Ming Zhitian dodged the two incoming sword strikes and then unleashed: "Ice Sea Clear River!"
Instantly, several mechanical puppets were frozen, then consumed by burning flames.
Ming Zhitian concentrated his sword, and then unleashed a strike from the Ghost Gate: "Qing Long Tian Xiao!"
"Bang bang bang bang!..."
Explosions erupted everywhere! By the time the dust and grime filled with sword light and killing intent dissipated, not a single mechanical puppet remained.
Ming Zhitian, holding his sword, stood tall, firmly believing that even against a Fuxu Realm opponent, he possessed the power to kill in a single strike!
"Swish swish swish… Blink… Blink…"
Dozens of people appeared before him, all clad in the uniforms of the Mechanical Sect disciples. They turned hostile gazes towards Ming Zhitian. One stepped forward:
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into our Mechanical Sect? And you crippled dozens of this Master's creations. If you don't provide a suitable reason, this Master will not let you off!"
Ming Zhitian replied, "Apologies, they attacked us first. I was merely defending myself. It was all basically a misunderstanding. I'm here to find Yuan Yi."
Cheng Xin: "The traitor Yuan Yi?"
Ming Zhitian blinked, "Traitor? What do you mean?"
Cheng Xin smirked, "This Master has learned that Yuan Yi betrayed the Mechanical Sect and is the culprit behind the murders of our Grand Ancestor Chang Jiang and Uncle-Ancestor Mu. Indeed, junior brothers, it seems he has accomplices. I thought, how could Yuan Yi alone have allowed the conspiracy to succeed so easily? Someone must have fanned the flames!"
Ming Zhitian's brow furrowed, "Everyone, please listen to me..."
Cheng Xin leered at the Star Empress, his gaze greedy. "My fellow junior brothers, the evidence is conclusive. Let's kill this brat, but be careful not to harm the woman beside him. She must be a pitiable woman he forcibly abducted…"
"Yes, senior brother!"
The Mechanical Sect disciples then cast spells, summoning more and more mechanical puppets...!
Ming Zhitian was astonished, "They can merge spellcasting with mechanical puppets? Similar to spirit control arts."
As he pondered, hundreds of mechanical puppets attacked! Ming Zhitian casually sliced two with one sword, then swung his second sword, dispatching four behind him.
Ming Zhitian employed the Northern Desert Longevity Art: "Sublimate Eternal!"
He shielded the Star Empress, then concentrated his sword and unleashed: "Supreme Return to Heaven! Chang Ling Converge!"
"Bang bang! Rumbling!..."
Mechanical puppet after mechanical puppet fell, seeing them collapse one after another. Cheng Xin gritted his teeth in hatred. "Who in the world is he? He's clearly only at the God Emperor realm, yet he... I absolutely cannot let this man ruin my plan!"
The Star Empress, witnessing such terrifying power, had never encountered anything like it in history. Each battle was accompanied by explosions, and the space trembled, seeming on the verge of collapse. Knowing she was powerless to help, she could only silently pray for Ming Zhitian in her heart.
"Lawless!"
"Eternal Life!"
"Boundless Sea of Fortune!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!........."
Over a hundred attacking mechanical puppet figures instantly exploded into pieces, their limbs and fragments falling to the ground.
Ming Zhitian, however, stood composed and at ease!
Cheng Xin cursed Ming Zhitian for destroying his painstakingly cultivated, decades-old dozens of Wheel King realm mechanical puppets, all annihilated.
Ming Zhitian attempted to intervene, "Wait! I have no intention of offending. Summon Yuan Yi to see me!"
"Arrogant!" Cheng Xin added fuel to the fire, "Junior brothers! Stop holding back. Unleash all your skills, and you must kill this traitor on the spot! After subduing the traitor, I, Cheng Xin, promise to open the Hundred Profound Mechanical Sect's equipment treasury for you all to choose from!"
Upon hearing this, the Mechanical Sect disciples rejoiced! They quickly summoned their long-cherished mechanical puppets from the first and second heavens of the Fuxu Realm!
