Chapter 614 - An Appointment To The Secret Realm



Chapter 614: An Appointment To The Secret Realm

Poisonous Saber Gentleman was a burly man, but he cast a careful look at Ou Yangming at the moment.

This was because the secret realm that he wanted to go to was extremely queer and marvelous. It was full of danger, but a trip to the place helped him gain a fortune. Therefore, he could not forget about it.

Nonetheless, as he had discussed with Xia Zizhen, it would be much easier if a caster joined their team.

The only problem was it was nearly impossible for someone like them to invite an equal-ranked caster. Even so, they would not be resigned to the outcome if they were to report the secret realm’s situation to their sects.

Hence, when Ou Yangming appeared and showed strong interest in the spiritual herb and the poisonous pills, Poisonous Saber Gentleman and Xia Zizhen were elated.

Although they knew it would be incredibly difficult to ask Ou Yangming to join them, they would not be content unless they tried.

“Uhm, Brother Ou.” Poisonous Saber Gentleman laughed. “Whether it’s the poisonous pills or the spiritual herb, they came from the same place indeed. In fact, they’re from the same area in that place.”

He had discreetly changed the way he addressed Ou Yangming and was doing his best to get closer to the young fellow.

Ou Yangming pondered and questioned, “Brother Gentleman, is there more than one of this spiritual herb in that area?”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman was stunned, and he instantly smiled unnaturally.

Xia Zizhen interrupted and questioned, “Master Ou, how did you know?”

Ou Yangming chuckled and answered, “Spiritual herbs are exceptionally precious, but Brother Gentleman presented it as if it’s something ordinary, which is evident that he doesn’t attach much importance to it.” He paused for a while before he continued, “Since the spiritual herb and the poisonous pills were produced from the same area, if there are more than 1 poisonous pill, I figure that there are also more spiritual herbs.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman and Xia Zizhen looked at each other and smiled bitterly as they thought, ‘This young fella’s too smart.”

They did not know if it was a blessing or misfortune to deal with such a smart person, but they did not have other options at the moment.

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and stated, “Brother Ou, frankly speaking, last year, we came across a secret realm by chance.”

“Oh?” Ou Yangming remarked, “You’re really lucky…”

Secret realms were not rare. Not to mention the influential sects in the Spiritual Realm, even the inherited aristocratic families in the lower realm had similar realms.

Nevertheless, those that possessed secret realms were normally sects of inherited aristocratic families. As for private secret realms, they were very rare.

Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman were Spiritualists, but this was not the lower realm; they were in the Spiritual Realm. As such, mere Spiritualists like them did not have high-end combat powers.

Given that they found a secret realm and retrieved a spiritual herb and several poisonous pills from the realm, they were unusually lucky that it was enviable.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman laughed and responded, “Brother Ou, I suppose you’ve guessed that there are many great items inside the secret realm, but a certain price must be paid to acquire them.”

Ou Yangming asked after some thought, “You asked to smith the Poisonous Pill Treasure Saber for this, didn’t you?”

“That’s right. There are plenty of little insects inside the secret realm, and they’re simply omnipresent. If one is trapped by them, one will likely be doomed,” Poisonous Saber Gentleman replied to him sternly.

The young fellow stared blankly and said, “Since the insects are so powerful, you… Oh, the insects are afraid of poisonous pills?”

“Yes.” Poisonous Saber Gentleman praised the young fellow, “Brother Ou, you’re really smart. Back when we entered the realm, we encountered a group of insects, but we were lucky enough to be at the edge of the sea of insects. We tried our best to escape and arrived in front of a sea of flowers, but we noticed that the insects wouldn’t take another step forward, so we searched the flowers. We experienced some dangers, but we found the poisonous pills and the spiritual herb.”

Ou Yangming nodded and grinned. “I understand. You must’ve tried and realized that the poisonous pills can drive the insects away, but it’s inconvenient to carry the pills around, so you wanted to smith a piece of equipment for that purpose. Hmm, by using Skill Runes and the power of a poisonous pill, it’s indeed 10 times safer than merely using poisonous pills. Hehe, are you planning to enter the secret realm again? I suppose the pills and the herb couldn’t satisfy you.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman smiled bitterly. “Brother Ou, we couldn’t hide the truth from you indeed. You’re right, most of the insects wander at the center of the secret realm. Since there are spiritual herbs at the periphery, what can be found at the center?” He asked with bright eyes, “Brother Ou, would you like to go to take a look?”

“Are the 2 of you the only ones that know about the secret realm?” Ou Yangming was hesitant.

Xia Zizhen sighed. “Master Ou, if we reported it, do you think we’ll still be able to explore that realm?”

Ou Yangming smiled and asked, “If that’s the case, why did you tell me about it?”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman gritted his teeth and told the young fellow the truth, “It’s because a Magic Art Formation is set up in some areas in the secret realm, so we need a caster to come with us.”

The young fellow’s heart skipped a beat, but he kept a straight face.

A caster was the honorific for a cultivator with remarkable mental power in the Spiritual Realm.

Every caster had exceedingly powerful mental power and knew how to manipulate formations apart from studying runes.

A formation was a large-scale rune combination.

Every rune had different functions but when many runes were combined, there were endless possible combinations, so no caster could grasp all of the formations in the world.

Having said that, casters would at least know about formations and were much better in them than bodybuilders such as Poisonous Saber Gentleman and Xia Zizhen.

They had learned their lesson in the secret realm thus if they were to go back, they must invite a caster to join them.

Ou Yangming pursed his lips. Seeing how worried and eager the 2 men were, he was already smiling internally.

The 2 men were not aware of his origin, by which they thought he was a local caster from the Spiritual Realm, so they were looking forward to his answer.

However, Ou Yangming was a Spiritualist from the lower realm. His mental power was notable, and he was knowledgeable in magic arts and formations to a certain extent, but he never underwent systematic learning. This was why he was lacking as compared to legitimate casters in the Spiritual Realm.

Ou Yangming opened his mouth and was about to tell them the truth, but he swallowed the words before he could let them out. For some reason, he wanted to see the place where spiritual herbs and poisonous pills were produced.

The reason being he seemed to sense an affectionate aura from them.

It was worth noting that the aura gave off an alluring and sweet smell, which kept affecting his mentality and willpower.

Ou Yangming had inspected it before this and confirmed that it was not an odd, bewitching trick; his body and mental conception were involuntarily affected by it.

It was a fearsome experience for him, so he was determined to find out the reason behind it.

He glanced at the men and asked, “Are you inviting me to join you?”

“Yes!” Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman shouted at the same time.

They knew Ou Yangming was intelligent and had perceived their thoughts, so they could not be bothered about being pretentious and simply invited him.

Ou Yangming uttered after some thought, “Okay, I agree to go with you.”

Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman were overjoyed as they did not expect everything to go so smoothly. Not only did they obtain a treasure saber, but they also recruited a caster.

“Brother Ou, it’s so great that you’re joining us.” Poisonous Saber Gentleman was ecstatic. “I’ll prepare some stuff, and we can leave after 3 days.”

“Wait.” Ou Yangming smiled at them and said, “I promised Elder Bai that I’ll follow him to the Beast King Sect.”

Xia Zizhen’s face changed, and he asked, “Master Ou, are you planning to join the Beast King Sect?” He sounded confused because based on Ou Yangming’s performance, it was clear he had a mighty inheritance, so why would he join another sect?

Ou Yangming shook his head and said, “I can’t answer your question now. I’ll leave everything to… Fate.”

“Master Ou, if you’re really planning to join another sect, there’s no harm considering the Beast King Sect,” Xia Zizhen expressed after some thought, then he stuck out his chest and explained, “The Beast King Sect is one of the Humans’ Nine Great Sects in Danzhou. We have an extraordinary foundation, and we have numerous disciples in other continents.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman was dumbfounded, and he quickly noted, “Brother Ou, I’m not against you joining the Beast King Sect, but I hope you’ll only join them after we explore the secret realm.”

“Oh, why is that so?” Ou Yangming was moved.

The middle-aged man sighed. “Given that you’re a caster and a blacksmith, you’ll be regarded as a God-favored child if you join the Beast King Sect, and you’ll be strictly protected. If that’s the cast, it won’t be convenient for us to disclose the secret realm’s location to you.”

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “Brother Gentleman, don’t worry. No matter where I am, I won’t be constrained.”

In the lower realm, Ou Yangming was already pressured by the imperial family before he achieved success, but he never surrendered to them. Besides, he was no longer a nobody now.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman was relieved. “Okay, we’ll wait for you for a month, then we’ll set out to the secret realm together. What do you think?”

Ou Yangming chuckled. Once the appointment was made, he returned to his room.

The young fellow shook his wrist and retrieved the spiritual herb again. He brought it close to the tip of his nose and sniffed it hard.

A faint aura entered his body through his nose, and it seemed to have turned into a warm current that flowed inside his body.

It was not Ou Yangming’s first time getting a spiritual herb, but this was the only one that gave him such a wonderful feeling.

‘The secret realm…

‘Hehe, it’s truly exciting!’
