Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 624

Familiar energy fluctuations appeared around Ou Yangming. It was the representation of one going through an interspatial boundary, and he was familiar with it because he had experienced it many times.

Entering the secret realm was equivalent to setting foot in a brand new place, where the view changed drastically too.

Ou Yangming looked around and got a good view of his surroundings.

They were also at the col at the moment, but they were at the end of it, where they could see a boundless plain if they looked into the distance. When Ou Yangming looked up and far, his heart skipped intensely as he somehow had the urge to advance, advance, and advance.

It was a feeling of recklessness like never before.

The young fellow's body and intuition were telling him to move forward into the plain as though something at the center of it was attracting him.

Despite the unbelievably strong urge, Ou Yangming took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the thought.

He smiled and asked Xia Zizhen, who was next to him, “Brother Xia, where should we go now?”

Xia Zizhen observed the distant place and replied to him, “We're quite lucky today; we didn't encounter any swarm of insects. Brother Ou, don't you want poisonous pills and spiritual herbs? Let's go over there to take a look first.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman chuckled and said, “Yes, there are countless poisonous pills there, but our abilities were limited previously, so we only managed to collect 5 of them before we were forced to retreat. Hehe, Brother Ou, if you're interested and can collect more of them, it'll be great.”

Ou Yangming was moved. It seemed like the place where the poisonous pills were at had a huge crisis, so much so that the 2 Spiritualists dared not go deeper to explore.

Xia Zizhen led the way again. He was not fast, but he constantly watched his surroundings carefully as he advanced. The fact that he was on guard against all possible dangers made Ou Yangming feel rather nervous too.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman walked beside Ou Yangming. Seeing as the young fellow was frowning, he immediately explained, “Brother Ou, there are many treasures here, but it's also extremely dangerous.” He lowered his voice and added, “In particular, those little insects are very despicable.”

He had a look of fear in his eyes as he spoke.

It was evident that the little insects left an incredibly deep impression on him.

All of a sudden, Xia Zizhen stopped and had a grave look on his face. “I can sense trouble ahead. How about we take a detour?”

Ou Yangming was slightly stunned. He had been following behind without expressing any opinions, but it was because the direction where Xia Zizhen was heading in was the same as where the power was calling him from. As such, he felt like there was no need to take a detour as he could arrive at the destination by advancing courageously.

Nevertheless, he fell silent after he looked at the 2 men.

The 2 men were experienced, after all. Given that there was no significant change in the general direction, it would be better for Ou Yangming to accept their suggestion.

As for the strong calling, Ou Yangming was steady enough to endure it at the moment.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman responded without any hesitation, “Okay, let's go around it.”

Big Yellow suddenly twitched his nose after they walked more than 5 kilometers away. “This is odd—what's that smelly? It smells like something delicious…”

Fat Antelope and the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard twitched their noses hard and drooled as well.

Ou Yangming, Xia Zizhen, and Poisonous Saber Gentleman looked at each other. They sniffed the air for some time but did not pick up anything.

Struck with a thought, Ou Yangming asked, “Brother Xia, you're a disciple from the Beast King Sect, so you have a spirit beast, don't you?”

Xia Zizhen looked gloomy as he answered, “Brother Ou, I did have a spirit beast as my partner, but it died saving me the last time we came here.”

Ou Yangming opened his mouth and apologized with a bitter smile, “I'm sorry.”

Xia Zizhen waved his hand. “It's fine. Cultivators like us need to take risks to move forward bravely. It only left sooner than I did, and I'll likely reunite with it this time.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman turned around and rebuked him, “Zizhen, what nonsense are you talking about? Hmph, it definitely wouldn't want you to fall like that, or why would it have sacrificed itself to save you?”

Ou Yangming nodded in agreement. “That's right. Brother Xia, you must pull yourself together.”

Xia Zizhen forced a smile and curbed his thoughts, then he said, “We didn't come here the last time, so we don't know what's nearby. That said, it seems like this thing only affects spirit beasts.”

The plain was vast. Not to mention coming here once, even if one stayed here for a year or more, one would not be able to set foot on every spot.

Ou Yangming suggested after some thought, “No matter what it is, since we're here, we ought to take a look.”

Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman nodded one after another. They were honestly curious about what exactly could tempt Big Yellow and the other spirit beasts to forget themselves.

“Big Yellow, lead the way!” Ou Yangming exhorted the yellow dog, “Be careful and don't run too fast.”

“Okay.” Big Yellow's eyes lit up right away, then it dashed to the side.

Fat Antelope and the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard did not show a weak impression at all. They could not be bothered about Ou Yangming anymore, and they simply followed Big Yellow. Even so, they were rational enough to not overtake the big yellow dog. This was because they knew that the seemingly useless dog with an exceptionally low combat power was far more important to the young fellow than they were.

If they did not want to enrage Ou Yangming, it would be best for them to treat the d.a.m.n dog with enough respect.

Ou Yangming and the 2 men smiled bitterly at each other. They followed behind the spirit beasts, but they were more alert as they kept scanning their surroundings with bright eyes.

Big Yellow stopped only after half an hour. It stared at a slope ahead, and it could not help but drool.

The 3 men behind exchanged glances and were shocked.

What was it? If it was a certain smell, it would be unbelievable that it could spread so far away.

Big Yellow did not go all-out because it was Ou Yangming's order, but how far could it go if it ran for an hour?

The 3 human cultivators had chills upon having that thought.

On the contrary, Big Yellow and the 2 other spirit beasts were completely attracted by the scent, to the extent that they could not be bothered about the unusual phenomenon.

Ou Yangming flashed toward Big Yellow and pressed its head with his hand. “Big Yellow, don't act rashly!”

Big Yellow barked at him as it was displeased.

The young fellow instantly turned around to glare at the big yellow, which shrunk its neck at once and dared not make another sound anymore. It still longed for the slope in front, but it no longer barked without restraint.

As for Fat Antelope and the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard, they were clearly steadier than Big Yellow. Moreover, they knew they could not compare with the yellow dog in terms of their importance toward Ou Yangming.

Big Yellow would only be lectured a bit if it barked at Ou Yangming, whereas Fat Antelope and the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard would likely be kicked out if they acted so presumptuously. If the young fellow wanted to prevent the secret realm from being exposed, they might even be killed here too.

Therefore, Fat Antelope and the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard held back their desires after looking at each other. Furthermore, then cast looks of envy at Big Yellow.

Ou Yangming looked in front with dazzling eyes. He released his remarkable mental power and probed the suspicious slope bit by bit.

Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman were well-prepared with their weapons. Regardless if they had been lured to a trap, they were ready for combat at any time.

Who knew, Ou Yangming made an expression of surprise after a brief moment. He waved at the 2 men and noted, “Don't panic, this is probably a grave.”

“What? A grave?” Xia Zizhen was in disbelief.

Ou Yangming nodded and went forward to wave his hands continuously. As he moved, the tall slope was quickly dug, then a giant coffin was soon revealed.

The coffin was made from an unknown material; it was buried underground for countless years, but it still looked as shiny as new as if it had just been lowered to the ground.

Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman looked at each other, and their faces changed as they became dubious.

'Could someone have found this secret realm already? If not, what's with this brand new coffin?'

Seeing as they panicked, Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “Don't worry, there's no corpse inside the coffin, or I wouldn't have taken it out. Besides, it was buried underground for at least… Heh, I'm not sure how long, but it has been at least a few centuries.”

Xia Zizhen was dumbfounded, and he asked in shock, “Brother Ou, how do you know?”

Ou Yangming smiled mysteriously. “By looking at it, of course.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman and Xia Zizhen were startled for some time. They had notable visions but could not spot anything, so they could only smile bitterly. Even though casters did things strangely, it was undeniable that they had unreachable abilities.

Having said that, they did not know that Ou Yangming did not get his answer by looking, but he perceived the truth through his mental power.

In any case, Ou Yangming was also confused. 'Why wasn't this peculiar coffin able to stop my mental power?'

He vaguely felt that it was due to the merging of his Military Fire and mental power.

By tapping the coffin gently with his palm, it was opened at once.

As everyone looked inside, Xia Zizhen exclaimed, “Concentric Knots?”
