Chapter 226 - After Confirming My Eyes I Met the Right Person

“Rumble…”

Wings of light spread out!

Guo Fan stared with his mouth agape at the massive mechanical doll. Initially, he couldn't see the details, but as it slowly stood up, countless mechanical parts rotated together. Guo Fan recognized the lotus-shaped crack emitting a golden light. It was the garden where they had obtained the Puppet Master Diary. The broken body and limbs were formed by the pathways and secret rooms.

###ip###

The eight wings were the tracks and chains hidden between the various library rooms in the depository. The bronze metal emitted a dark luster, and the broken chains swayed with the puppet's movement, creating a clanging sound.

Due to the previous destruction in many parts of the palace, the puppet that stood up seemed to be in ruins. However, this incomplete appearance had a strange beauty to it.

Dirt and dust rose in the air, enveloping the enormous distorted puppet in a hazy and gloomy state. It appeared mysterious and grand.

The original base, the garden, was mostly buried underground. Now, as it emerged, it overturned the surrounding land. The entire island trembled, and the Earth Dragon's transformation was just as terrifying.

“Awoo… Awoo…” The Strange Beasts that originally lived within the palace fell like dumplings, landing on the ground or in the forest, either crying out in pain or smashing into piles of mud.

These half-rotten Strange Beasts were the products of the failed Purification Scripture experiment. Under normal circumstances, their combat strength was weak, and their loose muscles easily shattered.

The overall appearance of this puppet was not only defined by the eight wings at the back but also by the outline resembling a powerful Gundam. It was closer to the statue of a god in the temple, including the missing head that had been dug out from the top.

Its expression even carried a trace of divinity, indifference, and kindness.

This, Guo Fan could understand. After all, this was a xianxia world view…

Understand my ass!

What the heck, the Puppet Master Mechanical Technique created a Gundam that could transform?!

The corner of Guo Fan's mouth twitched. He looked at the eight wings of light in a daze, though he could understand it upon closer inspection.

Since the Puppet Master could create a bionic person like Qingfu, making a Gundam in terms of technique was reasonable.

But emotionally, it was still very shocking.

After all, this was a Gundam!

“Qingfu, when you learn the mechanism technique, can you also make one?” Guo Fan couldn't help but mutter.

Qingfu was a little confused. “Yes, yes, but it takes a lot of time and effort to make this ‘Hall Spirit Puppet God.' Although its power is impressive, if fully powered, it is probably comparable to a Physical Integration Period great cultivator. But it also needs a Physical Integration Period cultivator to control it, making it practically useless. Therefore, Lord Puppet Master did not use it later on, and it was completely put on hold.”

“No, no, no. Whether it's useful or not is secondary, as long as it can be used.”

Guo Fan said sincerely, “I'll collect whatever materials you need. When the time comes, I'll design the exterior, alright?”

The little guy's eyes were confused. He didn't understand why Guo Fan suddenly showed such inexplicable enthusiasm.

“Bang!”

The Hall Spirit Puppet God's body finally stabilized, but probably due to its lack of mobility, it couldn't fly, and its wings of light dimmed.

It lifted its foot and took a step forward. The ground shook.

Its aura was astonishing.

Qingfu flipped through the diary and said, “After Hall Spirit Puppet God was attacked, a self-defense mode activated a Wood Pearl inside, storing a large amount of Spiritual Energy in advance. It was roughly equivalent to the strength of a peak Physical Integration Period cultivator, but it could only last for ten minutes. After that, it would be useless. Furthermore, after so many years, the Spiritual Energy in the Wood Pearl had severely depleted. It won't be as good as it was in the past.”

“Wood Pearl?”

Guo Fan's heart skipped a beat. Wasn't this one of the Five Luminaries Divine Pearls?

He already had the Water and Fire Pearls. Acquiring another one would mean having more than half of them. “Where is the approximate location?”

Guo Fan sensed it. The energy waves of Hall Spirit Puppet God's Spiritual Energy were around the Void Refining Stage and rapidly weakening.

With Guo Fan's current cultivation base and the help of the card, he had officially broken through to the God Forming Stage and reached the Void Refining Stage. It was worth it.

Qingfu pointed at the heart of the huge puppet. “It's about three feet deep inside.”

“Ceng!”

Guo Fan pulled out his Murderous Heart Gall and narrowed his eyes at Hall Spirit Puppet God.

Although Murderous Heart Gall was a long-ranged bow-type weapon, spiritual attacks were only effective on targets with consciousness. This huge puppet, showing no signs of life, was obviously not within its attack range.

Therefore, he could only engage in close combat.

He never expected that one day, he would have the chance to tear down a Gundam with his bare hands.

On the other side, Dong Yuan's voice still echoed as he rushed out from the woods in the distance.

When he saw that the few of them were still standing, he hurriedly said, “Quick, run!”

Dong Yuan staggered and almost fell.

As soon as he appeared, Hall Spirit Puppet God, who seemed a bit slow, suddenly lowered his head and locked onto this tiny human.

“Bang! Splash!”

It was probably the sound of howling wind, like a typhoon sweeping across the land.

The war machine took another step forward. This step caused the ground to sink. A huge crack appeared, followed by a loud bang as it bent down and rushed towards the crowd.

Although it looked heavy, it moved with astonishing speed.

Guo Fan felt that the impact resembled more of an Eva than a Gundam.

The puppet in his line of sight spread its eight wings and assumed a diving posture. At the same time, runes circulated on its body, and sharp wind blades gathered in its empty hands.

With such a large body, if it swept across, it would lift the ground, let alone humans.

Guo Fan was about to make his move when a shout suddenly came from other parts of the island.

“Form the formation!”

Several people flew into the sky on their swords. Their swords whistled through the air and formed a Six Rennes Sword Formation, aiming at the puppet.

These people wore the robes of swordsmiths from the Sword Pavilion.

Then, another group of differently dressed people emerged and shouted, “Don't panic, people from the Sword Pavilion. Blistook Pavilion is here to help!”

Then, there was a strange laugh. “What do you mean by help? I'm afraid they are here to share a piece of the pie. Heavenly Treasure Pavilion is not so sanctimonious. This puppet is very valuable. I, Yan Gang, am willing to exchange 60,000 Soul jewels for everyone to watch. How about it?”

The three pavilions had gathered together, creating a noisy and exciting scene.

“These people… That's true. When the Nine Furnace Great Formation contacted the barrier at the island's entrance, I reckon there should be some activity in the outside world as well. However, these people have all come. How long have I been staying in the Martial Emperor Tomb?”

Guo Fan was stunned for a moment. Then, he had an ominous feeling.

The three pavilions had arrived… What about the other sects?

“Since the value is huge, we should hand it over to the Redwood High Academy to deal with it.”

The ethereal and cold female voice resounded throughout the island and reached Guo Fan's ears.

He suddenly raised his head and saw a woman standing in the air far away. Her dark robe fluttered in the wind, and her long hair swayed. Her face was hidden in the clouds, and only her cold star-like eyes were visible.

She slightly lowered her head and locked eyes with Guo Fan.
