28: Sign in to get a Tier 3 Supreme Puppet

Ye Ming, inside the flying boat, finally received the System prompt that only came once a year.

[Ding! The Host has spent another full year in the Cultivation World. Would you like to check in?]

"Check in!"

[Ding! Third-year check-in successful. Congratulations to the Host on obtaining the Third-Tier Supreme Grade Twin Puppets!]

As soon as the System finished speaking, Ye Ming saw two humanoid Puppets appear in the System Space.

These are the Twin Puppets?

Ye Ming's eyes lit up. Both of these Puppets were Third-Tier Supreme Grade. This grade of Puppet was equivalent to the third Realm of a Cultivator, the Peak of the Golden Core Stage.

In other words, he instantly gained two Golden Core Enforcers. This was too cool, and his year-long wait was worthwhile!

When he took out the two Puppets, he was surprised by their appearance.

One Puppet looked like a leng mo young man. Ye Ming admitted that this Male Puppet looked quite handsome, but not even one-seventh as handsome as himself.

The other was the image of a Cold Beauty woman. Not only was her figure perfect, but her expression was exactly like a real person's. When Ye Ming looked at her, she even smiled and called him 'Master' in a cold, clear voice.

This action completely stunned Ye Ming. Did this Puppet possess Spiritual Intelligence?

At this moment, the System's introduction to the Twin Puppets appeared.

[Twin Puppets: Puppets produced by the System. They possess the Intelligence of normal people, replenish Spiritual Power through Cultivation, do not require Spirit Stones for activation, and have mastered a Combined Attack Cultivation Technique. They can retreat safely even when facing enemies in the Early Nascent Soul Stage.]

After reading the introduction, Ye Ming immediately looked excited. With these two Puppets, he could do many more things, such as destroying the Seven Fiends Sect, that great Hidden Danger.

For example, he could take a trip to the Yao Beast Mountain Range, catch a dozen Second-Tier Yao Beasts to eat, and wouldn't have to spend Spirit Stones buying Yao Beast meat at the Market City every time. This would save a lot of Spirit Stones, and so on.

Just as Ye Ming was thinking about how to use the Twin Puppets, the female puppet couldn't help but speak.

"Master, clothes."

The cold, clear voice rang out beside Ye Ming, making him snap back to reality. Only then did he remember that these two Puppets were not wearing clothes.

So Ye Ming looked at them again, focused on observing the female puppet, and then took out two sets of clothes for them to wear.

The Male Puppet put on its clothes expressionlessly, then stood beside Ye Ming, waiting for his instructions.

As for the female puppet, without Ye Ming's command, she could only blush slightly and put on the clothes right in front of him.

This scene made Ye Ming marvel. A Puppet, just like a real person, could feel shy, and her figure was decent—soft.

However, because it was a Puppet, Ye Ming lost interest after only a brief observation. He still preferred real people.

After the Puppets finished dressing, Ye Ming instructed them to meditate inside the flying boat to fully replenish their spiritual power, as they had to go out tomorrow.

The next morning, Ye Ming took the two Puppets and started the flying boat. Last night, he named the Male Puppet Leng Mo, because the Puppet's expression was consistently Leng Mo.

The female puppet was named Cold Beauty, as her speaking voice was too cold and clear, yet she was quite beautiful, making the name suitable.

Now, taking leng mo and Cold Beauty, he planned to visit the Purple Mountain Market City to see if he could find the location of the Seven Fiends Sect. If he could find it, he would destroy this Demonic Sect; if not, he would find another way.

While thinking this, Ye Ming organized the items on his person. As for the flying boat, it was naturally piloted by the two Puppets. Their speed was much faster than his; they could reach the Purple Mountain Market City in half a day.

Before reaching the Market City, Ye Ming had finished organizing his things, mainly the Spirit Stones. He currently had 12,130 Low-Grade Spirit Stones and 113 Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

These Spirit Stones were provided by the five good people who were wiped out because of the longevity pill, and they were crucial for him in dealing with the Seven Fiends Sect.

A Quarter of an Hour later, the Purple Mountain Market City arrived.

This time, Ye Ming transformed into the appearance of a Big Man, but wore a Mask. The two Puppets followed him, one on the left and one on the right, and they also wore Masks.

The Masks were augmented by Magical Power; as long as the observer wasn't a Nascent Soul True Lord, no one could see through them.

There were quite a few people wearing Masks in the Market City, so Ye Ming and his two Puppets didn't stand out at all.

However, just as he walked into the Market City, Ye Ming heard many passersby discussing one matter. Although those people had cast Soundproof Barriers, their strength was unfortunately low, and they couldn't block Ye Ming's ears at all.

"Fellow Daoist Huang, are you going to the Tianbao Pavilion's once-every-decade Auction? I heard there are tons of Treasures at this Auction!"

"Let's go, let's go! I'm worried that I don't have a suitable Magical Artifact yet!"

..."Fellow Daoist Hua, are you also attending the Tianbao Pavilion's Auction?"

"Hehe, it is said that Tianbao Pavilion will be auctioning several Third-Tier and above Treasures this time. Wouldn't it be a pity not to go and see them?"

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Hua is right..."

...After listening briefly to the passersby' conversations, Ye Ming realized that Tianbao Pavilion was holding an Auction, and judging by what they said, this Auction had many good items!

Therefore, Ye Ming turned and headed toward the Tianbao Pavilion's location. He would inquire about the Seven Fiends Sect's whereabouts after attending the Auction.

When he arrived at the Tianbao Pavilion, he saw many Cultivators queuing outside the pavilion. Everyone's cultivation base was at least Foundation Establishment, but Ye Ming noticed they all held a white Invitation Letter.

Do they require an Invitation Letter?

The steps Ye Ming was taking immediately halted. Before he could think of a solution, a Shifty-looking man approached him.

"Fellow Daoist, I've noticed you standing here for a while. Do you happen to not have an Invitation Letter for the Tianbao Pavilion Auction?"

Hearing the voice, Ye Ming turned to look at the man. Although the two Puppets beside him remained indifferent, they knew this man posed no threat to their Master.

The Master had given a Command: do not act against people who pose no threat unless the Master gives a signal.

"Oh? Do you have an Invitation Letter?"

Ye Ming asked the man with slight interest. This person was sneaky and looked like someone who specialized in selling Scalped tickets.

"Yes, I do! But Fellow Daoist, look..."

Seeing Ye Ming become interested, the man immediately said happily. He then looked around, signaling to Ye Ming that there were too many people, and they needed to conduct the transaction elsewhere.

"Hehe, I understand. Let's go. As long as you have the Invitation Letter, Spirit Stones are not a problem!" Ye Ming chuckled and said meaningfully to the man.

Hearing Ye Ming say this, the man became even happier, and immediately led Ye Ming into a Dark Alley. Perhaps he was too excited, as he completely ignored the two Puppets beside Ye Ming.

However, once they reached the alley, the man's actions and the item he produced were beyond Ye Ming's expectations.

He took out an Invitation Letter, handed it directly to Ye Ming, and said, "Fellow Daoist, asking for twenty Low-Grade Spirit Stones for this one isn't too much, is it?"

When Ye Ming saw the Invitation Letter, his expression truly froze for a second. He had thought this man was a Dishonest Cultivator, but unexpectedly, the item was genuine.

Perhaps sensing Ye Ming's hesitation, the man scratched his head and explained, "Fellow Daoist, are you perhaps concerned about the authenticity of this Invitation Letter? It seems you haven't seen the methods of Tianbao Pavilion. They would never allow anyone the chance to forge Invitation Letters. Once discovered, many people would die!"
