Immortal Path to Heaven

Chapter 632: Parasitic Spiritual Herb

Big Yellow roared. It actually sounded delightful.

Ever since it entered the Spiritual Realm with Ou Yangming, it had only encountered powerful spirit beasts. Whether it was Fat Antelope, the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard, or even the Extreme Grade powerhouses they met, they could crush it.

Therefore, it was filled with pent-up anger for a long time.

After consuming the insect king’s inner core and grasped a new power, it was full of itself, so it stepped forward bravely with a strong fighting spirit when it was challenged by an ignorant little fellow.

Ou Yangming was startled, and he could not help but laugh. He was about to release a magic art, but he stopped.

Since Big Yellow was interested in this, he would let him play around.

“Boom, boom, boom...”

Big Yellow did not evade the spirit beast’s attack. It met force with force against the beast and relied on the advantage of its huge body, where it attacked head-on regardless of the direction the beast charged from. Although the spirit beast was far smaller than the big yellow, it was unbelievably nimble. It flashed so quickly that even Ou Yangming, who was spectating from the side, could not perceive anything anymore.

One was wild and violent while the other was as fast as lightning.

The 2 spirit beasts fought for a brief moment and became caught up in the fight as each had its own strengths.

All of a sudden, when the small spirit beast flashed, the air shook and formed a peculiar cyclone. It was a forceful wind, which transformed into the sharpest blade and slashed Big Yellow’s body ruthlessly.

“Ding...”

Big Yellow was caught off guard by the sudden wind blade, hence it could not avoid it in time.

Nonetheless, it had put on its armor long ago, so the wind blade could not hurt it despite being threatening.

The big yellow dog roared furiously, then its body began to expand to twice its original size in the blink of an eye.

Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up. This was Big Yellow’s new ability, but it was its first time using it during combat, thus he was looking forward to it. He could not wait to see how much the inner core of the insect king, which could command swarms of insects, could change the big yellow dog.

The small spirit beast retreated, which was evident that it was shocked by Big Yellow’s change.

Nevertheless, the instant it moved backward, Big Yellow lunged at it at a much faster speed.

Ou Yangming’s eyelids flickered as he was taken aback too.

The larger a spirit beast, the slower it would be. Spirit beasts such as Multi-armed King Kong or the Six-armed Giant Beast could make the ground quake with every move they made, but their absolute speeds still could not match their mightiness.

However, Big Yellow’s transformation was entirely different. Not only did its body become tougher and more massive, but most importantly, its speed improved greatly too.

Big Yellow pounced and clutched. It caught up to the small spirit beast and swiftly slammed it down to the ground.

Following that, it widened its mouth to mercilessly bite off the spirit beast’s neck. The beast’s neck flew up with a splatter of blood as it was hurled away at once.

Instant kill.

That was definitely an instant kill.

This was the effect of Big Yellow’s power and speed gaining absolute suppressions. Perhaps the spirit beast, which had died a ghastly death, did not even know how the big yellow dog, which was supposedly a well-matched opponent, suddenly became so potent.

Needless to say, the unexpected effect was only possible because of the surprising change.

If the small spirit beast was well-prepared, even though it would still not be Big Yellow’s match, it might be able to escape.

Big Yellow looked around for some time, then its body slowly shrunk and returned to its original size. Even so, the proud look in its eyes was there to stay.

The critical hit caused its affected confidence to recover again. It dared not challenge spirit beasts above its ranks, but it could certainly kill spirit beasts such as Fat Antelope and the Silver Ridge Giant Leopard.

Ou Yangming gave it a thumbs up and praised with a smile, “Big Yellow, you did great.”

Big Yellow was pleased. It stuck out its chest as though it was saying, ‘I told you—you’ll still need me.’

The young fellow grinned without saying a word, then he kept the dead spirit beast. It was small, but it was a spirit beast, after all, so it must not be wasted.

Ou Yangming later approached the tree again and looked for some time. Just as he wanted to reach out to pluck the flower, he was struck with a thought.

He pondered then channeled his mental conception into one of his Long Feather Bands.

Over there, the lazy turtle retracted its head into its shell and was sleeping without making a sound. On top of its shells, several spiritual herbs were seen swaying gently. When Ou Yangming’s mental conception entered the space, he felt like he was in paradise.

This was not the Spiritual Realm, nor was it a secret realm; it was only a boundless space.

Having said that, when the lazy turtle and the spiritual herbs were inside, the space was oddly full of life as if it was a new world.

Ou Yangming vaguely felt that he made the right choice using the spiritual herbs as baits to make the lazy turtle stay. Moreover, if he gathered more spiritual herbs, the turtle and the herbs would cooperate better and create greater value.

After a long time, Ou Yangming curbed his thoughts and concentrated in the environment that was filled with magical vitality.

“Lazy turtle, lazy turtle...”

As Ou Yangming called out to the lazy turtle, it finally extended its head out of its shell.

It looked at the sky and asked unhappily, “What is it?”

Perhaps it was secretly complaining about Ou Yangming calling out to it out of the blue, but it tolerated it seeing that he continuously sent spiritual herbs into the space.

Ou Yangming scoffed and said, “You’re sleeping very soundly here.”

The lazy turtle stretched its neck and responded, “What is it? If you have nothing else to say, I’ll be going back to sleep.”

‘This fella’s too lazy.’ Ou Yangming was annoyed.

“Okay. I found a new spiritual herb but since you’re not interested, forget it.”

“What? A new spiritual herb?” The lazy turtle immediately halted, and its initially sleepy eyes lit up right away as it shouted, “Ah, Master Ou, I was wrong. If you need any help, please let me know.”

Ou Yangming cursed internally, ‘This lazy turtle’s overly realistic.’

That said, he needed the lazy turtle’s help at the moment. Since it acknowledged its mistake, he would let this slide.

The airflow inside the Long Feather Band suddenly surged and turned into the big tree and the red flower outside.

Given Ou Yangming’s ability to control his mental power, illustrating a scene inside the space was child’s play for him.

“Do you know what this spiritual flower is?”

“Th-this...” The lazy turtle got up abruptly and replied to him, “This is a Parasitic Flower. Ah, isn’t this flower extinct in Danzhou? How can it be here?”

It was not an idiot so when it recalled what Ou Yangming said earlier, it naturally understood that he found this spiritual flower.

Ou Yangming was surprised. The young fellow thought even more highly of the secret realm after he found the Plant Poisonous Pills, but when he heard that he had stumbled upon an extinct species, he realized that he had underestimated the realm.

Perhaps the secrets that he would find here would exceed his imagination.

No wonder Xia Zizhen and Poisonous Saber Gentleman valued the secret realm so much and rather explore it slowly instead of reporting it to their sects.

“What’s the use of a Parasitic Flower?” Ou Yangming questioned in a deep voice.

The lazy turtle answered after some thought, “I only have information about it from my ancestral memories. This spiritual flower always grows on powerful plants, and it grows by stealing essences from the plant.”

Ou Yangming frowned and asked again, “What can this flower do?”

He figured that it was an unordinary item as the lazy turtle was making a fuss about it. If the flower was merely parasitic, it would not have forgotten itself.

Sure enough, the lazy turtle widened its eyes and said, “The biggest function of a Parasitic Spiritual Flower is to purify immortal liquid.”

“What will happen if an immortal liquid is purified?” Ou Yangming was moved.

“It’ll be effective, of course, and it’s the most wonderful effect.” The lazy turtle lifted its claws and made strokes in the air. Its eyes glowed slightly as it explained, “If an immortal liquid is used to cultivate a Parasitic Flower, every 10 drops of the liquid will yield 1 drop of refined immortal liquid. The concentrated immortal liquid has numerous marvelous effects, one being a single drop can fully recover a Venerable One’s spiritual power. Besides, if it’s added during the refinement of pills, the pills’ properties will improve greatly, especially...” It hesitated for a while before it continued, “It’s said that if the concentrated immortal liquid is added into essential pills for advancement, it’ll be incredibly advantageous if one advances to become a Venerable One or break through to higher boundaries.”

Ou Yangming’s face changed. If everything was true, the Parasitic Spiritual Herb was definitely a priceless treasure.

“Master Ou, if you can bring this flower inside, I guarantee that I’ll provide you with a drop of concentrated immortal liquid every day.” The lazy turtle looked eagerly at him.

“It won’t be easy to cultivate this thing. Can you keep it alive?” Ou Yangming scoffed.

“Don’t worry.” The lazy turtle quickly assured him. “I’m a spirit turtle, so there isn’t any spiritual herb that I can’t grow.”

Ou Yangming withdrew his mental conception from the Long Feather Band. He turned to look at Big Yellow, then he sighed and commented, “Old friend, you found something amazing again.”

Immortal liquids were exceptionally valuable among the Humans. As for concentrated immortal liquids, they were treasures that had not been heard of. Since they discovered such a spiritual herb during their adventure in the spiritual realm, it was a worthy trip.

A saber-light flashed from Ou Yangming’s hand as he dug out the entire tree and sent it into the Long Feather Band.

It was worth noting that the Long Feather Band—an interspatial treasure—was the only thing that could accommodate such an enormous tree. As for how the lazy turtle would handle the treasure, it would not be Ou Yangming’s concern.
