Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 527

Multi-armed King Kong waited outside the city for only 2 hours before it left with rumbling sounds again.

When the gigantic beasts went far away, everyone in the city knew Changlong City's hero had gone too. Nonetheless, most people did not know the exact reason Ou Yangming left in such a hurry, and they had no idea that the imperial family and the inherited aristocratic families from the 8 counties were on the verge of a dispute.

The Humans did not crumble during the disaster, but there were signs of a civil war.

It was not Ou Yangming's first time entering the capital. Although he remembered the way there, he did not hasten on with his journey this time; he sat on Multi-armed King Kong's back and traveled at a normal speed.

Each time the king kong pa.s.sed by a village or a city, it attracted plenty of attention and even caused disturbances.

Even when Multi-armed King Kong did not terrorize the people at all, n.o.body could ignore it because of its build. Soon enough, the news of a humongous spirit beast about to enter the capital was spread to everyone in the world, and it also became a hot topic in the capital. Even so, people found it strange that while the common folks were discussing it, the imperial family and the powerful aristocratic families in the capital did not say a word about it.

Be it clans that received Ou Yangming's kindness, which helped their powerhouses become Supreme Great Ancestors and received magic tools, or the Zhang family, which were already enemies with the young fellow, they all kept quiet. Perhaps they were waiting for a response from the imperial family.

In the 8 counties, the imperial family might be known to be contending with the inherited aristocratic families from the upper realm, but they were dominant in the capital, hence none of the clan would have the guts to cross the line regarding this issue. Even if they were personally close to Ou Yangming, none of them dared to screw up, or their clans would not have a firm hold in the capital anymore.

As Multi-armed King Kong advanced, it got closer to the capital.

Ou Yangming did not ask the king kong to move as fast as a violent storm, but he did not purposely ask it to slow down too.

Apart from expressing his att.i.tude, he was also doing this because he planned to pressure the capital from all directions.

All of a sudden, the goshawk in the sky swooped down excitedly.

“Master, a human powerhouse is blocking your path in front. I'll take care of him for you,” it informed Ou Yangming in high spirits.

Ever since the goshawk was subdued by Ou Yangming, other than contributing during the Insects' fight, it did not accomplish anything else. As for the fight against the spirit turtle on the beach, its performance was inferior to Multi-armed King Kong. Therefore, the spirit bird was unwilling to miss any chance to prove itself.

Needless to say, the goshawk was not a fool, and it did not want to infuriate Ou Yangming. Thus, it did not attack recklessly when it noticed an equal-ranked human powerhouse obstructing the path ahead, and it flew down to ask for the young fellow's instructions.

“A human powerhouse—is it a Spirit Grade powerhouse?” Ou Yangming asked.

He figured that the goshawk could not have been so eager to deal with a Supreme Great Ancestor.

Sure enough, the goshawk nodded and answered, “Master, you're wise.”

Multi-armed King Kong's eyes lit up. “Master, that fella can just provide you the information; let me handle the fighting!”

Big Yellow barked as it was displeased.

'The two of you can be a detective and a mount, respectively. I've been so bored from staying here that my bones are about to fall apart.'

Hong Feiyu's face changed, and he thought, 'The 3 spirit beasts have expressed themselves, so I can't show a weak impression!'

He went forward and bowed as he suggested, “Brother Ou, I haven't made the slightest contribution ever since I followed you, so how about you let me settle this problem for you this time?”

Ou Yangming looked speechlessly at them. 'A bunch of fellas that only use their forces to kill is truly distressing.

'Forget about the 3 spirit beasts—why is Hong Feiyu getting in on the action…'

He scoffed and said, “If I'm not mistaken, that person's Senior Wu Yuanwei—the imperial family's greatest powerhouse.”

“The imperial family's greatest powerhouse?” Hong Feiyu's eyes gleamed. “Brother Ou, since that person is here, isn't this a perfect opportunity for us to strike first to gain the upper hand?”

Ou Yangming glanced at him and responded, “Senior Wu gave me some pointers in the past and even used the secret realm to upgrade my cultivation base from Yang Grade Cla.s.s One to the peak of Cla.s.s Five. Are you asking me to be an ungrateful person?”

Hong Feiyu's face changed, and he smiled embarra.s.sedly. “Brother Ou, please forgive me for being too rash.”

Big Yellow looked around and immediately lay on the ground as though it never got up in the first place.

Multi-armed King Kong turned to look forward and swung its arms steadily while it walked. It was so focused that n.o.body could find fault in it at all.

As for the goshawk, it spread its wings and soared into the sky, and it dared not descend anymore.

Ou Yangming turned around with a hostile look on his face. Hong Feiyu's back was already drenched in a cold sweat, and he quickly proposed, “Master Ou, since he's here to block your path, I'm sure he has something to say. How about I invite him over?”

“You mustn't treat him impolitely. Go on,” Ou Yangming answered after a moment of hesitation.

“Yes.” With that, Hong Feiyu flashed and jumped off the king kong's back.

Multi-armed King Kong would have glared furiously at him if he normally did that, but it did not seem to have noticed at all this time, so much so that it did not peek in that direction at all.

Hong Feiyu moved at lightning speed and dashed forward.

On the other hand, Multi-armed King Kong walked normally behind. It was extremely fast too, but it was much slower than a Spirit Grade powerhouse going all-out.

Before long, Hong Feiyu spotted an elder on the path ahead. The elder smiled with his hands behind his back and was not surprised by the man's arrival.

“Is that you, Brother Hong? I'm being discourteous.”

Hong Feiyu laughed out loud and cut to the chase. “Brother Wu, you don't need to be so polite. I came by Brother Ou's order to invite you over.”

He did not expose his ident.i.ty when he first arrived at Canghai City, but news spread after Ou Yangming seized him and asked for his name.

Wu Yuanwei nodded. “Master Ou's a gifted genius that rose during the Humans' disaster, and he's the person that I respect the most throughout my life. Please lead the way, Brother Hong.” He cupped his hands at the man.

Hong Feiyu nodded as he was pleased. Back then, he was forced to follow Ou Yangming, or he could not have survived. Seeing as the only Spirit Grade powerhouse from this realm admired the young fellow so much, he felt better.

If Wu Yuanwei was indifferent toward Ou Yangming, Hong Feiyu would have pulled a long face at him.

When the two of them turned around, they saw Multi-armed King Kong's mountainous body from afar. Hong Feiyu was already used to it, but Wu Yuanwei also kept a straight face, which astonished the man.

Such a giant beast was definitely distinctive in the lower realm as they could only be seen in the upper realm.

Despite that, the imperial family's greatest powerhouse was not nervous at all when he saw the beasts for the first time, so it was quite strange.

With a flash of thought from Ou Yangming, Multi-armed King Kong, which was moving swiftly, stopped. It widened its eyes at Wu Yuanwei, who was as tiny as an ant in the distance, and it could not hide the scornful look on its face.

'Is that the Humans' greatest powerhouse in the lower realm?

'Hmph, if it wasn't for Master, I would've slapped you to death already!'

It regarded Ou Yangming as its master whole-heartedly, but it did not think about how discontent it was when it first met the young fellow in the past.

Ou Yangming jumped off the king kong's back as well, and he used the tips of his toes to borrow force on different points on the beast's body. He was treated differently from Hong Feiyu because the spirit beast had prepared all 8 of its palms and placed them at different heights, hence he did not need to worry at all.

In actual fact, if Ou Yangming was willing to, he could have asked Multi-armed King Kong to carry him to the ground with one hand, but he was not interested in such a pretentious act.

“Senior Wu, it has been a long time since we last met.” Ou Yangming did a fist salutation from a distance away.

Wu Yuanwei chuckled. He dared not consider himself an elder and returned the salutation as if they had the same seniority. “Master Ou, you were still at the peak of Yang Grade when we parted the last time. Congratulations on entering Spirit Grade.”

Ou Yangming shook his head. “Everything was by coincidence; I simply chanced upon it.”

“The people of our generation only look at the result, not the process. Since you're that capable, the rest… Isn't important.”

“Senior Wu, given that you're visiting me halfway, I suppose you're aware of the purpose of my trip,” Ou Yangming expressed after keeping quiet for some time.

“Of course.” Wu Yuanwei chuckled.

“Okay, I'll be honest with you then—I'm here to take Old Man away,” Ou Yangming uttered sternly.

“We won't stop him if he's willing to leave,” Wu Yuanwei replied to him without any hesitation.

“Senior Wu, you're a man of your word, so I trust you.” Ou Yangming laughed out loud. He knew the elder must have a way to not let Old Craftsman want to leave, but he was confident as long as he had the elder's word.

Who knew, Wu Yuanwei suddenly asked, “Master Ou, may I ask where you're going to bring Old Craftsman to?”

Ou Yangming pondered for a while but could not make up his mind.

He did not want to get involved in the fight between the imperial family and the inherited aristocratic families from the 8 counties, but unless he and the old man lived in seclusion in the forest, he was bound to be entangled in the matter regardless of the city he was in.

Wu Yuanwei stared at the young fellow and said, “Master Ou, I actually have a suggestion, and I was wondering if you'll consider it.”

“Senior, please go ahead.” Ou Yangming was moved.

“What do you think if I could possibly send Old Craftsman to the upper realm?” Wu Yuanwei pointed proudly at the upper realm.

Ou Yangming was reminded of what Zhiming the Venerable One told him. Due to the interspatial disorder, the upper realm might build a fixed pa.s.sage.

If the pa.s.sage was successfully built, it would no longer be difficult for people to travel between the two realms.

Besides, this was the only way for earthlings such as Old Craftsman to enter the upper realm successfully.
