"Although the price of this Dissolving Water Bead isn't low, it's worth it to avoid a fierce battle."
Lu Xiaotian put away the Dissolving Water Bead that had darkened quite a bit. He didn't expect that it would be used like this as soon as he bought it. It was indeed a very good treasure for escaping in water. As for that octopus demon beast from before, it was only a third rank. It could be eliminated without any effort, so it wasn't a big deal. Naturally, he didn't have to stay behind and accept the worship of those villagers.
Huh? Lu Xiaotian was about to leave when he suddenly saw a burst of flying sand and stones a few miles away, magic power shooting in all directions. This movement was definitely caused by a Foundation Establishment cultivator. But looking at the momentum, the other party's cultivation was probably not much higher than his.
He originally held a respectful attitude towards disputes, but on second thought, cultivators fought with the heavens, with the earth, and with people. It wouldn't do to think of retreating from every situation.
So Lu Xiaotian adjusted the fluctuations of his magic power to the lowest, and began to approach the center of the battle.
After walking for a few miles, Lu Xiaotian hid behind a small slope. He saw a man in white who was riding a sword. His body was covered in blood, and he was fighting with a bronze mechanical puppet that was more than twenty feet tall. A middle-aged man with a sallow face sat on the shoulder of the bronze puppet.
The bronze puppet held a magic tool, a large bronze hammer, and swung it vigorously with great force. With a blow of the large bronze hammer, the white-clothed man was sent flying dozens of feet away, vomiting blood.
"You actually dare to block my path, you really don't know what's good for you. If it wasn't for me having some problems and not noticing that I fell into your trap, I would have dealt with you long ago. Why would I let you wait until now?" The sallow middle-aged man sat on the mechanical puppet and laughed sinisterly. "Fine, wait for me to deal with you first, then I'll enjoy your wife and your fellow sect members."
Ashamed. After being reminded by the sallow middle-aged man, Lu Xiaotian searched around, and found that there were still two beautiful bodies lying in the grass, their clothes barely covering their bodies. One of the beautiful women was already naked, her face flushed, and her eyebrows flushed. Obviously, she had fallen for the sallow middle-aged man's trick. Moreover, he knew this woman. She was Wang Yuan, who had teamed up with him in the Full Moon Mountain Range before. Lu Xiaotian had never seen such an erotic scene before. The scene of a jade-like body on display caused his throat to twitch. He bit the tip of his tongue and averted his gaze.
"In your dreams! When my two senior brothers arrive, you won't be able to escape even if you have wings!" The white-robed man struggled to get up from the ground. Before he could steady himself, the Copper Puppet's hammer smashed down. The white-robed man once again fled in a sorry state. The copper hammer struck the ground, creating a deep pit that was several feet wide. The huge impact caused the white-clothed man, who had not flown far away, to be affected once again. He stumbled and rolled a few times on the ground before stopping.
"Dream? Do you think your two Senior Brothers can still come here alive? "The middle-aged man with yellow hair said with a chuckle.
"The Southern Martial Empire is under the jurisdiction of our Void Heaven Sect. Three Foundation Establishment disciples have died here. Our Void Heaven Sect's Ancestor Jin Dan will definitely come to investigate. You Thousand Bamboo School remnants will die sooner or later." The white-clothed man shouted in shock and anger.
The Thousand Bamboo School that was famous for refining puppets? It was said that they had already been chased out of the Full Moon Cultivation World by the various sects and had already entered the Southern Wasteland. Lu Xiaotian's heart shook as he thought of a major event that happened in the Full Moon Cultivation World ten thousand years ago. At that time, the Ancient Sword Sect was not the number one Sect in the Full Moon Cultivation World, but the Thousand Bamboo School. It was said that the Thousand Bamboo School had a Soul Formation puppet that swept through all four directions, wanting to unify the entire Full Moon Cultivation World. It destroyed and subdued more than ten sects. Later, for some unknown reason, the Soul Formation puppet was destroyed in a thunderstorm. It was attacked by the remaining dozens of sects in the Full Moon Cultivation World. In the end, the Thousand Bamboo School suffered heavy losses and fled to the Southern Wasteland with its remaining forces.
"Unfortunately, you won't be able to see that day." The yellow-clothed middle-aged man coldly snorted as he looked at the white-clothed man who was on the verge of collapse and shouted, "Die!"
Under the control of the yellow-clothed middle-aged man, the copper puppet swung its hammer. However, the hammer bent and flew out of the copper puppet's hand, smashing towards Lu Xiaotian's head.
Lu Xiaotian was slightly surprised that he had actually been discovered. It seemed that this yellow-clothed middle-aged man was not a simple character. Even during battle, he still maintained vigilance towards his surroundings. However, although this copper puppet was powerful, it was not at the level where it could completely crush him.
Lu Xiaotian snorted coldly and the Earth Splitting Saber suddenly exploded with a golden light. The blade's edge increased by more than ten times and directly chopped at the yellow hammer.
At the same time, he jumped out from behind the slope and another golden flying sword flew out, directly stabbing towards the yellow-clothed middle-aged man on the copper puppet.
The copper puppet actually stretched out its hand and slapped the golden flying sword.
With a bang, the black flying sword shattered inch by inch, revealing a black flying sword whose aura was more than ten times stronger. It was Lu Xiaotian who had reforged the black flying sword's outer body. At such a close distance, Lu Xiaotian did not believe that the other party would not be able to withstand this attack.
As expected, the yellow-clothed middle-aged man was shocked. However, when the black flying sword was only a few feet away from him, the yellow-clothed middle-aged man actually split into two people and simultaneously shot out from the left and right of the copper puppet's shoulder. Their postures were exactly the same.
"Shadow Puppet Technique!" Lu Xiaotian exclaimed. The Secret Technique he had obtained from killing the large freak in the Full Moon Mountain Range was actually related to the Thousand Bamboo School. The two figures looked exactly the same. Like the others, Lu Xiaotian was slightly startled. However, in the time it took for him to be stunned,
However, in this short moment, the copper puppet had already slapped the black flying sword away.
This copper puppet was actually so powerful. Although the black flying sword was not as sharp as the Earth Splitter Blade, it was only able to leave a shallow white mark on the other party's palm. However, in the end, it was still a moderately powerful magic tool. He was already a Foundation Establishment cultivator and was able to withstand a magic tool with his physical body.
"You actually know about the Shadow Puppet Technique. It seems that you are indeed related to my Thousand Bamboo School's lost Secret Technique. I didn't think that after searching high and low for it, I would find it without any effort. Brat, even if you escape now, you will have to face my Thousand Bamboo School's endless pursuit! Unless you hand over everything related to the Shadow Puppetry Technique. "
The yellow-clothed middle-aged man was afraid that the copper puppet would be damaged, so he recalled his hammer. With a swing of the hammer, he sent the golden flying sword flying. However, he had no choice but to focus on dealing with the Earth Splitter Blade. Lu Xiaotian was shocked. How could he not be shocked in his heart? This youth seemed young, but he actually had such a sinister method. A sword was hidden within a sword, and his aura was completely undetectable. If it weren't for the Shadow Puppet Technique causing the other party to be distracted for a moment, his head would have already been separated from his body. Fortunately, he was able to deal with it by a fluke. Moreover, he had obtained information about the Thousand Bamboo School's lost Secret Technique from the other party, which could be considered a blessing in disguise.
Lu Xiaotian glanced at the white-clothed man. At this moment, the other party was already heavily injured. Originally, he was only hanging on by a single breath, but when he saw that someone had unexpectedly come to his rescue, although he didn't know who it was, he forcefully let out a breath of air and collapsed to the ground, unconscious. It seemed that the idea of allying with him had completely fallen through.
Handing over everything related to the Shadow Puppet Technique, the other party's true objective was most likely related to the puppet doll. Compared to the Shadow Puppet Technique, the puppet doll was a treasure that even Jin Dan cultivators would go crazy over. Unfortunately, he had already used up the large number of eccentrics, so he had only obtained the technique to refine the puppet doll.
Lu Xiaotian snorted. He would never place his hopes on his enemy's mercy. He had just probed it a moment ago, and this copper puppet's strength was only comparable to his. After all, the Earth Splitter Blade was an extremely powerful Magic Tool, and the other party was only an early Fourth Grade Puppet Master.
This person had an accomplice, so he definitely couldn't delay any longer. Lu Xiaotian's brows furrowed. He stretched out his hand in the air, then suddenly flipped it over, and that huge copper puppet covered the area below.
The middle-aged man was just about to control the copper puppet to swing its hammer at Lu Xiaotian, when he saw the other party coldly spit out the words "Desolate Frost Seal". With a flip of his hand, a large ice seal several meters wide and covered in mysterious runes appeared out of thin air, smashing down from above. In the instant that the Desolate Frost Seal appeared, a thick layer of ice crystals appeared on the ground due to the strange cold brought about by the seal. Moreover, it quickly spread in all directions.
"Damn it, what kind of Magic Tool is this?" The middle-aged man shivered and hurriedly cast a Fire Spirit Barrier on himself to resist this strange cold. Although he was also a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he mainly focused on mechanical puppets, and most of his battle strength was above the copper puppet on his body. His body couldn't withstand this strange cold. He was certain that this large ice seal that appeared out of thin air was definitely not created by some Magic Tool. It was an extremely powerful Intermediate Grade Magic Tool. He had never seen it before. He had to break this large seal.
The middle-aged man clenched his teeth and controlled the copper puppet, smashing its hammer upwards, hitting the large ice seal.
With a loud boom, the heavy hammer seemed to have hit a small mountain. A thick layer of ice shattered on top of it, but the huge ice seal revolved with magic power, and the shattered ice grew back. The copper puppet held its hammer with both hands to block the Desolate Frost Seal. The puppet with incomparable strength was actually unable to send the large seal flying.
The Desolate Frost Seal of the Magic Bead's Magic Tool was indeed incomparably powerful. It could be instantly cast without any additional preparation. Lu Xiaotian's face flashed with a trace of satisfaction. The "Desolate Frost Seal" first consumed the magic power stored in the Magic Bead. Although he was in a deadlock with the opponent's copper puppet, the magic power in Lu Xiaotian's dantian was temporarily undamaged.
Of course, the copper puppet consumed the High Grade Spirit Stone between his eyebrows. The middle-aged man didn't consume any extra magic power for the time being, but he still needed to use his Divine Sense to control the copper puppet. But at this time, Lu Xiaotian, who had already separated his Secondary Primordial Spirit, was able to control the Desolate Frost Seal at the same time, and was completely capable of multitasking.
Whoosh! When the Desolate Frost Seal and the copper puppet were in a deadlock, the Earth Splitter turned into a golden light and directly chopped at the middle-aged man's forehead.
The middle-aged man was startled. He didn't expect Lu Xiaotian to be able to use such a powerful magic technique while still being able to control the extremely sharp golden blade without being affected at all. Although the copper puppet didn't consume his magic power, it still required his Divine Sense to control it. He still had the power to control other mechanical puppets, but he definitely couldn't do it as easily as the youth in front of him.
At this time, the copper puppet was suppressed by the Desolate Frost Seal and simply couldn't escape. The middle-aged man's expression changed greatly. He once again controlled the copper puppet to release a circle of yellow light, but the light couldn't block the Earth Splitter for even a moment and was pierced by the blade.
The middle-aged man had a panicked expression as he took out a short saber magic artifact to barely block the Earth Shattering Blade. However, as a Golem Master, he was still a little lacking when it came to using weapons to fight. Moreover, as he was distracted, the Copper Man Puppet's huge body was also suppressed by the World Ice Seal.
In the end, while the middle-aged man was distracted, the Earth Splitter pierced through his chest. The heavy corpse fell to the ground, but his Origin Spirit escaped from the lifeless body. "Brat, you destroyed my physical body and obtained my Thousand Bamboo School's secret technique. Even if you escape to the ends of the earth, the Thousand Bamboo School will find you and pull out your tendons and skin you alive!"
The middle-aged man's Origin Spirit ball was even faster than the Earth Splitter, so Lu Xiaotian couldn't catch up. Lu Xiaotian wasn't surprised by this situation. When mechanical puppet masters controlled puppets, their Origin Spirits were usually a bit stronger than cultivators of the same level. Moreover, unlike Qi Condensation cultivators, the Origin Spirits of Foundation Establishment cultivators had been greatly strengthened. After their physical body died, they could leave the body for a period of time. However, if they couldn't find a suitable body to possess during this time, they still wouldn't be able to escape the fate of having their soul scattered.
The Thousand Bamboo School had long been chased out of the Full Moon Cultivation World. If they wanted to kill their way back, they would have to see if the dozens of sects in the Full Moon Cultivation World agreed. Lu Xiaotian coldly snorted. As for revenge, the Thousand Bamboo School wasn't the only one looking for him. However, this Copper Man Puppet was quite good. Lu Xiaotian took the storage pouch from the middle-aged man's corpse and put the Copper Man Puppet into the storage pouch.
Although the battle was very intense, the process of it erupting was very short. Wang Yuan and another fellow disciple had been hit by the middle-aged man's methods and had been drugged with some aphrodisiac. After being frozen by Lu Xiaotian's Cold Desolate Seal, they quickly put on their clothes.
Wang Yuan's face was slightly bashful, and she looked at Lu Xiaotian with a hint of charm. Compared to her current Dao Companion, Lu Xiaotian was undoubtedly much stronger. However, what surprised her was that she felt that Lu Xiaotian looked somewhat familiar.
This woman's temperament was the same as before. In order to get what she wanted, she didn't hesitate to sacrifice her beauty. Lu Xiaotian's slight restlessness from before had now calmed down.
"Junior Apprentice Brother, what's wrong with you …" Not far away, two people flew over through the air. The one in the lead was a middle-aged man in a short-sleeved robe, and behind him was a man with skin similar to that of a middle-aged man with a sallow complexion.
"Sh * t, this guy's fellow disciple is here." Lu Xiaotian's expression changed slightly, and he immediately turned to leave.
Wang Yuan and the other woman were so scared that their beautiful faces turned pale. They didn't even have time to save the white-clothed man. The two of them looked at each other and then went their separate ways. If they split up, they might still be able to escape with their lives. If they stayed together, their chances of survival would be reduced by at least half.
