I use deceit to create immortality

Chapter 61 Millennium Ginseng
"Do you have a solution?"

Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Heh." Wang Mang smiled confidently, "I slept in the Lin Mansion for so many days. It was not in vain. I have some understanding of the situation there."

He paused and said, "However, there is a ghost flag in the Lin Mansion. That thing is not a good thing. Even if we get it, we may not be able to use it."

"Why?" Jiang Ning asked with confusion on his face.

After all, Wang Mang came from the Wushen Tao official. Even if it was just from the files and the dictation of his colleagues, he knew much more than ordinary people. He slowly explained:
"The ghost flag is a thing that nourishes yin and gathers evil spirits. According to legend, it is a method of refining living beings passed down from the blood sacrifice lineage."

"When enough essence and blood of the dead are gathered together, this extremely dark ghost banner will even be counterattacked by the group of evil heretics, let alone the ability to control the ghost banner with orthodox source techniques."

"Take our Wushen Dao refining essence and nourishing energy as an example. To activate the exercises, all the energy and blood in the body are used. But for Oni Ban, it happens to be a great tonic, and it is sucked in before the exercises can be started. Let alone control the ghost flag, if you don’t get swallowed by it, it will be a blessing in misfortune.”

Jiang Ning could only nod and admit.

However, he then thought about it and realized that he was practicing the trick of immortality...

Wang Mang can't use it, but that doesn't mean he can't use it!

It's just that the evil spirit of the ghost flag is too strong. Judging from the scene in the dream, it is such a treacherous magic weapon that was filled out from the mass graves of the barbarians. Even the Southern Kingdom at that time had difficulty in controlling it, and it caused harm to the army. A backlash event is definitely not possible at my current level.

However, if the [physical body] breaks through into the [yin body], then things may turn around.

Xiaoxiao killed everyone last night. The dark veins all over his body were full of extreme oppression, but at the same time, they gave Jiang Ning a sense of familiarity.

Maybe... I can use similar abilities after breaking through the second level?
Then maybe you can control Onibata.

"correct."

Jiang Ning glanced at the ginseng soup on the table and said, "This bowl of medicine was prepared by Mr. Li for us. It is very beneficial to our bodies. I have already drank it and there is no problem."

Only then did Wang Mang notice that there was a bowl of ginseng soup on the table. He picked it up and smelled it, and suddenly his face showed surprise:
"Thousand-year-old ginseng soup...this is really good stuff!"

"Brother Wang, do you recognize this object?"

"When I was an official in the capital, I was lucky enough to attend a banquet hosted by the royal family. It is said that thousand-year-old ginseng soup can prolong life and is priceless." Wang Mang said as he picked up the ginseng soup and drank it in big gulps.

After drinking a bowl, his whole body was filled with energy and blood, his face glowed red, and his whole temperament took on a new look. The energy and blood in his body surged up like a long river, and there were signs of a desire to break through.

Wang Mang's eyes suddenly flashed with lightning, he took a long breath, and his tone was slightly excited:
"This ginseng soup... is so beneficial, I feel like I'm about to have a breakthrough!"

Jiang Ning's mind suddenly moved and said: "Brother Wang, you are about to break through and become a martial arts master."

"Yeah." Wang Mang nodded, not surprised that Jiang Ning could judge his own cultivation level.

The other party has such a powerful master. It would be strange if he couldn't guess his current level.

"Congratulations!"

Jiang Ning smiled slightly. If Wang Mang could break through to the fourth level of martial arts master, the chance of leaving here would undoubtedly be greater.

Wang Mang grinned, unable to restrain the smile on his face:

"Thanks to this bowl of ginseng soup, the hidden disease in my body has been completely eliminated." "For Wushen Dao, while the combat power is stronger than the same level, it also requires more actual combat to temper oneself in order to gain entrance into the palace."

"However, actual combat will also face the risk of injury. Once there are any internal injuries or hidden diseases, the progress of future cultivation breakthroughs will be greatly weakened."

It makes sense... Jiang Ning nodded secretly and lamented that there is no inherently easy path in this world. Although the martial arts path has a lower threshold than the longevity path, it is not as focused on understanding and qualifications as the longevity path. It can be supplemented by acquired efforts, but it may also encounter the most variables. Yes, if there is any calamity that cannot be overcome, the achievements in life will end here.

"Thousand-year-old ginseng is said to require the gathering of the spirits of heaven and earth in order to be conceived. However, it is not only a matter of age, but also needs to be continuously nourished by the earth's veins."

"The span of time is so huge. It is simple to say that it can survive the pregnancy process without any damage, but how can we expect that things in the world are unpredictable."

"I didn't expect that I would be able to drink a bowl of such rich ginseng soup in this place. The concentration is much higher than when I was at the palace banquet. Only then can it have the effect of repairing hidden diseases. With this opportunity, Wang will be the only one in his life. It is expected to break through the martial arts master."

Wang Mang's tone was full of emotion, his fists were slightly clenched, and it was easy to see the uncontrollable excitement in his heart.

The bottleneck that has been stuck for so many years... Who would have thought that in such a strange village, an opportunity for a breakthrough would be found?
It really lives up to the saying that things in the world are impermanent!

Jiang Ning was lost in thought. He remembered that the fried dough sticks brought by Xiaoxiao seemed to be made of spiritual roots.

Spiritual roots, which have the same origin as ginseng, are both natural materials and earthly treasures born from the earth’s veins and spirits.

Since Li Jingnian and Xiaoxiao can get this kind of thing, it means that thousand-year-old ginseng is not a rare thing in this village. Is there possible place where this kind of natural material and earthly treasure can be mass-produced?

Just drinking a bowl of ginseng soup can instantly increase the progress of [Human Food] by a hundred points...

If you can poke out the thousand-year-old ginseng's nest, wouldn't it be possible to advance to the second level in minutes?
at this time.

Wang Mang stood up, patted the dust on his trousers, and said:
"It's getting late. Since there is such a treasure in the Lin Mansion, it may be able to break the fog, so we must investigate it as soon as possible."

"However, there are still many dangers in Lin Mansion and it is inconvenient to move around. For the time being, I can go alone."

"You can go find Xiaoxiao. As a princess, that little girl will be of great help to us in leaving the village in the future...and she may have some secrets hidden in her body."

"Including this village, you need to investigate the situation."

"And I have to take the time to break through and become a martial arts master. Maybe I can break through the fog with thunder without the help of the ghost flag."

Jiang Ning nodded and approved Wang Mang's plan:

"Then I'll go investigate the red plum fruit and see if there can be any progress within the dynasty."

In addition, he still has some unsaid plans...

If Wang Mang wants to break through the martial arts master, he must also look for opportunities to continue to brush the progress bar on the panel and advance to [Yin Body].

now.

The progress on the panel has reached 910 points.

He could feel the Yin Qi in the earth veins becoming more intense, but because Wang Mang was standing beside him and did not dare to use all his strength to absorb it, he did not start sprinting yet.

At the same time, knowing the existence of thousand-year ginseng, Jiang Ning also had other plans in mind...
