Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 825: Red Thunderbolt

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The northern winds blew the falling snow everywhere!

When the old macaque’s grey clothes were blown, it trembled and opened its mouth, revealing its white teeth. After swallowing 2 mouthfuls of the cold wind, it asked in shock, “10,000 Beasts, have you seen this before? It’s recorded in ancient scrolls that the other Heavenly Disaster is thunderbolts falling like rain. Why is there a change?” The macaque’s cheeks were covered in frost. It lifted its arms to get rid of the accumulated snow on its grey clothes, then it pondered seriously but was still clueless.

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One looked like it was trying to recall something, then it sighed and noted, “I’ve never heard of it before, but I saw from a remaining part of a scroll that the disaster will show an anomaly before the sixth thunderbolt while the thunderbolts accumulate power. I wonder if it’s true or not. Even so, the fact that the rain-like thunderbolts produced a light ball that flickered into electric arcs...”

Its face darkened as it could not figure this out. It vaguely had a bad feeling about this.

Ou Yangming stood next to the 3 ladies. He blew hot air into his hands and rubbed them together, then he looked at the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One and asked curiously, “What’s an anomaly?”

The 3 ladies were intrigued as well, so they pricked up their ears and listened seriously as they were afraid of missing anything. Ever since they entered the Spiritual Realm, it seemed like a door to a new world had been opened for them, where their previous views of the world were crushed into power.

“I have no idea either as I’ve never seen it before. After all, it’s extremely rare for anyone to trigger 6 Heavenly Thunderbolts. Danzhou is only a small plot of land, and we don’t have such a powerhouse here.”

“Clack, clack...”

At this moment, a sound could be heard coming from the surging cloud layers.

It was not loud and could be considered incredibly soft, but it could penetrate one’s body into one’s soul. It was as though cold air was formed at the top of one’s skull, then it spread to every corner inside one’s body.

Ou Yangming’ felt a “thud” in his head. When he looked up, he noticed that a dark red color had somehow appeared on the thunder clouds. It looked like the color of blood that had been dried not long ago, and it interlaced with the purest black color to present an indescribably odd color. The color extended everywhere and finally outlined an amiable-looking figure on the clouds. The figure had loose eyebrows and wide earlobes but the strange part was that his eyes were tightly shut! It seemed like he could devour everything if he opened his eyes...

Everyone’s face changed when they saw the abnormal scene.

The old macaque felt like its head was buzzing, and it dared not look up. Soon enough, it inhaled and asked, “The Heart-tempering Disaster?”

At this time, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One happened to look at the old macaque. It sighed and stated, “The Heart-tempering Disaster should’ve been the fourth disaster, but its color doesn’t seem right as well. Besides, why is a figure being outlined? This is messed up—this is completely messed up... What exactly is happening?”

It looked dazed while it murmured.

The old macaque lifted its right hand to tap its shoulder and sighed. “Don’t worry, the Earthly Formation Boards withstood 2 of the thunderbolts, and King Kong’s strength hasn’t been affected at all. Moreover, its Thunderbolt-resistant Suit can absorb 70% of the Heavenly Disaster’s power, so there won’t be a problem.”

Nonetheless, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One furrowed its eyebrows. “But the Heart-tempering Disaster questions one’s heart and one’s persistence toward the path.”

The old macaque exhaled white mist. Its throat moved, but it did not say a word.

Ou Yangming clenched his fists, which made screeching sounds. He shouted internally, ‘Multi-armed, you must succeed.’

Underneath the Heavenly Disaster, Multi-armed King Kong’s body kept clashing with the coercion that descended from the sky, causing thunderous sounds to be heard. It seemed like it had entered a thunder pool, where its body’s impurities were constantly being removed.

It exhaled white mist, and a mad look was already spreading from deep inside its eyes.

At the spur of the moment, a roar was heard coming from the sky. Nobody could tell what it was, but it sounded like their souls were going to be stirred up. Concurrently, the Heavenly Disaster’s pressure was growing at an unbelievable speed. When an invisible storm spread and distorted everything around it, Multi-armed King Kong quivered and almost collapsed to the ground.

The roar carried a monstrous resentment.

It resented Heaven, Earth, and the people. When it exploded, it seemed like it wanted to make every living thing surrender to it.

The red light Multi-armed King Kong’s shone as it roared, “Get lost...”

While its voice circled round, the pressure on it became stronger as if it was going to bend its spine and crush its body.

Under the coercion, the king kong’s mountainous body expanded.

“Mie...”

All of a sudden, the weird-colored figure opened his lips slightly and exhaled, letting out a queer soundwave that sounded neither like a human nor a beast.

The snowflakes in the sky were falling faster than before. From far to near, they resonated with the peculiar sound, making it seem like the universe was wailing.

When the figure made the bizarre sound, the soundwave stirred up the snowflakes in the sky, then it tried to devour Multi-armed King Kong like a ferocious beast that widened its mouth to prey on a specific target.

“Mie!” This was the only sound that Multi-armed King Kong could hear at the moment.

Fear, panic, despair... All sorts of illusions appeared in front of it, causing it to be at a loss and stupefied.

Who knew, a weak tongue of flame suddenly lit up inside its heart and swayed in the wind.

The flame was actually planted when Multi-armed King Kong established a contract with Ou Yangming in the lower realm. A single spark could start a prairie fire—the blood inside the king kong’s body surged. As it focused, the illusions in front of it shattered. Its fur stood up on its ends, and its body expanded as if it was going to blot out the sky. At last, the king kong shouted at the sky, “Get lost, I won’t bend over nor will I lower my head. My spine will never bend as I want to become a Venerable One!” This was Multi-armed King Kong, which looked simple and honest but had its persistence.

What was a powerhouse? A powerhouse was known for one’s powerful heart.

The sound rumbled in Multi-armed King Kong’s head and became the only one. After some time, it calmly got through the Heart-tempering Disaster.

It was worth noting that the Heart-tempering Disaster tempered one’s heart and questioned one’s path. The stronger one’s mind, the easier it would be for one to conquer it.

The old macaque rolled up its sleeves and beamed. “It passed the Heart-tempering DIsaster!”

On the other hand, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One smiled but lamented after that, “Back when I was going through the Heart-tempering Disaster, I fell into illusions but wasted a long time to force my way out of them. I’ve never seen anyone using such a short time as Multi-armed did.” As much as it tried to hide it, a proud look could still be seen on its face.

“It’s truly enviable that you have such a son,” the old macaque remarked sincerely.

Ou Yangming looked up and wondered as he was confused. “This is odd—why hasn’t the strange figure disappear?”

Without warning, an untypical change occurred!

The figure, which was outlined by an eccentric color, suddenly opened his right eye. What kind of eye was it? It was calm and indifferent like a bottomless cold pond, where it did not show even the slightest negative emotion or feeling. Nevertheless, his eye was bloodshot as though red blood was flowing inside. The figure’s kind smile but the red and cold eye—all of this gave off a cold intent that could not be put into words. As such, everyone shuddered and was getting goosebumps.

When the figure pushed his right hand down, the winds flowed in reverse in the sky, and the color of the sky changed drastically. A thunderbolt as wide as a big bowl struck toward Multi-armed King Kong while stirring up the snow and crying cold winds in its way.

Despite that, Multi-armed King Kong was not afraid, and a ruthless look could be seen in its eyes.

Its enormous body leaped into the air, then the tadpole-like runes on its Thunderbolt-resistant Suit danced.

Following that, Multi-armed King Kong lifted its right hand and squeezed the bowl-sized thunderbolt hard until it was crushed. Electric arcs flickered on its suit and left a tiny mark on it. The amiable-looking figure seemed to have been infuriated, hence thunderbolts began to pour down like water being splashed down. They were dense and rapid like pear flowers being hit by a storm, but the Thunderbolt-resistant suit could absorb 70% of their powers. Furthermore, the king kong was exceptionally overbearing, thus only a slight mark was left on its suit.

The old macaque and the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One looked at the sky in high spirits and smiled.

Afterward, they laughed together and uttered, “It passed the fourth Heavenly Thunderbolt!”

With that, the tense atmosphere among the people loosened significantly...

For the fifth Heavenly Thunderbolt, Multi-armed King Kong faced it rampantly by carrying the momentum of a long river as if a furious dragon was stirring up a river. It crushed the thunderbolt unreasonably, leaving another notch on the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit due to the collision.

The old macaque’s grey clothes fluttered in the wind while it exhaled white mist and expressed, “10,000 Beasts, congratulations. Given that Multi-armed conquered 5 Heavenly Thunderbolts, it’s evident how potential it will be in the future.”

“It’s the Earthly Formation Boards and Thunderbolt-resistant Suit that were refined by Master Ou that worked like magic.” The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One sighed a breath of relief too.

Ou Yangming’s throat moved as he was about to speak.

Who knew, the thunderstorm in the sky surged with a red light. A drop of blood could be seen coming out of the figure’s right eye, and he widened his left eye as well. Subsequently, the earth was covered in red, and a spiritual power could clearly be seen flowing around the figure. A distorting power appeared out of the blue, then a bright moon rose while a mountain river flower below it. Majestic mountains were higher than one another, and they were surrounded by lake water with lotus flowers blooming on them...

“An anomaly—this is an anomaly that’s triggered before the sixth Heavenly Thunderbolt!” The old macaque breathed heavily and was deeply moved.

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One was glad, but it was also worried and had a complicated feeling about this.

Before long, the thunderbolt in the sky became bigger and lower like a black pot that was going to cover the ground.

It was at this moment the kind figure instantly melted and turned into a red thunderbolt.

The universe fell silent, so much so that the crying northern winds stopped as well.

“Boom!”

The red thunderbolt ripped the sky and revealed fearsome darkness.

It blasted down from the sky, where it turned into a red-scaled dragon that was very much alive and exceedingly fast.

The Heavenly Disaster’s power was inevitable and unavoidable. It could only be confronted head-on.

Multi-armed King Kong smirked and cried into the air. It channeled all of its spiritual Qi into the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit. Accordingly, the veined patterns that were imprinted on the suit connected and became inseparable from the king kong’s body. They emitted an intense white light and clashed with the thunderbolt like a startled bird.

The thunderbolt attacked from above to the bottom, whereas Multi-armed King Kong faced it from the bottom to the top.

“Boom...”

An indescribable storm swept the ground. Even the space around it wrinkled and rippled.

Multi-armed King Kong activated its power to an extreme. A red light flickered in its eyes as it roared, “Shatter!”

The dancing runes on its Thunderbolt-resistant Suit and the Heavenly Thunderbolt crumbled at the same time...
