Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 603

The Six-armed Giant Beast shook its body to shake off the green blood all over its body. Its fur seemed to have a wonderful power; although he had superficial wounds from the life-or-death fight against a powerful opponent earlier, by briefly shaking its body after the fight, its wounds closed and could not be seen anymore.

It took a step forward and squeezed Ghost Mo's debris hard with its large palm, where it retrieved a crystal-like, small, round ball.

Following that, the Six-armed Giant Beast turned around and walked straight toward Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming was taken aback, and he was secretly wary. The giant beast still carried an extremely fearsome aura, which vaguely seemed to be targeted at him.

'As far as I know, I never offended this fella before.'

The Six-armed Giant Beast arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye. It bowed at the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One, then it asked the young fellow, “Hey, how am I compared to it?”

Ou Yangming was stunned, so he asked in return, “What?”

“I meant—how am I as compared to King Kong?” The Six-armed Giant Beast widened its eyes.

After realizing what it was, Ou Yangming could not help but smile bitterly, “You're both powerhouses, so I don't know…”

“Hmph, didn't it seek refuge in you already?” The Six-armed Giant Beast scanned Ou Yangming from head to toe and remarked impolitely, “I honestly can't tell how capable you are that's worthy enough for it to follow you.”

A strange look could be seen in the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One's eyes. It did not question Ou Yangming closely, but it was rather curious too.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming simply spread out his hands and answered, “Perhaps King Kong and I are fated, so we ended up together.”

He naturally would not foolishly tell the truth.

The Six-armed Giant Beast scoffed angrily and tossed the inner core, which it had retrieved, to the spot in front of Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming's eyelids flickered. The inner core was retrieved from Ghost Mo's body. The spirit insect was not as humongous as the giant beast, but it was considered an enormous creature to humans. Therefore, its inner core was exceptionally large, so much so that it was taller than the young fellow.

The Six-armed Giant Beast stood straight and wielded its fists to strike its chest as it yelled, “When you see it, remember to tell it that I'm not weaker than it.” Before its voice died away, it had soared into the sky and darted into the distance. It vanished in a split second.

Ou Yangming looked at the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One in confusion as he did not know what exactly was going on.

Even though he did not know how exactly useful a top-grade spirit beast's inner core was, he did not need to think hard to know that it was far more valuable than ordinary items.

'But why did the Six-armed Giant Beast throw it to me just like that?'

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One had a faint smile on its face since just now as if it knew very well the reason the Six-armed Giant Beast acted like that.

“Hehe, it's a gift from it, so you should accept it,” the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One noted, “When you smith pieces of equipment, you could learn our innate abilities and convert them into Rune Spells… It's an incredibly rare ability, so you must treasure it!”

Ou Yangming was slightly dumbfounded. “Sir Venerable One, based on my understanding, most of the Humans' spells were learned through this way.”

The Venerable One nodded. “Indeed, but if blacksmiths want to obtain Rune Secret Techniques through this method, one must be closely a.s.sociated with a spirit beast and try to fathom it for several years, a decade, or even decades to be able to figure out some clues. Hehe, you learned them as though you're eating or sleeping. How many people from the past and present could do that?”

Ou Yangming flushed and thought, “I worked hard to sense the skills to gain the runes; it's not as easy as eating or sleeping…

'On second thought, it's unbelievable indeed that I'm able to acquire the runes so quickly.'

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One pointed at the ma.s.sive inner core and said, “Study this thing well, and you might gain something.”

Ou Yangming questioned after a moment of hesitation, “Venerable One, may I ask why Brother Six-armed gave this to me?”

The 10,000 Beast Venerable One sighed and explained, “Six-armed and King Kong are both my sons. The compet.i.tion between them is intense, such that they were always merciless whenever they met and exchanged blows. Even so, they cared for each other.” It looked deeply at Ou Yangming and added, “Six-armed gave this to you because he hopes that you'll treat King Kong well.”

“Senior, don't worry, I won't let it down.” Ou Yangming was moved. He glanced at the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One. It only had a pair of arms, but those from its bloodline had many arms, which was odd.

Nevertheless, he dared not casually ask the question. Even if he wanted to, he would ask King Kong in the future instead of enraging the Venerable One here.

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One turned around and walked into the distance. Its voice could be heard coming from afar. “Pack up and leave the mountain. This time, I'll make sure you'll be safe and sound…”

Ou Yangming bowed deeply in the direction that the Venerable One left, and he only stood up after it was out of his sight.

Following that, he turned around without any hesitation and focused on the inner core in front of him.

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One must have said what it did for a reason, hence Ou Yangming dared not delay the matter. He reached out his hands and placed them gently on the inner core.

Big Yellow widened its eyes and stared at the inner core. It was really drooling.

Despite that, Ou Yangming ignored it. Before it studied how he could benefit from the inner core, he would not allow Big Yellow to lay its hand on it.

He released his mental power and slowly explored the inner core.

After a brief moment, Ou Yangming realized that there was indeed something odd about the inner core. Ghost Mo was ripped into several pieces by the Six-armed Giant Beast. Its body was still twitching, but it was very much dead. Its inner core was somehow filled with a mysterious power, which was full of life as though it was not affected by the spirit insect's death.

As Ou Yangming sensed with his mental power, he noticed a unique frequency around the inner core. This was the energy released by the vitality.

If Ghost Mo was still alive, as bold as Ou Yangming was, he would not anyhow explore the inner core. Since the spirit insect was dead, he was not afraid at all.

His mental power slowly changed as he slowly adjusted his aura to match that frequency. After an unknown period, the frequency of his aura finally became the same as that around the inner core.

At that instant, Ou Yangming sensed his mental conception being absorbed into the inner core by a forceful suction. Having said that, the power had no ill intentions because the inner core was not controlled by a master anymore. Therefore, after finding a conscious power with the same frequency, it instantly went forward to contact the power and regarded the young fellow as Ghost Mo.

Inside the inner core, there was a wonderful yet peculiar world.

Ou Yangming explored with his mental conception for a brief moment and was surprised to find that the world was somewhat similar to a sea of consciousness.

There was a green ocean inside the world. It kept rippling as 3 runes undulated above it with the waves.

The young fellow's eyes lit up. He knew they were Ghost Mo's innate abilities. However, given that they appeared in this place in such an odd manner, it truly opened his eyes.

He watched quietly and sensed the changes as the runes rose and fell.

It was not easy, but it was 10 times easier than sensing spirit beasts' abilities to gather runes.

After being immersed in the world for an hour, Ou Yangming had grasped the runes' changes.

They were 3 Innate Runes. Once he mastered them, equivalent Skill Runes were formed in his sea of consciousness. Moreover, he even understood their functions through some images inside the inner core.

Poison-series runes.

The 3 runes were poison-series runes, which could gather the universe's spiritual power from the void and turn it into poisonous gas or liquid to be used against enemies.

Needless to say, if a special method was used to prepare poisonous liquid on pieces of equipment beforehand, the 3 runes could be used effectively where twice the effect could be yielded through half the effort.

Ou Yangming opened his eyes and was filled with immense joy.

He had encountered many powerhouses but whether they were human cultivators or spirit beasts, they never had poison-series runes. Now, not only did the 3 runes come from a top-grade spirit beast, but they also filled the blank of a certain series of runes, thus he was elated.

Ou Yangming withdrew his mental conception from the inner core, then he exhaled deeply and opened his eyes.

He immediately sensed a wet tongue about to lick him.

The young fellow tensed up and shouted right away, “Big Yellow, stop!”

Big Yellow stopped and wagged its tail. It cast a flattering look at him, and the eager look on its face expressed its desire clearly.

That said, Ou Yangming shook his head and explained, “Big Yellow, this inner core contains deadly poison, which is so intense that you won't be able to resist it. If you were to eat it, I'm afraid that you'll be poisoned to death at once.”

The big yellow dog was startled, then it lowered its head embarra.s.sedly.

It knew Ou Yangming would not lie to it like that. Since he said that it could not be eaten, it could not be eaten at all.

Ou Yangming sighed. He understood very well what Big Yellow was thinking. If he was in its place, he would not have reacted any better.

At the spur of the moment, a thought crossed his mind.

He hesitated for a while before he retrieved an item. It was a piece of aerolite.

The piece of aerolite contained his and Lil' Red's mental powers. Their mental powers were not weak at all, but they were far from being able to fill the entire aerolite.

At this moment, the energies inside the inner core seemed to be able to be converted into pure mental power.

Ou Yangming shook his wrist and stabbed his dagger deep into the inner core.
