But the combined attacks of Qin Tiexin and Phantom were too close.
The hammer head hit, and the shadow slapped it away with a palm; the heavy shield hit, and Qin Tiexin kicked it back. The puppet's attack power is not weak, but every attack is cut off in advance, and it cannot form an effective offensive at all.
Qin Tiexin's attacks continue.
Mountain-Shaking Steps cooperated with Burst Step, and his figure kept changing angles around the puppet. Every move was accompanied by a shadow, and every stop was a powerful blow. There were more and more cracks on the deck, and the repair Spirit Rune completely collapsed. The buffer layer was exposed, losing the protection of the deck, and the internal Spirit Rune structure began to be overloaded on a large scale.
The final blow.
Qin Tiexin kicked the ground with his left foot and stood up. Arhat Phantom followed him like a shadow, holding his fists at his waist. Qin Tiexin twisted his waist and turned around in the air, raised his right leg high, and aimed his heel at the biggest crack in the puppet's chest. Hills and Ravines Thrust Kick--The shadow's giant foot overlapped with his right leg, and he kicked the repaired spot heavily.
The sound of the deck breaking was deep and muffled.
The repaired Spirit Rune exploded, and the surrounding old Spirit Rune was torn together, and metal fragments flew in all directions. The entire breastplate was dented in the middle, and then began to shatter from the depression, with cracks spreading in all directions like a spider web. The buffer layer was kicked through, the internal Spirit Stone energy supply circuit was broken, and the puppet giant's movements completely froze.
The two-foot-tall metal giant slowly tilted amidst a burst of creaking sounds, and then crashed to the ground.
The ground was shaken by the impact. Dust was raised, gravel was scattered, the chains of the hammer were scattered on the ground, and the heavy shield fell off the puppet's right arm and clattered to the ground.
The control hatch behind the chest armor was blown open, and Meng Qingxin rolled out of it. He lay on the ground panting heavily, his whole body soaked in sweat, and the dark blue sect clothes could squeeze out water. His face was so pale that there was almost no blood, and the overdraft of spiritual power and the violent shock left him without the strength to stand up.
"Amitabha Buddha, I'm offended." Qin Tiexin raised a palm with one hand and saluted him.
Arhat Phantom slowly dissipated and turned into countless pale golden light spots, which were absorbed into Qin Tiexin's body. He felt the state of Dantian and his ventricle. The consumption of spiritual power was about 30%, and the consumption of Qi and Blood was also 30 to 40%. About. Including the consumption of the battle itself, the total consumption was probably more than 40%. The consumption of a phantom was slightly higher than he expected, and this was without a long-term continuous attack. It seems that the trump card Arhat Dharma Aspect Body is currently more suitable for a quick battle, not a long battle.
Ling Shuyao looked at Qin Tiexin's back as he retracted his shadow, thoughtfully.
The moment the phantom appeared, her Bright Eyes Break Techniques started functioning instinctively. This was a habit she had developed since she was a child. When she saw anything that might be related to combat, her talent would automatically analyze its weaknesses. But she couldn't analyze anything about that phantom, which was seamless and invulnerable.
How many secrets does this person have?
Imperial Pivot Pavilion's people had gathered around Meng Qingxin. Two disciples helped him up, one took his pulse to check the degree of spiritual overdraft, and the other stuffed a Qi Recovery Pill into his mouth.
"It's nothing serious. My spiritual power is overdrawn and my physical energy is exhausted." The disciple who took the pulse breathed a sigh of relief and said to Meng Qingchen.
Meng Qingchen nodded, his face didn't look good, but he didn't have an attack.
He stood in silence for a moment, walked up to Qin Tiexin, took out a scimitar from the storage ring, and handed it over with both hands. The scimitar blade was moon white, with a very thin ice attribute Spirit Rune embedded on the back of the blade. It was a Middle-Grade Law Artifact in good condition.
"The master is superior in skill, and Meng is convinced. This is the agreed apology, please accept it, master."
Qin Tiexin took the scimitar, glanced at it, and took it with one hand.
"Sorry to disturb you three, Imperial Pivot Pavilion will leave now." Meng Qingchen clasped his fists, turned around and prepared to lead people away.
"Benefactor Meng, wait a moment."
Qin Tiexin stopped him. He took out a Storage Bag from his arms and threw it towards Meng Qingchen.
Meng Qingchen subconsciously caught it and opened it. Inside, there was a complete puppet drive core and a lot of puppet parts, including gears, joint plates, Spirit Rune pieces, everything. Although the parts were obviously broken and then rearranged, each piece was very complete, and when assembled together, a complete puppet should be made.
"This is?" Meng Qingchen raised his head.
"Donor Meng acted upright, and we admire him. The things in the treasure house are also useful to us, so please don't part with them." Qin Tiexin raised his hand with one hand, "But this drive core and puppet parts are given to Donor Meng. With your Puppet Technique attainments, I think you can learn some ways from them."
Meng Qingchen held Storage Bag and was stunned for a while.
"Master, these things--"
"It was Donor Liu and Donor Ling who took it out." Qin Tiexin tilted his head towards the two people behind him, "Thank them if Meng Shi wants to thank them."
Meng Qingchen turned around and bowed deeply to Liu Suifeng and Ling Shuyao. "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Liu and Fellow Daoist Ling. If the three of you need help from the Imperial Pivot Pavilion in the future, feel free to come to Meng. Imperial Pivot Pavilion will never refuse."
Liu Suifeng waved his hand and said "little things, little things", but he couldn't suppress the curvature of the corners of his mouth. Ling Shuyao nodded slightly as a response.
Imperial Pivot Pavilion and his team helped the unconscious Meng Qingxin onto the stretcher, put his puppet back into the space array plate, took the bag of parts and gradually walked away along the gravel road between the hills, and disappeared behind the rocky mountain.
When they were far away, Liu Suifeng finally couldn't hold it any longer.
"Master, we obviously won, why do we still give them things?"
Qin Tiexin pulled up the Zen staff from the ground and put it on his shoulder. "One more friend is better than one more enemy."
Ling Shuyao took over the conversation and said in a calm voice, "Master did the right thing. They were defeated and didn't get what they wanted, so they will inevitably have grudges in their hearts. Master gave them the drive core and parts. Not only will they not hate us, but they will be grateful to us. Because we win first and then give away, not just give it at the beginning."
"Why didn't you give it from the beginning?" Liu Suifeng asked.
"If we gave it to them at the beginning, they would think it was less and want more. They would wonder why we didn't give them everything in the treasure house." Ling Shuyao smiled slightly, "It's different now. They lost and should have left empty-handed, but we took the initiative to give away things. In their eyes, this is not less, but more."
Qin Tiexin looked at the direction in which Imperial Pivot Pavilion and the others were leaving, and added, "That monk named Meng Qingxin is not simple. There are advantages and disadvantages in forming a good relationship."
Liu Suifeng went through these words in his mind, and finally clicked his tongue. "Okay, okay, I don't feel bad about giving it to you. Anyway, I have printed all the parts that I should imprint on the driver core, so just give it to me."
He turned to Ling Shuyao. "What are your next plans, Fellow Daoist Ling?"
