Chapter 936: The Return Journey

The air was filled with black smoke, swirling up into the sky like a pack of smoke.

Magma bubbled non-stop. One could see that apart from desolation, there was only loneliness.

Ling Yue and Bai Yue exchanged a look, and they noticed the worry in each other’s eyes.

The former moved his feet and threw a large rock into the magma. In an instant, the rock melted, leaving only a wisp of green smoke floating in the air. He let out a long sigh, “Let’s go. So much time has passed. Brother Yu... I’m afraid that something bad has happened.”

The girl’s eyes reddened, and the corners of her mouth pursed. She did not say anything.

Although she had not known Ou Yangming for long, she had been convinced by Ou Yangming’s talent and charisma.

Not long after, the 2 of them walked down the mountain one after the other.

In the face of a natural disaster, even a cultivator looked so small. If one did not become a Venerable One, they would still be an ant.

In the magma, Ou Yangming swam quickly like a flexible carp. His body was wrapped in heat, and he felt extremely comfortable. When he was about to reach the surface of the magma, with a flash of thought, he released his spiritual power. After making sure that there was no one at the mouth of the volcano, he kicked hard with both feet and jumped out from the volcano.

After practicing the Solitary Thought Skill, his control and utilization of spiritual power had improved. He could condense his spiritual power into a physical form and turn it into a powerful attack. If anyone saw this, they would probably think that they had seen a ghost. This was magma. Even refined iron would be melted into nothing, let alone a mortal body. Following the small path, the young fellow’s body flickered and shot out like a stream of light. He was in a very good mood.

This time, under the magma, he had obtained many yellow Volcanic Ores and even white Volcanic Ores. Moreover, the kinds of material could also expand the space in interspatial bags. Ou Yangming believed that as long as he refined such interspatial bags, he would be able to sweep through the entire Spiritual Realm.

With this trump card and the support of the Beyond Heaven Pavilion, the trading business managed by Bai Shixue would definitely be able to expand at an inconceivable speed.

It did not take long before Ou Yangming reached the foot of the mountain.

From afar, Ou Yangming could hear Jian Chengzhe’s mocking voice. Jian Chengzhe was in a very good mood as he never expected that his junior brother’s “accomplice” would be swallowed by the magma. This was simply a huge gift from the heavens. He had a satisfied smile on his face, and he felt that the sky was bright and clear. He ridiculed, “Junior brother, Yu Tianrui has been swallowed by the magma. It looks like the spot to enter the Big Ruins belongs to Brother Gu. Not only that, but you’re also not qualified to compete with me for the Seven Dazzling Pill anymore.”

After saying that, Jian Chengzhe laughed out loud. As he laughed, he secretly observed Gu Gengren’s expression. Seeing that there was no disgust on his face, he dared to laugh out loud with relief.

Gu Gengren’s eyes revealed a thoughtful look. He did not believe that someone who could give him a sense of danger would be swallowed by the magma.

As expected, before this thought had even faded, a sneer echoed in the crowd. “Hmph! Noisy!” Immediately after, Ou Yangming took a big stride forward and moved tens of meters forward to land beside Ling Yue.

“You... You... You’re not dead?”Jian Chengzhe’s pupils constricted and he was extremely nervous. He could not even say a complete sentence and was feeling regretful. Why did he have to say such harsh words before?

The dispirited expressions on Ling Yue and Yue Yue’s faces changed as they were pleasantly surprised. At the same time, they asked, “Brother Yu, you... You’re fine?”

Ou Yangming gently turned around and raised his eyebrows. He smiled and said, “Do I not look fine?”

The moment he finished, he shifted his gaze to Jian Chengzhe. His aura was extremely cold.

Even though the man was merely a jumping clown to him, Ou Yangming was also a little angry after repeatedly going against him. With a flash of thought, his tyrannical mental power was directly crushed toward Jian Chengzhe.

At this moment, Jian Chengzhe felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast from ancient times. Those scarlet eyes and those sword-like sharp teeth made his body tremble, such that even the blood flowing in his blood vessels stopped. His energy was slowly being stripped away as if it had been sucked clean. He could not help but take 3 or 4 steps back.

Gu Gengren gently waved his long sleeve, dissipating this terrifying aura.

Jian Chengzhe’s body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground. He panted heavily as if he had been scooped out of a pool. His clothes were drenched in sweat, and his face was extremely pale.

Ou Yangming snorted coldly and did not say anything else.

Ling Yue’s eyes flashed, and he thought to himself, ‘Just a glance from him was enough to suppress Jian Chengzhe to the point that he had no combat power. Is a caster really this powerful?’ As for Guan Yue, her lips opened and closed twice, and her eyes wide as she took 2 deep breaths.

Even Gu Gengren’s expression was somewhat solemn. He sneaked a glance at his sleeve and saw a clear cut at the bottom of the sleeve. His fingers stroked the white cloth, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Zuo Fengyu and Deng Pan felt bitter—their hearts were incomparably bitter. The combat power that Ou Yangming had displayed made them feel inferior. They looked at each other and felt that they were in the same boat.

After a moment of silence, Zuo Fengyu stroked his beard and said softly, “Let’s go. It’s almost time. It’s time to go back and see Brother Wen.” He sounded dispirited because he knew that the slot to enter the Big Ruins would surely belong to Gu Gengren.

They had seen with their own eyes that Gu Gengren had obtained a huge amount of Volcanic Ores in these 15 days. Even if he and Deng Pan added up, the amount was less than one-third of that young man. This kind of method had directly shattered the pride in their hearts.

Before he finished speaking, he transformed into a black whirlwind and rushed towards the Seven Stars Sect. No matter how one looked at it, there was a sense of desolation and hesitation.

Gu Gengren glanced at Ou Yangming and nodded slightly. He was dressed in white, and his back slowly disappeared amidst the thick smoke.

After the few of them left, Ling Yue slapped his interspatial bag and took out 110 Volcanic Ores. He sighed and said, “Brother Yu, today’s the fifteenth day, but I only obtained 110 Volcanic Ores. They aren’t much, but they’re still a small token of my appreciation.”

Guan Yue’s interspatial bag lit up, and she took out over 30 Volcanic Ores and handed them to Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming’s body quivered as a warm current grew from nothing. He felt a warmth in his heart.

He raised his hand and kept the Volcanic Ores. He also remembered this favor. There were not many Volcanic Ores, but the emotions within were very strong.

As for where Ou Yangming had gone during this period of time, what he had done, and how he had avoided the eruption of the magma, the 3 of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention it.

“Let’s go!” Ou Yangming spat out the foul air in his heart and lungs.

“Okay!” The 2 others nodded at the same time with a tacit understanding.

Before their voices went away, 3 sounds that tore the air filled the day. After half a day, they saw the 7 main peaks of the Seven Stars Sect again. Ou Yangming had already seen them once, but he was still shocked by the thick and majestic aura.

Of course, Ou Yangming’s favorite thing was a mist that was tens of meters wide in the sky. It was about 3 kilometers long. From afar, it looked like a long river of mist that hung upside down from the nine heavens. It changed every moment and under the illumination of the sunlight, this long river of mist that surged down from the heavenly palace emitted 7-colored rays of light. It was truly a combination of auspicious colors that flew at the same time. The rays of light were roughly 33 kilometers high and magnanimous. In the midst of the mountains, the majestic spiritual spring made Ou Yangming envious.

Ou Yangming retracted his gaze. His eyes rolled, and he asked with a smile, “Brother Ling, is there a place in the Seven Stars Sect that sells magic staffs?”

The Blood Spear Dragon Slayer could be used as a magic staff, but it was his trump card, so he could not easily take it out. Moreover, it was a magic weapon. If it was recognized by others, nobody knew what kind of trouble it would cause. In addition, he had to quickly make gestures to cast magic arts. The casting speed was slow and complicated, which was why he asked this.

“Yes, of course, there is,” Ling Yue answered after some thought.

He had actually been wondering for a long time. It was too strange for a caster to not even have a magic staff.

Ou Yangming’s face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly said, “Then after the slot to enter the Big Ruins is set, I’ll have to trouble you to accompany me there.”

Ling Yue looked troubled and hesitant.

Ou Yangming’s observation skill had reached a certain level. He cupped his hands and asked, “Brother Ling, are you troubled by something?”

“Brother Yu, to be honest, there are too few casters, and the smithing of magic staff is much more difficult than ordinary pieces of equipment. As such, magic staffs are a little... A little expensive,” Ling Yue said with a bitter smile.

Ou Yangming understood. The young man was afraid that he would not be able to afford one. He laughed bitterly in his heart and thought, ‘Before this, I suppressed all of the aristocratic families in Huixun City and bought the Heavenly Fire Ore from the auction. No matter how expensive a magic staff is, how expensive can it be?’?

The corner of his mouth curled upwards, forming a beautiful curve. He said sincerely, “Brother Ling, don’t worry. I still have some savings. The price won’t be a problem.”

Ling Yue’s eyes focused, and he no longer spoke. He became certain that this person was certainly a disciple from a large sect from outside. His words, actions, attitude, and character were all things that a small aristocratic family could not nurture. Therefore, the young man had a much stronger conviction to build a good relationship with Ou Yangming.

The golden sunlight was warm, and the breezes were gentle. Amidst the breezes, the 3 of them walked side by side and soon arrived at the foot of the Ultimate Sword Peak. In front of them were 10 archways that were about 333 meters tall. The majestic atmosphere of the greatest sect in Zhangzhou was undoubtedly revealed.

At this time, the 2 disciples, who were Rudimentary Spiritualists and were guarding the Ultimate Sword Peak, still remembered Ou Yangming and nodded at him.

Ou Yangming was slightly startled, but he nodded with a smile.

By the time they arrived at the small courtyard along the winding and rugged mountain path, it was already evening, and the sunlight was gentle.

Ling Yue let go of Guan Yue’s hand and said with a light smile, “Brother Yu, it’s already late today. Tomorrow, I’ll go with you to visit Master.”

Ou Yangming did not ask further and nodded. He believed that Ling Yue must have his own thoughts.

Under the setting sun, a man and a woman slowly walked out of the courtyard. Ou Yangming looked into the distance.

The golden sunlight, the white mist, and the faintly discernible peak were like the most perfect painting.

With a flash of thought, Ou Yangming took out a green Volcanic Ore and rubbed it on his fingertips. He no longer thought about anything.
