Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 708

There was finally a subtle change in the faces of Immortal Fox and the others.

If Ou Yangming tried to bait the top-notch top-grade Spiritualists to partic.i.p.ate in the war by using only 1 flying carpet, they might not be moved at all.

After all, given that Venerable Ones would be involved in the war, the top-grade Spiritualists dared not guarantee that they could survive. Therefore, it would be hard for the 20 over top-grade Spiritualists to be interested in fighting for a flying carpet. Moreover, they would have to exchange the carpet with precious treasures, hence most of them frowned at first.

Nonetheless, they were moved by what Ou Yangming promised them after that.

3 flying carpets, which would be given out for free.

All of the top-grade Spiritualists subconsciously exchanged glances. They could see the strong desires in each other's eyes.

In actuality, given their cultivation bases, they could control their expressions very well. Even so, they also understood each other's psychological changes very well because their cultivation bases were similar.

As long as they had hope of getting the flying carpets, they would not give up.

Even if Ou Yangming did not bring up his second condition, at least half of the top-grade Spiritualists would choose to join the war after thinking carefully. When the second condition was mentioned, they understood that it was a compet.i.tion that they could not flinch from.

It was not a compet.i.tion against the Insects and their fellows only but most importantly, it was a compet.i.tion against themselves.

If they were not confident about standing out among the equal-ranked powerhouses, how could they become Venerable Ones?

Hence, instead of hiding their desires, the powerhouses expressed their momentums and determinations.

Immortal Fox chuckled and remarked, “Master Ou, you're really generous.”

Ou Yangming nodded. “For my human fellas that have died unjustly, it's only right for me to do this.”

Everyone else was slightly stunned. Bear Li even asked straightforwardly, “Master Ou, what do you mean?”

Ou Yangming sighed and told everyone about what he encountered in the small towns. He noted, “Since they were terribly killed by the Insects, I must take revenge for them. Ghost-clawed Venerable One from the Insects didn't hesitate to leave the Ghost Cave to capture me, and Yuqi the Venerable One ended up having a conflict with it to save me. Heh, how can I not do my best when there are old and new grudges?”

Immortal Fox and the others looked at each other. They finally found out about the enmity between the young fellow and the Insects' Venerable One.

Nevertheless, Immortal Fox and the rest did not care about the grudges between Ou Yangming and Ghost-clawed; they only wanted the flying carpet.

The spirit fox slowly stood up and asked in a deep voice, “Master Ou, were the people that were killed related to you?”

Ou Yangming shook his head and answered, “Not at all.”

“Oh, I see…” Immortal Fox curled its lips and managed to comment after a brief moment, “Master Ou, you're incredibly righteous. I'm in admiration…”

Most of the top-grade spirit beasts cursed internally after hearing what it said, 'Righteous my *ss. Since he wasn't related to those people, why did he stand up for them? In the end, such an insignificant matter triggered a war between the Insects and the Humans. He's really… Unreasonable!'

From the perspectives of the top-notch powerhouses, not to mention the ordinary people from the 2 small towns, even if the people involved were 10 times more than that, they would not be bothered at all.

Perhaps they thought that other than the things that could affect their sects' or races' foundations, everything else was trivial, such that there was no need to go to war because of them.

Who knew, Ou Yangming schemed a plan to murder the Twelve Walkers over the dead people from the 2 small towns…

If the top-grade powerhouses were in Ghost-clawed Venerable One's shoes, they would not have been able to swallow the insult.

Despite that, no matter what they were thinking, they acted as if they also developed anger against a common enemy in front of Ou Yangming.

'Ah, since we've decided to help, no matter who's right or wrong, we'll help the ones that we're closer to instead of what's reasonable. No, we'll help the party that'll benefit us the most.'

Immortal Fox cleared its throat and raised another question, “Master Ou, could you tell me how you'll determine the ones with the most excellent military services?”

Everyone fell silent and looked at Ou Yangming while they wondered as well.

Since Ou Yangming had gotten pointers from Yuqi the Venerable One, he answered right away with a smile, “Senior, do you still need to ask?” He looked around and stated loudly, “I supposed you're aware of each other's performance. Hehe, I believe that once the Insects are defeated, 3 of you will naturally rise above the rest.”

Immortal Fox and the others were dumbfounded, then they could not help but laugh and thought, 'This slippery fella's truly unexpected.'

In any case, they knew since they had similar statuses, they would have to work harder during the war.

It was evident that apart from wanting to fight for the 3 slots, most importantly, they were not willing to be the worst performer.

Immortal Fox shook its head and said, “Alright, since you're so determined, Master Ou, I'll be the first to sign up for the war.” It paused for a moment then suddenly looked at Mao Jianbi and the others. “To be fair, our friends from the Beast King Sect should be excluded.”

“Why is that so?” Mao Jianbi widened his eyes. “Brother Fox, you're going overboard!”

“The Spiritualists from the Beast King Sect are obliged to join the war, but we're outsiders, so it'll be unfair for us to compete with you. Besides…” Immortal Fox explained. Its eyes flickered as it continued, “Since Master Ou's staying in the Beast King Sect, do you need to worry about your pieces of equipment?”

“Yes, Brother Fox is right.” Bear Li was the first to agree with the spirit fox.

The other top-grade Spiritualists nodded as well. As said by Immortal Fox, they were risking their lives by partic.i.p.ating in the war as outsiders, thus they could not be compared with equal-ranked cultivators from the Beast King Sect no matter what.

Mao Jianbi and the other powerhouses from his sect looked at each other and discussed for a while before they finally agreed to it.

Having said that, they also made selfish calculations. As long as Ou Yangming was still in the sect, would they need to worry about not being able to obtain flying carpets?

Not only the other top-grade Spiritualists from the sect, but Mao Jianbi also coveted flying carpets very much. The great elder was moved after he saw the quality of the second flying carpet.

So what if he already possessed one? n.o.body said that one could not pursue something better.

Ou Yangming smiled gladly after he looked at everyone's expression.

As long as he could give more troubles to the Insects, he would be willing to do anything.

The Insects' invasion and the Beast King Sect's resistance were only a slightly bigger conflict between the Humans and the Insects; they were still far from a full-scale war.

As for the foreign top-grade Spiritualists, they came from different races and were core figures that were only second to Venerable Ones in their respective race or sect. If they ended up being killed during the war, the influential forces that they represented would surely be enraged.

Although the Beast King Sect would also be blamed, in comparison, the Insects, which were the culprit, would suffer a more serious impact.

This was the real intention of Yuqi the Venerable One and Ou Yangming.

After Immortal Fox and the others left, Ou Yangming shut the door to his courtyard and began to derive something new with sheets of high-rank spirit beasts' fur.

He did not plan to immediately refine a new flying carpet, but it was necessary for him to pretend that he had to make exhausting preparations beforehand.

Sure enough, before long, Tian Yinghao made his way to Ou Yangming's courtyard. While the young fellow received him, he acted like he was pondering deeply with a high-rank spirit beast's fur.

Tian Yinghao knew what he was doing, and he could not help but envy.

Ou Yangming glanced at the man and asked with a smile, “Brother Tian, would you like to refine flying carpets too?”

“Which blacksmith wouldn't want to? Unfortunately, we're neither gifted nor capable in this.” Tian Yinghao smiled bitterly. He later slapped his head and asked, “Brother Ou, are you about to refine one now? I'll be leaving then.”

“I need to spend a long time designing if I want to refine a flying carpet. If I make even the slightest mistake, my efforts will be in vain, and the raw material will be wasted.” Ou Yangming waved his hand and shook his head. “Without taking 10 to 15 days, I won't be able to design a Flight Rune.”

“A Flight Rune?” Tian Yinghao's eyes lit up.

Ou Yangming grinned and responded, “Yes, a Flight Rune. Are you willing to learn about them?”

Tian Yinghao pointed at his nose in disbelief. “Me? Learning about Flight Runes…”

“Yes.” Ou Yangming laughed out loud. He said excitedly, “Come, I'll tell you about them.”

Tian Yinghao was elated as it was a free lunch. He might not be able to refine a flying carpet after learning about Flight Runes, it was a golden opportunity for him.”

He was fully focused as he learned.

However, he smiled bitterly after half an hour. He could understand every word mentioned by Ou Yangming separately, but together they were equivalent to a profound heavenly book, which could not be fathomed by him at all.

After describing Flight Runes once, Ou Yangming shook his head and went into his room as though he was disappointed.

Tian Yinghao flushed and left. He pondered for a long time before he found Bai Zhiyi and Peng Yanbing, who were 2 smithing masters.

When the masters heard that Tian Yinghao had learned about Flight Runes, they put everything aside and listened to him closely.

Tian Yinghao could not understand what Ou Yangming said, but he could repeat everything without a problem.

The only thing was that the extremely experienced masters were also baffled after they listened to everything, where they could not comprehend anything about Flight Runes at all.

Peng Yanbing finally sighed after a long time and commented helplessly, “Ah, it's said that one must be a Venerable One to study Flight Runes. It's true indeed…”

Tian Yinghao clicked his tongue and mumbled, “Brother Ou's only an Intermediate Spiritualist!”

Peng Yanbing's face reddened. He glared at the man and questioned, “He's a peerless freak but what are you? How can you compare with him?”

Tian Yinghao was shocked. He dared not say another word.

That said, from then on, the fact that Ou Yangming was regarded as a freak spread far and wide in the Beast King Sect, and it was eventually known by everyone in the realm.
