Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 249 – Big Abdomen Ghost Spider

Chapter 249 Big Abdomen Ghost Spider

The three leather bags were the size of a lady’s hand. Some peculiar decorative patterns could be seen on the surface, making them look exotic.

Nonetheless, the leather bags did not carry energy waves. Apart from their strange style, there was nothing distinguished about them

When Ou Yangming chose these three items from the many goods in the carriage, Hu Yicheng and Scholar Xu looked at each other, but they could not guess what the items were. “Big Brother Hu, where did you get these three leather bags from?” Ou Yangming asked in a deep voice.

The leather bags were transformed from a dead Big Abdomen Ghost Spider’s abdomen. They did not look too big and were completely normal after they were opened, but through a unique refining method, they could be made into highly-desired legendary ultimate treasures-interspatial bags.

Needless to say, it would not be easy to successfully refine these materials into their end products. In fact, even Ou Yangming dared not guarantee that he could turn these items into interspatial bags. Therefore, he wanted to inquire about the items! background, and it would be best if he could acquire more of them.

Nevertheless, Hu Yicheng’s reply was hugely disappointing

He and the scholar had bought them from a market when they were casually strolling around. They bought them not because they perceived their background, but because they thought that the decorative patterns and the bags’ style were rather interesting.

If they knew these items would be coveted by a Yang Grade powerhouse and would almost cause them to lose their lives, they would never have touched them.

Ou Yangming asked them for the bazaar’s location so that he could go and take a look in the future if he had free time.

Hu Yicheng and Scholar Xu did not ask about the items’ background. Although they remembered the items well, they no longer took another look at them after Ou Yangming took them away.

The young fellow was very pleased with their attitudes, and he knew they were not fools, given that they had a firm foothold in such a local authority system.

On the contrary, some cavaliers were dissatisfied that Ou Yangming took three items away without being polite at all, but they dared not object to it.

Ou Yangming inspected the carriage again to confirm that there were only three leather bags and that he did not leave out anything.

“Brother Ou since you’re going to the capital too, how about we travel together?” Hu Yicheng chuckled and asked. He paused for a while as he was afraid that the young fellow would reject them again, so he added, “We found some unique materials during our journey, and they were specifically ordered by Master Wu Hongxi. We’re planning to send them to him once we arrive at the capital.”

“Master Wu Hongxi—Fine Grade King?” Ou Yangming was stunned. “That’s right.” Hu Yicheng’s eyes lit up, and he thought, ‘Sure enough, Brother Ou was moved when I mentioned Master Wu Hongxi’s name.’

Scholar Xu further encouraged Ou Yangming on the side, “Master Wu Hongxi is the publicly acknowledged Fine Grade King. He has an unordinary level of attainment in smithing art, and he’s also a superb blacksmith master. Brother Ou, since you obtained the Military Fire, you’re introduced to smithing art by fate. If you have any thoughts in your mind, you can learn from Master Wu.”

Ou Yangming grinned. He would be delighted if he could learn from Wu Hongxi when he first stumbled upon smithing art.

However, at that point, even if Wu Hongxi had extraordinary abilities in smithing art, Ou Yangming would not be inferior to him. After all, as capable as Master Wu was, it was unlikely that he could smith magic tools.

Despite that, Ou Yangming’s smile carried so much information that Hu Yicheng and the other people could not figure it out.

In any case, Ou Yangming was moved when he heard Wu Hongxi’s name.

The fact that he could smith magic tools was closely related to his purple Military Fire, but in terms of actual ability in smithing art, he dared not say that he could be superior to the top-notch blacksmith masters of this era.

If he was given a chance to exchange views with those blacksmith masters, he would not miss it.

“Okay, since you’re so fervent, I’ll travel with you,” Ou Yangming responded with a smile after a moment of hesitation. He then glanced and voiced out, “But I have a presumptuous request.”

Hu Yicheng was delighted, so he quickly replied to the young fellow, “Brother Ou, please.”

“I don’t want to meet strangers, so I’d like to stay in the carriage throughout the journey, and I won’t show up during normal circumstances. What do you think?” Ou Yangming stated.

Hu Yicheng was deeply confused, but he was satisfied as long as Ou Yangming agreed to travel together with them. As for the young fellow’s strange liking… He figured those capable powerhouses were somehow out of the ordinary in certain ways.

Since it was only a small request, he was obviously not going to reject it. Therefore, Ou Yangming entered a carriage by himself after a brief moment.

The goods in the carriage had been transferred to the other carriages.

In actuality, Hu Yicheng and Scholar Xu wanted to give up their carriages, but Ou Yangming insisted on taking another carriage, so they could only compromise.

Ou Yangming retrieved the three leather bags in the carriage and carefully traced the decorative patterns on them. He mumbled and made a cross-reference with the refining method in the crystal ball in his mind.

Refining an interspatial bag was not an easy task for sure. Without having a certain level of confidence, Ou Yangming would never act recklessly.

His journey to the capital would be a stage of exploration and accumulation for him.

****

The main road was still getting the same sunlight, but Wang Leshui, who was hurrying on with the journey further back, was fuming with rage. Ou Yangming’s sudden disappearance made him feel uneasy. If it was not because he was aware of the young fellow’s untypical abilities and power to face all sorts of mishaps, he would have been frightened out of his wits.

After all, before they set out, the general had exhorted him to protect Ou Yangming well and to assure that nothing bad would happen to the young fellow.

Given that Ou Yangming was a blacksmith who could smith magic tools and researched a Rune Mold to upgrade military sabers’ grades and ranks, any kind of treatment and safety measures that were adopted on him would not be too much.

Despite that, as careful as Wang Leshui was, Ou Yangming managed to sneak away.

Fortunately, Ou Yangming informed him about it before he left. If that was not the case, how could he still carry on with the journey?

For now, the news of Ou Yangming’s departure had not spread in the convoy. Other than Wang Leshui and his two confidants, the other people thought the young fellow was still sitting in the carriage

Once Wang Leshui’s face darkened, everyone in the convoy fell silent because they were afraid that he would vent his anger on them.

As the convoy traveled normally, a disturbance was suddenly heard coming from behind.

Wang Leshui furrowed his eyebrows and asked angrily, “What’s going on?”.

‘Captain’s in a bad mood now, and yet some people are stirring up trouble. They really have a death wish,’ the few soldiers beside him cursed as well. That said, their faces changed when they turned to look, and they shouted, “Who are you?!”

It was worth noting that Wang Leshui’s convoy consisted of more than ten big carriages and almost a hundred soldiers as escorts.

Those who protected the convoy were tough men from the military, and they did not hide their identities. No matter where the convoy traveled too, nobody would have the guts to offend them. As for bandits on the road, they would avoid the large-scaled convoy like it was a plague; they would not be daring enough to approach it to court their deaths.

Nonetheless, a man in black, who was clearly not a soldier, appeared out of nowhere behind the convoy.

He stood on one of the carriages while roughly ten soldiers around it shouted at him.

Wang Leshui’s face twitched when he turned to look. He immediately waved his hand and yelled fiercely, “Retreat, don’t be disrespectful!”

The soldiers startled, but the ones that were particularly around the last carriage retreated right away. Even so, they stood in positions as they vaguely surrounded the man in the middle.

This was the subconscious reaction of the soldiers, which was far more reliable than the bandits’ action.

Wang Leshui hurried toward the carriage and did a fist salute. “I’m Captain Wang Leshui, and I’m under the command of Sir Li Xinfan from the Changlong County’s Prefecture Military Camp. May I ask how I should address you? If you need our service, please let us know.”

Many soldiers were dumbfounded because Wang Leshui was able to be appointed as Li Xinfan’s Guards captain because of his legitimate achievements.

He had the cultivation base of Yang Grade and came from an aristocratic family. It was only after experiencing many battles that he gained his position as a captain.

Nevertheless, even Captain Wang was being respectful toward the man in black, and he even brought up General Li Xinfan’s name. Who exactly was the man in black?

The man in black lowered his head quietly and cast a faint look at Wang Leshui.

Wang Leshui felt his chest ache and could barely open his eyes. He was frightened, and he knew he was not mistaken indeed.

The man in black finally spoke coldly, “Where’s Ou Yangming?”

Wang Leshui was taken aback, and he could not help but gasp. “Sir, why are you looking for Master Ou?”

“Get lost!” The man in black waved his hand impatiently. When his sleeve moved along with his hand, a strong wind was stirred. Just as Wang Leshui moved a little, he was wrapped up by the wind and was thrown backward.

Almost at the same time, the man in black flashed and calmly made his way to the carriage in the middle.

He pulled the curtain apart and reached out to seize the person inside.

However, he instantly stared at the person and remarked, “You’re not Ou Yangming!”

It was true that Ou Yangming was the one who sat in the carriage, but after he disappeared, Wang Leshui could only place one of his confidantes inside to hide the truth.

His confidante was also a soldier who had a Yin Grade cultivation base.

That being said, the soldier’s bones seemed to have become soft when he was clutched by the man in black as he could not resist at all.

The man in black turned to glare at Wang Leshui.

Wang Leshui was appalled. He hesitated before he explained, “Master Ou isn’t with us, he left to the capital long ago.”

His statement was only half-true. Following that, the man in black scoffed and let go of the person in his grasp, then he flashed into the distance.

Wang Leshui felt that his heart turned ice-cold when he watched the person vanish. He was no longer frustrated and was glad that Master Ou had left. If that was not the case, the consequences would be unbearable!
