Jin Ying did not notice the expressions on the two of them. Right now, she was focused on the ball of Vital Qi. The allure of Vital Qi was too great. Once she had Vital Qi, she would definitely be reborn. Her chances of becoming an immortal would increase exponentially.
Rumble!
However, just as Jin Ying grabbed the Vital Qi mass, a beam of white light shot out from the bottom of the pool. The light headed straight for Jin Ying.
Jin Ying's expression changed slightly. A bone-chilling sense of danger welled up in her heart. Sensing the danger, she retreated almost without hesitation. At the same time, with a flick of her wrist, a small green shield appeared in her hand. The shield grew in the wind, becoming a beam of green light that enveloped her entire body.
Retreating did not allow Jin Ying to avoid the beam of light. The white beam of light still crashed into her body. The terrifying power seemed to be able to tear through the air, sending Jin Ying flying.
The green light protection that the shield had transformed into was torn apart almost instantly. The effect was minimal. Fortunately, Jin Ying had many treasures. As the green light disappeared, a golden hoop appeared in her hand, instantly enveloping her.
Even so, it could not block the terrifying power of the white light. The golden hoop did not last long and was sent flying.
However, the power of the white beam of light was also mostly depleted. When it crashed into Jin Ying, it had less than a fifth of its power.
Even so, it still broke through Jin Ying's inner Qi protection and sent her flying.
Ptui!
Jin Ying's face turned pale. She spat out a mouthful of blood and landed pathetically on the ground.
Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with shock. This woman was practically a treasure trove. She had one spiritual weapon after another. The treasures that other people yearned for were just ordinary equipment to her.
If not for that, the beam of white light most likely had the power to kill Jin Ying.
"What is that thing?" Jin Ying's face was dark. Her eyes were fixed on the bottom of the pool. If she had not been decisive and reacted quickly, she would most likely have been seriously injured.
Mo Wen and Yin Banshuang stared intently at the soil under the pool. They ignored Jin Ying. Both of them looked as though they were facing a great enemy.
Ptui!
A dark shadow broke out of the soil. It was seven or eight meters long. It was a sharp metal rod that looked like a spider's leg. Then, a second, a third … One after another, metal legs popped out of the pool. The soil above the pool quickly sank, and a large steel spider slowly floated up from the soil.
The third puppet beast was also the strongest puppet beast that Yin Banshuang had mentioned!
Previously, Yin Banshuang had only seen this puppet beast from afar. After sensing a strong sense of danger, she didn't dare to approach it and left.
At such a close distance, the feeling was even more vivid, and the sense of danger kept rising from the bottom of his heart.
Other than Mo Wen, the expressions of Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying changed.
"So powerful!"
Jin Ying sucked in a breath of cold air. Without a doubt, it was this thing that had attacked her underground.
Only then did she feel that this puppet beast was far different from the previous two. The terrifying aura it exuded was enough to kill all of them. That aura was terrifying. Even an expert at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm was nothing more than this.
"What should we do?"
Yin Banshuang looked at Mo Wen. She had originally thought that the power of this Puppet Beast was at most equivalent to the later stage of the Golden Elixir Realm. She had not expected it to be so powerful. It was almost impossible to defeat.
For the first time, she had the thought of retreating. No matter how attractive the Vital Qi was, one had to be alive to enjoy it.
Mo Wen pursed his lips. His eyes shone with a golden light. No one knew what he was thinking.
The spider puppet beast was very strange. It didn't attack Mo Wen and the other two. It only guarded below the mass of Vital Qi. It seemed that it would only attack when others approached the mass of Vital Qi.
"The two of you just need to delay it for the time of ten breaths. I might be able to finish it off."
After a while, a sharp light flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. He looked at Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying.
Under normal circumstances, this spider puppet beast was almost impossible to defeat. Even if the three of them combined forces, they wouldn't be able to withstand a single slap from a pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner. However, this spider puppet beast was not a true pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner. Without a master to control it, the puppet beast could only rely on its instincts to fight. There were many loopholes that they could exploit.
Also, the puppet beast had a fatal weakness, and that was its energy system. As long as their energy system was destroyed, no matter how powerful the puppet beast was, it would just be a pile of scrap metal. Mo Wen naturally wouldn't be able to find the specific location of the energy system for normal puppet beasts. However, because of the corrosion of time, the puppet beasts here had all lost their deified sense shielding ability. This was a great advantage for Mo Wen.
However, the difference in power was obvious. They were only ancient martial art practitioners and not immortal cultivators. Even though they knew the location of the energy system, it was not easy to destroy it. This spider puppet beast was very different from the previous two puppet beasts. Its energy system was hidden very deeply. Only by attacking the inside of its steel shell could one cause damage to it.
Hence, the flying dagger spiritual weapon might not be of much use at this moment. The armor of the puppet beast was too hard. The flying dagger could not penetrate it at all. Only a stronger power could destroy the internal structure of the puppet beast.
Ten breaths of time was not long, but when faced with a puppet beast with power comparable to the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm, both Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying felt pressured. Fortunately, it was a puppet beast and not a pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner. Otherwise, there would be no chance at all.
The gap between every stage of the Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioners was too great. The pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm facing a beginning stage Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner was like an Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner facing a Sea of Qi Realm ancient martial art practitioner. The difference was huge.
"How confident are you?"
Yin Banshuang looked at Mo Wen with a serious expression. If Mo Wen could not finish off the puppet beast within ten breaths of time, then they would all be in danger.
It was even possible that she would be killed by this terrifying big fellow in less than ten breaths of time. If not for the fact that she could not resist the temptation of the Vital Qi, she would not take this risk at all.
"Fifty percent," Mo Wen said lightly.
Yin Banshuang frowned. A fifty percent success rate meant that their risk only had a fifty percent chance of success.
"Let's go all out. Who cares so much? Something like Vital Qi is very difficult for even immortal cultivators to obtain. This is probably the only chance in this lifetime. If I miss it, I will most likely regret it for the rest of my life."
Jin Ying stomped her foot fiercely. Her body released a fierce aura. She was like a tigress that was ready to go all out.
"I hope you will not disappoint us." Yin Banshuang took a deep breath. She gritted her teeth and nodded. She was not an indecisive person.
"When I tell you to do it, do it."
Mo Wen nodded. His sleeve shook slightly. Items that looked like balls of flames suddenly flew out from his sleeve. They circled around Mo Wen and then collided with each other, giving off a crisp sound of metal striking each other.
After the balls of flames merged, a longsword that was burning with raging flames appeared in Mo Wen's hand. It was the Sacred Fire Sword.
Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying almost immediately focused their gazes on the Sacred Fire Sword. Their eyes were filled with surprise.
Yin Banshuang only felt that the seven balls of flames were somewhat familiar. It was as though she had seen them somewhere before. But after thinking deeply about it, she could not remember where.
As for Jin Ying, she instinctively felt that the Sacred Fire Sword was not simple. A strange feeling welled up in her heart. It was as though her Golden Dragon Dual Dancing Whips and Mo Wen's Green Primordial Mirror were far inferior to this strange longsword.
The Golden Dragon Dual Dancing Whips and the Green Primordial Mirror were both top grade spiritual weapons. They were both top-notch existences among spiritual weapons. Could it be that the ancient longsword was also a profound level weapon?
Jin Ying looked at Mo Wen with a somewhat complicated gaze. Profound level weapons were very precious even among immortal cultivators. Even she could not possibly have one. Who was this youth to actually have such a thing?
In reality, Mo Wen did not think that the Sacred Fire Sword in his hand was just a profound level weapon. It was very likely that it was a legendary treasured weapon.
However, the Sacred Fire Sword should have been sealed by a mysterious power. It did not have the power or strange phenomenon of a treasured weapon. Even so, the power of the Sacred Fire Sword right now should not be inferior to a profound level weapon.
Before this, he had only used the Sacred Fire Sword as an ordinary weapon. He had never channeled spiritual power to activate the Sacred Fire Sword's true power because the conditions did not allow it. Now that he had enough spiritual stones, he wanted to test out the power of the Sacred Fire Sword.
Mo Wen flicked his wrist and took out five spiritual stones from his sleeve. He grabbed them all in his hand. In a moment, the five spiritual stones disappeared. They had all turned into spiritual power and surged into his body. Then, he took out another five spiritual stones. Not long after, the five spiritual stones disappeared again.
Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying looked at each other. They both drew in a cold breath. There was even some fear in their eyes. At that moment, they looked at Mo Wen as though they were looking at a monster.
An ancient martial art practitioner could actually transform spiritual power at such a frightening speed! That was something that even an ancient martial art practitioner at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm could not do!
Also, Mo Wen's body could actually contain so much spiritual power. How was that possible? Any other ancient martial art practitioner would most likely explode and die if they were to withstand so much spiritual power, unless they were the legendary Martial Arts Grandmasters!
A scene that should have been impossible was happening right in front of the two of them!
"Don't just stand there. Hurry up and do it."
Mo Wen took a deep breath and forcefully endured the swelling sensation in his body. This time, he had absorbed too much spiritual power. Even though he had practiced the Immortal Cultivation method before, he was still somewhat unable to take it. If he did not use his power quickly, he might really explode.
With the ability of the spider Puppet Monster, it was too difficult for him to get close to the energy system alone. It was possible that he would be sent flying before he could even get close! So, he needed two people to distract the Puppet Monster. Only then would it be easier for him to succeed.
There was only one chance. If he used the spiritual power elsewhere, it was very likely that he would not be able to break open the shell of the spider Puppet Monster.
Yin Banshuang and Jin Ying both suppressed the shock in their hearts. After all, whether they could obtain the Vital Qi and defeat the spider Puppet Monster was the most important thing. They definitely could not be distracted at this time.
Also, right now, both of them felt a surge of confidence. Mo Wen had absorbed so much spiritual power. How terrifying would his attack be? It was very likely that he could really defeat the terrifying Puppet Monster. (To be continued.)
