Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 781

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The cold wind was spine-chilling as mists enveloped the peak. When the plants swayed and the green wave undulated, it really showed the profoundness of the Beast King Sect.

Nonetheless, at the peak where the Beast King Sect's top-notch combat powers were gathered, there was an extremely strange feeling.

“Master Kurong…”

Several exclaims were heard at the same time.

Yuqi the Venerable One and the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One looked at Tiandao the Venerable One at the same time. The powerful Venerable One from Mount Wuzhi looked embarra.s.sed. He cupped his hands and them and nodded apologetically.

It was then when everyone realized that Tiandao the Venerable One had not stayed put out of consideration for the Beast King Sect's image. It turned out that he knew who the white-robed elder was all along, which was why he watched the fight quietly on the side.

Master Kurong descended slowly and nodded at everyone. “I acted too recklessly—please forgive me.”

Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque exchanged glances and were helpless.

If anyone else had acted so mysterious to deceive everyone, they would not have let this matter slip away. Moreover, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One was also present. If the 3 of them joined hands, anyone would have been fearful. Even so, Master Kurong had a special ident.i.ty. Not only was he Danzhou's greatest human powerhouse, but he was also the best blacksmith. Given his background as a part of Mount Wuzhi as well, even if the other Venerable Ones were displeased, they would not have expressed it.

The old macaque sighed and said, “Master Kurong, you finally… Left the mountain.”

At this time, the white mist around Master Kurong had slowly dispersed, revealing his thin body. Without the earth-shattering fight earlier, n.o.body would have imagined unbelievable surging powers to be hidden inside the thin body.

“Brother Macaque, we haven't seen each other in such a long time, but you're full of energy and became younger,” Master Kurong lamented.

“Hmph, what do you mean that I've become younger? Other people might not know, but don't you know best?” The old macaque shook its head as it was displeased. “If it wasn't for that… How could I have the energy to be entangled in a fight with you?”

Master Kurong could not help but laugh as the old macaque was as stubborn as before. Nevertheless, this was the exact reason it kept its promise all this time and never left the Beast King Sect.

Yuqi the Venerable One went forward and saluted Master Kurong from a distance away. “Greetings, Master Kurong.”

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One was standing where it was, but it also did a fist salutation without delaying any time.

As for Ou Yangming, he was surprised. He had not seen these 2 Venerable Ones treating anyone with such respect, hence he could not help but guess Master Kurong's origin.

The old macaque rolled its eyes and questioned, “Kurong, if you were going to come, you should just come. Why did you have to hide like that? Aren't you ashamed about being so secretive even after you were spotted?”

Master Kurong did not bother about the reprimand at all. He responded with a smile, “I've come to meet the Phoenixes' messenger.” He looked at Ou Yangming with bright eyes. A grin could be seen on his thin face as he remarked, “Seeing is believing, but I found out after seeing him that he's much more than what the rumors say.”

Ou Yangming had become incredibly thick-faced after countless experiences, but he flushed after hearing the comment. It was a rare scene.

After all, the person that made the remark was not an ordinary person, but a supreme powerhouse that could resist 3 Venerable Ones and was respected by them.

Therefore, even one that thought highly of oneself could not be able to remain calm.

Old Craftsman was the only one that was smiling on the side. He would be happy whenever someone praised Ou Yangming. As for whether the praises were exaggerated, they would be none of his concern.

The old macaque furrowed its eyebrows and questioned, “Kurong, if you wanted to meet him, meet him openly. Why did you have to act so mysterious? Hmph, do you think that the Beast King Sect can be easily bullied?”

Master Kurong chuckled. “I hid when I came, but you didn't notice me at all. On the other hand, I couldn't hide from Master Ou.” He paused for a while before he added, “Besides, without the fight earlier, how could you have seen the strike in the void?”

The old macaque was stunned and speechless.

It turned to look at Ou Yangming and was puzzled. Master Kurong's hiding skill was unusually mysterious, so much so that the 3 Venerable Ones did not notice him at all, but he could not hide from Ou Yangming. It would be fine if that was all, but the old macaque shuddered at the thought of the exceptionally profound spear skill with path intent that was performed by the young fellow during their fight.

Needless to say, the old macaque did not s.h.i.+ver due to fear; it was indescribably shocked.

It even wished that it could be shocked a few more times.

Yuqi the Venerable One looked deeply at Ou Yangming and laughed. “Master Ou's a G.o.d-favored one with unequaled potential, and he can always do the unexpected. Hehe, I've witnessed many incidents, so I'm not too surprised anymore.”

The 10,000 Beasts Venerable One fell silent for a brief moment before it nodded in agreement. “That's right.”

It only uttered two words, but its voice was as solid as a towering mountain, thus it could not be ignored at all.

Master Kurong was shocked. “Seeing how you praise him highly, looks like I really underestimated the current Phoenixes' messenger.”

Ou Yangming frowned. The Venerable Ones had displayed notable combat powers and attracted everyone's attention, but he did not have too much of a favorable impression of them anymore. Today was the day he reunited with Old Craftsman and the 3 ladies, so he had prepared a celebration. Now that the Venerable Ones interrupted, the atmosphere was gone.

If Ou Yangming was not sure that he could not defeat them, he would have wanted to drag them away.

Yuqi the Venerable One's eyes flickered. He had spent the longest time with Ou Yangming as compared to the other Venerable Ones, so he guessed the young fellow's thought right away. He cleared his throat and noted, “Today's the day Master Ou reunited with Younger Brother Old Craftsman, so the Beast King Sect prepared a grand celebration. Please come with me to take your seat.” He thought to himself, ‘Where did Ou Yangming's dear one get his name from? It's too hard to p.r.o.nounce his name.'

“A celebration?” Tiandao the Venerable One had a rather odd look on his face. “Brother Yu, Young Brother Old Craftsman's blessed to be valued by the Beast King Sect.”

He cursed internally, ‘I didn't hesitate to humble myself to acknowledge Old Craftsman as a brother because I wanted to get close to Ou Yangming. However, you're more thick-faced than me to hold a celebration for someone from the lower realm. You really embarra.s.s the Humans from Danzhou. Ah, why didn't I think about this? If I thought about it, would I have done it…'

Tiandao the Venerable One pondered seriously and sighed at last because he realized that he would have done it without a doubt.

This was not only because Master Kurong managed to prolong his life with the Eternal Pill but most importantly, Tiandao the Venerable One also yearned for the pill as much as the others do.

Even if he had to lower himself to flatter the young fellow for an Eternal Pill, it would not be too much.

“Brother Tiandao, you misunderstood me.” Yuqi the Venerable One laughed. He stroked his beard and explained, “Back when the Insects' 3 Venerable Ones joined hands to attack the Beast King Sect, they ended up accomplis.h.i.+ng nothing and were even killed by a phoenix powerhouse, so it's definitely worthy of a celebration. The only thing is that we had something important to do at that time, so we couldn't hold the celebration. Now that everything's settled, we can finally enjoy ourselves.” He nodded at Old Craftsman and smiled. “As it turns out, Younger Brother came today, so let's combine the joyful events and throw a huge celebration.”

Old Craftsman nodded in a daze and looked at Ou Yangming in confusion.

After seeing the shocking fight just now, he realized that the Venerable Ones were insurmountable figures, but they took the initiative to address him as a brother. The old man was not a fool, so he knew it was because of Lil' Ming.

Ou Yangming cleared his throat and said, “Old Man, since Yuqi the Venerable One prepared a celebration for you, you should go and enjoy it.”

Old Craftsman nodded after some thought. He could not trust other people, but he would never doubt the young fellow. Furthermore, everything in the Spiritual Realm was different from the lower realm; he had learned to let go.

Yuqi the Venerable One stepped forward to Old Craftsman's side and patted his shoulder as he chuckled. “Young Brother, let's go together, let's go together. Hey…” All of a sudden, the Venerable One paused as if he had just recognized the old man. He scanned the man from head to toe with an unusual look in his eyes.

Ou Yangming raised his eyebrow and recalled something. He instantly shut his mouth.

Not to mention Old Craftsman, who was taken aback, but Master Kurong and the others were also bewildered. They thought, ‘What's Yuqi the Venerable One doing?'

After a brief moment, Yuqi the Venerable One asked with a grave expression, “Younger Brother, you've never learned martial arts before, am I right?”

Old Craftsman nodded subconsciously. “Yes, my body isn't suitable for martial arts.”

Yuqi the Venerable One frowned and commented, “Your physique's the best foundation for martial arts cultivation. Hmph, who said such nonsense? That person must've been blind!”

Tiandao the Venerable One widened his eyes at Old Craftsman and almost puked blood when he looked away after some time. He cursed internally, ‘How dare you, Yuqi? Which part of this old fella shows you that he has a fresh and unordinary physique?' He turned to look at Master Kurong but noticed a faint smile in the master's eyes.

The Venerable One came to a sudden realization, so he could not help but shake his head. When he heard about the celebration, he thought that Yuqi the Venerable One had already reached the limit of being thick-faced. Who knew, he realized that there was no limit to being thick-faced as one could always become more thick-faced.

‘Judging from the way you're acting, how are you anything like a Venerable One…'

Old Craftsman was stupefied and in disbelief. “Me? Suitable to practice martial arts?”

“Yes.” Yuqi the Venerable One struck his chest and stated, “Younger Brother, if you trust me, how about you practice martial arts with me? Hmph, you might not become a Venerable One, but you'll likely become a Spiritualist.”

Old Craftsman's eyes slowly lit up. He took a deep breath and nodded with all his might. “Okay.”

When he uttered the word, he felt refreshed as if his body had also become lighter.

Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and secretly gave Yuqi the Venerable One a thumbs-up.

‘A Venerable One is a Venerable One indeed. I should learn from them to be more knowledgeable.'
