An Elder Who Wanted to Curse

Xiao Han was naturally unaware of Yao Chen and the others' schemes, but he would probably be happy to offer his help if they came to him.

However, Xiao Han's focus is not on fighting and killing right now. He is working overtime in the secret room to catch up on his work, while some disciples Elder of the Langya Pavilion are watching him.

"Did you see clearly?" Xiao Han's hands kept moving as he spoke, "The most important part of the puppets of the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect is the puppet core, which is also the key to their operation."

As Xiao Han spoke, he bent his hand into a claw and pierced through the puppet's seemingly indestructible exterior with a single strike. A fist-sized, Light Blue Sphere appeared in his hand, shimmering with an eerie luster.

The moment the sphere was lost, the puppet's once bright eyes instantly lost their light.

"Understood?" Xiao Han turned his gaze to the crowd, who all nodded.

"The size and position of this puppet's core are not fixed. As long as you have the ability, you can change it at will." Xiao Han clapped his hands.

"I have taught you most of the key Pavilion Master; the rest is up to you to figure out on your own."

"I'll be supervising from the sidelines!"

"Yes!" the others all answered with delight. Then came a flurry of activity, with a continuous clattering sound.

Xiao Han's instruction on puppet making was not a spur-of-the-moment decision; on the contrary, he had no intention of hiding anything.

From the moment Yi Huang prepared to develop the puppet industry, Xiao Han knew that this technology absolutely had to be passed on. If he didn't find a few tools for himself, would he have to keep making puppets forever?

Therefore, after a simple selection and assessment, Xiao Han selected a group of qualified Langya Pavilion members to study, which led to the scene just now.

While Xiao Han was teaching puppet making, a piece of news was quietly circulating in Central Plains.

"Have you heard? It seems Langya Pavilion is going to hold an auction?"

"An auction? Isn't Langya Pavilion not very good at that kind of thing?"

"Sigh! These days, even the big powers don't leave us a way to survive; they'll snatch any business they can get!"

"Have they influenced you?"

"No."

"Then what the hell are you talking about!"

"Did they say what they're going to auction?"

"It looks like some kind of Battle Puppet? It's weird."

"..."

Many people were puzzled by this news. What's so special about a puppet?

It seems that very few people in Central Plains can rely on puppets to conquer the world; if you don't have enough strength, you're just giving away freebies.

Only those forces that participated in the Space Trading Fair back then knew that the Ice Saint had probably digested the inheritance of that Dou Sheng from the Ten Thousand Puppets Sect, but it was unknown whether the other party had mastered the method of creating Dou Sheng Realm puppets.

However, many forces are preparing to send people to participate in the auction hosted by the Langya Pavilion in order to gather intelligence.

At this moment, at the Starfall Pavilion.

"Battle Puppet auction?" Xiao Yan was quite curious after hearing this news. Was Central Plains really that advanced that puppetry had become an industry?

"What, you're interested?" Elder Yao glanced at Xiao Yan, who was eager to try, with amusement.

The latter hesitated slightly. "Teacher, won't this reveal your presence?"

Since arriving in Central Plains, Xiao Yan has been extremely cautious. Even now, he has been burying himself in cultivation at the Starfall Pavilion and has remained secluded from the world.

The Elder Yao chuckled nonchalantly, "Don't worry, how could it be exposed like that? You're hardly a celebrity!"

"You can just go with Feng Xian."

"We'll need you to participate in the Four Directions Pavilion Assembly later to help our Starfall Pavilion gain recognition. How can we possibly avoid showing our faces in public?"

"Okay, teacher!"

Xiao Yan was somewhat excited. He also had puppets. Before he and Elder Yao left the Black-Corner Region, they killed Han Feng.

Before leaving, they also robbed some forces in the Hejiao Domain, among which they obtained a method for refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet from the Demon Flame Valley.

And,

Based on the records in the Scroll, Xiao Yan successfully crafted an Earth Demon Puppet with the strength of a Dou Zong. He was eager to see how his Battle Puppet Earth Demon Puppet that was about to be auctioned.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Langya City.

The newly built Langya Auction House was bustling with people, and representatives of various powers could be seen walking into the Auction House from the VIP entrance with haughty expressions.

Although a large crowd had gathered at the entrance of the Auction House, no one dared to cause trouble. They all behaved themselves, clearly aware of the consequences.

The First Minister of the Ming Dynasty

Xiao Yan followed behind Venerable Feng, looking around with the same curiosity. He had been in Central Plains for two years, but Xiao Yan was probably the first time he had appeared openly in a crowd.

Many people clearly recognized Venerable Feng as the leader of the Starfall Pavilion, one of the Four Directions Pavilion, and quickly gave way.

At the same time, Xiao Yan could also feel many probing gazes sweeping over him.

Clearly, people were extremely curious about this unfamiliar face, and many even speculated that this young man might be Venerable Feng's newly accepted disciple.

The moment the Starfall Pavilion group appeared at the Auction House entrance, the Langya Pavilion disciples, who had already received instructions, relayed the message inside.

"A strange young man?" Xiao Han stroked his chin. He was right; that should be Xiao Yan.

"Someone come here!" Xiao Han called out.

"Pavilion Master!" Before long, the Elder in charge of the Auction House appeared in front of Xiao Han.

"What are your orders?"

"Add one more item to the auction!" Xiao Han took out a crimson Scroll and handed it to the bewildered Elder. "Familiarize yourself with the contents of this Dou Techniques."

"Let's put this Dou Techniques at the end of the auction; you can arrange the order yourself. uu Reading."

"Yes!" After the Elder from the Langya Pavilion left, he glanced at the Dou Techniques in his hand with a strange look.

They didn't understand what their Pavilion Master was up to. If he only wanted to improve the quality of the auction, those precious Battle Puppet would have been enough. Why go through all this trouble?

However, the Pavilion Master's orders must be obeyed. The Elder, unaware of the situation, opened the Scroll, examined it carefully, and soon his brows furrowed deeply.

The Dou Techniques that Xiao Han taught this Elder was none other than the one he had obtained from Venerable Skyfire — the Five Round Separating Fire Method.

The reason this Elder was chosen to be the head of the Auction House was not only due to his ability and luck, but also because of his vision that far surpassed that of ordinary people.

The moment he finished reading the introduction to the Five Round Separating Fire Method, he felt a sense of dilemma.

He had no doubt about the power of this Dou Techniques. Even using only five different types of high-level Beast Fire, he could easily unleash the power of Earth Rank Advanced Dou Techniques.

However, what troubled him was the seemingly "redundant" introduction that followed—if four Exotic Fire were used, the power would be comparable to Heaven Tier Dou Technique.

Upon seeing this introduction, the Elder couldn't help but want to curse. What a joke! In all these years, their Langya Pavilion has only had four kinds of Exotic Fire. This thing is even rarer than Heaven Tier Dou Technique.

And...

Damn, how could one person possibly contain four Exotic Fire at the same time? Aren't they afraid of dying a violent death? Do they need to borrow a flame from someone else to use this Dou Techniques?

Shaking his head, the Elder of the Langya Pavilion put the introduction out of his mind. He'd see which rich (or foolish) person was willing to help him boost his business later!
