Divine Lord Meng Zhang (33)

"What a fierce battle!"

When Lingguzi saw the chaotic scene at the bottom of the sinkhole, even he couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Fortunately, Lingguzi still remembered his purpose and soon arrived at the source of that strange life force.

It was a black area eroded by lava, a natural obsidian crystal formed from the blood of the Long Jikui.

Compared to the ravaged land, the obsidian crystals were not particularly striking, and even the Six Witches of Kaiming hadn't noticed anything unusual about them.

However, when Lingguzi arrived in this area, he smashed the obsidian crystal with a single punch without hesitation.

Crack...

With a clear cracking sound, a flash of green light disappeared within the obsidian.

"It was right here!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Lingguzi immediately formed hand seals, trapping the green light within the broken obsidian.

Who goes there!?

Realizing that escape was impossible, an angry voice came from the obsidian.

The green light then transformed into an egg-shaped creature.

It has no form, and no mass...

The being trapped inside the obsidian resembled an embryo, with only two faint, eerie green eyes visible within.

It is also a state of not being fully developed.

Those eyes couldn't even close, and you could clearly see the deep pupils.

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?"

Gently picking up the broken piece of obsidian, Lingguzi examined the still-developing embryo inside with great curiosity.

"It has no physical form, yet it possesses an inexhaustible source of vitality."

"If I were to use you in medicine, could I create the legendary Elixir of Immortality?"

As he murmured these words, Lingguzi successfully elicited a look of terror from the embryo.

No, you can't do that!

"I am Meng Zhang, a divine lord under Yu Guo. Doing this will only bring you great trouble!"

Lingguzi tilted her head slightly and asked thoughtfully.

"Big trouble?"

"I have a feeling you're lying to me."

"After all, judging from your current appearance, you don't seem like the kind of person who could cause me any big trouble."

Lingguzi's words successfully instilled even greater fear in Meng Zhang.

Because He then realized that the skeletal figure opposite Him seemed to have no idea who Yu Guo was.

"You came for the Elixir of Immortality, but I can tell you where the real Elixir of Immortality is!"

"If you kill me, you will never obtain the true Elixir of Immortality!"

Meng Zhang screamed in terror, his words revealing his undisguised fear of death.

As expected, Lingguzi was immediately drawn to Meng Zhang's words.

"The real Elixir of Immortality?"

Under the command of Yu Guo, the God of the East Sea, there are four divine lords.

They are all true Heavenly Deity, ancient monsters who have lived for countless years.

However, after "Wu Yi Shoots at Heaven," these old monsters became the first to suffer.

Among them, Meng Zhang was relatively lucky, as he escaped the first wave of calamity due to the special nature of his body.

But you can dodge the first day of the month, but you can't dodge the fifteenth.

When Wu Yi's Primordial Spirit Manifestation and descended upon the East Sea, Meng Zhang unsurprisingly became the target.

The only saving grace was that Meng Zhang, relying on his powerful immortality, managed to survive until the very end and witnessed firsthand the entire process of Wu Yi being betrayed by the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Then, Meng Zhang was tricked by the Six Witches of Kaiming who had been secretly lurking on the outermost edge of the battlefield.

It turned out that the six enlightened shamans had secretly taken away one of the nine great cauldrons of the Great Xia Dynasty, the [Undying Cauldron], while the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty were away.

They wanted to use the [Immortality Cauldron] to refine a true Elixir of Immortality, hoping to resurrect the already dead Wu Yi.

After all, although Wu Yi's Primordial Spirit had dissipated, his physical body was still in Li Boyang's hands.

The Six Witches of Kaiming intended to recreate an immortal legend by imitating the resurrection process of the Divine Witch Wu Xian.

Therefore, the Six Witches of Kaiming needed various test subjects to verify the method of refining the Elixir of Immortality.

If we say that the Long Jikui possesses the most powerful physical body...

So, Meng Zhang, drawn by that immense vitality and residing within it like Lady Bagui, is an immortal soul...

The combination of these two factors ultimately gave birth to that "living corpse," as unresponsive and unaware as an active volcano.

It's not surprising that even Lady Bagui was able to find that "living corpse" and be reborn through it.

However, after practicing the "Breathing Method," Lady Bagui's vitality far exceeded the expectations of the Six Witches of Kaiming.

Most importantly, Lady Bagui by nature cautious and suspicious.

Upon realizing the danger, she immediately severed her roots and transformed into a human form to escape.

Throughout the entire process, the Six Witches of Kaiming were completely unaware that Lady Bagui had already escaped.

Then came the series of actions by Long Jikui, who relentlessly pursued Lady Bagui, hoping to use him to complete his own destiny.

Perhaps it was the Long Jikui's zombie-like behavior that was so deceptive...

Or perhaps it's simply due to confidence in one's own abilities and methods...

The Six Witches of Kaiming not only failed to notice that Lady Bagui had escaped, but they were also unaware that Meng Zhang, one of the subjects of their research, was still alive.

No, it's not just about being alive...

During the process of the Six Witches of Kaiming refining the "Elixir of Immortality," Meng Zhang also transformed into an extremely bizarre state.

Compared to Long Jikui, Meng Zhang, though lacking an immortal physical body, possessed a truly indestructible divine soul.

When Jinjiao used the golden gourd to absorb the Long Jikui.

Meng Zhang seized the opportunity to hide inside the obsidian, thus escaping the fate of being absorbed by the golden gourd along with Long Jikui.

"So, the real Elixir of Immortality has fallen into Jinjiao's hands?"

When Lingguzi calmly uttered the name "Jinjiao".

Meng Zhang, who was sealed in obsidian, suddenly looked up, and his still-developing pupils widened instantly.

He never expected that the skeleton in front of him would actually recognize the Golden Boy.

Boom!

Realizing something was wrong, Meng Zhang didn't care about anything else.

He immediately broke through the seal, attempting to escape Lingguzi's control.

"If it were you during your lifetime, or after you had truly taken shape, I might feel a sense of awe."

A sinister smile appeared on the skull's face.

Suddenly, Lingguzi snapped off a piece of his finger bone and threw it at Meng Zhang, who was trying to escape.

"Now you can't escape my grasp!"

With a soft murmur from Lingguzi, Meng Zhang's invisible body was instantly sucked into his finger bones.

"If I were to hand you over to the prophet, I wonder if he would even let me see the real Elixir of Immortality."

"No, actually you are also part of the Elixir of Immortality..."

"I wonder if, with the prophet's abilities, he could concoct a complete Elixir of Immortality."

The words from Lingguzi, brimming with anticipation, made Meng Zhang tremble uncontrollably, yet he could only watch helplessly and desperately as everything unfolded.
