Chapter 210 - Devouring A Supreme Great Ancestor



Chapter 210 Devouring A Supreme Great Ancestor

Cheng Bingyu groaned in pain and fell to the ground as he could not move anymore.

The big yellow dog was merciless when he bit and swung Cheng Bingyu’s arm with its sharp teeth, causing the elder’s arm to be completely crippled.

As Ou Yangming and the big yellow dog joined hands, the nearly exhausted Supreme Great Ancestor was finally taken down.

Cheng Bingyu squirmed his body and instantly felt the unbearable pain. He smiled miserably because he knew he could no longer escape. “You won’t end well!” Cheng Bingyu uttered with his dying breath as he glared at Ou Yangming and the big yellow dog. Right after he cursed, his breathing became weaker until he stopped breathing. Ou Yangming and the big yellow dog were regretful when they looked at each other.

They cooperated well earlier, and they intended to capture the Extreme Grade powerhouse alive. Who knew, Cheng Bingyu had such a tough temperament that he decided to give up his life knowing that he would be doomed.

Ou Yangming sighed and shook his head at the corpse.

Since Cheng Bingyu asked about the Fire-absorbing Badge, the treasure had to be related to him. Ou Yangming initially wanted to get to the bottom of it, but it was impossible for him to do that now.

A peculiar light was seen on the tip of Ou Yangming’s spear while no blood was seen flowing out from the elder’s shoulder blade because it was absorbed by the Devouring attribute. Nonetheless, Ou Yangming had thrown the spear forward earlier, so the enormous energy was being wasted given that nobody was holding it.

When the young fellow went forward to hold the spear handle, the mighty energy immediately gushed into his body. Ou Yangming looked like he was fully immersed in the process, but he quickly suppressed his facial expression. Back then, Ou Yangming had completely absorbed energy from Zhang Hanyu’s flesh and blood, but he did not understand the Devouring attribute. Now that he was aware of the attribute’s function, unless he hated someone to the bones, he would refrain from devouring a person’s flesh and blood.

Soon enough, Ou Yangming withdrew his spear.

It was at that moment Ou Yangming noticed through his consciousness an insignificant detail.

Cheng Bingyu’s remaining leg, which was still intact, moved a little.

If another person had noticed this, one would only think that it was a natural movement from the leg because the spear had just been pulled out.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming was still vigilant, and the thoroughly meticulous state alerted him right away.

He flew backward by using the tip of his toes, whereas the big yellow dog widened its eyes and charged forward.

Cheng Bingyu, whose breath of life had fully disappeared, suddenly opened his eyes and kicked Ou Yangming like a madman.

Despite that, the kick landed on the big yellow dog instead of Ou Yangming.

The big yellow dog was in pain, and its eyeballs protruded. Even though it had superb physicality and the protection from its full equipment set, it almost stopped breathing because of the kick.

Cheng Bingyu had just undergone a momentary recovery of consciousness before he died, and he gathered his greatest power in his life on the kick.

That said, the big yellow dog was the big yellow dog, after all. It forcefully blocked the kick, then it widened its large mouth to bite Cheng Bingyu’s throat. At the same time, the dog pressed its claw deep into the elder’s chest.

Cheng Bingyu had a hideous look on his face, and he kept quivering like he was suffering from malaria.

The elder was tremendously frightened. At his last gasp, he felt that not only his life and power were slipping away, but his soul was also disappearing in a terrifying way.

Although Cheng Bingyu could not understand everything, he was overwhelmed by fear, which was a natural feeling that he had as a powerhouse. This was definitely not how a normal person would die.

A final thought crossed his mind at that instant.

‘That legend… That earth-shattering legend, which is known to be the most fearsome…’

Following that, the elder’s consciousness completely sank.

It was worth noting that the energy in a Supreme Great Ancestor’s blood and flesh was substantial. Through the Devouring attributed, it flowed endlessly into the big yellow dog’s body.

The big yellow dog suffered a hard kick from Cheng Bingyu a while ago. Though it killed the elder in the end, its body bore a slight injury. However, as the nearly unbelievable amount of energy from the elder’s blood and flesh gushed into the big dog’s body, it fully recovered from its injury in a split second.

On top of that, the big yellow dog’s body expanded a bit. If its body was not confined by its armor, the change would have been visible to the naked eye.

Even so, an odd red color was faintly seen in the big yellow dog’s eyes, and it was hair-raising.

As Ou Yangming stood still, he looked rather afraid too.

He thought, ‘If I was slightly negligent just now, I would’ve suffered the kick instead.

‘If that was the case, the consequence would be unbearable.’

Seeing as Cheng Bingyu’s body was quickly disappearing in front of him, Ou Yangming felt a chill down his spine.

He did not feel anything when he normally used the Devouring attribute to absorb energy from a creature’s flesh and blood. This time, when he watched as an outsider and saw a human being devoured by the wicked power, the feeling of fear from the bottom of his heart was indescribable.

“Puff, puff…”

The big yellow dog breathed heavily, and its eyes were becoming redder. Ou Yangming inhaled deeply and released his Dantian Power at once, then he yelled, “Big Yellow!”

The big yellow dog was stunned, but the red in his eyes faded away. It shook his head as though he was also confused by his reaction earlier. Subsequently, the big dog stuck its tongue out and wagged its tail as it pounced on Ou Yangming.

A thud was heard as Ou Yangming was pushed to the ground. The bloody mouth was in his face, and the dog’s saliva splattered on his face along with some blood.

Ou Yangming did his best to struggle, but he soon realized that his little power was not worth mentioning as compared to the big yellow dog’s enormous power. As such, he could only glare at the big dog resentfully.

The big yellow dog cast a strange look at ou Yangming because the young fellow’s reaction was not what it had expected. It was startled when it noticed the blood on Ou Yangming’s face, then its eyes wandered about as if it was deep in thought.

Ou Yangming scoffed. “Why are you still being in a daze? Get off me now!”

The big yellow dog jumped like it got an electric shock, and it kept hopping around Ou Yangming to take credit and to fawn over him.

Ou Yangming got up and wiped the blood on his face; he was unbothered.

After experiencing many life-or-death battles, he became more courageous too.

He was not concerned when he was faced with fear between life or death, so he was not disgusted by the little blood too.

“Big Yellow, you… Seemed to have become heavier?” Ou Yangming asked the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog stuck out its tongue as if it was embarrassed.

A thought crossed Ou Yangming’s mind. “Is this fella asking me to reform its equipment

set?”

The big dog immediately shook happily; Ou Yangming did not know to laugh or to cry at its proud look.

Ou Yangming shook his head and turned around to walk toward where Cheng Bingyu disappeared from. Even though the elder’s body disappeared, his belongings remained. The young fellow’s eyes lit up when he searched the elder’s clothes.

He retrieved two Fire-absorbing Badges.

Sure enough, Zhang Yinli and his son had a Fire-absorbing Badge, hence Zhang Yinli’s master possessed the same treasure.

Ou Yangming frowned a little when he knocked on the badges. He simply withdrew the Devouring attribute when he encountered such an item in the past, but he did not pay attention to its material.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming gained nothing when he used his Military Fire.

The Fire-absorbing Badges did not belong to this world.

Apart from the badges, Ou Yangming found a few ceramic bottles, silver notes, and a few miscellaneous items. Among them, a necklace with a Physique +1 attribute caught his eye.

The other pieces of equipment that belonged to the elder might be valuable to ordinary Yin Grade martial artists, but Ou Yangming was not interested at all.

There were some pilled in the ceramic bottles, but Ou Yangming dared not judge them because he had zero knowledge in medicine, so he packed them up.

Being a Supreme Great Ancestor, Cheng Bingyu also carried silver notes that amounted to roughly 1 million taels of silver.

Ou Yangming did not value money anymore, but he was still shocked by the amount.

In actual fact, the elder initially possessed a few great items, but the sleeves and the treasure used to resist the Back Spear Thrust had been destroyed.

Once Ou Yangming was done sorting everything, he burned the garments and scattered items with his Military Fire. In a flash, the objects vanished in the fire, to the extent that no ashes remained.

In the past, Ou Yangming had to use the furnace’s fire to get rid of proof because he lacked strength, but the process became a piece of cake for him now.

Ou Yangming suddenly recalled something when he finished cleaning up the mess. He put down the big multicolored tiger’s carcass and said, “Big Yellow, I brought you a gift this time.” He paused and looked at the carcass with shiny eyes.

During his escape, which lasted for a day and a night, Ou Yangming had stabbed the carcass numerous times. Consequently, the big multicolored tiger’s dead body became half its original size. Nevertheless, Ou Yangming had advanced to the next class in martial arts because he kept absorbing and digesting the enormous power when he ran.

“Uhm, this is a half-spirit beast that I slaughtered in the dense forest; I purposely brought it here for you to try it,” Ou Yangming explained with guilt as he chuckled.

The big yellow dog opened its mouth and bared its teeth. However, it wrinkled its nose at the spur of the moment while Ou Yangming’s face changed at the same time. He uttered softly, “Equipment.”

Big Yellow immediately shook his body to remove the pieces of equipment, then it widened its mouth to swallow them.

As soon as the big yellow dog was down, a figure flew toward them and landed in front of them.
