< Chapter 84: Oh no, Young Master ng Chong has fainted >
With a low roar, it pressed its hands and feet against the wall, its crimson-gold body ascending like a dragon!
In a few leaps, it reached ng Chong below.
At the mont of exertion, its body suddenly stretched out, like a massive war bow being drawn, exuding the beauty of power.
Its right arm shot out fiercely, obviously with great force, yet it gave a sense of lightness and agility, resembling a white crane spreading its wings.
Then, Dasheng's palm gently descended, his five fingers so dexterous as if they were still alive, resting on ng Chong's puppet head.
A gentle turn, a twist.
When it landed on the ground, its toes touched down first, followed by its arms like a cloak or wings, sliding down along its sides, quickly yet seemingly slow, leaving a brilliant red trail.
The gusts howled, but when it landed, it was almost silent.
In stark contrast was the sound of ng Chong hitting the ground.
With a loud "pa," the sound echoed within the third checkpoint.
Yuan Dasheng let out a light breath, glanced at the head he had removed from ng Chong, then flipped his wrist, his hand opening like flowing water.
ng Chong's head rolled to the ground like a wooden ball, rolling a short distance before coming to a stop.
Despite the limited expressiveness of the puppet's face, one could still discern the look of shock ng Chong had at the mont of his fatal blow.
anwhile, at the City Lord's Mansion.
ng Chong abruptly opened his eyes.
It was as if he had been startled awake from a nightmare, the feeling of death vivid and intensely impacting his soul.
“Whew, whew, whew!” He panted heavily, his body drenched in cold sweat.
If Han Ming saw him, she might not even recognize him. At this mont, ng Chong was gaunt, looking like a patient who had been ill for a long ti, unable to be exposed to sunlight. His once robust physique had beco extrely thin, with prominent cheekbones and sunken eye sockets.
Originally, his gaze was so bright it was intimidating. But now, his eyes were incredibly dull.
“Strong, this chanical ape is so strong!”
“But I won’t lose.”
“As long as I undergo special training, I will definitely make a coback, defeat it, and then successfully pass this stage!”
ng Chong was heavily defeated but remained undaunted.
However, just as he was about to sit up and get out of bed, this slight movent caused his vision to go black, and he fainted directly.
With a thud, he fell back onto the bed.
The attendants outside the door had heard the commotion and knew that ng Chong had already returned to his body. Upon hearing this sound, they imdiately felt sothing was wrong. They called out anxiously, but received no response from ng Chong.
The two attendants, faces flushed with worry, hastily conferred and finally broke down the door together.
“Young Master ng Chong!”
“This is bad, Young Master ng Chong has fainted!!”
Their cries for help spread, causing chaos to erupt in the back courtyard of the city lord’s mansion, with chickens flying and dogs barking.
In the underground workshop.
Ning Zhuo’s mouth was slightly open, unable to conceal his look of surprise.
This was very different from what he had anticipated.
The surprise was a bit too much.
“The combat power of the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng, is much higher than that of ng Chong.”
“This actual combat test showed that although ng Chong's Immortal Technique, Wild Sprint Thunderclap, had improved, it was still no match for Yuan Dasheng.”
“The turning point was that ng Chong seed to encounter a problem and couldn't use Wild Sprint Thunderclap anymore.”
Ning Zhuo speculated that this was likely due to the soul entering the Immortal Palace.
Without a physical body, many things beca inconvenient.
It was like when Ning Zhuo sensed the Buddha Heart Demon Seal before; he had to use the Life Hanging by a Thread technique to circulate it.
ng Chong’s situation was the sa.
Activating Wild Sprint Thunderclap continuously consud the three treasures: essence, qi, and spirit. This consumption was already intense, and with the transmission through the Life Hanging by a Thread technique, there was significant loss in the process. After reaching the puppet body, ng Chong recklessly used it frequently.
“If he were to confront ng Chong in Huoshi Immortal City, the effect of his Wild Sprint Thunderclap would be better!”
“In contrast, the combat power of the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng, did not differ between inside and outside the Immortal Palace.”
“Dasheng’s close combat abilities were extrely strong; ng Chong couldn’t compare to it in this aspect.”
“Previously, ng Chong could rely on his Immortal Technique to maintain the situation. Once he couldn’t use his Immortal Technique and was engaged in close combat by Yuan Dasheng, he had no chance.”
Summarizing this, Ning Zhuo once again felt a strong sense of relief.
He had analyzed the intelligence before and predicted Yuan Dasheng’s prowess in close combat, thus avoiding a frontal confrontation and not even attempting a surprise or sneak attack.
The facts proved how wise his decision was.
If he had previously used force head-on, he would have been handing himself over to Yuan Dasheng.
Ning Zhuo cald his mind and focused, gradually strengthening his connection with the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng.
A few breaths later, a white circle of light for teleportation appeared out of thin air, gradually expanding in front of Ning Zhuo until it finally released the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng.
The Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng, was shorter than him, but its physique was much more robust and powerful than Ning Zhuo's. Even standing still, its red and gold coloring, combined with its resolute and divine appearance, made Ning Zhuo like it from the bottom of his heart.
The young man rubbed his hands together, his mouth wide open with a smile that ca from the deepest part of his soul.
He reached out and squeezed Dasheng's muscles, feeling a surprising chill. The fur of the chanical Dasheng was very soft, while the exposed golden bones were extrely hard.
This kind of tactile sensation was sothing Ning Zhuo's puppet body did not have.
Ning Zhuo examined it and found so new scars on the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng.
These were left by ng Chong.
“The Lava Immortal Palace provides these chanical creations for Foundation Establishnt stage disciples, but the materials used are not of high grade.”
“The three sect elders likely intended to give each trial disciple a relatively refined practice chanism.”
If the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit heard this analysis, it would surely be furious.
What did he an by "relatively refined"?
Was this even human language?
The Lava Immortal Palace consud an entire gold furnace for this! The materials selected were also at the extre limit specified by the trial's requirents.
There was nothing better than the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng! Even the suspended coffins could not compare to Dasheng.
To put it into perspective, the normal standard was wooden swords and knives, while Ning Zhuo's chanical Dasheng was like a bronze weapon!
Ning Zhuo attempted to repair the chanical Dasheng.
There were many fine cracks on the body constructed of Vermilion Fire Glaze.
If one looked closely at this body, they would find it faintly transparent.
The information conveyed by the Lava Immortal Palace, though lacking chanical blueprints, ntioned that the body structure was made of Zhu Yan Stones.
Mount Huoshi had an abundance of Zhu Yan Stones.
Ning Zhuo's material warehouse contained a considerable stockpile of these stones. He imdiately took so out and baked them, producing a bright red fluid that was transparent and luminous.
He infused this fluid into the cracks, quickly repairing them until they were as good as new.
Ning Zhuo then studied the monkey fur, revealing a troubled expression.
He couldn't figure out how the monkey fur was made.
So, he decided to use his own thod to create so monkey fur for Dasheng, planting it in the exposed areas of the body.
On the surface, it at least matched the large areas of the original monkey fur. But Ning Zhuo knew that the defensive performance had decreased significantly.
After finishing the repairs, Ning Zhuo began to clean Dasheng's entire body.
Finally, he took out a handkerchief, occasionally exhaling warm breath onto it, and polished the golden bones of the Golden Blood Battle Ape, Dasheng, until they were gleaming without a speck of dust. Only then was he satisfied.
Just as he was about to study the chanical Dasheng further, soone ca to deliver a ssage.
After the ssenger left, Ning Zhuo opened the letter and browsed through it, raising his eyebrows slightly.
The letter inford him that he was to go to the Zhou family the next day to assess his progress in cultivation techniques and to use the Zhou family's formations to aid his practice.
"So, the Ning family and the Zhou family have ford an alliance?"
"Hmm… in that case, the Zheng family is probably involved as well."
"The three families are united, what about the City Lord's Mansion?"
Ning Zhuo was not surprised; this shift in the situation was within his expectations.
What made him ponder deeply was the image he should present to the three major families.
After contemplating for a short while, Ning Zhuo made up his mind: "It's ti to showcase so of my chanical talents and make a splash."
