Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 692

Liu Xiangrong and the others flushed. In terms of character and knowledge only, they had a huge opinion of Ou Yangming indeed.

Nonetheless, when Ou Yangming retrieved the concentrated immortal liquid and did not stint on using it on the Interspatial Spiritual Tree, they changed their perspective of him. Regardless of how the young fellow acted before this, as long as he used a treasure that benefitted the spiritual tree, everyone acknowledged his ability.

Perhaps Ou Yangming did not have the experience nor skill to save the Interspatial Spiritual Tree, but if he possessed an unlimited amount of the concentrated immortal liquid and used it regardless of its cost, he might be able to create a miracle and save the tree.

Needless to say, it would unquestionably be a wasteful thing to do. If the young fellow had so much of the concentrated immortal liquid, he might be able to purchase a whole Interspatial Spiritual Tree, so why would he waste the liquid on the small tree, which might not survive?

Nevertheless, when Ou Yangming asked if he was qualified to compete for the tree, even the strictest person did not try to stop him anymore.

Mao Jianbi sighed and said, “There's no need for you to ask—you're qualified.” As soon as he said that, n.o.body would dare to object to his decision.

The great elder then cast dignified looks at the 3 other candidates and asked sternly, “What do you plan to exchange the Interspatial Spiritual Tree with?”

Liu Xiangrong immediately answered, “Great Elder, the Liu family's willing to exchange it with 1,200 gold pearls.”

Gold pearls were a kind of specialty produced by the Liu family. They had endless wonderful functions and even had the same effect as an Interspatial Spiritual Tree but with a different approach. Whether it was for the Beast King Sect, the Humans, or the Beasts, gold pearls were considered precious items.

Although they could not replace an Interspatial Spiritual Tree, they were usually the best choice.

In particular, during the refinement of certain pills or the arrangement of some special formations, the pearls would be incredibly effective.

The 1,200 gold pearls would be given across 3 years, but it was quite a generous offer from the Liu family.

Gao Yi bowed at Mao Jianbi and expressed, “The Golden Pill Sect's willing to provide the Beast King Sect with 100 Spirit-gathering Pills.”

“Spirit-gathering Pills…”

“Ah, Spirit-gathering Pills—100 of them. Heh, the Golden Pill Sect's paying quite a high price.”

“Yes, 100 Spirit-gathering Pills can help 100 Extreme Grade cultivators to become Spiritualists! Looks like they'll be bagging the spiritual tree.”

The crowd discussed with one another as they were shocked by the offer made by the Golden Pill Sect.

Even Ou Yangming could not help but look sideways when he heard the offer.

It was not difficult for powerhouses to become Spiritualists in the Spiritual Realm as compared to in the lower realm. Over here, powerhouses could be a.s.sisted by a particular pill, which was the Spirit-gathering Pill.

One would have a higher chance of breaking through if one consumed the pill, but the success rate would not be 100%. No matter what, it would be many times easier than becoming a Spiritualist in the lower realm.

Ideally, 100 Spirit-gathering Pills could help the Beast King Sect bring up 100 Spiritualists. This was a better offer than 1,200 gold pearls.

Afterward, the ratman went forward and spoke in human language, “Great Elder, we're willing to provide you with 100 high-rank spirit ores, so please kindly accept them.”

“High-rank spirit ores?” Mao Jianbi's face changed slightly. He asked in a deep voice, “Where did you find them?”

Earlier when Liu Xiangrong and Gao Yi made their offers, he simply nodded. However, he was moved after he heard about the high-rank spirit ores.

“High-rank spirit ores?” Bear Li stood up all of a sudden and shouted, “I want them—I want them all!”

Mao Jianbi was furious. “Brother Bear, you're not on your mountain, but at the Beast King Sect. Don't you think that you're going overboard?”

Bear Li glared at him and responded, “Hmph, high-rank spirit ores can help us resist the Heavenly Thunderbolts, so I won't give up no matter how much they cost!”

The ratman widened its eyes and smiled bitterly. “Sirs, the Jade Rats dug a tunnel and stumbled upon an ore vein, but we only found 300 over high-rank spirit ores even after we searched the whole area.” It paused for a while before it continued, “We're here to exchange high-rank spirit ores for cultivation resources this time, so you don't need to fight, sirs.”

Mao Jianbi and Bear Li looked at each other. They did not say a while, but they held a grudge against each other for this.

The Jade Rats would probably not be able to preserve any of the high-rank spirit ores. Even so, since they dared to reveal everything in public, they were not thinking about keeping them anyway.

Such items had already been monopolized by top-grade Spiritualists and Venerable One. In fact, it might be a misfortune for the Jade Rats to keep them.

Mao Jianbi pondered for a brief moment before he asked Ou Yangming, “What about you? What do you have to offer?”

Before he asked, he looked at the ratman half-unintentionally. Without a doubt, he had made up his mind.

Liu Xiangrong and Gao Yi exchanged glances. They were helpless.

If the deal was not carried out by a top-grade Spiritualist like Mao Jianbi, their items would definitely be more welcoming than the high-rank spirit ores, where there would be a higher chance for them to be granted the exchange.

Who knew, they encountered a top-grade Spiritualist, who even had the potential to become a Venerable One.

Under the circ.u.mstances, the high-rank spirit ores, which could help top-grade Spiritualists resist the Heavenly Thunderbolts, naturally became Mao Jianbi's best choice. The great elder was only asking Ou Yangming as a procedure; he had already made his decision.

Ou Yangming noticed it as well because the great elder did not try to hide his thoughts at all.

Other people might denounce Mao Jianbi for his act of utilizing his authority for a private interest, but they would not be too calculative about it if they thought about his ident.i.ty and the fact that he might become a Venerable One. Even Yuqi the Venerable One would be glad about this.

Ou Yangming pondered for a brief moment as he was undecided.

Since he was aware of Mao Jianbi's thoughts, the best way would be to suit his liking. The young fellow believed that if he presented a Thunderbolt-resistant Suit, the great elder would surely approve it. Despite that, after getting to know the Spiritual Realm's specific situation, he dared not anyhow reveal a Thunderbolt-resistant Suit.

This was because such a suit would certainly cause a ma.s.sive sensation. Even Ou Yangming himself did not know if it would be good for him to reveal the existence of such a suit.

Having said that, what else could move Mao Jianbi, who was set on becoming a Venerable One?

Ou Yangming looked up and sighed. He initially did not want to show off the item so quickly, but he was left with no choice because of the Interspatial Spiritual Tree.

The young fellow retrieved an interspatial bag and channeled his spiritual power to take out the flying carpet inside.

It was the flying carpet that was refined by Ou Yangming through hard work. While its outer appearance could not be compared with that of Yuqi the Venerable One's flying carpet, it was not that ugly as it was refined from a spirit beast's fur.

As Ou Yangming shook his hand, the flying carpet was unfolded and laid flat on the ground.

It was a carpet refined from a spirit beast's fur, thus it instantly caused everyone to be puzzled when it was placed on the ground.

Everyone including Mao Jianbi was confused.

Even when Ou Yangming retrieved a big bottle that contained the concentrated immortal liquid, they were not as surprised. On the other hand, they were bewildered when they looked at the seemingly normal carpet.

n.o.body could imagine the flying carpet's real function because the idea that only Venerable Blacksmiths could refine them was deeply engraved in their hearts. In actual fact, throughout the countless years of inheritances in the Spiritual Realm, no blacksmith had refined a piece of flight equipment before they became Venerable Ones.

Therefore, n.o.body regarded the item as a flying carpet. Even if someone happened to have such a thought, one would cast it aside right away.

“What's this?” Mao Jianbi was rather displeased.

Ou Yangming grinned and slowly walked to the middle of the flying carpet. “Senior, you'll know once you come and try it.”

Mao Jianbi had a slightly cold look on his face, but he recalled Yuqi the Venerable One's jade pendant. As such, he suppressed his discontent and paced toward the carpet.

'So what if I'm tricked by Ou Yangming in public? As long as I don't offend Yuqi the Venerable One, I don't mind having my image ruined a little.'

That said, Mao Jianbi was suddenly moved when he arrived at the center of the flying carpet and stood next to Ou Yangming.

'Why is this thing similar to Sir Venerable One's treasure? Mm, the workmans.h.i.+p and materials can't be compared, but the aura that's released from this is quite similar to that released from sir's treasure.'

Mao Jianbi looked at Ou Yangming in confusion. He questioned, “Did… Sir give this to you?”

“No, this is something that I refined.” Ou Yangming shook his head with a smile. He paused for a moment before he added, “I've just refined it, so I haven't had the time to test it. It'll be great if you can give me some pointers.”

Mao Jianbi instantly relaxed, but he felt rather regretful.

If this was really the thing that he was thinking about, he would do anything to get his hands on it. Nonetheless, since Ou Yangming said that he had refined this item himself, everything was simply wishful thinking.

Mao Jianbi sighed and asked casually, “What does this thing do? Will you show it?”

He was certain that this item had a unique ability, but it was probably an item made for defense.

Theoretically, this equipment was considered a decent treasure, but he was still inclined toward the high-rank spirit ores.

Ou Yangming nodded, then he channeled his spiritual power into the flying carpet bit by bit to control it. This was his second time controlling it, but it was not a strange process for him.

After all, his practice he did in his spiritual world was useful.

Mao Jianbi put his hands behind his back and looked coldly at his surroundings. Who knew, he suddenly realized that the view around him changed.

Of course, the scenery was the same, but he seemed to be looking from a different height.

Mao Jianbi widened his eyes even more as he finally realized that he was rising into the sky. In fact, he was moving higher and higher…
