Chapter 105: The Blood Spirit Puppet

In the Xuanyin Mountain Range, Xiao Tian's figure appeared.

"I have a feeling there's something strange about this Xuanyin Mountain," muttered Xiao Diao.

"This is the main base of the Yin Puppet Sect, of course, it's strange," Xiao Tian smiled, then released his soul power to probe into the mountain.

Soon, he discovered a passage leading to the mountain's center.

"Bang!"

With a punch, Xiao Tian broke through the mountain and headed towards the passage. As he went deeper, he reached an underground cave. This cavern was about a kilometer wide, illuminated by glowing night pearls. At its center, a pitch-black giant hole emitted waves of intense cold air.

Xiao Tian approached the edge of the giant hole, seeing massive chains covered in strange runes. At the intersection of these chains floated a blood-red figure, suspended in mid-air, with chains wrapped tightly around its neck and limbs. This blood-red figure exuded an overwhelming aura of ferocity and malevolence.

"I didn't expect there to be a Blood Spirit Puppet here, comparable to the Nirvana Realm!" Xiao Diao said in surprise.

"Let's take it first!" Xiao Tian stepped into the air, extending his right hand to summon the Devouring Ancestral Talisman.

"Buzz!"

The Devouring Ancestral Talisman transformed into a black hole in his palm, beginning to devour the surrounding cold air.

"Whoo~"

As the cold air was completely devoured by the black hole, the runes on the massive chains began to dim.

"Crack, crack!"

Over time, cracks started to appear.

"Roar!"

Without the chains' seal, the Blood Spirit Puppet awoke instantly, letting out a beast-like roar. Its roar shook the heavens, and a wave of murderous intent radiated from its body.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

In an instant, the chains binding it shattered. The Blood Spirit Puppet opened its blood-red eyes, devoid of any emotion, filled only with endless bloodlust and the desire to kill.

"Blood! I need blood!"

Upon awakening, the Blood Spirit Puppet immediately targeted Xiao Tian.

"Hmph!" Xiao Tian snorted coldly and activated the stone talisman.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Milky white light beams shot out from the stone talisman, entwining the Blood Spirit Puppet.

"Roar!"

The Blood Spirit Puppet roared in anger, struggling violently.

"Seal!" Xiao Tian shouted. A milky white bubble appeared, trapping the Blood Spirit Puppet inside, covered in numerous strange runes.

"Bang!"

The Blood Spirit Puppet broke free from the threads but remained trapped in the seemingly fragile bubble, which held firm despite its attacks.

"Capture!" The bubble transformed into a beam of light and was absorbed into the stone talisman.

"Next, we need to purify the Blood Spirit Puppet." With a thought, Xiao Tian's soul entered the stone talisman space.

In front of him, the giant bubble floated in the air, covered in dense ancient runes forming layers of powerful seals.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The Blood Spirit Puppet continued to try breaking free tirelessly. Xiao Tian shook his head, observing the runes on the bubble. Some runes formed seals, while others continuously entered the Blood Spirit Puppet's body. Each time a rune entered, the ferocity in its eyes diminished slightly.

"You can merge your mental power into the array. The array will help you imprint your spiritual mark on the Blood Spirit Puppet," Xiao Diao reminded. "However, this process will take a long time."

Xiao Tian nodded, merging his soul power into the bubble. The bubble emitted waves, and the newly formed runes carried traces of Xiao Tian's soul power. As these runes entered the Blood Spirit Puppet, Xiao Tian felt a slight connection between them. However, this connection was still too weak to command the puppet.

Suddenly, Xiao Diao said anxiously, "Someone's coming!"

Xiao Tian's face changed. He left a soul avatar to continue refining the Blood Spirit Puppet and returned his soul body to the outside world. Sensing a powerful aura approaching, he immediately summoned the spatial gate and disappeared.

Moments later, an elder in coarse robes broke through the mountain and arrived. The elder grasped at the void and muttered, "There are traces of devouring power. Could the Devouring Ancestral Talisman from the Great Desolate Monument have been taken?"

He expanded his soul perception, searching the surroundings.

"I came all this way for the Devouring Ancestral Talisman. I can't let it slip away..." But after a long search, he found no one.

"Damn! Could the person be a Nirvana Realm expert?" The elder cursed and left. Soon, he returned, searching again but still finding nothing.

"Seems like the Devouring Ancestral Talisman isn't meant for me." He left, reappearing half an hour later for another search, but to no avail. Frustrated, he exclaimed, "Who could it be?"

Unbeknownst to him, Xiao Tian never retraced his steps when encountering strong opponents. After entering the spatial gate, Xiao Tian returned directly to the Dou Qi Continent. To avoid being tracked, he didn't even return to Yan City, as caution was crucial in a world full of powerful beings.

Returning to the Dou Qi world, Xiao Tian headed straight for Tianya City. He planned to use the space wormhole in Tianya City to travel to Central Province, then to the Blood Pool of the Gold-Eating Rats in Tianmu Mountain Range to break through to Dou Zong.

According to Yao Lao, the Blood Pool's opening was imminent. Although Tianya City was thousands of miles from Black Corner Domain, with Yao Lao's help, Xiao Tian's short-distance space shuttles saved a lot of time.

Tianya City, located in the Tianqing Mountain Range, had many flying magical beasts, rare in the Jia Ma Empire. As Xiao Tian was about to fly into the city, a stream of light ascended from the ground, transforming into an elder.

The elder glanced at Xiao Tian and politely said, "Friend, is this your first time in Tianya City? Flying is not allowed here. Please understand."

Xiao Tian, respecting the elder's courteous attitude, smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's my first time here."

As they descended, Xiao Tian asked, "Where is the space wormhole located?"

"In the central square," the elder replied.

"Got it." Xiao Tian nodded and headed straight for the space wormhole.
