Machine Puppet Operator

"You talk as if you've already won."

Bai Xuxiang stepped forward and said, "Come on, you want to resist to the end, right? Now I'll give you two choices: you take on me and my brother one-on-one, or my brother and I gang up on you."

Bai Moxue didn't speak, but he also took a step forward and came to Bai Xuxiang's side, making his stance clear.

"Hehe."

The Man in Black Demonic Cultivator chuckled and continued, "Your information was given to you by that woman, right? Too bad, you could seduce her, and so can I. You should have already noticed when you came up that I was setting up an array."

He stomped his foot.

Want to know what kind of Formation I've set up?

Bai Moxue looked down, then looked up and said, "It's nothing more than some Formation that borrow power from Heaven and Earth to amplify one's combat strength. What other tricks can you play? You should have realized from the battle in the Principal's Office that I am far superior to you in terms of Formation mastery. Your Killing Array, trapping formations, and bewildering formations will only allow me to seize control and manipulate you in the opposite direction."

The Demonic Cultivator was speechless, daring not to utter a word of anger.

"Hmph, say whatever you want."

After holding it in for a long time, he finally said something.

"We're going to have to fight eventually anyway, let's see who's the best!"

He stomped his foot, and the sky and the ground immediately emitted a blood-red light. This red light peeked out from the cracks between the earth and the clouds, forming a huge Magic Array that stood opposite each other from afar.

Bai Moxue looked up and saw that although the Formation was huge, the sequence of Runes was very simple and straightforward. Having been mentored by two giants of the Demonic Sect, he recognized the Formation's function almost at a glance.

"To forcibly seize the Earth Qi to empower oneself?"

"That's right!"

The Demonic Cultivator retorted sharply, "I admit that I am inferior to you siblings in terms of Arts, Divine Ability powers, and Formation Cultivation Technique, but my advantage lies in my cultivation level. And if you want to seize control of this Formation, you have no other way but to suppress me with your cultivation!"

A halo appeared behind his head, and his Immortal Light Treasure Form fully unfolded. A Reincarnation of reincarnation, radiating extreme malevolence, circled around him. Using the Earth Qi, this Demonic Cultivator unleashed a Divine Ability that was the simplest and most direct for Immortal Venerable.

"Heaven and Earth Manifestation!"

Using the power of the Earth Qi, the Demonic Cultivator's body swelled up, quickly growing taller than the mountain range itself. His head broke through the clouds, and he bent down, as if True God in the heavens was looking down at the mortal Mortal Realm.

The Animal Path's Reincarnation that surrounded him also attached itself to him. With the blessing of Reincarnation, this Demonic Cultivator completely transformed into a Demon God within the Animal Path, with bull horns, a tiger's head, pig's teeth, and a leopard's tail, wielding a huge steel fork, looking extremely ferocious.

A raging demonic fire burned on his body, and as the Demon God moved, sparks fell from the sky, easily igniting the forests on the mountain.

Lilith gripped Bai Moxue's sleeve tightly, holding her breath, while Bai Moxue and Bai Xuxiang looked up at the enormous Demon God.

"His creativity stops there."

Bai Xuxiang pointed and asked, "Moxue, should you go or should I?"

"I'll do it. Didn't your thing just go back to the factory for major repairs not long ago?"

Bai Moxue sighed.

"Even though the creativity is lacking, their skill level is undeniable, so we have to show them some respect... Machine Puppet, in position!"

With his call, a Magic Array appeared in the sky, and then a tall, slender, silver-white Machine Puppet slowly emerged from the Magic Array. With a loud thud, it landed on the ground amidst a tremor.

Its height was only slightly shorter than that of the Demon God transformed by the Demonic Cultivator Heaven and Earth Manifestation; it was still incredibly tall, towering into the clouds.

"Um?"

The Demon God was startled and asked in an echoing voice, "You're actually Machine Puppet Operator?"

Machine Puppet Operator: This is a new profession that emerged during the life-or-death struggle between the Immortal Realm and the Shepherds on the upper reaches of the Void River.

Originally, Machine Puppet did not require operators, because all Machine Puppet were considered as an independent race and weapon, and were commanded by the highest will of the Machine Puppet race, the Machine God.

However, in order to deal with the Shepherds, the Immortal Realm, the Machine God, and the Heavenly Dao joined forces to forge Three Venerables Giant God- level Machine Puppet in the World Factory on the Void River. For a Machine Puppet of this level, even the will of the Machine God alone was somewhat strained to control just one. Therefore, during the war, a group of Immortals from the Immortal Realm were selected. They received training from the Machine God and became the machine puppet operators who assisted the Machine God in controlling the Giant God Automaton Machine Puppet Operator.

After the war, this profession also emerged. In order to help Immortals cope with the difficulties of fighting against various powerful enemies, such as fighting against enemies of Gigantification size, or fighting in areas with extremely harsh environmental conditions, the Heavenly Works Workshop of the Immortal Realm, together with the Machine God, developed Machine Puppet that Immortals could ride and control.

These Machine Puppet vary in combat power, ranging from those at the Houtu Realm to those at the Imperial Heaven Realm Emperor-level Machine Puppet. When operating them, Immortals need to separate a portion of their thoughts and enter the Machine Puppet's Spiritual Platform, while simultaneously entering the Machine Puppet's body to control it, in order to unleash the Machine Puppet's combat power.

These specially customized Machine Puppet are immune to pain, injury, energy consumption, and meridian damage, allowing them to fight recklessly using all sorts of life-or-death tactics. Therefore, their combat power is generally stronger than that of Cultivators of the same level. However, becoming Machine Puppet Operator is not such a simple matter.

Every Machine Puppet Operator undergoes rigorous selection and testing in the Immortal Realm before being granted the qualification. Furthermore, Machine Puppet mounts are not something that can be bought with money; only those who have been granted the qualification can retrieve their own exclusive Machine Puppet from the Machine Puppet Divine Court.

Bai Xuxiang and Bai Moxue, siblings, had already passed the test to Machine Puppet Operator, and their Machine Puppet were personally modified by Bai Qiuran, making them the highest-level Machine Puppet they could currently control.

With their current strength and willpower, the siblings are still somewhat strained to control the Immortal Emperor-level Machine Puppet. Therefore, Bai Moxue's "First Snow Beyond the Frontier" is comparable in strength to an ordinary Immortal Venerable Reincarnation.

After summoning the Machine Puppet, Bai Moxue leaped into Machine Puppet direction, and the silver-white Machine Puppet opened its cockpit and swallowed Bai Moxue into its body.

The Runes on the Machine Puppet lit up one after another. The Nascent Soul created by the highest-level factory under the Machine God's command stirred its True Essence, slowly filling the Machine Puppet's "bloodline" with pale blue energy.

Then, blue light shone from the Machine Puppet's eyes, and it raised its head.

"Come on, Demonic Cultivator."

It reached behind its back, where a massive alloy Giant Sword sprang from the Machine Puppet's body, which it pulled out and held in its hand.

"Bring it on!"
