This time, when Zhang Lisheng's power was at a low ebb, he inexplicably fell into the Four Image Formation set up by the Gate of Dao's elders. However, he was lucky enough to counterattack successfully in a desperate situation. First, it was because the ambushers' assessment of his strength was outdated and wrong. They thought that they had sent out a killing formation, but in fact, they did not have enough power and had used the wrong formation.
Second, the Gate of Dao's people were playing dirty tricks after all. They did not have the advantage of the right time and the right place. Not only that, they were not of one mind and were anxious for success.
Third, the invisible force that the young man used after transforming into the Eye Beast miraculously possessed the characteristic of resisting Dao, allowing him to withstand the long joint attack of the four Taoist priests.
It could be said that if any of these three reasons were not present, the young man would have inevitably turned into ashes and his soul would have scattered. However, with all three of them present, not only did he manage to kill several Gate of Dao's elite disciples after breaking the formation, he even managed to devour the primordial spirits of the two Gate of Dao's elders who had truly cultivated painstakingly.
In fact, even though the negative emotions such as bitterness, anger, regret, and despair produced after the primordial spirit entered the abdomen were considerable, in terms of quantity, it could not be compared to the number of powerful Hellfire tribes that Zhang Lisheng had led the Wizard Li army to cross the sea to fight. After all, no matter how big a tiger was, there were only two of them, so it was only natural that their weight was less than hundreds of thousands of insects.
However, from another perspective, no matter how many insects there were, they were not as nutritious as tiger meat. However, Zhang Lisheng did not notice it as he was busy running for his life. It was only until he, whose body and spirit were in a strange inversely proportional state, stumbled and fell on the ground when he suddenly tripped on the sand dune under his feet. Only then did he notice the abnormality.
"The preservative that I made has already condensed into a semi-solid jelly-like substance in my body, so why is there so much of it seeping out of the wound? Don't tell me that it's dissolved by the Taoist priest's spell …" Climbing up from the ground with great effort, the young man realized that his chest was covered with sand. When he touched his trembling hands, he felt that it was extremely sticky. At once, he looked at the thick layer of oil on his palms and blurted out.
Muttering, he continued to move forward with heavy steps. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and exclaimed, "No, no, this is …" He pressed his hand over his heart and opened his mouth wide with an ecstatic expression on his face. He said incoherently, "It's beating, it's beating. It's really the heart that's starting to produce blood and the preservatives are being pushed out of the blood vessels.
This, this clearly meant that his body had regained its vitality. If this was the case, becoming a Senior Magus was only a matter of time. How could this happen? He had inexplicably crossed the natural chasm of 'resurrection'...
Could it be, could it be, could it be, it must be a blessing in disguise, the result of devouring the Primordial Spirits of those two Taoist priests. Truly worthy of being a Taoist priest, hahaha … "
The young man laughed heartily for a while. After venting out the unbearable joy in his heart, he felt that he was a little carried away. Crouching down, he turned his head to shade his eyes with his hand and looked at the end of the desert in the distance. When he saw that there were no pursuers coming, he breathed a sigh of relief and began to walk slowly on the sand again.
After walking for a few hundred meters, more mucus seeped out of the countless wounds on his body. At the same time, Zhang Lisheng realized that he no longer needed to put his hand on his chest as the gradually vigorous beating of his heart could be clearly seen. By the time the sun set and he saw the huge outline of the New Washington A from afar, his heartbeat had already reached more than 500 beats per minute.
Such a heart speed would have long been fatal to an ordinary person, but to the young man, it only made him slightly flustered.
The feeling of tightness in his chest was a sign that his body was' alive '. Therefore, he did not care about his rapid heartbeat at all. He thought that it was a normal reaction and focused all his attention on how to enter the oasis city.
"I'll definitely be regarded as a monster or a madman if I just walk in like this …" The preservative that had been accumulated in his blood mixed with the sand and stuck to his naked body like a layer of armor after it dried. Zhang Lisheng muttered to himself as he continued to walk towards the city. At the same time, he peeled off the coagulated mud that stuck to his body, revealing his dry skin.
Upon seeing his skinny body, he was taken aback. Puzzled, he peeled off the mud on his body and looked down at his skeleton-like body standing on the sand. After being stunned for a while, he smiled wryly and said, "I knew that I wouldn't be so lucky to become a Senior Wizard so easily …"
As he was speaking, the young man suddenly felt a pain in his chest. Then, an increasingly rapid 'thump thump …' sound resonated in his ears from nowhere.
In just a few seconds, the sound gradually became more and more intense, and the palpitation reached Zhang Lisheng's unbearable limit. Then, it immediately subsided. By the time the young man felt that the tinnitus in his ears had disappeared, he was stunned for a moment. When he hastily placed his palm on his chest, he realized that his heart that was beating like a sports car motor just now had become motionless, as though it was dead.
His heart turned cold. Zhang Lisheng felt as though all the strength in his body had been sucked out. If it was not for the fact that he was extremely excited, he would have slumped onto the ground.
Just as he was gritting his teeth in an inexplicable rage, he suddenly felt an extremely faint heartbeat on his palm.
The anger dissipated right away. The young man's eyes widened as he pressed his palm on his chest even harder. It was only until another faint heartbeat resonated that his stiff body finally relaxed.
The situation was not as good as he had initially expected, but it was not as if he had gained nothing. He calmed down and pondered about it before cautiously drilling into the sand and pondering silently in the dark. After a long time, he finally sorted out his thoughts and figured out the cause of the matter.
According to Zhang Lisheng's inference, the reason his heart began to beat in the beginning was because the two Gate of Dao's venerable's primordial spirits that he had swallowed had stimulated the vitality of his' dead 'body when they were being digested.
After that, as the resistance of the primordial spirit gradually weakened, the speed of his' digestion 'gradually accelerated. Every organ in his body, especially the heart that was the most important of the five internal organs, began to show signs of life that became more and more intense, so much so that it exceeded the normal level.
This kind of abnormality came from the digestion of the Gate of Dao's elder's primordial spirit, so of course, it could not last long. By the time the soul was completely absorbed, it would immediately return to its original form, with only less than 1% of the recovered vitality remaining.
Initially, he thought that he had harvested a strong eagle, but in the end, he only obtained a skinny sparrow. After he understood all of this, the huge gap made the young man a little disappointed. However, even though he was depressed, he knew that even though the difference between one and 100 was a hundred times, the difference between zero and 100 was countless times.
What he had obtained seemed insignificant, but in fact, it was a fundamental change. No matter what, he had truly crossed the natural chasm of 'resurrection.'
"The expansion of the Wizard Li tribe is already right in front of me. As long as it's not 'from nothing to something,' the rest is nothing more than a painstaking effort …" Climbing out of the yellow sand, Zhang Lisheng comforted himself and no longer thought about the gains and losses.
At this time, the sky had already turned completely dark. A cold wind began to blow in the desert that was originally hot. Sensing that there was a trace of moisture in the wind that passed through the oasis, a smile crept upon the corner of the young man's mouth as he muttered, "Maybe I don't have to walk anymore. I hope I can succeed." Then, he stretched his body and let himself be exposed to the cold wind as much as possible.
With an ear-piercing 'woo woo …' sound, the strong wind that rolled up countless yellow sand passed by Zhang Lisheng and continued to roar forward. The only difference was that there were many tiny moist sand masses in the wind.
Those sand masses fluttered lightly in the air. As the humidity became heavier, more and more grains of sand stuck to them. In the end, they could no longer be driven by the cold wind and fell onto the sand.
After that, they rolled strangely under the moonlight and condensed together to form a pile of wet sand. Then, thick limbs and a head that only had eyes and ears grew out of it.
After the 'sandman' was born, it stood still on the spot in a daze, like a statue. It was only until the young man whispered, "Come here." Only then did it tremble agilely and dashed towards Zhang Lisheng from afar.
Under the moonlight that was emitting a faint light, the sandman's body that was made of moist sand looked extremely fragile and could not be commanded by faith. It looked more useless than any of the poisonous insects that Zhang Lisheng had refined before.
However, in fact, the wizard gu that had its life taken away by the young man and only had its instinctive power amplified infinitely could not be mentioned in the same breath as the sandman that was given a short lifespan.
Taking away the life of a living creature only required a dagger, but giving life to an inanimate object, even if it was a life that had almost no wisdom and could only understand the simplest orders, the level of power involved had already reached the level of a god's secret.
However, just like how a national player who was deeply immersed in a chess game was sometimes not as clear-headed as an ordinary person watching from the sidelines, Zhang Lisheng did not realize that he had just displayed the power of a god for the first time in the foreign world.
Looking at the wet sand creation that was shorter than him but several times thicker, he suddenly had a feeling in his heart. With a philosophical tone, he said, "I actually succeeded!
From the time I felt the trace of water vapor wrapped in the wind to the time I created a sandman, it only took me more than ten seconds. However, if I didn't have that little bit of water vapor, I wouldn't have been able to create a sandman even after 10,000 years. Actually, this is the difference between one and zero. "Then, he pointed at the brightly lit city in the distance." Kneel down first, then stand up and walk towards the light. "
As the young man was speaking, he sat on the broad shoulder of the sandman kneeling on the ground and raised his feet. At the next moment, as though the sandman could feel the weight on its shoulder, it stood up steadily and strode towards the New Washington A.
Even though its legs were short, the pace of the tireless divine power creation was very fast. After more than ten minutes, it brought its creator to the edge of the oasis city.
When the young man saw that the bright street lights were already within reach, he commanded the sandman to stop. According to the plan that he had long thought of, he gestured with both of his hands in the air and reshaped his short and strong creation into the outline of an ordinary human.
"This should be more or less enough." After completing his work, Zhang Lisheng took a few steps back and narrowed his eyes to look. When he saw that the sandman could already barely confuse the others in the dark, he said, "Slow down and walk forward." Then, he followed his creation and walked onto the cold concrete road of the city.
