Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 569: The Peak Of Common Grade

[Item: Horn-strike Helmet]

[Equivalent Rank: Magic Tool, Common Grade, Rank Five]

[Attributes: Sharpness +25, Toughness +25, Durability 25]

[Wish-fulfilling Degree: 5]

These were the real attributes of the Horn-strike Helmet smithed by Ou Yangming. It was a legitimate magic tool at the peak of Common Grade.

Nonetheless, the spirit beasts were dubious when they heard Ou Yangming announce the magic tool’s property. ‘Is this human smithing master mistaken?’

Needless to say, Fat Antelope and Big Yellow had plenty of confidence in Ou Yangming. The latter had followed the young fellow for a long time, hence it was naturally aware of his potential and forte; the former had not spent a long time with them, but it was still confident in him because of the equipment set that he had smithed for it.

Apart from magic tools, he also smithed an extremely rare piece of Skill Equipment.

Since Master Ou could smith a piece of Skill Equipment, it would not be too surprising if he was slightly more amazing at smithing pieces of equipment with White Slate Attributes.

Many spirit beasts below the high platform exchanged glances. If it was not because Ou Yangming had smithed a magic tool of Common Grade Rank Four, they would have jeered at him to shoo him off the stage long ago.

The nondescript spirit beast was stunned for some time. It accepted the helmet and checked it out before it turned around and asked, “Master Lin, can you appraise this for me?”

‘Since you don’t trust me, why did you ask me to smith this for you?’ Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and was secretly infuriated. Nevertheless, when he looked at Lin Feifeng, he decided to show him some respect.

After all, the high platform belonged to Lin Feifeng. It was true that Ou Yangming was invited up to the platform, and he received pointers from the blacksmith, so he must not steal the show.

Lin Feifeng nodded and carefully inspected the helmet in his hands.

In actuality, he was as shocked and as doubtful as the spirit beasts below the platform.

Ou Yangming had only understood smithing art’s simplest theories due to his guidance. According to his estimation, as gifted as the young fellow was, he would need to put in enough time and energy to successfully put them into practice.

At the very least, it would take several months to a year.

Even so, Ou Yangming surprised Lin Feifeng too much. He smithed a piece of Rank Four equipment in the blink of an eye, and he even produced a magic tool at the peak of Common Grade after that.

When the pieces of equipment smithed kept becoming a level higher than the one before, it was reasonable for Lin Feifeng to be in disbelief.

Despite that, he was more superior to the spirit beasts in the sense that he had the ability to identify a piece of equipment’s specific attributes.

After accepting the helmet, he studied it seriously like never before.

Every spirit beast focused on him as though they were waiting for his judgment, but he disregarded the looks on him and only paid attention to the appraisal.

Lin Feifeng finally looked up after about 8 minutes, and he looked rather exhausted. It seemed like the appraisal had used up too much of his power but in reality, it was not because he had consumed too much energy, but because he was mentally tired.

‘A magic tool at the peak of Common Grade Rank Five—the equipment is indeed a magic tool at the peak of Common Grade Rank Five.

‘But you’ve just learned these a while ago, so how could you have smithed a magic tool of this level? How can we take this?’

With an indescribable feeling, Lin Feifeng inhaled deeply and uttered seriously to the spirit beast, “The peak of Rank Five.”

“What?”

“I said—the peak of Rank Five, a Common Grade magic tool. Do you understand?” Lin Feifeng responded snappily.

“Ah, I understand, I understand!” The spirit beast turned around to bow at Ou Yangming, then it carried the helmet and jumped off the high platform before it scurried away.

Ou Yangming shook his head. ‘That fella’s wealthy, but it makes too much fuss about nothing too easily.’

‘Since this event is held by the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One, it must’ve issued some rules. If any of the spirit beasts becomes obsessed and has improper thoughts, how could it let them be?’

Having said that, Ou Yangming could only say this because he was a spectator. If he was directly involved, he would not end well too.

“Master Ou, please smith the same helmet for me too!” Another voice was heard as a spirit beast jumped up to the high platform.

“No, I was here first, so I should go first!”

“Get lost and line up behind!”

Angry voices were heard one after another as many spirit beasts began to have conflicts with one another. As such, there was slowly a heated atmosphere in the venue.

Ou Yangming and Lin Feifeng looked at each other with grave looks on their faces.

Although it was unlikely for them to be targeted, they would also be in danger if the spirit beasts were so enraged that they went mad.

Just as the situation was about to go out of control, a mountainous figure suddenly landed from mid-air.

“Boom...”

An enormous, 5-meters-tall beast landed hard on the ground like a gigantic rock.

Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up. It was a humongous king kong with 6 arms, and it released a threatening aura as it scanned its surroundings with a pair of large eyes.

The chaos stopped the moment the king kong appeared. Even though some of the spirit beasts were about to lose their minds, they came back to their senses as they saw the sturdy figure and cast flattering smiles at it.

“Why are you yelling and making so much noise? Did you forget the rules?” The Six-armed Giant Beast questioned furiously.

“Sir, please calm down. We wanted this human master to smith pieces of equipment for us, but we were too impatient and ended up disturbing you instead,” the spirit beasts answered one after another.

The Six-armed Giant Beast looked at them in confusion. “Smith pieces of equipment for you? Why are you fighting over that?!”

Many spirit beasts responded to it in a servile manner, but they cursed internally.

‘They’re not pieces of ordinary equipment, but magic tools at the peak of Common Grade Rank Five.’

Spirit beasts were not rare on the 10,000 Beasts Ridge but in reality, they were separated into different grades. Other than low-grade, middle-grade, and high-grade, there were also top-grade ones.

Most of the spirit beasts that wanted to obtain a suitable piece of equipment at the Trading Meet were low-grade spirit beasts. Given their strengths, being able to acquire a magic tool at the peak of Common Grade Rank Five was the best treatment they would receive among their peers.

It was something that could be discovered but not sought, thus they would regret it forever if they missed their chance.

Of course, they dared not tell the Six-armed Giant Beast the truth.

The Six-armed Giant Beast swung one of its massive arms. Its arm was not as considerable as that of Multi-armed King Kong, but it carried great momentum that suppressed the low-grade spirit beasts right away.

“Line up now. If you cause any more trouble, I’ll throw you outside to be eaten up!” The Six-armed Giant Beast widened its eyes and threatened the spirit beasts.

While the spirit beasts were strong and violent earlier, they curbed their temper and became obedient in front of an even more powerful spirit beast. Ou Yangming found it strange, and he thought, ‘These spirit beasts are too good-tempered. Even if they know they’re not a match against it, they can’t be so frightened, can they?’

Lin Feifeng chuckled and noted, “Brother Ou, the 10,000 Beasts Venerable One’s enforcer is here, so we don’t need to worry anymore.”

Ou Yangming nodded and fixed his gaze on the Six-armed Giant Beast. ‘I wonder if this fella’s Multi-armed King Kong’s younger brother or younger sister...’

Under the big fellow’s arrangement, everything was in order; the clamorous spirit beasts became as compliant as they could be. However, once they lined up, they were slightly dumbfounded.

This was because apart from Fat Antelope and spirit beasts that were only here to spectate, the others—even the ones that made appointments with Lin Feifeng before this—lined up in front of Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming’s face changed. “Brother Lin...”

Lin Feifeng waved his hand and grinned. “Brother Ou, this is very normal. They put in a lot of effort to gather so many ores so of course, they’ll want better items, but...” He announced loudly after a pause, “I told you that you’ll have to give Brother Ou twice the reward you would give me, so figure it out yourselves.”

The spirit beasts in the line instantly became hesitant.

In the lower realm, spirit beasts were naturally top-notch powerhouses, but they were not considered much in the Spiritual Realm. Those that were mountain lords were all right, but those that roamed about were definitely embarrassingly lacking in wealth if they did not stumble upon chance encounters.

As such, the doubled reward condition was unacceptable for many unfortunate spirit beasts.

Ou Yangming cleared his throat and said, “It was an unexpected event that I was able to smith a Common Grade Rank Five tool. You don’t think I can achieve that standard every time, do you? Even if you provide 6 sets of materials, I’ll stop once I smith anything above Rank Two. Are you... Still willing to take the risk?”

Many spirit beasts were struck dumb at first. After making calculations in their heads, some of them finally left the line and approached Lin Feifeng.

They cast flattering smiles at him as they were afraid that he would reject them because he had a grudge against them.

Who knew, Lin Feifeng simply shook his head and began to smith according to their requests.

Honestly, Lin Feifeng would have been envious and aggrieved if someone else stole his customers. That said, he was the one that taught Ou Yangming smithing art, but the young fellow surpassed him in a split second.

Besides, he also noticed something else—every piece of equipment smithed by Ou Yangming had a Wish-fulfilling Degree of 5.

He could not bring himself to be jealous over the fact at all.

After all, how much courage would one need to compare oneself with such a creature?

As a normal person, he made a normal choice too.

The Six-armed Giant Beast widened its eyes upon seeing what was going on. It tugged at a spirit beast and questioned, “What Common Grade Rank Five?”

“Sir, that human master just smithed a magic tool at the peak of Common Grade Rank Five. Moreover, it has a Wish-fulfilling Degree of 5!” The spirit beast dared not hide anything from the giant beast.

The Six-armed Giant Beast’s eyes gleamed. It finally understood why there was a disturbance here just now.

Pieces of equipment of such a level were indeed worth fighting over for the most ordinary low-grade spirit beasts.
