Chapter 675: Magical Flying Carpet

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yuqi the Venerable One’s eyes flickered. His eyes looked so fierce as though he could look through one’s heart.

He looked at Ou Yangming and asked, “Oh? So you the person that disappeared from the interspatial passage?”

Ou Yangming nodded seriously. “That’s right.”

Yuqit the Venerable One kept a straight face. He had found out about Ou Yangming’s identity, but he pretended to know nothing at this moment and had a poker face, such that nobody could notice anything.

He later scanned Ou Yangming from head to toe as if it was his first time knowing the young fellow, then he stroked his beard and asked, “I’m curious—how did you leave the interspatial passage without being noticed at all?”

Ou Yangming smiled bitterly and answered, “It was Ghost-clawed Venerable One’s doing, but I have no idea how it managed to do it.”

“Ghost-clawed?” Yuqi the Venerable One was shocked. “I know it very well, so I’m sure it’s not capable of doing that!”

Although Ghost-clawed Venerable One had notable combat power, it lacked in terms of its level of attainment in magic art. More importantly, the interspatial passage was built together by the Humans’ Nine Great Venerable Ones, hence they would not believe that Ghost-clawed Venerable One could take someone out of the passage without anyone knowing.

Ou Yangming spread out his hands and said, “I sensed Ghost-clawed Venerable One’s aura when I was taken away—this I’m sure of.”

Yuqi the Venerable One stared at him and asked after some time, “If you were taken away by it, how did you get away?”

“I used some tricks and managed to get away by luck,” Ou Yangming answered after some thought. He avoided the main point and gave a brief answer.

Yuqi the Venerable One furrowed his eyebrows a little but as dissatisfied as he was, he could not question the young fellow closely at this time.

After finding out about Ou Yangming’s identity, Yuqi the Venerable One immediately planned to become acquainted with the young fellow. It took him a lot of effort to leave a decent impression for Ou Yangming, so he could not ruin his image because of this.

“Forget it—you’re incredibly lucky to have broken free,” Yuqi the Venerable One remarked and added after a pause, “Don’t worry, apart from you, the others arrived at the Spiritual Realm safe and sound.”

Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up, but he still asked in a deep voice, “Since they’re well, why aren’t there any news about them in the Spiritual Realm?” He looked with bright eyes at the Venerable One and questioned sternly, “I went to the Beast King Sect before this, but I didn’t find out anything about them.”

Yuqi the Venerable One cursed internally, ‘Are the people in our sect a bunch of idiots? How could they let someone like him leave just like that?

‘Bai Zhiyi realized how talented he is but didn’t insist on recruiting him too. Ah, he’s not resolute enough.’

Nonetheless, he explained calmly, “Due to your disappearance, we suspected that there might be a fatal defect in the passage, and we were afraid that the passage will be used by the Beasts, so we decided to block any news about it. Unless you’re found and things are clear, or if we figure out what’s wrong with the passage, we won’t let any news spread at all.”

Ou Yangming was slightly stunned. Even though he did not think that his disappearance was closely related to the reason no news was spread, he could only accept the Venerable One’s explanation.

After all, the formidable Venerable One had lowered himself to speak to him amiably. If he failed to appreciate the Venerable One’s kindness and infuriated him instead, he would not be able to withstand it if the Venerable One slapped him.

Following that, Yuqi the Venerable One cleared his throat and asked, “Let’s go back to the Beast King Sect, then I’ll ask your friends to come over. What do you think?”

Ou Yangming was moved. “Senior, are they on Mount Wuzhi now?”

Yuqi the Venerable One twitched his mouth and answered, “Yes. I could’ve gone to Mount Wuzhi with you but now that Ghost-clawed Venerable One left angrily, I’m afraid that it’ll gather insect powerhouses to attack the Beast King Sect, so I must watch over the sect.” He glanced at the young fellow and added, “If you’re afraid, I can also get someone to send you there.”

The young fellow raised his eyebrows and responded, “My cultivation base’s still low, but I won’t flee during a crucial time. Heh, since I’m the reason this is happening, I’ll contribute my mite.”

“You better not be a burden to us; you can just stay still in the sect,” the Venerable One thought.

It was true that Ou Yangming had a mysterious technique that allowed him to eliminate 3 high-rank spirit beasts without a sound, Yuqi the Venerable One still did not want him to anyhow get involved in a fight.

Not to mention that an outsider’s sudden involvement might affect the Beast King Sect’s overall defense, the little red bird’s warning before it left was enough to make Yuqi the Venerable One afraid of letting Ou Yangming risk his life.

Needless to say, the Venerable One was also a little selfish for wanting to bring Ou Yangming back to the Beast King Sect, but he did not need to explain to the young fellow about that.

As Yuqi the Venerable One waved his sleeve, an enormous power was released. He then uttered coldly, “Okay, let’s talk about it once we return to the mountain.”

In the blink of an eye, Yuqi the Venerable One brought the old macaque, Ou Yangming, and Big Yellow into the sky, then they zoomed into the distance.

※※※※

A Venerable One had already surpassed one’s physical limits. One of the greatest differences between such a being and other powerhouses was the ability to fly freely in the universe.

Other than Venerable Ones, the Birds were the only ones that could fly. They could spread their wings and take advantage of the high altitude to launch violent attacks on their enemies on the ground. Besides, they could also escape into the sky if they encountered strong enemies that could not be defeated.

Therefore, before one became a Venerable One, the Birds were the most hated and feared race.

Nevertheless, once a powerhouse became a Venerable One, not only would one’s combat method change drastically, but one would travel differently from before.

When Yuqi the Venerable One fanned his sleeves at this moment, he naturally released an irresistible power, which enveloped Ou Yangming and the others. The moment he flew in the sky, a peculiar treasure appeared beneath them. The treasure expanded along with the wind, and it turned out to be a carpet that was several meters long.

Ou Yangming and Big Yellow did not feel anything soft beneath them even when they were standing on the carpet. Instead, it felt like they were standing on the ground, which was steady and reliable.

Under the Venerable One’s control, the carpet flew straight toward the Beast King Sect. Ou Yangming and Big Yellow had strange looks in their eyes when they saw the drifting clouds around them, as well as the shrunken view below them.

It was not their first time in the sky as they had experienced flying on the goshawk’s back before this.

However, riding a carpet in the sky seemed to be an entirely different feeling.

Ou Yangming crouched and brushed his hand across, and he sensed a queer energy fluctuation on it. It was the Venerable One’s power, but there seemed to be another power working amidst the fluctuation.

Despite having inspected for a long time, Ou Yangming could not figure out what exactly the carpet was refined from.

The young fellow did not give up. He pondered carefully, then he suddenly reached out to pull out a handful of wool from the carpet.

Yuqi the Venerable One was not looking at Ou Yangming, but he still observed him through his mental conception. He could not help but twitch his mouth when he saw what the young fellow did.

‘What’s this young fella trying to do?

‘This is a flying carpet. It’s not priceless, but it’s definitely one of the top 10 treasures that I have.

‘I rarely take it out, and I don’t even let other people clean it.

‘But I can’t believe that this young fella’s so unrestrained that he pulled out a handful... A handful of wool!’

At this moment, Yuqi the Venerable One had the urge to slap Ou Yangming. He even regretted wanting to recruit this wild kid into his sect, and he wondered if he made the right choice.’

Having said that, the eyes of the Venerable One and the old macaque changed oddly at the next instant.

After Ou Yangming pulled out a handful of wool, instead of playing with it, he shook his hand and released a fire, which was not particularly intense.

This flame seemed normal as it looked like something that could be done by any blacksmith or alchemist. That said, Yuqi the Venerable One and the old macaque screamed internally when they sensed the fire.

‘This is... Impossible!’

Based on their experience and abilities, they vaguely sensed the secret contained in the fire.

Of course, as remarkable as their abilities were, they could not sense the fire’s origin; they only sensed a shocking meaning of the flame. Nonetheless, it was enough for them to find out many things.

‘No wonder the little red bird flew into a terrible rage because of him. I see, I see...’

Yuqi the Venerable One looked down and thought, ‘Forget it—I’ll let this young fella do as he wishes.

‘Ah, my poor flying carpet...’

The Venerable One had made up his mind. Even if he had to give up on his precious Flying carpet, he must not get on Ou Yangming’s bad side.

Ou Yangming naturally did not know what the Venerable One was feeling. He was thrilled as he found something that he was interested in, so he fully focused on the handful of wool.

There must be a drive that allowed the flying carpet to fly in the sky, and the owner of the drive was none other than Yuqi the Venerable One. Nevertheless, the carpet was certainly a rare piece of equipment, which naturally caught Ou Yangming’s attention.

Since the young fellow lay on the flying carpet and studied it for a long time, he obviously gained something.

Putting aside the flying carpet’s overall structure and formation map, its wool alone carried a massive secret.

Ou Yangming immersed in his Military Fire with his mental conception and slowly explored the mystery.

Yes, as expected by him, subtle and exquisite veined patterns could be found on the scattered wool.
