It Feels So Good to Have a Nascent Soul!
After those Thought Imprint were engraved, the Consciousness receded, and the new bodies of the Puppet Souls controlled by Bai Qiuran, Tang Ruo, and Tu Shuwei were slowly unlocked and awakened.
Under a command from a higher level, the Artificial Purple Mansion within the body began to operate on its own. True Essence gradually flowed throughout the mechanical body, and energy began to illuminate Runes. The Souls within the Puppet's Spiritual Platform also began to slowly connect with and adapt to the new body.
At that very moment, Bai Qiuran, who was located within the Shadow Dimension, suddenly clapped her hands.
An invisible force dissipated, and time in the entire world suddenly stopped at that moment.
Everything froze, except for Bai Qiuran himself and Tang Ruowei, whom he was holding.
In the frozen spacetime, Bai Qiuran drew a dimensional portal leading directly to the cabin. Before her were six newly formed mechanical Puppet. Bai Qiuran approached the mechanical Puppet where her blank Souls resided and said to Tang Ruowei, "Use Thought Splitting to Body Seizure that blank Souls."
Tang Ruowei nodded, and the master and disciple simultaneously used the Thought Splitting Technique. The split-off mind easily crushed the wisp of Puppet mind used as a smokescreen within the Souls, and then took over the Puppet body in a substitution.
After completing this maneuver, Bai Qiuran closed the dimensional rift and deactivated the time stop. In the blink of an eye, before the Puppet could even notice, he and Tang Ruowei had successfully invaded the Puppet's minds and entered their bodies.
As he watched the Nascent Soul gradually awaken within his Purple Mansion, Bai Qiuran felt tears streaming down his face. Although the Puppet's body lacked tear glands, he silently shed tears in his heart.
It feels so good to have the feeling of Nascent Soul!
His Spiritual Sense eagerly connected with the mass-produced Nascent Soul within the Artificial Purple Mansion, directing it to raise its hands and feet and perform various movements.
Number 103.
"Hey-hey."
Bai Qiuran let out a silly laugh.
Number 103!
A mechanical voice rang in his ear, increasing in volume.
"Ah?"
Bai Qiuran came to her senses and saw a mechanical Puppet standing in front of her, which was taller and more intricately designed than herself.
"I understand your joy, but now that you've joined this glorious ranks, you must abide by the rules."
Seeing that Bai Qiuran come to her senses, the tall mechanical Puppet looked down at her.
"You'd better control your emotions right now, and then head over to the Spaceship to assemble. You'll be receiving training to learn how to become a qualified Machine God vassal."
Three months later, on a battlefield on an alien planet in another world, a squad of about one hundred mechanical Puppet is facing an attack by a group of Strange Beasts.
These Strange Beasts are the native race of this alien planet. They are fierce and robust, with an average length of thirty to forty meters. Their bodies are covered with thick carapaces, and they can also use the energy stored in their bodies to spew out high-heat rays for attack.
However, they are not considered Intelligent Lifeforms; their level of thought is only that of wild beasts, only they are too ferocious, which has brought great difficulties to the establishment of alien colonies by the civilization of this world.
The civilization of this world appealed to the Machine God for help, and the great Machine God dispatched a squad of Heavenly Gods warriors to come to the alien planet and wipe out these monsters.
These monsters, their bodies covered in carapace and with a single, lanternfish-like tentacle hanging from their heads, emerged from burrows on all fours, relentlessly charging towards the makeshift position constructed by the mechanical Puppet squad. Each one possessed the power to rival Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators, and the total number of monsters inhabiting the entire alien planet was at least fifty thousand. Now, the planet's native monsters, led by their Chief, were all surging towards the mechanical Puppet squad, intending to annihilate these "invaders."
However, each mechanical Puppet, with its Artificial Purple Mansion, mass-produced Nascent Soul, and Runes components, possesses at least the abilities of Spirit Severing Stage Cultivators. Even if they abandon their weapons and engage in a simple physical contest with these monsters, these monsters are no match for them.
If each mechanical Puppet's mechanical arm were to strike at full speed and at maximum output, it could blast at least a row of monsters to pieces.
Not to mention now, these mechanical Puppet have built a solid position using Runes machinery. The mechanical Puppet, which have been heavily enhanced with firepower, have also turned into metal bunkers fixed to the ground, with Runes Cannon on their shoulders constantly pouring firepower in all directions.
The pile of bones around them grew higher and higher, but the commander of this squad was clearly not satisfied with just that.
"Number 103, Number One-Zero-Four."
He turned and gave commands to the two Puppet in the group.
"You're specialized in decapitation; go find the Chief of these beasts and eliminate him."
"Yes, Commander."
Two almost identical golden Puppet stepped out from the ranks.
They broke free from the ranks of mechanical Puppet, flames shooting from their backs, and soared into the sky at incredible speed.
The beasts that saw them all stopped in their tracks, tilted their heads back, opened their mouths, and spewed out powerful beams of heat, but the two Puppet nimbly dodged them all with their various tactical maneuvers.
Both Puppet were designed for decapitation and were equipped with special scanning devices to detect important enemy targets. Using these devices, they quickly locked onto their target—a Behemoths standing in the center of the herd, about fifty meters long, with its carapace glowing red.
They passed through the clouds in the sky, making a huge arc, and rushed towards the battlefield. Two huge decapitation swords engraved with deep red runes popped out from the sides of the legs of Puppet Runes. 103, while a huge Runes sniper cannon popped out from the back of Puppet One-Zero-Four.
Number 103, wielding swords in both hands, moved like a spiral, carrying sharp blades of energy, and charged directly into the horde of beasts, heading towards the location of the beast Chief.
The beast Chief also Consciousness the danger. It retreated while growling softly, and the light bulb-like organ on its head flickered, emitting waves of signals, commanding the surrounding beasts to pounce on Puppet Number 103 and hinder its attack.
However, at that moment, a torrential downpour began, with countless energy projectiles raining down from the sky, sweeping away all the beasts that approached Number 103.
Ahead, the firepower of Puppet One-Zero-Four cleared a Great Dao. Without hesitation, No. 103 sprinted at full speed and arrived in front of the Chief of the beast horde, raising the decapitation sword in his hand.
These beasts were indeed very strong for their individual abilities, but they were not even in the same league as the mechanical Puppet squad. The Chief the beast pack, whose strength was only barely equivalent to Golden Core Stage Cultivators, had no power to resist the No. 103 Puppet, whose strength was firmly above the Spirit Severing Stage.
The nascent Nascent Soul within his Purple Mansion Deadly Lands provided True Essence, and Number 103 felt more powerful than ever before, feeling omnipotent!
In a single exchange, Puppet No. 103 severed its four limbs with one sword and cleaved its head in two with another.
The beast Chief's body fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust. The chain reaction caused by the Chief's death turned the beasts into a disorganized mob, scattering and fleeing in all directions.
Number 103 casually killed several wild beasts that fled from his side, then stood on the huge corpse of the beast Chief and raised his decapitation sword to the sky.
Long live the Machine God!
His voice echoed through the mechanical Puppet's communication channels, and after a moment, the voice of the mechanical Puppet squad's Commander came through.
"Well done, Number 103 and Number One-Zero-Four. We've once again spread the Glory of the Machine God to another planet. Also, Number 103 and One-Zero-Four, your achievements have met the standards for promotion. When you return to the base, choose your promotion path and apply for promotion."
