Above the Ancient Sacred City, four figures flew forward.
Silver with a tinge of gold, pure silver, dark brown, and red. They were like flashes of light. In the blink of an eye, they came from afar and disappeared into the distance.
"Haha, awesome, this feels so good." Laughter came from the dark brown figure. It was Yang Zhantian's laughter.
"Super fast speed and powerful strength. It feels great, but the energy consumption is too fast." Lian Hongyun's voice came from the red figure.
The pure silver figure was Gu Luankong. The silver figure with a tinge of gold was Chu Mu.
There were a total of seven Heavenly Puppets. Together with the middle-aged man's memories and the Heavenly Puppet Secret Manual, they were all part of the Puppet Sect's inheritance. After all, it wasn't easy to make a Heavenly Puppet. It could even be said that it was extremely difficult. The materials needed were special and precious. In the ancient times, the Puppet Sect had made less than a hundred incomplete Heavenly Puppets and less than ten completed Heavenly Puppets.
After the battle, all the completed Heavenly Puppets had died. Only seven of the incomplete Heavenly Puppets were left.
Chu Mu gave three of them to Gu Luankong and the other two without hesitation.
Each of the seven Heavenly Puppets had the strength of a Seven-star Saint. Simply put, the maximum strength of each Heavenly Puppet was at the peak of the Seven-star Saint level. However, it could be adjusted according to one's wishes. It could be adjusted to unleash the strength of a One Star Saint, a Two Star Saint, or even a Seven-star Saint.
The greater the strength, the more energy it would consume.
Inside Puppet Underground Palace, Chu Mu and the others had done a detailed experiment. Using their first layer of Immemorial Realm cultivation to support the Heavenly Puppet Seven Star Saint rank strength, Chu Mu was the one who lasted the longest. He only lasted for ten breaths of time. After ten breaths of time, his energy was almost exhausted.
Gu Luankong and the other two could only last six to seven breaths.
It couldn't be helped. Their cultivation was so weak compared to a Seven Star Saint level. It was only because of the special structure of the Heavenly Puppets that they could use their energy to move. Otherwise, the difference between a low level Saint level and a high level Saint level would be unbridgeable.
If the Heavenly Puppet only displayed the strength of a six-star Sage, it would be able to last for several times longer.
However, for a battle between powerhouses, a few breaths of time was simply not enough.
Fortunately, there was a way to solve this problem in the Tian Hou Secret Manual, which was to use other energy crystals to replace the consumption of energy.
However, although there were advantages to using energy crystals to replace energy consumption, there were also disadvantages. It was not easy to control. After all, it was not one's own power, so it was not easy to control it. It required an extremely short time to mobilize it, and for a powerhouse, this short time was enough to become a flaw.
Fortunately, all kinds of problems were recorded in the Tian Hou Secret Manual, and there were also related solutions, but it required practice.
This method was called the Channeling Method. It was to use one's own strength to guide the power of the Energy Crystal, thus allowing one to control it freely.
Using a portion of one's strength to guide a portion of one's strength or even more energy from the energy crystals would consume one's strength, but the consumption would be many times lower than before.
Chu Mu had a few thousand Pure Yang Crystals in his collection. Originally, he felt that he would not be able to use them, so he planned to bring them back to the Real Sword Sect. Now that he needed Energy Crystals, he took out some to test it out, and found that it was feasible.
The Pure Yang Crystal was a kind of high grade energy crystal. Every piece of Pure Yang Crystal contained incomparably pure Yang energy. Even if a high level Saint were to absorb it, it would be able to last for a period of time. If a low level Saint were to absorb it, a single piece would be able to last for a long time.
Inside each Heavenly Puppet, there were acupuncture points for energy crystals to be embedded. There were a total of eighteen of them, which meant that each Heavenly Puppet had eighteen Pure Yang Crystals.
Furthermore, Chu Mu gave Gu Luankong and the other two a hundred Pure Yang Crystals as backup. This way, even if the energy of the eighteen Pure Yang Crystals was depleted, they could still be replenished. However, it was not easy to deplete the energy of the eighteen Pure Yang Crystals. It was almost equivalent to the energy of a dozen high-level Sages.
In the Puppet Underground Palace, everyone cultivated the Energy Channeling Technique for a period of time. When they had cultivated it to a very high level and could control it freely, they left the Puppet Underground Palace and went deeper into the Ancient Sacred City.
As they flew, they did not use the speed of a Seven Star Saint. Instead, they maintained the speed of a Five Star Saint. They used the Energy Channeling Technique to circulate the energy throughout their bodies. The consumption of energy was very small, and the consumption of energy from the Pure Yang Crystals was also very small.
Originally, they were still hesitating about whether they should go deeper into the Ancient Sacred City, especially Gu Luankong and the other two. After all, their strongest power was only able to go against a Three Star Saint. Even if they used all their strength and formed the Four Emblems Sword Formation, they would only be able to go against a Seven Star Saint. Under such circumstances, the pressure would be too great, and their energy would be depleted too quickly. They would not be able to last for long.
Now, every Heavenly Puppet's power was at the peak of a Seven Star Saint. The problem of energy depletion was also solved. Every one of them had great power, and there was no reason for them not to go deeper into the Ancient Sacred City.
They had tried it before, and they could still form the Four Emblems Sword Formation while controlling the Heavenly Puppets.
Since it was like this, what was there to hesitate about?
…
On the top floor of a tower that was still intact, there were two groups of people confronting each other. In this group, the weakest one was a Four Star Saint, and the strongest one was a Six Star Saint.
In the middle of them, there was a ball of light. This ball of light was constantly changing colors. It was red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. It emitted a strange energy fluctuation. Everyone was very familiar with it. It was the energy fluctuation of the Primordial Spirit.
In other words, inside this ball of light that was changing colors, there must be a treasure related to the Primordial Spirit.
Treasures related to the Primordial Spirit, even if they were very ordinary, were very precious because there were too few of them.
Such a valuable thing, everyone wanted to get it.
"Six Absolutes of Cold Mountain, we found this treasure first. If you know what's good for you, get out of here right now. Otherwise, we'll kill you all." The leader on the left sneered, and his killing intent was shocking.
"A bunch of mobs. You're the ones who need to get out. Otherwise, all of you will die." The eldest brother of the Six Absolutes of Cold Mountain said angrily.
That's right. The six of them were the Six Absolutes of Cold Mountain who kicked Chu Mu to the curb after crossing the river.
"Then let's try." The group on the left had a total of eight people. They had the upper hand in terms of numbers, but they were a temporary team, while the Six Absolutes of Cold Mountain had been together all year round and had a tacit understanding of each other.
The atmosphere was bleak and tense. Both sides stared at each other, and were distracted by the changing ball of light in the middle, but no one dared to make the first move.
What they said just now was just a threat to each other.
"It's not a good idea to go on like this. Why don't we each send three people to compete? Two out of three. The loser will leave automatically." The leader of the eight people on the left said.
"Okay, how do you want to compete?" The eldest brother of the Six Absolutes of Cold Mountain said.
If they really went all out, it was hard to say who would win or lose. In the end, even if they won, they would suffer heavy losses.
"There's no need to compete. This thing belongs to us." A voice sounded. Four figures flashed and appeared in the tower. One of them quickly approached the ball of light in the middle and reached out to grab it.
"Stop!"
"You're courting death!"
The unexpected newcomer caused both sides to be startled and furious. They immediately attacked and attacked mercilessly.
"You are the ones who are looking for death." Lian Hongyun laughed. He controlled his power to the peak of the Six Star Saint level and instantly unleashed his power. The red sword slashed across the sky, and red clouds appeared. Evil Qi was rolling. The power of the sword was so strong that it forced the two people to retreat.
Gu Luankong's sword seemed to have torn the space apart. It released a terrifying power that forced the three people to retreat.
Yang Zhantian swung his sword and slashed fiercely. One of them was sent flying and crashed into the wall of the tower. With a boom, the whole tower shook.
The three of them only controlled their power to the peak of the Six Star Saint level. They blocked more than half of the people, and the rest of them attacked Chu Mu.
The Sky Puppet that was named Tian Huang by Chu Mu jumped up with a sword on its back. It slashed out a silver light. Tian Huang opened his right hand and clenched it. Then, he slashed out with his sword. The power of the Six Star Saint level was controlled by Chu Mu. A silver light flashed in front of him, and it was extremely sharp.
With a slash, he forced the person who was attacking him to retreat. He turned around and slashed out again, forcing the person on the other side to retreat. His left hand was already grabbing the colorful light ball.
When the light ball entered his hand, it immediately turned into a surge of energy and entered Chu Mu's palm. It then rushed into his brain.
The people who were forced back by Chu Mu attacked again. Chu Mu ignored the information that was rushing into his brain. Compared to the inheritance of the Puppet Sect, this information was insignificant.
He opened his left hand, and the other sword on his back flew into his left hand. The two swords clashed, and a terrifying sound wave burst out, attacking everyone's eardrums.
With two slashes, the Cross Sword Light swept across the sky. It was unstoppable. It directly slashed through the bodies of a Four Star Saint and a Five Star Saint. His body swayed, and he dodged the attack from behind. He turned around and counterattacked. The sharp Sword Light was like thunder, and it was like a dragon.
Kill!
Under the two swords, no one could defeat him. He killed them one by one.
Gu Luankong and the other two were also very powerful. They were invincible under the two swords.
Not long after, the fourteen Four Star to Six Star Saint experts were all killed. Only three Six Star Saint experts were still stubbornly resisting.
Among these three Six Star Saint experts, the one with the highest cultivation base was the eldest brother of the Cold Mountain Six Absolutes. The other two were the last two out of the eight.
"You have already gotten what you want. Let us go." The eldest brother of the Cold Mountain Six Absolutes struggled to block Chu Mu's sword as he shouted.
"In the Profound Yang Palace, from the moment you burned the bridge after crossing the river, you were destined to end up like this." Chu Mu said indifferently. However, the words he said made the other party's heart tremble. He suddenly recalled the scene at that time. A Sword Light enlarged in front of his eyes, and a chilling aura enveloped his whole body.
