Chapter Thirty-Six: Escaping the Predicament

  ♂?,,

  "Ahhh..." A tearing sound filled the air, and a flying sword stopped in mid-air above Qing Yi. The disciple who had cast the sword gazed down at Qing Yi with a pale face, almost falling off his sword. If Qing Yi were to wake up, he would surely recognize this disciple as Qing Xue.

  "How could it be, how could it be her!!" Qing Xue looked at the green-robed figure lying on the ground in a daze. This time, she had entered the secret realm mainly to inherit the legacy, but now, seeing the inheritance fall into someone else's hands, even Qing Xue felt a surge of jealousy in her heart. Possessing the secret realm's legacy would not only instantly elevate one's status within the Puppet Sect to at least that of the Sect Master, but also possibly reach the Dan Yuan stage, controlling fourth-level puppets, with strength enough to dominate the Western cultivation world.

  Although the first and second grade puppets were not in Qingxue's eyes, the snake that was previously refined was also intentional, and it was not taken seriously. After all, a second-grade puppet would not exceed the gathering period even if it was strong, and it was like nothing to her. However, there is a world of difference between fourth-grade puppets and second or third-grade puppets. Fourth-grade puppets possess divine wisdom and will protect themselves, flying in the sky and entering the earth with unparalleled power, their strength comparable to that of a strong infant.

  Staring at Qing Yi, a murderous intent appeared in Qing Xue's eyes, and the spiritual sword under her feet burst out with a sharp sword aura.

  "It's all over, this is the will of heaven, I never thought it would be her. Although I have left the Puppet Sect, after all, I am also a member of the Puppet Sect... It seems that I can only go find the Corpse Blood Flower." Qing Xue sighed, if she had known earlier, Qing Xue was afraid that when she saw Qing Yi, she would have killed her on the spot. After all, the temptation of the Puppet Sect's secret realm was too great. Sighing a few times, Qing Xue left. She didn't know that Blood Shadow's eyes were always staring at her, and if she launched an attack on Qing Yi, she would probably suffer from Blood Shadow's counterattack to protect his master.

  Kui Zong, Kui Tianfeng, the seated several peak masters and sect masters simultaneously opened their eyes wide, none of them failing to reveal shock, surprise, and excitement, their faces twisted with agitation.

  "Ancestors, heaven pities our clan!" The patriarch of the puppet clan knelt on both knees, gazing up at the sky with eyes that were red from shouting, and the other eleven peak masters did the same. They had waited for this day for too long, far too long. And now that the secret realm inheritance was about to begin, it undoubtedly gave the puppet clan, which had almost fallen into despair, a glimmer of hope. Once the patriarch's time was up, the puppet clan would inevitably face attacks from countless large and small sects. It was likely that the puppet clan would be erased from the cultivation world.

  "Pass down the order, gather all the disciples of the Puppet Sect and pay respects to the Young Master!" The sect master of the Puppet Sect shouted loudly, his voice echoing like thunder in the Puppet Heaven Peak and the surrounding mountain peaks.

  Outside the secret realm, Gui Zong saw a glimmer of hope. Lie Teng's heart was also filled with joy at this moment. The spiritual energy emitted by this magic bottle was extremely pure, even more so than the mid-grade spirit stones in his storage bag. He frantically absorbed the spiritual energy, which poured into his meridians and converged into his dantian. It seemed as if this magic bottle was an inexhaustible source of spiritual energy.

  Three months later, Lie Teng opened his eyes and looked at the sealed bottle still emitting spiritual energy. A smile involuntarily appeared on the corner of his mouth. At this time, Lie Teng's dantian was already filled with pure spiritual energy, a speed that he had never dared to imagine before. However, Lie Teng did not plan to break through to the fourth layer of Jiling at this place. He calculated the time and found that there were only fifteen days left before the secret realm closed. If he broke through to the fourth layer, he might miss the opportunity, which would be a regrettable mistake. Immediately, Lie Teng carefully put the sealed bottle into his storage bag. He knew that such an item could not be revealed, and if it got out, it would make all the disciples of the Gui Sect jealous. The principle of "a poor man is innocent but will be blamed for possessing a precious jade" was something Lie Teng deeply understood.

  He immediately drew out the crimson spirit sword, and spiritual energy surged into the sword. The sword emitted a faint glow and rang out with a clear tone as Lieteng's thoughts controlled it to attack the giant boulder blocking the cave entrance. At this time, Lieteng's attacks were even more fierce, and his divine sense could already envelop an area of over a thousand meters. The increase in his cultivation brought him an unprecedented feeling of comfort, as if the power throughout his body could shatter massive rocks.

  After a while, Lie Teng shattered the last boulder and his sword flew out of the cave. He looked around and his expression changed slightly. The corpse that was over 10 feet tall was now about 100 meters away from Lie Teng, walking back and forth. At this time, the corpse was almost completely exposed, with dry bloodstains on its body, stiffly waving a 7-foot long sword.

  Lie Teng saw this and hastily mounted his sword to quickly escape the place, lest he get entangled in a deep trouble. At the critical moment when the secret realm was about to close, Lie Teng did not dare to be careless.

  "Huh?" Not long after flying, Lie Teng discovered that there were several incomplete corpses lying on the ground below. Lie Teng took a closer look and furrowed his brow. Among the corpses below was Qing Feng, Qing Qing, Qing Wei, Qing Ze, as well as the puppet scorpion that had been killed. Seeing that Qing Yi was not among them, Lie Teng let out a sigh of relief. Qing Yi is fine!! This made Lie Teng feel very relieved. As for the scorpion, Lie Teng didn't even consider it, those first and second level puppets were of no great use.

  Turning his head to gaze out at the endless expanse in all directions, a sudden thought burst forth in his mind. Since Qing Yi was fine, why not engage in a battle with this Corpse Puppet now? After all, there were still over ten days until the Secret Realm closed, and he had already reached the peak of the third layer of Gathering Spirit. This gave him the confidence to face off against the Corpse Puppet, and even if he couldn't emerge victorious, he could still retreat unharmed.

  After a moment of contemplation, Lie Teng leaped down from the crimson spirit sword, infusing spiritual energy into the sword. The sword emitted a faint glow and a clear ringing sound. With a thought, the sword shot towards the giant corpse with a "whooshing" sound. Lie Teng also took out the Heaven-Defying Shield, ready to block any powerful attack at any time, and rushed rapidly towards the giant corpse.

  The crimson spirit sword struck the giant corpse's head, leaving a gash. The giant corpse let out a scream as it was attacked and swung its own spirit sword at the crimson one. However, under Lie Ting's control, the crimson spirit sword darted around the corpse with agility, like a fish in water. Lie Ting slowed down his pace when he was still ten zhang away from the corpse, cautiously closing in. His soul power had already begun to circulate within him, ready to burst out at any moment.

  "Bang!" As the Ling Sword carved more wounds on the corpse, it became increasingly impatient, constantly letting out loud wails, as if in a state of extreme rage. Meanwhile, Lie Teng was already within five zhangs of distance from the corpse, his hand holding the Heaven-Defying Shield covered in sweat. Suddenly, the massive corpse turned around and swung at the Scarlet Spirit Sword, and Lie Teng didn't hesitate to release a Soul-Calling attack aimed at the top of the corpse's head.

  "Ahhh..." The mournful cry echoed through the sky, and the corpse puppet suddenly turned around. Its originally calm eyes were filled with anger. It gave up attacking the Scarlet Spirit Sword and instead charged towards Lie Teng. Lie Teng's heart skipped a beat as he stretched out his right hand, and five Soul Guides flew out from his fingers, shooting towards the corpse puppet's abdomen. The previous Soul Guide was just Lie Teng probing to see which part of the corpse puppet was its weakness. The Soul Guide had pierced through the corpse puppet's skull without any effect, leading Lie Teng to conclude that its weak point must also be its abdominal Danhai.
