Ideal Too Shallow, Power... Too Shallow
The Soldier Puppet he's using now are no ordinary men.
At the center is the Qin Clan's [Triple Profound Dome Grand Array] for main defense, with the [Circumference Spirit Gathering Array] on both sides providing continuous energy.
Behind it, two [Qiankun Spirit Gathering Array] embrace the [Spirit Power Furnace], forming an energy cycle.
The legs, arms, chest, and other key parts are then fitted with detachable equipment, each piece of equipment being equivalent to a complete miniature Soldier Puppet.
In other words, what appears to be a single Soldier Puppet is actually assembled from dozens of Soldier Puppet.
Within each of the five fingers is Miniature Spirit Light Cannon developed by the Third Sister, capable of unleashing various techniques, including the Wanjie Thunder Furnace First Gear.
This configuration is specifically designed to deal with Prodigy like Chu Wujiu.
Bringing it out now is definitely a bit like bullying people.
Feng Qingjue was not discouraged. He thought to himself, "It's the Qin Clan's secret technique of Soldier Puppet. The opponent is a summoning-type Talisman Cultivator. He's weak in close combat, so it's normal that his summoned creatures are stronger. As long as I defeat it, I'll win!"
Thinking this, Borrowing Strength to drift back several steps, his eyes serious, and then he shouted:
"Ice River Hanging Upside Down!"
Buzz--!
A surge of powerful Spiritual Power swept out, instantly freezing the ground and sky above the arena with thick frost. The biting cold even solidified the air!
In the next instant, countless sharp ice shards, like an inverted forest, burst forth from both the ground and the sky, covering every inch of the arena.
Since the sword won't work, let's use Spirit Art!
However, faced with this frozen predicament, the Soldier Puppet neither dodged nor evaded, but instead slammed its fists down!
"Boom!!"
A violent shockwave, visible to the naked eye, erupted from its center, shattering the still-developing Frost Domain like fragile glass, sending ice crystals flying everywhere!
Feng Qingjue's pupils contracted slightly, but instead of retreating, his aura surged once more!
"Sword Intent Furnace, Second Gear!"
The longsword in her hand hummed, and the furnace within her body frantically devoured the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, transforming it into boundless Sword Intent.
When the Sword Intent reached its peak, he unleashed a strike without hesitation, a strike that seemed capable of severing the very foundation of the Great Dao:
"Dao Slash!"
If the characteristics of the Taichu God-Burial Sword are great power but slow speed, then the Dao Slash, which does not utilize the Principle, is fast and has a wide range.
The scorching heat of the furnace and the sharp Sword Intent merged perfectly, condensing into Sword Qi several meters long that shot out into the air and headed straight for Qin Wangchuan at an extremely fast speed.
A knowledgeable person in the audience exclaimed in shock, "It's here! The Dao Slash combined with the Dao-Slaying Technique—no one should be able to withstand this move!"
Faced with this attack that could eclipse even the Prodigy, the Soldier Puppet finally reacted differently.
Suddenly, blinding Lightning Light erupted from its body, crackling and popping. A terrifying aura, seemingly unyielding through Myriad Tribulations, spread out, instantly evaporating the remaining chill!
Wanjie Thunder Furnace, First Gear.
Amidst the swirling Lightning Light, the Soldier Puppet advanced instead of retreating.
A metallic hand reached out with perfect precision and grabbed the blazing Sword Qi that was powerful enough to sever the Dao Rhyme!
Then, under the gaze of countless incredulous eyes, it suddenly exerted force with its five fingers—
"Bang!!"
The Dao-Slaying Sword that cleaved through the Dao was crushed! It turned into countless fireflies-like specks of light and vanished without a trace.
The "Dao Slash" technique, a secret art passed down from the Qin Clan, was actually crushed by a puppet!
When had anyone ever seen such a scene before?
They all stared blankly at Qin Wangchuan, wondering who this person was.
But upon closer inspection, he was stunned.
Qin Wangchuan, who had somehow already sat on the chair formed from the Soldier Puppet, gently shook his head, his tone carrying an indescribable meaning, as if stating a perfectly obvious fact:
"The ideals are too shallow, and the strength... is also too shallow."
As soon as he finished speaking, he casually raised his hand, and a Talisman Paper with a metallic sheen floated out, hovering precisely in front of the Soldier Puppet.
The Soldier Puppet raised his hand and shook it.
"Buzz!"
The Talisman Paper instantly expanded and deformed, transforming into a longsword that flowed with a cold, sharp light.
The sword was thick and heavy, yet it exuded a chillingly sharp aura.
What stunned everyone even more was that after the Soldier Puppet gripped the sword, his body slightly lowered, and his right arm was pulled back.
They made a perfectly clear starting stance.
That all-severing, all-destroying intent surged wildly—
This is precisely the Dao Slash!
It was even purer, colder, and more... chilling than when Feng Qingjue used it!
Just as Feng Qingjue astonished, that cold and pure Dao-Slaying Sword, far beyond her comprehension, had already broken through the air and attacked, its speed exceeding imagination!
"Laugh!"
The Sword Qi swept across, slicing her body in the blink of an eye.
Under the stunned gazes of the crowd below, the figure of "Feng Qingjue" struck by the Sword Qi blurred and vanished into thin air like a bubble.
"Fake!"
"It's an afterimage?! When?!"
Where is the real body?
Countless gazes, including those of Son of Luck like Gu Tianye, held their breath and frantically scanned the arena.
In the end, everyone was horrified to discover that a ghostly figure had silently appeared behind Qin Wangchuan!
The longsword in her hand, imbued with all her inner strength, transformed into a cold star, piercing straight towards Qin Wangchuan's back!
To catch the thief, first catch the king!
Since the Soldier Puppet is incredibly powerful, defeating the controller is the only chance of victory!
"You're quick-witted." Qin Wangchuan remained seated in the chair formed by the Soldier Puppet, without even turning around, offering only a calm comment. "But, it's useless."
Before the words were finished, another dark, shadowy Soldier Puppet appeared out of thin air like a ghost, precisely blocking the attacking Feng Qingjue and Qin Wangchuan.
However, to everyone's surprise, Feng Qingjue ignored the sudden appearance of the second Soldier Puppet and charged forward without slowing down, as if he wanted to perish together with it!
But just as she drew near, the second Soldier Puppet moved—
It ignored the menacing "Feng Qingjue" before it, and without turning its head, its large metal hand, wrapped in Lightning Light, grabbed at a seemingly empty space beside it with lightning speed!
"Buzz!"
With a resounding tremor as space was forcibly compressed, a figure violently twisted and solidified amidst the Lightning Light—
The real Feng Qingjue was actually dragged out of hiding!
She was lifted into the air by the Soldier Puppet's single hand, the tip of her sword hanging limply in his hand, her whole being like a delicate doll being manipulated at will.
That stunningly beautiful face was filled with shock and disbelief.
And that reckless "Feng Qingjue" is now like ice and snow under the sun, quickly dissipating and fading away.
Gu Tianye, looking down at the ice crystals drifting in the sky, suddenly realized. "An illusion created using ice crystals?"
"What a brilliant feint! The sneak attack is a ruse; the real plan is to use an illusion to draw attention while the real body stealthily moves in, allowing for a close-range attack followed by a fatal strike."
"Pity..."
Unfortunately, all her schemes and maneuvers were as transparent as glass to Qin Wangchuan and his Soldier Puppet, easily seen through and manipulated at will.
Everyone thought that someone as strong Feng Qingjue could crush anyone he faced.
Unexpectedly, this Talisman Cultivator named Qing Wangchuan was so powerful!
At this moment, she is the challenger.
Jiang Yan, who was high up, was completely dumbfounded.
He stared at Feng Qingjue's true form on the arena, his Soldier Puppet held captive and unable to move, and couldn't help but swallow hard, his heart pounding.
"Feng Qingjue is a woman who uses every trick in the book, her tricks constantly shifting between reality and illusion. Even I was dazzled by her, thinking she was about to succeed... But my Eldest Brother just sat there without moving an inch. Not only did he see through everything long ago, but he also casually had the Soldier Puppet expose her true form!"
"That's incredible! Eldest Brother is just too strong!"
He looked at Qin Wangchuan's still indifferent back, his eyes filled with awe and admiration.
At the same time, he secretly wondered, ' My Eldest Brother said he's at the bottom of the Wen Dao Palace, so how strong must the people in the Wen Dao Palace be?'
Ye Jianwei silently to the side.
