Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 652

Ores were melted by Ou Yangming's fire one after another and were gathered into formation boards.

Ou Yangming had gone through a lot of effort for the formation boards. He carved the essence that he apprehended from the Simulated Spiritual Fist on some of them, causing them to have marvelous effects of causing spiritual illusions. Apart from that, he also engraved the Dual Skill Technique that he learned on the other boards. Needless to say, what matched the second type of board was the poisonous pill's spirit—the centipede. Once the formation board was activated, the centipede would release its poisonous gas, causing living beings within the formation board's range to be secretly poisoned.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming had reached his limit by refining 2 different kinds of formation boards.

If he was given sufficient time, perhaps he could come up with more powerful formation boards by merging different Skill Runes in his spiritual world. Since the Insect's Twelve Walkers were keeping an eye out for him everywhere, he dared not delay more time.

The missing of 1 middle-rank lizard, 5 low-rank lizards, and Lu Zhenxie, would definitely catch the attention of other lizard powerhouses. Ou Yangming believed that unless he went far away, he would not have much time left.

Nevertheless, he was quite satisfied when he looked at the formation boards, which he had put a lot of effort into.

Being able to achieve this proved that what he learned from before was not pointless.

Ou Yangming kept the formation boards and pondered for some time, then he retrieved one of his Long Feather Bands. When he gently touched the feathers on it, peculiar energy was instantly released.

It was an extremely vigorous interspatial power. Once the power was curbed, a sleeping turtle appeared on the empty ground.

Big Yellow widened its eyes and jumped on the turtle's back, then it barked out loud.

“Woof, woof, woof…”

The big lazy turtle moved its neck and extended it lazily. Its hazy eyes became clearer after it saw Ou Yangming and Big Yellow, then it looked around and finally had a clear look at its surroundings.

This was an entirely strange place.

The lazy turtle nodded at Ou Yangming in confusion and asked, “Master Ou, did you summon me for something?”

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh when he looked at the big lazy turtle; its back was covered in spiritual flowers and herbs, which were mostly what he gained in the secret realm. Even so, the lazy turtle was indeed a rare species as the spiritual flowers and herbs released a magical energy fluctuation.

The power was not forceful, but there was an indescribable feeling to it.

It was worth noting that the lazy turtle's aura corresponded with the power very well. They merged and somehow complemented each other.

Sure enough, Ou Yangming made the right choice of entrusting the spiritual flowers and herbs to the lazy turtle. Even if the turtle never worked hard and was mostly sleeping, the flowers and herbs were born to match it well. As such, they somewhat fit G.o.d's will wonderfully.

“Lazy turtle, these spiritual flowers and herbs are generally favorable. Looks like I was right about handing them to you,” Ou Yangming remarked.

“Master Ou, don't worry, there's no mistake leaving these spiritual flowers and herbs with me,” the big lazy turtle responded proudly. It paused for a while and suddenly recalled something when it slowly came to its senses. “Master Ou, you previously sent so many spiritual flowers and herbs into the place. When are you doing it again?”

Ou Yangming was slightly stunned, and his face could not help but take on an odd expression.

'This big lazy turtle's very greedy.'

The secret realm belonged to the Wutong Tree, which was also a type of spiritual item. What more it had been alive for over 10,000 years.

No matter how Ou Yangming looked at it, leaving the spiritual flowers and herbs in the spiritual realm seemed to be better than giving them to the lazy turtle.

Having said that, the secret realm was ma.s.sive, and it had plenty of spiritual flowers and herbs inside. The Wutong Tree meant that it could only take care of the top-notch ones, whereas most of them would be left to self-destruct.

In that case, would it be a better choice to leave the substandard spiritual flowers and herbs with the lazy turtle?

Just as Ou Yangming was having a hard time deciding, Big Yellow barked again.

Ou Yangming was dumbfounded. He immediately curbed his thought and noted with a smile, “Lazy turtle, I have bad news for you.”

“What? Master Ou, we agreed that as long as I don't leave you, I'll nurture all of your spiritual flowers and herbs.” The big lazy turtle looked warily at Ou Yangming. It paused for a while as if it recalled something, then it said, “Oh right, Master Ou, these are for you.”

It extended one of its legs to present 3 jade bottles. “This bottle stores the concentrated immortal liquid. After collecting 1 drop every day, I've acc.u.mulated quite an amount. As for this one, I used it to store the normal immortal liquid. There's slightly more of this, so you can handle it as you wish.”

Ou Yangming's eyes lit up. He reached out to accept the jade bottles.

The young fellow opened them separately. He had used the normal immortal liquid many times, thus he knew its brilliant effects very well.

As for the concentrated immortal liquid, it was unordinary, As soon as Ou Yangming opened the jade bottle, he picked up a vague fragrance.

The fragrance seemed to be fainter than that of the normal immortal liquid, but Ou Yangming and Big Yellow felt like they were in paradise when they inhaled it.

They were shocked because they finally understood what the concentrated immortal liquid represented. It was so precious that it was probably 10 times more powerful than the normal immortal liquid.

At this point, even Ou Yangming was dubious.

'Did the Wutong Tree really become silly after living for several 10,000 years? Why would it let go of these magnificent spiritual herbs and flowers?

'On second thought, the boundless secret realm has countless queer flowers and herbs, so it seems normal for them to have small flaws.

After a moment of hesitation, Ou Yangming retrieved a drop of the concentrated immortal liquid. Seeing how eager Big Yellow looked, he shook his wrist and split the drop of liquid into 2. As he flicked his fingers, half of the immortal liquid entered the big yellow dog's large mouth.

Big Yellow clacked its tongue a few times, then its eyes gleamed right away. Its mouth kept moving as though the liquid left an endless aftertaste.

Ou Yangming tasted the other half drop of the concentrated liquid too. The immortal liquid melted in his mouth and flowed into his stomach at once. Despite that, instead of staying in his intestines, the liquid entered every cell in his body by flowing along his meridians. Upon receiving the power from the liquid, all of the young fellow's cells seemed to be cheering happily.

The young fellow was surprised yet overjoyed because he sensed the unparalleled surprise from the concentrated immortal liquid.

After being nourished by the liquid, all of his cells seemed to be undergoing a transformation.

Yes, the concentrated immortal liquid's power was similar to spring water, which kept cleansing his body. On the other hand, it was also akin to a blazing fire, which burned and refined his flesh.

This was an incredibly overbearing technique, but Ou Yangming gasped in admiration because his body was unharmed despite the concentrated immortal liquid's immense power and effect. It was as if the cleansing and the burning were gentle and would not hurt his body at all.

The sublime feeling slowly went away, but Ou Yangming and Big Yellow were still elated.

'Savior—a true savior…'

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow lamented at the same time.

Other than their hard work, they had only stand out among many living beings and came so far because of another factor, which was the Devouring attributes.

Their strengths advanced by leaps and bounds because they devoured the life forces of many powerhouses through their flesh and blood, allowing them to surpa.s.s their friends and enemies.

However, nothing was perfect in the world, including the Devouring attributes. After devouring substantial powers from living beings, they noticed a huge crisis.

Their bodies became messed up.

This was an inevitable phenomenon. Be it powers that were gained from pills or devoured from other beings, they could not compare with powers that were cultivated through hard work.

Of course, disciples from influential sects and the Sky-devouring Devil G.o.d in the past must have unique cultivation techniques to resolve this issue.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow did not have the condition.

They were still utilizing the Devouring attributes to upgrade their powers, but they became aware of the problem.

Nonetheless, now that there was the concentrated immortal liquid, Ou Yangming and Big Yellow saw the hope of solving the problem.

“Hehe, lazy turtle, don't you need this?” Ou Yangming grinned and asked.

The big lazy turtle shook its head and replied to him, “I don't need it; I've gained enough benefits when I cultured them.”

Ou Yangming nodded but sighed. “Lazy turtle, it's such a pity. I'm afraid that these good days can't be sustained any longer…”

“What?” The big lazy turtle was dumbfounded.

The young fellow shrugged and explained helplessly, “Lazy turtle, I received news that someone found out about us having so many spiritual flowers and herbs, and they plan to take forcible possession of them.”

“What?” The big lazy turtle had a fierce look in its eyes. It was no longer sleepy.

Big Yellow exaggerated the story. “Woof, they also said that they'll skin us and cook us!”

“Heh.” A dangerous light could be seen in the lazy turtle's eyes. “What are they? Why are they so cruel?”

Ou Yangming found it funny, but he kept a serious expression on his face. “They're high-rank spirit beasts.”

The lazy turtle lifted its neck and expressed proudly, “High-rank spirit beasts? Leave them to me then!”

It was also a high-rank spirit beast. After having spiritual flowers and herbs on its back, not only was its cultivation base protected, but its combat power skyrocketed as well, thus it would not be afraid of equal-ranked opponents.

“Okay. They're the Twelve Walkers, which are Ghost-clawed Venerable One's followers. I'll leave them to you then.” Ou Yangming was delighted.

“Uh, the Twelve… Walkers?”

“Yes.”

“12 high-rank spirit beasts?”

“I suppose so.”
