"I am the Great Emperor Xuantian. Comprehending the Five Elements rules of the Immortal Realm is merely a trivial matter for me. Why make such a fuss?"

Zhang Lingshan said calmly.

"you!"

He Zhi Qiu was so angry he almost vomited blood. This kid was too good at bragging; wasn't he afraid of biting off more than he could chew?

"Alright, Emperor Xuantian, you are indeed remarkable, with exceptional talent. But if you want to ascend, you still have to take the path I'm about to tell you; there are no other paths for you."

He Zhi Qiu suppressed the urge to curse and continued to persuade her while running away.

Zhang Lingshan suddenly asked, "Have you ever heard of the Supreme Soul Immortal Venerable?"

"The Supreme Soul Immortal Venerable?"

He Zhi Qiu said, "Never heard of him. Is he a Celestial Venerable from the Immortal Realm? With my strength, I can't even come into contact with such a powerful being. Why are you asking this? Do you know the Extreme Soul Celestial Venerable?"

Zhang Lingshan asked, "How are the realms of immortals divided?"

He Zhi Qiu said irritably, "If you want an answer, where is your sincerity? If you won't put away the Five Elements Rules and your Flame Domain, at least put away the Avici Hellfire and your lightning bolt. I've been frantically dodging, and now I have to answer your questions? You're making things difficult for me!"

Zhang Lingshan shook his head and said, "Your array formation skills are extraordinary. If I'm not careful, you might teleport me away, which would be a huge problem. So, just answer as you say. If you don't want to answer, that's fine too. I won't force you."

"asshole!"

He Zhi Qiu was so angry that he cursed loudly, feeling so distressed that he almost vomited blood.

This kid is really too difficult to deal with, and he's completely impervious to reason. No matter what I say, I can't get him to stop his disgusting methods.

Since that's the case, why waste time arguing with him?

"You brat, you won't listen to reason, so here comes the punishment. Take this sword!"

He Zhi Qiu's face darkened, and he shouted coldly.

Tweet!
He touched his storage ring, and a bronze sword shot out, instantly transforming into countless sword shadows that slashed towards Zhang Lingshan.

Zhang Lingshan said, "So it turns out there were no weapons or magical treasures in the previous halls, but they were all here with you. You left so many rare and precious materials and pills so that the people who come in could improve their cultivation and then come here to become human candles to help you ascend, right?"

"Hmph, you know too much."

He Zhi Qiu sneered and took out another item from the ring, a silver needle.

He quickly formed hand seals and chanted incantations, and the silver needles vanished without a trace in an instant.

"Amazing."

Zhang Lingshan praised, "While being chased by my Avici Hellfire and lightning, and locked down by my Flame Domain and the Five Elements Rules, you still managed to unleash such a sneak attack. No wonder you said you were the previous Realm Lord, I believe you."

'You only believe it now?!'

He Zhi Qiu cursed inwardly, realizing that all his previous talk had been a waste of breath.

I'm so angry!

But amidst his anger, He Zhi Qiu felt a chill; he hadn't expected that the silver needles he had activated would be discovered by the other party.

You should know that because you were constantly dodging the Avici Hellfire and lightning, your speed was always very fast, and you also used the sky full of sword shadows as a decoy and cover, and the action of activating the silver needles was also very concealed.

Who knew that the other party would discover this?

This guy's eyesight is too sharp, beyond my expectations.

Judging from his cultivation level, he is only at the late stage of the Dharma Aspect Realm, and he doesn't look very old. How can he be so heaven-defying?

Where did this guy even come from?

There is such a heaven-defying talent in this mortal realm.

According to the celestial realm, when a mortal realm develops on its own and produces such extraordinary talent, it means that this mortal realm has the potential to grow into a great world.

If this mortal realm continues to develop and all its incense offerings are collected, it will surely achieve great things.

He Zhi Qiu couldn't help but feel excited.

If this news were brought to the Incense God Cult, I would have a better chance of establishing myself within the cult.

Originally, when he was transferred to the Incense God Cult, the only thing he could offer was his array formation ability. However, it was uncertain whether they would even consider him, and his future remained uncertain. This was merely his last attempt as his life was drawing to a close.

but now.

They discovered Zhang Lingshan's extraordinary talent.

He felt that his chances of being recognized by the Incense God Cult had increased many times over, which was bound to excite him.

Moreover, if this kid were transformed into a human candle and burned, it would serve as an offering for oneself.

Perhaps, one could directly improve their cultivation level and join the Incense God Sect without needing its approval.

This is the best way out for me.

"Kid, you really gave me a big surprise. So, I've decided to give you a surprise too."

He Zhi Qiu sneered and with a flick of his right hand, a huge millstone smashed down on Zhang Ling Shan's head.

Zhang Lingshan swiftly dodged, but to his surprise, the millstone did not land on the ground. Instead, just before it hit the ground, it rapidly disintegrated into palm-sized stones.

Each stone shot out, but instead of hitting Zhang Lingshan's body, it shot into various corners around the main hall.

then.

With a wave of his right hand, He Zhi Qiu summoned a disc that floated in the air, from which countless invisible threads descended.

at the same time.

He Zhi Qiu held small flags between his fingers and immediately threw them around.

These small flags grew larger in the wind, instantly transforming into sheets of cloth that blotted out the sky, connecting with the silk threads hanging from the disc, dividing the space into small sections.

And Zhang Lingshan.

It was situated within one of the spaces made of cloth.

"What an amazing formation."

Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The opponent's series of actions were truly astonishing and unpredictable.

The millstone foundation was built, the array plate was placed on top and silk threads were scattered to form meridians, and the array flags formed the skeleton and flesh.

This isn't just setting up a grand formation; it's like creating a person out of thin air.

At this moment, Zhang Lingshan felt as if he were in a small interlayer within this humanoid array.

If there is even the slightest movement within the humanoid formation, Zhang Lingshan, a nobody, will be frantically squeezed, cut, and strangled by the various forces within the formation...

At this moment, Zhang Lingshan felt extremely small.

Even though this main hall is only so big, no matter how large the human-shaped formation is, it can't possibly be larger than the main hall.

If Zhang Lingshan wanted to walk through the entire hall, it would only take him a dozen or so steps.

but now.

No matter how he walked through the strips of cloth within this humanoid array, he couldn't find a way out, as if he were a tiny ant, completely trapped here.

Forget about finding a way out, he seemed to have lost his sense of space, feeling as if he was facing not this great hall, but a vast and boundless world.

Faced with such a vast world, where one cannot even see the end, how can one possibly escape?
"It's the rule of space!"

Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "As expected of a powerful expert capable of inscribing so many interdimensional teleportation array patterns, this mastery of spatial rules is something even I, the Xuan Tian Emperor, can only dream of." "Hmph."

He Zhi Qiu sneered, "Now you know how powerful it is, but too bad, flattery won't work."

"Today, you must transform into a human candle to help me ascend to heaven!"

"Originally, I designed these grand halls so that countless people would enter and explore them, pass through various trials, and consume the cultivation treasures and elixirs I bestowed upon them before finally entering this place, transforming into human candles to help me ascend to immortality."

"But it seems that it's not necessary to go through all that trouble. You alone are enough. Hahaha!"

He Zhi Qiu couldn't help but burst into a triumphant laugh.

Although it was different from the plan, the result was the same.

In any case, only he will ascend to immortality.

I gave this kid a chance before, letting him go out and capture people so I could help him ascend to immortality, but he refused.

Now, you've got what you wanted, haven't you?

I, He Zhi Qiu, simply didn't want to make a big show of it, lest I waste my already limited lifespan and these treasures I've collected for so many years. Did you really think I was afraid of you?
I once served as an official in the Daqing Dynasty, but was later overthrown and became the Lord of the Realm. I've walked more roads than you've eaten salt. You think you're worthy to fight me?

Hmph, you ungrateful brat, you'll have to suffer the consequences of your refusal to listen to reason.

Now you know what fear is, huh?

late!

According to He Zhi Qiu's thinking, this kid should be begging for mercy now, kneeling down and showing his ugly side.

And I will reject him without hesitation, letting him die in despair.

but.

To He Zhi Qiu's surprise.

Instead of begging for mercy, the other party laughed.

"hehe."

Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly and said, "What powerful spatial rules, what powerful formations. Now, they will all become mine."

Say it.

His body turned golden, and countless rivers of blood shot out from his entire body, spreading overwhelmingly into the formation.

Since it's an array, it must have array patterns.

Even the most inconspicuous array pattern can be imprinted into the bones of the Xuanjin body as long as one's Xuanjin blood falls into it.

Hahaha.

Zhang Lingshan wasn't afraid of He Zhi Qiu activating the formation; he was only afraid that his Xuanjin body wouldn't be able to absorb the formation.

But now it seems there's absolutely no need to worry.

After all the blood had been spilled, Zhang Lingshan discovered that the array patterns had begun to be imprinted into his bones one by one.

Not only did the Xuanjin body begin to absorb the array patterns continuously, but the Yanwanfa was also frantically deducing, absorbing, and refining them.

all in all.

When He Zhi Qiu activated his formation, he exposed his formation patterns, and his formation techniques naturally became Zhang Ling Shan's.

"you!"

He Zhi Qiu's expression changed drastically, his whole body trembled, and he let out a terrified scream: "The Profound Gold Body! Is this the Profound Gold Body? Who exactly are you, and why do you possess the Profound Gold Body? This is one of the Ten Great Physiques of the Immortal Realm, why was you born here? No!"

He Zhi Qiu was in despair.

It let out a desperate wail.

Although this was the first time he had seen a Xuanjin body, he had once been an official of the Great Qing Dynasty in the Immortal Realm, so he knew more about it than Chen Xuanjiang and Yin Henghe did.

According to legend, the Xuanjin Body is known as the Body of Array Formation, the Body of Divine Artifact, and the Body of Talisman.

It is because the person with the Xuanjin body can control all the patterns in the world.

Whether it's array patterns, weapon patterns, or runes, they can all be mastered and used to deal with enemies.

Not to mention these three types of patterns, even the patterns on pills, the pill patterns, are said to be mastered by those with the Xuanjin body.

Otherwise, how could the owner of that Xuanjin body have improved so quickly?

He must be able to absorb elixirs in a way that is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, which is why he was able to improve so quickly.

In addition, there may be other unknown patterns that can be absorbed by it.

In any case, this Xuanjin Body is an extraordinary body, too invincible, which is why it became the target of everyone's attacks. It was only through the combined efforts of powerful immortals that the owner of that Xuanjin Body was finally captured.

And now.

This heaven-defying Xuanjin body actually appeared in front of He Zhi Qiu at this moment, and even began to cover its own formation with blood.

What is this for?
Absorb its own formation?

Ruined!
How can we fight?
His greatest trump card was his array formation techniques, but they were completely countered by the opponent's Xuanjin body.

Then you'd be a useless person in front of others, completely at their mercy.

No wonder this guy didn't care about his suggestion.

It turns out that they don't need me at all; they can teleport using the teleportation array.

It seems that the teleportation array patterns in my main hall have all become this kid's assets, absorbed by him.

It was his own doing that sent the teleportation array to the other person, rendering his mastery of array formations useless.

Thinking of this, He Zhi Qiu couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

He never imagined that he would be the one to dig his own grave.

"The Great Emperor Xuantian".

He Zhi Qiu suddenly said, "Since you possess the Xuanjin Body, I admit defeat."

"But considering that I have provided you with so many array patterns, you can be considered half a disciple of me, He Zhi Qiu, in the art of array formations."

"I don't ask you to spare my life, I only ask you to do me a favor. When I arrive in the Immortal Realm, there is a man named He Qiankun in the Daqing Dynasty. Please help me kill him."

"The items in my storage ring contain records of the Daqing Dynasty. They should be useful to you, so I won't destroy them. I'm giving them to you."

As he was about to die, He Zhi Qiu did not intend to beg for mercy. Instead, he was quite generous and threw his storage ring over.

Zhang Lingshan grabbed the storage ring, his divine sense penetrating it. He glanced at it casually and said, "I have no grudge against He Qiankun, and I do not kill the innocent indiscriminately. You can bring up another condition, such as whether you have any relatives in the Immortal Realm. I can help you take care of them."

"Relatives?"

He Zhi Qiu gave a bitter laugh upon hearing this: "My family members have probably long since turned to dust. The reason I went to such lengths to return to the Immortal Realm was simply to kill He Qiankun and avenge my family. As for you saying He Qiankun is innocent, heh. Once you get to the Immortal Realm, you'll see that this person can't possibly be innocent. Alright, my lifespan has come to an end, so I'll just go. There's nothing left for me to cherish in this world."

Say it.

He sat down cross-legged, his physical body turned to ashes, and vanished into the world.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Lingshan cried out in regret.

Neither the other party's soul nor their physical body was absorbed; it was all wasted.

It wasn't that Zhang Lingshan was too slow; it was simply that his opponent was too decisive. (End of Chapter)
