Free Web NovelChapter 623: Chapter 621: Compete in Devouring? I’m Your Ancestor
"I didn’t expect the two of them not to start fighting."
"I’m afraid Xiao Ming isn’t confident enough to suppress Xu Yang completely. Xu Yang’s collision with Gou Mu earlier—his will was astounding."
"Monsters, both of them!"
"There’s still a show to watch, just a pity for the Jun Family."
...
Xue Ming, Shi Hu and the others glanced over, without a hint of worry.
Even if Xu Yang loses, it’s no big deal.
It’s just a hundred streams of Immortal Qi and three Immortal Elixirs anyway.
This Beili Immortal Mountain is vast beyond measure. Anyone who’s made it this far has at least a few hundred streams of Immortal Qi and seven or eight Immortal Elixirs on them, right?
Xu Yang climbed swiftly.
The oppressive force kept intensifying.
He advanced while absorbing the refined energy within his cauldron.
Relying only on this advantage, Xiao Ming is no match for him.
Xiao Ming kept close behind. After about half a quarter of an hour, he suddenly accelerated and overtook Xu Yang in one movement.
"Xu Yang, starting fast doesn’t mean you’ll stay fast all the way."
Xiao Ming mocked, looking back before quickly turning around.
Once he turned, his face grew solemn.
The oppressive feeling here was already extremely powerful.
At this rate, in less than half a quarter hour, they’d be unable to move an inch!
However, he now possessed plenty of Immortal Qi and Immortal Elixirs.
All he needs is to surpass Xu Yang.
Xu Yang slightly raised his eyebrows; Xiao Ming’s strength was a bit unexpected.
"My will is stronger than his, but as for Immortal Seeds, I’m afraid not by much."
"But I’m in no hurry. As time goes on, my advantage will only grow!"
A cup of tea’s time passed.
The two trudged forward like old men, struggling with every step.
Every step bore immense pressure, their bodies trembling.
The distance between Xu Yang and Xiao Ming was less than ten feet—just two or three steps would put them side by side.
Boom!
Xiao Ming’s aura suddenly surged, Immortal light blazing from him as he strode ahead several paces, only slowing after seven or eight steps.
"Xu Yang, don’t force yourself. If you get hurt, that won’t be good."
Xiao Ming looked back with a triumphant grin.
"Is that so?"
Xu Yang remained calm, his body pulsing with strength.
Boom!
In an instant, he shot forward like an arrow loosed from a bow, tearing through the pressure and dashing more than ten steps ahead, overtaking Xiao Ming.
"..."
Xiao Ming’s face darkened instantly. He buried his head and climbed in silence with all his might.
Just like that, climbing while cultivating, the two constantly overtook each other, pressing and pushing, now surging forward, then slowing down again.
These scenes made the onlookers below roll their eyes repeatedly.
It felt like kids playing house.
But for Xu Yang and Xiao Ming—the main characters—each moment was a provocation to the other, both stoking their competitive spirit.
Even Xu Yang was going all out, unwilling to be suppressed.
They might look like kids at play, but the results were remarkable!
At the mountaintop, majestic Immortal light blanketed all, flickering unpredictably.
As time passed, it gradually became visible to their eyes.
They could vaguely see a few figures sitting cross-legged at the edge.
No doubt, it was Can Sutian and other powerhouses.
Swoosh!
A figure flashed in like lightning from behind.
The startling commotion made both Xu Yang and Xiao Ming look his way.
It was actually Xue Ming.
"A top-grade Immortal Soldier, Celestial Human Realm!" Xiao Ming gasped in a low voice.
"Congratulations, Senior!" Xu Yang beamed with a brilliant smile.
Xue Ming laughed heartily, "Brats, I’ll go on ahead—I’ll wait for you up top!"
As they watched Xue Ming leave first, Xu Yang glanced at Xiao Ming, who responded with a cold snort and took wide strides upward.
Suddenly—
A bright gleam came into view.
On a steep slope ahead, corpses were scattered before them.
All around, immense pure Immortal Qi swirled like a lake.
And on the abdomens of two of the corpses, spots of Immortal light flashed!
"Two Immortal Seeds!"
"And the Immortal Qi here, it’s so thick it’s almost as good as Immortal Seeds!"
"If I get it, I’ll definitely break through to a top-grade Immortal Soldier!"
Xiao Ming was extremely excited.
"Don’t get happy yet."
Xu Yang licked his lips and sneered coldly.
Xiao Ming instantly calmed down; Xu Yang wasn’t about to let him have it so easily!
"Xu Yang, we still have our bet!"
"No fighting, whoever can devour more, it’s by their own ability—how about that?"
Xiao Ming stared at Xu Yang as he spoke.
"Are you sure?" Xu Yang was utterly baffled. Are you out of your mind?
"Of course!" Xiao Ming replied, full of confidence.
"Fine, as you wish!"
If they didn’t have to fight, Xu Yang was happy to oblige!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Both erupted at full power, shattering the oppressive force and hurtling into the region.
Immediately, they took positions left and right of the corpses.
"No one gets any closer!" Xiao Ming warned.
"Relax!"
"Whoever moves is a loser’s grandson!" Xu Yang sneered coldly.
Xiao Ming’s mouth twitched, then he gave a sudden cold snort.
The next moment—
He flicked his fingers into a seal and roared, "Kun Fish Devouring Profound!"
In the instant his shout dropped, countless Immortal-light spirit patterns covered Xiao Ming’s body, crisscrossing densely.
Roar!
With a deep bestial roar, the spirit patterns shifted, forming the spectral image of a massive Kun Fish enveloping him, mouth gaping wide to devour.
Boom!
The Periphery Void Space trembled, waves of Immortal Qi rushed over.
"Kun Fish..."
Xu Yang’s pupils contracted. He knew this monster: overlord of the seas, renowned for its terrifying devouring power.
No wonder Xiao Ming was so confident. With the Kun Fish Secret Skill—frankly, among top-tier powers, only a handful of devouring Divine Techniques can rival this.
Immortal Qi swirled madly everywhere, a vast torrent surging in.
The power of that devouring was truly frightening.
Still, Xu Yang was calm and relaxed. With a faint smile, he activated his Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill!
The Kun Fish Secret Technique was indeed formidable!
But Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill was the exclusive Secret Technique of the original Qian Emperor, and supposedly inherited from a top expert of the Spirit Realm’s ancient era.
Back then, it was said the Qian Emperor used it to swallow an entire Spirit River. How could a mere ’Kun Fish Secret Technique’ compare?
Rumble!
Thunder exploded in the space, startling Xiao Ming badly.
He turned his head instinctively—and immediately froze in shock!
He saw the immense Immortal Qi instantly split in half, one portion sweeping toward Xu Yang like a hurricane.
A fearsome devouring force swelled rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, the edges of Xu Yang’s share of Immortal Qi were splitting apart, forcibly seized away from Xiao Ming’s side.
"How is this possible?"
"My Kun Fish Secret Technique comes from pure Kun Fish blood, further perfected by my ancestor. Among all devouring Secret Techniques in the Spirit Realm, it ranks in the top three..."
Xiao Ming’s face dropped. He unleashed all he had, devouring frantically.
But Xu Yang’s devouring sucked power always stayed ahead of him.
As time went on, the torrent of Immortal Qi gradually tipped in Xu Yang’s favor!
"Damn it!"
Xiao Ming was shaking with rage.
He suddenly bit his lip, burning his blood essence.
Boom!
At last, he gained the upper hand for the first time.
Seizing back some Immortal Qi.
Xu Yang simply raised an eyebrow. Seeing Xiao Ming’s strained expression, he smiled faintly, "Is there any point?"
When it comes to devouring, he’s the forefather here!
As his words fell, Xu Yang’s will exploded forth, and the Heaven-Devouring Spirit-Eating Skill intensified again!
Rumble!
The portion Xiao Ming just snatched back was instantly taken from him, and more, too.
Pffft!
Xiao Ming spat a mouthful of blood from anger, face deathly pale.
"Xu Yang!"
His fists clenched, consumed by fury.
He simply couldn’t win!
At this rate, never mind the Immortal Qi, even those two Immortal Seeds—all would go to Xu Yang!
"What, can’t beat me so you want to fight now?"
Xu Yang sneered at Xiao Ming.
"Hmph!"
Xiao Ming snorted coldly, suppressing his anger, gritting his teeth, "I, Xiao Ming, can afford to lose!"
As he spoke, a fierce light burst from his eyes, the Kun Fish shadow twisted violently, broke free from his body, and lunged at Xu Yang with its blood-red maw wide open.
As for Xiao Ming himself, he vanished from where he stood in a flash.
"I can afford to lose, but I’m not a fool!"
"Two Immortal Seeds—I won’t just let you have them for nothing!"
