"Whoosh!"
Sure enough, as soon as Qin Xiao and Ye Qiu entered the forest, two puppets came out at the same time.
They suddenly attacked from two directions and launched a fierce attack on Qin Xiao and Ye Qiu with their sharp swordsmanship.
The swordsmanship followed suit, and the mighty power came down to heaven and earth.
Moreover, Qin Xiao found that the strength of these two puppets was similar to the puppet he had encountered before, but their strengths were different.
Moreover, the immortal skills and secret skills they used were also different. The puppet Qin Xiao encountered before was very good at swordsmanship and had very high attainments in swordsmanship. It used the sword as the edge, which posed a certain threat to Qin Xiao.
However, these two puppets were not the same. One was good at strength, and the other was good at speed.
They encountered three puppets, and each of them had different means.
Logically speaking, puppets were refined in batches. In fact, it would be much easier if they were all given the same power. If they were given different means of power, it would obviously be much more complicated.
However, Qin Xiao did not think too much about these problems. As the supreme existences in Huaxia, the power that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors possessed was certainly far beyond his imagination.
Fortunately, there were only two puppets, so it was not difficult for Qin Xiao and Ye Heqiong to deal with them.
The two of them could deal with one puppet each, so they could suppress them.
Moreover, the two of them did not linger in the battle. They kept moving forward, but soon, another puppet came out, forming a situation of three against two.
If it was three against two, the situation seemed a little difficult.
Qin Xiao only used the power of his Inner World and did not use any other means. Ye Heyu also held back. Both of them did not use their full strength, so naturally, they felt a little suppressed.
Fortunately, both of them were protected by high-grade immortal armors, which were very good in terms of physical defense.
The two of them continued to move forward. As they moved forward, another puppet came out, forming a situation of four against two.
When each of them had two puppets, the situation became even more difficult.
Even though Qin Xiao was using the power of his inner world, it was still difficult for him to effectively suppress the two puppets.
"Fellow Daoist Qin Xiao, from the looks of it, these puppets should be guarding different areas. Whichever area you enter, the puppets will attack you."
"From the looks of it, we are not far from here. If we continue forward, there will likely be another puppet joining us. That means that we will have to face at least five puppets in the end."
"I'm already at my limit. If Fellow Daoist Qin Xiao has any other tricks up his sleeve, please don't hold them back," Ye Heqiong said.
Qin Xiao replied, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Since it's a cooperation, we'll naturally do our best. Let's continue moving forward."
The two of them moved forward and entered the final region. Once they passed through this region, they would reach the front of the stone platform.
As long as he could reach the stone platform and obtain the Immortal Badge Fragment, he would be considered victorious, and would be able to leave this place immediately.
That meant that he had passed the test.
It was too strenuous for the two of them to face the attacks of five puppets.
Ye Heqiong continuously unleashed immortal arts and secret arts. Her battle prowess skyrocketed.
However, these puppets weren't afraid of death, nor would they be injured. Their bodies were too strong. Thus, suppressing those puppets was simply too difficult.
Qin Xiao still didn't use any other tricks. He was still holding on.
"Fellow Daoist Qin Xiao, if we continue to drag this out, it will be very disadvantageous for us."
"That's why we need to come up with a strategy. I can see that Fellow Daoist Qin Xiao's strength, defense, and speed are all very good. Your offensive power is a bit lacking, but your self-preservation skills aren't bad. "
"Since we're here for the Immortal Badge Fragment, why don't we do this? Fellow Daoist Qin Xiao, you hold off these puppets while I go ahead and grab the Immortal Badge Fragment. "
"As long as we get the Immortal Badge Fragment, we should be considered to have passed the test. Those puppets shouldn't attack us anymore."
"If we don't do this, I'm afraid both of us will be injured if the battle drags on. That'll be bad."
"The first test is already so difficult. I think it's also a test of our ability to work together. If we don't work together, it's almost impossible to defeat five puppets alone. "
Ye Heqiong suddenly suggested. Qin Xiao didn't have any objections to this suggestion. He nodded in agreement. "Alright, then we'll do as you say."
"That's true. If this drags on, it won't be good for us."
"We can only win this test if we work together."
"You go get the Immortal Badge Fragment. I'll hold off these puppets."
Ye Heqiong smiled at Qin Xiao's agreement. "Fellow Daoist Qin Xiao, don't worry. We've already made a deal. This Immortal Badge Fragment belongs to you. I'll get it first and give it to you later. "
Qin Xiao didn't reject the offer. Instead, he said, "Okay!"
The two discussed the battle plan and worked hard to create an opportunity.
Soon, a good opportunity was created.
After all, these were puppets. Although they were very strong, they weren't real life and didn't have high intelligence like living beings.
Therefore, these puppets naturally didn't have any tricks up their sleeves. When Qin Xiao and Ye Heqiong plotted against them, they revealed some flaws. This was exactly what they needed.
Qin Xiao suddenly rushed forward and tore an opening with his powerful force.
The breakthrough in his realm made the power of his inner world enough to suppress a fourth-step Celestial Venerable of the Extreme Level.
The power of his inner world alone was enough.
At this time, Qin Xiao completely unleashed the power of his inner world in his swordsmanship. Combined with the power of the Immortal Dao, the power of the Immortal Arts, and the sharpness of his swordsmanship, the four forces burst out together. The lethality was naturally very terrifying.
If it weren't for the fact that the puppets' bodies were too strong and their defensive abilities were too strong, Qin Xiao's sword could've injured one of them.
Qin Xiao could've beaten the puppet back with a sword, but he couldn't hurt it much.
Of course, it was also because Qin Xiao couldn't perfectly fuse all these forces together.
Therefore, the power displayed was naturally greatly reduced.
Even so, it was enough for Qin Xiao to forcibly tear an opening.
The line of defense of the two puppets was broken by Qin Xiao. Ye Heqiong was already prepared, so she rushed out without any hesitation.
Ye Heqiong obviously had some hidden tricks up his sleeves as well, as he instantly burst out with incredible speed.
Almost as if she had teleported, she rushed out of the opening. In an instant, she had left the encirclement of the five puppets and reached the stone platform.
The five puppets didn't chase after Ye Heqiong. Instead, they all surrounded Qin Xiao.
Well, it seemed that as long as she rushed out of this area and reached the stone platform, the puppets would stop chasing her and she would pass their test.
At this time, Qin Xiao had to fight the five puppets alone, so it was naturally very difficult for him.
Fortunately, the power of his inner world was relatively pure and powerful. If he used this power to protect himself, he could temporarily hold on.
Ye Heqiong reached out and took the Immortal Writ Fragment. With the fragment in her hand, Ye Heqiong burst into laughter.
"Haha, I got it!" Ye Heqiong was ecstatic. She didn't expect to get the first Immortal Writ fragment so easily.
After getting the Immortal Writ fragment, Ye Heqiong's lips curled into a strange and evil smile. She glanced at Qin Xiao and rushed toward the passage door.
Obviously, she wanted to leave with the Immortal Writ fragment and didn't care about Qin Xiao's life or death.
Her ugly face was finally revealed.
"Haha, fool, you actually believed me so easily. Hmph, do you think this Young Master is so kind? Do you think I would share something like the Immortal Writ fragment with you? "
"Hmph, now that the Immortal Writ fragment is in my hands, it's mine. Why would I give it to you?"
Ye Heqiong sneered in her heart. She didn't expect Qin Xiao to fall for her trick so easily and follow her plan.
The Immortal Writ fragment couldn't have come more easily.
Ye Heqiong walked towards the door. As long as she could enter the door, she would be able to proceed to the next test.
But just as Ye Heqiong was about to rush into the passage door, a figure walked out of the void and blocked her way.
When she saw the figure in front of her, Ye Heqiong's expression changed greatly. She was shocked.
The figure in front of her was none other than Qin Xiao!
It was Qin Xiao!
How was this possible?
Ye Heqiong couldn't help but widen her eyes. She looked at Qin Xiao in front of her, then back at Qin Xiao who was still surrounded by the five puppets.
Two Qin Xiao?
"Qin Xiao, you actually came to participate in the test with both your original body and avatar? Don't you know this is against the rules? Your qualifications will be revoked. "After Ye Heqiong recovered from her shock, she immediately sneered and said.
Naturally, one couldn't participate in the test with both their original body and avatar at the same time. That would be cheating.
Although the Sacred Emperor's messenger didn't say it explicitly, it was still common knowledge.
"Hmph, are you sure that both my original body and avatar are moving at the same time? Take a closer look, "Qin Xiao said with a sneer.
What?
Not both the original body and avatar?
Ye Heqiong was startled once more. He took a closer look and found that there was indeed something going on.
On the other side, Qin Xiao, who was surrounded by the five puppets, suddenly turned into nothingness and disappeared into the void.
He directly turned into nothingness and disappeared.
After the five puppets looked at each other for a moment, they dispersed.
Obviously, the situation was as they guessed. As long as they passed through the area, the puppets would stop chasing and they would be considered to have passed the test.
Now that the test was passed, only the battle between Qin Xiao and Ye Heqiong was left.
"It's just a dual body technique. Young Master Ye Heqiong, don't tell me you don't even know this?" Qin Xiao sneered and stared at Ye Heqiong.
"Dual body technique?" Ye Heqiong was slightly taken aback. Although he didn't know about the Dual Body Technique, from the name of the technique, he could guess what kind of secret technique it was.
He did know of such a Secret Technique, but it was very difficult to cultivate such a Secret Technique to perfection.
He didn't expect that Qin Xiao would succeed.
Ye Heqiong's face darkened, her eyes cold, and she looked at Qin Xiao fiercely, "Hmph, Qin Xiao, it seems that you already knew I was scheming against you, so you were prepared. Well, it's no wonder that you agree with everything I say. There's nothing strange about it.
You've always done as I said. "
"You fooled me. I really thought that you had taken the bait. I didn't expect you to hide so deeply. "
