Chapter 838
When one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven! It
Thanks to Zhang Lingshan, Lu Zhaohe also comprehended the Ember Bone Fire Poison, but compared to Zhang Lingshan's Ember Bone Poison Fire, it was like heaven and earth.
The Ember Bone Fire Poison is poison, a byproduct of the Ember Bone Poison Fire.
Back then, Lu Zhaohe was only slightly tainted by the Ember Bone Poison Fire, which turned half of her body into charcoal. She then used Zhang Lingshan as a vessel to transfer her fire poison, thus surviving by chance and even further enhancing her strength.
today.
Zhang Lingshan covered Lu Zhaohe's entire body with the Poisonous Flame of Ash Bones, instantly turning her into charred remains.
The task that the Ash Bone Fire Poison failed to accomplish back then has finally been fulfilled today.
However, although Lu Zhaohe turned into charred remains, she did not die immediately, and her soul was trapped inside her body.
She didn't even deserve to be a ghost; burning to ashes and having her soul scattered was her final destiny.
"Leng Yan, what are you waiting for?"
Zhang Lingshan snorted.
Leng Yan hurriedly emerged from the flying boat, wearing a ghost mask on her face and raising a soul-summoning banner in her hand, calling out loudly, "O soul, return! Brothers and sisters of Anning City, come quickly to the banner for a chat."
Hu Hu Hu.
A cold wind howled.
One after another, the red-lacquered gates were wide open in all directions, the gates of hell were wide open, and the whole city of Anning was filled with mournful wails.
"No."
"Spare me!"
"We are innocent."
Countless people screamed in agony, revealing their utter despair. They had lived for so long, thought about their future, and even how they would die, but they never imagined it would end like this.
"I told you long ago, don't go too far in doing things. Our Anning Army deserves this calamity."
One of them couldn't help but sigh.
Another person said, "You're wrong. It's precisely because we weren't ruthless enough that Zhang Lingshan escaped..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was pulled into the air by an invisible force.
"I……"
He was horrified, never expecting that even his muttered complaints amidst the chaos could be picked up by the other party.
"hehe."
Zhang Lingshan sneered and unleashed the Ember Poison Fire from his right hand, letting him and Lu Zhaohe enjoy it together.
The countless survivors who witnessed this scene were all horrified.
They're not even letting us speak.
That's really ruthless.
It seems that the only way out left for everyone is to queue up and enter the Red Painted Ghost Gate.
All the grumbling, wailing, and pleas for mercy are meaningless.
This person was determined to have everyone refine banners for him; he was truly the most wicked of demons, the most wicked of all.
He is not human!
"Qi Shuyan is my disciple! Qi Shuyan is my disciple! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
A voice rang out urgently, as if it wanted to plaster those words on its forehead.
Zhang Lingshan looked closely and saw a middle-aged man in a blue robe with a dignified appearance. He remembered that when Lu Zhaohe brought people to the Ding family, it was this man who protected Qi Shuyan. He was one of the few normal people.
Zhang Lingshan grabbed it with his right hand and pulled it in front of him, saying, "Go in."
"what?"
Sima Yue's heart trembled. Where should I go? Should I be sent into this gate of hell as well?
But soon he discovered that Zhang Lingshan's strength was very gentle, and he was sent directly onto the flying boat.
Did he survive?
Sima Yue was overjoyed.
This is more than just saving someone's life; it's like hooking up with a powerful patron, and even getting to ride in a flying boat together.
This man's strength was unlike anything he had ever seen in his life.
Sima Yue felt incredibly fortunate to have gotten close to this man.
And all of this was because he cherished talent and accepted Qi Shuyan as his disciple.
Tools, books, and words are one's own lucky stars.
Just as he was thinking of his disciple, before Sima Yue could remind Zhang Lingshan, Qi Shuyan descended from the sky and landed right next to him.
Along with Qi Shuyan were several of his close friends, whom he always talked about.
When they were in the Weapon Refining Pavilion, Qi Shuyan took good care of them.
Sima Yue initially thought that Qi Shuyan was meddling too much. "You're a genius at weapon crafting, why are you bothering with these useless people?"
But now he realized that these good-for-nothings were not only Qi Shuyan's friends, but also Zhang Lingshan's friends.
Can we ignore the words and phrases in the book? Do we dare to ignore them?
"Everyone, please introduce yourselves. I am Sima Yue, the master of Qi Shuyan, and the former head of the Weapon Refining Pavilion."
Sima Yue, a dignified Golden Immortal, lowered his posture at this moment and respectfully bowed to these minor weapon refiners whom he had previously not bothered to even glance at.
"Holy crap, Brother Shan is too awesome! I never thought I could leave the Weapon Refining Pavilion. I knew from the first moment I met Brother Shan that he was no ordinary person and would surely shake the entire Immortal Realm with his unparalleled talent!"
Wei Sheng shouted excitedly.
He felt that the best thing he had ever done in his life was to strike up a conversation with Zhang Lingshan on the first floor of the weapon-refining pavilion and impart his insignificant experience in the weapon-refining pavilion to this newcomer.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I would already be one of the ghost slaves, and I wouldn't be qualified to sit in the flying boat and drink tea.
Not to mention, the Pavilion Master of the Weapon Refining Pavilion personally greeted them and wanted to get to know them.
This is something that was unthinkable in the past, but now it has become a reality.
There's a saying that's true: sometimes, the right choice is more important than hard work!
"This humble woman, Yu Caixing, greets the Pavilion Master of the Weapon Refining Pavilion."
Yu Caixing quickly bowed to Sima Yue.
She was filled with mixed emotions. She had only lent Zhang Lingshan tens of thousands of merit points because he had saved her sister and because she admired his talent and ability.
I thought that Zhang Lingshan was rendered useless later, and all my merit points would be wasted.
But to his surprise, Zhang Lingshan gave him such a huge surprise.
How much good fortune did I accumulate in my past life to have such luck in this one?
"Alas, the title of Pavilion Master of the Weapon Refining Pavilion is now a thing of the past. If you don't mind, you can just call me Master Yue. You are all friends of Shuyan, and I am Shuyan's master. If you have any questions about weapon refining, you can ask me."
Sima Yue said with a smile.
"Master Yue."
The crowd shouted in unison.
Sima Yue is, after all, a Golden Immortal expert and the head of the Weapon Refining Pavilion. His weapon refining skills are extraordinary. Since he has already shown such a humble attitude, it would be excessive for them not to give him face.
Moreover, everyone knows that Zhang Lingshan and Qi Shuyan have the closest relationship. Sima Yue is Qi Shuyan's master, so his relationship with Zhang Lingshan is naturally relatively close as well.
Moreover, compared to these people, Sima Yue can provide Zhang Lingshan with greater assistance. At least in terms of weapon crafting, Sima Yue is the pinnacle among them.
"Master Shan, Master Shan, do you still remember me? We were the best partners, refining the Pure Lotus Pill together."
Huo Ran's voice rang out urgently.
Zhang Lingshan chuckled, grabbed him, and said with a smile, "Good partner, perfect for becoming a ghost slave. We'll continue to work together afterward."
"No."
Suddenly, a wail erupted.
Since Zhang Lingshan escaped from the Pure Lotus Pavilion, he was injured by the aftermath of Pang Mancang's methods and could no longer refine the Pure Lotus Pill. He was then sent to the paddy field area to farm, which can be described as extremely miserable.
Just when we finally saw a glimmer of hope, we were plunged back into despair.
He was filled with remorse.
He should have been nicer to Zhang Lingshan back then. He had just witnessed Zhang Lingshan send all those people into the flying boat. If he had been nicer to Zhang Lingshan and they had become friends, would he have had a chance to get into the flying boat with them?
Ugh.
There's no going back in life. Suddenly entering the gates of the ghost realm, all past events vanish like smoke, which can be a kind of liberation.
"Zhang Lingshan".
Wei Chongqian's voice rang out as he approached Zhang Lingshan, saying, "I never imagined that we would meet again in this way after we parted ways at the Alchemy Pavilion."
"hehe."
Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly: "Brother Qian is too scheming and only cares about himself. You are not my brother. Go in with Huo Ran."
"Ugh."
Wei Chongqian sighed.
He knew his fate wouldn't be much better than Huo Ran's, so he didn't call Zhang Lingshan "Master" like Huo Ran did, thus preserving his last shred of dignity.
in fact.
If only he had taken care of Zhang Lingshan a little more back then, instead of only thinking of himself and even secretly stealing Zhang Lingshan's things, Wei Chongqian might be among the people who entered the flying boat today.
What a pity!
The past cannot be undone, and no amount of regret can change that.
"Gu Nanxiang, it's been a long time."
Zhang Lingshan grabbed Gu Nanxiang, who had served as Huo Ran's fire boy alongside him.
Because Gu Nanxiang betrayed Zhang Lingshan by revealing the special nature of his water-based spiritual root, and because Gu Nanxiang herself was of little use, she was abruptly kicked out and sent to the paddy field to farm.
Afterwards, Zhang Lingshan went to the paddy fields to farm, and even used pills as a form of exchange to ask Gu Nanxiang for advice on how to farm.
The two of them communicated quite a lot.
If Gu Nanxiang had been a little more stubborn and hadn't betrayed Zhang Lingshan, she might have had a place on the flying boat today.
"Can I survive?"
Gu Nanxiang got straight to the point and asked directly.
"What do you say?"
Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly.
"Ugh."
Gu Nanxiang sighed and said, "Well, anyway, we're just waiting to die here. It's a relief to just face death now."
I'm glad you think that way.
Zhang Lingshan nodded slightly, and with a wave of his right hand, sent Gu Nanxiang into the gate of the Ghost Realm.
"Manager Eagle, how have you been?"
Zhang Lingshan grabbed out Zhao Chuanying, the former manager of the third floor of the Weapon Refining Pavilion, with his right hand once again.
Zhao Chuanying's expression was complicated: "I never expected that you would grow to such a terrifying level in just a few years. Luckily, I didn't target you back then. Can you spare my life?"
"Manager Eagle, what are you saying? You took good care of me back then, and I said I would repay you. Isn't this why I've come to repay you today?"
Zhang Lingshan said with a smile.
Zhao Chuanying was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up with unparalleled joy, and he said in a trembling voice, "Really? Really?"
He remembered Zhang Lingshan's promise to repay him, but he just treated it as a joke, since Zhang Lingshan himself was trapped in the weapon-refining pavilion, how could he possibly repay him?
and so.
Zhao Chuanying didn't take it to heart at all.
Who would have thought that Zhang Lingshan was serious, not joking or making empty promises?
They truly do what they say!
"Naturally true."
Zhang Lingshan said, "Eagle Manager, why don't you go in and rest for a bit? We're all acquaintances, so there's no need to be reserved."
Whoosh.
With a wave of his right hand, Zhao Chuanying felt a powerful force surge towards him, and before he knew it, he was already inside the flying boat.
really.
They were all acquaintances.
"Greetings, Pavilion Master."
Zhao Chuanying quickly greeted Sima Yue.
Sima Yue waved his hand: "There is no longer a Pavilion Master. It is all fate that we can gather here."
It really was fate.
Those who were not destined to be together have already been sent to the ghost realm to become ghosts.
As Gu Nanxiang said, all those who ascended to immortality and remained here had little hope for the future.
Entering the realm of ghosts is considered a form of liberation.
Of course, Zhang Lingshan could also choose to let them go.
However, destroying the entire Anning City today is a major event. Let alone letting these ascended beings go, even letting go of a cat or dog might cause unnecessary trouble.
Moreover, these people are all unregistered residents and have no way out if they leave Anning City.
Furthermore, without the support of Anning City, the Dali Dynasty would be able to conquer Beijiang City even faster.
At that time, there will be widespread devastation and death.
These people would rather die here than suffer endless torment and have their souls scattered in the future.
and so.
He definitely wouldn't release them. But when dealing with people he had no grudge against, Zhang Lingshan would send them to the Ghost Realm, directly stripping their souls away and sending them to be reincarnated.
If you are reincarnated in the celestial realm, you won't have to suffer the pain of ascension.
Isn't this a great act of kindness?
“Master Zhang, do you still remember me? We even forged weapons together.”
An old voice called out urgently.
As his turn to enter the gates of the ghost realm approached, he was unwilling to die like this, so he gritted his teeth and shouted.
"Master Pei."
Zhang Lingshan grabbed Pei Daoming with his right hand.
In a way, Pei Daoming was practically his master, because when he was a fire-tending boy following Pei Daoming in weapon forging, he learned Pei Daoming's weapon forging techniques.
Moreover, because Pei Daoming's weapon-forging was a methodical skill built up over time, it was easy for Zhang Lingshan to learn and understand, which greatly helped Zhang Lingshan in his later weapon-forging endeavors.
Out of gratitude for this half-master's kindness, Zhang Lingshan felt embarrassed to send him into the Ghost Realm, so he said, "Master Pei is an honest man, so let him go in and rest."
"Thank you very much, Master Zhang!"
Pei Daoming was overjoyed, then paused and said, "Jiang Yan has followed me for many years, could you..."
He was a little embarrassed.
What merit do I have? I'm already doing well enough to make a living, how dare I be so greedy?
"can."
With a wave of his right hand, Zhang Lingshan lifted Jiang Yan out and sent him into the flying boat.
Jiang Yan was the person in charge of helping Pei Daoming refine weapons, so it can be considered a kind of fate that he was chosen.
One more person wouldn't be a big problem; we'll give him a chance to live.
Inside the flying boat.
Pei Daoming and Jiang Yan wept bitterly, oblivious to everyone around them. Who could understand the feeling of surviving such a calamity?
"Master Zhang, do you remember me? I was the one who received you when you ascended to heaven. Yi Fengliu wasn't here at the time, but his cousin Yi Chen found me. It's fate, isn't it? Could you also give this young general a way out?"
Another voice rang out, its eyes filled with hope. (End of Chapter)
