Chapter 510 - Immortal Liquid (1/2)

A spiritual item, and a mascot.

Ou Yangming instantly recalled the sleeping spirit turtle inside his Long Feather Band, and he could not help but have a strange look on his face.

Big Yellow stole the Tree of Splendour, and the Aquatics’ spirit beast that invaded the lower realm this time was a mascot. Most importantly, Ou Yangming was now in possession of the plant, and the spirit turtle was being kept in his Long Feather Band. ‘Isn’t everything too coincidental?’

The young fellow shook his head and cast aside the thought.

Based on his ident.i.ty and abilities, perhaps he was considered almighty in this realm. Nonetheless, he knew after experiencing a Venerable One’s aura that he could not contend with such a figure from the upper realm even if he used all of his trump cards.

If that was the case, Ou Yangming did not believe that an Almighty Being from the upper realm was scheming something against him.

‘Maybe all of this is really just a coincidence.’

He curbed his thought and asked, “Lil’ Red, what should we do?”

“Since you have a spirit turtle, you can just put it on the turtle’s back.” The little red bird blinked and added, “Let it absorb the spirit turtle’s auspicious aura, and it should release immortal liquid. The liquid has endless magical effects, and I’m looking forward to it…”

“Woof…” Big Yellow barked as it was displeased.

The big yellow dog was the one that stole… No, acquired the treasure. Therefore, it was discontent about giving it away.

“Stop having wishful thinking. If we let you swallow the Tree of Splendour into your stomach again, it’ll surely be wasted. Hmph, I can’t waste such a treasure!”

Big Yellow blinked. It knew it could not offend the little red bird, hence it could only look at Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming could not stand it when he looked at the pitiful dog.

The little bird immediately shouted, “I know what you’re thinking. Hmph, as long as the Tree of Splendour releases immortal liquid, you’ll definitely get one drop of it.”

Big Yellow’s eyes lit up right away. It jumped with excitement and circled Ou Yangming while it softly urged the young fellow to begin the process.

Ou Yangming glared at the fellow snappily and shook his head. As he shook his wrist, a peculiar light flashed on his Long Feather Band, and it enveloped the Tree of Splendour at once. Next, the plant turned into a light and entered the world inside the band.

The world was opened up by the little red bird through its gifted ability. In actuality, the bird was not capable enough to create such a vast world yet, but natural gifts were sometimes unreasonable. Other than being envious, ordinary people could neither understand nor learn it.

In the end, the band was in Ou Yangming’s possession, and he had control over it due to the little red bird’s motion.

Under the command of Ou Yangming’s great mental power, the Tree of Splendour did not land anywhere after entering the band but floated in mid-air.

Inside the unique s.p.a.ce, the lazy spirit turtle was sound asleep in the seawater, which it was almost fully submerged in. Ou Yangming had intentionally controlled the water such that it did not totally cover the turtle but provided enough sleeping s.p.a.ce for it.

At this moment, Ou Yangming fully focused on the spirit turtle’s ma.s.sive back.

The seawater had covered nearly half of the turtle’s back, but the other half that was exposed was more than enough.

With a flash of thought, the floating Tree of Splendour descended bit by bit and eventually landed on the turtle’s back. There were many gaps on the turtle’s back, thus the inverted pyramid easily found a spot to be rooted in.

The instant the Tree of Splendour landed on the turtle’s sh.e.l.l, Ou Yangming sensed surging energy in the air, and it was incredibly odd. The power was not forceful, but it could move a person or give one palpitation.

Ou Yangming blinked several times and thought about the words “tacit understanding” and “fitting”.

It seemed like the Tree of Splendour and the spirit turtle were made for each other. Their auras coincided with each other so well that they did not give off a feeling of distinction when they were connected. If it had to be described, it was similar to the relations.h.i.+p between the Military Fire and the little red bird inside Ou Yangming’s body.

“Hey, what’s all this about?” The little red bird blinked and found it strange. It found out from its bloodline inheritance that the Tree of Splendour should be matched with a mascot, but it was surprised that the two would be such a great fit for each other.

Ou Yangming pondered and asked the little bird in return with a smile, “Since they’re able to become like this, what are you not satisfied with?”

‘I’m only finding it strange because it’s too satisfying,’ the little red bird tilted its head and thought, but it would not expose its shame in front of Ou Yangming.

“Hmph, of course I’m satisfied, but I’m more eager to see it release the immortal liquid.” The little red bird flapped its wings and flew from Ou Yangming’s shoulder to his other shoulder. “It tastes very good, and I can’t wait!”
