172: Chapter 172: The River of Time Trembles!

Yang Simu widened his eyes slightly, his joy impossible to conceal!

The secret technique to control the Golden Armored Puppet of the Hundred Thousand Mountains is something countless Cultivators dream of!

Even if the Old Blind Man kindly demonstrated it before them, these people would likely find it very difficult to learn.

However, with the help of the snatching opportunity system, Yang Simu could learn it easily!

I must say, this feeling is truly exhilarating!

The next moment.

Yang Simu's expression shifted slightly, and two piercing golden lights erupted from his pupils!

The three bright moons in the sky immediately began to rotate slowly!

The dense stars seemed to have become some kind of ancient Formation!

Within the river of stars beneath Yang Simu's feet, a Golden Carp jumped out; he reached out, grabbed it, and detained it within a Sword Qi cage.

Immediately after, came the second, the third...

In a matter of seconds, the fish basket Yang Simu had condensed with Sword Qi already held ten Golden Carps.

Suddenly, these Golden Carps shattered with a boom, turning into specks of golden light!

The golden light fell into the mountains and rivers below.

In an instant, a Golden Armored Puppet suddenly appeared!

Seeing this scene, the old man fishing with a rod on the distant bank could not help but reveal a trace of surprise.

At the same time, in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, a new Golden Armored Puppet suddenly stood up from a mountain peak!

He looked around with a somewhat dazed expression, as if searching for something.

Then, a golden longsword flew out from the mountain in front of the Golden Armored Puppet and landed in his hand!

Following that, the original Golden Armored Puppets in the Hundred Thousand Mountains began to stampede towards this side, shaking the mountain ranges!

On a distant mountain peak, Xiaobai, Wang Zhu, the Tender Daoist, and others all looked over with expressions of both shock and confusion.

"What... what exactly is happening?" Duan Yutong arrived panting and could not help but knit her brows.

She had just been engaging in Fist-Questioning with that Puppet of the Golden Body Realm.

Then, the ground suddenly shook, and the Golden Armored Puppet in front of her ran away!

Duan Yutong hurriedly chased after it, only to see this shocking scene before her!

The Nascent Soul Stage Formation Master Chu Ce was desperately pinching his fingers to calculate something, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

A few days ago, Yang Simu felt that Chu Ce knowing only Formations was not enough, so he transcribed the Five Elements arithmetic Secret Manual of Master Zou from his mind and let Chu Ce study it well.

For Chu Ce, whose cultivation had been stuck at the first layer of the Nascent Soul Stage, this was not just icing on the cake, but timely help in a snowstorm!

These past few days, Chu Ce had been delving into that arithmetic Secret Manual—whose origin Yang Simu had deliberately kept from him—and had benefited greatly, showing faint signs of being about to ascend to the second layer!

Chu Ce's path of arithmetic could be considered to have reached a level of mastery.

But at this very moment, just a slight calculation caused him a splitting headache, and blood even seeped out from between his fingers!

If he continued to calculate, this Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator would likely fall in realm!

Chu Ce had never encountered such a situation and was incomparably horrified.

He immediately stopped his method of calculation and bowed respectfully to the heavens and earth!

The young girl Wang Zhu frowned and said: "Just now, did Yang Simu go to find the Old Blind Man to learn the method of controlling the Golden Armored Puppet?"

"Could this commotion be caused by him?"

Hearing this, the Tender Daoist immediately shook his head in refutation: "Impossible!"

"The Old Blind Man's secret technique for controlling the Golden Armored Puppet is not something just anyone can learn."

"Back then, in order to have me guard the gate better, the Old Blind Man also told me the control method for one of the Golden Armored Puppets."

"I, the Tender Daoist, a dignified Ascension Realm expert, couldn't even figure out the intricacies of it, and my consciousness was almost damaged!"

"Listening to the Old Blind Man, it seems he still wants to teach Yang Simu the method of controlling all the Golden Armored Puppets."

"He is only in the Grotto-Heaven Realm, with a weak consciousness, and his thoughts cannot exceed one hundred thousand; it is absolutely impossible for him to control all the Golden Armored Puppets in such a short time!"

As soon as the Tender Daoist finished speaking, a soft voice of defiance immediately rang out.

The Green-Clad Girl, who had just arrived, waved her two little fists in mid-air and said defiantly:

"Hmph, my Young Master is very capable. Senior, just wait and see!"

Upon hearing this, the Tender Daoist looked slightly angry.

But when he turned his head and saw that it was a cute-looking Green-Clad Girl, his anger immediately dissipated.

...

At the same time.

Wilderness World, Tuoyue Mountain.

The Ancestor of Tuoyue Mountain, the head of the fourteen Wilderness thrones, instantly appeared on the mountain peak.

He could not be bothered to pay attention to the large number of disciples, descendants, and Guest Elders of Tuoyue Mountain who were already kneeling at the foot or halfway up the mountain.

The Ancestor of Tuoyue Mountain's gaze was fixed firmly on the direction of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, his pupils slightly narrowed.

For thousands of years, there had been too many mysteries surrounding the Old Blind Man who drove the Golden Armored Puppets and moved the Hundred Thousand Mountains!

Great Wall of Sword Qi.

The Grand Sword Immortal who lived on the city wall year-round—Chen Qingdu—also suddenly opened his eyes, as if sword light shot out!

Chen Qingdu slashed out with his sword, and a turbulent river immediately appeared in the Void Realm; he stepped into it with a long stride.

The Grand Sword Immortal stared at the upstream of the river, at a place that was vibrating violently, and his eyes suddenly became profound.

Haoran World.

Central Continent, White Emperor City.

Today, the Demonic Path giant who rarely showed his face—the white-clad Zheng Juzhong—suddenly appeared on the city wall and looked towards the south.

Some Cultivators guessed that he was gazing at the South Po Suo Continent.

But in fact, Zheng Juzhong was looking at the Wilderness World across Daoxuan Mountain!

Qingming World.

White Jade Capital, Five Cities and Twelve Towers.

A young Daoist wearing a lotus crown had originally been closing his eyes to rest.

At this moment, he suddenly widened his eyes, carefully examining a vast star chart in front of him.

The young Daoist smiled and said: "Sure enough, it seems the move I made back then was very correct!"

...

On the banks of the River of Time, the Old Blind Man finally revealed a trace of shock on his face.

He had originally only intended to pass on the method of controlling the Golden Armored Puppets in the Hundred Thousand Mountains to his new disciple.

But now it seemed that Yang Simu had not only learned the control method but had even learned how to create the Golden Armored Puppets himself!

In other words, his control of the Golden Armored Puppets was no longer limited by his own cultivation!

In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, even if it were a Golden Armored Puppet of the Upper Five Realms, Yang Simu could still control it!

At this very moment, the Old Blind Man suddenly thought of a saying: "Once you teach the disciple, the Master goes hungry."

He had previously thought that such a day would never come for him.

But now it seemed that was not necessarily the case!

However, at this moment, the Old Blind Man laughed.

Which Master wouldn't be happy to have such a good disciple?

Just at this moment, Yang Simu stopped the action of grabbing the Golden Carps.

His expression shifted slightly, and he thought of a bold idea!

Since these Golden Carps could create Golden Armored Puppets.

Then, would they also be helpful for his body as a martial artist and for tempering the Golden Body Realm?

Thinking of it, he did it; Yang Simu jumped into it instantly!

Although there was a small section of the River of Time within the broken Immortal Cave that Old Man Yang had given him.

It could not be compared to the real River of Time!

Therefore, as soon as Yang Simu jumped in, he immediately felt immense pressure!

He gritted his teeth hard and began to Cultivate the "Wading Water" fist technique!
