God knows how long those guys will stay in seclusion and not go out once they study Mechanism Puppet Technique. Fortunately, Lei Dong wandered around and inquired about it, and found out a valuable piece of news. Like other large sects, Myriad Puppet Sect has a long history of inheritance. It is unknown how many disciples have gone out to explore, established Lineage and their forces and then attached themselves to the sect.
Those Lineage were ups and downs, some were annihilated, and some were newly built. At this stage, there are probably still hundreds of tribes. Most of these Lineage are built on the basis of Puppet Technique. The disciples of the tribe have grown up under the influence of Mechanism Puppet Technique since they were young. And Myriad Puppet Sect is to supplement the freshness. Blood often selects the outstanding disciples from these attached Lineage for training or Puppet Technique to add to the sect to pass on and extend the sect. After all, the disciples can be selected from these Lineage, and the overall quality of the disciples is much better than that of boys and girls randomly collected from the outside with no foundation.
Of course, those Lineage are also very happy for disciples from the clan to join Myriad Puppet Sect, especially to become one of its core disciples. Especially for some young Lineage who are struggling to survive. Once a certain disciple can become the core disciple of the Myriad Puppet Sect, then Lineage can immediately get out of trouble and increase its strength greatly.
The way to select disciples from these Lineage is the once-in-a-decade puppet competition. This is a grand event held every ten years by the Myriad Puppet Sect, and is highly valued by the sect and various Lineages. The young disciple who wins in the end can even receive guidance from Grand Elder, and the rest of the former Nine people can at least gain the right to visit. What's more coincidental is that the puppet competition is only three years away. Perhaps, three years is a long time for an ordinary person. But for Lei Dong, a monk like Nascent Soul Realm who has lived for thousands of years, it is only a short stay.
It can be said that if it were not for such a special opportunity, it would be difficult for Lei Dong to find a way to get close to their Grand Elder. The next thing would be very simple...
This is a remote valley thousands of miles away from the Myriad Puppet Sect. Although the valley is unknown and lacks spiritual energy, it is also covered with thousands of grasses and flowers, creating a scene of health and peace with the fragrance of flowers and the chirping of birds.
For the mortals who live within a hundred miles nearby, this place named Myriad Flower Valley is where the immortals live. Because it has been passed down from generation to generation that in a certain year and month, they saw immortals flying in the sky, emerging from the clouds and fog, coming and going like the wind. Over time, mortals have respected and feared this place.
A few years ago, there was a village dozens of miles away called Monster Beast. In just half a month, a dozen cattle and sheep, and three or four people, were swallowed up. Desperate mortals thought of the gods in Myriad Flower Valley. The village chief personally led the elders of the clan, hobbled over and knelt outside Myriad Flower Valley to make a plea, asking the gods living in Myriad Flower Valley to help kill Monster Beast and restore the health of the people.
All the gods are ruthless, and the mortals who have not seen any sign of the fairy for several days are almost desperate. Unexpectedly, at this last moment, a little girl who is only thirteen or fourteen years old flies away through the clouds and mist. After going back and forth for only half an hour, she comes back with Monster Beast's head.
Those mortal elders went back gratefully and enshrined Myriad Flower Valley from then on. They also heard from the villagers who stayed behind that Monster Beast brazenly came to the village that day to eat animals and people. Just when a child was almost snatched away by Monster Beast, the cute Little Fairy carved from pink and jade was revealed. E stepped on the clouds and mist, cast his magic, and summoned a Heavenly General to fight with Monster Beast. In less than half a stick of incense, Heavenly General killed Monster Beast with his sword, saving the lives of an entire village of mortals.
It was this place called Myriad Flower Valley. Lei Dong put his hands on his back and looked at the rolling dense fog and clouds on the valley with interest. Obviously, it was a mountain-protecting formation, and the level was not low. However, perhaps because of its age, based on Lei Dong's current cultivation level and some superficial formation knowledge, it seemed that this mountain-protecting formation already had many loopholes.
His gaze was focused, like two sharp swords, shooting deeply into the thick fog. The architectural structure and layout of the valley were instantly revealed in his mind. He could even clearly see what seemed to be a martial arts arena, where a boy and a girl were competing.
Their fighting method is also very special. Both of them stand behind the puppets and direct the puppets to fight. The boy's puppet is bronze in color, holding a halberd and is tall and mighty. The girl's puppet is smaller and more delicate. The girl also ingeniously added a lot of equipment to Mechanism Puppet. accessories, and painted the color of the puppet pink, as if a lot of thought was put into it. The puppet looks good, but it makes people feel a little unprofessional. Mechanism Puppet is about strong combat power, and its ferocious appearance will make people tremble at first sight.
With a quick glance, Lei Dong observed that their cultivation levels were all on the fifth or sixth level of Qi Refining Stage. At this age, their cultivation levels could only be said to be mediocre and incomparable with the elites among their peers. Especially in the Great Gan Continent, which has a vast territory and abundant talents. This level of cultivation is really not eye-catching at all.
But their puppets seem to be very powerful. Both sides move around and the battle is very fierce. Whether it is melee combat or long-range spells, they are all executed in a decent manner, at least at the level of Qi Refining High Stage's combat. What is even more peculiar is that the puppets are extremely flexible in their movements and have changeable tactics.
He is worthy of being a Lineage under the Myriad Puppet Sect. Although he is in decline, it is said that Clan Leader's father, who has the highest cultivation level, is only at the level of Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and brother Clan Leader is only at the elementary level of Foundation Establishment. Yes, he is the age of Lei Dong. He is not too young, and with the years spent in seclusion in Cave Heaven Blessed Land, he has already passed his "100th birthday". Unless he is extremely advanced, if he is still Qi Refining Stage, he may have died of old age. And if Foundation Establishment Realm is at least an old man with a gray beard, how can he still look like a handsome young man like he is now?
However, it is indeed a very remarkable thing that Lei Dong can cultivate to Nascent Soul Mid-tier at his age. I am afraid that even among this Great Gan Continent, not many can be found.
"Giggle, cousin, look at my flame cannon." The girl suddenly laughed coquettishly. With a movement of her mind, the pink puppet's arm suddenly opened, revealing a gloomy cannon barrel. With a bang, while flames were spitting out, an iron ball the size of a fist shot out.
The young man's bronze puppet hurriedly raised his halberd and slashed, but the iron ball was too fast and hit it hard on the chest. Not only that, the iron ball turned out to be a bomb, exploding into a cloud of fire. The powerful shock wave sent the bronze puppet flying backwards. After a few feet, it was knocked to the ground heavily. After struggling for a few times, it couldn't stand up anymore.
The young man was so anxious that he hurriedly flew to the puppet. After checking it, his face turned darker and darker. "Gongsun Qing, you went too far. You secretly installed a flame cannon on the puppet and broke my Voltron."
"Cousin, didn't you say that your Voltron is invincible in attack and defense? Why did it break after just one small flaming cannonball?" The girl named Gongsun Qing said with a sweet smile, "It seems that my pink girl is more powerful."
"Gongsun Qing, you, you cheated, this doesn't count." The young man didn't seem to be very open-minded, and his face turned pale with anxiety. "You installed a privately installed flame cannon, let's fight again."
"Luo Hongqing, you don't even know how to fight with war, don't you? Why don't you Qi Ingestion, let's fight again." Gongsun Qing pouted and said dissatisfied, "Don't you just want to waste those hundred Spirit Stone? Come, let your Voltron stand up, let's continue, I promise not to use the flame cannon."
The quarrel between boys and girls reminded Lei Dong of the time when he had just joined the sect and was still very young. Although his cultivation level at that time was very low, he was full of fighting spirit and passion every day. However, Yin Sha Sect was not as "friendly" as here, and it was a place where people could die easily.
But now that Lei Dong thinks about it, he still misses his youth. Although the competition mechanism within the sect is cruel and realistic, it also cultivated Lei Dong's sense of crisis. This is also the basis for his ability to save his life when he is struggling outside. Because the outside world is more cruel and realistic than inside the sect.
Just as they were arguing, Lei Dong had transformed into a Black Mist and landed in the largest courtyard. The detection feedback from his spiritual mind allowed him to confirm that the object he was looking for was in this courtyard. He saw an old man with white beard and hair but a rosy complexion, lying leisurely on a folding chair, resting with his eyes half-closed.
On both sides stands a young girl in a green dress, slowly swinging a folding fan. The young girl's skin is white and can be broken by blows, and her demeanor is as soft as a bone. The only regret is that her eyes seem a little dull.
Lei Dong was shocked. I didn't sense the presence of two people here just now? I immediately swept away my spiritual thoughts and suddenly realized that these two young girls were not real living creatures, but two breathless bodies. Puppet. This made Lei Dong's eyes light up. Unexpectedly, the development of this down-and-out puppet Lineage, Puppet Technique, was so fake that it looked like the real thing.
"Alas~"
Lei Dong walked leisurely beside the small lake in the courtyard. He put his hands on his back and admired the delicate and clear lotus flowers in the lake. He couldn't help but think of his and Wan Yan's home, Warm Fragrance Small Abode. Various flowers are blooming there, and the lake is also covered with lotus. However, a hundred years have passed in a blink of an eye, but the days when Wan Yan and Warm Fragrance Small Abode are reunited are very few.
"Who is it?" The leisurely old man suddenly jumped up from the leisure chair, staring nervously at the tall, yet mysterious and powerful figure of Lei Dong, and couldn't help but tremble under his feet.
