Immediately after, Lingyang Tengyu, the green dragon, Liu Yun and the rest continued their journey, but they did not know how long the swamp area was. They had already walked for about 4 to 8 hours, but they still did not meet anyone else.
"Be careful", suddenly, Lingyang Tengyu pushed the green dragon away from him for two steps. A small black snake came out from the place where the green dragon used to be, and it emitted the aura of a level 3 beast.
Just now, he didn't even notice it. If not for Lingyang Tengyu's reminder and push him two steps back, he probably would have been ambushed by this little black snake.
Hiss hiss!
The black snake flicked its tongue, staring at Lingyang Tengyu and the others with its little round eyes. A look of confusion surfaced in Lingyang Tengyu's eyes, because he did not recognize the black snake's identity, which beast was it?
"Azure Dragon, get rid of it," Lingyang Tengyu said indifferently. If this little black snake ambushed the Azure Dragon, then let the Azure Dragon get rid of it.
Currently, the Azure Dragon was already a Intermediate Mysterious Spirit Martial Master. With the abilities he had, killing a high level three demon beast shouldn't be too much of a problem.
The green dragon nodded, "Young Master, leave it to me without worries." Then, he activated the Burning Fire Spirit Yuan, and a red light flashed. He stomped his feet on the ground, and his body rushed towards the little black snake.
The black python sensed the dangerous Qi and immediately changed its direction and headed towards the depths of the swamp. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace, causing Lingyang Tengyu and the rest to be extremely surprised.
"Young Master, they're running away." The green dragon was somewhat helpless. He was just about to unleash his power, but he didn't expect the little black snake to be so smart as to run away immediately.
"If you've run, then run." Lingyang Tengyu said with a light smile. He was also helpless in regards to this, and then softly said, "Let's continue walking."
Thus, the six of them continued to walk forward. After walking for about four hours, they finally exited the swamp. Baleful Yin smiled and said, "We have finally left the swamp. However, where is this place?"
Lingyang Tengyu sized up the space and a few stone walls appeared around him. They seemed to be a passage, and he had no idea where this passage lead to. Then, there was no one else beside him, which made Lingyang Tengyu puzzled, but Royal Spirit Master's methods were not something they could imagine.
Lingyang Tengyu said softly, and then the six of them slowly walked forward. Lingyang Tengyu was at the front, with Yin Sha and Yang Sha at the left and right sides, the two of them being the strongest amongst the group, followed by Liu Yun, the Vermillion Bird, and the Azure Dragon.
However, the Yin Sha and Yang Sha did not dare to walk shoulder-to-shoulder with their young master, so they were slightly behind, roughly a step away.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from ahead, a gigantic lion blocked the path, blocking Lingyang Tengyu and the rest's path, its entire body releasing a powerful undulation.
"Be careful, Young Master." Yang Sha and the Yin Sha took two steps forward and stood in front of Lingyang Tengyu, blocking his way. Their expressions were grave as they stared at the gigantic lion in front of them.
Lingyang Tengyu said softly, "This is a puppet with extremely powerful strength. Its attack is also extremely fierce and powerful, a type of Soul Puppet called Giant Lion."
Lingyang Tengyu's face revealed an expression of interest. The Divine Mountain of the Setting Sun in front of him possessed two giant lion puppet, but they were not at the same level as the in its perfect state. Instead, they were even more powerful puppets that the Puppet Hall of Heavenly Secrets had given to the Ling Yang Family.
If we can find the core of the giant lion puppet, then there should be a way to control it. At that time, Lingyang Tengyu would have an additional giant lion puppet that will never betray us, and one that is comparable to the perfection of Mysterious Spirit Martial Master at that.
Furthermore, the giant lion puppet should be blocking here, and it should be a test that the Emperor Haoran left behind. If they could not pass, then it would mean that they had no fate with the Emperor Haoran's inheritance, so if they wanted to pass, they still had to defeat the giant lion puppet.
Furthermore, Lingyang Tengyu guessed that there was still a way to go without directly defeating the giant lion puppet s, because if one could face off against the giant lion puppet, it would be difficult to find even one amongst the people who had entered the Haoran's abode, even Wu Tian might not be able to do so.
"Young master, why don't I tie this puppet down first so that you can lead Baleful Yin to kill them first?" Yang Sha said softly. In his opinion, perhaps this was the only way. Otherwise, they would all be wasted here by giant lion puppet.
Lingyang Tengyu laughed lightly, "No need, later on everyone will cooperate with me, I'll try and see if I can take care of this big guy." Then, he told everyone his thoughts, which everyone thought would work, so the six of them started to attack.
The Vermillion Bird was in charge of long-range control, while the Yin Sha and Yang Sha were in charge of the facade. When the Azure Dragon and Liu Yun had a chance, Lingyang Tengyu was the most relaxed, and also the least relaxed, because he didn't need to fight the giant lion puppet directly, but he needed to find the center control point of the giant lion puppet. If he were to destroy the center control point, the giant lion puppet would be completely destroyed and his own soul imprint would be left behind, then the giant lion puppet would be under Lingyang Tengyu's control.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The giant lion puppet pounced towards the Yin Sha, a terrifying power rippled out, revealing its tyrannical power.
However, Yin Sha was not easy to deal with, with a light wave of her hand, Heavenly Demon Spirit Essence spread out, enveloping her hand, and struck towards the giant lion puppet.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!
The palm and the giant lion puppet's claws clashed, and a shocking explosion occurred. The Yin Sha retreated dozens of steps before stopping, and suffered a small loss. At this time, the giant lion puppet was still rushing towards the Yin Sha, wanting to use a strong method to get rid of it.
However, Yang Sha was right beside him, how could he watch the giant lion puppet go to deal with the Yin Sha? Hence, his figure flashed, transforming into a black light that rushed towards the giant lion puppet, the black spear in his hand appeared, a cold Qi rippled out from the spear, it was also a broken Xuan Artifact.
"Heavenly Demon Art — Baleful Demon Seal, Suppressing the Heavens!"
The Yin Sha also returned at this moment and a mysterious seal slowly appeared on his palm. Soon after, a black Square Seal appeared in the air in front of him.
With a wave of her hand, the black Square Seal streaked across the sky and rushed towards the giant lion puppet. It gave off a tyrannical aura as if it wanted to suppress the giant lion puppet.
"Flame Spirit — — Fire Bird Burning Heaven!"
The Vermillion Bird that was attacking from a distance brandished its Scepter of Silver Light, and the fire spirit started to spin around its body. The flames turned into three Fire Birds, emitting a blazing aura.
As the Scepter of Silver Light in the Vermillion Bird's hands descended, the three Fire Birds streaked across the sky, directly flying towards the giant lion puppet.
Although it was only a high-grade Chenchen technique, the power of the Vermillion Bird comprehending the Concept of Transformation was naturally not to be underestimated.
The giant lion puppet roared as a tyrannical energy fluctuation spread out from its body. Then, it brandished its claws and clawed at the area in front of it.
Lingyang Tengyu's lips curled up into a smile, "This is a very good opportunity." He took this opportunity and already arrived two meters behind the giant lion puppet, and investigated the location of the control center in the giant lion puppet's body.
