35: Who gave you the audacity to touch the people of Shenxiao Peak?

Wuhua Forest.

Bai Xiyin's voice was extremely penetrating, echoing in all directions.

"What are you screaming for!"

"No one is coming to save you here!"

"Kill!"

The Cave Heaven Peak strike was about to blast toward Bai Xiyin and Su Ningying!

Just at that moment!

Boom!

Two figures descended from the sky!

A terrifying aura that made one's heart palpitate instantly permeated the air.

San Mu Tongzi's entire body stiffened.

The next moment.

The Cave Heaven Peak Puppet was directly smashed by a punch, its body shattering as its limbs flew out and landed at San Mu Tongzi's feet.

San Mu Tongzi froze on the spot, looked at the severed limbs on the ground, and then looked forward in disbelief... as the dust settled.

Qin Tian and Empresss Name quietly appeared.

"Senior Brother!"

Bai Xiyin lunged forward, grabbing Qin Tian's arm and pressing it into her cleavage, fully utilizing her advantage.

"Uh, is this how Senior Brothers and Junior Sisters in your Dao Seeking Immortal Sect greet each other when they meet?" Empresss Name's mouth twitched.

Qin Tian couldn't help but smile, "Alright, Fourth Junior Sister, let go first."

"Oh, okay."

Bai Xiyin let go and gave Empresss Name a malicious glare.

"Second Junior Sister, are you alright?"

Qin Tian raised his hand, placing a drop of Myriad Things Birth · Morning Dew on Su Ningying's forehead.

Immediately, spiritual energy surrounded her, and Su Ningying's aura began to recover at a rate visible to the naked eye.

"Senior Brother, I'm fine."

After a careful inspection, Qin Tian slowly stood up, looked at San Mu Tongzi not far away, and spoke coldly.

"Puppet Sect?"

"You are also a Disciple of the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect; I saw you at the entrance of the Fallen Dragon Grotto." San Mu Tongzi was somewhat wary. "What Magic Treasure did you just use to be able to scatter a Cave Heaven Peak Puppet?"

As he spoke, he began forming hand seals behind his back.

The Cave Heaven Peak Puppet, which had been broken into several pieces, began to twitch and actually reassembled itself.

Qin Tian and Empresss Name watched silently, with no intention of stopping him.

"Is it fixed?"

"What did you say?"

"I'm asking you, is this Puppet fixed?"

San Mu Tongzi was stunned, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"By carving the Puppet's core array patterns separately onto the limbs, torso, and head, each part is equivalent to the Dao Entry Peak, but when combined, they possess the power of the Cave Heaven Peak."

"You must have used this method to bring this Puppet into the Fallen Dragon Grotto, right?"

San Mu Tongzi sucked in a breath of cold air and took a step back, staring at Qin Tian in disbelief. "How... how did you know?"

This was the unique puppetry technique of the man San Mu Tongzi called Father, the only one of its kind in the entire Ancient Immortal realm.

Furthermore, this Cave Heaven Puppet was the first experimental subject... the entire puppetry manual was a secret among secrets... Qin Tian was somewhat disappointed, "I thought I'd see something novel, but I didn't expect it to be such trash."

"Trash...?"

"What... what did you say!?"

"Father's puppetry is unparalleled in the world, how dare you slander it!"

San Mu Tongzi's expression was stiff, his voice filled with anger.

"Hmph!"

"So what if you have Magic Treasures?"

"This Puppet can be resurrected infinitely. You are merely Dao Entry Realm Cultivators at best. This Boy doesn't believe you can withstand the endless bombardment of a Cave Heaven Peak!"

"Kill them!"

As the words fell, the Cave Heaven Puppet moved accordingly, condensing its strongest strike to blast forward.

Qin Tian slowly raised his eyes, completely unafraid, as a lightning talisman ignited in his hand.

Boom!

Above the Puppet's head, the wind and clouds changed color, and a bolt of heavenly lightning struck straight down!

In an instant, the entire Cave Heaven Peak Puppet froze on the spot, its body charred to a crisp.

The magic arrays all over its body completely shattered.

In just a breath, the entire Puppet collapsed into dust...!

"This... this... this is impossible..."

San Mu Tongzi was dumbfounded.

"What kind of lightning talisman is this? You're only in the Dao Entry Realm, how can you control such powerful light— Pfft!!"

Boom!

Before San Mu Tongzi could finish, Qin Tian soared into the air and stomped heavily on San Mu Tongzi's face.

San Mu Tongzi's entire face caved in, blood spraying from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

Qin Tian let out a cold snort.

A guy like this, without a single shred of Destiny, still wants to resist a lightning talisman?

Simply dreaming!

"Tell me."

"Who exactly gave you the audacity to touch someone from my Divine Firmament Peak!?"

"Think carefully before you speak; you only have one chance."

San Mu Tongzi's entire body felt cold, a bone-chilling frost surging from the soles of his feet through his entire body.

It was the fear of impending death.

"Heav... Heavenly Puppet Mountain... Immortal Master Kui Yin..."

San Mu Tongzi's body trembled, his voice filled with endless terror.

Qin Tian frowned.

Empresss Name took a step forward.

"He is an Elder of the Puppet Sect, proficient in puppetry, and his cultivation has been stuck at the third level of the Reflection Realm for nearly a thousand years."

"I heard he has recently been researching a brand-new puppetry technique that can perfectly fuse himself with a Puppet to break through his Bottleneck."

The Great Gan's intelligence network reached everywhere, and since the Puppet Sect was not far from Great Gan, Empresss Name had detailed information.

"I'll have someone investigate more details and send them to you."

Qin Tian shook his head, "Too long, and unnecessary. It's enough to know who it is."

"In this Canglan Domain, no one can withstand Revered Master's wrath."

"Even ten Puppet Sects wouldn't be enough to look at."

With those words, Qin Tian's spiritual energy surged, and San Mu Tongzi beneath his foot was instantly ground into powder.

Not even a drop of flesh or blood remained... Empresss Name silently observed Qin Tian.

She could feel the anger in Qin Tian's heart.

In other words, these two Junior Sisters of his were perhaps exceptionally important to him... "Eh? What's this?"

After San Mu Tongzi's body dissipated, a remnant soul slowly rose from his Magic Treasure.

Su Ningying felt a somewhat familiar aura, and her eyes lit up.

"Senior Brother, she helped me just now."

Hearing this, Qin Tian's gaze softened.

"This treasure is called the Soul-Sustaining Furnace; it can nourish the Divine Soul. You take it and use it for now." Empresss Name casually handed it to Qin Tian.

Bai Xiyin looked at Empresss Name with some confusion.

"I've never seen this person before; he must be someone Senior Brother met after coming to the Fallen Dragon Grotto."

"But having only known each other for such a short time, why would he be so good to Senior Brother?"

"That Soul-Sustaining Furnace is clearly an extremely rare Magic Treasure, yet he's willing to give it away?"

"Hmm, there must be a secret between Senior Brother and this person!"

"But fortunately, this person is a man, so he won't have any improper designs on Senior Brother..."

Neither Qin Tian nor Empresss Name knew the little thoughts in Bai Xiyin's head.

The Soul-Sustaining Furnace rose, sucking the remnant soul inside.

Qin Tian added a few more Spirit Medicines that nourish the Divine Soul, finally managing to barely preserve the remnant soul's vitality.

Gradually, the remnant soul condensed into a faint phantom; it was Su Zhirou from before.

Seeing this, Su Ningying showed a look of joy.

"That's great!"

"Ningying thanks Fellow Daoist for saving my life just now."

Su Zhirou looked at the current situation, her mind blank for a moment.

"I... I'm not dead...?"

Qin Tian smiled slightly, "Rest assured, you won't die. After returning to the sect, I'll ask Revered Master to help you condense a Physical Body, and you'll be able to come back to life."

"However, your Divine Soul is incomplete, so there might be some obstacles in your cultivation."

Su Zhirou understood Qin Tian's words and asked with some fear, "Where is that San Mu Tongzi...?"

"He's already dead!" Su Ningying stepped forward with a smile.

"Really?"

"Of course it's true; he's already turned into fly ash by now!"

Su Zhirou breathed a heavy sigh of relief... "I am Su Zhirou, thank you all for saving my life."

Su Ningying looked at Su Zhirou with curiosity, "Fellow Daoist Su, can you tell me why you helped me just now?"

Su Zhirou was startled and immediately fell into silence...
