A swift finish, Devourer's Treasure

Liu Wuming flipped his hand, and suddenly a palm-sized wooden puppet appeared in his hand. The Profound Mysteries puppet was engraved with an extremely profound Formation, and it was also inlaid with three mid-grade Spirit Stones, which was equivalent to the value of three thousand low-grade Spirit Stone. Three mid-grade Spirit Stone were enough to show the value of this wooden Puppet.

Liu Wuming held Puppet Doll in one hand and Water-Splitting Daggers in the other. He dripped Zhuge Xiang's blood from the Water-Splitting Daggers onto the Puppet Doll. Visibly, an incredibly dense power suddenly surged forth, covering the entire Puppet Doll's body. A blinding light flashed, causing everyone to involuntarily raise their hands to shield their eyes from the glare. Then, the light dissipated, revealing a figure standing before Zhuge Xiang.

Upon seeing the additional figure, everyone stared in astonishment, even Zhuge Xiang's expression shifted slightly.

"Another Zhuge Xiang!?" The Martial Arts Plaza, which had more than 20,000 people, was silent for a moment before someone couldn't help but speak up. This voice was like a fuse, and in an instant, the entire Martial Arts Plaza was filled with discussion. The change from extreme silence to extreme commotion did not seem abrupt at all.

"What's going on? How come there's an extra Zhuge Xiang on the field?"

"Idiot, didn't you see? This Zhuge Xiang looks the same, but if you look closely, you can see wood grain. This Zhuge Xiang is a lifeless Puppet."

"Although it's Puppet, the aura emanating from it is exactly the same as Zhuge Xiang's —the same Spear Intent, the same Demonic True Body. Could it be? Even their strength is exactly the same?"

Zhuge Xiang ignored the surrounding disciples' discussions, focusing intently on the Puppet before him. Zhuge Xiang sensed a powerful threat emanating from Puppet, a threat no less intense than the one he had felt from the Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator he had slain in Shuzhong City that day...

"Hehehe..." Despite his severe injuries, Liu Wuming of victory, chuckling smugly as he looked at Zhuge Xiang and said, "My Mirror Puppet can only be used once, but once it collects the opponent's blood, it can perfectly replicate everything about them, including their cultivation level, equipment, and even their Cultivation Technique Martial Skill. Your strength is indeed formidable, but can you defeat yourself and fight me together?"

"Hiss, this Mirror Puppet is actually this strong? Zhuge Xiang is in big trouble. That Puppet has all his abilities, and Liu Wuming is joining forces with him..." As Liu Wuming finished speaking, the more than 20,000 disciples of the Battle Hall exclaimed in surprise. It wasn't that the Inner Sect Disciple of the Asura Sect had poor mental fortitude, but rather that the abilities of this Mirror Puppet were simply too abnormal.

"It's just a Puppet. Watch me smash it!" Looking at the Mirror Puppet in front of him, Zhuge Xiang's eyes shone with intense fighting spirit.

How strong is he? Although Zhuge Xiang has always been confident, he has never fought against himself. Today, with this Mirror Puppet possessing all his Skill, equipment, and cultivation, Zhuge Xiang wants to personally experience just how strong he has become.

Explosive Steps, Blood Thunder Slash, Eagle Eye Technique...

Before Zhuge Xiang could make a move, the Puppet had already attacked. With a roar of Wind and Thunder, the Puppet's figure transformed into a blood-red shadow, charging menacingly towards Zhuge Xiang. Its speed was so fast that it was almost impossible for anyone to react.

"So fast!" This set of Skill is Zhuge Xiang's best combination to kill his opponent. Zhuge Xiang has used it countless times. However, when he faced this move, Zhuge Xiang was shocked. This combination move was really terrifying. Both its speed and power reached a very high level.

Unexpectedly, the Puppet attacked without warning. Faced with this terrifyingly fast attack, Zhuge Xiang was fortunate to have activated Eagle Eye Technique, barely managing to raise his arm and unleash a Knockback Skill.

Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear against Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear, the two spears clashed, Zhuge Xiang's body remained still, but the Puppet's body was sent flying by Zhuge Xiang's Knockback.

The Puppet's Explosive Steps activated, and it should have been in a cooldown state. Zhuge Xiang appeared behind the Puppet like a ghost, and the Poisonous Flood Dragon Spear pierced towards the Puppet's back wall at an incredible angle. With a rolling force, this spear could easily pierce even steel.

Bite!

However, although the Puppet did not turn around, it held a Dagger in its hand and easily blocked Zhuge Xiang's attack with Blade of Blockade.

Looking at the Blade of Blockade, Zhuge Xiang was secretly shocked. This Puppet could actually copy even the Magic Artifact in his Storage Ring?

Boom!

After blocking Zhuge Xiang's attack with the Blade of Blockade, the Puppet suddenly erupted with crimson Qi Energy, its power soaring once more. Following the Spear Intent and the Demonic True Body, the Puppet seemed to have sensed Zhuge Xiang's difficulty and finally unleashed its final Bloodthirsty Technique.

"Bloodthirsty Technique! Zhuge Xiang actually knows Bloodthirsty Technique!?" The approximately 20,000 disciples exclaimed in surprise once again as they watched the Puppet unleash Bloodthirsty Technique.

In the previous battle with Liu Wuming, Zhuge Xiang had not used Puppet Bloodthirsty Technique. Since this Puppet was made based on Zhuge Xiang, it is clear that Zhuge Xiang should also be able to use it.

"This guy is not only troublesome! We must finish him off quickly!" Zhuge Xiang's face darkened as he watched the Puppet unleash its Bloodthirsty Technique.

If they were alone, Zhuge Xiang would be happy to fight his Puppet, to get a clear sense of his own strength. However, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhuge Xiang knew he had to kill the Puppet as soon as possible. The longer the battle lasted, the more of his trump cards would be exposed, which would be very disadvantageous for him.

Who knows if this entanglement will lead to the Puppet summoning a Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda, or using the Heavenly Demon Zen Sound to suppress him? Once the Evil Suppressing Pagoda appears, or the Heavenly Demon Zen Sound appears, even if the people from the Heavenly Dragon Temple don't come looking for him, the Purgatory Elder will definitely come knocking on his door.

Unable to continue the fight, Zhuge Xiang decided to end the battle quickly, regardless of the consequences. He retreated several steps to dodge the Puppet's terrifying attacks under the Bloodthirsty Technique spell, while shouting, "Xiao Yue!"

As soon as Zhuge Xiang's Duel began, Xiao Yue, who had retreated to the side, heard Zhuge Xiang's call. Her nimble body transformed into a white shadow and she arrived in front of Zhuge Xiang, landing on his shoulder with practiced ease.

"Monster Beast pet? Haha! In Duel like this, how much use can a Monster Beast pet be?" Looking at the Xiao Yue summoned by Zhuge Xiang, Liu Wuming, who was carefully Healing and had recovered most of his wounds, sneered. As he spoke, he drew his Water-Splitting Daggers, clearly preparing to join forces with the Puppet to attack Zhuge Xiang from both sides.

"Back then, I killed Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator with my Innate Realm cultivation. How could I possibly threaten an Innate Realm Cultivator with the strength I'm displaying now? Don't you find that strange?" Zhuge Xiang said calmly to Liu Wuming, carrying Xiao Yue on his shoulder.

Zhuge Xiang's words silenced the entire Martial Arts Arena instantly, and everyone's eyes were focused on Zhuge Xiang, including Man Kui over there.

Although Man Kui had long known that Zhuge Xiang possessed the ability to kill Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator, he hadn't witnessed that battle firsthand. The others held their breath, wondering if Zhuge Xiang Man Kui about to reveal his power capable of slaying Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator.

Liu Wuming's expression changed, but he quickly regained his confidence and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, no matter what you say, it's useless. This Mirror Puppet is like a mirror, perfectly replicating everything about you. Since you possess the power to kill Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator, then this Mirror Puppet naturally possesses the same ability."

"Is that so!? It's a pity this Puppet can only copy my abilities and things! But! It can't copy Xiao Yue! It's a living thing! Not an inanimate object! And my strongest power is precisely in it," Zhuge Xiang said coldly, looking at Liu Wuming's arrogant appearance. Then, he activated his ability to Devourer's Treasure.

Zhuge Xiang didn't want to use the Devourer's Treasure ability, hoping for a quick victory, but in order to protect the secret of the Heavenly Dragon Town Evil Pagoda, he had no choice but to do so.

As the Devourer's Treasure Skill was activated, Zhuge Xiang's appearance changed once again. His long black hair, vertical beast eyes, and crescent-shaped patterns caused Zhuge Xiang aura to suddenly increase. Although he lacked the 1,000-point attack power boost from the Zhuge Xiang Berserk Bear Secret Medicine compared to before, the Zhuge Xiang he exuded at this moment was still extremely terrifying.

Zhuge Xiang also activated his Bloodthirsty Technique. The soaring crimson aura, mixed with the primordial Vital Energy of Heaven and Earth, transformed into an unparalleled power. Before this power, the so-called Mirror Puppet appeared extremely insignificant.

"The fluctuations of the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy!? He can actually manipulate the fluctuations of the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy!" Sensing Zhuge Xiang's unparalleled power, the other Squad Leader all changed their expressions drastically and exclaimed in shock.

"This is impossible! You haven't reached the Deity Transformation stage! How could you possibly mobilize the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy!" Liu Wuming exclaimed in horror, his face changing color.

The power of Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator in their ability to mobilize the power of Heaven and Earth, and now, Zhuge Xiang possesses this ability.

"Is this his true strength?" A complex light flashed deep in Man Kui's eyes as he sensed Zhuge Xiang's formidable power.

"Take this! Moonlight Cannon Arrow!" Having devoured the Xiao Yue, Zhuge Xiang now possessed all of its abilities. He drew back the Wild Bow, combining his own power with the power of Heaven and Earth mobilized by the Xiao Yue, and the power of the Moonlight Cannon coalesced into a sharp arrow.

The intent of the bow and arrow was unleashed, and the Wild Bow's Frenzied Strike Skill was activated. Even before the arrow was released, it seemed to possess the power to change the very fabric of the Heaven and Earth and shatter mountains and rivers... (To be continued...)
