Immortal Path To Heaven Chapter 94

The Blood Flight Art. Ou Yangming actually performed the Blood Flight Art in the dense force.

One would definitely be courting death by doing the same thing, but Ou Yangming's consciousness was suddenly lifted and merged with the art when Ou Yangming activated it. At the same time, his eyes underwent a huge change where almost a third of his eyeb.a.l.l.s were in a frightening blood red color.

Following that, there was also a significant change in the Blood Flight's speed, but it became much slower instead.

Yes, Ou Yangming attempted to have complete control over the Blood Flight Art's power as he wanted to control the speed as he wished.

Needless to say, it was not an easy step. Even when Ou Yangming had given his all, the speed did not decrease as much as he wanted to.

Ou Yangming flew past eight big trees by continuously s.h.i.+fting his body. It was worth noting that it was difficult to achieve that at such a high speed in such a narrow s.p.a.ce. Without his powerful mental power to support him, this was definitely unachievable.

Nonetheless, this was also his current limit. The blood light disappeared all of a sudden, and Ou Yangming was about to crash into the ninth big tree. If he had not stopped by putting his arms between the tree and his body, perhaps he would have really crashed into it.

Ou Yangming's heart was pounding. It was true that he could efficiently advance the Blood Flight Art to a greater height by practicing it here because his body would be smashed if he was careless. Under the circ.u.mstances, he must not be distracted, which allowed him to grasp the art more quickly.

That said, the downside of this method was it was too, too dangerous.

Ou Yangming was struck with an idea so he gritted his teeth and removed his waist sash, then employed the Military Fire on it.

He wanted to see if he could restore the Subst.i.tution Gem.

The instant the fire burned the gem, Ou Yangming's face changed because he sensed that it was yearning for something.

When Ou Yangming figured out what it was, he reached his hand out to press the gem.

Sure enough, at the next moment, the Qi and blood that he had replenished for his body flushed into the gem like surges of waves. With that, the human shape in the gem was quickly restored.

Ou Yangming exhaled deeply. He finally found the way to repair the Subst.i.tution Gem.

Besides, the method was not energy-consuming for him at all.

Of course, the situation would be different if someone else had carried it out.

The restoration of the Subst.i.tution Gem required energy from Qi and blood, but a person could only produce a limited amount of them. Moreover, once a person lost Qi and blood such that they were emptied, the process to compensate for the loss would be such a pain be it the difficulty or the speed.

On the contrary, Ou Yangming who had the Devouring ability only needed flesh and blood to absorb Qi and blood.

When nearly half of Ou Yangming's Qi and blood were consumed, the Subst.i.tution Gem was completely restored. He laughed for a long time, then put on the waist sash again. Next, he s.h.i.+fted his direction to advance deeper into the dense forest and absorbed the blood and flesh of animals that he stumbled upon along the way to recover what he had lost.

Once he was abundant in Qi and blood again, he activated the Blood Flight Art to practice how to control it in the extreme environment.

Although there was an obvious improvement after every practice, various issues arose due to restrictions from the environment. Consequently, Ou Yangming had crashed into trees multiple times.

Nevertheless, due to his super-powerful consciousness, he was never fatally injured no matter how serious the crashes were. Even when he was severely injured, the Subst.i.tution Gem was utilized.

Whenever Ou Yangming consumed too much Qi and blood to activate the Blood Flight Art and to restore the Subst.i.tution Gem, he hunted the animals in the forest to recover them.

With that, he went deeper and deeper inside.

Zhang Yinli was also searching in the dense forest with a gloomy face.

Ou Yangming had been cultivating while moving around in the dense forest without covering his tracks. It was notable that Zhang Yinli was a great tracker, where he could always deduce a prey's whereabouts even if there were little clues, hence he was able to track Ou Yangming. While he had not caught up to the young man yet, at least he had not lost him.

However, Zhang Yinli was feeling regretful when he was tracking Ou Yangming.

'I was being too confident.' He initially thought since the ten soldiers were unable to escape from him, there was no need for him to disguise his ident.i.ty when he attacked Ou Yangming.

In actuality, perhaps because Ou Yangming had killed his only son, he subconsciously wanted to reveal his ident.i.ty to make Ou Yangming regret what he had done.

Despite that, Ou Yangming had slipped through Zhang Yinli's fingers, and Zhang Yinli needed to find Ou Yangming as soon as possible. He had to capture him or kill him right away, and the thought of it gave him a splitting headache.

The Fire-absorbing Badge. He had to retrieve the Fire-absorbing Badge.

At that moment, the only thing Zhang Yinli was glad about was Ou Yangming seemed to be out of his mind. Instead of returning to the military camp, the blacksmith had entered the dense forest.

Zhang Yinli would obviously be at a loss if Ou Yangming had fled back to the camp by relying on the strange Blood Light Art. He could only abandon his revenge and escape far away if that was the case, but since Ou Yangming had entered the dense forest, the young fellow was courting death.

Based on Zhang Yinli's rich battle experiences, even though he had only seen the blood light one, he could already tell that it was a miraculous method that could be used to escape in an open area. The skill could be used in the dense forest, but its effect would certainly drop.

Therefore, Zhang Yinli's only hope was to catch up to Ou Yangming in the forest, capture him, and interrogate him about the Fire-absorbing Badge's whereabouts.

After taking a look behind him, Zhang Yinli confirmed that he had erased his tracks as much as he could, but was not confident about keeping it a secret from the next pursuer. 'Hopefully, luck will be on my side this time.'

As if his prayer was heard, the next morning after Zhang Yinli entered the dense forest, he suddenly stopped. He was shocked and elated when he saw Ou Yangming who was wearing

armor.

Zhang Yinli had been worrying about how long it would take for him to get to Ou Yangming, so he was not expecting the young fellow to show up in front of him.

When he looked at Ou Yangming, who was fully armored and was holding a military saber, he could not help but laugh. “Why? Do you want to exchange blows with me?” As he said that, he charged at Ou Yangming without any hesitation.

He was determined not to repeat his mistake. This time, he could not let Ou Yangming escape through the blood light.

Nonetheless, Ou Yangming took a step forward and slashed with his saber.

Zhang Yinli was taken aback. He suddenly realized that his forward path seemed to have been completely sealed by Ou Yangming's slash, and he could not evade the attack no matter how he dodged.

However, he could not be bothered to dodge it anyway. He scoffed and flapped his sleeve, which clashed with the saber.

Although his sleeves seemed soft, they were actually a unique Qimen Weapon. An attack from his sleeve was not inferior to Ou Yangming's military saber at all be it its sharpness or toughness.

“Ding…”

After a soft voice was heard, Zhang Yinli's face took on a ghastly expression. He was exasperated when his body kept moving backward.

'How does this fella have such immense

power?'

During the clash earlier, Zhang Yinli originally thought that he could defeat Ou Yangming even though Ou Yangming had the angle advantage of having attacked first. It was only when the saber and his sleeve clashed that he sensed the power on the military saber that was not inferior to his power at all.

'How can a Force Grade martial artist be able to contend with me with mere power… No, it seems like the mere power from the saber was superior to mine.'

Zhang Yinli's face changed again, and he dared not underestimate his opponent anymore. He pounced on Ou Yangming again and shook his wrist to attack with an urumi[1] that was like a venomous snake.

It could be considered a sneak attack.

Zhang Yinli had always valued his status very much, or he would not have stopped the soldiers on the main road and killed them without any disguise. The fact that he had put down his ego to sneak an attack was enough to make Ou Yangming feel proud.

Nevertheless, Zhang Yinli came to a shocking realization when Ou Yangming attacked with his saber again because the saber's angle and timing were impeccable.

It was a simple slash without fancy tricks, but the uncomplicated slash had once again put him in a difficult position.

Zhang Yinli's sneak attack was not effective at all. Instead, he made himself look like a clown because Ou Yangming suppressed him with just one slash.

Subsequently, Zhang Yinli gritted his teeth then roared. His urumi straightened at that moment, then he whipped it without hesitation at Ou Yangming's saber-light.

He would not have done this if their strengths were on par with each other, but Ou Yangming was still a Force Grade martial artist even though his power had increased. This was why Zhang Yinli dared to break through the situation by adopting such an outrageous

move.

A ma.s.sive amount of essential Qi surged like stormy waves as the urumi was whipped on the saber-light thrice. Each attack was accompanied by formidable essential Qi that could not be resisted by ordinary Force Grade martial artists.

That being said, Ou Yangming's body began swaying at that moment.

His body seemed to have merged with his surroundings, and the way his body swayed made the entire dense forest sway as well. In fact, the branches and plants around were swaying slightly as though they were following his body.

Zhang Yinli instantly felt that his power had been removed from him. His power was easily stripped off by the mysterious power that became one with nature.

There was a split second when he experienced a misconception of being terrified.

It was not a human in Force Grade boundary who exchanged blows with him earlier, but the whole world.

Zhang Yinlin staggered backward with a terrible look on his face as he uttered, “The integration of Heaven and man!”
