Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 419
Advertisement
The day after, Ou Yangming brought over 10 people to Feiya County.
This time, they did not travel on horses because the horses would be scared to death upon seeing Multi-armed King Kong and would not move an inch even if they were whipped with lashes.
Therefore, Ou Yangming utilized his Military Fire to smith an enormous platform, which he settled on Multi-armed King Kong's shoulder and back. Everyone exclaimed at the sight of it because they could tell the young fellow had treated the giant spirit beast as a free mount.
Multi-armed King Kong would have slaughtered anyone else who did that, but it chose to tolerate it because Ou Yangming was the one who did it.
Once the platform was settled, Ou Yangming led three young ladies and a few of their core attendants up there. Although it was not their first time seeing Multi-armed King Kong, it was certainly their first time riding it.
Fortunately, Wu Hanning, Bai Shixue, and Ni Yinghong were all considered heroines. Whether they were afraid or not, at the very least, they maintained their composure.
Ou Yangming whistled as soon as everyone was on the platform. As such, Multi-armed King Kong instantly stood up and set out swiftly by taking big strides.
Countless people witnessed the scene from the top of the city walls, and they were deeply in awe.
After a long time, another convoy left the prefecture. There were only around 100 people in the convoy, but the convoy had by far one of the greatest combat powers among the Humans because everyone was a Supreme Great Ancestor.
Apart from the capital's great ancestors, about half of them were local great ancestors from the prefecture.
It was Ou Yangming's arrangement, and it was highly supported by the Supreme Great Ancestors from the prefecture. If it was not because sufficient powerhouses were needed to stay to protect the city, perhaps all of the great ancestors would have departed.
Even though the two groups went different ways, they brought along the hopes of the people. On the other hand, everyone left in the prefecture prayed that the disaster could be over as soon as possible.
※※※※
"Woosh, woosh, woosh…"
As the wind blew violently, Ou Yangming was forced to squint his eyes, lest anything get into it.
Multi-armed King Kong had eight arms but only two legs. Even so, its speed was nothing like Ou Yangming had ever seen.
Needless to say, the reason was closely related to the spirit beast's humongous body. Every step it took was equivalent to tens of steps taken by an ordinary human, thus even when it did not take extremely quick steps, its speed was unimaginable.

It was similar to how an ant was not actually crawling slowly, but a normal person could easily overtake an ant by walking at a normal speed.
A person's incredibly common speed was simply despairing for an ant.
At that moment, Multi-armed King Kong perfectly displayed its advantage in this aspect.
Ou Yangming sighed and retrieved some minerals from his interspatial bag. The minerals were not valuable but were ores that could be used to smith pieces of Fine Grade equipment. Nonetheless, they were quickly transformed by the young fellow's Military Fire into large steel plates.
The steel plates were then placed at the front of the platform, and they finally blocked the whistling wind. Nevertheless, the loud bangs on the plates due to the wind soon became another trouble.
Multi-armed King Kong glanced strangely at Ou Yangming as though it was trying to understand its master's problem.
It suggested, "Master, let me help."
The spirit beast opened its gigantic mouth and breathed, causing a wall-like airflow to appear on each of the platform's sides. The air flows established a system of their own, where they blocked the incoming wind.
Ou Yangming and the others exchanged glances as they were shocked. It turned out that a high-rank spirit beast's control over power was so amazing that it was beyond their imagination.
While it looked like a simple move, it was not easy to control the power skillfully, yet it was evident that Multi-armed King Kong was doing it with ease.
Not far away, a yellow figure followed closely behind them. It was the big yellow dog.
The fellow refused to get onto the platform no matter what, but it also seemed like Multi-armed King Kong was hostile toward it. As a result, Ou Yangming could only let the big yellow dog follow behind them. It was much smaller in size as compared to the giant spirit beast, but it was not slow at all.
Ou Yangming was heading toward Feiya County for the first time, but Her Royal Highness had many capable followers, who naturally knew the way and guided the spirit beast on the platform.
It took only several days before they arrived at a vast plain. Over here, hills were rarely seen because the area was mostly flat. Consequently, when something as massive as Multi-armed King Kong appeared, it stood out like a lamp in the dark and could not hide even if it wanted to.
As far as Ou Yangming could see, he vaguely noticed a bunch of tents in the distance.
There was probably a medium-scaled tribe over there, and the young fellow estimated that there were at least a thousand people.

All of a sudden, a fire beacon was shot up to the sky from the tribe. At the same time, the people there began to move, which was a sign that they had noticed Multi-armed King Kong.
Of course, as long as one was in one's right mind, one would not want to face such a gigantic creature.
Their only option was to escape.
Wu Hanning furrowed her beautiful eyebrows and ordered, "Go notify them and tell them not to panic."
Their objective was to subdue the raging spirit beast in Feiya County, not to create more disturbance.
"Yes," Wu Haohan responded to the princess then jumped off the platform. He stepped on many joints on Multi-armed King Kong's body to land safely on the ground.
Multi-armed King Kong twitched its face, and it also clenched its fists before it relaxed them.
'How dare a little ant jump on my body? You're insulting me…'
Having said that, when Multi-armed King Kong thought about Ou Yangming, who was supervising it on the platform, it decided not to make a fuss out of it.
'I'm a considerate being. Besides, the greater party ought not to remember a lowly man's faults!'
Just as Multi-armed King Kong was comforting itself, Wu Haohan had landed on the ground safely and made his way to the tents by using his body technique.
He could see the campsite when he rode the towering creature, but there was actually quite a distance to the place.
Just as Wu Haohan arrived outside the campsite, a furious shout was heard. "Who's there? Freeze!"
"Swoosh…"
A sharp arrow was shot, and it landed right in front of Ou Yangming.
The archer's skill was astounding as he aimed for the lead and made an exceptionally accurate shot.
Wu Haohan stood still but shook his head and wondered, 'This person's arrow art is astonishing but as spectacular as it is, it's useless against Multi-armed King Kong.'
It was worth noting that Fang Zhaoyang had meticulously prepared an archer's suit for the Humans' disaster, but it was useless against the high-rank spirit beast.
Moments later, Wu Haohan looked up and answered in a deep voice, "I'm Wu Haohan, a captain from the imperial palace. How should I address you?"
"The imperial palace?"
An exclaim was heard.
The imperial palace's captain would not seem much in the capital, but the captain would be carefully served by the people here.
"You claim you're from the imperial family, but where's your proof?" The same voice was heard, but the person spoke much more politely this time.
Wu Haohan grinned and replied to the person loudly, "Does anyone in the world have the guts to impersonate a member of the imperial family?"
It was quiet for some time before the person who spoke finally replied to him in a soft tone, "Captain Wu, may I ask why you're here? Does that… That big fella belong to the imperial family?"
The people from the campsite witnessed Wu Haohan jumping off the giant beast to get to them, which was also the exact reason they were not in disorder yet. If it was not Wu Haohan who had come but Multi-armed King Kong, the campsite would have been empty by now.
Wu Haohan answered with a smile, "That's Multi-armed King Kong, which is the spirit beast that descended to Changlong County and Linlang County but was subdued by the imperial family's brave warrior."
"Huh?"
"Subdued a spirit beast?"
Exclaims filled the air one after another.
Judging from Multi-armed King Kong's build, it perfectly depicted the definition of mightiness. Nobody would doubt that it was a spirit beast, whereas many people would roll their eyes and be suspicious if someone said it was not a spirit beast.
Before long, mad shouts were heard and echoed in the campsite.
"All hail the imperial family!"
"All hail the emperor!"
Wu Haohan twitched his mouth and mumbled, "It was the consort who conquered Multi-armed King Kong, so the imperial family has naturally been considered to have controlled it too. I didn't lie, I didn't lie…"
After a brief moment, everyone in the campsite let down their guard, then around 10 people escorted an elder to meet Wu Haohan.
"I'm Her Royal Highness's guard captain. The princess is right behind, so please be ready to have an audience with her," Wu Haohan immediately noted.
The elder was a Yang Grade powerhouse. His face changed as he expressed, "I'm Qi Yangsuo, it's my honor to meet Her Highness."
His voice spread far and wide on the plain, to the extent that Ou Yangming and the others heard him.
Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. "Your Highness, we can go over to inquire about some news."
Wu Hanning nodded. The news from the capital had to be taken with a pinch of salt because after all, it would not be as accurate as asking in person.
When Ou Yangming signaled Multi-armed King Kong, whether it was willing or not, it kneeled so that the others could get off the platform easily.
Far away, at the tents, the people shrieked again when they saw the humongous creature kneel obediently.
They revered the imperial family more than ever.

Fang is a simple cat. Fang likes napping in the sun. Fang does not like being called Chairman Meow. Fang likes his belly being scratched for precisely 17.329 seconds. Fang does not like being punted between dimensions. Fang likes hunting and killing defenseless wildlife. Fang does not like mysterious blue boxes that appear out of thin air.

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.
