2598 Puppets in Puppet City (2 in 1)
For the northern expedition army, it was too easy to enter Puppet City. Furthermore, they had been driven in by the Bloody Hand Mine Devils, so they were inevitably afraid and didn’t dare to do whatever they wanted here.

Besides, Puppet City was divided into inner and outer cities. In the past, too many cities had such a layout, so everyone took it for granted.

Although it was an outer city, it wasn’t without old sites. For example, the statues were made of minerals. It would be a lie to say that they weren’t tempted. How many mine demons had to be killed to obtain such a large piece of mineral?

But here, along the road, there was a statue placed on the side of the road every once in a while, like a street lamp. In the huge outer city, there were tens of thousands of statues. If they could really take them, they would make a fortune.

The factions here formed their respective exploration teams. Outside, everyone could work together, but now that they seemed to have entered a certain inheritance ground, the most trustworthy was naturally their own people.

The outer city, which was originally only 50,000 kilometers wide, didn’t seem empty after so many teams were scattered at once.

After they split up, the first thing they did was try to collect the statues.

As everyone expected, the reason why Puppet City was called Puppet City was that it used puppets as an army. And what were puppets? These statues were.

Many people had guessed it, but they still couldn’t hold back their greed.

Not long after the team dispersed, someone took action. At the moment the person took action, the statue seemed to come back to life and suddenly thrust the spear in its hand.

Puppets made entirely of level-five minerals were actually very strong. Their bodies might not be as tough as the Bloody Hand Mine Devil’s, but they could mobilize the power of the mineral and burst out an unimaginable piercing force.

Besides, unlike outsiders like Han Fei, these statues would not be restricted by the power of the city. Their movements were not sluggish at all, and once they attacked, they could unleash their strongest power.

A perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator punched out. He thought that even though the puppet was made of level-five minerals, its level was still too low to shake him.

However, with a bang, his entire arm exploded. He had neglected one thing. Although this city didn’t restrict them much, it limited twenty to thirty percent of their strength. Besides, they couldn’t use the power of the Heavenly Dao or some special techniques here. As a result, his strength no longer stood out.

This person’s arm exploded, and the power of the battle between the two sides didn’t spread in the void. The mysterious line on the ground burst out with a faint light, and all the power that escaped was absorbed by the ground, including the shattered flesh and blood of the cultivator.

This person’s expression changed drastically. “Not good. These puppets are very strong and have almost the highest grasp of strength. Everyone, find the flaws of the puppets. Don’t fight them with brute force.”

The perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator didn’t panic. He moved and his arm condensed again. Since his attack failed, he changed his combat thinking and used his Great Dao to bombard the puppet with a fist mark.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator’s eyes suddenly lit up. “These puppets aren’t fast enough. They only have very strong explosive power.”

This person made his judgment while fighting. He punched nearly a hundred times in a row, and all the joints of the puppet were sluggish. This made him overjoyed. He could beat this puppet!

Just as this person circled behind the puppet and tried to take off the puppet’s head, the head turned 180 degrees and stared straight at him. Then, the puppet’s eyes turned bloodshot as it spewed out a fiery sword beam.

“Pfft!”

A big hole was left in the perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator’s chest. Just as he was about to retreat, the puppet had already turned its hands over and thrust the spear in its hand. In the next moment, the perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator’s expression changed drastically as he retreated because there was more than one puppet on this street.

“Puff ~”

Another puppet attacked, and a spear beam burst out. Because his strength was limited and the distance was too close, this perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator failed to dodge and his body was pierced through again.

Seeing that someone was about to come over to help, the perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator shouted, “Don’t come over.”

Yes, this was his first judgment. Although he was injured, he was far from dead. He unleashed his Qi and blood, twisted his body, and ignored the puppet behind him. What he needed to do now was to kill the first puppet. Only by finding out the real strength of this puppet could he make a countermeasure. Otherwise, if a peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivator came, he would have no chance to escape if he was besieged by a few puppets.

Those who survived in the Infinite Mining Areas all had abundant combat experience. As long as their enemy wasn’t overwhelmingly strong, they had endless combat methods.

The man rushed forward and activated his Great Dao. As for his palm, this time, he used his palm as a fist and slapped the puppet. The power of his unique Great Dao surged into the puppet’s body.

Boom ~

The puppet was instantly torn into pieces. It was made of level-five minerals after all. Facing a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator with extremely rich combat experience, even if it could fight, it was still no match for him.

Of course, it was also very difficult for a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator to beat such a puppet in one blow. But as long as one grasped the knack, it wouldn’t be so difficult.

The cultivator put on a smile, wondering how much this puppet was worth.

However, just as he felt that he had won and focused his attention on the puppet behind, he suddenly felt the threat of death.

“Watch out.”

In the blink of an eye, a soul sword burst out of the collapsed puppet’s body. Because they were too close, this cultivator couldn’t dodge at all and his head was instantly blown up by this sword light.

Bang!

This person’s soul power dissipated with a bang and he was seriously injured.

After all, the perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators were not puppets. Even if their entire bodies were blown up, they could revive with a wisp of soul.

However, this person discovered, to his shock, that his soul power was attracted by the mysterious force on the ground and could not escape quickly. And for some reason, the puppet’s broken hand had clasped this perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator.

Bang!

A small area of self-detonation exploded like a fireball.

In the next moment, the perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator was nowhere to be seen. His flesh, blood, and soul had all disappeared, and there were only some mineral fragments on the ground.

Besides, these mineral fragments were slowly swallowed by the power on the ground. Another cultivator in the perfected Star Transformation Realm immediately rushed over and quickly picked up some scattered mineral fragments. However, when he tried to find that perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator, he was shocked to find that he was gone.

Gulp!

Everyone swallowed. Was this puppet so terrifying? It was clearly no match for the perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator, but in the end, it could make him die with it. Wasn’t its combat power too strong?

For a moment, similar situations appeared in the entire outer city of Puppet City.

Because they had no experience in fighting puppets, they didn’t know many of the opponent’s killer moves. When they found out, as many as 200 perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators had died. They were all accidentally killed.

Of course, their death also let others see some of the battle tactics of these puppets, as well as some of their hidden trump cards.

However, what they regretted at this moment was why the northern expedition army split up immediately after they came in. If they hadn’t split up, they only needed to send one person to test the strength of these puppets, and so many people wouldn’t have had to die.

As the battle continued, the puppets that should have been silent seemed to be waking up. They began to turn their heads, and their eyes flickered.

This made many people’s hearts skip a beat. Earlier, they had only fought one or two puppets alone. The other puppets hadn’t fully woken up.

Now, once all the puppets in the city slowly woke up, they would only be more difficult to fight than at the beginning.

However, because they had already learned the methods of the puppets, there were more people participating in the battle, so the difficulty didn’t seem to increase much.

The puppets had awakened, but the various factions of the northern expedition army could also form groups! Therefore, the outer city became countless small battlefields.

From time to time, someone shouted, “Be careful not to be tricked. There’s something wrong with the ground here. It can absorb our flesh and blood and restrain our souls.”

A ferocious beast roared, “Don’t self-destruct. You can’t blow yourself up here. Once you do it, it will be difficult for you to regenerate your body. And then you’ll be restrained by the array here and can only die.”

The divine beasts warned their men, “Try not to use your born abilities, which will be absorbed too. It’s best if you can kill these puppets with your real combat power.”

In the outer city, there were battles everywhere. With the predecessors’ experiences, the remaining people naturally had a way. A perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator could directly defeat or even kill these puppets. As for peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators, to be honest, they couldn’t really beat these puppets, so they voluntarily formed a ten-person formation.

In this way, the casualties of the northern expedition were greatly reduced. As for the divine beasts and the ferocious beasts, the strength of the ferocious beasts was fully demonstrated. In terms of ferociousness and true combat power, few people in the same realm as them could match them. As for the divine beasts, when they unleashed their respective Great Daos and special inherited talents, the ferocious beasts had to avoid them. But at this moment, in terms of pure combat power, the divine beasts were not so powerful.

The divine beasts that had rarely died before began to die one after another. Fortunately, some powerful divine beasts were taking action to help them out.

Of course, Han Fei was not idle either. He was one of the first batches of people to attack. The Demon Vanquishing Tree was gone, and the puppets came out to defend the city, which meant that something must have happened in the inner city that the Demon Vanquishing Tree had to leave with its original body.

The leaves of the Demon Vanquishing Branch could spread out for 50,000 kilometers, but even such a huge body had left. It could be seen that what happened was quite tricky.

As for these puppets, Han Fei wasn’t surprised. This city was called Puppet City. How could there be no puppets here? Puppet City hadn’t seen the light of day for millions of years, but the Demon Vanquishing Tree had been killing the Bloody Hand Mine Devils. Where was the huge amount of minerals? Why were there only level-five refined puppets here?

Although Han Fei had never entered the inner city, he knew that Puppet City definitely had a large number of level-seven minerals. Since they weren’t in the outer city, they must be in the inner city. And judging from the strength displayed by the minerals puppet, a level-six minerals puppet was completely comparable to a perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivator.

If it was a level-seven mineral puppet, only a Dao Lock-level cultivator could deal with it, right?

But he wouldn’t tell others about this. If he guessed right, many people should know that if the puppets in the outer city were so strong, how could the inner city be simple?

The battle continued. In a one-on-one battle, the level-five mineral puppet was no match for the northern expedition army, the ferocious beasts, and the divine beasts.

For a moment, the strong masters took the initiative to attack. The most useful resource in the Infinite Mining Area was the mineral. Now that there were ready-made minerals in front of them, how could they miss them?

Therefore, it only took half an hour for them to calm down and take the initiative to attack.

Someone exclaimed, “This is definitely a trial. A trial that only the living can enter.”

Someone sighed. “The beginning of this trial is too difficult. Six thousand strong masters of our northern expedition army have been killed. This is still the outer city of Puppet City. Who knows what the inner city is like?”

Someone said, “No matter what the situation is, although the trial in the outer city is also dangerous, at least we can still fight. Such a mineral puppet is equivalent to many level-five mine demons we kill!”

Creak!

Swish ~

On a certain street, a ten-person team was fighting against two puppets. Just as the two puppets were about to collapse, a blue arrow suddenly shot through the strongest person in the team.

Puff~ Bam~

This person was shot by an arrow and his body suddenly burned. The person tried to extinguish the blue red flame, but unexpectedly, the flame could not be extinguished at all. This person felt that his blood was completely burning, even his soul was burning.

“Ahhh~”

Accompanied by a painful scream, the others who were in the array with this person were shocked. They immediately stayed away from this person and watched him turn into a burning man. In the blink of an eye, this person’s soul was burned up and he died on the spot.

Someone was shocked. “What the hell is this?”

Some people immediately looked at the direction where the arrow was shot. It turned out to be from the houses and buildings in the outer city that were abandoned long ago.

“Be careful. There are traps in these buildings.”

However, the same thing happened hundreds of times again. Even the ferocious beasts and divine beasts failed to block this strange flame arrow.

At this moment, everyone felt their scalps tingle. How could this be? Was this trial so difficult?

The level-five mineral puppet was already very strong. Now, it was accompanied by some arrows that were suddenly triggered. If one was not careful and was pierced by those arrows, he would die.

Even Han Fei encountered such arrows, but Han Fei was more vigilant and responsive and avoided them immediately.

On the ferocious beasts’ side, someone shouted, “Smash these buildings.”

A five-colored crocodile swept its tail and smashed a building into powder. But in the next moment, dozens of blue arrows burst out of the collapsed house, and they didn’t go in a straight line at all. Their speed reached ten times the speed of light. The crocodile couldn’t dodge in time and was hit by a row of arrows. In the next moment, it turned into a fiery lizard.

“Hiss ~”

This scene shocked many people. Then someone hurriedly shouted, “Don’t try to break the rules of the trial. Everyone, be careful. The speed of these arrows is only ten times the speed of light. If you pay attention, you can avoid them.”

Following the ups and downs of the battle, no other special forces were found in the outer city, and the puppets on the streets were gradually purged.

It took nearly a day to finish this battle.

However, the destination of all the roads finally pointed to the inner city. When everyone gathered again, they discovered that more than 800 people had died under the attacks of these level-five mineral puppets and flame arrows.

Was this a big number? If this place was regarded as a trial, compared to being hunted by the Bloody Hand Mine Devils, the number of casualties was actually not many.

When they finally came to the gate of the inner city, many people were relieved, but at the same time, they had complicated feelings. If the outer city was already so dangerous, how dangerous would the inner city be?

What Han Fei considered was that these puppets and arrows were probably not aimed at them at all, nor was this a trial.

What would happen if the Bloody Hand Mine Devils came in? The Bloody Hand Mine Devils didn’t have high intelligence and mostly acted with instincts. They might be able to defeat the level-five mineral puppets, but it would be quite difficult to directly kill the level-five mineral puppets.

Coupled with these arrows, the blue flames should not only have the characteristic of being inextinguishable, but also have the characteristic of burning the ominous. If they were targeted at the Bloody Hand Mine Devils, the outer city alone could probably kill tens of thousands of Bloody Hand Mine Devils.

At this moment, the cultivators gathered, and Han Fei counted the number of people.

Among them, there were still 8,806 people in the northern expedition army, 3,082 ferocious beasts, and 2,673 divine beasts. It could be said that the three major factions had suffered heavy losses in this northern expedition.

However, the death toll of the beasts and the divine beasts was clearly lower than that of the northern expedition army of the Hundred Alliance City. This was mainly because there were too many perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators from the ferocious beasts and divine beasts. If they had more peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm cultivators, they would probably lose at least one-third of their manpower.

Under Puppet City, Han Fei looked at the words and felt a buzz in his ears. A terrifying suppressing pressure descended on him, and even his soul couldn’t help but waver.

If this was the case for Han Fei, it was even more so for ordinary peak-level late-stage Star Transformation Realm and perfected Star Transformation Realm cultivators.

Many people vomited blood and couldn’t even stand straight after seeing the words “Puppet City”.

Someone said, “It’s written by a Great Monarch. The words ‘Puppet City’ contain the will and vibe of a Great Monarch. Don’t look at them directly.”

Someone was suspicious. “Is this another test? So far, we have only found this door leading to the inner city.”

Someone looked around. “What do you think? Are we going in or not?”

Someone shook his head slightly. “What can we do if we don’t go in? Stay in the outer city? Outside the barrier, there are so many Bloody Hand Mine Devils blocking our way. I’m afraid we can’t go back the way we came, so we can only go in.”

Everyone knew that they should enter, but it was a problem who would enter first. The outer city was full of fatal traps. God knew what dangers awaited them in the inner city.

Therefore, they certainly hoped that someone would go in first to test the situation inside. They weren’t afraid that someone would go in first and get the opportunity. According to the situation in the outer city, those who went in first would be very dangerous.

Han Fei stepped forward. He didn’t want to wait! Today, he had to enter the inner city no matter what. He needed to investigate the whereabouts of Old Yuan and the Demon Vanquishing Tree.

What if his clone was inside? Then as soon as he entered, he could communicate with his clone and immediately understand the cause and effect of the huge change.

However, when Han Fei was about to enter, he saw many people blocking his way.

Someone said, “Although it’s dangerous to go in, is there anything we haven’t done?”

Instantly, more than a dozen strong masters jumped out. Now that they had found the Land of Inheritance, why did they still need Han Fei?

Although they didn’t know where the bloody hand Han Fei said was, they knew they had to keep a close eye on Han Fei.

Han Fei took a deep look at this person. “Although I don’t know you, are you sure you want to stop me?”

The man sneered. “Human Butcher, we tolerated you before because you had the key to enter the Land of Inheritance. But now! The road is right in front of us, and you’re useless to us. So die!”

After that, the man said, “Everyone, this person is a bloodthirsty person. He appeared in the Infinite Mining Area for less than ten years, but countless strong masters have been killed by him, directly or indirectly. How many people have died because of him on this northern expedition? Also, although he said that he had the key, is it true? He said that the land of inheritance is not in Puppet City, but in fact, until now, we have been undergoing trials of Puppet City. Therefore, this person’s words are not trustworthy. It’s better to eliminate him now to prevent future trouble.”

However, Han Fei stood where he was calmly without any intention of escaping.

Han Fei said, “Which force are you from? I’ll remember it. After I go out, I’ll definitely wipe out your faction’s influence in the Infinite Mining Area.”

Before the man could speak, Chen Tianya said to Han Fei telepathically, “This is Lin Ke from the Divine Manipulator family in the Divine Demon Forest in the Central Sea Divine Realm. He has at least three Dao Locks, and the Divine Demon Forest ranks sixth in the Hundred Alliance City.

Lin Ke didn’t know that his identity had been exposed in an instant. At this moment, he was looking around at the other cultivators. He knew that many people had already decided to kill Han Fei on this trip.

Otherwise, no one would immediately follow Han Fei every time he did something, which was to prevent him from escaping.

Now, the time had come. Everyone knew the way to enter the inner city at a glance. If they survived the Great Monarch’s suppressing pressure, they would pass the trial.

As for what was in the inner city, no one knew, but everyone knew that once entering the inner city, it would be dangerous, and Han Fei would have plenty of chances to escape their sight.

In that case, why not kill him now? The outer city of Puppet City was only this big, and there was only one entrance to the inner city. Outside, there were countless Bloody Hand Mine Devils eyeing them covetously. Therefore, the outer city of Puppet City had become a cage.

At least, Lin Ke felt that if they attacked Han Fei now, he would definitely be killed.
