Chapter 995 Battle Puppets

The reason for all of this was because of the word "wealth".

On the main road of Xiang Nan and the others, the sect's Basic Mountain would not interfere in the commoners' world. At most, they would only live in the same hometown as the commoners. The only intersection between them was business.

Take Xiang Nan for example. Ever since he stepped into the martial arts world, he basically didn't have much contact with the commoners, nor would he brazenly run to a family and beat them up to show off his strength.

However, it was different in the Iron and Steel Continent, because the local civilians were too wealthy! He was so rich that he could even directly purchase powerful puppets from a sect like the The Dark Underworld Sect .

Excessive wealth had aroused the interest of some sect disciples in the commoner world.

Usually, when they robbed a family with a low-and middle-class standard of living, they could go to the auction house to buy an Origin Transformation Pill!

Because of this, the disciples of the sect "moved the mortal heart". From time to time, they would sneak out and wear night clothes to play the role of thieves. They would commit all sorts of crimes in the commoner world.

After he finished his evil deeds, he put on his respectable sect attire and swaggered back to the sect.

The sects weren't blind either. After discovering this, they punished the disciples who had done evil severely and punished them severely.

However, this was still unable to stop more and more sect disciples from coveting the wealth of the commoners.

In the end, this matter was like a plague of locusts. It was already out of control. Those disciples who had been expelled from the sect simply turned into bandits and colluded with each other.

Without the restriction of their status as sect disciples, they were even more capable of unscrupulously killing civilians and robbing large amounts of wealth.

The person in charge of the convoy sighed, "In the beginning, the strongest disciples who were expelled from the sect were only at the Origin Realm."

"However, for hundreds of years, they have been plundering their wealth and purchasing pills, cultivation techniques, martial skills, and so on. Up until now, some of the strongest criminals in the region have already reached the Fortune Realm."

Hearing the description of the team leader, Xiang Nan didn't know what to say. He suddenly remembered what Dead Eye had said to him.

It seems that wealth is a sin from which no one is immune.

It's like you're a jackal. You walk past ant nests every day and you look down on those ants.

But suddenly, one day, these ants had endless meat! The meat piled up into a mountain and was placed next to the ant nest. Would you steal it?

The person in charge of the convoy grabbed Xiang Nan's arm and said, "Little hero, hurry up and leave. You killed quite a few of them, and they will definitely come back to find trouble with you."

"These people are extremely ferocious. They no longer have a home, no sect of their own. They don't care about life or death at all. They are a bunch of complete lunatics."

"Yes, you should leave quickly." "We are just ordinary people. We are not worthy of a lofty martial artist like you to work for us," someone beside us advised.

"What are you talking about!" Xiang Nan said angrily, "What do you mean by lofty? Ordinary people and martial artists are all human beings!"

"I want to see what they can do to me. This bunch of bastards who have disgraced the sect disciples must be taught a lesson."

"That's right." Yuan Meng hugged his shoulders and was furious when he heard this, "You really embarrassed the disciples of the sect. If these people dare to come again, he will come one and I will kill one!"

"Hurry up and save them. After bandaging them up, let's see which carriages have not been destroyed. Together, let's go together." Xiang Nan commanded everyone to save them.

When they were done, they immediately threw the destroyed vehicles down. The remaining vehicles and the living demonic beasts were all connected by iron chains, and the vast convoy continued on their way.

Inside the carriage, Xiao Jun asked curiously, "Look at the puppets used by the disciples of the sect. Isn't it very strange? I've never seen such a thing before."

"The puppets of our Southern Domain are all made exactly like ordinary people. They are expressionless, just following their masters."

"But the puppets here can actually be manipulated."

"Yes, I noticed it a long time ago." Xiang Nan pulled out a broken puppet arm from his storage ring and said, "Look at this."

"There are densely packed small formations on this arm. These formations are driving the puppets to move."

"Normally, puppets are directly connected to the will of Xuandao cultivators. Xuandao cultivators only need a single thought, and the puppets can fight according to the cultivators' thoughts."

"However, most of the people here are not Profound Dao cultivators. That's why the puppets here look like this, allowing ordinary people to control them as well."

"I understand. I don't need a soul!" Xiao Jun snapped his finger, "Normal puppets need to communicate with cultivators' souls, but such puppets don't need souls, they can be used."

"That's what I meant." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "These combat puppets were created by evil Xuandao cultivators."

Xiang Nan stretched out his finger and flicked it twice on the puppet's arm, making a clanging sound.

Xiang Nan said, "This mechanical puppet possesses the sixth level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm. Look at this material, it is made from the main materials of a beginner Earth Soldier."

"This is another important reason."

"I understand too." Yuan Meng said thoughtfully, "In our Southern Domain, whoever can find the materials of an Elementary Grade Earth Weapon is treated as a treasure. It's too late to refine it into an Earth Weapon. How could he be willing to make a puppet?"

"But the people of the Iron and Steel Continent are too rich. They don't care about these forging materials at all."

"Yes." Xiang Nan said, "A puppet like this can be trained into at least three or five Earth Soldiers."

"Damn it!" Xiao Jun snatched the puppet arm over and stuffed it into his storage ring. "The proportion of materials in this is so high! I have to take it back and refine a weapon!" Xiao Jun snatched the puppet arm over and stuffed it into his storage ring.

"Look at your little accomplishment." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "If you want it, I'll give you a Heavenly Armament later."

After saying that, Xiang Nan began to ponder on his own.

He had seen many puppets in the chained area of the Devil Sea. Those puppets were all beaten into mechanical beasts, and their bodies also contained materials for forging spirit weapons, earth weapons, and even heavenly weapons.

After he killed those mechanical beasts, the artifact forging materials in his body would immediately shrink, condense into a complete mass, and fall out as a reward to the passers-by.

In modern times, there were very few profound dao cultivators who specialized in puppet forging. Basically, they were all focused on pill refining and artifact refining, because these two were the two most lucrative items, and they were also very helpful to themselves. If they refined pills and ate them themselves, they would be able to raise their cultivation realm.

However, on the steel continent, there seemed to be a group of cultivators specializing in puppets.

Xiang Nan was lost in thought. Could it be that some of the Xuandao cultivators here had been to the Devil Sea before? And from the chain-locked mechanical beast, he got inspiration?

Xiang Nan himself had only made a rough guess about these things.

He only knew that a large number of Heavenly Profound Sect disciples had entered the Devil Sea back then.
