Chapter 553 Zhang Tieyang
After seeing the humanoid spirit puppet appearing in front of them, Song Qingming and Yun Xinhe, who had witnessed this secret technique for the first time, looked at Master Qingluo with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
Humanoid spirit puppets can also be regarded as a type of puppetry, but because this kind of puppet made with special secret techniques is very close to a real person, the world of immortality has divided it separately and formed a new category.
Qingluo Zhenren's humanoid spirit puppet looks lifelike. Except for the fact that its cultivation is only in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, the whole person looks almost the same as himself. It can be seen that it is indeed a very rare thing.
Jin Ziyuan on the side saw some curiosity on the faces of Song Qingming and the two of them, and quickly explained: "The spirit puppet refining method of fellow Taoist Qingluo is a very rare secret skill in our immortal cultivation world in Fuyun Mountains. Don't look at it. This humanoid spirit puppet is not very advanced, but it is much more useful to control than ordinary puppet beasts.”
Hearing Jin Ziyuan's praise, Master Qingluo immediately waved his hands with a smile on his face and said: "It's just a trivial skill and not worth mentioning. Fellow Taoist Jin's words are a bit ridiculous. Although the secret technique of refining the spirit puppet is difficult to find, But it's not that rare.
If some fellow Taoists are interested, I can also give each of you a spirit puppet in the Qi refining stage after you leave the tower. Although it won't be of much use, it can be used to serve tea and water in the cave. , it is still very useful to deal with debris. "
Hearing Master Qingluo say this, Song Qingming and others also became interested and thanked him one after another.
While several people were talking, the humanoid spirit puppet controlled by Master Qingluo had also stepped closer to the center of the stone room.
Unexpectedly, just when the humanoid spirit puppet had just approached the stone statues, which was more than ten feet away, there was a sudden shaking sound under its feet, and the dozens of lifeless stone statues suddenly began to glow with golden light.
Immediately afterwards, these stone statues seemed to come alive and began to move slowly. After a while, the two stone statue beasts closest to the humanoid spirit puppet suddenly jumped into the air quickly and pounced on the humanoid spirit puppet not far ahead. come over.
While the stone puppet beast was still in mid-air, it spit out a powerful white ball of light from its mouth, which directly hit the silver shield in the humanoid puppet's hand, knocking it back several feet.
Seeing this, the humanoid spirit puppet did not choose to fight head-on with these stone puppet beasts. After rolling backwards to avoid a few attacks that followed, it dodged a few times and performed a set of strange movements. He returned to Qingluo Zhenren's side.
This humanoid spirit puppet is so flexible that it looks like a real person. It is indeed not comparable to ordinary puppet beasts that move more clumsily. Song Qingming's eyes changed when he saw how the humanoid spirit puppet, Master Qingluo, reacted to danger. Chuuya showed a hint of surprise.
As expected, the stone statues surrounding the teleportation formation are all ancient puppet beasts controlled by the formation restrictions here. Once someone approaches the triggered restrictions, they will automatically be activated to attack the monks who break into the stone chamber. .
Although these stone statues are only at the foundation-building stage, there are dozens of them, and many of them have reached the late-stage foundation-building stage. If ordinary golden elixir monks encounter them alone, it will be very difficult to deal with them.
But now they were facing Song Qingming's five powerful Jindan monks, and these stone puppet beasts with their teeth and claws were not so scary.
"Bring some of these puppet beasts here before we start. Be careful not to damage the teleportation array in the middle, otherwise it will be a bit troublesome to repair it later."
After Zhao Menglian warned everyone, she took out a cyan dagger first and struck out a sword light directly at a wolf-shaped stone statue that was about to pounce in front of her.
Song Qingming and others also showed off their magic weapons and began to clean up the numerous stone puppet beasts of different shapes and shapes that were frantically attacking them.
For a while, colorful magic weapons were flying everywhere in the stone chamber, and various "bang bang bang bang" sounds were heard. From time to time, gravel flew across and hit the ground and walls of the stone room.
With the five golden elixir monks joining forces, these puppet beasts did not pose any threat to them at all. In just one stick of incense, Song Qingming and others easily eliminated half of the stone puppet beasts, and even deliberately protected them during the battle. The teleportation array in the distance did not cause any damage to the teleportation array.
Just when everyone was fighting fiercely, Song Qingming released his spiritual consciousness and suddenly felt a different kind of magical pressure coming out of the stone chamber. After getting rid of a stone puppet beast in front of him, Song Qingming turned around and looked at the teleportation array. A person not far away shouted loudly:
"Who is hiding here sneakily? Come out quickly!"
Hearing Song Qingming's sudden shout, Zhao Menglian immediately noticed something was wrong. He waved his hand and threw a sharp light blade directly into the open space next to the teleportation array.
"Fellow Taoists, stop! Don't misunderstand, just come out!"
As a trembling voice sounded, a fat figure suddenly appeared in the open space of the teleportation array, avoiding Zhao Mengli's attack.
Seeing an extra person suddenly appear in front of them, Jin Ziyuan and the other three who were still fighting the stone puppet beast were also startled. They abandoned their remaining opponents and went directly to Song Qingming and Zhao Mengli. come over.
"Who are you and why are you hiding here and spying on us!"
"Fellow Daoist Zhao misunderstood, I am here with Zhang Tieyang, a casual cultivator in Muyang Mountain. I actually entered the palace by mistake just now. I got here before you. I didn't want to hear a sudden noise outside. I thought I had encountered those demon kings, so I had no choice but to hide my identity. I didn’t mean to spy on you, Fellow Daoist Zhao.”
The speaker was a short, slightly fat young man. He was also a Golden Core monk, and he seemed to have known Zhao Mengli before, as he called out her last name as soon as he opened his mouth. .
Hearing what Zhang Tieyang said, Song Qingming and Zhao Fengli suddenly realized why a pile of rubble from the stone puppet beast had just appeared in the corridor outside. It was probably Zhang Tieyang's masterpiece who had come in before them.
Thinking of this, Zhao Mengli asked again: "You are just a casual cultivator, so why do you know me, but I have no impression of you at all."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tieyang immediately spoke nervously and explained: "Young Daoist Zhao don't know that before I formed the elixir, I participated in the battle between the Lu State and the Tianhai Alliance, and it was at that time that I was lucky enough to meet Fellow Daoist Zhao.
However, because my cultivation level was low at that time, I did not have the opportunity to act alone with Fellow Daoist Zhao, so Fellow Daoist Zhao had no impression of me. "
Hearing what the other party said, Zhao Mengli still didn't seem to believe it. Just when she was about to continue asking, two more stone puppet beasts rushed towards her, interrupting her question. talk.
"Be careful, Fellow Daoist Zhao, I'm coming down here to help you defeat the enemy!" Zhang Tieyang, who was still thinking about how to gain the trust of Zhao Mengli and others, saw such a good opportunity and immediately shouted, took out his magic weapon and rushed over, stopping a The stone puppet beast is pestering Zhao Mengli.
Although Zhang Tieyang's cultivation level is not high, only the second level of Golden elixir, he is very hard-working in his actions. He solved a stone puppet beast in two or three times, and then killed the remaining puppet beasts with a fierce look on his face. passed.
Seeing that the other party really wanted to help, Zhao Menglian didn't say anything more. Anyway, the most urgent task at hand was to quickly defeat these stone puppet beasts that were struggling to attack them. The rest could wait until the matter was resolved.
Another half-quarter of an hour later, as the last stone puppet beast was knocked off its head by Yun Xinhe with a hammer, all the puppet beasts in the stone room finally turned into a pile of rubble, and everyone immediately stopped to rest. tone.
Because Zhang Tieyang took the initiative to contribute a lot in the subsequent battles, everyone had a slightly better impression of him. After some questioning, Zhao Mengli and others quickly confirmed his identity. This person was indeed a person. A casual cultivator of golden elixirs from the Lu Kingdom, he had successfully formed elixirs around the same time as Song Qingming before the monster turmoil.
The two of them formed pills at about the same time, and they participated in the battle with the Tianhai Alliance together. After Song Qingming chatted with him for a while, he also began to think that he had indeed seen this person on the battlefield.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, may I ask how you found this place?"
Hearing Zhao Mengli's inquiry, Zhang Tieyang said bluntly with some embarrassment: "I didn't come alone when I came to Tongtian Tower this time. I just separated from the fellow Taoist after I came in. I wanted to search around the area. After looking at each other, I unexpectedly discovered this palace.
I thought there would be some opportunity here, so I rushed in. Unexpectedly, I found nothing in this place except those broken stone puppet beasts. Later, I met fellow Taoists who were blocked here! "
"Oh! So that's it. Since fellow Taoist friends are also traveling with them, I'm afraid the other party is also looking for fellow Taoists everywhere. Then we have to go to other places to hunt for treasures, so we can say goodbye without delay!"
As soon as Zhao Menglian finished speaking, Zhang Tieyang's face changed slightly, and he immediately raised his hands to several people and said: "I have been looking nearby for a long time, but I still haven't seen him. I'm afraid he is not nearby anymore. This time I come here." I was in such a hurry and hadn't prepared the soul talisman, so it was probably difficult to find him again.
Since I have met some Taoist friends here by fate, I wonder if you can do it conveniently and take me along with you. Don’t worry, these Taoist friends, if you find something good next, it will be fine if you share less. I just ask As long as you can get out safely. "
After hearing Zhang Tieyang's request, Zhao Menglian and others looked at each other with a look of surprise on their faces.
