Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 1197: The Ice Jade Fruit

The Mystic Ice Jade Fruit was the treasure that Ou Yangming needed the most.

He had come to the Zhenwu Continent from thousands of kilometers away. He had even sneaked into the Mystic Sky Sect for this treasure.

Qian Chongyou understood what Ou Yangming meant. He carefully took out a box made of ancient wood from his interspatial bracelet.

The box was engraved with ancient patterns. It looked like they had been there for a long time. Qian Chongyou said in a deep voice, “Sir, the Ice Jade Fruit is inside. Sir Sect Leader has asked me to bring it with me.”

As he said that, he handed the box over.

Ou Yangming’s face was full of smiles. He had worked hard for so long and finally got this thing.

Opening the box, there was a crystal clear fruit inside. On its white skin, there were some furry little thorns.

“It’s indeed the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit.”

Ou Yangming took a look and could confirm that the thing inside the box was almost exactly the same as the one described in the Crimson Ruler’s book. In the Truth of Alchemy, he had also seen the appearance of the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit.

Now that the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit and the Seven-colored Heavenly Fragrant Flower were available, the innate conditions for refining the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill had been completed ahead of time.

“Thank you…” Ou Yangming took the box and said politely.

“You’re welcome, sir. This is my duty,” Steward Qian replied politely.

Seeing that there was nothing else, Qian Chongyou took his leave. Li Daoyi asked someone to send him off. This courtyard was the property of the Seven Stars Pavilion, so there were a few Seven Stars Pavilion disciples here.

After Qian Chongyou left, Li Daoyi looked at Ou Yangming and asked, “Master Ou, do you have any plans?”

Once Ou Yangming smithed the Acquired Taoist Tool, Li Daoyi also changed the way he addressed him. A blacksmith of such a level would be respected even by a third-step powerhouse. Naturally, Li Daoyi did not dare to be careless. Moreover, the young fellow’s strength was far from what he could compare with.

“I plan to go to a place to settle down for a period,” Ou Yangming said in a deep voice.

Li Daoyi’s eyes were filled with a strange light. “I wonder if you have any requirements for this place, Master Ou?”

Ou Yangming smiled and said, “It’s better to be quiet and not too chaotic. I plan to bring a few friends here to settle down.”

“There’s a city at the foot of the Seven Stars Mountain. The environment there is very good. If you don’t mind, you can go and take a look.”

The city at the foot of the Seven Stars Mountain was under the management of the Seven Stars Pavilion. Li Daoyi could not have no selfish thoughts. After all, he had met an expert like Ou Yangming, who was also a blacksmith master. As long as he was not an idiot, he would firmly seize this opportunity.

It was worth noting that the Seven Stars Pavilion was only a first-rate sect. Among the first-rate sects, it could only be considered average. It was far from being comparable to an influential first-rate sect like the Heavenly Star Mansion. In a sect like the Seven Stars Pavilion, the most powerful one was a powerhouse in the second step of the laws like Li Daoyi.

If Li Daoyi could become close to Ou Yangming, they would have hope of surpassing the Heavenly Star Mansion. After all, the young fellow was not only a powerhouse in the second step but also a smithing master who could refine Taoist Tools and was almost extinct in the Great Wide World.

“Alright, let’s go and take a look first.” Ou Yangming knew what Li Daoyi was thinking, and he did not refuse. He knew the strength of the Seven Stars Pavilion. In their territory, it would be much less troublesome.

Having been in the Great Wide World for so long, Ou Yangming also planned to settle down here. The Zhenwu Continent was certainly the best choice. This was the Humans’ base, and the spiritual Qi here was more abundant than in other places.

He was not the strongest in the Great Wide World, but he was definitely a top-tier existence. Since he had the ability to protect people, it was time to settle down and bring Old Craftsman and the others up from the Spiritual Realm.

After resting for half a day, Ou Yangming and Li Daoyi left the Zhongzhou Main City. The Seven Stars Pavilion was not far away. During the last disaster involving the Ancient Demons, the governor of Zhongzhou had immediately thought of asking the Seven Stars Pavilion for help.

Ou Yangming rode on Li Daoyi’s flying boat. After a few hours, they could see the mountains in the distance.

The Seven Stars Mountain was the name of a mountain range in Zhongzhou. It was made up of 7 huge mountains, which were the peaks of the Seven Stars Pavilion.

It was already late when they arrived here. Under Li Daoyi’s suggestion, the 2 of them did not go to Starlight City but went to the Seven Stars Mountain first.

“Greetings, Great Elder.”

“Greetings, Great Elder.”

…

Li Daoyi’s status in the sect was very high. Along the way, as long as people saw the 2 of them, everyone would respectfully bow.

A powerhouse in the second step was unquestionably the strongest existence in a first-rate sect and was also the core strength of the sect.

In the evening, the Seven Stars Pavilion’s head personally held a banquet to celebrate Li Daoyi’s return.

All the elders of the Seven Stars Pavilion had arrived. Li Daoyi sat at the head seat with Ou Yangming next to him. The position of the head of the Seven Stars Pavilion was still below the young fellow.

In the beginning, there were still some people who were dissatisfied. Li Daoyi was the core leader of the sect, so it was normal for him to occupy the first position. No one knew what identity that young fellow had, but he usurped the host and occupied a position that was even better than their head. This made many elders of the Seven Stars Pavilion somewhat dissatisfied.

Of course, no one mentioned it. After all, that young fellow had come back with the great elder, so no one dared to provoke him.

The banquet was a little depressing, and many people were filled with resentment. Seeing this scene, Li Daoyi laughed bitterly and asked loudly, “Do you know who this person beside me is?”

Everyone shook their heads. Ou Yangming had made a name for himself in the ruins and overpowered the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion but only those from Zhongzhou had seen him.

The head of the Seven Stars Pavilion was a scholarly-looking scholar. A gentle smile flashed across his face as he asked, “Great Elder, could this young brother be a young genius from another clan?”

Li Daoyi smiled and said, “If I were to say Master Ou’s name, I’m afraid that you wouldn’t know him. If I were to say his code name, you’ll surely know him.”

“What code name?”

Everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity. ‘Could it be that this young fellow who stole the limelight has an extraordinary identity?’

Li Daoyi chuckled and uttered, “Master Ou’s No. 999.”

“No. 999?”

Everyone was stunned as if they had thought of something…

Afterward, countless gazes were focused on Ou Yangming. ‘No. 999? Could it be that mysterious powerhouse from the ruins?’

‘That mysterious powerhouse who ranked first and surpassed the master of Heavenly Star Mansion and many other powerhouses in the second step. Isn’t he No. 999?’

Everyone was shocked. That was a famous person of the human race. They did not think that he would come to the Seven Stars Pavilion.

“I see. Why didn’t you say so earlier, Great Elder!” The Seven Stars Pavilion’s head was surprised. He took a step forward and respectfully said, “Greetings, Master Ou.”

“Greetings, Master Ou.”

In an instant, the resentment in everyone’s hearts disappeared. No. 999 was a legendary existence. No one knew his strength, but he was definitely in the second step. Even if he was sitting above Li Daoyi, no one would be dissatisfied now.

Seeing the changes in everyone’s expressions, Li Daoyi smiled even more brightly. He once again said something shocking, “Lord Ou’s also a blacksmith master. That’s why I call him Master Ou.”

Everyone was stupefied again.

There were very few blacksmiths, and even fewer people could be called masters. They did not expect this young fellow to be a blacksmith master. ‘What kind of monstrous talent does he have?’

Of course, everyone thought that the young fellow’s identity as a blacksmith master was not on par with his identity as the 999th powerhouse.

The status of a smithing master could not be compared to a powerhouse in the second step. Furthermore, that mysterious powerhouse was not an ordinary powerhouse in the second step.

Li Daoyi leisurely added, “Master Ou isn’t a simple blacksmith master. His smithing skills are beyond your imaginations.”

His words once again attracted everyone’s attention. Everyone looked at each other, not understanding why the great elder emphasized this.

“Could it be that Master Ou can smith a Fine Grade magic weapon?” Someone joked.

Those who could smith Fine Grade magic weapons were qualified to be called blacksmith masters. To the people present, being able to smith such a piece of equipment was an incredible feat.

Li Daoyi did not answer. He stretched out his hand, and a shining silver sword appeared in his hand.

He looked at the sword with excitement in his eyes. He said in a low voice, “This sword was smithed by Master Ou.”

“Is there anything different about this sword?”

Nobody could tell from its appearance. Everyone released their mental powers, intending to check it out. Could it be that this sword had reached Fine Grade?

Despite that, no one could see the equivalent rank of the sword.

The silver sword was like a sponge, absorbing everyone’s mental powers, but it did not return any information, so it could not be checked.

Could not be checked?

The head of the Seven Stars Pavilion was the first to notice something, and he suddenly stood up. He looked at the longsword in Li Daoyi’s hand in shock and stuttered, “Could it be… This sword is… An Acquired Taoist Tool…”

His words sounded like thunder. The others thought that there was something wrong with their mental powers but only after being reminded did they understand.

“Could it really be an Acquired Taoist Tool? My mental power can’t detect its level at all.”

“Mine neither.”

“Same here…”

“Mine…”

Only then did everyone realize that everyone was facing the same problem

It seemed that it was not a problem with their mental powers but this treasure sword.

An Acquired Taoist Tool!

They had actually seen an Acquired Taoist Tool.

Li Daoyi nodded and said, “That’s right. This sword is an Acquired Taoist Tool. It was customized for me by Master Ou.”

“Boom!”

Everyone only felt that their heads were muddled. Not only did they see a legendary Acquired Taoist Tool, but they also saw the person who could smith Acquired Taoist Tools.

“Truly a heaven-gifted genius! Master Ou, let me toast to you!”

The head of the Seven Stars Pavilion raised his cup on the table and said respectfully.

“Master Ou, we’ll toast to you too…”

All the elders stood up at the same time. Everyone changed their attitudes, and the hall instantly became lively.

Ou Yangming smiled and raised his cup on the table.
