Chapter 156 Pang Bo's Path: Savagery and Ghosts (4k)

After passing through the space tunnel, Sha Xiao quickly returned to the base with Pang Bo, Liu Yiyi, and Xiao Qing, who was in a deep slumber and undergoing transformation.

The space tunnel opened, and they appeared in the city lord's mansion of Thunder City, the former capital of the Yan Kingdom.

"Your Holiness?"

As soon as Sha Xiao stepped out, she heard a reverent voice exclaim her name.

"Nangong Zheng? You didn't leave?"

Sha Xiao looked at Nangong Zheng, who had relaxed and whose eyes were filled with joy and excitement, with some surprise.

How did he end up here?

This powerful being who aspired to become an immortal in one lifetime, actually didn't try to break into the Bronze Immortal Palace?

"Ahem, Senior Nangong has helped us a lot these past few years."

"Without his help, many of us wouldn't be able to come together, nor would we have the opportunity to grow."

Pang Bo coughed as he spoke to Sha Xiao.

"After meeting you, Holy Son, I finally understood the path I was pursuing. I think my path to immortality lies here, on the path you have opened up."

Nangong Zheng spoke respectfully to Sha Xiao, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Who? Who's back? Oh my god! Sha Xiao!"

Suddenly, Cade, dressed in a Greek-style white robe and radiating a soft light, looking like an angel, strode in.

He spotted Sha Xiao at a glance and immediately started gesturing and shouting excitedly.

If this gesture were seen by the mortals who believe in him under other major religions in the Eastern Wilderness, they would probably fabricate many rumors.

"Sha Xiao!? They really found you?"

As Li Xiaoman rushed in, she immediately spotted Sha Xiao and the two women he was helping, Liu Yiyi and Pang Bo.

Her icy expression briefly cracked, only to freeze back into itself.

"How is Ye Fan? What happened between Pang Bo and Liu Yiyi?"

Li Xiaoman quickly calmed down from the joy of Sha Xiao's return. While helping Liu Yiyi walk away, she asked for the most crucial information.

"Ye Zi went to loot the spoils."

Pang Bo said with a grin.

"Spoils of war?"

"So there's an enemy? Is it the Yao Guang Holy Land? Or someone from the Ji family?"

Li Xiaoman asked a barrage of questions.

"Yes, you all have them, but you don't need to worry anymore. From now on, the Ji family and we will no longer be enemies. As for the Yao Guang Holy Land..."

""

Sha Xiao smiled gently: "The Yao Guang Holy Land will no longer exist in this world."

"boom"

Sha Xiao's casual remark caused a huge uproar in the hearts of Li Xiaoman and Nangong Zheng.

gurgling...

The two of them gasped simultaneously and swallowed hard.

"Previously, a violent tremor and oppressive force emanated from the Yao Guang Holy Land. Was that your doing?"

Li Xiaoman stared intently at Sha Xiao and asked with certainty.

"Um.

""

Sha Xiao gave a soft snort, acknowledging the matter.

Nangong Zheng looked at Sha Xiao with increasing reverence.

Indeed, staying behind to help Ye Fan and the others was the right decision.

In just a few years, Sha Xiao has grown to such a level?

Li Xiaoman quickly composed herself and looked at Sha Xiao, asking, "Is Pang Bo and the others experiencing a flare-up of the aftereffects? Sha Xiao, do you have a solution?"

Sha Xiao glanced at Li Xiaoman in surprise. Did this mean that Li Xiaoman had already realized that Pang Bo and Liu Yiyi had encountered problems on their cultivation paths?

He didn't pursue the matter further, nodded, and looked at Pang Bo and Liu Yiyi, saying, "Your problem isn't that difficult. If you want to solve it, I can refine a few Gu worms right now and get it done for you immediately."

.

"But I have to tell you, although your current situation is dangerous, it also holds tremendous opportunities, perhaps even the chance to catch up with me."

Upon hearing this, Pang Bo's eyes lit up immediately, and he said boldly, "Of course! Fortune favors the bold, I'd definitely choose opportunity!"

Liu Yiyi nodded stiffly as well.

Pang Bo chuckled, spread his chicken claws out, and looked at Sha Xiao shamelessly, saying, "You can't just stand by and watch something happen to us, can you?"

Sha Xiao looked at Pang Bo, who was posing like this, shook her head and smiled: "The packaged one."

After saying that, he looked at Pang Bo and said, "Pang Bo, your problem is that there are too many Dao traces belonging to other people in your body, and you can't digest them."

"It is neither possible to transform the myriad paths with one's own Dao, nor to suppress the myriad paths through the Dao of the divine soul."

He saw it very clearly: Pang Bo's transformation and Dao traces were all achieved through the consumption of the Immortal Gu for nourishment.

Doing this would make the Dao Traces grow faster and the realm wouldn't be slow, but Pang Bo's other physical attributes wouldn't be able to keep up and he wouldn't be able to sustain it.

The Savage Demon Lord and Pang Bo are on two different paths.

The Dao traces of the Mad Demon Lord's transformations are all the purest Dao of transformation.

His transformations primarily used the different Dao traces on the totem as a starting point, employing his numerous transformations to forcibly simulate the Dao traces of other beings.

Moreover, he mainly possessed enough power and Dao traces to forcibly subdue those wild heretics, suppress his own mind, and ensure that he remained true to himself.

The path of madness leads to the ultimate state where one can change however one pleases, alter whatever parts one desires, and freely combine elements at will.

Pang Bo's path was actually the same path that the Ghost Demon Lord had wanted to take but failed to complete.

By continuously absorbing external teachings, one forcefully increases their own Dao traces.

In terms of the precision of its transformations, it is indeed more accurate than the transformations of the Mad Demon Lord.

After all, you've made a 1:1 replica; who can compare to you?

However, the side effects are also obvious, and the complexity of the changes is definitely not comparable to that of the Savage Demon Lord.

The Savage Demon Lord can easily combine the strengths of countless wild beasts to create a new, even stronger wild beast.

Even a Venerable One can evolve into myriad paths in one go, so theoretically, the Ghostly Demon Lord could also do this if he cultivated to his limit.

The ghost used the Soul Path to suppress the external Dao traces, seemingly achieving a level comparable to the Mad Demon Lord, truly deserving of the title of Grandmaster of all schools.

However, this path is always flawed, and it is completely inferior to the Savage Demon Lord in comparison.

To put it simply, the pressure on this path will be countless times greater than that of the Savage Demon Lord.

Following the path of the Ghostly Demon Lord, if Pang Bo wanted to use the Dao traces of two different demonic beasts simultaneously, he could only stack one Dao trace after another on his body and use them at the same time.

The resulting pressure will increase exponentially.

This path is only theoretically feasible; it is impossible to achieve unless one can bring all the Dao traces in the world under one's control.

Moreover, even if it were achieved, without sufficient power to unify these chaotic Dao traces, one's true self would be lost in these mixed Dao traces, turning into a mindless chaotic monster.

That's right, different paths lead to the same destination; the chaotic monster from the underworld was a fellow traveler on this path.

"So what should I do? Try to digest these Dao traces? Sever them? Or should I train my divine sense?"

Pang Bo ignored his own thoughts and looked at Sha Xiao expectantly like a child, waiting for an answer.

Looking at the Dao traces emerging from the feathers on Pang Bo's body, Sha Xiao sighed in surprise, "Since you want to catch up with me, it's impossible to cut off the Dao traces and start over."

"Divine sense is the most mysterious thing, and training divine sense is unreliable. The only way is to digest it."

"You're really lucky, you're just a fool. When luck comes, you can't stop it."

"If you wanted to digest these Dao traces before, you would have needed to remain in this state for at least a hundred years to have any chance of doing so."

"But now, if everything goes smoothly, you can do it in just two and a half years of practice."

Pang Bo was breathing rapidly, his chicken claws rubbing together excitedly: "Tell me, tell me, stop keeping me in suspense."

Sha Xiao smiled, but instead of answering directly, she asked Liu Yiyi, "Yiyi, do you remember what happened when Pang Bo led you through the spatial turbulence?"

"Given Pang Bo's condition, there's absolutely no way he could have led you through the spatial turbulence."

Liu Yiyi blinked, thought carefully for a while, and said, "The Dao marks on his body changed dramatically at that time, and more than a dozen kinds of flying birds were superimposed at the same time. I don't know which one it was that ultimately allowed us to break through the spatial turbulence."

Pang Bo waved his hand dismissively: "Is that even a question? It must have been the Sky-Splitting Sparrow that did the trick."

"Of all the demonic beasts I possess, only this one can easily traverse space."

Sha Xiao shook her head, looking at Liu Yiyi and Pang Bo with certainty, "No, it's definitely not some Sky-Splitting Sparrow. There must be other strange phenomena. Think carefully."

Pangbo preened the feathers on his arm with his beak, curled up into a ball, and muttered, "How could there be others? If there were, why didn't I notice them?"

"I was completely exhausted at that time; I had almost drained myself dry."

Just as Liu Yiyi was at her wit's end, she looked at Pang Bo's posture and her eyes suddenly lit up: "That's it! At that time, Pang Bo curled up into a ball and crashed into the spatial turbulence in order to protect Tingting."

"Then, somehow, those spatial turbulences just slid past us, like..."

""

Sha Xiao took a deep breath: "It's like swimming in space like a fish."

Liu Yiyi blinked repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's it. I remember now, I vaguely saw the phantom of a fish enveloping us."

"Hiss!"

Li Xiaoman seemed to understand something, took a deep breath, and looked at Sha Xiao with a questioning gaze: "Is it that one? Kunpeng?"

Sha Xiao nodded: "Yes, it's that Kunpeng."

"Huh? Kunpeng? How could this be? I've never seen a similar demonic beast before, how could it bear the Dao traces of Kunpeng?"

Pang Bo scratched his head with his chicken claws, looking completely puzzled.

"Pang Bo, tell me what kind of Gu worms were in your acupoints back then, and how you used them yourself. The problem must lie here."

Sha Xiao tapped the table and looked at Pang Bo.

"Uh, let me think... Five-Transformation Transformation Gu, Five-Transformation Soaring Roc Gu, Five-Transformation Ten Thousand Mile Golden Light Gu, Five-Transformation Metamorphosis Gu, Five-Transformation Blood Source Gu, Five-Transformation Ancestral Return Gu, Six-Transformation Nourishing Immortal Gu..."

""

Pang Boli rattled off more than 160 kinds of Gu worms.

Upon hearing this, Sha Xiao helplessly covered her face.

Good grief, I must have led him astray.

Normal Gu masters wouldn't have so many Gu worms; they simply can't cultivate the habit of combining multiple Gu worms to create such deadly moves.

"You've rebuilt Qingmao Mountain?"

Sha Xiao looked at Pang Bo with certainty.

"Yes, we successfully built it in the Northern Region, but we just couldn't get the Blood Lake to work. As a result, Green Mao Mountain is a bit smaller than before."

Pang Bo looked at Sha Xiao strangely, wondering why he was asking this.

Sha Xiao curled her lips. Blood Lake had become a separate secret realm. Yao Guang Holy Land had been having a great time with Blood Lake back then, so it would be strange if it could be replicated.

"It's nothing..."

'

Sha Xiao waved her hand, skipping over the topic, and continued to analyze for Pang Bo: "I know what's wrong with you, it's a problem with the Fifth-Rank Ancestral Gu."

"Were you simultaneously wielding the Azure Sky Roc, Golden-Winged Roc, Sky-Splitting Sparrow, Sky-Swallowing Sparrow, Nine-Nether Sparrow, and Lightning Bird at that time?"

Pang Bo recalled for a moment and said in surprise, "It really is! How did you guess that?"

Sha Xiao pursed his lips and continued, "It's them. You must have activated the Ancestral Gu at the same time by activating these bloodlines, and then, with a bit of luck and external pressure, you reverted to the Kunpeng."

Sha Xiao glanced at Pang Bo Ku Hai discreetly and suppressed her other guess.

If he wasn't mistaken, Pang Boneng's success at that time was definitely related to the fact that he was almost drained dry by the sea of ​​suffering.

Even if an ordinary person tries their hardest, they can't possibly drain the sea of ​​suffering dry, because if the sea of ​​suffering is drained, that person will soon die.

Pang Bo was able to vaguely touch upon a corner of the fundamental Kunpeng Technique, the great law that the Desolate Heavenly Emperor used when he opened the Sea of ​​Bitterness, because he still had true essence to replenish. He was in a state between life and death, relying on his bloodline and the Great Dao.

This is a rare and wonderful opportunity!

The Kunpeng Dao on Pang Bo's body is like the Heavenly Horn Extreme Immortal Gu, which comes from the Ten Fiends of the Chaotic Ancient Era and from the real Kunpeng!

It's different from the far-fetched connection made later in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

It's worth noting that in some places, both the Golden-Winged Roc and the Azure Roc have been referred to as the Kunpeng.

But that's completely different.

The true Kunpeng Technique is the fastest speed in the world, faster than time itself; traversing space with the physical body is nothing more than a trivial matter.

"The opportunity you've encountered this time is extraordinary. If you can stabilize this Kunpeng Dao Mark, you might actually be able to catch up with me."

Sha Xiao earnestly tried to persuade Pang Bo.

This wasn't the path he had originally planned for Pang Bo, but since the opportunity had come, how could he not take it?

Is it really that special?

Pang Bo touched the feathers on his body, feeling both apprehensive and excited.

"Ha, ask Nangong Zheng, in the entire history of the Big Dipper, has there ever been a true record of a Kunpeng?"

Sha Xiao crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow at Nangong Zheng.

"No, what the Holy Son said is correct. Although many people claim to be Kunpeng, none of them have clearly been identified as having Kunpeng bloodline."

"People speculate that the Kunpeng is probably a celestial being that only exists in the Immortal Realm, and that it has the same peerless bloodline as the Immortal Phoenix and the True Dragon."

Nangong Zheng said with a serious expression.

"That's it. You're lucky, kid. You got a piece of Kunpeng Dao trace. As long as you can refine it into a Gu and stabilize it, you can use the power to evolve your blood and truly become the legendary Kunpeng."

Sha Xiao patted Pang Bo on the shoulder and described a beautiful blueprint.

"And what will be the price, Gul'dan?"

Pang Bo raised his head and said in a low voice.

Caesar's eyes lit up, and with a "whoosh," he illuminated the room with a layer of green light, making Pombo's face look green like an orc.

"All of this."

Sha Xiao pointed to all the bird-man features on Pang Bo's body and said in a sinister tone.

"These guys are really..."

"7

Li Xiaoman rolled her eyes and helplessly started gossiping with Liu Yiyi, complaining about the boys who started playing around as soon as they relaxed.

"Hehe, isn't that good? The fact that Sha Xiao is in the mood to play actually means that I'm not in any serious condition."

Liu Yiyi didn't mind at all, and happily watched Sha Xiao play a role-playing game.

The entire hall was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Nangong Zheng was left alone, looking blankly at the three boys who had suddenly gone mad.

A song seemed to play in my mind: I should be under the car, not here...
