Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 251 - Devour The Crystal Ball

Chapter 251 Devour The Crystal Ball
The sea of consciousness was a rather peculiar place.
Even if a person was dissected alive, one could not find it through the naked eye.
Nonetheless, although the place could not be seen through the naked eye, a person with great mental power could sense it and utilize it to cultivate mental power.
Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness was becoming more out of the ordinary. Apart from the crystal ball and a substantial amount of mental power, many purple lights were stored in the space.
The lights were attributes-various attributes that he had transferred from other pieces of abandoned equipment.
Other than Sharpness, Toughness, and other Common Attributes, there were also many Power, Agility, Vision, and other Unique Attributes.
As Ou Yangming’s strength slowly increased, his sea of consciousness seemed to have grown broader, and there were more purple spaces to accommodate more attributes.
Out of all the purple lights, Ou Yangming valued a kind of attribute the most.
The Devouring attribute.
This was the other key that allowed Ou Yangming to rise above many other powerhouses.
In the past, the Devouring attribute could not function when he fixed it to a certain weapon. This time, the purple light that wrapped around the attribute was actively jumping.
Ou Yangming suppressed the intense sudden urge in his heart, and he carefully calculated his gains and losses.
He finally decided after a long time.
Eventually, three purple lights floated in his sea of consciousness.
Ou Yangming acquired a total of four Fire-absorbing Badges, where he withdrew 4 Points of Devouring attributes. Other than the 1 Point he left for Big Yellow, the remaining 3 Points were stored in his mind.
According to the Devouring attribute’s feature, the higher its point, the more effective it was.
Given that the crystal ball was the first treasure that could be preserved in his sea of consciousness, he was naturally not going to waste it.
Under his mental conception’s guide, the three purple lights finally gathered.
Ou Yangming had never made such an attempt in his sea of consciousness because he stored the different attributes separately in the past. Now, the young fellow was going to layer some attributes in his consciousness, and he was doing it without any equipment.
The lights closed in to the center bit by bit. The instant the purple lights touched, their core crashed and crumbled while their surfaces shattered inch by inch. As they drew closer to each other again, the shattered parts grew bigger.
Nevertheless, the other parts of the lights remained the same regardless of the shatters.
It was as though the lights were separated into different areas, where one area could not affect another area.
Ou Yangming was witnessing such a peculiar scene for the first time, but he was unperturbed as he let the shattered parts spread. The bits did not disappear as they spread outward along with the broken areas. It was as if there was a strong attraction force above the lights so that they were attracted by the surrounding
When the shatters expand to a certain area, they came into contact with one another from the other lights. Therefore, all the fragments started to merge and gradually form a larger light ball.
Ou Yangming twitched his mouth. It never dawned on him that the purple lights in his sea of consciousness could be successfully layered through the odd method.
When he sensed the attribute contained in the giant purple light ball, he was certain that it was the layering effect of the Devouring +3 attribute.
Ou Yangming composed himself and controlled the light ball to draw it closer toward the crystal ball.
The crystal ball did not know it was going to face imminent disaster. Perhaps his purple fire had previously fully removed the forceful and wicked giant eye’s willpower, the crystal ball became the most impeccable spiritual crystal.
“Woosh…”
A sound could not be made in the sea of consciousness, but Ou Yangming made up the Devouring attribute’s sound himself.
The thing seemed to have a strong desire for the crystal ball, which made Ou Yangming alert.
‘How can an attribute behave so weirdly? I know too little about the Devouring attribute and the Fire-absorbing Badge.’
Despite how careful Ou Yangming was, the merged Devouring attribute finally approached the crystal ball and devoured it at once.
Yes. Ou Yangming “saw” the entire process clearly.
When the giant purple light got close to the crystal ball, the three connected junctions split abruptly. A light tunnel that exceeded the crystal ball was revealed, and it instantly sucked in the ball.
Next, the purple light glowed.
Yes, the light ball’s surface radiated lights with unparalleled intensity.
The lights were unordinary. When they shone in the sea of consciousness, Ou Yangming felt exceptionally comfortable.
It was an indescribable feeling of pleasure. Every sense on his body seemed to be strongly affected at this moment, making him feel thoroughly comfortable.
Ou Yangming felt great pleasure too when he absorbed a half-spirit beast’s flesh and blood. However, when the Devouring attribute digested the crystal ball and released power, he felt like he was becoming immortal.
In fact, the past feelings from the Devouring attribute seemed insignificant as compared to this moment.
Ou Yangming’s eyes were still closed, but he was no longer alert because it was so enjoyable that he almost passed out.
One who never experienced the feeling would never understand it because it could no longer be put into words.
Hu Yicheng and Scholar Xu sat in the same carriage in the convoy, and they were conversing softly. At the spur of the moment, they turned to look behind as they were struck dumb.
Outside the carriage, the Yin Grade cavaliers sensed the same thing almost at the same time, hence they turned to look at ou Yangming’s carriage too.
They sensed a peculiar power at that instant.
The power came from Ou Yangming’s carriage, but it was not suppressive at all. Moreover, they felt spirited when the power brushed past their bodies.
It would not be difficult for a martial artist to journey for nearly a whole day but if one kept traveling for more than a year, the accumulated exhaustion could not be treated lightly. That said, when the power was released from the carriage, everyone else had the same feeling
They felt more relaxed as if they just had a hot spring bath, scrubbed their backs, and had a full body massage by an expert. Their piled-up weariness from running everywhere with their superiors for more than a year seemed to have gotten wings; they flew away.
As a result, their energy, essence, and spirit were recovered to the peak state right away.
Under this situation, even if they encountered the dwarf or more swordsmen, they would be confident to fight.
Needless to say, having confidence was one thing; nobody could guarantee how the fight would end.
The Yin Grade cavaliers could sense the source of the change; the remaining ordinary Force Grade cavaliers could enjoy the huge benefit, but they were not capable enough to notice the origin of the magical power fluctuation.
Everyone looked at each other. They were surprised yet overjoyed, but they could not really describe their feelings.
Hu Yicheng and Scholar Xu exchanged glances and were secretly frightened.
‘What’s this method? Why was it unheard of?’
Sir Hu quickly pondered, ‘If this energy is applied to an army in a war, won’t it show immediate results?’
Hu Lingfeng quietly approached their carriage and uttered softly, “Sir Xu, we…”
Scholar Xu waved his hand without any hesitation. “We’re not at our rest stop yet, so nobody’s allowed to disturb Young Ou.”
“Yes, we won’t disturb… Uncle Ou.” Hu Lingfeng was stunned.
He was Hu Yicheng’s nephew, and Sir Hu was considered his closest relative. Since Hu Yicheng recognized Ou Yangming as a brother, Hu Lingfeng had to address Ou Yangming as an uncle.
Nonetheless, before this, as thick-faced as Hu Lingfeng was, he could not bring himself to say that.
After he felt the bizarre power and experienced the enormous change from it, he became completely convinced.
Moreover, he vaguely had a hidden thought at the moment.
‘Having an uncle like him will only bring me more and greater benefits in the future.’
Once Hu Lingfeng left, Scholar Xu chuckled and remarked, “Lingfeng has finally grown up. Brother He, your painstaking effort of appointing him as the head cavalier isn’t wasted.”
Hu Yicheng nodded in agreement. “Yes, face is the most useless thing in this world. If he still couldn’t put down his face this time, he might as well return to his hometown to be a rich man.”
Scholar Xu shook his head. “Brother Hu, children will take care of themselves when they grow up. You’re worrying too much.”
“That’s what I’ve been doing my whole life. What else can I do if I don’t think for them?” Hu Yicheng smiled bitterly. He later lowered his voice and expressed seriously, “Brother Xu, Young Ou is…”
“I have no idea either, but it’s simply unbelievable.” Scholar Xu forced a smile too, then he added after a pause, “But I suggest that we make them swear to not say a word about today’s events to anyone else.”
Hu Yicheng was dumbfounded, but he finally nodded after some thought.
After witnessing Ou Yangming’s strength and potential, they set the most basic standard; they must not offend the young fellow no matter what, and they must avoid making him angry.
As such, forbidding this matter from being spread would at least save them from offending Ou Yangming.
It was true that one would be highly rewarded for becoming friends with a powerhouse, but one had to be careful not to bring trouble upon oneself because of momentary negligence.
