Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 596 – Ridiculous Requests

Chapter 596: Ridiculous Requests

Immortal Fox and the 5 other spirit beasts looked helpless, and they thought, ‘Had we known that this young human’s so capable, we wouldn’t have treated him like we did earlier.’

“Hehe, Brother Macaque, you’re joking.” Immortal Fox stood up with a smile and cupped its hands at Ou Yangming from afar. “Lil’ friend, how should we address you?”

It did not pay much importance to Ou Yangming before this, but its attitude changed drastically at this moment. Perhaps, for now, the young man would not be able to smith the equipment that it needed, but he had a bright future since he had such a level of attainment at a young age.

Ou Yangming dared not respond slowly, hence he returned the salutation and answered, “I’m Ou Yangming. Greetings, Sir Immortal Fox.”

Nobody noticed this, but the centipede, which was surrounded by black mist, turned its head after it heard his name. Nonetheless, all of the spirit beasts were paying attention to the young fellow at the moment, so none of them suspected its action.

“We’re able to meet each other by fate, Master Ou.” Immortal Fox smiled faintly. It turned around and noted, “If any of you would like Master Ou to smith pieces of equipment for you, you can let him know now.”

Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and thought, ‘This fox said that it’s fate, but it doesn’t intend to ask me to smith a piece of equipment for it. It clearly doesn’t trust me.’

Immortal Fox’s eyes flickered as it immediately guessed what Ou Yangming was thinking. It could not help but laugh as it explained, “Don’t misunderstand me; it’s not that I don’t trust you, but you can’t provide what I need.”

The young fellow was stunned. He asked after some thought, “May I be so bold as to ask what it is that you need, Your Excellency?”

He would not be presumptuous by thinking that he could smith every piece of equipment in the world, and he believed that Immortal Fox must have its reason for saying that.

Even so, he would not be resigned to the outcome if he did not get his answer.

Immortal Fox sighed and said, “I’m about to break through to become a Venerable One.”

Ou Yangming stared at the spirit fox and understood why it was casually sitting in the middle and why the macaque treated it with more respect.

It turned out that Immortal Fox’s cultivation base was already at an extremity, and it was going to become a Venerable One. In that case, its real cultivation base was not lower than that of Multi-armed King Kong at all.

“Master Ou, Sir Immortal Fox has come to the Trading Meet this time to see if it’ll chance upon a piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment,” the macaque stated as it stepped forward. It added after a short pause, “It has an exemplary cultivation base and will definitely draw the thunderbolts disaster within a decade.”

Ou Yangming nodded and looked deeply at the spirit fox. ‘Since there’s still a decade to go, and we happen to have met once, some things don’t need to be rushed. Besides, the pieces of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment that I smithed might be extremely useful in the lower realm, but I don’t know if they’ll be as effective in the Spiritual Realm.’

“Sir Immortal Fox, I’ll keep an eye out for you. If I find a piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment, I’ll surely send it to you,” he expressed in a deep voice.

Immortal Fox and the other spirit beasts were dumbfounded, and they cast strange looks at Ou Yangming.

Eagle Shan suddenly questioned, “Young fella, do you know what it is?”

Ou Yangming answered, “Of course.”

“Heh, they’re incredibly precious, so how are you qualified to get one?” Eagle Shan rolled its round eyes and fixed its gaze on Ou Yangming. It did not release its forceful pressure, but it was nothing close to being friendly.

It was worth noting that pieces of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment were the most-needed items for top-grade spirit beasts.

Although the mountain eagle was still far from becoming a Venerable One, if it was possible, it would not miss getting its hands on such a piece of equipment.

Therefore, after noticing Ou Yangming’s expression and tone of speech, the top-grade spirit beasts were instantly moved. ‘Does this young fella really have a piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment with him?’

“Brother Eagle, this little brother’s an outspoken man speaking his mind, so you don’t need to take him seriously.” Immortal Fox chuckled, then it turned to say to Ou Yangming, “Master Ou, hear them out first. Let’s talk again later.”

The other top-grade spirit beasts cursed internally, ‘Damn fox, you’re really cunning.’

Nevertheless, even if Ou Yangming had a piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment, they would not be able to fight for them with the damn fox.

After all, the fox was going to become a Venerable One, whereas their cultivation bases were lower. If they were to fight for a piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment with it at this moment, it would unquestionably be a fight of life-or-death.

With that, Ou Yangming turned to look at the other top-grade spirit beasts. Eagle Shan laughed out loud and uttered, “I’ll go first.” It spoke with bright eyes, “I need a Fine Grade offensive magic tool, best if it’s a piece of White Silver Equipment with at least 5 White Silver Attributes layered. In fact, it’ll be better if there’s an attribute that’ll increase a wind-mastery spell’s mightiness, or an intermediate wind-mastery attacking spell.”

Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and thought, ‘Eagle Shan’s request is quite demanding.’

Fine Grade offensive magic tools seemed to be beyond his capability at the moment. As for layering more than 5 White Silver Attributes and an attribute that would increase a wind-mastery spell’s mightiness, he was even more unsure about them.

All in all, he could not smith such a magic tool yet.

Bear Huang laughed and remarked, “Brother Eagle, don’t make things difficult for this little friend. The equipment that you’re asking for can even be used by Sir Venerable One.”

Eagle Shan shook its head and rejoined, “If I wanted an ordinary piece of equipment, would I be waiting here? Hmph, the equipment that you need isn’t any better than mine.”

“You’re right. Since we’ve come to the top, we naturally won’t be asking for ordinary pieces of equipment.” Bear Huang scratched its head and sighed.

It revealed its request without any restraints and sure enough, the smithing difficulty of that equipment was not lower than that of the equipment requested by Eagle Shan. Not only did the top-grade spirit beasts need pieces of equipment with certain qualities, but they also had some demands for certain Unique Attributes, which were the real problems.

Following that, the remaining top-grade spirit beasts made their requests known. Ou Yangming smiled bitterly after he listened to them, and he even had tingling sensations on his scalp.

Not to mention he had just entered the Spiritual Realm not long ago and had not learned the realm’s legitimate smithing art, even if he learned everything, he might not be able to find the corresponding materials.

Ou Yangming sighed and said, “Seniors, I’ll remember your requests.” He then raised a serious question, “Can I ask if any master has come up here before this?”

The macaque chuckled and answered, “You’re the first human master that came up here during this Trading Meet.”

Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and rolled his eyes at the macaque. He initially thought he would meet top-notch smithing masters here, but it turned out that he was the first blacksmith to come up to the peak. If he had known earlier, he would not have come to bring contempt upon himself.

After bowing at the top-grade spirit beasts, Ou Yangming bid his farewell.

The top-grade spirit beasts did not make him stay, thus they simply watched as he left. When Ou Yangming returned to the crystal wall’s entrance, the macaque smiled with its eyes narrowed and said, “Master Ou, if you’re done smithing, you can pass those pieces of equipment to me any time. I’ll be in charge of contacting them, and I guarantee that you won’t suffer any loss.”

Big Yellow welcomed Ou Yangming compliantly and circled him as a gesture to fawn over him.

Struck with a thought, Ou Yangming asked, “Brother Macaque, during the past Trading Meets, did nobody climb to the top?”

The macaque answered with a smile, “There were naturally masters that went to the peak, but they normally smith inside the crystal wall and will only head there on the last day.”

Ou Yangming came to a sudden realization. “I understand now; they don’t smith on the spot.”

“Of course not.” The macaque laughed. “You heard their requests. If one wants to smith such peculiar magic tools, gathering the right materials alone will be difficult. If any human master can complete the pieces of equipment within a decade, the spirit beasts will be elated.”

“They probably request more than one master, right?” Ou Yangming asked after some thought.

“Of course, but even if they request 10 masters, their pieces of equipment might not be completed.”

“What if 2 masters complete them at the same time?”

“That’ll be great news, and we’d love more of that to happen. Hehe, pieces of equipment of such levels are certainly in short supply.” The macaque smiled brightly. It stressed with bright eyes, “Master Ou, we’ll take however many pieces of equipment you can smith!”

Ou Yangming smiled bitterly and wondered, ‘How exactly scarce are pieces of equipment for the Beasts? I can’t believe it said that.’

Without warning, a figure fluttered down from the peak. It was Immortal Fox, which spoke with a smile, “Master Ou, please stay.”

The young fellow smiled bitterly. His carelessness earlier made the spirit fox notice some clues, but he did not expect it to really follow him down here.

“Master Ou, I’ll send you off once you’re done talking to Sir Immortal Fox.” The macaque grinned, then it swayed and entered the crystal wall.

Ou Yangming shook his head helplessly, then he asked, “Sir Immortal Fox, do you have orders for me?”

Immortal Fox waved its hand and responded, “Master Ou, judging from your expression just now, you seem to be confident about obtaining a piece of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment?”

The young fellow opened his mouth hesitantly and answered, “Sir Immortal Fox, nobody can guarantee that!”

“Hehe, Master Ou, you don’t need to be so polite. If you have any inconvenience, I can be of help in some capacities,” Immortal Fox noted seriously. A fierce look could be seen in its eyes as it added, “I assure you that even if anything bad happens, you won’t be involved.”

Needless to say, pieces of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment were incredibly precious. Perhaps an Almighty Being was holding one at the moment.

Ou Yangming was not capable enough to acquire it, but it would be different if Immortal Fox made a move. No matter how powerful that being’s background was, the spirit fox would not mind trying to get it.

Despite that, Ou Yangming smiled bitterly. He naturally understood the hidden meaning between the lines, but the problem was he did not know where the pieces of Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment were in the Spiritual Realm.

After thinking for some time, he finally rejoined, “Sir Immortal Fox, if you trust me, please give me a year, and I’ll definitely get back to you.”

Immortal Fox’s eyes flickered, and it suddenly had the thought of kidnapping the young fellow.

That said, when it remembered that they were on the 10,000 Beasts Ridge, it could only suppress the idea.

Immortal Fox sighed and replied to him, “If that’s the case, I’ll leave it to you, Master Ou.”
