Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 827 – Lowering Their Dignities

The winter winds blew and gave penetrating chills.

Nonetheless, the strong cold intents could not threaten cultivators much.

When the flying carpet flew past the sky, an invisible and gentle air wall was naturally stimulated to block off the cold winds at the border, hence n.o.body on the carpet was affected.

Ou Yangming maneuvered the flying carpet rather slowly. Apart from the calm old macaque, Ni Yinghong and the 2 other ladies kept quiet and looked slightly distracted.

After witnessing Multi-armed King Kong overcoming 6 Heavenly Thunderbolts to become a Venerable One, their souls were heavily impacted.

Before witnessing the event, no matter how other people described it to them, they could not feel how they would if they were to watch it in person. Once they sensed the Heavenly Thunderbolts' mightiness and the aftereffects from a decent distance away, the feeling became entirely different.

There was no way to describe their feelings at the moment because the thunderbolts seemed to still be rumbling endlessly in their seas of consciousness.

As the flying carpet descended slowly, they finally returned to the peak where Ou Yangming resided.

It was then when the 3 beautiful ladies, whose minds seemed to have wandered off, finally came back to their senses. Ni Yinghong cast a complicated look at Ou Yangming and expressed, “Lil' Ming, thanks.”

Ou Yangming smiled and asked, “Why are you thanking me? This is what I should do.”

After hearing his response, the 3 ladies were agitated as indescribable feelings lingered in their hearts.

The advancement into a Venerable One boundary was the most important and crucial thing to every living being. No, in fact, it was extremely important to every sect.

Having one more or one less Venerable One in a sect were entirely different things.

Therefore, each time a top-grade Spiritualist began to advance into a Venerable One, his or her sect would certainly keep it a secret and would wish that n.o.body in the world would find out at all.

If one wanted to observe how the Heavenly Thunderbolts would strike?

Not to mention that the 3 ladies were not even Spiritualists yet, even if they were top-grade Spiritualists, they could not have gotten such an honor under normal situations.

Even so, Ou Yangming brought them along but neither the old macaque, Multi-armed King Kong, nor the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One objected to it. The 3 ladies did not know what price the young fellow had to pay for this to happen, but they knew it could not have happened so easily.

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh when he noticed the ladies' expressions. “Elder Sister Ying, is there still a need for us to make things very clear between us?”

Ni Yinghong looked deeply at him, then she beamed. Her smile was so gorgeous as though a vivid color was added to the world.

“Yes, there's no need to make things so clear indeed.” Ni Yinghong paused for a moment before she asked, “Elder Sister Wu, Elder Sister Bai, am I right?”

Wu Hanning and Bai s.h.i.+xue looked at each other without saying a word, but crafty smiles could be seen in their eyes.

Ou Yangming furrowed his eyebrows as he could naturally tell that it was not as simple as it sounded.

If he were to exchange blows with powerful enemies or smith pieces of superb equipment, he would have rolled up his sleeves and acted right away without blinking at all. On the other hand, it would be against the young fellow's power if he was asked to figure out what ladies were thinking.

As such, he could only smile bitterly as he was helpless. He looked at the old macaque to ask for help.

Over here, it seemed like the old fellow was the only one that could help him.

The old macaque laughed out loud and said, “We've arrived, so let's get off now.” It looked at the sky and smiled with its eyes squinted. “This winter isn't so cold after all.”

Ou Yangming immediately noted, “Elder Macaque, it's not that this winter isn't cold, but your heart is warm.”

The old macaque laughed out loud. Its laughter spread far and wide, and it was clear that it was cheerful and proud.

“Elder Macaque, congratulations.”

Yuqi the Venerable One's voice was heard coming from afar. He actually walked out from Ou Yangming's residence, and he was accompanied by Mao Jianbi—a top-grade Spiritualist.

As they strode toward the others, Mao Jianbi suddenly stopped and bowed at Ou Yangming with respect. “Greetings, Master Ou.”

Ou Yangming was dumbfounded. He had known Mao Jianbi for a long time. Before this, the great elder had always treated him with regard but was never this respectful. When the young fellow glanced at Yuqi the Venerable One, who was stroking his beard with a smile, he suddenly understood what was going on.

He grinned and replied to the great elder, “Great Elder Mao, you don't need to be so polite.”

Mao Jianbi said without any hesitation, “Master Ou, you can just call my name. The term “great elder” sounds too terrifying to me now.”

He was a top-grade Spiritualist and a top-notch powerhouse that meant what he said in the Beast King Sect. Nevertheless, he was somewhat flas.h.i.+ng a flattering smile at Ou Yangming at the moment.

Ou Yangming knew very well Mao Jianbi was moved after knowing that Multi-armed King Kong had successfully gone through the disaster.

Many people desired to advance into a Venerable One, thus some would try to increase their success rates regardless of the costs. Since the Thunderbolt-resistant Suit and Earthly Formation Boards could withstand 6 Heavenly Thunderbolts, one could imagine Mao Jianbi being willing to humble himself for them.

The young fellow chuckled and responded, “Alright, Brother Mao. Since you say that, I won't be polite with you anymore.”

Mao Jianbi was elated. Given how shrewd he was, he could not have been seen through so easily, but he could not be too bothered for the sake of the unprecedented Thunderbolt-resistant Suit.

Yuqi the Venerable One's eyes flickered as he glanced at Ni Yinghong and the ladies and asked, “Have you seen the books that I picked for you?”

Other than Bai s.h.i.+xue, Ni Yinghong and Wu Hanning answered sternly, “I've read them all.”

“You must remember everything after you read about them, and you must practice hard without being too relaxed.” The Venerable One nodded. His eyes were as sharp as arrows as he added, “You've witnessed King Kong getting through the disaster today. As long as you cultivate hard, your days will surely come.”

The faces of Ni Yinghong and Wu Hanning changed. They looked overjoyed.

'Our days will surely come? Does that mean that we might become Venerable Ones too?'

Bai s.h.i.+xue was slightly stunned. She could not help but cast complicated looks at the 2 other ladies.

Being Ou Yangming's proxy, she had started operating near the Beast King Sect and made some achievements, but those achievements were built on him. On the other hand, Ni Yinghong and Wu Hanning had also borrowed the young fellow's power, but they were constantly improving themselves. If they could only day advance into Venerable Ones, it would be a long-term wealth for them.

Yuqi the Venerable One glanced half-intentionally at Bai s.h.i.+xue and stated, “Miss Bai, it's much easier to cultivate in the Spiritual Realm than in the lower realm. The Beast King Sect has countless resources, so you can also give it a go if you want to.”

Bai s.h.i.+xue looked up abruptly, and her heart pounded hard.

It was as if her wish had come true. She knew this would be the best opportunity, and she would really lag if she did not seize it this time.

With that, Bai s.h.i.+xue took a deep breath and responded, “Thank you, Venerable One, I'll work hard for sure.”

Yuqi the Venerable One smiled as he was pleased. “Alright, I'll be guiding you in the future, but if you don't work hard…” His eyes looked fierce as he continued, “Don't blame me for punis.h.i.+ng you mercilessly.”

“Yes.”

The 3 ladies bowed at the same time. They were all agitated.

It was worth noting that having a Venerable One's pointers throughout one's cultivation path was something that many people dared not imagine at all.

“Hehe, Lil' Ming, you're back. How's King Kong?” Old Craftsman strode out from the courtyard.

After cultivating for some time, although his martial arts cultivation base was still insignificant to Ou Yangming and the rest, his physique had changed drastically.

Not far behind Old Craftsman, the goshawk, Big Yellow, Wu Yuanwei, and the others were waiting. The only thing was that they dared not get any closer because Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque were present.

After all, not all of them had the guts to act as they wished in front of the Venerable Ones. Other than Old Craftsman, who was regarded with special respect by Yuqi the Venerable One and the others, the rest were still timid in front of Venerable Ones, such that they dared not breathe heavily at all.

Ou Yangming's eyes lit up. He quickly approached Old Craftsman and asked, “Old Man, when did you ever need to worry when I handle affairs?”

Old Craftsman looked snappily at him and questioned, “When could I ever count on you?”

The young fellow stammered and was helpless. “Wasn't I young back then? I've grown up now.”

“Have you become disobedient now that you've grown up?” Old Craftsman scoffed and no longer bothered about him. “Big Brother Yu, Big Brother Macaque, you're all here.” He asked with bright eyes, “I'm almost done practicing the fist technique that you pa.s.sed on to me previously. How about I show you here?”

Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and smiled apologetically at the Venerable Ones. “Old Man, they're Venerable Ones and have many businesses to deal with…”

“Uhm, Master Ou, you shouldn't wrong us.” Yuqi the Venerable One waved his hand. “The sect's affairs are naturally handled by our disciples, so I'm actually very free.” He smiled with his eyes squinted. “Younger Brother, you learned the fist art so quickly? Come, let us see how much you've mastered.”

Old Craftsman nodded and had a grave look on his face at once.

The old man was also stubborn. Once he decided to learn martial arts, he became completely immersed in it. If not, he might not have cultivated so quickly even if Yuqi the Venerable One fed him with countless restoratives.

At this time, Old Craftsman got into a martial-art squat and wielded his fists on the peak.

A Yin Grade martial artist was not considered anything in the Spiritual Realm, but one would be qualified to join a sect in the lower realm.

Given how serious Old Craftsman was performing the fist technique, he really looked the part and had somewhat become mature in it.

That said, Ou Yangming had a rather odd look on his face, so much so that it was too much of a ghastly sight for him to see.

Even a Spiritualist like him could not bear to watch the fist technique anymore, let alone the Venerable Ones.

Who knew, when Ou Yangming looked at Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque, he was struck dumb.

Those 2 powerhouses were not displeased at all. In fact, they looked serious and kept nodding while they watched as though it was an enjoyable moment for them.

Ou Yangming was stupefied and speechless.

'Aren't you lowering your dignities too much!'
