Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 612: Dual Skill Treasure Saber

A poison-series Skill Rune was also a skill, but it was the most unique kind among Skill Runes.

This was because the skill required a piece of equipment to have a poison source, which could be a poisonous pill or something similar. Apart from its equivalent rank, a skill’s mightiness depended on the poison source the most.

Ou Yangming did not know the origin of the poisonous pills prepared by Poisonous Saber Gentleman but since the man settled on them, they were naturally not repulsive items. After all, the man was preparing the poisonous saber for himself, hence he would not handle it carelessly.

Once Ou Yangming embedded the poisonous pill and curbed his fire, he instantly noticed a strange look on Bai Zhiyi’s face.

The elder stared at the treasure saber in Ou Yangming’s hands with an applaudable expression.

‘He refined it? Did he really... Refine it?’

This was the only question in Bai Zhiyi’s head at the moment.

Given his eyesight and experience, he could roughly tell a piece of equipment’s quality at one glance.

Although Bai Zhiyi had not inspected the equipment closely, he had secretly given it a high evaluation because he vaguely had a feeling that it was a poisonous saber with dual skill indeed.

Ou Yangming shook his wrist gently as he wanted to perform the equipment’s skills, but he suppressed the thought after he looked at Bai Zhiyi and Big Yellow.

Those were poison-series runes, after all, which would poison one if the skills were released. Therefore, he dared not act rashly before the toxicities were determined.

“Elder Bai, take a look at it.” Ou Yangming grinned and handed the treasure saber to the elder.

Bai Zhiyi’s mouth twitched. He accepted the treasure saber and scanned it with bright eyes. After observing it closely for some time, he sighed from the bottom of his heart and remarked, “Lil’ Ou, you’re amazing!”

When he looked at Ou Yangming again, there was an entirely different look in his eyes.

Ou Yangming smiled humbly and responded, “Elder Bai, I owe it to your useful guidance.”

“Ah, is that so...” Bai Zhiyi was stunned.

“Indeed. Without your guidance, I couldn’t have done it,” Ou Yangming expressed sincerely.

Bai Zhiyi opened his mouth but could not let out a word. When he saw how serious the young fellow looked, he began to wonder if he had truly contributed to this.

Nonetheless, even after racking his brain, he could not figure out which exact pointers he gave that inspired Ou Yangming so much.

As big as his brain was, he could not have guessed that Ou Yangming possessed a spiritual world that connected with origin power.

Thus, he attributed everything to Ou Yangming’s sudden inspiration.

Inspiration was similar to opportunity and good luck; once it came, it would get rid of any God in its way and would be invincible enough to sweep the world.

Having said that, inspiration was the most unreliable thing. Without it, one would instantly fall hard and end up with nothing.

Bai Zhiyi curbed his thought and said, “Lil’ Ou, since you’re done smithing it, let’s invite Poisonous Saber Gentleman here. This treasure saber should be given to him.”

Ou Yangming immediately responded, “Alright, you’ll call the shots.”

※※※※

Inside a high-walled big courtyard, Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman sat opposite each other. They conversed happily and drank to their hearts’ content.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman uttered loudly, “Zizhen, I really need to thank you this time. Ah, without your help, I wouldn’t have known who to find to smith the poisonous saber.”

Xia Zizhen laughed out loud and replied to him, “We swore to live or die together, so why are you still going on about such a small matter? Come, come, come, I’ll pour you another one!”

The middle-aged man lifted his head to down his drink, then he sighed and asked, “Zizhen, you still remember the secret realm, don’t you?”

“How can I not remember it?” Xia Zizhen put down his drink and questioned with a grave look, “You’re getting this poisonous saber smithed as a preparation to enter the secret realm again, am I right?”

“Yes. There are too many clingy little things in that secret realm, so I won’t attempt again without skills with group attack properties,” Poisonous Saber Gentleman answered. A faint look of fear could be seen on his face as he spoke.

Xia Zizhen had the same facial expression tool. It was evident that that place had also given him an extremely deep impression.

“Gentleman, have you really decided to explore that place again?”

“Yes. I won’t be resigned to the outcome if I just let it be.” Poisonous Saber Gentleman looked determined. “If the poisonous saber is successfully made, I’ll definitely make another trip to the secret realm!”

Xia Zizhen noted after some thought, “There are more than just little insects inside that realm. Ah, if you’re able to find a potent caster, perhaps you can give it another go.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman smiled bitterly and replied to him, “Casters are treated as favorite children even in influential sects, and I’m not in any position to be able to invite one.”

Xia Zizhen shook his head as he knew it was the truth. In actuality, even though he was a disciple from the Beast King Sect, he could find a caster to join him too.

While they were lamenting, somehow hurried over to them and informed Xia Zizhen softly, “Manager, Elder Bai asked for you and Sir Gentleman.”

“Why is he asking for us again?” Xia Zizhen was dumbfounded, and he furrowed his eyebrows.

It had not been long, but Bai Zhiyi had summoned them repeatedly. It was true that the elder was superior to him, who was a manager, he was rather displeased about the elder summoning him as though he was a servant.

“Zizhen, you don’t need to be annoyed.” Poisonous Saber Gentleman cleared his throat and chuckled before he continued, “Perhaps Elder Bai wants to ask something in detail. Ah, I’m feeling more at ease because of how serious and responsible he is.”

Xia Zizhen forced a smile and rejoined, “Since you don’t mind, there’s nothing I can say. Let’s go.”

He understood that since they had requested Bai Zhiyi to smith the equipment, they could not offend the elder before the equipment was made.

After a brief moment, they entered the room again. However, they were quickly attracted by a saber on the desk as soon as they went in.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman had asked for a customized saber, thus the measurements were drastically different from usual sabers. As such, they recognized the saber right away.

It would not be much if it was only a saber, but they had been trained to have great eyesight after their years of experience.

When they saw the poisonous saber in the saber’s handle and the faint chillness, their hearts could not help but pound.

‘Has the treasure saber requested by Poisonous Saber Gentleman been smithed already?’

Even so, it was a fleeting thought because they dismissed it right away.

They were not blacksmiths, but they had also consulted many people because of the treasure saber. Even if the saber was successfully smithed, they knew it could not be completed in a short time.

According to them, it would be quite fast if Bai Zhiyi could smith the saber within a year.

Even if the elder spent 3 to 5 years for it, they would not reprimand him at all.

They would not believe it if someone told them that the treasure saber could be smithed in a day.

Xia Zizhen found it hard to look away from the desk but when he finally did, he asked, “Elder Bai, did you ask for us?”

Bai Zhiyi nodded and pointed at the desk. “Do you see that?”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman and Xia Zizhen nodded and thought, ‘We’re not blind, so how can we not see it?’

“Since you’ve seen it, aren’t you going to take it away?”

“Oh, yes... Huh, what?” Xia Zizhen suddenly reacted to the situation and asked in shock, “Are you saying that it’s done?”

Bai Zhiyi rolled his eyes and responded, “If it isn’t done, why would I ask you to come? Hmph, do you think I’m very free?”

“No, no, no...” Xia Zizhen kept waving his hands. He was so excited that he was feeling quite lost.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman’s eyes were dazzling. The treasure saber was right in front of him, but he felt like he was dreaming.

‘Isn’t it difficult to smith this customized treasure saber? Why is it already done?’

He would have fallen out with the person that said what Bai Zhiyi did, but the elder was one of the reputable blacksmiths in Danzhou and was also an elder from the Beast King Sect. Hence, he dared not be impolite at all.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman went forward carefully and picked up the saber. He gently wielded it and was incredibly satisfied because it was indeed smithed according to the given measurements, such that its weight was exactly what it should be. When the man swung the saber, he felt like he could command it with ease as though it was a part of his body.

Ou Yangming smiled and interrupted. “You can release the skills, but you must control the range.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman was struck dumb. He turned to look at Bai Zhiyi.

Bai Zhiyi uttered coldly, “Since Lil’ Ou gave you the permission, go on and try it.”

The saber was smithed by Ou Yangming, so Bai Zhiyi had nothing to say if the young fellow allowed it.

Poisonous Saber Gentleman nodded and said, “Thank you.”

He channeled his spiritual power into the treasure saber, and it was then he sensed 2 different skills inside.

The man gazed at Xia Zizhen.

Xia Zizhen’s face changed, and he asked furiously, “What are you trying to do?”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman said softly, “Zizhen, please excuse me!”

“You’ll have to compensate me!” Xia Zizhen gritted his teeth.

“Don’t worry, I’ll treat you to something delicious next time.”

Xia Zizhen sighed and commented, “I made a wrong friend...” He glared at the man and said, “Come.”

Poisonous Saber Gentleman nodded, then he shook his wrist to incite the Stun Art.

He did his best to control the direction and range of the skill. While he was not a caster, he was an experienced Spiritualist, so he could control Rune Skills without releasing them carelessly.

Xia Zizhen suddenly staggered and took a step back. He almost fell to the ground.

He shook his head as if he was shaking something off, then he stood still. Nonetheless, he had a ghastly look on his face.
