Chapter 357 - 100 Great Ancestors (2/2)

His eyes lit up when he scanned the high platform.

Subsequently, he retrieved several gems from his interspatial bag. He figured that the peculiar half-metal materials could perhaps realize his idea.

Ou Yangming enveloped the gems with his Military Fire.

Below the high platform, the crowd found it strange as they watched him. They could not understand why he used the time to smith a piece of equipment instead of resting. Could he still be displeased with the works of the Advanced Blacksmiths after such a long time?

Before long, Ou Yangming curbed his Military Fire, which had left incredibly mysterious veined patterns on the gems. The young fellow looked satisfied, and he flicked the gems to a few corners on the high platform.

He did not try to hide his actions, hence everyone saw him clearly.

Despite that, when the people stared at the gems, they felt that the veined patterns looked complicated as if they contained unexplainable mysteries. They started to feel dizzy the more they focused on the patterns.

“Thus…”

A Yin Grade martial artist suddenly trembled and fell to the ground.

Woo Lejia’s face changed, and he reprimanded, “Look away! Don’t look if you shouldn’t be looking!” He did not speak loudly, but the other people heard him well, so they instantly looked away. Even if they occasionally stole glances at the gems, they dared not stare at them without restraint.

In any case, from their perspectives, Ou Yangming seemed to have become taller and more mysterious.

After 15 minutes, the powerhouses at the peak of Yang Grade successfully became a Supreme Great Ancestor too.

When the third powerhouse at the peak of Yang Grade went up to the high platform, Ou Yangming smiled all of a sudden. For some reason, the powerhouses felt chills and shuddered.

By gently waving his hand, Ou Yangming released the Simulated Fist’s might again. This time, the gems on the high platform glowed as though they were guided by a certain power. Consequently, their lights filled the platform, causing the view on it to be blurry and hazy.

Woo Lejia and the other people looked at each other. The carving of runes in gems was considered a small pioneering work.

After all, gems were not tough materials like featured steel, thus it was definitely beyond an ordinary blacksmith’s capability to carve runes on them without damaging them. Having said that, Ou Yangming had not only accomplished it, but he also took a further step by releasing the gems’ powers through this method.

The powerhouses could tell that Ou Yangming was borrowing the gems’ powers to reduce his consumption.

Gems were precious, but they were simply luxurious consumables for people of their level. What the powerhouses noticed was actually Ou Yangming’s ability to display a greater strength, and the balance in their hearts tilted a little as a result. The young fellow was like a bottomless pool. Each time one thought one saw the bottom of the pool, he would push aside to aquatics to show a deeper black.

Half an hour pa.s.sed in a flash. This time, the powerhouse at the peak of Yang Grade collapsed to the ground after only half an hour. One of the Supreme Great Ancestors had a ghastly look on his face because the powerhouse was from his clan. According to past examples, the longer one persisted, the higher one’s chance to breakthrough. If one was done after just half an hour, one had basically lost the chance to enter Extreme Grade.

That said, just as the Supreme Great Ancestor was about to drive out the embarra.s.sing powerhouse, the powerhouse bowed at Ou Yangming and was going to sit on the ground to breakthrough.

“Wait,” Ou Yangming said out of the blue, “Don’t waste time; go down there to breakthrough instead.”

The powerhouse was stunned, but he nodded and leaped toward his brother. He was not bothered even when the crowd cast complicated looks at him, by which he sat with his legs crossed and began to advance to the Extreme Grade.

On the high platform, Ou Yangming continued to pull the fourth powerhouse at the peak of Yang Grade into the simulated scene without taking a break.

Below the high platform, most people paid attention to the powerhouse who was cultivating in isolation. He released a formidable aura too after some time, and the Supreme Great Ancestor beside him was surprised and overjoyed.

At that moment, the crowd came round and looked at the high platform.

The gems were still s.h.i.+ning at the corners of the platform, but the hazy lights prevented everyone else from getting a clear view of what was going on.

They faintly understood that perhaps this was the new change that was grasped by Ou Yangming.

Three days—Ou Yangming replaced the gems several times throughout the three days and employed the secret technique to recover his energy, but he successfully let nearly 80 powerhouses at the peak of Yang Grade enter his simulated world.

At the end of the third day, there were 100 Supreme Great Ancestors in the square.
