Chapter 365 - To Give Something
Golden Light Lake.
A golden door slowly appeared and a slender man walked out. The man was slightly hunched and wore a thin cloak. One could vaguely see a very thin skeleton under the cloak. Above it was a slightly sharp head with long white hair that was casually draped over it. Under the cover of his long hair, his white eyebrows and gloomy eyes revealed his unique personality.
Daoist Bai Mei looked around and impatiently pulled out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose.
The air in the lower realm was really dirty. He had not been to this place for a long time. The previous two times, he had sent his subordinates to descend with the Immortal Ascension Token.
He did not understand why it always ended in failure. He thought that he had let the puppet down too rashly, causing him to not be fully prepared and unable to fully unleash the power of the puppet.
Therefore, this time, he personally returned to the Demon Realm with the noble thirty-sixth puppet.
“Bai Mei, you can’t make another mistake this time. You can only stay in the Demon Realm for two days. If you can’t get rid of that person within two days, you’d better come back quickly. Don’t be discovered by those old monsters of the human race.”
Black Dragon’s voice came from the other side of the golden door.
Daoist Bai Mei looked over impatiently and said, “Black Dragon, why are you talking so much nonsense? I’m not as careless as you. I won’t let the humans get anything on me. Moreover, I’m a disciple from a human sect. I don’t need you to teach me what to do.”
“Bai Mei, I’m just reminding you not to forget about this. If the two of us are caught by the old fellows of the human race, everyone will suffer.”
After saying the last sentence, the golden door slowly disappeared, leaving Daoist Bai Mei floating on the Golden Light Lake. His deep and gloomy eyes looked in the direction of the three major human cities from afar. This was his goal this time.
That kid called Li Yuanqing was definitely going to die this time. No matter what, he had to kill him to save some face. Otherwise, his superb mechanism technique would be played by the humans of the lower realm. It would be too ugly if word got out and he would disgrace the reputation of his sect.
As someone from the Immortal World, it was naturally not appropriate for him to directly deal with such a kid. The thirty-sixth doll stood in front of him with its eyes closed.
Daoist Bai Mei slowly sat cross-legged in midair. He pressed a withered arm against the doll’s chest and muttered something.
After a moment, Daoist Bai Mei suddenly held his breath. A powerful force poured into the puppet’s body.
As power was injected, the size of the puppet changed greatly.
In just half an hour, the originally very small puppet had actually become the size of an adult. Moreover, its appearance actually looked a little similar to Daoist Bai Mei.
Daoist Bai Mei was very satisfied as he looked at the results in front of him.
“Open your eyes.”
The puppet’s eyes slowly opened. Its pupils were the same dim yellow color as Daoist Bai Mei’s pupils.
“With the strength of a third-grade Supremacy, I believe it’s more than enough to deal with a human from the lower realm. I want that Li Yuanqing alive. You must not hurt him, understand?”
“Understood, Master.”
“That kid has many secrets on him. If I can unlock all those secrets on him, it will be a huge treasure. It will be much more valuable than this small Demon Realm. This Black Dragon really doesn’t know what’s good for him.”
Daoist Bai Mei thought proudly about what would happen after he succeeded. In his opinion, there was no room for failure this time.
“I’ll personally supervise the battle here this time. I’ll give you a day to bring Li Yuanqing back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly flashed in front of him and the puppet disappeared into the horizon.
On the other side of the wide road, in the dense forest, Li Yuanqing was sitting on a thick branch and silently feeling the changes in his body.
He felt that ever since the jade pendant approached his body, his entire body had changed to a large extent. This change was very strange. He felt that his entire body, from his bones to his meridians, had been cleansed by the warm power emitted from the jade pendant.
This power was very gentle, but the effect was so obvious.
It had only been a night since Li Yuanqing woke up yesterday. When he woke up again, he realized that his body had completely changed. His meridians were wider than before, and his strength had also increased greatly. Now, he had vaguely touched the threshold of the ninth-grade Formation Arrangement Realm. He was only one step away from the peak of the Formation Arrangement Realm.
This was really exciting. The legendary Supremacy realm had never been seen before.
Under the tree, two demon beasts were lying there snoring, as if they were asleep.
The two of them had been rewarded with a lot of fruits by Li Yuanqing yesterday and had eaten enough at once. There was a lot of power in their bodies, so they fell into a dormant state and slept.
These two fellows were very sensible. They knew that following Li Yuanqing would be beneficial, so they simply stayed behind to guard Li Yuanqing.
Just as Li Yuanqing was feeling happy, the light in front of him suddenly flickered. He looked up and saw a thin middle-aged man appear in front of him.
This man had a withered skeleton and his entire body exuded a very thin feeling. However, under his thin body, there was a very huge power. Li Yuanqing could clearly feel that the strength in this person’s body was so unfathomable.
“Come with me!”
The puppet stretched out a hand, and the arm automatically formed and grabbed Li Yuanqing’s shoulder.
Li Yuanqing hurriedly released the majestic power in his body, wanting to shake off his hand.
However, it was like an iron clamp that was firmly clamped on his shoulder, making it difficult for him to move at all. The power in his body slowly froze, and he was about to completely control it.
Just as Li Yuanqing was feeling extremely anxious, a very warm energy suddenly spread throughout his limbs and bones, instantly dissolving the restriction power in his body.
The puppet’s eyes revealed surprise as it looked at Li Yuanqing in disbelief. He clearly felt that very strange power from Li Yuanqing’s body. This power was extremely familiar. It was like a high wall that he would never be able to cross.
Moreover, the power in Li Yuanqing’s body returned to the puppet’s body through his arm, sealing all the power in his body. His originally majestic immortal power was completely frozen in an instant, and his body slowly shrank to the size of a meter, returning to the appearance of a small doll.
Li Yuanqing watched all of this happen and was stunned on the spot. He clearly didn’t do anything just now, but this fellow acted like he had controlled himself. He had suddenly returned to this appearance. Moreover, he had been able to speak smoothly just now, but now, he had suddenly become stunned.
The little puppet looked at Li Yuanqing blankly, as if he did not know why he was here.
Li Yuanqing reached out and grabbed the puppet.
All the power in the puppet’s body was frozen, including the soul chain that had signed the contract.
They had all turned into nothing under Li Yuanqing’s hands. In other words, this little fellow was a pure new product now and did not have the mark of anyone else on it.
Li Yuanqing’s heart was pounding. An even stronger puppet. A very bold thought appeared in his mind. There was no time to think too much now. He had to attack immediately.
He took out a very large piece of yellow paper which was specially made. He bit his finger and used his strength to force his blood out. He drew on the yellow paper.
After a while, a very complete contract appeared on the huge yellow paper. The contract was like countless earthworms crawling on it. It was very chaotic. However, when the last stroke landed, the entire pattern seemed to be connected and emitted a faint light.
Li Yuanqing stuck the huge piece of paper on the back of the little doll and pressed his palms on the little guy’s back while chanting.
A scarlet light shot out from the back of the puppet, waking the two hibernating beasts below.
They smelled the rich smell of blood in the air and found Li Yuanqing’s location. They did not know what Li Yuanqing was doing. He was holding a small puppet in his hand. The back of the puppet seemed to have been cut open and it emitted the smell of blood.
The two beasts subconsciously licked their lips, but they were a little worried about Li Yuanqing’s safety.
However, Li Yuanqing is doing very well now. This doll with all its strength controlled could not resist at all. Even when Li Yuanqing’s divine sense landed on it and signed a master-servant contract for it, this little fellow even obediently provided help to Li Yuanqing.
Everything went very smoothly, as if it was a matter of course. Li Yuanqing quickly signed a master-servant contract with the little fellow in his hand. Just like that, he picked up a powerful puppet for no reason.
This puppet clearly had the strength of a third-grade Supremacy just now. This strength was enough to be unparalleled in the Demon Realm.
On the other side, Daoist Bai Mei was sitting upright on the Golden Light Lake. Suddenly, his face turned red and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.
The blood landed in the Golden Light Lake, causing the river water below to boil.
Daoist Bai Mei waved his sleeve, and a starry pattern appeared in front of him. There were many light spots flickering on it. He enlarged it. In the center of his face was a dim light spot. It was number thirty-six.
“How is that possible?”
Number thirty-six had clearly sent news that he had already fought with that person. The two of them had already met and it should have directly brought that human back. But why was all the connections between him and number thirty-six sealed?
Daoist Bai Mei looked at the pattern in surprise. He kept using various methods to reestablish the connection between the two of them, but no matter how hard he tried, this path seemed to be locked.
After trying many methods to no avail, Daoist Bai Mei’s heart finally turned cold.
“Could it be?”
Daoist Bai Mei did not dare to think about such a thing. If it was really those old fellows from the human race who discovered his small actions below, would he be able to have an easy time when he returned?
He swallowed, and his dry Adam’s apple bobbed sharply. His already withered face looked even more unhealthy. His entire eyes kept flickering.
This originally arrogant Daoist Bai Mei thought that he could cover the sky with one hand when he arrived in the lower realm. Who would have thought that he would be defeated in just half a day?
He was now thinking about how he should run.
This was not the time to think too much. He suddenly took out a pitch-black token and threw it into the river.
A vortex appeared in the Golden Light Lake, and a golden door rose from the vortex. The door opened directly to the Black Dragon at the other end.
“What’s wrong? Why are you looking for me so urgently? Have you already captured that Li Yuanqing?”
“What do you mean captured? Something big has happened!” Bai Mei lowered his voice.
Black Dragon looked around strangely and then at Bai Mei’s pitch-black face. He felt that something was wrong.
“What happened? Why are you in such a hurry? You look too bad.”
Daoist Bai Mei looked at Black Dragon in panic and asked, “Last time, you told me that there was a place to hide.”
“What do you mean hide? Where are you going?”
“It’s over. I’m all over. I’ve been discovered!”
“By whom?” Black Dragon was wary. He suddenly realized what Bai Mei had meant.
“You mean?”
“That’s right. I can’t return to the Immortal World. I have to find a space to hide so that those old humans can’t find me.”
“But where can you go? As long as those old fellows of the human race target someone, they will definitely not let him go. Where can you escape to?”
“I don’t know, but they probably haven’t targeted me yet. If they had discovered me, they would have made a move long ago. There’s still a chance!”
“Then there’s one place for you to go.”
“Take me there quickly. I did all this for you. Don’t forget!”
“Don’t worry, if something happens to you, it will happen to me. I’m not that stupid.”
