Entering the Inner Palace was not as simple as entering the Puppet Outer Palace.
It required an Innate Level Authentication.
In the past hundreds of years, maybe some Yue Clan elders had entered the Outer Palace, but Yue Yang was sure that no one else had entered the Inner Palace before him. The Three Great Secret Treasures had never been seen before. He didn't even know if the Ghost Genius Yue Gong had completed them. Yue Yang summoned his grimoire and channeled his Innate Qi into the Heaven Rune at the entrance of the Inner Palace.
In an instant, a light flashed. The authentication crystal had successfully channeled its energy and activated the device inside.
The passage to the Inner Palace was a Magic Floating Stone that could be moved up and down.
When Yue Yang stepped on it, the Magic Floating Stone slowly descended. About a hundred metres later, a new Palace appeared in front of Yue Yang.
All kinds of instruments were placed on the left and right. In the middle, there was a crystal pillar that Yue Yang was familiar with. It was about ten metres tall and was filled with energy. Heaven Runes were engraved on it, faintly emitting a white brilliance.
This crystal pillar was very similar to the teleportation crystal pillar that Yue Yang saw in Tong Tian Tower. It was also similar to the crystal pillar that sealed the Qilin girl in the Demon Palace.
However, it was neither of them.
Yue Yang realized that this crystal pillar's energy, teleportation, sealing and other effects were completely different. It was somewhat similar to a magic crystal's effect. What made Yue Yang feel strange was that a large piece of the crystal pillar was missing, as if someone had used some kind of device to cut it off. Could it be that the Ghost Genius Yue Gong was going to use this crystal pillar's fragment as the core driving force for the puppet?
Yue Yang, who had fought in the Demon Palace, knew how sturdy this crystal pillar was.
Even if it was the Demon King's light pillar attack or the Qilin girl breaking free from the seal, it was not damaged at all.
How did the Ghost Genius Yue Gong cut it off?
Besides, puppets didn't need any additional driving force to move at all. As long as the dwarven rune combination was accurate, they didn't need any magic crystals to create low-level Rock Puppets … Those that needed additional driving force were all precision Mechanical War Puppets. What kind of precision Mechanical War Puppets would need to use a Crystal Pillar fragment as the core driving force?
Suddenly, the Quintet Golden Puppet Mice went past Yue Yang and rushed towards the crystal pillar.
Huh?
Yue Yang's summoning grimoire automatically flipped.
On the page of the Quintet Golden Puppet Mice, a line of words appeared: Found the energy source, filling the energy reserves …
The Quintet Golden Puppet Mice moved closer to the crystal pillar that had a big gap, their tails connected to the Heaven Rune at the base of the crystal pillar. Energy flashed, and streams of energy flowed from their tails to their bodies. At this time, the unremarkable Quintet Seeking Golden Mice's bodies became sparkling and translucent, as if they had suddenly turned into crystals. Yue Yang felt that it was inconceivable. Even puppet beasts couldn't level up, how could the Quintet Golden Puppet Mice that Yue Gong created be able to level up automatically?
Could it be that this chipped crystal pillar was one of the three secret treasures?
It would probably take some time for the five mice to fill up.
Yue Yang decided to take a look at the other treasures first.
The palace was very tall, the ceiling was domed, and there were rows of pillars that separated different spaces. In every space, there were different beasts. There were humanoid puppet beasts, humanoid puppet beasts, and even animal-shaped mechanical monsters.
Here, there was a type of puppet beasts that couldn't be seen. Those were the Rock Giants that didn't need any extra power.
The inner palace was filled with puppets that were made of metal, and there were all kinds of them.
Casually walking in front of a Silver-ranked Level 5 Storm Warrior, Yue Yang picked up the bottle at its feet and gently poured out a polished crystal ball. The crystal ball was about the size of a ping pong ball and was filled with energy. There was a Heaven Rune engraved on it, "Wind Eagle". Yue Yang tried to put the Wind Eagle Crystal Ball into the dent on the Storm Warrior's forehead.
The humanoid puppet's eyes flashed with blue light, as if it had just woken up.
The blue light in its eyes scanned Yue Yang's body.
Faster than lightning, it pulled out the sword that was originally stuck at its waist and slashed downwards. Yue Yang was alarmed when he saw its eyes glowing just now. In a flash, he flew into the sky and dodged the Storm Warrior's attack.
The Storm Warrior jumped twice, but it couldn't hit Yue Yang. It immediately started to transform.
Yue Yang was dumbfounded.
Damn, the Ghost Genius Yue Gong was really an abnormal person. He could even create the Soaring Dragon Continent's Transformers. The Storm Warrior quickly transformed into a mechanical Wind Eagle. It spread out its huge wings and soared into the sky. Its claws quickly clawed towards Yue Yang's body. If the person who came in wasn't Yue Yang, but someone else, if they saw this kind of strange phenomenon and received this kind of strange attack, even if they didn't die, they would be heavily injured … Would a Silver-ranked Level 5 Puppet Beast be a threat to Yue Yang? Even if it could transform, if Yue Yang wanted to attack, it would only take a second to end the battle.
Yue Yang dodged it cleverly. In the instant that he passed by, he reached out his hand and retrieved the small crystal ball that was embedded on the Wind Eagle's forehead.
The mechanical Wind Eagle immediately floated down to the ground and quickly transformed back into the Storm Warrior's appearance.
The blue light in its eyes disappeared and it returned to its original calm state.
Of course, it wasn't standing at its original position anymore. It was standing at a corner of the Great Hall, more than ten metres away from its original position. If Yue Yang didn't see it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe that Yue Gong could create such a powerful Transformers … The only flaw was that it couldn't be controlled. It didn't differentiate between friend and foe when it attacked. It was a headache. If only there was a controller for this thing!
After searching for a long time, Yue Yang finally found a wristband with a crystal ball embedded on it on the right side of the Great Hall.
This should be the distinguishing device. After Yue Yang put it on, he activated the Storm Warrior. As expected, it didn't attack anymore. Yue Yang used his spirit to guide the Storm Warrior and the wristband device to guide it. The Storm Warrior obediently walked back to its original position.
It didn't resist Yue Yang's action of retrieving the crystal ball.
"Awesome, I didn't think that Yue Gong would really solve the problem of transforming the puppet." Yue Yang admired Yue Gong from the bottom of his heart. He had also made a Puppet Beast before, so he knew how troublesome it was to make a Puppet Beast. It was already good enough to make a Puppet move. On the other hand, the Puppets that Yue Gong made could not only use combat skills, they could also transform and adapt to different terrains and battles. Compared to Yue Yang, who was from another world, Yue Gong was much stronger. Even though Yue Yang had inherited the knowledge from the pitiful guy's mother and studied the Puppet Encyclopedia that Yue Gong had left behind, when it came to making Puppet Beasts, he and Yue Gong were simply not on the same level.
In the Great Hall, there was a bottle at the feet of every Puppet Beast. That was their energy core.
Silver-ranked Level 5 Puppets like the Storm Warrior were all placed on the forehead.
Those that were Silver-ranked Level 6 and above were all placed in the heart, their energy core would not be exposed. For those that were Gold-ranked Level 5 and below, like the Gold Mammoth, their energy core was placed in the head. If one didn't shatter the head, one wouldn't be able to stop it from moving. Furthermore, this kind of Puppet Beast's head had the strongest defense. For those that were Gold-ranked Level 5 and above, like the Gold Titan, this kind of giant had two energy cores, one in the head and the other in the heart.
The strangest thing was that this kind of Mechanical Titan could still exchange its head and arms even if it lost its body parts.
Once it lost its ability to fight, it would automatically repair itself.
If there were any spare parts, they would directly pick them up and use them. If there were no spare parts, they would also exchange them.
Yue Yang couldn't understand the Ghost Genius Yue Gong's design. How did he design it to be able to do this?
This was practically an AI!
As expected of the Ghost Genius, this fellow was really awesome. He couldn't help but admire him!
"I don't have much time left. However, I have only made some progress in my research. I really want to live for another hundred years, even ten years would be good. It's a pity that my body has already reached its limit … Heaven Runes are really useful things. I am like an enlightened child, gaining new insights every day. This feeling is too good … It's a pity that I can't tell anyone about it, I can't share it with anyone … The combination of Heaven Runes feels like human words, but it's richer and more perfect, just like human poems. No, it's a type of summoning technique. It's actually a very special summoning technique. As long as I learn this summoning technique, countless difficult problems in different fields would be easily solved … My research is only at the beginner level. God gave me a brain that was good at thinking, but he didn't give me a long life. Sigh, this is all God's will … "
"The real Puppet Grimoire?" Yue Yang discovered Yue Gong's belongings. It was a book that was similar to the Puppet Grimoire in Yue Yang's Lich Ring.
When he flipped open this Puppet Grimoire, he realized that the knowledge inside was too rich. It was dazzling.
Compared to this, the Puppet Grimoire in his Lich Ring was like a primary school textbook.
Inside this real [Puppet Grimoire], there were no basic things. Everything that was recorded was the crystallization of the Ghost Genius Yue Gong's blood, sweat and tears. There were also rune combinations, energy distribution, transformation targets, battle instincts and corresponding battle skills, etc … Yue Yang was excited as he read. With this Puppet Grimoire, he would never have to worry about not having enough puppet beasts!
At the end of this Puppet Grimoire, Yue Gong's regret was recorded, "In my life, I have created countless beasts, but none of them were successful. They all had their own flaws. They were all failures. How I wish I could create a perfect puppet beast. If I was given ten years, even three years, I would be able to take a step closer to this regret … Now, I can only bring this regret with me and sleep forever … If my descendants read this book, I hope that they will inherit my research and continue to create a perfect puppet beast … I hope that, after a thousand or ten thousand years, there will be an outstanding descendant who will complete my regret. He will bring a puppet beast that can speak, learn and have emotions. He will bring this puppet beast that is just like a human to my crystal coffin and tell me this good news, so that I can smile in the underworld … "
After Yue Yang finished reading, he muttered to himself for a long time.
In the end, he slowly nodded his head, "Although I feel that your regret is an impossible task, I will try my best."
After keeping the Puppet Grimoire into his Lich Ring, Yue Yang found an inconspicuous rune. If one didn't recognise the Heaven Rune, they would definitely not know its use. However, Yue Yang recognised this Heaven Rune. It meant 'secret door'. Discovering its existence, Yue Yang's heartbeat quickened. Could it be that there was another secret door here?
Yue Yang pressed his hand on the Heaven Rune and inserted his Innate Qi into it.
The Heaven Rune shone brightly. At the same time, behind the pillar, on the wall, a hole silently appeared. The secret door quietly opened, revealing the innermost secret room.
Other than the Energy Source Crystal Pillar and the real [Puppet Grimoire], the third treasure was in this secret room.
When Yue Yang entered the secret room and saw what the third treasure was.
He was completely stunned.
With a sincerity that he had never shown before, Yue Yang said sincerely, "Senior Yue Gong, I take back what I said just now. I will definitely help you complete your regret. Not just try my best, but I will definitely do it! No matter how long it takes, I will definitely help you complete it! "
After coming out from the Puppet Palace, Yue Yang returned to the Little Flower Garden. When he told the girls about the exploration process, he showed them the energy source crystal pillar and the real Puppet Grimoire.
However, he didn't mention the third treasure to them.
The girls didn't ask him either.
They knew that if they needed to know, he would definitely tell them …
Ghost Genius Yue Gong's regret was definitely related to the third treasure! This was Yue Gong's secret. Yue Yang had to help him keep this secret.
Until the day he completed his regret!
After exploring the Puppet Palace, Yue Yang felt that no matter if it was his state of mind or his knowledge, they had all increased greatly. Faintly, he was about to break through the sixth level of Innate Invisible Sword Qi!
Would he be able to break through in time to break through the Prison Emperor Divine Palace?
Yue Yang also had this kind of hope in his heart. After all, every time he became stronger before breaking through the Prison Emperor Divine Palace, the scales of victory would be tilted towards his side!
