  “Woosh, woosh…”

  An enormous change, which was like monstrous waves, took place in the place that could not be sensed by outsiders. Through Ou Yangming’s guide and adjustments, the surging mental power charged out endlessly to the outside world in the swiftest and the most violent way.

  This was the usage of mental power, and Ou Yangming had once released it after he received pointers from Elder Universe.

  While mental power could give out unmatched forceful might the instant Heaven and Earth’s forces were collected, there was an innate restriction to it.

  During the moment of release, the process of gathering Heaven and Earth’s forces must not be disturbed.

  Ou Yangming did not lack strength yet, but he was almost at that stage.

  Ordinary people could not really hurt Ou Yangming because of his Fine Grade equipment set, but if the big multicolored tiger slapped him, he would be on the brink of death even if he did not die immediately.

  This was because the damage was not only inflicted on his body, but also on his mental power where he would suffer a backlash.

  Due to the big tiger’s threat, Ou Yangming decided to employ his mental power. He was entrusting his life to his comrade.

  Ou Yangming believed that his partner could stall the big multicolored tiger for thirty breaths, which was why he could fully focus and gave his all to brew the ultimate killing skill.

  Hints of mental power drifted in the void, and with the help of the Military Fire’s unique property, endless energy of the fire mastery was attracted from the void.

  A small fireball suddenly appeared between Ou Yangming hands, and it was visibly enlarging at the speed of light. “This isn’t enough—stronger. This isn’t enough-stronger!” Ou Yangming estimated the half-spirit beast’s might while his mental power gushed continuously into the fireball and attracted more energy.

  Everything seemed very slow, but he had actually completed the process in twenty breaths.

  By then, the mental power in the fireball had already achieved a third of Ou Yangming’s consciousness. He had a feeling that this was already his achievable limit, so if he continued to channel more power, the only outcome would be the fireball’s explosion.

  When Ou Yangming first released his mental power to draw the fireball, he did not control it very well, but during his second try, he had a little more energy to recognize the situation.

  He flashed and dashed out from behind the big tree.

  In the fight, He Liangce did not disappoint him; the young master had kept the big multicolored tiger on the same spot. Ou Yangming could not figure out how He Liangce did it, but he yelled, “Back away now!”

  Instead of keeping his consciousness inside, he quickly released it to merge with his surroundings.

  With the integration of Heaven and man, as well as the thoroughly meticulous state, even the slightest change in this area would be picked up by Ou Yangming. Moreover, he was also constantly calculating in his head.

  He Liangce flew back as fast as he could.

  The moment he was past the crucial point, Ou Yangming swung his hand hard to launch the nearly uncontrollable fireball.

  “Woosh…”

  The fireball was exceptionally fast, its speed could not be put into words. It was even more horrifying that the fireball seemed to have been controlled by an unseen power, hence the big multicolored tiger could not evade it no matter how it tried to hide.

  With that, the tiger and the snake were subconsciously petrified.

  For some reason, they were appalled by the fireball that came out of nowhere, but just as the half-spirit beast wanted to dodge it, an inexpressible pressure suppressed it first. The fireball contained an enormous amount of energy, and the mental power that it released was threatening and harmful.

  Next, the fireball finally hit the beast.

  Ou Yangming had aimed at the big multicolored tiger’s head and neck. A deafening explosion was heard as the fireball exploded, causing the big tiger’s neck to be blown off of its body. Consequently, the tiger’s head soared into the sky while the bottom of its neck was burnt.

  Countless sparks of fire filled the air, and they lit up fallen leaves and dry branches on the ground when they fell. If the sparks fell to the trees around them, they burnt the trees in huge flames.

  The fire did not seem like it was from the mortal world-it was a destructive fire that could wipe out everything.

  He Liangce’s face took on a ghastly expression. He shifted his body repeatedly to avoid the sparks like a ghost.

  That said, he noticed a figure through the corner of his eyes.

  Ou Yangming was running everywhere in a flash. His speed was tip-top, and wherever he went, the flames around him became attracted to his body like iron filings being attracted by a magnet.

  After running one whole round, all the flames disappeared.

  As He Liangce quietly watched the burnt environment and the big multicolored tiger’s carcass, there was an obscure look in his eyes.

  ‘I didn’t expect Ou Yangming to have such a trump card. He needed a long time to prepare it, but… If he used this against it? Can he succeed in one swoop?’ When Ou Yangming noticed He Liangce being deep in thoughts, he flashed a proud smile. ‘So what if you’re a Yang Grade martial artist? I was the one who did the final ultimate kill.’

  He kicked with the tip of his toe and grabbed his spear, which was the only treasure that did not fear the burst of fire.

  Ou Yangming walked with confidence toward the big multicolored tiger’s carcass.

  At the spur of the moment, He Liangce screamed as he recalled something, “Be careful!”

  Before his voice had died away, a flash of black light was seen on the big tiger’s carcass, where the snakehead suddenly sprung up to bite Ou Yangming.

  Despite that, the young fellow seemed to be well-prepared; he prodded his spear at the creature.

  If the big multicolored tiger was still alive, the agile snake could still resist its energy. Since the tiger had died, the snake could not turn around freely anymore, and its power had also greatly declined.

  Ou Yangming jabbed the spear tip at a point that was 7 inches below the snakehead.

  The tough magic tool pierced through the venomous snake mercilessly and pinned it to the ground.

  Even as the venomous snake twisted its body, it could not break free from the tiger’s body, and it finally stopped moving after some time.

  Chapter 203 Underestimated

  He Liangce looked deeply at Ou Yangming. ‘This young fella seems rash, but he’s full of strategies. Most importantly, he has a formidable trump card that can be used to eliminate a strong enemy.’ “Mental power. I’ve heard rumors in the prefecture, but I didn’t expect you to be the person who set the fire at Elder Universe’s residence,” He Liangce remarked.

  Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “I’m not so bold; it was Elder Universe who asked me to try.”

  “Hehe, I’m afraid that old senior didn’t know he was testing a freak too,” He Liangce commented with a smile.

  After settling the fearsome half-spirit beast, they were both in a cheerful mood.

  Ou Yangming chuckled and stepped forward to pull out his spear from the ground, then he brushed it at the end of the tiger’s tail. He used his force wonderfully such that the spear tip slit the tail as if the tail was slashed by a saber.

  He Liangce’s eyelids twitched, and he asked with a deep voice, “A magic tool?”

  ‘If it isn’t a magic tool, how can it be so sharp?’

  Ou Yangming nodded and warned, “This venomous snake is a bit strange, so it’s best to be cautious.” He used his spear like a dagger as he opened the snakehead and retrieved an inner core from it. Nonetheless, the core was only the size of a quail’s egg, which was not worth mentioning.

  “Brother He, how much do you understand half-spirit beasts?” Ou Yangming asked as he looked at the inner cor
e in his hand.

  “A lot,” He Liangce answered and sighed. “From the day I became sensible, I was already in touch with knowledge in this aspect.”

  Ou Yangming looked at him in shock and thought, ‘This disciple from an influential family is abnormal!’ “There are many species of half-spirit beasts, but if they’re categorized according to their natural gifts, there are mainly two types.” He Liangce ignored the unusual look in Ou Yangming’s eyes. He glanced at the big multicolored tiger and explained, “One of the species has an outrageously powerful physique, so if an ordinary person encounters a half-spirit beast like this, it’ll be a disaster.”

  Ou Yangming pouted his lips and said, “Brother He, since you can contend with it for so long, you’re not an ordinary person.” He Liangce laughed and said, “Brother Ou, you were able to eliminate it in one move, so you’re not an ordinary person too.”

  They looked at each other and smiled, but their faces quickly froze as they were embarrassed. He Liangce immediately changed the topic. “Another type of spirit beast possesses a unique natural gift of mental power. Spirit beasts like that can communicate with Heaven and Earth’s power to perform various wonderful techniques. Brother Ou, you must be extra careful if you stumble upon a half-spirit beast like that one day.”

  Ou Yangming nodded in agreement.

  Back when he and the big yellow dog came across the Chaos Cave’s Black Magic Crawlers, the crawlers left an extremely deep impression on him. He and the yellow dog had only passed the hurdle by chance, and while they both received great rewards, it was such a disastrous experience that they almost did not survive.

  What if the big multicolored tiger met the crawlers?

  The ordinary crawlers might not be able to bite through the big tiger’s body with their mouthparts.

  Under absolute power and speed, a person whose cultivation base is below the big tiger’s would be killed right away unless one fathomed the integration of Heaven and man like Ou Yangming and He Liangce – who could contend with the tiger with help from their surroundings.

  As for half-spirit beasts like Big Yellow, who possessed all sorts of peculiar abilities, it was even tougher to deal with them. The only thing one could do in the face of such beasts was to be exceptionally careful.

  Following that, Ou Yangming approached the tiger and reached out his hand to search without bothering about the blood. He obtained an inner core too, but it was much larger than the snake’s core.

  He tossed the tiger’s core to He Liangce and asked, “Brother He, the tiger’s core belongs to you while the snake’s core and the beast’s body belongs to me. Are you okay with that?”

  “The most valuable thing in a half spirit beast is its inner core, so you’re going to suffer a loss if you distribute them like that,” He Liangce expressed after a moment of hesitation.

  “You fought it alone and stalled it for such a long time, which makes you the real contributor. I think this is the most appropriate way of distributing them.” Ou Yangming smiled, then he retrieved a bag of specially made powder and began spreading the powder all over the tiger’s body.

  It was a type of medicine from the military, which was spread on a half-spirit beast’s body to preserve its flesh and blood’s essence to the greatest extent. Also, the smell of blood would not linger in the air too.

  Once Ou Yangming was done, he requested after some thought, “Brother He, please wait a moment.”

  He flashed into the dense forest again.

  He Liangce was curious, but he did not follow the young fellow and waited quietly on the spot.

  Ou Yangming ran out happily after 15 minutes with a bamboo stick in his hand. Judging from the bamboo’s freshness, he had just chopped it down.

  “You went in to find this bamboo.” He Liangce furrowed his eyebrows.

  “Yes. This spear is prepared for General Chen Yifan. Hehe, but if it’s possible, I’d like to smith one for my own use too!” Ou Yangming explained.

  He Liangce shook his head and asked, “Didn’t you look for the half-spirit beast’s lair just now?”

  Ou Yangming was stunned, and he smiled embarrassedly. “I’m not familiar with these, so how about you go and take a look?”

  “Okay, wait here.” He Liangce looked deeply at him, then he entered the dense forest too, but he began to think highly of Ou Yangming

  Earlier on, it was fine that Ou Yangming did not think about the big multicolored tiger’s lair. However, when he found out about it, he even asked He Liangce to look for the place instead.

  He Liangce was glad to have Ou Yangming’s trust.

  Sure enough, his understanding of half-spirit beasts was superior to Ou Yangming’s, so he returned with a bag of items after a short while.

  Ou Yangming was already carrying the half-spirit beast’s carcass. He picked up his spear and the bamboo as he uttered, “Let’s go.”

  He Liangce was startled, and he questioned as he was surprised, “Don’t you want to know what I found in its lair?”

  “Since they’re with you, they won’t be lost.” Ou Yangming chuckled and added after a pause, “Elder Sister Ying must be worried sick, so I’ll be making a move first.”

  Subsequently, he jumped and traveled away at the speed of light.

  He Liangce shook his head a little, then he quickly followed behind Ou Yangming.

  Although Ou Yangming still held a grudge against the graceful man behind him when he mentioned Ni Yinghong, there was a 180-degree change in his mentality.

  He wanted to overwhelm He Liangce openly and let Ni Yinghong marry him on her own will.

  Since Ou Yangming and He Liangce had both apprehended the way of nature, they were obstructed during their journey even though the forest was dense.

  Ou Yangming sped up because he missed Ni Yinghong, but He Liangce did not show a weak impression at all as he stayed close to Ou Yangming without lagging behind.

  At last, Ou Yangming slowed down a bit because he saw through the Vision +5 attribute in his helmet the beautiful lady ahead.

  “Elder Sister Ying, I’m back!” Ou Yangming laughed to express his joy.

  Ni Yinghong, who was initially anxious, instantly stopped frowning and flashed a bright smile.

  She opened her mouth when she looked in the direction where the voice came from, and her eyes were teary again.

  “Woosh…”

  Ou Yangming emerged from the trees in the end and strode toward Ni Yinghong.

  At that moment, he forgot about the big multicolored tiger on him, as well as He Liangce, who was behind him. Ou Yangming only had one person on his mind-the elegant figure that could fill his heart.

  Ou Yangming dropped the big multicolored tiger carcass to the ground and opened his arms to hug Ni Yinghong tightly.

  Ni Yinghong did not reject him at all. She smiled merrily and buried her head into his chest. Even though Ou Yangming’s armor was ice-cold, it could not stop their passion for each other.

  On the other hand, He Liangce slowed down and shook his head with a helpless sigh.

  He was rather moved by their genuine feelings for each other, but how would they choose when that moment arrived?

  After an unknown period of time, Ni Yinghong finally calmed down.

  Once she was in the right mind again, she pushed Ou Yangming’s chest. Ou Yangming laughed and let go of her when he felt her power. Ni Yinghong was charming as she blushed. Her bright and lively eyes vividly displayed her sweet character, as well as her unmatched beauty.

  While Ou Yangming let go of her, he still had her arms around her waist. The young fellow turned his head to look behind him and lifted his chin as though he was showing dominance.

  Ni Yinghong trembled a little but quickly stopped.

  Ou Yangming naturally sensed her behavior, but he was elated.

  “Lil’ Ming, you… Elder Brother, you’ve returned too?” Ni Yinghong asked.

  “Hehe, thank you for your concern, Young Sister. I’ve returned.” He Liangce wa
lked out from behind a big tree looking helpless.

  With that, Ni Yinghong’s face turned even redder. She was abashed and furious when she recalled how she and Ou Yangming were hugging passionately in front of another person. The young lady rolled her eyes at Ou Yangming, who only responded with a hollow laugh.

  The graceful and beautiful lady with a heroic bearing was too shy to look at the young men.

  Nevertheless, Ni Yinghong soon noticed a large item on the ground. She blinked as she thought it was extremely familiar, then she finally exclaimed, “Is this a half-spirit beast?”

  He Liangce twitched his mouth and thought, “This young lady only had eyes for Ou Yangming. She didn’t even notice the big multicolored tiger.’ Ou Yangming was proud. After all, what made him happier than being able to show up to his sweetheart?

  Ni Yinghong was astonished when he looked at the two men, and her feelings at that moment were indescribable.

  It was already surprising that the two young men could escape from the mighty half-spirit beast, but they actually joined hands and eliminated the beast, who was equivalent to a great ancestor…

  Ni Yinghong came to a sudden realization that she had truly underestimated them.

  Chapter 204 Ambushed Shortly After Exiting The Forest

  He Liangce put down the bag in his hand and said, “Come take a look at what I found in the tiger’s lair.”

  Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong were moved because they knew He Liangce would not have informed them so formally if he did not make an important discovery in the lair.

  Nonetheless, they were stunned when they saw the items inside the bag.

  Roughly ten little… Bamboo shoots were placed inside the bag. “Are these bamboos?” Ni Yinghong’s eyes lit up as she exclaimed.

  He Liangce nodded. “That’s right. Once these things grow, they’ll become strange bamboos, but they’re still young now.” “Why were these bamboo shoots in the half-spirit beast’s lair?” Ni Yinghong furrowed her eyebrows and asked in confusion.

  “I’m not sure either, but the enormous energy contained in these shoots is extremely rare.” He Liangce shook his head with a bitter smile and suggested after a pause, “We can let an apothecary inspect them once we go back. If I guessed it right, they can probably be used to refine some uncommon medicine.”
