Chapter 789
Kill Pang Mancang! You all better run!
“Miss Bai, I haven’t introduced you yet. This is Elder Pang. He’s suffering from fire poison and can’t show his face. But Elder Pang is a Golden Immortal and has helped us a lot along the way. If your subordinate has nothing to do, why don’t you lend a hand? This is also his opportunity.”
Lei Shuo quickly replied.
Bai Wanxi was startled. It was actually a Golden Immortal expert. How could she refuse?
"It is my honor to be able to suppress the fire poison for Elder Pang."
Zhang Lingshan said.
He knew he couldn't leave no matter what. Pang Mancang had finally found someone like him who could suppress the fire poison, so how could he let him leave?
and so.
Even if you're unwilling, you have to listen and help others.
"Then thank you very much, brother."
Lei Shuo was overjoyed and made a gesture of invitation, asking Zhang Lingshan to sit in Pang Mancang's carriage.
But he didn't dare approach Pang Mancang's carriage; he just watched from a distance.
Wow!
As soon as Zhang Lingshan opened the curtain of the carriage, he felt a wave of heat rushing towards him.
Inside the carriage sat an elderly man with a ruddy complexion and deep wrinkles. He smiled slightly at Zhang Lingshan and said, "I would appreciate your help, young brother."
"We will do our utmost."
As Zhang Lingshan sat down next to Pang Mancang, his body naturally generated icy spiritual energy, which countered the ash-bone fire poison on Pang Mancang's body.
He discovered that Pang Mancang's body was heavily poisoned by fire.
Although it wasn't as badly burned as Lu Zhaohe's previous half-body, she was still injured in addition to the fire poison, which made it impossible to suppress the fire poison, causing it to escape.
It was also thanks to the fact that this carriage was extraordinary, with a shielding and confining array on it that the interior of the carriage was protected.
Otherwise, if this fire poison were to escape, even a peak Xuanxian expert like Lei Shuo might be able to withstand it, but ordinary people would not be able to.
"The young man is sweating."
Pang Mancang looked concerned and reached out to touch Zhang Lingshan's forehead, as if to wipe away the sweat.
Zhang Lingshan quickly raised his hand, wiped the sweat from his brow, and said, "Thank you for your concern, senior. I'm fine."
Pang Mancang said, "But you've been suppressing the fire poison for so long, you must be tired. Have something to eat."
As he spoke, he took out a bowl of rice from his storage ring and said, "This is top-grade spirit rice, have a taste."
Zhang Lingshan quickly waved his hand: "Top-grade spirit rice, this is too precious, we can't accept it."
"You helped me suppress the fire poison, and all you did was give me a bowl of rice. What's so precious about that? Am I not even worth a bowl of rice?"
Pang Mancang feigned anger and said, "Eat quickly!"
Zhang Lingshan took the rice, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Could you heat it up? I'm not used to eating it cold."
Upon hearing this, Pang Mancang suddenly revealed a mocking smile and said, "What, do you think I'm trying to harm you?"
"I wouldn't dare," Zhang Lingshan said.
Pang Mancang snorted coldly: "Young man, it's good to be vigilant, but being overly vigilant won't do you any good."
After saying that, he changed the subject and said, "However, since you don't like to eat it, then don't eat it. But this is the reward I'm giving you. It's not that I'm not giving it to you, but that you don't want it. Do you understand?"
“This junior understands completely; it is this junior who is ungrateful. If senior wishes to send this junior away, this junior will get out immediately.”
Zhang Lingshan said.
Pang Mancang laughed heartily: "Interesting. You are the most interesting young man I have ever met. Impressive, the younger generation is truly formidable."
After saying that, he closed his eyes slightly and ignored Zhang Lingshan.
However, since the other party ignored Zhang Lingshan, Zhang Lingshan dared not stop suppressing the fire poison for them.
Right now, he's just a free laborer.
However, Zhang Lingshan's work wasn't entirely free.
He had already mastered the basics of the Ember Bone Poison Fire, and now he could use the Ember Bone Poison Fire on Pang Mancang's body to comprehend its effects.
Although Zhang Lingshan did use ice-type spiritual energy to help Pang Mancang suppress the Ember Bone Fire Poison, he was merely using external force, only providing assistance.
The most important suppressive force still depends on Pang Mancang himself.
While Pang Mancang silently circulated his cultivation technique and mobilized his immortal spiritual power to suppress the Ember Bone Fire Poison, Zhang Lingshan could secretly observe his movements.
Firstly, when Zhang Lingshan suppressed the poison with ice-type spiritual energy, he would naturally come into contact with the Ember Bone Fire Poison, and since the Ember Bone Fire Poison was in Pang Mancang's body, it naturally overlapped with his cultivation path.
Secondly, Zhang Lingshan had also mastered the basics of the Ember Bone Poison Fire technique, and could even detect the aura of Pang Mancang's Ember Bone Poison Fire to observe its cultivation path.
By verifying each other, the techniques of Pang Mancang can be gradually simulated.
Once Zhang Lingshan learns the techniques, he will know himself and his enemy, and will be invincible.
Even if he couldn't kill this Golden Immortal expert who was above his level, it was impossible for him, Zhang Lingshan, to be killed.
and so.
Zhang Lingshan suppressed his emotions very seriously, and could be said to be wholeheartedly serving Pang Mancang.
This left Pang Mancang with absolutely no fault to find, and he felt that this kid was truly a talent, and it would be great if he could keep him by his side at all times to keep him in check.
Unfortunately, this kid is too wary. He not only won't let me touch him, but he also won't eat the top-grade spirit rice.
If we forcibly subdue him, I'm afraid this kid will resist fiercely and refuse to yield, which would be troublesome.
Although they hadn't known each other for long, Pang Mancang could sense that this young man was not so easy to handle. If he hadn't been injured or poisoned by fire, taking him down would have been a piece of cake.
But now, I have to be careful and not push the other party too hard. If we fight to the death, I will lose a worker who can suppress the fire poison.
and so.
After careful consideration, Pang Mancang ultimately decided not to make a move and continued to keep his eyes closed, silently enduring Zhang Lingshan's suppression.
It's no wonder he was captivated by Zhang Lingshan's ice-type spiritual energy; it was only because of Zhang Lingshan's suppression that he could more freely circulate his own cultivation techniques to heal his injuries.
As he continues to heal, his strength will gradually recover.
However, because the opponent was constantly using ice-based techniques to suppress his fire poison, his immortal spiritual power was greatly depleted.
In other words, as time goes by, the balance of power will shift, making it easier for me to deal with this kid. Then I can take him down in one fell swoop and make him my dog. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
Pang Mancang's idea is excellent and reasonable; there's nothing wrong with it.
But if he knew Zhang Lingshan's abilities and what he was doing, he wouldn't be so confident.
It's said that one thing rises while the other falls, but it's still uncertain who will rise and who will fall!
[Green Wood Longevity Technique: Beginner, 0/10]
[Energy Points: 55]
Add some points.
When Pang Mancang's martial arts technique appeared on the panel, Zhang Lingshan immediately added points to it and mastered the basics.
The Azure Wood Longevity Technique is a dual-elemental cultivation method of water and wood, indicating that Pang Mancang possesses both water and wood spiritual roots. Zhang Lingshan, in cultivating this technique, does not need to further refine it to perfection; he only needs to place it within the Myriad Mysteries Gate for the lesser beings to comprehend, and then integrate it into his own Myriad Laws True Scripture.
Therefore, the current beginner level is sufficient and there is no need to consume energy points anymore.
As time went by, Zhang Lingshan's understanding of the Green Wood Longevity Technique deepened, and he developed a concrete plan on how to deal with Pang Mancang.
However, he remained calm and continued to help Pang Mancang suppress the Ember Bone Fire Poison, which greatly helped him increase his experience points for the Ember Bone Fire Poison.
【Ember Poison Fire: Beginner, 10 Rewards/1000 Rewards】
'We've been traveling for about ten days and ten nights, and each day gives me 1 experience point. If I keep this old thing tied to my waist, I can master the basics of the Ember Bone Poison Fire technique in three years.'
Zhang Lingshan thought to himself.
"What are you thinking?"
Pang Mancang suddenly opened his eyes, a mocking smile on his face, and suddenly thrust his right hand into Zhang Lingshan's chest.
At the same time, he made a sword-finger gesture with his left hand, aiming straight for Zhang Lingshan's brow.
boom!
With a loud bang, Zhang Lingshan retreated hastily, and the entire carriage was instantly blown to pieces, along with the horses pulling it, which were also instantly blasted into dust and turned into a cloud of blood mist.
"What happened!?"
The crowd gasped in surprise and hurriedly retreated, feeling half of their bodies burning hot and the other half freezing cold, and they all shivered uncontrollably.
Even with Lei Shuo's peak Xuanxian strength, he didn't dare to approach rashly. He just shouted urgently, "Elder Pang, Brother Li, has the fire poison been unable to be suppressed and exploded?"
Zhang Lingshan sneered and said, "This is because some people are poisonous and want to harm their savior, which is why it exploded."
"what?"
Lei Shuo was taken aback and looked at Elder Pang in surprise, saying, "Brother Li helped you suppress the fire poison, Elder Pang, why did you harm him?"
"Shut up!"
Pang Mancang snorted coldly and said, "Little thing, you've been hiding your true strength. How did you manage to dodge in an instant? How did you figure out the angle of my attack?"
The so-called angle of attack appears to be simply two hands pointing at Zhang Lingshan's chest and brow respectively, but that is only the surface.
In fact, the moment Pang Mancang made his move, he used the array in the entire carriage, and at the same time, his immortal spiritual power locked onto Zhang Lingshan from all directions.
According to Pang Mancang's plan, this was foolproof. This kid spent ten days and ten nights suppressing the fire poison for himself. During this time, he did not eat anything to replenish his energy, which had already caused him great depletion. Moreover, he was obviously sweating profusely, his aura showed signs of decline, and his eyes were even somewhat unfocused.
Logically speaking, with the help of the chariot formation and a comprehensive attack, taking him down should be a piece of cake.
But the result was unexpected.
This kid not only dodged my attacks with both hands, but also broke the formation. My immortal spiritual power that was locking onto him had no effect at all.
You should know that your Green Wood Longevity Technique can condense Green Wood seeds, and with the help of the water-based spiritual energy in the world, the Green Wood seeds can quickly sprout and form invisible branches to lock down the enemy.
Let alone a mere late-stage Xuanxian youth, even a Golden Immortal expert would suffer a loss if caught off guard and unaware of this technique.
But this kid actually dodged it, as if he already knew what I was going to do.
How did he do that?
"You want to know how I figured it out?"
Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly and said, "How much cunning can beasts possess? It only adds to the laughter. Even a fool could see through such trivial tricks. If you can't even understand this, you've lived so many years in vain. Just kill yourself, you old bastard."
"How dare you!"
Pang Mancang was furious. He flicked his right hand, and a golden light streaked across the sky, hurtling toward Zhang Lingshan.
But the instant he made his move, a long spear suddenly shot out from the ground beneath him, piercing him from the buttocks to the head.
The spear was made of ice, and it hissed as it released a large amount of icy energy, instantly forming an ice pillar that completely froze Pang Mancang inside.
Everyone was stunned.
Elder Pang is a powerful Golden Immortal, even if he is injured or poisoned by fire, he is still a Golden Immortal.
But he was actually defeated by a mere late-stage Xuanxian?
Moreover, he was defeated after making the first move, even though the other side had already taken the initiative.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, who would believe that such a thing could exist in the world?
As everyone knows, a Golden Immortal is like a fish leaping over the Dragon Gate; they are powerful beings who have undergone tribulations. The difference between them and Xuan Immortals is greater than the difference between a human and a dog.
As a result, a powerful Golden Immortal fell just like that?
Who exactly is this Li Xuanbing, that he possesses such a supreme ice treasure capable of dealing with even a Golden Immortal?
How terrifying must the powerful backer behind them be?
Swish!
Just as Pang Mancang was frozen by Zhang Lingshan's spear attack treasure obtained from the ice chamber, Pang Mancang's golden magic weapon also shot towards Zhang Lingshan's chest, but Zhang Lingshan casually caught it and threw it into his ring.
A Golden Immortal expert must have many treasures at hand, but Pang Mancang must have expended too much energy escaping the Anning Army's encirclement, leaving him with few usable treasures.
Or rather, even if he possessed powerful offensive magic weapons, he felt it was unnecessary to use them against Zhang Lingshan, a mere late-stage Xuanxian. It would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, a huge waste.
Therefore, because of this small mistake, he was captured by Zhang Lingshan in one fell swoop.
However, this cannot be blamed on Pang Mancang.
Who would have thought that the moment Zhang Lingshan blew up the carriage, he secretly set up an array on the ground and hid the Frost Spear inside it?
While Pang Mancang's attention was focused on Zhang Lingshan, Zhang Lingshan deliberately provoked him to make a move.
Just as Pang Mancang made his move, Zhang Lingshan activated the Ember Bone Poison Fire that he had already planted in Pang Mancang's body, causing Pang Mancang's actions to falter.
At the same time, the Frost Spear was unleashed from the formation and pierced through Pang Mancang directly.
According to Zhao Xingqiu, this icy spear was given to Zhang Lingshan by the Ice Immortal because she saw his talent and didn't want him to have an accident outside.
Although it is an offensive magic weapon, it is mainly used to clash with Golden Immortal level experts, and then use the other two magic weapons for defense and escape.
Who could have predicted that Zhang Lingshan would use this magic weapon to kill a Golden Immortal?
This is truly defying all conventions.
As a Xuanxian, let alone killing a Jinxian, daring to attack a Jinxian powerhouse is already incredibly audacious; you don't know the meaning of death.
But Zhang Lingshan not only took action, he actually killed the other party.
This scene completely shattered everyone's expectations.
Whether it was Lei Shuo, Bai Wanxi, or the others in their caravan, they all stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with utter disbelief, their mouths agape, unable to utter a single word.
The Golden Immortal expert, Elder Pang, died so simply and directly?
impossible.
He was probably only temporarily sealed by the ice pillars, not killed, because a Golden Immortal wouldn't die so easily.
and so.
Time is running out for Li Xuanbing.
Run away quickly.
"Miss Bai, you'd better leave quickly. Once Elder Pang shatters the ice pillar and emerges, you'll have nowhere to escape. The wrath of a Golden Immortal won't be directed at just one person; your entire caravan will be wiped out!" (End of Chapter)
