Immortal Path to Heaven

In the Phoenixes’ ancestral land, Feng Mu slowly opened his eyes.

He lowered his head, and his thick eyebrows slightly furrowed as if he was sensing and calculating something.

Slowly, his eyebrows unfurled bit by bit, but the anger in his eyes was gradually accumulating.

The Phoenixes’ secret technique possessed an inconceivable mystical ability. As at this moment, Feng Mu seemed to be able to see through the endless space, clearly seeing the past, present, and future.

Especially the most important people and things, when some of the hidden powers faded away, he would be able to sense them in his heart. The reason all secrets were secrets was that they were not known by others. Nonetheless, in Feng Mu’s eyes, there were no secrets in the entire Great Wide World.

Of course, although his ability was powerful, there were still some parts that he could not see through. Moreover, when some great existences used secret techniques, they could temporarily block his line of sight.

Even so, at this moment, he had seen everything clearly.

With a cold snort, he opened his mouth and said, “Feng Xiang, bring Feng Ling and Lil’ Friend Ou’s Big Yellow over.”

In the distance, Feng Xiang responded. He did not understand why, but he would not go against the old man’s wishes. Not long after, Lil’ Red and Big Yellow arrived one after another. Their expressions were rather strange, and there was even a trace of worry on their faces.

It was fine for Lil’ Red as he was originally a member of the Phoenixes but as for Big Yellow, the bloodline that had awakened in his body was the Dragons’ bloodline. It had yet to be discovered due to Lil’ Red and Ou Yangming’s concealment, but Feng Mu’s summoning at this moment made them worried.

Feng Mu walked slowly and came to their side. He glanced with his wise eyes and the instant he looked at Big Yellow, the big yellow dog was so frightened that its fur stood on their ends.

“The Dragon’s bloodline is indeed not bad.” Feng Mu nodded his head lightly.

Big Yellow’s expression changed greatly, but he did not dare to act rashly. This was because he knew he could not rely on his strength to kill his way out of this place.

Lil’ Red flashed and blocked in front of Big Yellow, shouting, “Ah, he’s not from the Dragons so don’t kill him!”

Feng Mu asked seriously, “Who said I was going to kill him?”

Only then did Lil’ Red heave a sigh of relief and said, “As long as you don’t kill him.”

Big Yellow’s face was bitter as he thought to himself, ‘Boss Red, that’s such a low request.’

Feng Mu shook his head and said, “I called you here today to tell you that Lil’ Friend Ou is in trouble.”

Lil’ Red and Big Yellow were stunned for a while before they flew into a rage and asked, “What kind of trouble?”

“He was ambushed by the Main Combat Sects of the Dragons and the Phoenixes. He managed to escape, but he didn’t enter the heart of origins.”

“The Dragons and the Phoenixes?” Lil’ Red’s eyes were wide open as he cried out in disbelief, “How’s that possible…”

Feng Mu gave him a deep look and said, “Nothing is impossible.” He suddenly raised his voice and continued, “Lil’ Friend Ou should enter the heart of origins. As for you…” He looked at Lil’ Red and Big Yellow and said, “You should go with him.”

Feng Xiang’s expression changed greatly. “But their cultivation bases…”

Feng Mu waved his hand with a solemn expression. “We once had a chance to resolve the enmity between the Dragons and the Phoenixes, but we didn’t seize it. Now, this opportunity has appeared again. We can’t give it up.”

Feng Xiang opened his mouth but sighed and stopped.

Feng Mu asked, “Feng Ling, Big Yellow, are you willing to go to the heart of origins and live or die with Lil’ Friend Ou?”

Lil’ Red and Big Yellow answered without any hesitation, “Yes.”

Feng Mu smiled with relief and said, “Well, in that case… Go on.”

He waved his hand, and an interspatial passage opened up in front of him. The passage was deep and dark, and no one knew where it led to.

※※※※

After flying for an unknown time, Ou Yangming released his mental power. After making sure that his surroundings were safe, he carefully took out the flying boat.

He performed a skill, and the flying boat immediately rose slowly. He then took a step forward and landed on it.

In the void, a flying boat was moving forward at an incredible speed.

A rainbow-colored light screen blocked the interspatial disturbances, making the flying boat stable as if it was moving on flat ground.

Ou Yangming sat on the deck and looked at the stars in the void with different colors. He sighed and expressed, “The Great Wide World is too massive. Compared to it, we’re just a drop in the ocean. We’re so tiny that it’s difficult to describe.”

Indeed, every being in the world was tiny. When the 3,000 great paths evolved into the myriad worlds, they spread from the Great Wide World to every corner of the universe.

To be exact, the Spiritual Realm was a vassal of the Great Wide World, but its level was much lower.

He brushed his fingers against the flying boat, and a cold chill spread through his fingers to his body.

Ou Yangming chuckled. “I didn’t expect that the Dragons’ refinement technique on flying boats isn’t much inferior to that of the Phoenixes.” He realized that whether it was in terms of the refinement technique, toughness, or even practicality, the flying boat had reached the peak. He settled his thoughts and began to secretly learn from the Dragons. Speaking of secretly learning from others, this was also a long-standing and excellent tradition of the young fellow. Whether it was smithing or alchemy, his skills were first-class.

Back then, when Ou Yangming was on the Phoenixes’ flying boat, his heart was already itching, but it was not good for him to do such a thing. After all, he and Lil’ Red were brothers. Now, he had snatched the flying boat from Long Ting, so his concern was naturally dispelled.

After his mental power merged with the flying boat, numerous fine light spots appeared in his perception.

These light spots kept changing but as long as his mental power was slightly closer, they would quickly disappear.

After several times, Ou Yangming still could not make sense of anything.

He opened his eyes and seemed confused. He exhaled and asked, “What’s going on?”

If the blacksmiths of the Great Wide World knew he was learning like this, they would probably die of anger. It was worth noting that the refinement of flying boats normally required the joint effort of dozens of blacksmiths. After all, it was a massive object, so the design had to be followed step by step. One could not make a single mistake. Who knew, the young fellow directly derived the technique in reverse from the core. As such, he would hit a wall.

Ou Yangming rubbed his chin with his fingers and fell into deep thought.

Without warning, the space shook violently. In the void, light grey ripples swept out in all directions.

Even the flying boat jolted along with the rhythm of the ripples. It was like a small boat under a huge wave that could be overturned at any time.

Ou Yangming noticed that at the most intense part of the ripples, there was a huge meteorite. Having said that, within the light grey ripples, it only lasted for a few breaths before it collapsed and turned into ashes.

He was shocked. His pupils constricted slightly as he thought to himself, ‘What’s going on? Even a Ruler won’t be able to use this kind of power.’

The ripples became more intense, to the point that even Ou Yangming was shocked.

The light screen around the flying boat started to shake violently like heavy rain pouring down from the sky and hitting the lake water, causing many bubbles and ripples to appear at the same time.

Ou Yangming’s face was bitter. “I’ve escaped from being pursued by 4 Rulers, and I even killed one of them. Am I going to die in the void?”

If such a situation appeared on land, he would not be afraid. However, he was in the void at the moment. Once the formation was broken, he would have to be prepared to cross the void. If he was sucked into the interspatial disturbance, who knew where he would be sucked into? He might even be lost in the void forever.

Just as the light screen around the flying ship was about to shatter, the ripples in the space became more intense. Subsequently, a white light spot appeared in the void. The light spot rapidly enlarged and tore a hole. It was an oval-shaped irregular crack.

Ou Yangming’s heart jumped to his throat as he watched everything with a grave expression.

Before long, 2 familiar auras appeared in Ou Yangming’s senses.

“Big Yellow? Lil’ Red?” His eyes were filled with disbelief. The power of sending someone into the void had truly exceeded his understanding.

Sure enough, before his thought was gone…

Big Yellow and Lil’ Red appeared in front of him at the same time. Like 2 arcs of lightning, they were wrapped by a light screen and landed on the flying boat.

Ou Yangming took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in his heart. He stared at Big Yellow and asked, “How did you get here?”

Big Yellow grinned and stuck out his tongue. He chuckled and answered, “The heart of origins was shaken. Senior Feng Mu said that we carry the opportunities from the Dragons and the Phoenixes, so he sent us to you. We have a lot of luck!” The big yellow dog raised his head, deliberately showing a desolate expression, but his rolling eyes betrayed him. After all, he was too curious about the flying boat.

Ou Yangming nodded with a smile and did not expose him. He looked like he understood what was going on.

He thought to himself, ‘So it was Senior Feng Mu who personally made a move. No wonder, no wonder!’

Ou Yangming had seen Feng Mu before and was clear about how mighty the power hidden in that seemingly weak body was. Therefore, he was not surprised when he heard what Big Yellow said.

Lil’ Red scanned the surroundings and jumped onto Ou Yangming’s shoulder. He asked, “Lil’ Ming, where did you get this flying boat?” He was mischievous, but he was born as a phoenix and had excellent taste. Especially with a big shot like Feng Mu behind him, under the elder’s careful guidance, his vision had far surpassed that of an ordinary member of the Phoenixes.

Ou Yangming did not hesitate and answered softly, “I snatched it.”

“From the Dragons? “Lil’ Red’s eyes flickered with a different light as if he was eager to try the same thing.

Ou Yangming pointed at the center of Lil’ Red’s eyebrows and asked, “What are you thinking about? You’re only a Venerable One now, and yet you want to snatch someone else’s things? You’d just be courting death! As long as you take that step and possess the Small Phoenixes’ World, an ordinary Ruler won’t be able to last more than 10 moves from you. When that time comes, hmph, hmph…” His voice was not loud, but it seemed to have opened the door to a new world for Lil’ Red.

A ball of flames burned in Lil’ Red’s eyes as if some sort of skill had been awakened.

If Feng Xiang and Feng Mu were to know that those were the words that caused Lil’ Red to start cultivating seriously, who knew how they would feel?

As Big Yellow listened, he also opened his mouth and seemed to be thinking.

No matter how one looked at it, this scene was a little strange.

After about 10 breaths, Lil’ Red seemed to have thought of something. He jumped up on Ou Yangming’s shoulder and asked in a sharp voice, “Lil’ Ming, even an ordinary Ruler wouldn’t be able to own a flying boat of this level. How did you snatch it? Did you… Kill him?” The light in his eyes was bright as if he had heard the most interesting thing.

Ou Yangming gritted his teeth and answered, “No, he’s very strong. I ran away right after I snatched it, and I was pursued by him for a long way.”

Lil’ Red raised his wings and patted his chest. “Phew, phew. If you could really kill a Ruler, I’d be scared to death.”

“Hehe, but I forced his companion to self-explode his Dantian Lake!” Ou Yangming added.

“What?!” Lil’ Red thought that he misheard it. After a while, he uttered with a bitter expression, “What a freak!”

He had lived in the Great Wide World for 100 years, but he had never heard of a Ruler self-exploding one’s Dantian Lake.

Big Yellow had a face full of admiration. His lips curled up, revealing a mouthful of white teeth as he asked softly, “Lil’ Ming, when are you going to refine new pieces of equipment for me?”

Ou Yangming’s face darkened. He questioned, “You’re a spirit beast that owns the Small Dragons’ World. Why are you so unambitious?”

Big Yellow laughed awkwardly and did not reply.
