Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 951: The Flying Boat Travels Quickly

“Buzz...”

The sound of the morning bell rang, accompanied by the rising sun from the east.

Ou Yangming opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with a trace of anticipation.

At the foot of the mountain, a figure flew over. It was Ling Yue. He quickly came to Ou Yangming’s side and whispered, “Brother Yu, it’s almost time.”

Ou Yangming nodded lightly. Naturally, he knew what he was talking about.

The 2 of them walked together and arrived at Wen Zhou’s courtyard in a short while. The elder’s gaze was gentle as he said in a deep voice, “You’re here.”

Ling Yue’s eyes carried a trace of excitement as he said, “Master, I’ve sent Brother Yu over.”

Wen Zhou could not help but laugh. “You talk too much.” Although he was scolding the young man, the smile on his face could not be hidden no matter how hard he tried.

Ou Yangming stepped forward and said, “Senior.”

Faced with Ou Yangming, a caster who was proficient in formations, even Wen Zhou did not dare to be arrogant. He laughed and said, “There’s no need to be so polite, fellow friend.”He paused and added, “The flying boat that will send you to the Big Ruins has been prepared. Hehe, please follow me.”

Under the lead of this Seven Stars Sect elder, they came to a huge open space.

When Ou Yangming saw this place for the first time, his eyes were attracted by an exquisite flying boat.

Looking from afar, the flying boat was not as magnificent as what he had seen on Mount Wuzhi from Danzhou, but it had a different atmosphere. The narrow flying boat was rippling with a strange energy fluctuation. It was obvious that it was ready and could fly away at any time.

Wen Zhou nodded slightly when he came to the flying boat. Nonetheless, there was a hint of reluctance in Ling Yue’s eyes.

Ou Yangming chuckled and said, “Brother Ling, I’m going out for a trip. I’ll drink with you and catch up with you after I come back.”

Ling Yue raised his eyebrows and said in a clear voice, “Okay, Brother Yu. I’ll wait for your news.”

Wen Zhou waved his hand and asked Ling Yue to leave, then he accompanied Ou Yangming to board the flying boat. The young fellow looked around. He did not know where the Big Ruins was, but the fact that the Seven Stars Sect was sending him off with a flying boat was enough to prove that it was extraordinary.

All of a sudden, Ou Yangming’s expression changed slightly as he turned around to look.

A figure rushed over from below. That person was thin and long. When he walked, he was like an unsheathed longsword that was filled with a sharp aura.

The corners of Ou Yangming’s eyes twitched, and he immediately recalled the scene when they met that day.

A smile appeared on Wen Zhou’s face as he shouted, “Junior Brother Zang Jian, come up quickly, we’re waiting for you.”

Zang Jian moved and entered the flying boat. He glanced at everyone’s faces, and the sharpness in his gaze made it difficult for people to look directly at him. At this moment, there were already dozens of people on the flying boat. Even so, only a handful of people were able to withstand his overbearing gaze and remain unmoved.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming’s expression was calm as though he was not affected by this sharp gaze at all.

Zang Jian looked at Ou Yangming deeply before stopping in his tracks. It was obvious that he was paying more attention to him.

Ou Yangming was secretly on guard, but he did not understand how he had offended this person.

Naturally, he did not know how shocking it was that he had squeezed Gu Gengren out of the slot and won the subsequent battle.

Even though Zang Jian thought highly of himself, he was also extremely impressed when he faced Gu Gengren. When he suddenly learned that an inexplicable caster won the battle against Gu Gengren, he looked at Ou Yangming in a new light.

A voice that was as steady as a mountain was heard. “Since everyone’s here, let’s go.”

That voice came from the flying boat, but it gave off an illusory feeling, making people unable to find the source of the voice.

Ou Yangming was slightly startled as well. He searched for a moment on the flying boat and lamented, ‘The Seven Stars Sect is indeed full of hidden talents. Even I couldn’t detect where the owner of the voice was hiding.’

In fact, if the owner of the voice was hiding in a corner of the flying boat, it would not have been so surprising. The problem was that at this moment, given the cultivation bases of the people on the flying boat, they were unable to determine the exact location of the voice. It was an amazing performance.

Ou Yangming looked at Wen Zhou, but the Seven Stars Sect elder with real power smiled mysteriously and did not mention the existence of this person at all.

The flying boat slowly rose into the air, accelerating bit by bit and suddenly zoomed toward the depths of the clouds.

Despite that, the people on the flying boat were not ordinary people. They were not Venerable Ones, but they seemed to be used to flying in the sky. Therefore, no one shouted. Instead, they gathered in groups of 2 or 3 and discussed the Big Ruins.

Ou Yangming’s eyes moved, and he asked in a deep voice, “Senior Wen, where are we going now?”

Wen Zhou chuckled and said, “The entrance of the Big Ruins is built near Reborn in Paradise. We have to go there first to meet with the candidates who will enter the Big Ruins this.”

Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up slightly. Reborn in Paradise was one of the largest sects in Zhangzhou. It was not famous for its martial arts, but it was important when it came to the study of formation maps. The other large sects had made indelible contributions to the construction of the two-way formation map leading to the Big Ruins, but the truly indispensable contribution was from Reborn in Paradise.

Having said that, after hearing the name of this sect, Ou Yangming was secretly on guard.

After all, he was inextricably linked to the death of a Venerable One from Reborn in Paradise in Danzhou.

He did not kill the Venerable One, but he did not think that Reborn in Paradise would let him off so easily.

It was a Venerable One, after all, who could be considered the pillar of a sect. Once people found out that the Venerable One’s death was related to him, Ou Yangming believed that even if he was the Phoenixes’ messenger, he might not be able to make Reborn in Paradise let go of their desire to take revenge.

They might not dare to take revenge openly, but their little tricks in the dark would also be impossible to guard against.

The flying boat was getting faster, reaching a height that ordinary people could not imagine. However, it was difficult to feel any bumps while sitting on the flying boat. If the surrounding scenery did not move, people might think that they had not moved at all.

Ou Yangming sighed and thought, ‘Zhangzhou’s strength in the smithing industry is indeed above Danzhou.’

In particular, the refining of such a large-scale piece of equipment was far from what Danzhou could compare to.

As a powerful elder of the Seven Stars sect, Wen Zhou had a lot of popularity. He brought Ou Yangming to communicate with people on the boat as if he wanted to guide him into this circle.

Ou Yangming had a smile on his face as he memorized the names and appearances of these people.

Wen Zhou laughed and said, “Fellow friends, you’re representing the Seven Stars Sect to enter the Big Ruins this time. I wish you all success and great gains.”

Ou Yangming’s heart moved slightly as he asked, “Senior Wen, how many slots are there this time?”

Wen Zhou replied without hesitation, “The Big Ruins opens once every 3 months, and the entry quota is limited to 500 slots.” A proud look flashed across his face as he continued, “The Seven Stars Sect has 50 slots, occupying a tenth of the total quota this time. Hehe, we’re the only sect with this quota.”

Everyone nodded one after another. It was quite a feat for the sect to occupy a tenth of the slots in the entire continent.

They knew that even with the Seven Stars Sect’s strength, they might not be able to do this every time but even if it was just once, it was enough to boast about.

Ou Yangming tried his best to act normally on the flying boat. He did not deliberately avoid anything, but he also did not have the slightest intention of showing off. The young fellow was fearful of the Venerable One who was hiding in the flying boat. Therefore, he wanted to disappear from the crowd and was not willing to stand out.

After flying for several days, the flying boat finally stopped at a certain spot.

Ou Yangming glanced ahead half-intentionally. The sky in the distance did not seem to be different, but he had a strange feeling.

It was as if that place was filled with indescribable danger.

The flying boat slowly fell silent as if everyone had the same feeling. Even the Zang Jian was staring ahead silently.

“We’ve arrived.” That strange voice sounded again. “You should take care of yourselves during this trip, and you mustn’t make the Seven Stars Sects lose its image.”

Everyone nodded and respectfully responded.

Not everyone here was a disciple of the Seven Stars Sect, but they had all obtained the right to enter the Big Ruins through the sect. As such, there was nothing wrong with the Venerable One’s exhortation.

The flying boat continued to hover in the air, but the front of the flying boat suddenly lit up.

A huge ray of light flashed at the collision angle. It was like a lamp lit up in the dark night, emitting a dazzling light.

The light became brighter to the extent that it attracted all the light in the surroundings to a single spot and released a huge amount of magnificent energy that caused people to tremble.

“Boom...”

The energy exploded with a bang, and a deafening sound rang in the sky.

Ou Yangming and the others’ faces changed greatly. Such powerful energy seemed to have surpassed the full-force attack of an ordinary Venerable One.

That said, what made them feel incredulous was that the flying boat did not shake because of this. The forceful shockwave spread out, but it was unable to shake the flying boat in the slightest. On the contrary, not far in front of the flying boat, a huge hole appeared out of thin air.

Ou Yangming’s eyes were bright and lively, and he was utterly shocked.

It turned out that this was actually a method to open the formation map. It was just that the momentum was so great that it was unimaginable.

“The entrance has been opened. You can go in now.”

That voice was faintly heard again without the intention of urging anyone. Everyone looked at each other and was eager to give it a try.

Zang Jian raised his eyebrows and walked out first. He expressed in a clear voice, “Thank you, Venerable One.” After saying that, he leaped up and turned into a ray of light, rushing into the cave entrance.

Once someone took the lead, the others did want to be outdone. They looked at each other and jumped into the cave entrance.

Ou Yangming turned his head and looked at the flying boat. His body swayed, and he took a step forward. His body seemed to be surrounded by some kind of power as he also threw himself into the cave.

When all of the selected people disappeared into the cave entrance, the entrance slowly disappeared. The entire sky returned to peace. Other than the flying boat floating in the air, there was no other trace.
