Immortal Path to Heaven

“An interspatial bag?” Ou Yangming was slightly stunned. When he looked at those items laid out at the stall, he could not help but find it funny.

The vulture was a spirit beast. Judging from its aura, while it was not a middle-rank spirit beast, it was not far from being one. Even so, it did not have an interspatial bag that belonged to itself.

It had been some time since Ou Yangming entered the Spiritual Realm, and he also came across all sorts of figures and spirit beasts.

According to his observation, human cultivators or spirit beasts that arrived at the advanced level would have an interspatial bag at least.

When he previously fought the lizards to their deaths and sneak attacks on the Twelve Walkers to kill them, his rewards must not be underestimated even though the fights were dangerous.

He obtained a total of more than 20 interspatial bags from them.

Needless to say, apart from the high-rank spirit beasts, he also found interspatial bags from the middle-rank and even low-rank spirit beasts.

Nonetheless, interspatial bags were overall rare treasures in Danzhou. It was extremely rare that one could possess one in low-rank as Fat Antelope did.

Struck with a thought, Ou Yangming asked, “How many spirit ores does an interspatial bag cost roughly?”

The vulture’s look changed, and it questioned the young fellow coldly, “Why are you asking?”

Ou Yangming smiled faintly and responded, “It’s just a casual question. Is it a bad time to ask”

The calmer he sounded, the more the vulture was afraid of offending him. After all, he took out 100 spirit ores without batting an eyelid at all!

“If we want to buy an interspatial bag, we’ll normally prepare about 10,000 spirit ores,” the vulture answered after a moment of hesitation.

Ou Yangming chuckled and asked, “Oh, so you’ve collected about 10,000 spirit ores in your sack?”

The vulture was startled, and its eyes were burning with a raging fire, but it was also slightly fearful at the same time. Although this was the Beast King Sect’s territory, 10,000 spirit ores were a lump sum that could not be ignored at all. It understood very well that one should not reveal one’s wealth.

“Hmph, what are you trying to do? Don’t forget that we’re in the Beast King Sect, so you’ll regret it if you attack me here,” the vulture uttered fiercely.

Ou Yangming giggled and shook his head. “You misunderstood me—I’m not thinking about stealing from you at all.”

“Brother Ou.” Tian Yinghao suddenly approached him and said softly, “If you’d like to buy an interspatial bag, you can just buy one from the sect.” He shook his head and added, “Don’t worry, no matter which channel you decide to get it from, it won’t cost 10,000 spirit ores.”

“Oh?” Ou Yangming shifted his gaze between Tian Yinghao and the vulture.

Tian Yinghao struck his chest and assured the young fellow. “Brother Ou, don’t worry. It might not be able to buy an interspatial bag despite having 10,000 spirit ores, but it won’t be a problem for you to acquire one.”

Ou Yangming snickered and expressed, “Brother Tian, you might’ve misunderstood—I’m not a disciple from the Beast King Sect.”

Tian Yinghao laughed and replied to him, “Brother Ou, since you’re able to enter the library as you wish and has unlimited access to the book collections there, it makes no difference whether you’re a disciple from our sect or not.”

He was still clueless about Ou Yangming’s background but after the incident in the library, he was certain that the young fellow’s backing was definitely mighty beyond one’s imagination. If not, given Shui Wenliang’s status and fierce character, he would not have let go of a matter so easily after being outraged about it.

The vulture was envious as it listened to their conversation.

This was the treatment that could be enjoyed by disciples from influential sects, and it was much better than the lives of beings that struggled financially.

Who knew, Ou Yangming still waved his hand and said, “Brother Tian, thanks for your good intention.”

He turned to look at the vulture. “Hey, if you really have 10,000 spirit ores with you, how about I sell an interspatial bag to you?”

“What?”

The vulture and Tian Yinghao exclaimed at the same time. They looked at Ou Yangming in confusion.

Earlier on, Ou Yangming retrieved an interspatial bag and took out spirit ores from it. Nevertheless, having an interspatial bag and being able to sell an interspatial bag to someone else were entirely different things.

Tian Yinghao noted without any hesitation, “Brother Ou, interspatial bags can’t be obtained easily. Even for sect disciples like us, we’re only qualified to buy 1 each after making a significant contribution!”

The vulture cast a sidelong glance at him. If it was not because of the Beast King Sect, it would have ripped him into pieces already. Having said that, as bold as the vulture was, it would not dare to offend a blacksmith from the Beast King Sect here.

“Young master, do you really have an interspatial… Oh, an extra interspatial bag?” The vulture looked eagerly at Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming grinned and casually retrieved another interspatial bag.

This was one of his spoils of war from the lizards. The interspatial bag did not have a large space as it was the smallest among all, but he had emptied it already.

The vulture took the interspatial bag and scanned it with its spiritual power. It instantly looked highly-spirited.

“Young master, no, sir, I have 10,300 over spirit ores here, and they’re all yours now. Please go ahead and count them.” The vulture handed Ou Yangming the big sack without any delay, and it held on to the interspatial bag tightly. Judging from the way it was acting, if someone tried to snatch the bag from it, it would surely risk its life to secure it.

Ou Yangming accepted the sack from the vulture. Without needing to open it at all, he finished counting the spirit ores with his mental conception.

Back in the lower realm, Ou Yangming found out how precious interspatial bags were because even the imperial family would do anything to obtain them.

However, he did not expect that interspatial bags were also incredibly precious in the Spiritual Realm. Of course, there was also a contrast between their values in the 2 realms. In the Spiritual Realm, one would stand a chance to get an interspatial bag if one accumulated enough spirit ores.

On the other hand, even if one was the wealthiest being in the lower realm, it would still be difficult for one to acquire an interspatial bag.

“Sir, can you sell this interspatial bag to me for 11,000 spirit ores?”

Just as Ou Yangming lamented, a voice was suddenly heard coming from the side.

It was a spirit tiger, which was staring at the interspatial bag in the vulture’s claws with a covetous look.

The vulture’s eyes reddened right away, and it was furious. “I bought this first, so what are you trying to do?”

Upon hearing it, the spirit tiger released his momentum; it turned out to be a middle-rank spirit beast. It uttered coldly, “This sir retrieved an interspatial bag, but he didn’t specify that he’ll sell it to you. I’m offering him more spirit ores, so why can’t I bid for it too?”

The vulture was dumbfounded. The tiger’s cultivation base was higher, but it was a bird and could escape if it was not a match for its opponent, thus it did not need to be afraid at all.

That said, without Ou Yangming’s permission, the vulture dared not escape with the interspatial bag. It twitched its wing a little then pleaded with the young fellow, “Sir, you…”

Ou Yangming sighed and thought, ‘These spirit beasts are so spineless; they’re addressing me as a sir just because of a small interspatial bag.’

It was an honorific for superiors where normally, only top-grade Spiritualists or Venerable Ones would be addressed as sirs by ordinary Spiritualists.

Nonetheless, he did not know that the spirit beasts would even willingly address him as a master for the interspatial bag.

Ou Yangming cleared his throat and said, “Brother, I promised it that it can have the interspatial bag for 10,000 spirit ores.”

The vulture was elated after hearing what he said. It quickly expressed its gratitude, “Thank you, sir, thank you, sir.”

As for the spirit tiger, it was disappointed, but it was even more indignant. Even so, it dared not go into a rage in this special place.

Following that, Ou Yangming turned around and asked Tian Yinghao softly, “Brother Tian, are 10,000 spirit ores not enough to buy an interspatial bag?”

Tian Yinghao pondered for a brief moment before he answered, “It’ll depend on their fate and luck. 10,000 spirit ores are sometimes enough, but it’s also possible that they won’t be able to get one even if they offer twice the number of ores.”

Ou Yangming was bewildered, and he was sure that there must be a reason behind it. Nevertheless, it was not the right time or place to ask about it.

“Brother Tian, are you free now? I’d like to buy you a drink—what do you think?” He invited Tian Yinghao with a smile.

Tian Yinghao was delighted, and he responded at once, “Brother Ou, since you’re a guest, I should be treating you instead.”

After seeing what Ou Yangming did in the library, Tian Yinghao dared not let him buy him a drink.

Being a disciple from the Beast King Sect, which was the local tyrant here, Tian Yinghao brought Ou Yangming to a rest stop in the ravine.

The rest stop was a villa-like restaurant. When Tian Yinghao arrived in his outfit that had a flame mark on it, he was welcomed with warm hospitality and was brought to the quietest room.

As soon as Ou Yangming sat, he cut to the chase. “Brother Tian, what’s the matter with the trades for interspatial bags?”

Tian Yinghao was well-prepared, so he answered, “Brother Ou, you’re a blacksmith too, so you should know how difficult it is to smith interspatial bags, am I right? Heh, without being gifted enough in the interspatial aspect, one can’t refine them at all.”

Ou Yangming hesitated for a while, then he nodded slowly but was not very bothered. He had successfully smithed interspatial bags in the lower realm, where there were only crude conditions. Since the law of the universe was much less strict in the Spiritual Realm, it would be easier for him to refine them.

Therefore, he did not think that it was a difficult task at all.

Of course, he was also aware that Tian Yinghao would have a ghastly look on his face if he said that.

“Interspatial bags can’t be produced by normal sects at all. The Beast King Sect will refine a batch of them every year, but the demand is more than the supply, such that not even all of our disciples can get their hands on them.”

Ou Yangming was moved. “Since you don’t have enough, why do you still sell them to spirit beasts?”

Tian Yinghao smiled bitterly. “It’s Sir Venerable One’s order, so we’re only doing as we’re told.”
