Chapter 1080: Flying Knives and Feather Arrows

Big Yellow and Lil’ Red cheered and impatiently took their respective armor.

Ou Yangming and his companions had different builds, hence it was obvious who the armors were refined for. There was no need to fuss about it.

Of course, when Ou Yangming was refining the armors, he did not hesitate to add the most precious treasures into them. Not only were the Thunderbolt-resistant Suits not weakened but even their defensive powers could be compared to that of the Ancient Dragon Shield.

That day when Long Xiao self-exploded, it shocked Ou Yangming so much that it made him pay more attention to defense.

Only after experiencing it did he know how terrifying it was. If he encountered a similar situation again, he did not want to use his body to withstand the consequences.

Therefore, when he was refining these 3 Life-saving Armors, he went all out and used all the skills and materials that he could use. These 3 armors were where his success in smithing at the moment lay.

The 3 armors were known as the Life-saving Armors. Their name was not premium enough, but it was simple and clear. Moreover, they were the real deal.

When Big Yellow and Lil’ Red put on the armors and used their abilities to activate the armors’ defenses, their faces revealed a look of disbelief. It was obvious that the quality of the items that Ou Yangming had refined this time had far exceeded their imaginations.

Looking at the smiling Ou Yangming, Lil’ Red suddenly became solemn. He asked, “Lil’ Ming, why did you refine these?”

Ou Yangming explained without hesitation, “Lil’ Red, Senior Feng Mu asked you to come because he wants you to bring us into the heart of origins, right? Heh, I have a feeling that there’ll be big trouble there.” His eyes flashed, and he continued, “Since there’s going to be trouble, we must make early preparations.”

Lil’ Red looked at him deeply and finally nodded.

Big Yellow looked at them in confusion and realized that the atmosphere around them seemed to be a little tense. He opened his mouth and shouted, “Lil’ Ming, the flying knives are mine, right?”

“That’s right. I refined them according to your characteristics. They’re a set of Flying Knives Formation Maps. The overall formation map is composed of 126 flying knives as nodes. Every 9 flying knives is a small formation map. When the 14 small formation maps are combined into one, they’ll form a Big Flying Knives Formation. There are endless mysteries within.” Ou Yangming smiled. “The mysteries are related to the cultivation and skills of the Dragons. You can slowly explore them, and I hope that this formation will allow you to reach a higher level.”

Big Yellow nodded excitedly and expressed, “Lil’ Ming, don’t worry, I won’t let you down.” His eyes sparkled. As he wore his armor and held a flying knife in his mouth, he looked very eager.

Nonetheless, after scanning Ou Yangming and Lil’ Red a few times, he withdrew his gaze embarrassedly.

He did not have the courage to provoke the 2 figures in front of him.

Even though he had obtained the inheritance of the Dragons’ relic and even his bloodline had undergone a fundamental change, it was still impossible for him to challenge Lil’ Red at this moment.

Lil’ Red turned a blind eye to Big Yellow’s gaze. Instead, he stared at the blood-red arrows and asked, “Lil’ Ming, what are these?”

Ou Yangming’s expression immediately became grave as he answered, “Lil’ Red, these are life-saving items that I refined for you.”

“Life-saving items?”

“That’s right. These arrows are called Explosive Arrows. Once released, they can automatically lock on to the enemy’s aura and self-explode within a certain range.”

These arrows were also called Explosive Arrows, but their power was worlds apart from the ones that Ou Yangming had refined in the past.

Lil’ Red blinked and said, “Oh, I understand. These are consumables that can only be used once.” There was a faint disappointment in his eyes. Why was Big Yellow able to obtain a set of Flying Knives Formations that could be used repeatedly while he only received some consumables?

Ou Yangming chuckled and asked, “Lil’ Red, have you ever seen a Ruler self-explode?”

Lil’ Red was startled, and he shook his head. “No.”

He was a member of the Phoenixes, but he had not yet reached the peak so how could he have seen such a scene? In other words, if he saw something like that, he might not have survived.

Ou Yangming sighed and said, “I’ve seen it before. Long Xiao self-exploded in front of me.”

He gently brushed the red arrows and continued, “Inside these arrows, I added the most precious items among the relics from the Dragons and the Phoenixes. Once they self-explode, they’ll release energy that’s not inferior to that of a Ruler’s self-explosion.”

Big Yellow and Lil’ Red gasped, their faces full of shock.

“These... If I use these, won’t I be dead for sure?” Lil’ Red screamed.

Ou Yangming shook his head and said, “I told you—these are directional explosive items. As long as you control them with your mind and wear your Thunderbolt-resistant Suit beforehand, stay in the opposite direction of the explosion’s impact, and you’ll be able to stay safe.”

Lil’ Red was stunned for a moment. He nodded gently and carefully put away the red feather arrows.

Only now did he realize how precious these things were. If he used them well, even if he encountered a powerful Ruler, he would be able to make his opponent suffer in silence.

Furthermore, with these items, Lil’ Red believed that even a Ruler would not dare to force him too much. Otherwise, at most, they would both suffer and perish together.

Big Yellow quietly took a few steps back and stayed away from Lil’ Red. This little distance would not change anything, but it could at least provide him some psychological comfort.

Ou Yangming gently patted Lil’ Red and said, “Keep them well. The 2 of you should slowly fumble with them and think about how to use them to bring out their greatest powers.”

He had refined 2 completely different types of equipment after careful consideration.

Lil’ Red was a true phoenix, so he naturally had a complete equipment set. Besides, due to Feng Mu, Ou Yangming believed that the little red bird had suitable treasures with him. Therefore, if Lil’ Red faced enemies, he definitely would not lack methods.

On the other hand, due to Big Yellow’s humble background, even if he had obtained the Dragons’ relic, at this stage, he could not be compared to the tall, rich, and handsome Lil’ Red.

Therefore, Ou Yangming gave Big Yellow a divine weapon that he would usually use, whereas he gave Lil’ Red a treasure that could give a life-or-death blow.

This distribution was just right.

Seeing that they had put the things away, Ou Yangming asked, “Lil’ Red, how do we enter the heart of origins?”

Lil’ Red waved the feathers on his body and explained, “This is the Origin’s Feather refined using the Phoenixes’ secret technique. It can directly enter the heart of origins. All we need to do is use the Phoenix Power to open it.” He paused for a moment before he continued, “Grandfather said that before we enter, we must have enough awareness. If you don’t want to...”

“Give it to me.” Ou Yangming smiled and interrupted him. “I’ve thought it through long ago.”

Lil’ Red hesitated for a moment, but he still obediently took off the particularly bright long feather on her body and handed it to Ou Yangming.

This long feather represented not only his trust, but also Feng Mu’s expectations.

Ou Yangming gently waved his wrist, and the Heavenly Phoenix Fire in his sea of consciousness seemed to be attracted to this item and began to boil involuntarily.

Taotie’s head, however, swayed slightly, revealing an obvious disgust. Having said that, since it was in Ou Yangming’s sea of consciousness, it did not dodge or try to devour the feather. Instead, it restrained its aura and did not affect the release of the Heavenly Phoenix Power.

This was the advantage of having 2 kinds of power in a person. If not for this, once the Dragon Power and Phoenix Power met, they would fight to the death. How could they work together so well and even fight against a strong enemy together?

The long feather shook slightly, and a wisp of Heavenly Phoenix Power was slowly injected into it. The long feather immediately burst out an incomparably bright light. That light quickly extended forward and in an instant, it expanded to a range of several kilometers.

Ou Yangming was moved, and he immediately increased the input of the Heavenly Phoenix Fire’s power.

Fortunately, his strength was no longer the same as before. Otherwise, he could not have provided the long feather with enough energy.

Of course, he would be helpless with just the strength of a Venerable One. However, when he comprehended the origin power, the situation was completely different.

To win with quality—this was Ou Yangming’s greatest magic weapon at the moment.

As the Heavenly Phoenix Power continued to strengthen, the radiance in the distance became more intense, and the radiance gradually turned from an illusion to a substance.

Ou Yangming silently sensed everything. He did not say anything, but all his energy was invested in it, and any changes in the radiance could not escape his spiritual perception.

Eventually, a look of understanding appeared on his face.

After the long feather absorbed the energy, it was not opening an ordinary teleportation passage. Instead, it seemed to be gathering energy on the spot.

Once the power was gathered to a certain extent, it would suddenly explode.

Sure enough, after an hour, the long feather in Ou Yangming’s hand let out a huge rumble.

“Pow...”

After the explosion, the entire space shook and cracked.

Following that, a black hole appeared in front of the huge dragon boat. That said, the inside of the hole was no longer black. Through the hole, countless colorful and wonderful scenes could be seen.

This was a world of difference from an ordinary Teleportation Formation.

A weird thought flashed across Ou Yangming’s mind.

‘Could it be that this so-called heart of origins isn’t a certain place, but corresponds to every space in this Great Wide World?’

Ou Yangming shook his head and cast this strange thought aside.

‘How could that be possible?’

He gathered his thoughts and looked toward Big Yellow and Lil’ Red, who gave him reassuring looks and hand gestures.

Their bodies were also filled with the courage to go forward without retreating.

This time, they could only advance.

Ou Yangming smiled as if he had thrown away everything. He looked behind him for the last time and uttered, “Let’s go.”

They flashed and finally entered the center of the Great Wide World

The heart of origins!
