The entire underground fault world was silent, with no changes.
Whiz, whiz!
About half an hour later, a handful of figures appeared.
The Sky Thunder Rat, Old Snake Turtle, Big Black Tiger and Black Mountain Bull – the four Demon Kings appeared. They stared at the formation barrier in front of them, their eyes full of surprise. They looked to the left and right, as well as underneath them.
The Sky Thunder Rat couldn’t help but exclaim, “Where did it go? How come it’s not visible?”
The Old Snake Turtle, with a snake-like head, flicked its tongue, its eyes cool and calm. It didn’t say anything but seemed to be deep in thought.
Next to it, the White-Eyed Soul Tiger’s eyes shone with a strange light. A mysterious soul power searched around again and again, scanning the sides and the bottom. Finally, it said with a furrowed brow, “No trace.”
The old Black Bull was immediately surprised, “That’s incredible. It didn’t go inside, did it?”
“Old Bull, you think too much!” Sky Thunder Rat’s body suddenly exploded with lightning, electrifying the surrounding area. He said, “That’s impossible. We couldn’t even get in, let alone a mere Third Order Lower Tier Eight-Arm Reaping Mantis!”
Old Snake Turtle at this time quietly said: “The fluctuation of the aura just now was strange. Initially, it was just a Third Order Lower Tier level but, the next moment, it reached the peak of Third Order Lower Tier.”
“At the end, that breath seemed to come from a human clan’s nascent magical artifact.”
“So, it must have been a puppet beast of a human cultivator, not a magical beast.”
As it spoke, it looked at the unchanged formation barrier ahead, somewhat relieved.
Old Snake Turtle added: “It probably just wanted to try to get in. I kind of wish it had succeeded, then maybe we could have broken the formation and seen what ancient opportunities await inside.”
“Unfortunately…it clearly has a long way to go, even with a nascent magical artifact.”
After multiple unsuccessful attempts to find it, they eventually dispersed.
Hum!
In a vast stretch of the sky, the hot sun was hanging high overhead. Suddenly, a ripple spread throughout the sky and an immense wave of nature’s spiritual energy turned into a tidal wave, surging in every direction.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
“Rustle, rustle, rustle!”
Below, a green wave rolled over the dense forest of the mountain range, waking the birds and causing them to scatter and fly away.
This was accompanied by intense spatial fluctuations.
In a blink of an eye.
A black figure suddenly appeared in the sky above.
“Hum!”
A terrifying frosty essence engulfed the world, and the birds that had just tried to flee were instantly turned into ice sculptures.
But thankfully, in the next moment, this frosty aura was retracted.
Thump!
The figure from the sky plunged from a great height. In an instant, the mountains trembled and dirt splattered everywhere as a puppet body crashed into the center of the mountain, its aura becoming extremely weak at this moment.
Its soul power was nearly depleted, and the puppet body’s inner core power was also almost exhausted.
The moment it fell into the mountainside, the puppet body quickly summoned one hundred mid-grade spirit stones from its Qiankun Bag, placing them inside its core for absorption.
After a slight rest, the puppet body, despite its fragile soul power, burst out of the mountain and randomly chose a direction to leave.
“I can’t linger here. I need to find somewhere to hide and recover!”
As he left, the puppet body casually waved its hand to restore the destruction earlier, erasing any trace of his presence.
It rushed into the dense forest below at the fastest speed and pulled out a concealment talisman and invisibility talisman from the Qiankun Bag, activating them and applying them onto itself.
With this, he traveled nearly ten miles before burrowing into the ground to carve out a suitable cave for himself.
He then took out the formation flags from the Qiankun Bag and set up a formation around the cave.
Only then did the puppet body let out a sigh of relief.
He had even forgotten to check out his surroundings, catching only a fleeting glimpse of an incredibly vast world filled with mountains and rivers, blazing sun, soaring birds, and dense forests.
Most importantly, the nature’s spiritual energy here was astonishingly dense. Even in the ordinary areas, the concentration of the spiritual energy almost reached that of the Third Tier Ice-Fire Double Realm cave mansions in the Day-Month Island.
At this moment, the Eight-Arm Reaping Mantis-form puppet body lay in the dark mountain cave beneath the ground, absorbing the high-grade spirit stones and the dense natural spiritual energy around it, replenishing its nearly depleted core power.
While recovering its own strength, it contemplated in silence.
“The Golden Jade Fairy Gate secret realm, which emerged from the Eight Demons Ridge in the past, though I have never been inside, I heard that it’s over a hundred miles in size with eighteen main peaks, including the Main Peak, Relic Peak, Medicine Peak, and the Instrument Peak, etc. Among them are countless remnant formations, and prohibitions, exceedingly dangerous.”
“There are also many magical beasts that have been lingering there since ancient times, among them are Third-Order magical beasts.”
“The relic site of the Lunar Alliance is even stronger than that of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate. Perhaps the formations and prohibitions here are even more terrifying.”
“I must be extremely cautious.”
A few days later, the core strength of the puppet body was fully restored.
However, since it had used up the power of its puppet soul, the puppet soul power within him was now depleted, making it appear extremely gloomy. To use it again, he would need to return and restore it with the power of the Golden Cicada Method.
Otherwise, it would take the puppet soul several years or even ten years to recover its power on its own.
After restoring its core power, the puppet body carefully packed away the formation flags, then slipped out from under the ground and returned to the surface.
