The skill of a puppeteer lies in the puppet, not in the puppet itself.

Remotely controlling puppets to win battles from afar—that's the true way a puppeteer fights.

The cultivators who knew Su Qing, including the Azure Lion King who were paddling in the distance, were slightly surprised. They felt that Su Qing had become bolder than before after condensing his Golden Core.

Why don't you dare to fight this fourth-tier body cultivator? Aren't you born with a sword seed, nine tails and nine swords, and a fourth-tier Qiongqi tiger skin? You don't even dare to go up?
"It's not Fellow Daoist Su's fault. For the past thirty years, he has been busy refining puppets and worrying about worldly affairs. Moreover, that vixen Ling Ying has been sucking his marrow and essence every day. It's understandable that he can't stand up straight!"

"The land of gentle pleasures is a graveyard for heroes. Back then, my brother Su was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, yet he displayed the might of the Tiger King, daring to fight against the old evil spirit of Yunshan while wearing his skin. Now, only thirty years later, my brother Su, who has cultivated both body and mind to the third-order Golden Core stage, only dares to let a bunch of puppets stand in front of him!"

"With just a dozen or so third-tier puppets, you think you can defeat a fourth-tier body cultivator? I don't think so."

The cultivators whispered amongst themselves, none of them believing that Su Qing's puppets had the ability to compete with a fourth-tier body cultivator.

The True Man of Subduing Tiger was unaware of the combined strength of Su Qing's true form and the tiger egg. Seeing Su Qing's response as ordinary as that of a puppeteer, he thought it was nothing out of the ordinary. However, when the two-headed mirage dragon transformed into mountain palaces, the Kui Niu of the abyss rode the waves, and the ancient storm tree stirred up a storm that swept across the sea, all of them came at once.

He simply laughed loudly and reached out to meet him with a palm flip.

A fourth-tier body cultivator can forcefully control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for his own use. Within a hundred miles of his location, he is the sovereign of heaven and earth, seizing and plundering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth so that he can overturn mountains and seize land with a wave of his hand.

Su Qing, more than a hundred miles away, only saw one hand strike down, and the boundless storm sweeping through the ancient tree instantly stopped. The Kui Niu of the Abyss Sea, with only one leg, was lifted upside down and flung to the boundless distance like a small toy.

The two-headed mirage dragon was even worse; the water jets that spewed from its two heads, capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, were like small water guns to this Tiger-Taming Immortal, posing no threat whatsoever.

Just as Master Fuhu reached out to shatter the mirage illusion created by the two-headed mirage dragon...

He suddenly exclaimed in surprise and quickly withdrew his hand.

At this moment, dozens of bloody holes were gushing from his large, seemingly indestructible hand. At the wounds, small black stones could be seen bursting open, further enlarging the existing bloody holes.

Master Fuhu's gaze sharpened, piercing through the illusion, and he saw behind the mirage that the Golden Roc mothership was aiming all its cannons at him.

The Golden Roc mothership wasn't anything special; it was just a third-tier puppet capable of flying. Under the Penglai Sect's anti-flying decree, it only dared to hover a thousand feet high, level with the forehead of his physical body.

The sight of the third-tier Spirit Explosion Flame Cannons on the mothership, capable of penetrating the physical defenses of a fourth-tier body cultivator like him, filled Master Fuhu with both surprise and delight.

"Excellent puppet! Can this puppet be mass-produced? Are the required materials difficult to obtain? How many days will it take you, Su Qing, to forge one? If it satisfies me, I will guarantee you, Su Qing, peace of mind here in Wanghai with just this type of puppet!"

The Tier 3 Spirit Burst Flame Cannon, with its continuous firepower, is far more appealing than the Dagger Missile Puppet, which is useless after one use and has a huge operating cost. Everyone who sees it is completely bewildered.

"Master, please do not be hasty. After this battle is over, I will inform you of the details regarding this puppet!"

Su Qing, who was a hundred miles away, was also quite excited to see that the Tier 3 Spirit Explosion Flame Cannon lived up to expectations.

As for exposing this puppet and inevitably being entangled by forces such as the Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom in the future, he was not afraid at all.

The creation of this puppet requires Spirit Explosion Runes, and among all the realms and heavens in the Western Sea Heavenly Origin, Su Qing possesses only one of these runes.

You can have this puppet, but you have to beg Su Qing for it!
Just like how the Penglai Sect hoards the Star Orbit Cannon and the Supernova Cannon, and is reluctant to sell them, can Su Qing just sell the Spirit Explosion Flame Cannon to anyone?
We absolutely have to get them to pay more!
"These cannons, the moment they were exposed, had no chance to fire a second time under my command. This battle is over!"

Master Fuhu shook his head and chuckled, thinking that Su Qing was still somewhat naive.

Do you really think that these dozen or so Tier 3 Spirit Explosion Flame Cannons can make Master Fuhu bow down?

It's very early!

The large hand, riddled with bloody holes, was instantly covered in frost, then fleshy buds sprouted, and it quickly returned to normal.

Then its thousand-foot body suddenly shrank, transforming into its normal form. It then transformed into a golden light, and after a flash of golden light, it reappeared near the Golden Roc mothership.

"A divine technique that allows golden light to emanate from the earth?" Su Qing asked in surprise.

"That's the technique of True Person Du'e from Penglai Immortal Island. My move is called Shrinking the Earth to an Inch, which is merely a Heaven-level combat skill!"

He admitted that shrinking the earth to an inch was no match for the golden light that shone across the land.

However, while Heaven-level combat techniques cannot compare to Immortal Techniques, they are a hundred times more terrifying than any Earth-level combat technique!
With his ability to shrink the earth, a distance of over a hundred feet can be covered in a single step in his eyes, and a thousand miles can be reached in a day or two.

It is both a method of movement for pursuing and escaping enemies, and a supreme movement technique for fighting enemies.

Body cultivators need to be close to the enemy, and this applies to fourth-level body cultivators as well.

Within ten miles is the realm of body cultivators, and right now, the Tiger Subduer and the Golden Roc Mothership are only ten feet apart!

With a wave of its hand, boundless air currents split the sky and parted the sea. The Golden Roc mothership, though in the air, was as if it were in the sea, suffering from the ravages of the wind and waves. Before the hand could fall, it was about to sway and crash down.

Furthermore, due to the ghostly movements of Master Fuhu, the third-tier Spirit Explosion Flame Cannon group was unable to lock onto him and posed no threat whatsoever to him!

Master Fuhu's strength is indeed remarkable; he truly possesses the ability to subdue dragons and tigers!
But he still underestimated Su Qing.

Just as the giant hand was about to fall, the golden-haired lion brothers made their dazzling entrance.

Brother Wind Lion summoned a fierce wind.

Brother Rain Lion recruits clouds and mist to generate rain.

Brother Lei Shi received the purple lightning.

The electric lion spewed out countless electric snakes.

Wind, rain, thunder, and lightning converged into a single mass, unleashing a deafening roar.

Thunder roared down from the sky, striking everything within a hundred miles. Even if the Tiger-Taming Immortal's ability to shrink the earth to an inch was incredibly elusive, he still couldn't escape the pounding of lightning in the face of this deluge!
The heavenly lightning, gathering the power of the four elements, struck down recklessly towards Master Fuhu, but this time, it did not produce the same effect as the Spirit Explosion Flame Cannon.

It's not that the Four Symbols Heavenly Thunder can't compare to the firepower of the Spirit Explosion Flame Cannon.

In truth, Master Fuhu is not a fool.

He had underestimated Su Qing before and suffered a hidden loss and was bombarded. This time, seeing that there was no way to dodge the Four Symbols Thunder, he immediately prepared a response.

On the back of each of the four lions, there was a illusory image of a striped tiger, emitting rays of golden tiger-shaped light. The heavenly lightning struck quickly, and the tiger-shaped light also emerged quickly. The two collided, and in the instant the heavenly lightning dissipated into nothingness, the tiger-shaped light still had the power to attack again, striking towards the four illusory lions.

"Is the power of the Four Symbols Thunder Strike even less than the protective true light of a fourth-level body cultivator?"

Seeing the result of the clash between these two methods from a hundred miles away, Su Qing couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment. Although he already knew that the Four Lions of Void were on the defensive rather than on the offensive, and that the possibility of the Four Symbols Thunder Strike injuring a fourth-level body cultivator was extremely low, it was still a method he had prepared for them at a considerable cost of spirit stones. Witnessing its ineffectiveness against a fourth-level body cultivator made him feel somewhat regretful.

Incompetent at offense, but excellent at defense!

The fourth-tier body cultivator's tiger-shaped true light was comparable to the combined power of a spirit explosion cannon.

When it landed on the four Void Lions, their figures all faded, and the protective light of the Void Lions had no effect.

This scene startled even Master Fuhu, and delighted the Green Lion King and the other cultivators who were paddling further and further away.

"Good puppets. That Spirit Explosion Flame Cannon was quite good. I didn't expect Su Qing to have hidden these four Golden Lion Puppets. They seem to have the ability to change between reality and illusion, and can even withstand the Nascent Soul stage!"

"These four are all my brothers, the Green Lion King's own brothers. The golden-haired brothers were quite powerful when they were alive, and I never expected them to shine even after death!"

"Is the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons so good to Su Qing that they're even willing to provide him with a golden-haired lion for puppet making?"

"Those were the corpses of the golden-haired brothers that Brother Su picked up on the battlefield with his own skills. Of course, since this puppet is so excellent, my Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom would not mind providing Brother Su with a few dead golden-haired brothers in the future!"

"The Demon Kingdom is so grand, would Su Qing be the only one who would order the Void Four Lions for takeout?"

The Blue-Faced Lion King was taken aback upon hearing this.

He was delighted to see the power of the Four Lions of Emptiness.

Since his father, the True King, had many golden lions, he and his father, the True King, could accept the death of a few puppets. As for whether his golden lion brothers would accept it or not? That was not important!

But if Su Qing is as stingy as Penglai Immortal Island, hoarding the Four Void Lions and refusing to sell them, then Su Qing would be a great villain who killed his brother to refine puppets, and should be punished and hunted down by the Azure Lion Clan!

"Brother Su wouldn't be so short-sighted. If he doesn't sell to others, he'll eventually sell to my Green Lion King!"

Remembering Su Qing's previous instructions to carefully observe the power of the Four Void Lions, and realizing this was essentially a product demonstration, why would Su Qing show them off if he didn't want to sell them to him? He must want to sell them to him!
The Green Lion King was right; Su Qing really wanted to pique the Green Lion King's interest in the Four Lions of Nothingness.

The Void Lions are indeed good puppets, but they need more True King blood to push them to the fourth tier.

Rather than making him an enemy of the Azure Lion True King, it would be better to let the Azure Lion True King obediently bleed out his own blood.

After all, no one knows the success rate of his crafting of the Four Void Lions. In the end, a set of Four Void Lions will require ten or twenty golden-haired corpses and hundreds or thousands of drops of True King's essence blood. They should not refuse.

After all, this is a puppet that can block Nascent Soul cultivators!
As for whether the Void Four Lions, crafted for the Myriad Demon Kingdom, can be as powerful as the Void Four Lions before us, without the power of the Void Dao Patterns, we should consider this question.

That's not important. Product displays are product displays, and real products are real products. It's normal for the two to have some differences, and they shouldn't be confused.

"The ability to shift between reality and illusion, and to eliminate attacks, is similar to the Four Elders of Emptiness of the Fire Phoenix Immortal Kingdom and the Emptiness and Reality-less Robe of my Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom."

"Those illusory Dao patterns split into three, and only the objects transformed from those three Dao patterns can utilize the power of illusion and reality. Have you melted the Sumeru alms bowl of the Ksitigarbha Buddha Kingdom into these four puppets?"

Master Fuhu stroked his beard and spoke, then suddenly his expression changed drastically, and he said coldly:

"No, the Sumeru alms bowl is in the hands of that old bald monk's disciple, who is already a Nascent Soul cultivator. It is not something you can take away."

"You couldn't even seize the Four Elders of Emptiness from the Fire Phoenix Immortal Kingdom, so... then these Four Lions of Emptiness use the Illusory-Realmless Robe of the Yuanlai Pavilion from my Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom!"

"What do you mean by the 'Illusory and Realistic Robe'? Old Master, don't make baseless accusations. The Illusory and Realistic Runes used on this puppet are the Dao of Runes that I comprehended after I met Princess Fire Phoenix and, with her permission, studied the Dao patterns on the Four Elders of Illusion."

What does this have to do with the Illusory-Realm Robe of the Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom? I've never even seen that precious robe before!

Su Qing never expected that this Tiger-Taming True Man, a brute who cultivated his physical body, hadn't lost his mind while refining his physical body. He was actually quite clever. After seeing the power of the four Void Lions, he immediately thought of the Void and Reality Cloak that had been lost for more than thirty years in his Thousand Island Immortal Kingdom!
"Whether it is or not, once I have these four little lions in my hands, I will know for sure!"

Master Fuhu harbored doubts, which Su Qing could not easily explain away with a single sentence.

They had possessed the Void and Reality Cloak for many years, and any dog ​​they randomly brought out could be considered invincible at the third rank after wearing this treasured garment; it was exceptionally useful.

This precious garment, paired with a dog, is a Void and Realityless Garment that can be used by half a Nascent Soul cultivator. If it were to fall into Su Qing's hands, then today we would have to grind Su Qing to dust, unless he is willing to give them the Four Void Lions and let these four golden-haired lions become the leaders of their Yuanlai Tower's Illusionary Sound Guild!
Fuhu Zhenren, filled with rage, attacked even more fiercely than before, and even the striped tiger behind him looked more menacing than before.

Reaching out, his palm resembled a tiger's head capable of swallowing the heavens and earth. Opening and closing, it seemed poised to devour the four illusory lions, their forms shifting between reality and illusion.

No matter how you shift between reality and illusion, I will keep you imprisoned and in my grasp. I do not believe that you can remain in a void forever, without any physical form.

Seeing that Master Fuhu had sealed off heaven and earth with a single palm strike, Su Qing was also angered.

This person is so rude! He tried to take away my puppet based on just a guess!
Regardless of whether Su Qing did it or not, you have no evidence at all. If you have no evidence, why are you stealing people's things?

An angry Su Qing was not to be trifled with. While having the four Void Lions summon the Gate of the Void Realm, she also prepared to unleash the Fish and Dragon Dance, which she had not originally intended to show, and have Bi Lian step forward to help.

The four Void Lions stood in the east, west, south, and north, their collars glowing with divine light. The divine light converged at one point, and the gate to the Void Realm opened instantly.

The moment the Void Gate connecting to the chaotic void appeared, it caused Master Fuhu's expression to change drastically.

It wasn't that he feared the gate to the void could devour his vital energy and transfer it to the chaotic void.

Instead.

"You little brat, didn't you have any parents to teach you? This Chaotic Void Realm is not something you can connect to! Close it now, close it now, and I'll admit defeat! I'll admit defeat, okay?!"

The Chaotic Void Realm is the only realm among all the heavens and myriad realms that shares the same level and status as the Heavenly Origin Realm.

This realm is inhabited by countless ancient void beasts and extraterrestrial demons, making it a realm that terrifies all the heavens and myriad realms.

Ordinary realms would be too afraid to hide in this Chaotic Void Realm, lest they be located by the ancient beasts and demons of this realm. This Su Qing is too audacious, actually opening the door to welcome guests. If he doesn't have an easy time, then the cultivators of this realm won't have an easy time either!

Seeing that Master Fuhu was panicked and willing to back down and admit defeat, Su Qing also panicked a bit. He even told his Golden Lion brothers to stop their supernatural powers and to flee to Master Fuhu's side, listening to the adult's lecture like a child.

Master Fuhu was so angry that he wished he could raise his hand and kill this scourge.

But seeing his obedient appearance, and fearing that he wouldn't be able to kill him with a single blow, he became enraged and summoned the Void Realm Gate again. He could only suppress his anger and let out a long sigh:

"Alright, you're just a rogue cultivator, it's normal that you don't understand some things since you weren't taught by an adult!"

"I feel an instant connection with you, Master. If you don't mind, I'd like to become your unofficial disciple. I humbly request your instruction; once you teach me, I will understand!" Su Qing said shamelessly. (End of Chapter)
