Ou Yangming’s face changed. He immediately closed the bottle’s cap but when he took a glance, he noticed that a bit of the immortal liquid had indeed been lost.
An ordinary person could not have distinguished the difference in the amount, but every change was visible to Ou Yangming when he looked with his mental conception. He had opened the bottle that stored the first drop of immortal liquid, and there was no change to the liquid when the bottle was sealed. Once he opened it again and allowed the fragrance inside to be released, a tenth of the drop of liquid was lost.
Although the remaining liquid was still considered a drop, to people like Ou Yangming, it had depreciated very much.
“Lil’ Red, what exactly is the function of this thing?” Ou Yangming asked in a deep voice.
The little red bird flapped its wings and answered, “It’s a rare immortal liquid. Apart from its basic function of prolonging one’s life, it’s also… Multifunctional.”
“What?” Ou Yangming was stunned.
“The Tree of Splendour’s immortal liquid has the most functions; it can be used to smith treasures, refine immortal pills, and even draw formation maps.” The little red bird hopped and added, “It’s the lowest-ranked immortal liquid but owing to its wide range of functions, it’s not inferior to certain middle-ranked immortal liquids at all.”
“Are there many other types of immortal liquid?” Ou Yangming was moved.
“Yes, there are a few hundred types of them in my inherited memories.” The little red bird pondered and continued, “These immortal liquids are also a transaction currency for top-notch powerhouses in the upper realm, so you keep more of them because they’ll be very beneficial in the future.”
Ou Yangming nodded. He realized that the immortal liquid’s functions were far beyond his imagination but based on his abilities and knowledge at the moment, he could not fully release them. Perhaps when he entered the upper realm and gained more experience, he would be able to utilize the item well.
“Woof…” Big Yellow barked at Ou Yangming and looked at him eagerly.
The young fellow shook his head and retrieved a jade bottle with 10 drops of immortal liquid, then he handed it to the dog. “This is your reward.”
Big Yellow beamed right away, and it opened its mouth to swallow the immortal liquid.
The little red bird tilted its head and stared at Big Yellow, then it blurted, “Hey, how did you find the Tree of Splendour?”
Ou Yangming was dumbfounded, ‘Right, even the little red bird didn’t know about the Tree of Splendour’s existence, so how did Big Yellow find out about it?’
Big Yellow was startled for a while before it answered, “I have no idea either. I just felt like something good was calling out to me over there, so I went over to take a look.”
“Something good was calling out to you?” The little red bird flapped its wings and flew down from Ou Yangming’s shoulder to land on Big Yellow’s head.
The big yellow dog instantly froze. It was not aware of the little red birds’ identity, but it could sense the enormous power contained in the bird’s body. No living being would dare to act rashly if such a malefic creature was on one’s head.
“Can you sense the Tree of Splendour now?”
“I can!” Big Yellow slowly turned its neck and fixed its gaze on the Long Feather Band on Ou Yangming’s wrist.
The little red bird slapped the dog’s head and reprimanded it, “I’m asking if you can sense the Tree of Splendour’s existence, not if you know where it is!”
Big Yellow quivered and responded as though it was wronged, “I can sense the Tree of Splendour indeed, and it’s right there.”
The little bird blinked. Nobody knew what it was thinking.
Ou Yangming vaguely sensed something unordinary, so he asked softly, “What is it?”
“I’d like to experiment,” the little red bird answered after some thought. Following that, it floated in the air and spat out a red light, which surrounded Big Yellow. The light flickered at first, but it soon turned into a gigantic fire with a scorching temperature.
Big Yellow curled up its body. It was a formidable spirit beast, but it acted conscientiously in front of the blazing fire.
The little red bird returned to Ou Yangming’s shoulder and said, “Prepare a few interspatial bags as I’ll be using them.”
Ou Yangming wondered and questioned, “Are you going to test Big Yellow’s ability?”
“Yes. This puppy says it can sense the Tree of Splendour’s existence, but I don’t believe it.” The little red bird’s eyes glowed with strange lights. “I must expose it.”
“Lil’ Red, why are you being so active in this? Could it be that…” Ou Yangming shook his head, but his eyes soon lit up. “Does it mean anything if Big Yellow can really sense the Tree of Splendour?”
Faced with Ou Yangming’s questioning look, the little red bird began thinking again and finally calmed down. “If this puppy isn’t lying to us, we might’ve stumbled upon a precious treasure. Quickly, let’s try!” It flapped its wings again and urged the young fellow.

It was not confident about Big Yellow, but Ou Yangming felt differently about it because he knew the big yellow dog would not be so bored that it would lie about it.
Even so, he was also curious about how much Big Yellow was capable of.
Ou Yangming casually retrieved a few interspatial bags. He was short of anything but unused interspatial bags, such that he could even keep some miscellaneous items in them and nothing would be affected.
The little red bird’s eyes shone as it channeled its mental conception into the Long Feather Band’s space. Once its conception began to assemble, the Tree of Splendour slowly detached from the turtle’s shell bit by bit.
“Woosh…”
Rumbling sounds of waves were heard, causing the sleeping spirit turtle to lazily lift its head from the water.
The fellow could hardly be affected by foreign things if it was deep asleep. Unless it was provoked by a mighty figure like Hong Feiyu, it would devote itself to being a coward.
Having said that, there was a drastic change when the Tree of Splendour on the turtle’s back began to shake.
The spirit turtle awoke from its sleep at once and raised its large head. Nevertheless, its sleepy eyes made it look dazed as if it had only woken up instinctively.
Ou Yangming shook his head and sighed. He channeled his mental conception inside and informed the turtle, “Lazy turtle, you may continue to sleep because this is none of your business.”
The spirit turtle nodded blankly but spotted the rising Tree of Splendour. “What’s that? Can you leave it for me?”
Ou Yangming was moved. It looked like Tree of Splendour’s appearance did not alert the spirit turtle, and the merge between them was actually done subconsciously. It was when someone wanted to take the plant away the spirit turtle sensed it and awoke.
Moreover, Ou Yangming could tell from the spirit turtle’s tone that it valued the Tree of Splendour very much. If it was not because it knew it could not defeat the young fellow, it would have taken forcible possession of it.
“Lazy turtle, we’re using this item for an experiment, and I’ll send it back here once we’re done.” Ou Yangming chuckled and added after a pause. “Before you leave me, you’ll be in charge of looking after it.”
The spirit turtle blinked its huge eyes and was still reluctant to part with the Tree of Splendour, but Ou Yangming did not bother and withdrew it from the space inside his Long Feather Band.
He looked at the 5 interspatial bags in front of him and thought for a while before he placed the plant inside one of them. Despite that, it was merely a beginning because he retrieved it after 30 seconds and placed it in another interspatial bag. By repeating the steps until all 5 of the interspatial bags contracted the smell of the plant, the young fellow casually placed it in one of the bags.
The little red bird did not understand what Ou Yangming was doing at first, but it could not help but praise him toward the end.
Regardless of Big Yellow’s cultivation base, it was still a dog and had a notable sense of smell. Nonetheless, after Ou Yangming created such confusion, even a dog ancestor would not be able to tell the bags apart.
The little red bird opened its mouth and inhaled, causing the flames to disappear and revealed Big Yellow, which was curled up and was trembling.
“Big Yellow.” Ou Yangming went forward and rubbed its head as he took pity on it, but he could not understand why the potent spirit beasts feared the little red bird’s flames so much. The young fellow had touched the flames before but apart from warmth and friendliness, he did not feel anything else.
The big yellow dog looked up at Ou Yangming with tears in its eyes. As such, the young fellow felt guilty because it seemed inappropriate to put the yellow dog in the flames because of a test.
“Hey, snap out of it. Quickly find it for me!” The little red bird ordered arrogantly.
Big Yellow dared not delay the matter, so it went forward and sniffed the 5 interspatial bags.
Ou Yangming and the little red bird looked at each other and were having the same thought, ‘This fella is indeed searching for it with its nose.’
Just as they thought Big Yellow could not tell them apart, its nose stopped on one of the bags, and its eyes lit up. “I found it—it’s here!”
The little bird and the young yellow exchanged glances and looked like they had just seen a ghost.
This was because Ou Yangming had indeed put the Tree of Splendour inside that bag.
Ou Yangming took a deep breath and asked, “Big Yellow, how did you find it?”
Big Yellow blinked and answered, “I have no idea either, but I felt like something inside is calling out to me.”
The young fellow turned to look at the little red bird, which scoffed and remarked, “Alright, you pass. You may go take a rest now.”
Big Yellow barked softly and left the room, then it went to the side room to have a peaceful sleep.
It was not a pet but a spirit beast, hence the treatment it received was not worse than that received by Hong Feiyu at all.
“How was it?” Ou Yangming asked in a deep voice.
The little red bird chirped for some time before it said, “My inherited memories tell me that there used to be a unique kind of Treasure-hunting Beasts, which had wonderful senses toward precious treasures that produce immortal liquids. But these Treasure-hunting Beasts should’ve been extinct long ago, so how can there be any of them left?”
