Chapter 341 Borrowing The Treasure Land

There were many hidden talents in the capital, so Ou Yangming did not want to simply venture into places, but he was eager to find a quiet place to execute his thoughts once his study showed prospective results.

If Ou Yangming did not have an ambiguous interaction with Bai Shixue earlier, he would have returned to the Yi Pavilion’s courtyard, but he was now afraid of seeing that little witch, who would give him fanciful thoughts. Therefore, he dashed toward the Woo residence after some thought.

Ou Yangming was extremely fast, so he arrived in a flash outside the Woo residence.

Six Yin Grade powerhouses, who were guarding the residence, recognized him as soon as he showed up. While they earnestly welcomed him, they quickly notified the Woo family’s two great ancestors. Everyone in the Woo residence was shocked when Ou Yangming visited yesterday. In particular, the ones who were guarding the entrance were repeatedly reminded to be more alert. Thus, they were so passionate when they saw him that they almost addressed him as their grandfather.

In actual fact, if they were fortunate enough to be noticed by Ou Yangming and were guided by him, they would be successful in life and would have an entirely different path in life.

Before long, Woo Lejia, who received the news, ran out in a hurry. He laughed and said, “Brother Ou, I’m already reaching out to them, and I’ll soon complete the task that you entrusted to me.”

“Brother Woo, just do your best.” Ou Yangming was stunned, but he replied with a smile and continued after a pause, “I’ve come for something else today..”

“If you need me to do anything, you can just send someone here to let me know. Why did you take the trouble to come here yourself?” Woo Lejia waved his hand and asked. He was later shocked when he glanced outside. “Did you not come in the Yi Pavilion’s carriage?”

Ou Yangming was taken aback, but he immediately answered, “A carriage will be too slow, and it’s less convenient.”

Woo Lejia’s eyes lit up, and he lowered his voice to ask, “Brother Ou, if you don’t like the Yi Pavilion, how about you stay here for a few days?”

“I’ve gotten used to staying there, and I don’t want to cause any trouble.” Ou Yangming waved his hand and laughed. Honestly, he was rather hesitant because he was afraid of seeing Bai Shixue again after what happened. Nonetheless, deep down the young fellow was looking forward to meeting her, which he could not understand as well. It seemed like he was reluctant to leave just like that, hence he rejected Woo Lejia’s offer after some thought.

‘How unfortunate,’ Woo Lejia thought. If he managed to invite Ou Yangming to their residence, his relationship with him would definitely improve.

Ou Yangming’s eyes glowed, and he blurted, “Brother Woo, I’d like to use your residence’s smithing workshop.”

“Okay, you may use it however long you want but…” Woo Lejia’s eyes glimmered, then he rubbed his hands and expressed embarrassedly, “It’ll be great if you allow our clan’s blacksmiths to assist you.” The young fellow was startled, and he could not help but laugh. “Brother Woo, I’m about to smith something unique, and I’m afraid other people won’t notice the trick behind it.”

Woo Lejia was not enraged even when his bubble was burst. He said with a smile, “It’s okay, as long as they have an opportunity to observe closely.”

He was also having wishful thinking. Whether or not the blacksmiths could learn anything from Ou Yangming, as long as they could stay by his side and serve him well, would the young fellow treat them shabbily?

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “That sounds good. Go and prepare the smithing workshop; I can’t wait to start.”

Woo Lejia instantly ordered his juniors to make the arrangements, but he was feeling rather confused. ‘What exactly is he planning to smith? Why is he so eager?’ Nevertheless, he was not going to pester Ou Yangming about it and would not dare to ask to avoid arousing suspicion.

Given that Woo Lejia had become the clan’s Supreme Great Ancestor, there was a drastic change in his status. As soon as he gave the order, the most luxurious smithing workshop in the residence was emptied and tidied.

Ou Yangming nodded and praised when he entered the smithing workshop.

The irrelevant people left after he waved his hand, leaving him, Woo Lejia, and two middle-aged men in the workshop.

Although the two middle-aged men were knowledgeable, they were quite reserved in front of Ou Yangming. Ou Yangming asked with a smile, “Brother Woo, they’re…”

Woo Lejia answered right away, “They’re Woo Leshui and Woo Leming, the most outstanding blacksmiths in our clan, and they’re also verified Advanced Blacksmiths.”

An Advanced Blacksmith was considered a top-notch genius. Even though one could not be compared with a Superior Blacksmith, how many Superior Blacksmiths were there in the entire empire anyway?

Despite that, facing Ou Yangming, who could refine interspatial bags and smith magic tools, a Superior Blacksmith would have to kneel, let alone an Advanced Blacksmith.

“Ah, you’re both Master Woo.” Ou Yangming chuckled.

Woo Leshui and Woo Leming bowed solemnly and uttered with respect, “Master Ou, we dare not call ourselves a master in front of you.”

They had been in the trade for years, so they were extremely sensible. After knowing that Ou Yangming could smith magic tools, and after seeing the nine-ringed saber, how could they still be arrogant?

As long as Ou Yangming allowed them to observe in the smithing workshop, they were grateful.

Ou Yangming nodded and skipped the formalities with them. He later noted, “I’m going to start smithing a piece of equipment, so leave if you have nothing to do with this.”

The others were dumbfounded. Woo Lejia widened his eyes and pointed at his nose. “Are you talking about me?” “What do you think?” Ou Yangming asked plainly.

Woo Lejia smiled embarrassedly and left the workshop in a gloomy mood.

On the other hand, Woo Leshui and Woo Leming were stupefied as they looked at Ou Yangming. They truly admired the young fellow, who was even younger than both of their sons.

Woo Lejia was a Supreme Great Ancestor, after all. He might have just advanced not long ago, but that did not change his status at the moment.

Anyone would subconsciously be respectful toward a Supreme Great Ancestor because an individual like that was equivalent to a fortress, which could decide one’s life or death in a flash of thought. Hence, one would normally be fearful of a powerhouse of such a level.

However, the two blacksmiths found it unbelievable how Ou Yangming treated Woo Lejia.

They roughly knew the reason behind it, but they still found it hard to believe.

Ou Yangming turned to glance at them and stated, “I’m about to start, but how much you’re able to comprehend is solely up to you.”

The two blacksmiths from the Woo family curbed their thoughts and bowed at Ou Yangming to express their gratitude. They knew it was a golden opportunity, and they would regret forever if they missed it.

Following that, Ou Yangming retrieved his interspatial bag and glanced at the materials inside with his mental conception. While the materials could not be compared with the peculiar stone, there were various types of them with dissimilar attributes, so many combinations could be made.

He initially planned to smith 25 small gifts for the other newly-advanced Supreme Great Ancestor, but he could not be bothered for the time being

That said, it was not easy to smith pieces of equipment that could accommodate purple lights rings’ powers.

Most importantly, Ou Yangming never read information about this before, so he was doing everything from scratch. He did not know which material could store such a power and which materials could be matched together.

He would have to slowly explore everything. Ou Yangming hesitated for a while before he retrieved an ore. His eyes looked fierce and serious at once, and as his body swayed, he naturally entered the integration of Heaven and man.

Consequently, the two blacksmiths from the Woo family immediately sensed the unusual change in the void.

They stared at Ou Yangming to observe his every move and quietly fathomed the mysterious yet unique power released by the young fellow.

In any case, they were Advanced Blacksmiths from an aristocratic family, where they were guided by experts and had a great inheritance. As such, they could tell how wonderful of a state Ou Yangming was in.

It was a legendary state, which was beyond the imaginations of people at their level.

The integration of Heaven and man could not be grasped by anyone—not even the renowned Superior Blacksmiths.

At this moment, the two blacksmiths from the Woo family gave up their thoughts and fully focused on observing Ou Yangming’s smithing process.

Ou Yangming could easily kill the men if he had evil intent, but they would also benefit greatly, by which they could understand the integration of Heaven and man better.

Though they did not wish to apprehend the state, they could gain huge benefits by getting closer to it.

Ou Yangming did not pay attention to their reactions at all. It would be nice if the men could learn something from his smithing process, but if they failed to learn anything, it would only be due to their inadequacy, and he was not going to do anything on purpose to help them.

The moment Ou Yangming retrieved the material and began to melt it, he was already undistracted.

The ore softened in a split second due to the Military Fire, and it slowly took the shape of an arm guard.

Since Ou Yangming wanted something to complement the Spiritual Fist, gauntlets would be the most suitable weapon.

Nonetheless, while the refining method of gauntlets was related to that of cloaks and boots, he knew nothing about it. Thus, he could only settle for the next best thing, which were arm guards. Soon enough, a brand new arm guard was born in Ou Yangming’s hands.

Next, the purple light ring that surrounded the nine-ringed saber in his mind started to release an intense light. The light slowly entered the arm guard through Ou Yangming’s mental conception. Subsequently, the mark of a nine-ringed saber faintly surfaced on the arm guard, and the young fellow could sense the surging energy inside.

Ou Yangming was overjoyed because he did not expect to succeed during his first attempt.

Just as the young fellow was feeling elated, the mark somehow shook and crumbled without warning

Almost at the same time, the arm guard turned into dust and fell from his hands.
