Jidao Wusheng: I am invincible in my flesh and tear the weirdness apart with my bare hands

"No, Sect Master, it's not that Anning City was destroyed, it's that Anning City is gone! The entire city has vanished, including all the people, all the buildings, all the paddy fields, even the underground cellars, all that's left is a pit. Everything has disappeared, not even a blade of grass is left!"

Aunt Qian quickly interrupted Shen Zhixin's wild thoughts.

The focus now is not whether Zhang Lingshan has exposed his identity as the Holy Son, but what exactly this guy did to make the entire Anning City disappear.

If he didn't do it, then why did he hide his whereabouts before? No one else but him has such a deep grudge against Anning City.

Even if there is a grudge, no one has the ability to make the entire Anning City disappear.

Because if someone truly possesses such abilities, no matter how powerful Anning City is, they can't afford to offend them.

Therefore, after analysis...

Grandma Qian believed that their mysterious Holy Son of the Ice Spirit Sect was the most likely person to do such a thing.

Because this guy has many secrets, his ice-based techniques alone are already quite incredible.

In short.

Even she and Shen Zhixin, both at the peak of the Immortal King realm, couldn't see through this kid. Although it was outrageous that he could make the entire Anning City disappear, Granny Qian had more suspicious candidates, and could only guess that it was Zhang Lingshan.

"Everything has disappeared? Not destroyed, not dead, just vanished?"

Shen Zhixin was taken aback.

She was still a little taken aback.

What does it mean to disappear?

A city just vanished into thin air?
"Yes, the entire city has vanished, disappeared! It's as if it never existed! There's no trace of it left."

Grandma Qian said, word by word.

Shen Zhixin remained silent for a long time: "Then that means no one knows it was Zhang Lingshan who did it?"

“Indeed, no trace was left,” said Granny Qian.

Shen Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. Let's not mention this matter again. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. Let the Daqing Dynasty deal with it themselves. Besides, it's not even certain whether Zhang Lingshan did it. You're just speculating."

Granny Qian nodded and said, "Yes, I misspoke. This matter has nothing to do with the Holy Son, and even less to do with our Ice Spirit Sect."

After they finished speaking, they both fell silent for a long while.

For a moment, it all felt somewhat absurd.

Who exactly is this Holy Son? He's just a nobody who ascended from the mortal realm. No matter how talented he is, he only has great potential and a higher probability of becoming a powerful figure in the future. He doesn't possess such incredible abilities at the Golden Immortal level.

Did this guy actually ascend to heaven?

Could it be that they did something to hide in Anning City, and even fooled the two of them?

Would taking this person in as their Ice Spirit Sect's Holy Son be considered inviting a wolf into the house?
Shen Zhixin couldn't help but think this.

Qian Da Po thought differently; she became even more convinced that Zhang Lingshan was the reincarnation of their Liuli Sect's sect leader.

Otherwise, how could he be so extraordinary?

Only those who are reincarnated from the strongest can do things against the heavens even at a low level.

"What's with this celestial energy funnel? Is someone breaking through to a higher realm here?"

Suddenly, Granny Qian broke the silence, as if she had only just noticed the strange phenomenon at Saint Son Peak. She couldn't help but say, "But that's not right. This kind of phenomenon only appears when breaking through to a higher realm. In other words, top geniuses undergo a transformation when they break through to Golden Immortal or Immortal Lord after being baptized by lightning tribulation, allowing them to absorb so much immortal spiritual energy."

As she spoke, she couldn't help but look at Shen Zhixin, wondering if the sect leader had used some secret technique of the Ice Spirit Sect that she didn't know about in order to help the Holy Son break through as soon as possible.

"Don't look at me, it has nothing to do with me."

Shen Zhixin quickly waved her hand and said, "I only came to check because I sensed something unusual in the Ice Spirit Sect. That's when I saw this scene."

"Incredible."

Granny Qian exclaimed, "Such a dense funnel-shaped cloud of immortal spiritual energy, yet the immortal spiritual energy within our Ice Spirit Sect hasn't been drawn in. Instead, it's been replenished by the immortal spiritual energy escaping from this funnel-shaped cloud. Clearly, all this immortal spiritual energy comes from the Holy Son himself. How many spirit stones does he need?"

Shen Zhixin's expression twitched slightly.

They previously claimed that the disappearance of Anning City had nothing to do with the Holy Son, but this has proven them wrong.

If the Holy Son hadn't emptied Anning City, where would he have gotten so many spirit stones to form the immortal spiritual energy funnel?

This is a cultivation effort that gathers the resources of an entire city.

Even she, the sect leader, never imagined that she could cultivate so arrogantly.

But their holy son did it.

"Didn't you say that Zhang Lingshan is good at alchemy and weapon crafting? He must have accumulated all of these."

Shen Zhixin said something indifferently, then left without looking back, went back to her small thatched hut, sat cross-legged, and closed her eyes to rest.

She didn't want to look anymore; the more she looked, the more doubts she had, and the more alarmed she became.

Is it a blessing or a curse to take this guy in and make him our holy son?

Can't tell.

I can't figure it out.

Therefore, she could only adopt the ostrich tactic, ignoring it and not thinking about it, otherwise she would be caught in a dilemma, and she knew how worried and painful Shen Zhixin was.

This is detrimental to her inner peace.

Granny Qian, however, didn't think so much. She simply stared at Saint Son Peak, thinking to herself, 'How long will it take to absorb such a vast funnel of immortal spiritual energy? The excess spiritual energy will likely dissipate, mostly benefiting the ordinary disciples of the Ice Spirit Sect. The Holy Son truly lives up to his name; he doesn't concern himself with personal gain—so magnanimous!'

pity.

Aunt Qian sighed inwardly again.

Unfortunately, their Ice Spirit Sect has a special status and is not a local force of the Great Qing Dynasty.

Although they have the backing of Kong Nangui, a powerful Immortal Venerable of the Daqing Dynasty, the Kong family has been driven away by Kong Nangui and has no influence in the capital, so they cannot help them obtain Immortal King positions.

Although the Holy Son is powerful, he doesn't have a spot for Immortal King, so no matter how powerful he is, he can only stay at the peak of Immortal Lord.

This is extremely disadvantageous for the Holy Son.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse that the Holy Son has joined their Ice Spirit Sect is truly unknown.

Unlike Shen Zhixin, Qian Dapo was thinking of Zhang Lingshan, wondering whether this would be a blessing or a curse for him.

Shen Zhixin was thinking of their Ice Spirit Sect, unsure whether it would bring them fortune or misfortune.

After all.

Qian Da Po was closer to Zhang Lingshan.

After all, this person is very likely the reincarnation of their Glazed Tile School's sect leader.

What kind of Holy Son of the Ice Spirit Sect is he? How can he be compared to our Sect Master of the Glazed Tile Sect?

……

Zhang Lingshan knew nothing about the outside world.

As long as the formation doesn't sound an alarm, it means there's no danger. So whatever happens outside is none of his business and doesn't matter much. There's no need to waste time worrying about it.

At this moment, Zhang Lingshan was completely focused on absorbing the immortal spiritual energy.

Above was a funnel of celestial energy, while Zhang Lingshan was a deep well.

When his deep well is filled with the rain of immortal energy, it signifies that he has reached the perfect state of a Golden Immortal.

'It's been about a month, and my experience points have increased by 4000.'

Zhang Lingshan secretly calculated.

At this rate, the deal should be completed before the end of the month.

Just right.

Yi Fengliu's letter took a month to send and a month to return, the timing was just right, without any delay. I just hope that Yi Fengliu will be efficient; if he sends back a jade talisman for a Celestial Lord position directly, that would be the best, and I could go directly to the Celestial Lord Pavilion to break through.

With that in mind, Zhang Lingshan was not in a hurry, so he calmed down and began to cultivate step by step.

Time flies.

It took more than twenty days.

[The True Scripture of All Laws: Fourth Level, 1 Gutter/1 Gutter. Special Effect: Absorbs the power of all martial arts techniques in the world and can deduce its own variations.]

'I'll hold off on breaking through for now; who knows if there will be a tribulation lightning strike if I try to break through outside?'

Zhang Lingshan pressed down on the panel and then slowly stood up.

The improvement in cultivation made him feel increasingly full, his whole body was full of power, and his immortal spiritual power was almost about to burst out of his body.

A surge of intense urge to break through his limitations immediately gripped Zhang Lingshan's heart.

then.

Without saying a word, he teleported directly to Lingshan Village.

"Yi Fengliu," Zhang Lingshan said, "hasn't the quota for Immortal Lord been filled yet?"

Yi Fengliu looked troubled and knelt down with a thud: "Mountain Lord, spare my life! It's not that I didn't try my best, but my father asked me to go back and ask what I wanted the Immortal Lord quota for, and who wanted the Immortal Lord quota."

Zhang Lingshan was taken aback and said, "You replied so quickly? Shouldn't it have taken a few more days?"

Yi Fengliu said, "The expedited service in the capital is faster than ours; the letter arrives in just half a month."

talking.

He took out a letter with both hands and handed it to Zhang Lingshan, so that Zhang Lingshan could read it himself and prove that he was not lying.

Zhang Lingshan looked at it and said, "Then how do you think we should reply?"

Yi Fengliu hesitated for a moment, then said, "I think that if I want a Celestial Lord position, I have to go back in person. Moreover, my father has emphasized that I should go back. I guess the Celestial Lord position is a minor matter; the main issue is the disappearance of Anning City. Although he didn't mention it, news of Anning City's disappearance should have already reached the capital. He wants to get the details from me, the survivor."

Zhang Lingshan asked, "Then how should you answer when you go back?"

Yi Fengliu said, "I just said that I was saved by a benefactor, who happens to be at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, so I need a Celestial Lord position."

Zhang Lingshan said, "Your benefactor was able to rescue you from disappearing in Anning City, which shows his great ability. Why would he need a Celestial Lord's quota? Your story is full of flaws. Is this the excuse you've come up with over the past few days?"

"Mountain Lord, spare my life! I am foolish and stupid."

Yi Fengliu immediately knelt down.

Zhang Lingshan snorted and ignored him. Instead, he took the teleportation array back to Saint Son Peak and then personally visited the Sect Master Peak to meet Shen Zhixin.

"Grandmother Sect Leader".

After exchanging greetings, Zhang Lingshan got straight to the point: "Following the instructions of the Sect Master, I have already reached the Golden Immortal stage and am now eager to break through to the Immortal Lord stage. Does the Sect Master have any Immortal Lord slots available?"

puff!
Shen Zhixin was drinking tea when she suddenly spat it out, staring at Zhang Lingshan in astonishment. "What did you say?" she asked.

The immortal sense quickly swept over Zhang Lingshan, and Shen Zhixin's expression froze. After stammering for a while, she said, "This, how did you cultivate so fast? What did you eat to grow up like this?"

"This disciple eats spirit rice, but wishes to eat immortal rice. If the sect master does not have a spot for an immortal lord, could you please give me the immortal crystals first?"

Zhang Lingshan's true intentions were revealed at the last moment.

All cultivation is ultimately about planting immortal rice.

Such unwavering commitment demonstrates that one must not forget one's original aspiration in order to achieve one's goal.

"Immortal Crystals, Immortal Crystals, this..."

Shen Zhixin was in a real bind.

She had planned it all out perfectly, intending to use the entire clan's resources to secure a Celestial King title for Ji Buyi.

Once Ji Buyi breaks through to the Immortal King realm, the strength of their Ice Spirit Sect will increase even further.

At this point, it would be relatively easier to find a way to get Zhang Lingshan a Celestial Lord position.

Moreover, the number of Immortal Lords is much simpler than the number of Immortal Kings.

Therefore, as long as Ji Buyi breaks through to the Immortal King level, the Immortal Lord position will be a sure thing, and there will be no surprises.

but.

Shen Zhixin misjudged the speed at which Zhang Lingshan would reach the Golden Immortal Perfection stage.

Only two months have passed, and he has already reached the Golden Immortal Perfection stage. As the sect leader, it wouldn't be right for me not to give him a Celestial Lord title.

But the problem is.

The money for the Immortal King title has already been spent; what's done is done. Are we supposed to ask the high-ranking officials in the imperial court to get the money back?

How about we discuss it and ask them to give us an extra Immortal Lord slot?
That's definitely impossible.

Even securing a Celestial King title is uncertain, let alone receiving one as a freebie.

Shen Zhixin is having a terrible headache right now, and Zhang Lingshan still wants him to use immortal crystals to grow immortal rice.

If she really had immortal crystals, she would have taken them out long ago and sent Zhang Lingshan away.

But there's no problem at all.

She often went to the Inheritance Secret Realm to comprehend the supreme secret techniques. She had explored the entire place. If there were any immortal crystals, she would have dug them out long ago. Why would it be Zhang Lingshan's turn?

He had lied to Zhang Lingshan earlier only to motivate him because the boy wasn't cultivating properly.

Who would have thought that this kid wasn't cultivating properly because his cultivation speed was too fast?

Shen Zhixin was filled with remorse.

Suddenly his face darkened, and he said, "If you had told me earlier that your cultivation speed was so abnormal, I would have gotten you a Celestial Lord spot long ago. That way, Ji Buyi's Celestial King spot could have been delayed. Now that the Celestial King spot hasn't been released yet, we can't ask for another Celestial Lord spot. You... you can only wait a little longer."

Towards the end, even the thick-skinned Shen Zhixin became a little embarrassed, covering her forehead and avoiding looking at Zhang Lingshan.

"hehe."

Zhang Lingshan smiled faintly, unconcerned, and said, "There's a man named Yi Fengliu in Anning City, a member of the Yi family of the imperial city. I rescued him when he disappeared in Anning City. Could we exchange him for a Celestial Lord position with the Yi family?"

Shen Zhixin was taken aback upon hearing this: "A member of the Yi family?"

"good."

Zhang Lingshan said, "The mortal realm I was in before my ascension was the mortal realm of Yi Chen, a member of the Yi family. Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to go to the Yi family, not only for the Immortal Lord position, but also to obtain Yi Chen's mortal realm."

"you!"

Shen Zhixin's expression changed immediately, and she instantly knew what Zhang Lingshan was planning to do.

This guy must have some treasure hidden in that mortal realm, and it must be an extremely powerful treasure, which is why he wants to get his hands on it as soon as possible.

really.

This guy claims to have ascended, but in reality, he used some method to enter the mortal realm, hid his treasures, and then ascended using the mortal realm's ascension formation.

Now that the time has finally come for him to reclaim his treasure, he has come to seek help from the Ice Spirit Sect Master.

But what treasures can be hidden in the mortal realm?

How did he manage to infiltrate an ordinary mortal realm within the Great Qing Dynasty?

Just how many secrets is this kid hiding?

He's truly unfathomable and an enigma.

Whether helping this kid is a blessing or a curse remains to be seen.

Shen Zhixin frowned deeply, her mind in turmoil, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

Granny Qian, who was eavesdropping, was extremely anxious, fearing that Shen Zhixin would not agree to the request from the Sect Master of the Glazed Tile School. She even wanted to rush over and agree on Shen Zhixin's behalf. (End of Chapter)
