Before he could find a way out, the other party had already charged in. This was equivalent to falling into a dead end once more. What should he do?
However, there was no time for him to think. As soon as it entered the room, the puppet charged straight for Zhang Xuan.
Clearly, the other party had already infuriated it to the point of ignoring Luo Qiqi.
"Damn it!"
Knowing how fearsome that fellow was, Zhang Xuan knew that he was no match for him at all. Thus, he leaped into the air.
Not only was this hall much larger than the previous room, it was also much more spacious. Since he couldn't face the puppet head-on, he decided to fly first.
Sou!
As soon as Zhang Xuan rose into the air, he suddenly felt a powerful aura gushing forth from below. The puppet was leaping toward him.
Although this fellow didn't know how to fly … a height of several dozen meters was nothing to a Saint-level golem.
"Teacher, let me help you!"
Seeing that the puppet was determined to chase after her teacher, Luo Qiqi panicked. Flicking her wrist, she took out a bow, nocked it, and shot an arrow toward the puppet.
Wu!
Harnessing the might of a Transcendent Mortal 6-dan pinnacle expert, the arrow arrived before the puppet in the blink of an eye. However, the puppet flicked it away with a flick of its hand.
This moment of hesitation allowed Zhang Xuan to find an opportunity. He quickly changed his direction and flew in Luo Qiqi's direction.
Since he was able to fly, he could change his direction freely in the air. On the other hand, the puppet continued leaping forward.
"Teacher …"
Seeing Zhang Xuan flying over, Luo Qiqi couldn't be bothered to ask him why he was able to fly. Instead, she looked at him worriedly and asked, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine now, but if I can't find the exit soon, I'll be in trouble …"
Zhang Xuan's complexion turned awful.
It was possible for him to avoid the other party a few times, but once he ran out of zhenqi, it would be impossible for him to escape.
"Quickly keep the Crimson Blaze Cauldron and find a way out …"
Knowing that it was pointless to say anything, Zhang Xuan hurriedly instructed.
"Alright …"
Luo Qiqi hurriedly nodded. She walked up to the cauldron and placed her hand on it, intending to keep it in her storage ring.
But before she could do so, a voice suddenly sounded.
"I am Wu Yangzi! Anyone who is able to forge or upgrade a Spirit high-tier weapon will be able to obtain my heritage. Otherwise, if you recklessly take away the Crimson Blaze Cauldron, the entire underground palace will collapse. If you obtain my inheritance, I will naturally tell you the way to leave this underground palace. Otherwise, you will be buried here with me! "
"Collapse?"
"Buried with them?"
Zhang Xuan and Luo Qiqi were stunned, and they felt like they were going crazy.
Who wants your inheritance?
There was such a huge puppet in front of him that could attack at any moment. How could he have the time to forge a weapon?
Are you trying to kill us?
Furthermore, to forge a Spirit high-tier weapon... Most probably, only a 5-star pinnacle blacksmith would be able to do so!
Even though Luo Qiqi knew how to smith weapons, she was only at 5-star primary stage. How could she possibly smith a weapon that could only be forged by a 5-star pinnacle cultivator?
As for him … it could be said that he knew nothing about blacksmithing. It was even more impossible that he hadn't even taken a single star examination …
Boom!
Just as the two of them were feeling gloomy, another shockwave surged toward them. The puppet had already landed on the ground. After confirming its direction, it charged forward once more.
Judging from this fellow's speed, it wouldn't take more than a few breaths for him to reach them and continue to tangle with them.
"Teacher, what should we do?"
Luo Qiqi's eyes were filled with anxiety.
Not only was she anxious, but Zhang Xuan's scalp was also numb.
He had crossed blows with this massive fellow earlier, and even his clone was unable to withstand a single blow from it. If it were to chase after him, it was likely that he would be killed within a few blows!
Based on Wu Yangzi's words, it seemed like he would only be able to leave after obtaining his heritage. Otherwise, he would be trapped here until his death...
If they wanted to obtain the heritage, they would have to forge a weapon … But given the current situation, even if they wanted to forge a weapon … this huge fellow wouldn't give them the time to do so!
"Unless … there's some kind of formation that can trap that fellow. Otherwise, even if we want to forge a weapon, we won't be able to do it!"
Luo Qiqi said anxiously.
"Indeed. However, even if it's a formation, it has to be at least grade-6. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to trap it …"
Zhang Xuan nodded. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he couldn't help but be taken aback. "Grade 6 formation?"
"Quick, help me block this guy for a few breaths of time!"
With a thought in mind, Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up, and he leaped into the air.
"Alright!"
Seeing her teacher's expression, Luo Qiqi knew that he must have noticed something. Without any hesitation, she took out another arrow and shot it at the puppet!
Sou sou sou sou!
Every single arrow carried immense might, forcing the puppet to raise its hands to block them.
Seeing how powerful Luo Qiqi's arrows were, Zhang Xuan knew that she wouldn't be able to shoot more than a few arrows at this rate. Thus, without any hesitation, he flicked his wrist, and a pile of formation flags appeared in his hands.
They were the ones that he had dug out in the valley previously.
He knew quite a few grade-3 formation blueprints, but he knew very little about formations beyond grade-4. The only grade-5 formation he knew was the Spirit Gathering Formation.
Under normal circumstances, it would have been impossible for him to set up a grade-6 formation.
Without knowing the blueprint and the appropriate formation flags, how could he possibly set up a grade-6 formation?
However, it just so happened that he happened to see a grade-6 formation outside the valley.
Yu Fei-er had used the Formation Breaking Silver Needle to activate the formation, and the detailed distribution and flaws of the formation had appeared in the Library of Heaven's Path. Through this, Zhang Xuan's understanding of the formation had surpassed that of the Spirit Gathering Formation.
And this Concealment Formation just so happened to be a grade-6 formation... Zhang Xuan also happened to keep the formation flags in his storage ring!
Back then, he had only thought that it would be a waste to throw such a good item away. Who could have thought that it would come in handy at this moment!
"The room is large enough for me to set up …"
While in midair, Zhang Xuan scanned the entire hall.
Since this Concealment Formation could conceal the entrance, it could conceal the cauldron and book as well.
As long as the puppet couldn't find them, they would have sufficient time to forge a Spirit weapon and obtain Elder Wu Yangzi's heritage!
However, the Concealment Formation from before took up a huge area. It was fortunate that there was sufficient space here, or else they might not have been able to set it up.
"Go!"
After confirming the location, Zhang Xuan flicked his finger.
Weng!
The formation flags in his palm shot out in all directions.
"Formation flags? Is teacher going to set up a formation? "
Luo Qiqi, who was in the midst of stopping the puppet with her arrows, was taken aback by Zhang Xuan's actions.
Even though she hadn't learned formation before, her close friend was a 5-star formation master, so she had seen how formations were set up.
Even the most formidable formation master of the Master Teacher Academy's Formation Faculty would have to first use a compass to measure the area before setting up a formation, placing formation flags into the ground inch by inch...
On the other hand, this young man was able to shoot out several formation flags while he was still in midair …
Are you for real?
Can you really set up a formation like that?
Aren't you taking this too lightly?
While Luo Qiqi was shocked, the strength of the arrows in her hands was insufficient. The puppet in the distance roared furiously, grabbed one of the arrows, and tossed it toward her.
Wuuuuu!
Even though it was just a hand toss, the other party's strength was simply too great. The arrow whistled through the air, piercing straight toward her.
Narrowing her eyes, Luo Qiqi hurriedly dodged to the side. However, a gust of wind blew past her, tearing apart the clothes around her shoulder, leaving a trail of blood on her snow-white skin.
Roar!
This arrow left her with no choice but to dodge. Roaring furiously once more, the puppet charged toward Zhang Xuan in midair.
With a twist of his body, Zhang Xuan changed his direction and continued to toss the formation flags in his hands into the ground.
"Your opponent is me, so don't go looking for trouble with me!"
Seeing that the fellow was chasing after her once more, Luo Qiqi gritted her teeth, drew her bow, and shot another arrow.
Weng!
She had gathered all of her strength into this arrow, and its speed was as swift as a comet.
Ding!
The puppet didn't manage to block it in time, and the arrow struck its glabella.
However, this fellow's defense was simply too strong. Furthermore, it was a puppet, so it didn't have any acupoints or anything of the sort. Even though the arrow struck its vitals, it wasn't injured in the slightest.
Roaring furiously once more, it ignored Zhang Xuan and charged toward her.
Clearly, the puppet's hatred had been pulled away by Luo Qiqi, and the only thing it wanted to do at this moment was to mince this woman into meat paste.
Hu!
Before Luo Qiqi could even react, the Otherworldly Demon puppet was already right before her. With its fingers spread wide open, it attempted to grab her.
Even though the puppet didn't possess any zhenqi, the might it emanated still left Luo Qiqi breathless.
"Scram!"
Roaring furiously, Luo Qiqi didn't have the time to shoot anymore. Thus, she raised her bow and whipped it toward the huge fellow before her.
Her sword had pierced into the wall of the stone hut back then, and she didn't have a chance to retrieve it yet. Furthermore, it was already too late for her to grab a weapon, so she could only use her bow to block the attack.
Huala!
Before the bow could strike the other party, the puppet had already grabbed it and tugged it lightly.
Luo Qiqi felt a sharp pain in her hand. She hurriedly let go, and the weapon was already in the other party's grasp.
Even Zhang Xuan was unable to withstand the other party's strength, so how could she possibly do so?
Kacha!
Grabbing the bow, the Otherworldly Demon puppet snapped the Spirit intermediate-tier weapon into two and tossed it to the side before reaching for Luo Qiqi once more.
Pilipala!
A deafening sonic boom echoed in the air. Luo Qiqi hurriedly retreated, but it was still too late. A powerful shockwave struck her chest, sending her tumbling several times in the air before crashing heavily into the wall not too far away.
Puuu!
A mouthful of blood spurted from Luo Qiqi's mouth, and her face paled.
To think that a talented Grade 2 student of the Master Teacher Academy wouldn't even be able to withstand a single blow from the other party. This left her deeply depressed.
"This won't do. I have to buy some time for teacher!"
Struggling to her feet, Luo Qiqi saw that the puppet had abandoned her and was turning its attention back to Zhang Xuan. Gritting her teeth, she charged forward.
"Your opponent is me!"
With a furious bellow, she raised her fist.
Luo Feng Fist!
This was a fist art left behind by her ancestor. It had reached Spirit advanced stage, and it possessed incredible might. It was the strongest offensive technique she could execute at the moment!
Even a Transcendent Mortal 7-dan Perfect Harmonization realm primary stage expert would have to avoid it.
However, this huge monster wasn't a Perfect Harmonization realm expert, nor was it a human. Before the fist could even reach her, the other party had already flicked a finger at her.
Pu!
Fresh blood spurted from her mouth, and Luo Qiqi flipped twice in the air before flying backward once more.
Just as she thought that she would surely crash into the wall this time, she suddenly felt a surge of zhenqi shrouding her from behind.
Following which, a calm voice sounded by her ear.
"Leave the rest to me!"
