Chapter 253: Chapter 129: Yu Shier Suppresses Dual Seventh-Rank in One Breath, Burning His Pants
On the mountaintop, a late-stage seven-tier Great Demon shrouded in Demon Qi suddenly appeared. The two late-stage seven-tier Corpse Scorpions, enveloped in Poisonous Fog, stopped immediately. Instead of flying this way, they manipulated countless tendrils formed by the Poisonous Fog to attack Yu Shier’s Flame Dragon!
Under the twining and coiling of thousands of Poisonous Fog tendrils, the Flame Dragon trembled continuously and transformed into black flames. Yu Shier immediately fell into a disadvantage. His face changed slightly, and he kept retreating. Although this place wasn’t the Secret Realm Center—so he wasn’t as restricted and didn’t have to fear the concentrated Poisonous Fog there—he was still facing two seven-tier Corpse Scorpions. He dared not let their Poisonous Fog tendrils get close!
On the mountaintop, at the cave entrance, Celestial Sect Elder Hua Yanluo was the first among the crowd gazing at Lin Xuankong to react. She showed a look of bewilderment and said, "Mr. Mu, you managed to refine the corpse of a seven-tier Brown Bear Liao People into a Spirit Puppet in such a short time? But it has only been seven days... only seven short days have passed!"
Hua Yanluo had also cultivated the Third Spirit Puppet Technique and knew well how difficult it was to refine a Spirit Puppet. To complete the refining in seven days could only mean one thing: this Mr. Mu has definitely cultivated the Third Spirit Puppet Technique to Entering the Hall! Yet, across the entire Great Xia Dynasty, very few have mastered the Spirit Puppet Technique to Entering the Hall... The success of the Third Spirit Puppet Technique primarily depends on the grade of one’s Heart Thought. That’s why most Spirit Puppet Cultivators spend months just to reach the Entry Level, and then stop investing more time and energy into it!
But the issue was this: an ordinary Martial Cultivator would take months to reach the Entry Level of the Third Spirit Puppet Technique. Even the Celestial Sect Saintess would need tens of days to achieve the Entry Level. Yet Mr. Mu, standing before them, took only a mere twenty-odd days to reach Entering the Hall? That wasn’t the Entry Level; it was the third realm!
While Hua Yanluo was astonished, Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er, seated on the white carpet, became somewhat excited. "Mr. Mu, you truly are the most extraordinary talent I have ever seen, cultivating Secret Techniques so swiftly!
According to my grandfather, even in the Formless Buddhism of the Rakshasa Kingdom, those Buddha Sons born with a Buddha Heart still need eighteen days to reach the Entry Level of the Third Spirit Puppet Technique. For those same Buddha Sons to reach the Realm of Integration, the shortest record is still forty-nine days! It is said that the most talented individual in the Formless Buddhism, the one who is now the Golden Body Buddha Lord—Galuo Buddha Lord—still took one hundred and twenty-eight days to cultivate the Third Spirit Puppet Technique to Entering the Hall back then!"
As she spoke, Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er became so excited that her cheeks turned crimson. "I never imagined that in our Great Xia Dynasty, there would be someone like Mr. Mu with such unparalleled talent! His Cultivation Speed actually surpasses even that of the Golden Body Buddha Lord!"
The maidservant Qiing, upon hearing this, couldn’t help but look at Lin Xuankong with a hint of fear in her eyes. She clearly recalled the times she had repeatedly disrespected ’Mu Shiba,’ and a wave of fear washed over her. Then, she remembered the Princess instructing her to kneel and apologize. Qiing’s admiration for the Third Princess instantly grew—when the Princess had her kneel and apologize, it wasn’t a punishment; it was clearly an act of salvation! With Mu Shiba’s terrifying talent, if he were to bear a grudge, she feared even the Princess might not be able to protect her!
While everyone was expressing their amazement, Lin Xuankong, long accustomed to his Cultivation Speed far exceeding others, remained quite calm. He cupped his hands slightly towards Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er and said, "Princess, you praise me too much. Perhaps my talent is simply suited for cultivating the Spirit Puppet Technique. Now, with the seven-tier Great Demon wreaking havoc, I shall go and battle it!"
After speaking, he turned to the seven-tier Spirit Puppet Xiong Wudi beside him and raised his hand, infusing it with a vast amount of True Qi. In the next moment, the Demon Qi enveloping the seven-tier Spirit Puppet Xiong Wudi retracted and then surged, lifting Lin Xuankong into the air. Together, they flew towards the distant Poisonous Fog of the seven-tier Corpse Scorpions.
Standing amidst the dense Demon Qi, Lin Xuankong tossed the Demon Prison Cage in his hand. Instantly, the Demon Prison Cage transformed into three hundred gleaming Profound Iron Pillars, which began to whirl and encircle him. This spectacle made him look like a Sword Immortal wielding three hundred flying swords!
Back on the mountaintop, seeing this, Xiaoo Ying’Er’s face showed a hint of concern. "Mr. Mu, the poison of the seven-tier Corpse Scorpions is treacherous and bizarre! Your Demon Prison Cage can only suppress one seven-tier Corpse Scorpion. When facing the other Corpse Scorpion, be extremely careful of its Poisonous Fog tendrils! You absolutely must not get caught by them!"
Within the Great Xia Dynasty, such an astonishing prodigy had actually appeared. Xiaoo Ying’Er, who had always held the Great Xia Dynasty’s interests paramount, naturally did not wish for any harm to befall this Mr. Mu. Seeing him personally go to confront the two Great Demons, she was understandably worried. Before Xiaoo Ying’Er could finish speaking,
Yu Shier, who was battling the two Corpse Scorpions in the distance, suddenly moved, accelerating his retreat. It was because the two seven-tier Corpse Scorpions, seeing the seven-tier Brown Bear Liao People flying towards them, unleashed their most ferocious attack to avoid being caught between two enemies. The thousands of Poisonous Fog tendrils from the two seven-tier Corpse Scorpions ignored the Flame Dragon and all coiled towards Yu Shier. How could Yu Shier dare to withstand such Poisonous Fog, which could lower his Cultivation? He had no choice but to hasten his retreat!
Seven-tier Great Demons, especially these seven-tier Corpse Scorpions, possessed an almost overwhelming advantage against same-tier Martial Cultivators. Martial Cultivators could only use long-range attacks against them. If the Poisonous Fog tendrils got too close, they had to retreat immediately. No Martial Cultivator dared to withstand their Poisonous Fog head-on!
