Chapter 836: Light and Shadow
half by Zhang Guang's two swords. He hurriedly threw away his spirit tool, held his hands high, and cried out with a mournful face. Losing their storage pouches and facing imminent death, several othe...“Don’t you think that with your mere ninth-rank physique, you can run amok on my island How laughable.” The black-faced ghost chuckled, a raspy sound that belied his massive form beneath the dark attire. He moved with startling speed, almost ethereal in his swiftness, appearing before Lu Xia Tian in a blink of an eye.

His hands pressed down on Lu Xiaoteng's head like a vast, imposing heavenly seal.
Lu Xiaitian's eyes widened in surprise. He knew that the power of a ninth-tier body cultivator was extraordinary, far surpassing that of an ordinary Jindan stage cultivator. He dared to use this tactic of overwhelming his opponent with sheer strength. It had to be said, the confidence in this terracotta puppet's heart was truly remarkable.

It seems these years the terracotta puppet warriors have become quite powerful. Lu Xia Tian let out a soft hum, below the Nascent Soul stage, daring to act so arrogant in front of him He had seen such things in Dan Wang City before, and the final result was always that he thoroughly punished them. After several consecutive battles, the Golden Core cultivators of Dan Wang City no longer dared to challenge him by entering the Immortal Tower.
Well then, let's see just how far these terracotta puppet soldiers have progressed.
Facing the giant hand that came crashing down, Lu Xia Tian raised his left hand upwards, like a deity subduing a demon. He struck upward to meet it.
A tremendous force came crashing down upon him, undeniably powerful, but still within Lu Xia Tian's capacity to withstand.
Soon, a trace of coldness appeared on Lu Xia Tian's face. After so many years, he was still thinking of this.

One was in the light, one in the dark. While this man in black robes and a ghost mask was distracted, Lu Xia Tian's back was suddenly struck by a gust of wind. A sharp bronze spear shot towards his back.

At the same time, the figure in black robes moved forward. He appeared directly above Lu Xia Tian, pressing down with all his might like a mountain crushing him. He aimed to restrict Lu Xia Tian's movements as much as possible, creating an opportunity for the person attacking from behind.

Lu Xia Tian's hand twitched slightly, but it was too late. The bronze spear behind him, its sharp spear point like it wanted to tear Lu Xia Tian's body apart.
Lu Xiaitian swallowed a ninth-tier demon scorpion's soul essence. His back felt as if it had eyes, one hand supporting the black-robed ghost face on top of his head like a celestial deity holding a pagoda. At the same time, his right foot was planted firmly on the ground, while his left foot, resembling a scorpion's tail, was kicked up and swung forcefully against the shaft of the bronze spear.
The bronze spear behind him was flung away by the tremendous force. The figure in black robes with a ghostly face above realized something was wrong, spat out a burst of palm strength, and leaped into the air, returning to normal, wanting to retreat.

“Now that you want to leave, aren't you a bit late” However, Lu Xia Tian refused to let the other party have their way. He reached out from several feet away and grabbed empty space with his hand. A wave of powerful energy extended from Lu Xia Tian’s five fingers like a long rope, wrapping around the black robe ghost's ankle, and pulled hard.
“Not good!” The black-robed ghost face only felt himself being pulled by a huge force. Compared to when he fought Lu Xiaoteng before, the strength was almost double. Lu Xiaoteng was already a ninth-rank body cultivator, and now using the Soul Devouring Art, even cultivators of the same rank were far inferior in strength.
Lu Xiaitian's hand reached forward again, grabbing the black-robed ghost's ankle. Using this guy as a weapon, he swung him wildly towards the bronze spear that was stabbing again.

The man wielding the bronze spear let out a cry and hastily retracted it, but he was too late to fully pull it back, and it still went in slightly.
The guy grabbed by Lu Xia Tian cried out in pain, and Lu Xia Tian pulled him again to smash fiercely at the assailant.
"Wait a moment, fellow cultivator. Your strength is extraordinary, but don't push us to the point where we fight you to the death!"
The fellow who had been gripped by Lu Xiaotien panicked, and his mask was flung off, revealing a clay figurine face underneath. At this moment, the fellow stammered repeatedly.
If it were an ordinary Jindan cultivator, Lu Xiaonian wouldn't care what the other party said. However, this pottery puppet was truly too strange, and Lu Xiaonian didn't dare to take too many risks. With the opponent's current strength, he had nothing to fear. Killing these two fellows would not bring him any benefit. What he wanted was to leave through the teleportation array, and he had no direct conflict of interest with these two fellows.
As for the contents of that puppet scroll, the formation technique was indeed powerful. If it were before, when Lu Xia Tian's wings had not yet taken flight, he would have been very interested.
At this time, for a person who was about to become an infant, the help wasn't really much. Lu Xia Tian had collected puppets in Dan Wang City before, only as a precaution for emergencies.
Though this terracotta puppet's strength is no small feat, it remains only at the peak of the Golden Core stage. Sent out, it would be a formidable expert. However, before my eyes, as long as the opponent doesn't use their trump card, taking it down wouldn't require much effort at all.

Since that's the case, Lu Xia Tian naturally wouldn't do something that was hard and thankless.
"I didn't expect fellow Daoist to be able to attach their soul to this puppet. This secret technique is rare in the world." Lu Xia Tian released the terracotta warrior puppet and smiled slightly.

Hearing Lu Xiaitian's words, a trace of caution appeared on the stiff face of the Taoist figurine puppet. Lu Xiaitian was deeply moved in his heart. He didn't know who had created this puppet technique, but it was so miraculous.
“But don’t worry, I have no interest in your secrets. As long as the two of you stop interfering with my actions, we can live in peace. Of course, if the two of you try anything again, my patience is limited.”
Lu Xia Tian warned in a grave tone, his heart feeling apprehensive about these two mysterious figures. He didn't want to force them into a desperate fight with him, of course, though if he had no other choice, that would be another story altogether.
"My lord, are you truly seeking that illusory spirit beast I urge you to be truthful. Otherwise, we cannot fully trust you. Although your strength is extraordinary, my two brothers, if they put their hearts into it, could defeat anyone who isn't a Nascent Soul cultivator. The outcome of this battle remains uncertain." The Taoist clay puppet with its face mask lifted by Lu Xia Tian spoke.
"It seems that fellow Daoist is a discerning person, well then, let's not beat around the bush. In fact, I want to use this place's transmission formation." Lu Xiaoteng chuckled and said.
“What A transmission array On this island, which is no more than a few thousand miles in radius, how could there be such a large-scale transmission array that even the major fairy cities do not have” The terracotta figurine puppet holding a bronze spear exclaimed.
“If I have to tell the truth, but you won't be honest yourself, it seems we can't communicate normally. I'm definitely using this teleportation array. If you know about it and just let me teleport away, that's fine. Otherwise, don't blame me for turning this island upside down.”
Lu Xia Tian's anger rose slightly. These two fellows were truly pretending to be ignorant while knowing the truth. When he was being hunted by Zhou Tong and fled into the teleportation array in the underground palace, he had been seriously injured. By the time he was sent over, he had already passed out unconscious.
"Your Excellency, please calm down. Your Excellency may leave through this teleportation array if you wish, but I only hope that Your Excellency will tell me where you learned about the existence of this teleportation array. Is there anyone else who knows" said the terracotta puppet at the head.
