Chapter 454 - Scale Rune (2/2)

By listening attentively once, Ou Yangming carved the run in his sea of consciousness.

Of course, Ou Yangming was aware that this had something to do with his mysterious Military Fire. It seemed like the fire could easily understand anything related to the Birds and could solve everything quickly. The goshawk glared at the big yellow until the dog lowered its head as it was ashamed. It was then when the giant bird expressed, “Master, I was wrong.”

“What?” Ou Yangming suddenly awoke and asked.

“This little fella’s too dumb, so it can’t learn the Birds’ lost study.” The goshawk then suggested after some thought, “Perhaps we should ask King Kong if the Beasts have a corresponding Concealment Art too. I’m sure it’ll be useful.”

Big Yellow shouted as it was not willing to admit defeat, “I’m not an idiot. The Birds’ spell is too hard to p.r.o.nounce; I’ll surely pick it up right away if the Beasts have a corresponding spell.”

The goshawk cast a disdainful look at it because it did not believe it. However, deep down the spirit bird agreed with the big yellow dog.

After all, there was a huge disparity between the Beasts and the Birds.

That said, Ou Yangming totally ignored them. He closed his eyes and studied the new rune.

The Scale Rune was very dissimilar from the runes that he had seen before this but since he was a blacksmith, he could understand them all if he comprehended one thoroughly. As long as the young fellow could perceive the Scale Rune’s theory, he could carve it on a piece of equipment and could stimulate it using essential Qi or other powers.

Eventually, the scales in the rune seemed to have come alive. They danced within his mind, displaying the most elegant dances as if the scales had become the best dancers. It was both eye-catching and captivating.

Ou Yangming was overwhelmed with joy when he began to familiarize himself with the dances.

The Scale Rune was different from the Humans’ runes, but their theories were similar in some ways. It was difficult for the Humans to understand the Scale Rune and to convert it for their own, but it could definitely be carved on pieces of equipment if it was slightly modified

Ou Yangming opened his eyes after a long time. He exhaled deeply and beamed.

He had fully fathomed the Scale Rune that belonged to the Birds.

The young fellow sensed something strange in the air when he opened his eyes. When he turned to look, he noticed that Big Yellow and the goshawk were staring at him worriedly.

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. “Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

He later scanned Big Yellow’s body and did some calculations in his head before he retrieved a piece of featured steel.

This time, he was only smithing a piece of equipment for Big Yellow to conceal its aura, so it would be too wasteful to smith a magic tool using a peculiar stone.

As the Military Fire burned, a protective armor for its hind leg was slowly formed. Ou Yangming moved his mouth without making a sound, but unusual runes surfaced on the equipment. The runes shone in odd lights, which seeped into the armor bit by bit.

The Scale Rune was embedded on the protective armor just like that. Ou Yangming chuckled and approached the big yellow dog with the armor. He removed the Thunderbolt-resistant Equipment from its body.

After seeing this, the goshawk and the big yellow dog knew what he was going to do, but they reacted differently.

The goshawk looked enviously at Ou Yangming and seemed to have lowered its proud head a bit at this moment.

‘Master is a master indeed; he grasped the secret spell after only hearing it twice.’ The goshawk lamented as well. Even if Ou Yangming was not its master and was truly a part of the Humans, it would gladly follow him too.

Ou Yangming put the new equipment on Big Yellow’s hind leg and smiled. “Try it.”

The big yellow dog unleashed its essential Qi without any hesitation. Next, a flash of a l.u.s.ter appeared on the equipment, but it vanished in the blink of an eye. What shocked them was the yellow dog’s aura and momentum underwent a drastic change in a split second.

After withstanding the Heavenly Thunderbolts, the big yellow dog’s aura and momentum kept growing. It had tried to control them as much as it could, but they could not be fully contained.

It was similar to when one awoke to find that one’s power had doubled and would accidentally cause destruction to one’s environment.

Even if one was incredibly cautious, one could not hide it completely.

The situation was different now. Once Big Yellow channeled its essential Qi into the equipment, his aura and momentum were lowered.

It was the Concealment Art-the perfect representation of the Concealment Art.

Big Yellow looked at Ou Yangming cheerfully and lifted its head as it uttered, “You, safe. I… Protect!” Having become a spirit beast, the big yellow dog finally had the confidence to say this!
