Chapter 746: Big GiftTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ou Yangming furrowed his eyebrows as the king kong made itself clear.
In the Spiritual Realm, Multi-armed King Kong could keep a low profile, hide from troubles, and refrain from using its powers. Nonetheless, it would still be tested by the Heavenly Thunderbolts when it would attempt to advance into a Venerable One after a year or two. In other words, if the king kong were to fight anyone before that, it might be struck by the Heavenly Thunderbolts soon.
It was almost an imminent situation for spirit beasts.
Multi-armed King Kong smiled. “Master, you don"t need to worry about me.”
Ou Yangming asked snappily, “I don"t need to worry? Are you confident about surviving the Thunderbolts Disaster?”
The king kong smiled brighter than before. “Master, since you"re here, what should I worry about?”
Ou Yangming was slightly stunned. He smiled bitterly and said, “Looks like I really need to smith an equipment set for you.”
Multi-armed King Kong immediately nodded as it beamed.
In actuality, it knew as long as Ou Yangming was alive, it would not need to worry about its Thunderbolt-resistant Suit when it advanced. Once it had that suit, it would be able to endure the disaster even with its eyes closed.
If the king kong still could not get through it with the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, it would not deserve to be the 10,000 Beasts Ridge"s pride.
The goshawk and Big Yellow were envious, but they did not feel bitter. They knew since the king kong would be given such a treatment, they would also have Ou Yangming"s help during their attempts to become Venerable Ones.
As Ou Yangming reached out his hand and waved, the flying carpet in mid-air fell onto his hand and disappeared.
The goshawk did not pay too much attention to the carpet, but Big Yellow and Multi-armed King Kong were bright-eyed and looked like they wished they could take it for themselves.
Ou Yangming grinned and asked, “King Kong, do you want a flying carpet?”
Multi-armed King Kong nodded without any hesitation. “Yes.”
It knew it did not need to be affectedly unconventional in front of Ou Yangming.
Who knew, Ou Yangming shook its head and responded, “Big Yellow can have one, but not you.”
“Why?” Multi-armed King Kong looked at Big Yellow in shock as it could not figure out how it could not compare with the little thing. As for the big yellow dog, it lifted its head arrogantly.
Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “King Kong, where am I going to find enough fur for a flying carpet that can accommodate you?”
Multi-armed King Kong was startled for some time. Its st.u.r.dy and enormous body had always been its pride, but it seemed to have become its shortcoming at this moment.
All of a sudden, Ou Yangming was moved. He lowered his head and turned to look.
Far away, 2 figures were seen walking on air as they fluttered toward him.
One of them was Yuqi the Venerable One while the other was a stranger.
Nevertheless, judging from how they looked like they were walking on flat ground, it was clear that they were both Venerable Ones.
Mao Jianbi controlled his flying carpet to approach Ou Yangming. He lowered his voice and said, “Master Ou, that"s Lingfeng the Venerable One from Mount Wuzhi.”
Ou Yangming nodded and stepped down gently. Multi-armed King Kong instantly understood him, hence it slowly lowered its hand to let him stand steadily on the ground. Following that, another 2 figures walked out from the courtyard. They were Wu Yuanwei and Hong Feiyu, who had entered the Spiritual Realm with the young fellow.
The 2 figures were rather excited when they saw Ou Yangming, but they also saw the 2 Venerable One at a distance away. Therefore, even if they had a lot to say, they held themselves back.
Ou Yangming smiled and gestured to them to hold their horses.
In any case, they finally met, so it would not hurt to wait a little longer.
The 2 Venerable Ones looked elegant and slow, but they arrived at the courtyard in the blink of an eye.
“Hehe, Master Ou, you"re finally back. It"s nice to meet you, it"s nice to meet you,” Lingfeng the Venerable One greeted Ou Yangming loudly from afar.
Yuqi the Venerable One sneered internally but remained calm on the outside. He nodded at the young fellow.
Ou Yangming bowed and replied to the Venerable One with a smile, “I"ve heard so much about you, Lingfeng the Venerable One. Sure enough, you have a well-deserved reputation.”
Lingfeng the Venerable One beamed. “That"s very nice of you, Master Ou, but you"re the one with great fame.”
While they flattered each other, Yuqi the Venerable One and Mao Jianbi thought, ‘They"re talking nonsense…"
Lingfeng the Venerable One swayed and landed steadily on the ground. He later turned his hand and retrieved an interspatial bag. “Master Ou, congratulations for making it into the Spiritual Realm. On behalf of Mount Wuzhi, this is your congratulatory gift, so kindly accept it.”
Yuqi the Venerable One was stunned. He raised his eyebrow a little and thought, ‘You cunning old fella…"
Back when he knew Ou Yangming, he knew the young fellow was not a simple figure, but the fellow was not yet the Phoenixes" messenger and was merely an Intermediate Spiritualist. Given Yuqi the Venerable One"s status, it was his limit to pay more attention to Ou Yangming, and he naturally would not shamelessly prepare a valuable gift for their first meeting.
Who knew, Lingfeng the Venerable One took out an interspatial bag as soon as he met the young fellow. n.o.body knew what treasure was contained inside.
Mount Wuzhi was indeed more well-prepared in this aspect.
It was no wonder Lingfeng the Venerable One did not want to leave and insisted on waiting for Ou Yangming even though he was left out; this was the real reason.
Ou Yangming was dumbfounded. He quickly said, “Lingfeng the Venerable One, I don"t deserve this.”
Lingfeng the Venerable kept a straight face and noted, “Master Ou, you"re the Phoenixes messenger. If even you don"t deserve this, n.o.body in the Spiritual Realm does.” He paused for a while before he added, “The gift was prepared by the people from Mount Wuzhi, so I hope you"ll like it.”
The young fellow hesitated for a while before he reached out to accept the gift. He subconsciously scanned it with his mental conception.
“Hey…”
Ou Yangming"s eyelids flickered. He suddenly looked up in shock.
Yuqi the Venerable One and Mao Jianbi thought, ‘Oh no, that gift must be extremely precious, or he won"t be so moved."
Indeed, Ou Yangming was only an Intermediate Spiritualist, but Yuqi the Venerable One and Mao Jianbi were aware of his abilities. If the gift inside the interspatial bag was normal, the young fellow would not have shown such an expression.
Ou Yangming fell silent for a brief moment before he uttered, “Lingfeng the Venerable One, this gift…”
“This is a congratulatory gift from Mount Wuzhi. If you"re happy with it, please accept it,” Lingfeng the Venerable One said without any hesitation. Based on what he said, as long as Ou Yangming was a normal person, he could not reject the gift anymore, or he would be embarra.s.sing Mount Wuzhi and become their enemy.
“I"d like to thank Mount Wuzhi for thinking highly of me then; I"ll be thick-faced and accept this gift,” Ou Yangming expressed after some thought. He continued after a short pause, “Lingfeng the Venerable One, given that you came all the way here, is there something else that you"d like to say?”
Lingfeng the Venerable One chuckled. “Master Ou, you"re a straightforward person.”
Ou Yangming tapped the interspatial bag in his hand and smiled bitterly. “If I"m not, this can"t be justified.”
The Venerable One could not help but laugh. ‘This young fella"s quite interesting. It"s something that can be tacitly understood, but he said it so openly."
Yuqi the Venerable One and Mao Jianbi exchanged glances. They were curious about what exactly was inside the interspatial bag that Ou Yangming liked so much.
Lingfeng the Venerable One asked pondering for a brief moment, “Master Ou, I heard that you"re the Phoenixes" messenger and possess the Heavenly Phoenix Fire?”
Ou Yangming nodded. “That"s right.”
It was no longer a secret, thus there was no need for him to hide it anymore.
Lingfeng the Venerable One"s eyes lit up. “Master Ou, I wonder if you"ve heard of a kind of pill.”
Ou Yangming was struck dumb. “Lingfeng the Venerable On, I"m only a blacksmith, not an alchemist.”
The Venerable One shook his head and looked at the young fellow with bright eyes. “This kind of pill can only be refined with the help of a Heavenly Phoenix Fire, and it"s a legendary holy medicine.”
Yuqi the Venerable One"s face took on a strange look. He suddenly questioned, “Brother Ling, are you talking about the Eternal Pill?”
“Yes, the Eternal Pill,” Lingfeng the Venerable One spoke seriously, “I"ve come to borrow Master Ou"s Heavenly Phoenix Fire to attempt to refine an Eternal Pill.”
Ou Yangming twitched his mouth. He looked at Yuqi the Venerable One, and they both did not know to cry or to laugh.
It turned out that the Eternal Pill had such a huge market, to the extent that a powerhouse from Mount Wuzhi had come all the way here.
Countless thoughts crossed Yuqi the Venerable One"s head. Without warning, his face changed as he asked, “Brother Ling, are you trying to get an Eternal Pill for… The elder?”
Lingfeng the Venerable One answered after a moment of hesitation, “Yes.”
Yuqi the Venerable One kept quiet for some time before he smiled bitterly and said, “I see—the elder"s still alive…”
At this point, even he did not know how he should feel.
Mount Wuzhi was the Humans" greatest sect in Danzhou because of their profoundness, but it also had something to do with an unparalleled and peerless powerhouse.
The only thing was that the powerhouse had been living in seclusion for a century, so n.o.body knew if he was still alive. Now that Lingfeng the Venerable One made such a request, it reminded Yuqi the Venerable One of that powerhouse.
Lingfeng the Venerable One said to Ou Yangming with a grave look on his face, “Master Ou, the Eternal Pill is incredibly important to Mount Wuzhi and the Humans in Danzhou. If you can help us refine the pill, we"ll let you access our sect"s library and read anything you want.”
His long stay in the Beast King Sect had not been fruitless. At the very least, he found out about the young fellow"s character and likes.
It was true that Mount Wuzhi"s library was the sect"s priority, but it was very inferior to the Eternal Pill.
Yuqi the Venerable One raised his eyebrows, but he sighed after some thought and did not say a word.
As said by Lingfeng the Venerable One, as long as the powerhouse was still alive, Mount Wuzhi"s place in Danzhou would be unshakable. However, similarly, the Humans would also be protected and on a large scale, the Beast King Sect would also be included.
Ou Yangming smiled bitterly. “Lingfeng the Venerable One, I don"t mind helping you but at the end of the day, I"m only a blacksmith, so I can only play a supporting role in this.”
Lingfeng the Venerable One"s eyes gleamed. He laughed out loud and said, “Everything will work out as long as you"re willing to help, Master Ou.”
