Seeking the Way of Immortality

From the memory of the Snow Wolf King, Wu Zheng learned that this assassination was related to Bei Ming Xuan. The halberd of the Snow Wolf King was called the ‘Ice Halberd’, which was the price Bei Ming Xuan paid for the Snow Wolf King to take action.

However, the ‘Ice Halberd’ has now become Wu Zheng’s thing. It just so happens that he doesn’t have a magic weapon at hand. Wu Zheng is good at spearmanship. At this time, the Snow Wolf King sent an ancient halberd, which is really a timely help.

Wu Zheng also knew the existence of the Arctic ice field. This time, the Snow Wolf King originally came to assassinate Li Wanzhong with the mentality of winning. He only brought some personal items. Most of the mineral materials he collected were placed in his cave.

Therefore, Wu Zheng gradually had an idea in his mind. Maybe this time he could get rid of Bei Ming Xuan silently, provided that Bei Ming Xuan did not know the news that the Snow Wolf King was killed.

The Lord’s Mansion of Bahuang City.

Wu Zheng found Li Longcheng and said directly: "Grandpa, is there any way to put the Eight Desolate City under house arrest tonight, and only allow entry but not exit."

"Well, Wu Zheng, what are you doing?" Li Longcheng said in confusion.

So Wu Zheng said his thoughts.

"Okay, don't worry about this, no one can send the message tonight." Li Longcheng's brows relaxed and said happily.

"Grandpa, are you prepared for it?" Wu Zheng asked in confusion.

"Hehe, just as you said, it's not that the time has not come yet." Li Longcheng smiled.

It turned out that after the Li Chengfeng incident 20 years ago, Li Longcheng stipulated that no one could step out of the Eight Desolate City after dark, otherwise it would be considered as rebellion.

And this rule of Li Longcheng has continued until now after he single-handedly killed the Beiming Sect. Unexpectedly, Wu Zheng happened to use it tonight.

It was also Beiming Xuan's calamity. He did not tell anyone about asking the Ice and Snow Wolf King to take action, and his subordinates who stayed in the Eight Desolate City did not know about it.

Therefore, the news that the Wolf King died in the Eight Wasteland City would definitely be spread to the Beiming Sect, but definitely not tonight. Moreover, the date agreed by Beiming Xuan and the Ice and Snow Wolf King was December 14th. Given Beiming Xuan's personality, he would definitely go to the Arctic Ice Field on December 15th.

And December 15th was the day when the old and new Bahuang City took over.

That night, Wu Zheng returned to the Wanfang Baji Palace and told the situation, and immediately went to the Arctic Ice Field. Originally, Yin Mengyao asked to go together, but later Wu Zheng kept her on the grounds of protecting the Eight Wasteland City.

The Arctic Ice Field is located in the northernmost part of the Northern Territory and is one of the major features of the Northern Territory. The temperature here is extremely low, and even Jindan-stage cultivators cannot stay here for a long time. However, there are countless natural treasures and powerful monsters here. The Ice and Snow Wolf King is just one of them.

What Wu Zheng didn't know was that Beiming Xuan actually had a purpose for finding the Ice and Snow Wolf King. Beiming Xuan wanted to subdue the Ice and Snow Wolf King and make him his spiritual pet.

Moreover, Bei Mingxuan did not have any good intentions. The ‘Ice Halberd’ he sent out contained a cold energy, which ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators could not detect at all. Only cultivators who were very familiar with this energy could find the clues.

The cold energy could only be triggered by Bei Mingxuan through the ‘Xuanling Mirror’, and he sent the ‘Ice Halberd’ to the Ice Wolf King, asking the Ice Wolf King to kill Li Wanzhong in exchange for it. The Ice Wolf King also knew something about the situation in the Eight Desolate City, which was very dangerous, so it was reasonable to ask him to take action.

Therefore, the Ice Wolf King would definitely ask for the ‘Ice Halberd’ first, so that the Ice Wolf King would refine it as quickly as possible to increase its combat effectiveness.

After the Ice Wolf King killed Li Wanzhong, Li Longcheng would definitely fight with the Ice Wolf King desperately. Li Longcheng would definitely not be the opponent of the Ice Wolf King, but if Li Longcheng fought desperately, the Ice Wolf King would definitely be injured. Then, after being injured, the Ice Wolf King would definitely return to his own cave in the Arctic ice field to heal his wounds.

At this time, Bei Mingxuan took the opportunity to attack, using the ‘Ice Halberd’ as a guide, and silently injected the Yin-cold attribute energy into the body of the Ice Wolf King through the ‘Xuanling Mirror’, destroying the true essence of the Ice Wolf King, and then controlling it.

Everything was calculated clearly by Bei Mingxuan, and the only thing he missed was Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng sensed the Yin-cold attribute energy almost the moment he touched the ‘Ice Halberd’, because he was too familiar with this Yin-cold energy, and there was this Yin-cold attribute energy in his body. Combined with the memory of the wolf king, Wu Zheng easily guessed Bei Mingxuan’s intention.

Killing two birds with one stone.

This is also the reason why Wu Zheng was sure that Bei Mingxuan would go to the Arctic Ice Field on December 15.

Perhaps he could meet Bei Mingxuan there, and a battle was inevitable, so Wu Zheng did not bring Yin Mengyao with him, as he did not want her to be in danger.

Arctic Ice Field, Ice and Snow Wolf King Palace.

"Has the Wolf King not come back yet?" Bei Mingxuan asked.

"To answer your question, the Wolf King has not come back, but I think he will be back soon." A female cultivator in the Jindan stage said.

"Well, you guys go down! I am waiting for the Wolf King here." Bei Mingxuan waved his hand and said.

"Yes, senior." The female cultivator said, and retreated respectfully, leaving Bei Mingxuan alone in the hall.

Bei Mingxuan tapped his fingers, and several magic array stones with runes were hit into the ice, and a hazy light floated up. Bei Mingxuan shook his hand, and the traces of the array disappeared, as if the hazy light had never existed.

He wanted to ambush the Snow Wolf King here. The formation he had just set up was called the "Ten Directions Demon Slaying Formation". Once you enter this formation, there is no way to go up to the sky or down to the earth. The only way to survive is to kill the person who set up the formation, or your own magic power is several times higher than the power of the formation, otherwise you can only die in it.

Of course, if there is a formation master here, it will be another matter. After all, there is no perfect formation in the world. As long as it is a formation, there is a way to break it.

After the formation was arranged, Bei Mingxuan sat on a cushion and practiced.

Wu Bingyue did not refine the Snow Wolf King's Nascent Soul immediately. She knew that Wu Zheng had the next step. Now is not the time to refine the Nascent Soul. Everything will take time after this matter.

Wu Zheng used the newly learned "Earth Walking Technique" along the way. The speed was very fast, not much worse than "Wind Flash", and the "Earth Walking Technique" consumed very little true essence, which was perfect for this time.

The Earth Walking Art is divided into three stages, namely, controlling the earth like the wind, controlling the earth into air, and turning the body into earth. Controlling the earth into wind is the first stage. As the name suggests, it means that the Earth Walking Art can be comparable to the speed of wind; controlling the earth into air is the second stage. In this stage, you can be as free and easy in the earth as in the air, and you can completely ignore the existence of the earth; turning the body into earth is the third stage, which is also the highest realm of the Earth Walking Art. This is the embodiment of the highest mystery of the Earth Walking Art and the ultimate of the escape technique. The earth is the body and the body is the earth.

If controlling the earth like the wind and controlling the earth into air are the speed of the earth, then turning the body into earth is the escape technique, which is also the true meaning of the Earth Walking Art.

The first two rely on practice, while the latter relies on enlightenment.

If Wu Zheng can practice the first stage of controlling the earth into air to the stage of great perfection, then it will definitely be much faster than the current stage of "Wind Flash". Of course, Wu Zheng's Wind Flash has not been practiced to the stage of great perfection, otherwise it will definitely be faster than controlling the earth into air.

Wind Flash is a mystery, and it is not achieved overnight.

Wu Zheng has just mastered the "Earth-walking Technique" to the entry level, and is far from completing the first stage. This is why Wu Zheng must use the "Earth-walking Technique" whenever he is on the road. Only by constantly using it can he complete the first stage faster.

Of course, for Wu Zheng, there is still a long way to go.

A white fish belly appeared in the eastern sky, and a red sun slowly rose.
