Chapter 1148 - Dragon Fragrant Herb

Chapter 1148: Dragon Fragrant Herb

From afar, Ou Yangming saw the dragon emperor in the courtyard. He quickly walked over.

“Emperor,” Ou Yangming greeted politely.

The dragon emperor was the most powerful expert Ou Yangming had seen in the Dragons. His strength was unfathomable, and he was probably at the third step. This was just the young fellow’s guess. After all, he did not sense the emperor’s terrifying aura from the Golden Crows’ king.

Since the dragon emperor’s aura was even stronger than that of the Golden Crows’ king, Ou Yangming guessed that the emperor had surpassed the second step.

The dragon emperor also quickly stood up. With a kind smile on his face, he said, “Lil’ Friend Ou, you’re finally back. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. How was the result of this duel?”

“I was lucky and won slightly.” Ou Yangming was modest.

“Haha!”

The dragon emperor laughed. In fact, he already knew the result, but he did not say it out loud. When Long Hai admitted defeat, someone had sent him a voice transmission to tell him the situation of the battle.

In actuality, the dragon emperor did not expect that Ou Yangming could defeat Long Hai. Especially when the young fellow did not use the Taoist Tool. If it were not for that, he would not have reminded Long Hai unnecessarily yesterday.

The dragon emperor said with a smile, “Lil’ Friend Ou, you’re indeed worthy of being valued by the Great Compassion Divine Dragon. I have to admire your potential. Not only are your smithing techniques superb, but your strength is also shocking.”

“Senior, don’t praise me. My strength is nothing in front of you.” Ou Yangming smiled bitterly. His strength was outstanding among the younger generation, but he was still incomparable to the dragon emperor and the Nine-sworded Ruler.

Even with the Acquired Taoist Tool, Ou Yangming understood that there was still a huge gap between him and the Rulers at the third step.

The dragon emperor smiled and did not refute. He remarked, “Lil’ Friend Ou, your talent is amazing. You’ll reach my boundary sooner or later.”

“Emperor, is there something you want from me?” Ou Yangming did not think that the dragon emperor came here to brag about himself.

“Sorry to have disturbed you, Lil’ Friend Ou. I did come here to ask for a favor.” The dragon emperor’s expression became serious.

Ou Yangming had guessed it, but he did not know why the dragon emperor came. He asked, “Emperor, please tell me. If I can do it, I’ll surely do my best to help.”

Hearing Ou Yangming’s words, the dragon emperor’s face was filled with joy. Only then did he reveal his purpose.

The Dragons originally had a treasure called the Divine Dragon Mirror. The mirror was very precious and could monitor the entire 10,000 Dragons Valley and even the stars nearby.

With the Divine Dragon Mirror, the Dragons could effortlessly control the movements everywhere, making it impossible for outsiders to enter the Dragons’ base.

The Divine Dragon Mirror was also an Acquired Taoist Tool. It was originally fine but unfortunately, an accident happened when it was passed on to the previous dragon emperor as it was destroyed by a mysterious powerful. From then on, it became useless.

It was worth noting that the Dragons had a high status in the Great Wide World, and their valley was also powerful. In the past, the mirror did not matter at all. After all, no one had the courage to provoke the Dragons. Nevertheless, things were different at the moment. The world was undergoing a drastic change, and a great calamity was coming. No one knew what would happen. With the Divine Dragon Mirror, they could at least be more prepared.

Ou Yangming listened to the dragon emperor quietly and asked in a deep voice, “Senior, are you asking me to repair the Divine Dragon Mirror?”

“Lil’ Friend Ou, you’re right. This is why I came.” The dragon emperor’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

Since Ou Yangming could forge an Acquired Taoist Tool, the damaged Taoist Tool might be able to be repaired by him.

The dragon emperor continued, “The Divine Dragon Mirror has a special meaning to the Dragons. It’s not only an Acquired Taoist Tool but also a legacy treasure that has existed for tens of thousands of years. If you could help me repair the mirror, I’m willing to open the Dragons’ treasury and allow you to choose an item as a reward.”

Open the Dragons’ treasury!

Ou Yangming was also surprised. The Dragons occupied a third of the Great Wide World’s territory. One could imagine how many good things there were in their treasury.

There would be the accumulation of the Dragons over countless years. It would be all-encompassing.

Ou Yangming suddenly thought of the 2 divine medicines needed for the Nine Revolutions Golden Pills, which were the Seven-colored Heavenly Fragrant Flower and the Mystic Ice Jade Fruit. The Crimson Emperor had searched countless places but still could not find them. They might exist in the Dragons’ treasury.

Thinking of this, Ou Yangming was somewhat moved. He responded in a deep voice, “Senior, it was also my first time smithing an Acquired Taoist Tool, so I can’t guarantee that I can repair the Divine Dragon Mirror.”

The dragon emperor replied anxiously, “Of course, I understand. It won’t be easy to fix the Divine Dragon Mirror but as long as there’s a 1% chance, we have to try.”

“In that case, I can give it a try.” Ou Yangming nodded.

“Well, young friend, the duel has just ended so take a rest for a day. I’ll personally send the Divine Dragon Mirror to you tomorrow.”

Seeing that Ou Yangming had agreed, the dragon emperor did not disturb him. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he got up and left.

Long Shao had been waiting outside the door for a while. Seeing that the dragon emperor had left, he walked in.

“Master Ou, I’ve brought you something good.”

Long Shao walked over and took out a few withered spiritual herbs from his interspatial bag.

Ou Yangming was stunned for a moment. When he saw the items in Great Elder Long Shao’s hands, he asked, “Senior, why did you bring me these?”

These spiritual herbs looked ordinary but judging from Long Shao’s careful movements, they must not be ordinary items.

Despite that, Ou Yangming did not know much about spiritual herbs, so he could not help but wonder what these were.

There was a big difference between blacksmiths and alchemists. Ou Yangming had successfully refined pills a few times, but he could not be considered an alchemist in nature because he did not even know the basic knowledge of alchemists.

“These are Grade 7 spiritual herbs, Dragon Fragrant Herbs. They could help one comprehend the path and spirit. I obtained them mainly because of you, Master Ou,” Long Shao said straightforwardly.

“Because of me?” Ou Yangming was a little puzzled.

Long Shao told him about the bet between him and Long Mo. Naturally, he had won the bet and got 10 Dragon Fragrant Herbs from Long Mo. He decided to send 5 of them to Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming finally understood what was going on. He laughed and refused, “You won them from the bet. It has nothing to do with me so you should take them back.”

“How could it have nothing to do with you? If it wasn’t for your amazing strength, Master Ou, I wouldn’t have had the chance to get these good things. It’s only right that I give you half.” Long Shao insisted on keeping only half of the herbs, so Ou Yangming had no choice but to accept them. He knew that this was Long Shao’s goodwill toward him, so he could not be too firm.

After Long Shao left, Ou Yangming picked up a few small herbs and began to observe them.

These few stalks of spiritual herbs could help one comprehend the path. Before Long Shao left, he had told him how to use them.

Ou Yangming took out a stalk of the Dragon Fragrant Herb, soaked it in water, and drank it in one gulp.

Grade 7 spiritual herbs were very precious. Ou Yangming had also seen some spiritual herbs on the Hidden Dragons Island, but very few were above Grade 5.

After drinking the herb, Ou Yangming did not notice any changes.

“Nothing’s different?”

Just as Ou Yangming was about to give up…

An image of the starry sky appeared in his mind. In the starry sky, a giant with a long spear in his hand descended from the sky. Countless stars fell, and the world dimmed.

Bits of starlight appeared in Ou Yangming’s mind.

‘Who was that person just now?’

It seemed to be very similar to Xing Tian, but Ou Yangming knew that it was not. Xing Tian did not have a head, but the person in his mind just now had one.

Having said that, no matter how hard Ou Yangming tried, he could not see the person’s appearance clearly. The person’s body seemed to be shrouded in fog, making it impossible for him to distinguish his appearance.

Starlights drifted in his mind, and Ou Yangming’s expression became serious. He felt as if he was also in the starry sky.

A meteor streaked past him at a fast speed. In the blink of an eye and went thousands of kilometers away. At the spur of the moment, a cold shout came from the distant horizon.

“Still!”

In an instant, the fleeting meteor stopped. Ou Yangming was shocked beyond words. The voice from the horizon stopped the operation of the universe, turning the world into an eternal world.

The still world only lasted for an instant, and the universe once again returned to its original state. A huge black hole formed beneath Ou Yangming, and the strong pulling force made him feel like his body was torn apart.

After a moment, Ou Yangming could no longer support himself. His body was swallowed by the black hole.

“It hurts…” Ou Yangming gritted his teeth, and his body trembled. A ray of sunset entered the room from outside the window and shone on his face.

Only then did Ou Yangming open his eyes. His head was covered in sweat, and he felt as if his body had collapsed.

“I’m Fine?”After Ou Yangming woke up, he hurriedly looked at his body and found that he was unharmed. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief. The scene just now was too real, making him mistakenly think that he was dead.

‘Luckily, I was only in a dream. Was that the effect of the Dragon Fragrant Herb just now?’ Ou Yangming blamed himself. If he did not know the effect of a spiritual herb the next time, he would not act so rashly.

After taking a breath, Ou Yangming got up and walked out of the window. The air outside was very fresh, which made him feel much more relaxed. It was too depressing just now. He did not even dare to recall the heart-wrenching pain.

A breeze blew, and a few white petals floated over from afar. The petals were like fairies under the setting sun, swaying in the air then falling gracefully.

Ou Yangming was moved. He suddenly called out.

“Still…”
