Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 757

Time was trickling away. Ou Yangming hosted everything quietly and slowly gained a new understanding.

He had acquired the Military Fire by a fortuitous chance. Ever since then, the fire had become his biggest reliance. As for the Devouring attribute, it was similar to a rootless tree, where it could only be enveloped by the Military Fire in the past without being able to resist at all.

Nonetheless, through Ou Yangming cultivation for a long time and the many opportunities that he stumbled upon, the Devouring attribute finally paved a path that belonged to itself.

In particular, during the Devouring attribute's unusual contact with the Dragon Coffin, it absorbed some power and transformed into an unknown head, which hid in the young fellow's sea of consciousness together with his Heavenly Phoenix Fire.

Based on his observation, Ou Yangming could confirm that his Military Fire, which represented a Heavenly Phoenix Fire, might not be mightier than the weird head.

In a way, they were well-matched in power, and it would be hard to say which could suppress the other.

Needless to say, this was because they were both living in Ou Yangming's sea of consciousness, where the greatest powers that they released were also based on uniform standards.

If not, the giant head, which could grow stronger by devouring continuously, might have surpa.s.sed the Heavenly Phoenix Fire already.

The 2 energies with different properties seemed to not be able to do anything to each other because they had similar strengths. Therefore, there was somehow an enmity between them, where they even occupied different spots in Ou Yangming's sea of consciousness without disturbing each other.

Even so, the situation was slowly being improved.

Especially under Ou Yangming's control at the moment, the Military Fire and the giant head were working toward the same goal, where they kept absorbing, converting, and released pure mental power. As such, the 2 dissimilar powers became more familiarized with each other, cooperated, and even fused partially.

Although they still would not merge into one, they would become more in sync with each other. If Ou Yangming were to face enemies or smith anything in the future, this would be unexpectedly useful.

All of a sudden, Ou Yangming furrowed his eyebrows.

He was sharp enough to sense that the energy transmitted from the white ore had reduced by a huge margin.

The young fellow had no idea what the small white ore was. It was only the size of an adult human's fist, but it contained abundant energy such that the Devouring attribute was absorbing the energy without an end.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming was relieved when he sensed that the energy was slowly becoming weak.

If the white ore's energy was still so forceful, Ou Yangming would not know what he should do.

Next, the giant head instantly expressed its pa.s.siveness. It was as though it lost interest in the white ore because the energy had reduced by a big margin.

Ou Yangming was rather surprised. After sensing carefully for a brief moment, he vaguely understood what was going on.

When the transmitted energy decreased, the white ore's energy seemed to have become less pure, and the intense chillness no longer stood out, thus it became more acceptable.

Perhaps this was the reason the giant head lost interest in it.

Even though the Devouring attribute was still drawing the white ore's energy, it was only because Ou Yangming was taking control. As for the giant head itself, it did not have a strong desire anymore.

Ou Yangming shook his head and cursed internally, ‘This fella's really picky.'

In certain aspects, the giant head behaved like a human.

Humans preferred delicious food. The tastier the food, the more one would like it, by which one would have a better appet.i.te and would want to eat more of it.

The giant head seemed to be very picky about energies as well. Its favorite was the purest kind of energies, where it would have a lower desire to obtain energies with reduced qualities. The head would not mind drawing those energies but similar to a human taking a normal meal, one would not eat more on purpose if one was not hungry.

Ou Yangming did not know if this change was good or bad, but it seemed like that giant head was developing in a more intelligent direction.

Struck with a thought, Ou Yangming stopped drawing the energy and exhaled deeply. With that, the energy conversions came to an end.

The young fellow casually kept the white ore in his interspatial bag. Despite that, instead of the bag that stored rare ores, he kept it in one that stored ordinary ores.

He had at least 10 interspatial bags with him, each one had its own use.

Ou Yangming naturally would not ignore the white ore when it could attract the giant head's attention, hence he placed it in the best interspatial bag. Now that the ore's energy was reduced by a level and did not seem to have a future, he casually put it aside.

It was not that Ou Yangming liked the new and disliked the old, but this was what a normal person would have done.

Unless an item had an irreplaceable function or memory, it would not be treasured or kept anymore once it lost its value.

Having said that, once Ou Yangming put the white ore into the interspatial bag with the ordinary ores, a peculiar energy fluctuation was released from it.

An ordinary cultivator might have neglected it; since the white ore was also dumped into the pile, one would not observe it on purpose anymore. However, Ou Yangming's mind had long surpa.s.sed the integration of Heaven and man as he had reached the thoroughly meticulous stage.

The second Ou Yangming withdrew his mental conception, he vaguely sensed the unusual change inside the interspatial bag.

After losing enormous energy, the white ore still released a hint of energy, but it was so subtle that it could not be easily detected by normal people, let alone being spotted during that split second.

That said, Ou Yangming happened to have noticed it. He was surprised, so he released his mental conception once more.

The small white ore had surprised him greatly, but it seemed like the surprise was not over yet.

Ou Yangming probed the interspatial bag carefully with his mental conception. He was similar to an omnipresent and omniscient deity inside, by which nothing could hide from his senses.

Following that, he found something incredibly odd indeed.

He had casually tossed the white ore into a pile of ordinary ores. Of course, while the other ores were not valuable in the Spiritual Realm, they would be rare items in the lower realm.

At this moment, the normal ores that were close to the white ore were undergoing unbelievable changes.

Invisible energies were flowing, and they seemed to have formed a thin yet solid net that enveloped all of the ores.

Once the thin net was constructed, all of the threads instantly unleashed unimaginable functions, where ores that were in contact with them were shrinking without a sound. It was as if the threads had the Unique Attribute to devour the ores, allowing them to swallow the ores that they were in touch with.

Of course, the changes that were happening to the ores were not visible because the threads were too thin.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming could sense that the seemingly smooth ores were already covered with many marks that looked like scratches.

As for the powders of the ores on those marks, they were devoured by the threads soundlessly.

Ou Yangming could not help but gulp. He was deeply in awe of this discovery.

He suddenly came to a sudden realization that the white ore seemed to carry a Devouring Attribute too. After its power was absorbed by the giant head, it could use that ability to steal energies from other ores to strengthen itself.

Sure enough, the white ore was not satisfied with only one intake. After its first round of absorbing the ordinary ores' powders and energies, it began to release another invisible net.

Struck with a thought, Ou Yangming shook his wrist to take the pile of ordinary ores and the white ore out of the interspatial bag.

As expected, the invisible net floated as the white ore actively absorbed power from the air.

Ou Yangming's face changed. In terms of this alone, the white ore had an even more notable equivalent rank than the giant head.

The giant head could also absorb spiritual power and energies, but it needed to be provided with an energy carrier. On the other hand, the white ore did not require a carrier at all. Even in the air, it could draw energy to recover or enhance its ability.

‘This is an unbelievable attribute. What magical effect will there be if it's used on a piece of equipment?'

Ou Yangming's heart pounded. This was how a powerhouse that was obsessed with smithing art would behave upon encountering a good material.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming did not act rashly. He was waiting for the white ore to recover to its peak state.

After half an hour, Ou Yangming blinked and had a strange look in his eyes.

He suddenly realized that the white ore seemed to have enlarged under his nose.

Yes, it was indeed larger than when he first took it out from Peng Yanbing's treasure depot.

Being a potent blacksmith, Ou Yangming was much more sensitive about minerals than ordinary people, so he could not have been mistaken.

What did the enlarged white ore mean?

Ou Yangming's eyelids twitched. He could sense that the white ore had stopped absorbing. The energy that it contained became cold and mysterious once more, and it attracted the giant head's attention again.

The young fellow could feel the giant head's strong desire to devour the white ore's energy, but he did not respond this time. Instead, he activated his mental conception to suppress the head's desire by force.

Subsequently, he reached out and released his Military Fire to burn the white ore.

Being burned by the Military Fire, the white ore split into 2 uneven pieces. The bigger piece was similar in size to the original white ore while the smaller piece was only the size of a person's thumb.
