Dao of the Bizarre Immortal

Chapter 759 - Being

Li Huowang stared at the Shimmer Mirror. He thought he was seeing things wrong because of his pounding headache.

The red dot representing the soldiers in formation had indeed been bitten by something!

“Impossible! I just interrupted the ritual!” Li Huowang looked at the motionless statue and then at the dead chicken-feet men lying in the pools of blood.

Li Huowang snarled as he touched the glowing red dot on the Shimmer Mirror. He needed to know what was happening.

His vision changed, and he found himself riding a warhorse and galloping away from the battlefield.

He turned around and saw an incomprehensible sight. The soldier’s massive formation was fighting against an invisible being.

Even though it was invisible, it was still clearly present. Every time it moved, the space around it distorted and sank.

By staring at the distorted space, Li Huowang saw that the being had four legs. It was both enormous and flat, with several ribbon-like objects floating around its body in the air.

Other than that, Li Huowang couldn’t make out any more details.

“What is that? What the fuck is that?” He gritted his teeth so hard that they cracked. No matter what it was, the Dharma Sect had successfully summoned that being down into the mortal realm. It appeared that they had a backup ritual somewhere else.

Even if they stopped the ritual here, the Dharma Sect’s other ritual had succeeded.

Taishan Shi’s memory was faulty to begin with! Regardless of whether the Dharma Sect had intentionally kept him in the dark or if this was part of their trap, the situation had taken a turn for the worse.

Li Huowang snapped himself out of the Shimmer Mirror. “Go! Go towards the southwest and help them!”

Zhao Jiabao and the others wasted no time and immediately moved. They quickly charged towards the southwestern part of the frontline.

Li Huowang also prepared to follow them. His head was hurting, but he decided to go too.

He had to go. Otherwise, the invisible being would kill the soldiers. By then, the entire Liang Kingdom would be a sitting duck for the Dharma Sect to invade.

“I need to go! Faster!” Li Huowang held onto his head as he shouted.

Splurt! A sharp halberd pierced through his chest. Peng Longteng swung the halberd, forcefully launching Li Huowang high into the southwestern direction. Her immense strength made it possible for her to throw Li Huowang way past the city wall’s height.

The rain and wind were still intense. Li Huowang couldn’t open his eyes as he flew in the air. He could only determine his direction after landing and using the Shimmer Mirror.

Li Huowang wasn’t sure how far he had flown or how many times he was thrown, but he knew he had reached his destination when the cold air high in the sky froze his charred body. He saw that he was directly above the red dot.

“It’s here!” Li Huowang retracted his limbs and fell downwards.

He fell through the clouds and saw the being directly. It sat still in the middle of the crater-filled battleground.

It looked like a toad but was even more deformed than one. It resembled the statue in the wooden city, but there were also some differences.

Its body was shifting slightly. Somehow, its previously invisible body was now crawling with wriggling steel and flesh.

Li Huowang only realized what it was after he heard war cries—it was the soldiers! The soldiers were using their bodies to latch onto the being like ants!

The being suddenly shouted, its voice a mix of a wolf and a tiger. It shook off the soldiers from its body, causing them to rain down

The soldiers retreated slightly, and the being returned to its original form. It was distorting the space around it, but its body was still transparent.

The soldiers’ attacks appeared ineffective, or maybe they worked, but the being’s blood was also invisible.

The soldiers that had fallen regrouped, yet Li Huowang visibly saw their strength diminishing.

“Xuan Pin! Xuan Pin! I don’t know where you are, but you better show yourself now! There’s a huge problem here! Don’t tell me you don’t see that massive fucking being! Don’t tell me you don’t have any backup plans for something like this, you sly old fox! The Dharma Sect actually managed to summon the being, so stop hiding your secrets!”

Li Huowang’s voice echoed across the battlefield, but there was no answer. It was as if Xuan Pin didn’t care about what was happening.

Li Huowang was angry but somehow he had a feeling that something like this was going to happen. He then slowly approached the being.

“Xuan Pin, if I get back alive, you better clench your teeth!”

Li Huowang howled and Peng Longteng materialized. She hooked Li Huowang’s shoulder with her halberd, and they both charged into the battlefield.

But the being was so massive that they underestimated their distance. Li Huowang ran on horseback for more than fifteen minutes before he reached the proximity of the being.

He only sensed how strong the being was when he got close. A strange feeling was bubbling from the being’s body, assimilating everything around it.

It was the feeling of barbarity and ambition.

Even though Xuan Pin said it wasn’t a Siming, Li Huowang thought it was already close to one. Only Simings had the power to assimilate their surroundings into themselves.

The sound of a horrifying creaking reverberated as the being crunched on the soldiers. A lot of them were smashed into a pulp of flesh and blood as they rained down.

Once again, the soldiers latched onto the being’s body as they attacked with their weapons, but none of them did any sizable damage.

It was as if the being was impervious to the weapons.

“What should I do?” Li Huowang didn’t know what to do against such a being, but he needed to conjure someone since the soldiers were dropping like flies. “Fuck! I have to try it no matter what.”

Li Huowang gripped the spine sword, but the pain in his head had yet to recede. He placed the spine sword back onto his back.

“No, I can’t conjure another Zhuge Yuan right now. I need someone else.”
