As they were wandering outside, Lin Xiao suddenly pushed Ye Chen away.
Before Ye Chen could react, a beam of light collided with Lin Xiao's protective qi.
"Good heavens..."
Ye Chen rolled over and stared at the thing that had suddenly attacked him. He opened his mouth.
The person was floating in the air, extending one hand, with a ball of light emanating from their palm and shooting towards Lin Xiao.
That light didn't seem like an ordinary ray, but rather a compressed force of spiritual energy in his perception.
And that face...
It was a blank, expressionless face that looked like Qi Tian's.
He didn't think it was Qi Tian himself; rather, it looked like Qi Tian had narcissistically created a puppet in his own likeness.
The face bore a seven or eight-tenths resemblance, but it was expressionless, as if the skin was merely painted on.
The clothes looked somewhat similar to the ones Lin Xiao had worn last night.
"Here again."
Lin Xiao knew Qi Tian would make a move, but he hadn't anticipated such speed.
Moreover, these things that attacked him each time were more powerful than before.
From the moment this puppet attacked, he knew that this time, Ye Chen could only watch from the sidelines. If Ye Chen became the target, his chances of survival would be slim.
"Lin Xiao, this puppet took me six hours to perfect. I reduced the manufacturing difficulty to facilitate mass production, so I'll trouble you to continue testing it. If the test is satisfactory, you'll have a significant mention in the mass production records of this puppet."
Why did Lin Xiao find this statement so familiar?
He replied with annoyance, "Thank you so much."
With that, he made his move.
He had no intention of holding back his strength. At the very least, he used his full power as a peak Mingxin realm cultivator without reservation. With the New Year approaching, he had to resolve the significant threat that Qi Tian posed as quickly as possible.
And...
The Nether Doctor had mentioned.
The Misty Immortal Palace might be making a move against the Ning family.
As his brother with whom he had faced life and death, how could he stand by and watch the Nether Doctor and their Ning family be bullied by the Misty Immortal Palace? He naturally had to find an opportunity to go there.
However, the people who would come from the Misty Immortal Palace would at least be a Divine realm expert.
What if someone above the Divine realm came...
The thought of this made Lin Xiao's actions even fiercer.
Watching Lin Xiao's movements on the screen, Qi Tian's eyes lit up. He gestured wildly with his hands. Beside him was a computer, and as he gestured, a 3D model of movement appeared on the screen.
When this model moved, it replicated Lin Xiao's current actions.
He wasn't just testing; he was also collecting Lin Xiao's data.
This computer was actually his lifebound artifact, refined using the techniques of their Qi Sect.
With a single thought, he could digitize anything he thought of on this computer. This was also why he could mass-produce artificial humans and cyborgs in such a short period.
He was the best in his generation of the Qi Sect at combining modern technology with their sect's techniques.
Similarly, when the computer connected to the internet, the information it obtained could be fed into his mind at the fastest pace, allowing him to acquire more reliable data.
