“Creak.” Ou Yangming pushed the door open.
Once he entered the room, he sat with his legs crossed and immersed himself inside his spiritual world with a flash of thought. After visualizing for some time, the snow mountain had become more majestic, where cold winds were constantly crying at the peak, and the mountain was always growing taller. When the young fellow visualized the snow mountain at this moment, even the temperature inside the room plunged.
His white outfit fluttered in the wind, and he carried a graceful bearing as if he was a deity.
After half an hour, Ou Yangming slowly came out of his meditation. A fleeting luster could be seen in his eyes.
While cold air was still in his chest, he moved the wick inside the tongue of a flame with a bamboo stick. The wick split into 2 right away, and the room became much brighter.
Ou Yangming breathed out and sensed the 2 light spots inside his spiritual world. ‘King Kong, how is it? Did you notice anything abnormal?’
Multi-armed King Kong was sitting on a bluestone. It distorted the lights around it with its mental power as though they became transparent, then it observed the Wu family before it answered in the spiritual world, “Everything’s normal; there aren’t any abnormalities.”
The goshawk and Big Yellow were sitting next to Multi-armed King Kong, which enveloped them with its mental power, hence nobody from the Wu family noticed them. After all, the king kong was a Venerable One, and it also overcame 6 Heavenly Thunderbolts. It was only revealing a small part of its abilities at the moment.
Ou Yangming nodded and said softly inside his spiritual world. “Keep an eye at all times and don’t miss any detail.”
“Yes!” Multi-armed King Kong nodded hard. The goshawk and Big Yellow also observed their surroundings with solemn looks on their faces.
After a peaceful night, the morning sunlight shone on the mountains and drove darkness away.
A graceful figure was accompanied by a ray of sunlight as she walked from afar. She had a charming face and a sexy figure, and she looked like the most gorgeous red flower in her red outfit. After arriving at Ou Yangming’s room, the lady curled her lips and smiled faintly.
Slow knocks were heard on the door as she knocked with her fingers. They were not loud, hence one would not be offended.
The lady asked softly, “Big Brother Yu, are you awake?”
Ou Yangming had just finished washing up. He stretched and opened the door, then he asked with sleepy eyes, “Younger Sister Xuanle, why are you already awake at this hour?”
Xue Xuanle rolled her eyes and grinned. “The sky’s already bright, so it’s not early at all. Today’s the start of the Hunting Meet that’s held in Huixun City once in 3 years. Do you want to participate in it, Big Brother Yu? The Hunting Meet has great rewards!” She blinked as she tempted the young fellow.
“The Hunting Meet?” Ou Yangming asked in a high pitch and looked at Xue Xuanle.
Xue Xuanle smiled sneakily and shivered on purpose to change the topic. “It’s so cold outside. Aren’t you going to let me in? I’m about to freeze to my death.” Ever since she gained the Wu family’s protection, where her life was no longer threatened, she regained her character as a young lady.
Ou Yangming was dumbfounded. He could not help but laugh after that. “I was being ignorant. Quickly come in, quickly come in.”
After pouring a cup of tea for Xue Xuanle, he asked curiously, “Younger Sister Xuanle, what’s the Hunting Meet?” He then thought to himself, ‘Since it’s a hunt, I suppose it’s related to the Forest of Death behind Huixun City.’
Xue Xuanle elegantly took a sip of tea. Instead of answering in a hurry, she asked the young fellow instead, “Huixun City’s a big city that was built by rogue cultivators, and it has an extremely strong business atmosphere. You’re aware of this, right?”
Ou Yangming nodded and tapped the table with his finger. “Yes, I’m aware. Is this related to the event?”
Xue Xuanle breathed out some hot air and replied to him with a smile, “Of course! The Forest of Death behind Huixun City has endless opportunities and a big secret. The spirit beasts deep inside the forest have lost their wisdom, and the spiritual Qi inside such a spirit beast will condense into a blood crystal that gathers the universe’s nature. It’s a specialty in Huixun City, and it’s very popular. As such, the Hunting Meet is held for cultivators to obtain these blood crystals.”
Ou Yangming nodded as if he was deep in thought. He then asked, “What about the rewards that you were talking about before this?”
“It was said that the clan that finishes first can obtain an incredibly unique smithing material, which is given by the Beyond Heaven Pavilion, but I don’t know what it is.” Xue Xuanle did not finish what she wanted to say. She twisted her body a little.
‘A unique smithing material.’ Ou Yangming’s eyes lit up. Ever since the runes on the Blood Condensation Spear self-exploded, he no longer had a convenient weapon to use. After pondering for a while, he asked softly, “Younger Sister Xuanle, have you joined the Hunting Meet before?”
Xue Xuanle shook her head rather regretfully. “No, I haven’t. I heard that Big Uncle participated in it once, but his result was terrible. Big Brother Yu, if you’d like to join, you must quickly register now, or you’ll be too late.”
“Alright, let’s go!” Ou Yangming nodded after some thought and got up from his chair. Before his voice had even disappeared, he walked outside the room.
Xue Xuanle followed behind him. Her outfit was gorgeous and as red as blood. With that, they left the Wu family one after another.
The streets in Huixun City were bustling and packed with people. Stores could be seen on both sides of the streets, by which one would be dazzled as there were plenty of items.
Xue Xuanle squeezed the corner of her shirt with her right hand as she asked softly, “Big Brother Yu, do you plan to join the Hunting Meet as a rogue cultivator or under a clan?” She looked at Ou Yangming while they walked toward the registration area.
Ou Yangming asked after thinking for a long time, “Is there a difference?”
“Of course! One that registers as a rogue cultivator will suffer a huge loss since one will be alone. On the other hand, if one joins the Hunting Meet under a clan, teams of at most 6 people can be formed, which will be more efficient.” She slapped her full breasts as she explained.
Ou Yangming’s eyes flickered. Perhaps other rogue cultivators would be on their own, but he had Big Yellow, the goshawk, and Multi-armed King Kong. Even though the big yellow dog had the lowest cultivation base, it would not be much weaker than Advanced Spiritualists after it put on its suit.
Before long, Ou Yangming and Xue Xuanle arrived at the square in front of the Beyond Heaven Pavilion.
The young fellow looked around and made a brief calculation, then he sighed and thought, ‘80% of them are Rudimentary Spiritualists and Intermediate Spiritualists while the remaining 20% of them are Advanced Spiritualists. If I were to get Multi-armed King Kong’s help, wouldn’t I be bullying them?’
He suppressed the thought and squeezed through the crowd to get to a porcelain table. He asked a lady with light makeup, “I’d like to participate in the Hunting Meeting. What should I do?”
The lady wore a long emerald-green skirt and looked slim and gentle. When she pursed her lips, 2 dimples could even be seen on her face, making her look gentler than before. “Young Master, are you planning to register as a rogue cultivator or under a clan?”
Ou Yangming answered without any hesitation, “As a rogue cultivator!”
The young lady was surprised, but her good attitude helped her get back to her senses quickly. She smiled and stated, “You only need to imprint your information on the Tianyuan Stone.” She handed a dark green stone to the young fellow.
Ou Yangming activated his mental power and imprinted his information on the Tianyuan Stone right away.
At the spur of the moment, the sound of a black ape was heard coming from afar. It stirred up strong winds, and it sounded like a lone wolf crying under the moon, or an evil ghost weeping in front of its grave.
A middle-rank spirit beast walked over. It was completely black, and it had a ferocious look in its eyes. In particular, the shocking wound on its chest made it look more deterrent and savage, and it carried a tremendous aura. When the beast roared, all its fur stood up like needles. A man was seen standing with his hands behind his back on its shoulder. He had a beautiful outfit and fair skin, but his vulture-like, gloomy eyes ruined his temperament.
The Devil Ape was followed by 6 to 7 people around it, and they were all Intermediate Spiritualists.
All of a sudden, the man furrowed his eyebrows at a rogue cultivator somewhere in front of him.
A black-clothed man next to him cast a flattering smile at him, then he turned around with a ruthless look in his eyes.
“Hmph, aren’t you going to move aside? Can you bear the responsibility of delaying my young master’s time!” The black-clothed man scoffed. Concurrently, he struck the rogue cultivator’s chest with his palm. The cultivator instantly flew backward like a kite without its string. He coughed blood from his heart and chest, and he struggled to get up, but he dared not express his anger.
As for the young man on the black ape, he opened his fan at a timely moment, revealing the drawing of a fairy on it.
“This is Devil Ape from the Li family, and it has extraordinary strength.” A young man cast a covetous look at the ape but seemed to be more afraid. He took a few steps back without any hesitation to stay far away.
“Yes, I once witnessed the Devil Ape punch a Rudimentary Spiritualist into powder,” another person said softly, “That’s Li Tianyu—the only grandson of Venerable One Li Shaoyuan. He’s a tyrant in the city and can’t be offended.”
Everyone in the square was fearful, and they dared not look at the white-clothed young man.
When Li Tianyu spotted Xue Xuanle, an evil look could be seen in his eyes. He waved his hand and announced, “I’m taking this lady!”
He simply ignored Ou Yangming, who was next to Xue Xuanle. This was because he considered Rudimentary Spiritualists as thrash, thus he would not spare the young fellow a look at all.
Xue Xuanle was anxious. She squeezed the corner of her shirt with her right hand.
“Don’t be scared—I’m here!” Ou Yangming spoke calmly, but he gave her a sense of security.
He took a step forward to get in front of Xue Xuanle, then he questioned coldly, “Young Master, this isn’t very appropriate, is it?”
Li Tianyu uttered wickedly without looking at all, “Kill him!”
“You’re going too far in bullying others!” Ou Yangming scoffed. A sound was suddenly heard coming from his interspatial bag as his Illusion Formation Board flickered.
It was then when a scoff was heard coming from the Beyond Heaven Pavilion. It sounded like a sudden clap of thunder in the square. “Hmph, this is the Beyond Heaven Pavilion. If you’d like to fight, get out of here!”
Even Li Tianyu’s pupils shrunk inward when he heard the voice.
He quickly cupped his hands and said, “I’m Li Tianyu from the Li family. Greetings, Pavilion Elder. I’m being negligent this time, but I hope that you won’t blame me.”
Nobody responded after that, but Li Tianyu did not find it strange. He looked deeply at Ou Yangming and noted coldly, “I see that you’ve registered for the Hunting Meet. You better pray that you won’t meet me in the Forest of Death, or I’ll make you more dead than alive!”
Following that, he fanned his fan arrogantly and left while standing on the Devil Ape’s shoulder.
