Looking at the thousand puppets in front of them, Wu Tianshan and his group of five were still in shock and had not yet recovered.
Their gazes shifted between the puppets and the corpses of the Sin Beast in the mountains, their hearts filled with disbelief.
Dead?
Tens of thousands of Sin Beast, including nine Immortal Ninth Grade Sin Beast, all died in just a few breaths?
They moved so fast that they barely had time to react.
"Brother Lin, this puppet of yours shouldn't be from the Human Race's treasure vault, right?" Wu Tianshan swallowed hard and asked.
After the puppets unleashed their power, he clearly sensed that their aura was no weaker than his, and perhaps even dozens of times stronger.
It can be said that each of these puppets possesses the strength of Immortal Ninth Grade.
The key point is that there are tens of thousands of such puppets.
He couldn't even imagine how terrifying it would be if ten thousand puppets were to unleash their power simultaneously.
"I have a little knowledge of the art of puppet making," Lin An said.
"That formation..."
"I also have a basic understanding of formations."
"And those talismans and elixirs..."
"Everyone understands a little bit."
Upon hearing Lin An's answer, Wu Tianshan and the other four gasped in shock at the primordial energy of heaven and earth.
They didn't believe Lin An was lying to them, nor did they think there was any need for him to do so.
It can only be said that Lin An's extraordinary talent far exceeded their previous expectations.
"I thought Brother Lin was already strong in combat, but I didn't expect him to be a master of secondary cultivation as well."
Wu Tianshan smiled wryly, saying that only now did he truly witness the monstrous talent.
Compared to Lin An, those so-called prodigies on the Battle Ranking are nothing.
"Time is of the essence, let's move on to the next place," Lin An said.
After destroying the Sin Beast of this mountain range, he obtained a total of more than one hundred Origin Fragment.
That's not a lot.
Now he needs 100 Origin Fragment to cultivate every day, and after a month he will have to pay 100 Origin Fragment every day as lodging fee, which means he needs to collect at least 200 Origin Fragment a day.
Now, it's natural to want to earn more Origin Fragment, especially since we've only recently entered the Sacred Realm. If we need Origin Fragment again later, the expenses will only be greater.
The only thing he regretted was that after slaying these Sin Beast, his Fate Tribulation Talent did not continue to accumulate.
"Could it be that these Sin Beast aren't truly Sin Beast after all?"
Lin An had his own guesses, but unfortunately, he had no answer yet.
Upon hearing Lin An's words, Wu Tianshan and the other four realized what was happening and their faces lit up with excitement.
With these puppets assisting them, they no longer need to worry about dealing with the Sin Beast; they can slaughter Sin Beast on a large scale and plunder the Origin Fragment.
They even wondered if, after Lin An forged the Eternal Dao Foundation, the remaining Origin Fragment would allow them to enter the stone tower and cultivate as well.
"Okay, let's set off now."
After Wu Tianshan finished speaking, the group continued flying deeper into the Sacred Realm.
Shortly after everyone left, a rift in the void appeared, and a figure emerged from it— the Realm Guardian.
"I hope you can remove as much pollution as possible."
The Realm Guardian murmured, and with a flick of his sleeve, the corpses of the Sin Beast transformed into wisps of gray mist, merging into the Sacred Realm realm.
After the Realm Guardian left, the entire forest fell silent once more.
But not long after, wisps of black mist rose from the ground and began to transform into Sin Beast.
The once quiet forest has become lively again.
Time continued to pass.
With Lin An taking action, Wu Tianshan and his group of five mostly remained bystanders for the rest of the time, their only responsibility being to lead the way Lin An find the gathering places where the Sin Beast were hidden.
Once he discovered Sin Beast, Lin An showed no mercy and annihilated them all.
Although his puppets only possessed the strength of the Immortal Ninth Grade, each puppet was inscribed with Spirit Mark and various array patterns. With their combined strength, they could easily kill even Sin Beast whose bloodlines had undergone three or four transformations.
Each thousand puppets represents an ancient formation he has mastered.
If he were to use nine thousand puppets, he could unleash all nine ancient formations he had mastered.
When these ancient formations are combined, they can be transformed into the Nine Tribulations Myriad Phenomena Formation.
As long as they don't encounter Sin Beast at the Half-Step Eternal or even Eternal Realm, they have a chance to kill it with the Nine Tribulations Myriad Phenomena Formation.
If he really couldn't kill them, he still had a large number of talismans, enough to crush those Sin Beast to death.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye, and they had been in the Sacred Realm for almost twenty days.
"It's about time; we can head back to the city now."
In a mountain range, Lin An had just controlled a puppet to kill all the Sin Beast there, and also obtained more than three hundred Origin Fragment.
In the past two weeks, he has killed countless animals in mountains like this.
Although the strength of the Sin Beast encountered has increased significantly as we move further away from the city, especially in this mountain range, there are even Sin Beast that have undergone five bloodline transformations.
However, he posed no threat to them and was easily killed after some effort.
"Brother Lin, we currently have a total of 7,654 Origin Fragment."
Wu Tianshan reported on the results.
Lin An nodded. The quantity wasn't large, but after deducting the thousand Origin Fragment needed to use the Stone Tower for about ten days, the remaining Origin Fragment would allow him to cultivate for another month.
"Not bad, especially now that we've ventured deeper into the Sacred Realm, the Sin Beast we encounter are stronger, and we're getting more Origin Fragment every day."
Lin An said, "Take out the Teleportation Formation. I'll have a puppet send the Origin Fragment back."
Wu Tianshan nodded, then took out a Teleportation Formation plate that Lin An had prepared beforehand.
Lin An manipulated the Teleportation Formation array, setting it in a hidden location. The Teleportation Formation was then activated, and the puppet carrying the Origin Fragment stepped onto Teleportation Formation, quickly disappearing from sight.
"Let's go, let's go to the next place."
Lin An Andao then flew with the others toward the next location.
On the other side, within the city, Lin An emerged from the stone tower.
They went directly to the center of the plaza, then took out a Teleportation Formation array and activated it.
"Isn't that Lin An from the Human Race? Why isn't he out hunting the Sin Beast?"
"It must be other Human Race helping him acquire the Origin Fragment; he only needs to cultivate."
"Besides Lin An, only five other Human Race made the list this time, and they're all ranked quite low. How many Origin Fragment will they be able to obtain?"
"Who knows? What is Lin An doing? Setting up Teleportation Formation?"
"..."
Within the city, there were still some prodigies from various races who had gone out to fight the Sin Beast and then returned to rest.
Upon seeing Lin An, these prodigies from all races showed expressions of curiosity, but none dared to approach and disturb him.
After all, they were well aware of Lin An's strength. Despite their large numbers, they were no match for Lin An's single strike.
Buzzing...
At that moment, after Lin An set up the Teleportation Formation array, a puppet quickly appeared, accompanied by a spatial fluctuation.
