Immortal Path to Heaven
Chapter 593 - The Second White Silver
Chapter 593: The Second White Silver
Ou Yangming’s Military Fire burned slowly, but as Mount Liang Wolf King watched anxiously and eagerly, the young fellow suddenly stopped.
He turned to look at the spirit wolf and noted, “Wolf King, I have a habit when I smith pieces of equipment.”
Mount Liang Wolf King was stunned, and it asked, “What is it?”
Ou Yangming pulled a long face and answered, “I don’t want anyone watching me or it’ll affect my mood and cause me to fail.”
The spirit wolf widened its eye and cursed, ‘What excuse is that? Didn’t you smith this armor in public?’
Despite cursing internally, it dared not express its disobedience at all, hence it forced a smile and responded, “I see. Master Ou, please smith with ease here while I protect you outside.” It glanced at Big Yellow then shook and left the quiet place.
Big Yellow widened its mouth and noted with a smile, “I’ll guard this area too.” It wagged its tail and went a distance away from Ou Yangming, then it sat at the junction and watched its surroundings warily.
Ou Yangming grinned. Instead of going straight into smithing the equipment, he retrieved enough Power ores and Agility Ores.
Inside the scorching Military Fire, plenty of Power Ores and Agility Ores disappeared quickly as they were converted into Tremendous Power Spirit Ores and High Agility Spirit Ores.
If any blacksmith or spirit beast witnessed the scene, one would definitely jump and not believe what one was seeing.
Although Power Ores and Tremendous Power Spirit Ores were minerals of the power system, the energies that they contained were Heaven and Earth apart. In terms of value, 100 Power Ores could not even be used to exchange for a Tremendous Power Spirit Ore.
It was worth noting that the act of layering energies from Power Ores to produce a Tremendous Power Spirit Ore was unheard of.
If this was publicized, Ou Yangming could easily be acknowledged among the Humans for the unique skill.
The young fellow stopped after making 20 Tremendous Power Spirit Ores and 10 High Agility Spirit Ores.
As long as Ou Yangming succeeded once, he could repeat the process without any limit. He had stopped at this moment not because he had insufficient power, but because he had no more materials.
Even though he gathered many precious minerals from the lower realm and even stored numerous Power Ores and Agility Ores, there were very few of them left in his interspatial bag. At more, he could only merge one more Tremendous Power Spirit Ore.
Ou Yangming pondered for a while and decided not to form the last Tremendous Power Spirit Ore. He began to take in materials and melted them to form a piece of equipment.
Burned by the Military Fire, a Good Grade Rank Four magic tool was made in no time. Instead of attaching a Tremendous Power Spirit Ore to it, he melted powers ores bit by bit and layered their powers.
He wanted to try if he could directly upgrade the Power attribute to the White Silver level without using a Tremendous Power Spirit Ore.
It would seem unnecessary, but Ou Yangming still enjoyed the process very much. This was because it was a blacksmith’s instinct to deal with various unforeseen situations. Since this method crossed his mind, he naturally wanted to try it.
“Boom…”
A soft sound was heard coming from the greave. Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up.
When the twenty-first Power Ore’s power was layered on the equipment, the greave instantly released a stream of light, which surrounded it and caused him to be dazzled.
A piece of White Silver Equipment—the greave had become a legitimate piece of White Silver Equipment.
Ou Yangming curled his lips into a faint smile. From then on, it would not be tough for him to smith pieces of White Silver Equipment anymore.
He curbed his thought and continued to smith, then he attached the newly-gained intermediate Stone Awl Penetration Skill to the equipment.
If other blacksmiths were present, even if they were as familiar with Rune Skills as they could be, they could not guarantee a 100% success rate. This was because slight negligence could cause one’s previous efforts to be in vain and even destroy a piece of equipment.
The engraving of a Rune Skill was a magnificent feat of communicating with the universe’s spiritual power, and it could not tolerate even the slightest mistake.
Nonetheless, Ou Yangming had the unique Military Fire in his sea of consciousness. The engraving process was equivalent to the replication of a rune as though he was using a photocopy machine; there could not be deviations.
After 15 minutes, the powerful and distinctive equipment was finally completed.
Ou Yangming smiled and called out to the spirit beasts, “Come over here.”
With that, 2 flashes of figures were seen as Mount Liang Wolf King and Big Yellow ran over at the same time. They stared at Ou Yangming’s greave.
Ou Yangming sensed the greave’s properties and somehow lamented.
It was true that the greave was attached with a potent Rune Skill, which was also an intermediate skill, but the skill might not perfectly merge with Mount Liang Wolf King’s gifted abilities.
In other words, even if Ou Yangming were to attach a water mastery’s Rudimentary Skill on the greave, Mount Liang Wolf King could unleash greater power with it.
He had promised the spirit wolf to customize a piece of equipment for it but while the equipment was tailored to it indeed, its effect was just passable.
Ou Yangming shook his head and thought, ‘It’ll be great if I knew more intermediate Rune Skills.
“Master Ou, you’re done?” Mount Liang Wolf King cast a covetous look at the greave in Ou Yangming’s hand. However, it could not help but feel anxious again when it noticed the young fellow being deep in thoughts.
‘Did Master Ou make a mistake?’
Nevertheless, according to Ou Yangming’s way of directly applying what he had just learned, it would not seem odd even if he really made a mistake.
“It’s done, so go ahead and try it.” Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. He turned to look up and thought, ‘Tens of high-rank spirit beasts are still there. If I want to gain more Intermediate Runes, I can’t miss them no matter what.’
At this moment, the high-rank spirit beasts in front of the crystal wall shivered at the same time. They looked at each other and wondered as they were puzzled, ‘Why did the weather suddenly turn cold?’
Mount Liang Wolf King put on the grave impatiently and was about to experience the equipment’s power when Big Yellow shouted abruptly, “Hey, are you trying to alarm the people behind the crystal wall?”
The spirit wolf was dumbfounded, then it replied to the yellow dog embarrassedly, “Don’t worry, I’ll control it well.”
This place was a distance away from the crystal wall but if Mount Liang Wolf King went all out, it could still cause an enormous impact.
On the contrary, the situation would be entirely different once it controlled the equipment’s skill well.
As soon as it channeled its spiritual power into the greave, it sensed the White Silver Power that was fed back to its body. It was highly spirited, and it bared its teeth while its aura became stronger.
Mount Liang Wolf King’s armor and greave contained White Silver Powers, causing its overall power to skyrocket. Even if it encountered an equal-ranked spirit elephant at the moment, it was confident about contending with it.
Apart from the increase in its power, it also sensed the Skill Rune.
The Skill Rune lit up at once when it was prompted by Mount Liang Wolf King’s spiritual power. When the spirit wolf gently swung its claws, a stone awl emerged from the ground in front of it.
While this was its first time using the Stone Awl Skill, it was well-experienced, hence it controlled the skill unusually well. In fact, Big Yellow even shuddered in fear.
Sure enough, high-rank spirit beasts had unordinary abilities. They were superior not only in terms of power, but also in every aspect.
Ou Yangming turned to look at Big Yellow. It was clear that he was telling the big yellow dog to work harder.
Big Yellow’s eyes rolled about. Nobody knew what it was planning in its head.
Once Mount Liang Wolf King was done testing the greave, it fiddled with it as it was reluctant to part with it.
Ou Yangming cleared his throat and asked, “Wolf King, are you satisfied?”
In terms of cultivation base only, the young fellow would not have dared to address the spirit wolf like that. Having said that, Mount Liang Wolf King did not want to take the risk to be calculative over this, thus it nodded and answered, “I’m satisfied—of course, I’m satisfied.” It leaped toward Ou Yangming and retrieved its interspatial bag. “Master Ou, your spirit ores are here, so let’s trade.”
“Alright.” Ou Yangming beamed.
He kept the same spirit ores into his bag and expressed, “Wolf King, I’d like to ask you for a favor.”
Mount Liang Wolf King immediately stuck out its chest and rejoined, “Master Ou, please give me your orders.”
After witnessing Ou Yangming’s skills, it was already prepared to humble itself to fawn over the young fellow, but it was initially fretting over how it could do it. Who knew, Ou Yangming took the initiative and asked for its help, so it agreed right away.
“I’d like to take a look at the mountain peak, but I must smith satisfactory pieces of equipment for 10 high-rank spirit beasts,” Ou Yangming noted in a deep voice and continued after a pause, “I don’t have sufficient materials, so I’d like you to find 9 high-ranked spirit beasts. They need to provide me with the smithing materials and reward me with 1,000 spirit ores after that.”
“This…” Mount Liang Wolf King was struck dumb, and it smiled bitterly. “Master Ou, 1,000 spirit ores won’t be a problem, but if they need to prepare the materials, I’m afraid that…”
High-rank spirit beasts were wealthy, but their spirit ores did not grow on trees too. As such, none of them could offer the rewards.
Ou Yangming stated, “I only need a set of basic materials. As for the Tremendous Power Spirit Ores, I’ll be providing them.
Mount Liang Wolf King’s eyes gleamed. “You only need a set of basic materials?”
“Yes.”
“Master Ou, are you really confident?”
“If you don’t believe me, you don’t have to go,” Ou Yangming uttered.
Mount Liang Wolf King quickly waved its paw and said, “Master Ou, please calm down. I’ll go talk to them now, and I won’t disappoint you for sure.” Before its voice even died away, it had flashed and disappeared.
Ou Yangming sighed. If it was not because he was embarrassingly short of basic materials, he would not have made such a request.
That said, as long as he could learn new Skill Runes from the spirit beasts, everything he did would be worth it.
