Chapter 456: Chapter 65: The True Power of the Tier Four Human Puppet

“It is precisely the ’Soul-Devouring Guide’ obtained from the hands of Master Qianye,

This is an extremely vicious object, capable of corrupting a cultivator’s divine soul. For ordinary Core Formation cultivators, if affected by this, at best their divine soul will be damaged, losing their foundation, and at worst, their soul will be scattered and they will perish.

Under this sneak attack, Master Tianci was not the least bit flustered, instead, the disappointment in his eyes grew stronger, and he couldn’t help but shout angrily:

“You rebellious disciple, how dare you deceive your master and betray your ancestors!”

His voice was like the great bell of Hongtong, carrying a touch of the authority of a Peak Core Formation cultivator, making everyone present feel pressure.

At the same time, Master Tianci’s figure rapidly retreated, suddenly appearing dozens of zhang away.

Simultaneously, mana surged at Master Tianci’s fingertips as he pointed at himself. The next moment, a light flashed,

A layer of gray-blue armor instantly covered his entire body.

Zhou Xun looked intently and saw it was exactly the same as the armor he had seen on that Tier Four Human Puppet before,

“This Human Puppet can actually fuse with a cultivator’s own body!”

Zhou Xun couldn’t help being greatly surprised.

He originally thought that this Tier Four Human Puppet was merely a puppet with the power of the Nascent Soul Stage, but now it seems not so simple.

At this moment, Master Tianci’s body was covered with Spirit Armor, his aura extremely intimidating, as if it transcended the usual limit!

It seems to be “Nascent Soul Stage”!

“Could it be… after this Human Puppet fuses with a cultivator, it can directly enhance the cultivator’s own combat power to Tier Four level!”

Controlling a puppet and possessing something oneself are two completely different concepts.

In other words, the current Master Tianci, unless he voluntarily removes the Human Puppet, would be believed to be a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator by anyone.

“It seems I’ve underestimated the power of that Human Puppet, and also underestimated the origin of Tianhan City!”

Just then, the black light also struck Master Tianci. The gray-blue Spirit Armor flashed with light and extinguished that black light.

For Core Formation cultivators, the ’Soul-Devouring Guide’ is a hard-to-handle poison, but for Nascent Soul level, it is easily extinguished.

Seeing this scene, Master Qianchuan was full of disbelief, his whole person was stunned, his face ashen,

Looking at the extremely angry Master Tianci before him, Master Qianchuan couldn’t help but kowtow and beg for mercy:

“Master, spare me… disciple was wrong!”

Seeing his master unmoved, he hurriedly turned his gaze towards Master Xingyue and others in the distance:

“It’s Master Xingyue!”

“It’s him!”

“He’s the one who instigated me, ’Soul-Devouring Guide’ was given to me by Master Qianye!”

Star-Master Xingyue was shocked to hear this. Previously, he still had the thought of competing with Tianhan City and Master Tianci, but after a magical combat with Zhou Xun,

He finally saw his true strength,

So he hurriedly denied,

“Daoist Brother Tianci, please do not misunderstand, this person is merely biting randomly!”

Hearing this, Master Tianci looked deeply at Star-Master Xingyue and others, then said coldly:

“The words of a rebellious disciple, I naturally will not believe!”

Then looking toward Master Qianchuan, his tone was indifferent:

“Ji Wujiu, your life was personally saved by me, today I will take it back, do you have any objections?”

“Master… don’t… spare me!”

Master Qianchuan kowtowed like a pounding garlic, hoping Master Tianci could spare him.

But if such a being who betrays his master and destroys his ancestors cannot be punished, the people of Tianhan City would lose heart!

You could see him raising his right hand slightly, a light flashing slightly,

Then a gigantic mana hand, dozens of feet in size, condensed above,

Ji Wujiu sensed this and understood that his master would not forgive him; he immediately operated his mana, trying to escape using escape techniques!

Just as he was about to fly out, he felt a strong spiritual pressure pinning him to the spot, unable to move!

“Go!”

With a light shout from Master Tianci, that crimson gigantic mana hand descended from the sky, pinning Master Qianchuan Ji Wujiu underneath,

Then a pale yellow flame ignited,

Cries of pain rang out, and then there was no more sound,

After the big hand dissipated, Ji Wujiu’s figure was nowhere to be found, only leaving a storage bag and a small pile of ashes.

He was thus turned into dust!

“Is this Master Tianci’s true strength!”

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone present was utterly silent,

Master Qianchuan, despite being a cultivator at the peak of Early Core Formation stage, and coming from the tutelage of Master Tianci, was only marginally inferior to an average middle-stage Core Formation cultivator.

Yet such a figure, under Master Tianci’s hand, was like an ant, with no means of resistance, wiped out with a casual strike.

“Thank you all for witnessing this!” After dealing with Master Qianchuan, Master Tianci’s enthusiasm was evidently low,

After all, raising him from a young age, once cultivating him as a successor, only to be betrayed like this, was naturally very hurtful.

“We wouldn’t dare, we wouldn’t dare. Master Tianci’s execution of a traitor is truly delightful for us all!”

Star-Master Xingyue and others said with a forced smile.

Having just seen Master Tianci display his true strength, Star-Master Xingyue and several others couldn’t help but sweat profusely.

If Master Tianci had harbored a killing intent toward them, they would likely have perished already.

Soon, everyone dispersed.

…

Xing Huai’an and Zhou Jingsong stayed behind in Tianhan City, as they still wanted to visit Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun’s cave mansion was also on the thirty-sixth floor, right next to Master Tianci’s.

The reception hall,

“Disciple pays respect to Master!”

Seeing Zhou Xun, Zhou Jingsong respectfully bowed down,

At this time, Zhou Jingsong’s aura was more and more stable, and there was an aura of authority from being in a high position for a long time, which was a change since he had been in charge of the Wangchuan Immortal City,

Not only that, but his alchemy skill had also improved, reaching the Tier Two Middle-Grade level. According to Zhou Xun’s estimate, the possibility of further improvement was not very high unless he had an epiphany,

Otherwise, Tier Two Middle-Grade Alchemist was his limit.

In addition to that, his cultivation had also reached the middle-stage of Foundation Establishment,

Zhou Xun was quite satisfied with this, after all, Zhou Jingsong’s talent was mediocre, just a Low-Grade Spirit Root.

“Jingsong, you’ve done well, managing the affairs of Wangchuan Lake without neglecting cultivation!”

“When you return this time, tell your fellow disciples that as long as you all cultivate to the peak of Foundation Establishment, I will at least support each of you with a Crystal Condensing Pill!”

Zhou Xun said with a smile.

Zhou Jingsong was overjoyed to hear this,

The Crystal Condensing Pill is the best spiritual object for Core Formation, enough to increase the probability of Core Formation by thirty percent. This way, even he has a chance to pursue the Great Path of Core Formation in the future.

Xing Huai’an, on the side, couldn’t help but be envious upon hearing this.

One must know that back in the White Cloud Immortal City, only he was qualified to take the Crystal Condensing Pill, and his junior sister Yuan Pan’er is still stuck at the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Zhou Xun’s eyesight was sharp, and he instantly noticed Xing Huai’an’s abnormality. Thinking a little, he understood his thoughts.

After pondering for a moment, he said:

“Senior Sister Pan’er’s talent is extraordinary, and she was extremely kind to me in the past. I have an extra Crystal Condensing Pill here, and I would trouble Senior Brother to give it to Senior Sister!”

Saying so, he patted the storage bag, took out a delicate pill bottle, and handed it to Xing Huai’an.
