Chapter 2603 - 2603 Is the Old Turtle"s Arrangement? (2 in 1)
2603 Is the Old Turtle’s Arrangement? (2 in 1)
Han Fei believed that facing this defense mechanism, cultivators below the perfected Star Transformation Realm could just return home. Even perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators needed to work together to break through the array. Otherwise, it was impossible for them to cross it.
In the face of such a battle formation, in normal times, Han Fei would have been curious and wanted to test it out, but now, he wasn’t in the mood. Such a strong combination was better left to those who came later!
Han Fei burst out at full speed and broke through the blockade of these puppets with the advantage of speed.
At that moment, Han Fei felt a net-like mysterious Dao runes that seemed to be trying to block him, but it was a step slower. He unexpectedly escaped their blockade.
At first, these puppets tried to chase him, but in the blink of an eye, Han Fei was gone. Seeing that he was gone, they stopped chasing him. They seemed to know that they couldn’t catch up with him, so they didn’t have to waste their effort.
!!
In this battle formation, the only one who could keep up with Han Fei’s speed was the archer.
Even when he reached such a high speed, the other party could still shoot arrows with exceptional accuracy.
Han Fei’s face slightly changed. A level-seven mineral puppet?
Yes, Han Fei guessed right. To be able to keep up with his speed so easily, the other party couldn’t be a level-six mineral puppet.
At first, there was only one archer puppet attacking him. Then, two, three, and four appeared.
Han Fei’s speed was too fast for the level-six mineral puppets to stop him, so the level-seven mineral puppets took action.
At first, they were still attacking him from the top of some buildings, but later, when they found that they couldn’t kill Han Fei this way, they flew directly into the sky. As they flew, Han Fei counted carefully, and thirteen archer puppets suddenly appeared out of nowhere. If he continued to rush in, he might encounter even more.
He couldn’t go on like this. His direction of action had been locked down. G.o.d knew how many puppets would come to besiege him.
While Han Fei was running wildly, he subconsciously glimpsed that on this side of the river, many buildings had their gates open.
However, could this door be entered at will? Han Fei remembered that in the outer city, there were often some subtle settings inside the door. For example, the blue flames were mostly hidden in these buildings. Whenever someone dared to walk in the air, those flame arrows would appear.
However, some of the buildings Han Fei encountered now would be different. One was like a private house, and the other was like a commodity house. Han Fei made up his mind to enter first. As long as he avoided this wave, with his Twin Divine Technique, he should be able to get rid of all the puppets.
Buzz!
Han Fei casually rushed into a teahouse on the side of the road. Yes, when he came in, he recognized this to be a teahouse.
However, contrary to his imagination, Han Fei thought that there should be no one in this d.a.m.n place. But then he saw thirteen people sitting in the teahouse. Some were sitting at a table for two, some were sitting at a table for three, and some were sitting at a table for each person.
Tea and teapots were placed on the table in front of them.
There was tea in everyone’s cups, and it was f*cking hot and steaming.
Han Fei felt that his blood was freezing. A million years have pa.s.sed, and you’re telling me that the tea is hot? Are you kidding me?
Han Fei wondered if he would alarm these “tea guests” if he retreated now.
But at this moment, Han Fei saw a waiter walk out of the house. Yes, a puppet waiter, dragging a tray in one hand and holding a teapot in the other, looked at Han Fei.
Han Fei: “???”
After staring at each other for more than ten seconds, the waiter seemed to be getting impatient. And Han Fei seemed to read his meaning. He seemed to be asking, Where the h.e.l.l do you want to sit?
However, the teahouse was only so big and the tables were all occupied. Han Fei could only bite the bullet and share a table with the guy who occupied a table and was enjoying tea alone.
Seeing Han Fei sit down, the waiter came over with a teapot, arranged a tea set for Han Fei, and poured a cup of green tea. The fragrance of the tea was so strong that it conquered Han Fei’s taste buds.
But Han Fei didn’t drink it directly. Instead, he looked at the puppet tea drinker opposite him who was drinking tea alone. This guy actually nodded at him.
Han Fei: “???”
To be honest, Han Fei couldn’t figure it out at all. This thing was indeed a puppet! A puppet nodded at him? Could emotionless puppets communicate with intelligent creatures?
However, since this guy had nodded at him, he should nod back.
Therefore, Han Fei nodded at the puppet.
Han Fei thought to himself, Could it be that the Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree was too bored in the city before, so it made so many puppets with minerals?
Also, if there were so many puppets in a teahouse, wouldn’t there be countless such puppets in the residences and shops in the inner city?
At this moment, Han Fei really wanted to go back and inform Wushuang and the others not to enter. Even if a hundred thousand soldiers came in, they would still die.
However, it was certainly impossible for him to return. Besides, this phenomenon would soon be discovered if nothing went wrong. However, for some reason, these puppets weren’t hostile to outsiders at all.
“Sip! Ah~”
Han Fei took a sip of the green tea and his eyes lit up. He felt that his mind was relaxed and his soul was warmed up.
“Good tea.”
Han Fei couldn’t help but exclaim. However, a guy next to him picked up a teacup and gestured at Han Fei. It seemed that he thought Han Fei had good taste, so he wanted to clink cups with Han Fei.
Han Fei didn’t know what to say. You’re just a puppet. How can you drink tea?
However, Han Fei raised his cup in response, and the man really drank the tea.
The man continued to pour tea for him, only to find that there was no tea left in the teapot. He knocked on the table, and the waiter quickly appeared.
However, this time, the waiter didn’t refill his cup immediately. Instead, he made a gesture asking for money. The man touched his pocket and seemed a little embarra.s.sed, realizing that he was out of money. So, he looked at the pot of tea regretfully, got up, and walked out of the door. Han Fei watched him go out, but the moment he went out, he casually summoned a spear and a saber appeared at his waist. This guy turned into an armored soldier.
Han Fei: “???”
Han Fei was lost for words. So even puppets had to go to work! They had to make a living too! They would come over for tea after work, and when they ran out of money, they would go to work.
Wait, who the h.e.l.l is paying them salaries?
Han Fei wondered if the puppet would report about him after he went to work. At this time, Han Fei was not in the mood to drink tea. He drank the tea in one mouthful. As soon as he got up, all the tea guest puppets looked at him, and the waiter came to Han Fei with a grin.
Han Fei slowly took out a level-six mineral from his pocket, wanting to see the waiter’s reaction.
When he saw the waiter put on a stiff smile, he was secretly relieved. Sure enough, minerals were a hard currency in Puppet City!
After Han Fei took out the level-six minerals, no one was interested in him anymore. The puppets here all treated him as a tea drinker. Han Fei thought to himself, Should I just walk out and leave?
However, if he went out, he would have to transform. Would he still have to turn into a black fog if he went out? Would he be reported?
Therefore, Han Fei walked to the door, thought for a moment, and came back to sit down. The waiter came again and served Han Fei another pot of tea.
Han Fei pretended to enjoy the tea while closing his eyes in fascination.
Although Han Fei couldn’t descend on his Origin Star, he triggered the Demon Purification Pot and threw in a large number of level-six minerals.
After a while, a set of minerals appeared. Then, Han Fei refined a spear. But ordinary mineral puppets were restrained. They had to follow the team. It might be fine for them to be alone for a short period of time, but it would be strange if they stayed alone for a long time.
Therefore, Han Fei also refined a level-seven mineral armor, so that he could pretend to be an archer that could jump on the roof and fly.
In fact, Han Fei could also use the Technique of Infinite Transformations to transform into a puppet. However, he couldn’t have the aura of minerals, so if he really did it, he would be exposed when he went out.
This time, Han Fei spent another piece of mineral and came to the door. An armor battle suit appeared on his body. He extended his hand and held a spear in his hand. With a golden saber hanging on his waist, he looked like a puppet worker.
Han Fei was already prepared. If he was still discovered, it meant that pretending to be a puppet might not work.
However, when Han Fei walked out, he didn’t feel anything unusual. He didn’t even see the level-seven mineral archers.
“Huh? Are you leaving so soon?”
Han Fei immediately relaxed. However, when he turned around, he saw a archer puppet flash over his head. And not far away, Han Fei heard a familiar voice.
The voice roared, “Give me a break, you stupid puppets! How many times have I told you? I’m just a cat pa.s.sing by, understand? Stop chasing me!”
“Okay, this guy seems to be the same as me, relying on his speed to rush over. But when he came here, he found that there were level-seven mineral archers and ended up being crazily chased.”
Han Fei knew this feeling, but he didn’t pay attention to it. As it happened, w.a.n.g Xiaojiu’s appearance attracted the attention of others. Just now, when the archer swept over his head, he didn’t notice anything wrong. It seemed that he had succeeded in pretending to be a puppet.
At this time, a small team flew over from the road behind Han Fei. This was a mineral puppet team, which should be chasing w.a.n.g Xiaojiu.
When they pa.s.sed by Han Fei, the puppet in the lead glanced at him. Han Fei was about to watch the team leave, but not long after they pa.s.sed Han Fei, the team stopped and looked at Han Fei.
Han Fei: “???”
Immediately, Han Fei seemed to understand that they were asking him to follow the team.
Han Fei complained in his heart, Aren’t you a five-person team? Why are you dragging me along? Wouldn’t it be inharmonious to have an extra person?
But he had no choice. If he didn’t follow them, he would have to take down these five puppets in an instant. This wasn’t a big problem, but he was standing at the entrance of the teahouse now, and w.a.n.g Xiaojiu had just gone over, so there might be a lot of teams chasing after him.
With this in mind, Han Fei didn’t think much. He followed at the end of the team. Seeing Han Fei join in, the team set off again.
After only half an hour, they came to a large building. Han Fei followed the team to the building and found dozens of level-seven mineral archers and eight squads.
w.a.n.g Xiaojiu went in?
Han Fei was speechless. Do you know what this place is? At this moment, one of the archer puppets waved his hand and then his team was about to disperse, leaving only one archer puppet guarding this place.
The old turtle had taught him some ancient characters a long time ago, so when Han Fei saw the words “Advanced Strength Test” written on the building, he lost interest. This was a trial field. Of course, the trial field was used for trials. w.a.n.g Xiaojiu rushed in without knowing anything. Do you know this is a strength test?
Han Fei was too lazy to care about it. He just followed the team away.
Not long after his team returned the way they came, Han Fei looked around and found no one around. With a thought, he summoned a clone in a nearby alley.
In the corner alley, there was a flash of light, so the leader of the team led his team over to take a look.
Unfortunately, they were tricked. With Han Fei’s current strength, he suppressed the five puppets in the blink of an eye.
After collecting the bodies of the five puppets, Han Fei transformed into a level-seven archer puppet. Han Fei tentatively jumped onto the roof. After waiting for more than ten seconds, he didn’t find anyone attacking him with arrows. Immediately, Han Fei was overjoyed. It was true that pretending to be a puppet worked.
Since impersonation was useful, why should he slowly walk forward with his black-mist body? Besides, his black-mist body didn’t seem to be very useful in the inner city.
There was no telling if these puppets were born with keen senses or if it was because of some special circ.u.mstances, but the Twin Divine Technique didn’t have much effect on them.
After becoming a level-seven mineral puppet, Han Fei was relatively unscrupulous, because no puppets stopped him along the way.
Is this a loophole? Perhaps the builder of Puppet City didn’t think that puppets could be impersonated, so he didn’t guard against this?
Anyway, although he encountered many puppets along the way, none of them attacked him, which made Han Fei suspect that he was a puppet.
For some reason, Han Fei hurried along the way. Even if he didn’t move quickly, it only took him an hour to arrive at a strange building.
This building was a mountain-shaped building in the shape of a turtle. It was surrounded by water and no one was guarding it. The building molded the mountain into the shape of a turtle, which was very vivid. Many places were even painted with colors, making this mountain look like a huge turtle. This turtle stretched out its neck and looked up, seeming to be looking at the sky.
The building itself was only a hundred kilometers long. However, Han Fei didn’t believe in the outer s.p.a.ce of secret realms at all now. Who knew if there was another world inside?
Looking at the three words engraved under the neck of the giant turtle, Han Fei murmured, “G.o.d Gazing Cave? What is this place? Is there a G.o.d in Puppet City? Or can I see a G.o.d in this G.o.d Gazing Cave?”
On the neck of the mountain-like turtle, there was an entrance that could enter the inside of the turtle’s body.
However, Han Fei certainly didn’t enter rashly, because there was spiritual energy circulating in the water around the G.o.d Gazing Cave. If he guessed right, this should be a large array, which would be activated if anyone wanted to break in.
This time, Han Fei didn’t take it lightly. If he rashly barged into such an ancient array, G.o.d knew what kind of seals were here.
With a thought from Han Fei, a Flash Lizard appeared. Then, the Flash Lizard tried to cross the circular lake as quickly as possible and reach the G.o.d Gazing Cave.
However, when the Flash Lizard walked above the lake, it was immediately pressed into the lake by invisible gravity. As soon as the Flash Lizard entered the lake, there was immediately a splash. Then, Han Fei saw the Flash Lizard fall apart, turn into a few minerals, and sink to the bottom of the lake.
Han Fei: “…”
Han Fei knew that this place was dangerous, but he didn’t expect it to be so dangerous. The Flash Lizard was not weak, but it died before it could even cross half a meter.
A gravity array? No, if it was a gravity array, there should be at least some resistance. Making the Flash Lizard fall straight down, it was a complete suppression, sealing the speed and power of the Flash Lizard. This was not something an ordinary array could do. Also, with a splash of water, the Flash Lizard fell apart. Han Fei felt that he had good eyesight. But he only felt a trace of the Great Dao of Water just now and nothing else.
Han Fei’s eyes flashed. Laws. There was a law of no-fly, a law of water, and maybe even a law he didn’t know. Anyway, if he entered rashly, he would definitely die.
“d.a.m.n it, did the old turtle come to this place to rebuild his body?”
Han Fei was not afraid at all when he should press forward, but when he shouldn’t, he would never press forward.
He took out his fis.h.i.+ng rod and said casually, “Even if I can’t get in, can’t the old turtle? Isn’t he familiar with the Great Monarch Mystic Martial? Since he’s familiar with her, he should know the way in, right?”
Activating the Great Dao of Time and the Time Fis.h.i.+ng Technique, Han Fei’s fis.h.i.+ng hook broke through the void. However, he felt something strange. He didn’t know if it was because he was too close to the G.o.d Gazing Cave, but he failed to fish the old turtle over even after using the Time Fis.h.i.+ng Technique nearly a hundred times.
Logically speaking, this was impossible. With the power of the Time Fis.h.i.+ng Technique, not to mention the old turtle, even a Monarch could be pulled over. Of course, only when the Monarch was willing to come over.
With his relations.h.i.+p with the old turtle, it was impossible for the latter not to come over. Then there was only one possibility. For some special reason, he couldn’t fish the old turtle over.
On second thought, although the old turtle couldn’t be fished over, he should be able to catch his own clone, right? His peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm clone entered Puppet City with the old turtle. If he had seen how the old turtle entered, he must have been able to figure out a way to enter the G.o.d Gazing Cave.
This time, the hook broke through the air again, and it took him more than a dozen times to fish his clone.
The moment this clone was fished over, Han Fei immediately felt that the information began to synchronize. When the old turtle and his clone entered Puppet City, the words “Puppet City” had suppressed his clone.
Then, they entered the inner city. The old turtle said that he knew the location of the G.o.d Gazing Cave, so he walked all the way here. At that time, there were already many puppets along the way, but at that time, the puppets were purely statues. Even when they crossed the outer river, there were no mineral puppets patrolling at all.
Because the old turtle’s goal was very clear, they didn’t even take a detour along the way, so their journey went smoothly and they came straight to the G.o.d Gazing Cave.
In front of the G.o.d Gazing Cave, the old turtle said to the Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree that had turned into a little treeman, “Little Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng, from what I know of Mystic Martial, it’s very likely that the jade transformation technique of your Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree lineage is preserved. This means that your jade transformation technique is very likely to be in the Mystic Martial’s sleeping chamber.”
The Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree replied, “No matter if I can continue cultivating or not, no one is allowed to enter the sleeping chambers of Great Monarch Mystic Martial easily.”
The old turtle said, “What if the Tortoise never returns? Then what’s the meaning of the existence of this chamber?”
The Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree said, “One day, Great Monarch Mystic Martial will return. Even if she can’t return, a new Mystic Martial will appear one day and he will embark on the path of a Monarch. At that time, he will be the master of Puppet City, so he can inherit the sleeping chambers of Great Monarch Mystic Martial.”
The old turtle smiled and said, “I reconstruct my body with the bloodline of the Mystic Martial. Strictly speaking, once I succeed, I will be the new Mystic Martial. If I become a Monarch, won’t this Puppet City be mine?”
The Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree replied, “Yes.”
Han Fei didn’t expect this answer, so the Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree didn’t follow Great Monarch Mystic Martial himself, but the bloodline of Great Monarch Mystic Martial. It didn’t matter who the Great Monarch Mystic Martial was. What mattered was that this bloodline was continuing.
The old turtle had inherited this bloodline. If he became a Monarch, wouldn’t he be the new Great Monarch Mystic Martial?
Han Fei thought to himself, Did the old turtle know this long ago, so he wanted to come to the northern mining area to find the Mine Demon Stream? With Han Fei’s understanding of the old turtle, it was very likely to be true. This guy was after Mystic Martial’s inheritance.
However, Han Fei could understand that once the old turtle succeeded, he might be qualified to challenge the guy in the G.o.dfiend Sea. At that time, even if he was a clone, he wouldn’t be swallowed by his original body.
After that, the old turtle stopped talking and said, “Han Fei, this river is called the G.o.d Drowning River. The river water is dug from the depths of the Sea of Stars and can be integrated with many laws. Therefore, this river water is active and extremely corrosive. No one below the Monarch level can resist it. Therefore, you have to follow me closely later.”
The Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng Tree said, “He can’t go in.”
The old turtle said, “No, Little Demon Vanquis.h.i.+ng. He’s just a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm clone. No matter how strong he is, his strength is limited. As for me, I only trust him. I can guarantee that he won’t enter the G.o.d Gazing Cave. Besides, with you around, he can’t do anything.”
When the old turtle said this, he glanced at Han Fei casually.
Han Fei immediately understood that the old turtle was leaving a way for him. He guessed that he would enter Puppet City, and he also knew that he could use the Time Fis.h.i.+ng Art, so he left a way for him.
Han Fei was refreshed. Did the old turtle know what would happen? So he left a way for him in advance.
So, the answer to everything was in the G.o.d Gazing Cave?
