entire space was empty at this moment but as poisonous gases gushed in without an end, numerous peculiar things appeared in the void.

They were nebulas, which were gathered from different gases.

Ou Yangming was certain that once the energies that were converted from poisonous gases entered the poisonous pill, there would be a drastic change.

The change was not on the surface, but the substance itself.

For instance, if one had a handful of soil, no matter how hard one tried or refined using different techniques, the soil could not be turned into a bucket of water.

However, something as unbelievable as that was possible inside the poisonous pill’s world. The poisons that gushed into the world were no longer pure poisonous gases, but energies that converted into things that were needed by the world.

It was the conversion from energies into mass…

Ou Yangming watched everything happen. He was so immersed in it that he seemed to have forgotten about time.

He observed as the whole sky went from being empty to being filled with countless nebulas. Moreover, he saw various round spheres with defects being born.

All of them were actually converted from the poisonous gases’ energies.

Inside the world, the poisonous gases’ energies seemed to be almighty. They could transform into anything as they wished, and the only goal of those things was to form a world of their own.

Yes, when Ou Yangming stayed in the world, and a certain memory from the Phoenixes awoke in his spiritual world, he realized how astounding his encounter was.

He had come across an exceptional opportunity like never before as he was witnessing a world being born.

Spirit.

This was all because of a spirit.

Whether it was the poisonous pill’s spirit or any other spirit, the existence of every spirit was unusually precious because they could form worlds of their own.

Of course, even the rarest spirit would find it difficult to create a living world; most of them would naturally disappear without being found by other living beings.

Even when some people obtained spirits by luck, they could not provide those spirits with the freedom and energies that they needed. Therefore, those spirits would end up becoming the spirits of certain pieces of equipment, which were the most powerful items in the world as they could upgrade on their own.

Having said that, every spirit could undergo a final evolution, which was to form a world.

The only thing was that such spirits had strict requirements, and the success rates were so low that they were unacceptable.

That said, Ou Yangming had unknowingly watched a spirit’s world being born.

The vast sky, the mysterious yet forceful nebulas, as well as the dissimilar spheres—they were filled with indescribable and unexplainable natural laws or more.

Ou Yangming watched blankly. The only thing that he could do was watch and remember the majestic phenomenon as much as he could.

This experience would not be directly helpful to him at the moment, but he believed that this would definitely be the greatest fortune in his life.

At last, Ou Yangming’s vision went blurry as he detached himself from the boundless starry sky. By the time he opened his eyes, he noticed many beings staring at him.

Ou Yangming tensed up a little and thought, ‘Did everything I see somehow spread and became visible to everyone? If that’s the case, it won’t be surprising even if there’s a bigger sensation.’

Despite that, he got rid of the thought in an instant.

This was because Bear Li’s violent voice could be heard. “Master Ou, look, quickly look…”

Ou Yangming looked in the direction the spirit bear was pointing in, and his eyes could not help but lit up. He finally understood why it was so agitated, as well as the reason everyone else almost forgot themselves.

Outside the Big Mountain-guarding Formation, the initially dense poisonous fog became tremendously light. Given the intensity, it was nothing compared to the poisonous gases released by the top-grade spirit lizards, let alone the ones released from the Poison Formation in the very beginning.

Not to mention that the Big Mountain-guarding Formation had already been strengthened, even if nothing was changed, it would not be affected at all at this time.

Ou Yangming turned to look at Yuqi the Venerable One, who was at the top of the mountain, but the formidable Venerable One was staring at him with a complicated look in his eyes.

Perhaps the Venerable One’s strange move was the exact reason everyone else was reacting so strongly.

“Master Ou, what… Exactly is going on?” Immortal Fox was hesitant for a while before it finally asked.

It dared not ask Yuqi the Venerable One, but it would be fine for it to ask Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming flashed a smile and responded, “It’s nothing—the poisonous gases were just sucked away, so don’t worry.”

“Sucked away?” Immortal Fox was slightly stunned, and it had a weird look on its face. “Are you saying that the poisonous gases, which have the essences of the 3 insect races and their respective Venerable Ones, were… Sucked away by something?”

‘Given how intense the poisonous gases were, they could erode even the Beast King Sect’s Big Mountain-guarding Formation. How could you say that they were sucked away? What exactly is it that could absorb poisonous gases of such a scale?’
