Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 436 - Armor With Two Skills

Chapter 436 Armor With Two Skills

Jiang Jiumei’s narrative was plain as if everything was normal and had happened naturally. Nonetheless, Ou Yangming and his companions knew her experience was not as simple as it sounded. After all, she went from a weak lady without martial art skills to a Supreme Great Ancestor in just a year.
Even with the best inheritance and the most remarkable talent, Jiang Jiumei must have suffered a lot of hardships too.
Despite that, the young lady did not bring up her difficulties.
The other people including the noble Wu Hanning became fond of the smart and tough young lady almost immediately.
Needless to say, it was also because Jiang Jiumei was a Supreme Great Ancestor. An extremely talented and tenacious cultivator would also be revered.
Ou Yangming glanced at Jiang Jiumei quickly but that was all he needed to do to acquire the information he was looking for.
Jiang Jiumei was flustered when she sensed the young fellow scanning her like that.
If anyone else had looked at her the same way, she would have been very displeased. Although killing was not in her nature, she would leave in anger.
However, she quietly accepted it and did not take it to heart because Ou Yangming was the one who looked at her.
Zuoqiu Hongyuan furrowed his eyebrows as he was disgruntled. Nevertheless, he chose to keep quiet, especially because the three fierce creatures were present. On the other hand, Wu Hanning, Ni Yinghong, and the others knew there was a reason Ou Yangming acted like that. Sure enough, after pondering for a long time, Ou Yangming opened up his interspatial bag and retrieved some materials from it, then he began smithing in front of the others.
His Military Fire carried endless powers and an incredibly unique aura.
The instant his Military Fire burned, the three formidable creatures fell silent. In particular, the goshawk lowered its head as though it was disrespectful for it to look at the fire. Judging from the goshawk’s behavior, it was hard to believe that it was a mighty spirit beast.
A creature would become more confident as it grew stronger. Given the goshawk’s power, it almost did not fear anything in this world.
That said, faced with the Military Fire, it became more obedient than the most compliant person in the world.
As the Military Fire burned, the peculiar stone softened in a split second and transformed into an armor according to Ou Yangming’s wish.
The armor was slightly different from the ones usually worn by males because certain areas were adjusted accordingly.
Ou Yangming’s performance did not end there because he imprinted two Skill Runes on the armor as soon as it was formed. Yes, he attached the runes for the Indestructible Defense skill, as well as another special skill known as the Air Flow Defense.
The latter was a power contributed by a Supreme Great Ancestor from the capital. Once the skill was used, an air wall would be formed around one’s body.
Even though the Air Wall Defense was inferior to the Indestructible Defense, the two together could result in a stacked effect, which would be surprising
Ou Yangming exhaled deeply and curbed his Military Fire, then he handed the armor to Jiang Jiumei. “Jiumei, try it on.”
Jiang Jiumei accepted the armor cheerfully and instantly noticed that it was not as hot as she imagined it to be. In fact, the armor’s temperature was simply normal.
She cast a strange look at Ou Yangming. Since she had joined a renowned sect, she was not ill-informed at all.
Therefore, she was curious about the reason Ou Yangming could control the temperature of a piece of newly-smithed equipment.
There were great blacksmiths in the Mysterious Mirror Sect too, but they could not be mentioned on equal terms with Ou Yangming.
All of a sudden, Jiang Jiumei blushed as she held the armor in her hands.
Ou Yangming urged her, “Jiumei, try it on first. If it’s not suitable, I’ll change it for you.”
An ordinary armor could be worn by anyone, but it would not be as comfortable and as sturdy as a custom-made one.
NI Yinghong approached Jiang Jiumei and held her hand. “Jiumei, come with me.”
Jiang Jiumei nodded with a red face, then she followed Ni Yinghong to the back of Multi-armed King Kong’s enormous body.
The spirit beast had such a massive build, so much so that the two ladies were completely hidden from view by just standing behind its leg.
Bai Shixue chuckled and asked, “Brother Ou, you must’ve become silly. Were you expecting Jiumei to change her clothes here?”
Ou Yangming slapped his forehead and sighed. “Ah, being a lady can be quite troublesome…”
The young fellow or any other man would have put on the armor on the spot even if ladies were present, but it was different for ladies. Much of their precious time was wasted on things Ou Yangming regarded as unnecessary. Of course, Ou Yangming could not say his thoughts out loud or he would be offending half of the people in the country.
Jiang Jiumei and Ni Yinghong returned after some time. Miss Jiang’s face was still slightly red, but she looked heroic in the armor.
Zuoqiu Hongyuan and Ou Yangming were attracted at once because the armor was too fitting, and it displayed her perfect figure very well.
Ou Yangming curbed his thought and said, “Jiumei, try using the skill.”
“Yes,” Jiang Jiumei responded embarrassedly, then she waved her hand gently. With her as the center, a ring emerged around her. It was not quite large as it seemed to be attached to her body. Even so, everyone knew the ring was exceptionally tough, such that it could not be easily destroyed by Multi-armed King Kong, let alone normal Supreme Great Ancestors.
With that, the other people exclaimed as they knew how valuable the ring was.
Wu Hanning and the others were not too surprised because they had witnessed Ou Yangming’s remarkable ability in smithing art. The young fellow had smithed 100 magic skill tools in the past, so they had somewhat become immune to these pieces of equipment.
On the contrary, Zuoqiu Hongyuan widened his eyes and rubbed them as he mumbled, “A skill —that’s a magic skill tool…”
The young man came from the Zuoqiu family, which dominated one of the Humans’ eight counties. Nonetheless, even a landlord did not have extra food to spare; not to mention magic skill tools, Zuoqiu Hongyuan could not even obtain the most basic magic tool.
Hence, he became agitated when he witnessed Ou Yangming smith a magic skill tool without any effort. ‘A magic skill tool…
“Am I seeing this right!’
Next, the puzzled Jiang Jiumei waved her hand again.
Her armor released a yellow light right away. It enveloped her body and underwent a cross-interaction with the ring earlier, causing the ring to turn yellow.
“Indestructible Defense!”
“Woof!”
Big Yellow barked due to excitement. It was this close to pointing at the light to tell everyone that the ability belonged to it.
Wu Hanning and the others subconsciously exchanged glances because they could tell how important Jiang Jiumei was to Ou Yangming.
Ou Yangming had indeed given several pieces of equipment to Wu Hanning, Bai Shixue, and the others during this meet, but Ni Yinghong was the only one that was given an equipment set containing magic tools.
Besides, apart from Ou Yangming and Ni Yinghong, Jiang Jiumei was the only other person to be given an armor layered with two skills.
However, Wu Hanning and Bai Shixue would not express their dissatisfaction. They secretly remembered this moment and adjusted their mindsets.
They would have to treat Jiang Jiumei nicely in the future.
“Big Yellow,” Ou Yangming called out to the big yellow dog. The big yellow dog immediately understood him, so it opened its mouth and released an invisible energy wave. Earlier on, it counterattacked with its Skill Equipment as it did not want to show a weak impression. While the equipment was powerful, it was easier for it to use its naturally-gifted skill.
Following that, over ten giant stone awls emerged from the ground, and they were later aimed at Jiang Jiumei.
Just as Jiang Jiumei subconsciously wanted to dodge, she noticed Ou Yangming giving her a look of assurance. As such, she stood still without any hesitation. The young lady had just acknowledged Ou Yangming as his elder brother, but she strongly believed that he would not harm her.
“Bam…”
Thunderous sounds were heard as the stone awls crashed into the light ring. They broke into pieces.
The light ring around Jiang Jiumei flickered intensely and only disappeared after all of the stone awls shattered into pieces. The yellow light on the armor dimmed at this moment, but it withstood the attacks from the stone awls. As a result, Jiang Jiumei was not hurt at all, to the extent that she did not even feel much impact. It was evident that the defensive power was Ou Yangming’s limit of creation for the time being.
In other words, unless Jiang Jiumei encountered a humongous creature like Multi-armed King Kong, which would attack with brute force, she would not be threatened by other spirit beasts at all.
“Th-this…” Jiang Jiumei’s eyes gleamed, and she looked gratefully at Ou Yangming. “Thank you, Elder Brother!”
Ou Yangming laughed out loud. “Since I’m your elder brother, must you be so polite?”
Jiang Jiuming flushed. She had not agreed to become Ou Yangming’s younger sister because she was after these pieces of equipment; she had simply transferred her feelings for her biological brother to his comrade. That being said, what Ou Yangming gave in return was destined to exceed her expectations.
