Immortality begins with meditation puppets

Chapter 413 The Seven Warlords of the Sea, Wielding Swords to Battle the Gods

"The Sumeru alms bowl! Fulong Temple actually dares to use this treasure to make things difficult for Penglai. Aren't you afraid that if Penglai gets angry, your Ksitigarbha Buddha Kingdom will be filled with corpses floating for thousands of miles!"

How could Liu Feng not be furious that such a small alms bowl dared to impersonate his great-grandfather? The power behind the alms bowl only fueled his rage.

The Sumeru alms bowl, one of the three treasures of illusion and reality, is known to everyone in the Western Sea cultivation world. Just as the person who wears the robe of illusion and reality is the leader of the Phantom Guild and is tacitly regarded as a henchman of the Yuanlai Tower, the person who holds the Sumeru alms bowl is also regarded as a Dharma protector monk of the Fulong Temple.

This extraordinary master is holding a begging bowl; for whom is he protecting the Dharma?
Was it for Su Qing, or for Wanghai Immortal City?

In short, he represents Fulong Temple and is making things difficult for Penglai!

"Master Liaode is the owner of the Buddhist Treasure Pavilion in Wanghai Immortal City. He also owns shares in the Wanghai Fleet. His actions this time are for the benefit of the Buddhist Treasure Pavilion and have nothing to do with Fulong Temple. Master Liu, you can't talk nonsense!"

Liu Feng blamed the master's attack on Fulong Temple, which Su Qing was the first to object to.

If Fulong Temple intervenes, Su Qing will have to repay this favor in the future.

It wasn't that Master Liaode couldn't stand Zhao Zhengquan, that old man, deceiving the heavens and arbitrarily imposing laws on the world based on his own ideas, that led him to intervene out of righteousness.

Since it was Fobaozhai who did the work, they are considered family members of Wanghaixian City. We can just give them a bigger share of the battle merits afterward; there's no favor to repay.

“Master Su, this alms bowl represents my master on behalf of Fulong Temple…” Seeing that Su Qing was about to distance himself from Fulong Temple, Master Liaode was about to speak, but seeing Su Qing’s cold expression, he quickly shut his mouth, put his hands together, shook his head and smiled bitterly:

"It was I who spoke presumptuously. Master Su is right. Today, I am only representing myself and the Buddhist Treasure Temple. I have nothing to do with the Fulong Temple!"

After Master Liaode finished speaking, seeing Su Qing nod in satisfaction, he stepped on golden light and landed in the Sumeru alms bowl.

The Sumeru alms bowl is a world unto itself, and it is most effective at capturing and imprisoning people. However, if he does not personally go in to suppress it, who knows what kind of heavenly laws and regulations these Zhao family celestial officials will establish inside, and they might find a loophole to escape.

Master Liaode went into the alms bowl and discussed the Dao and the Dharma with the Zhao family's heavenly officials.

With the Zhao family's Heavenly Official's shameless decrees no longer in effect, the Wanghai Thousand Islands fleet regrouped and began firing cannons at the Penglai warriors again. The situation seemed promising, but in reality, it was not.

In this battle, the strongest fighters on both sides are at the fourth-tier Nascent Soul stage.

On Su Qing's side, there was a fourth-level general, Fuhu Zhenren, who used his injury to avoid battle, and a Nascent Soul general, Liaode Dashi, who used his alms bowl to restrain the Heavenly Officials, while at the same time being restrained by the Heavenly Officials.

On the other hand, the three generals on the other side, Liu Feng, Huang Li, and Huo Ya, are still capable of putting up a fight.

"Where is the god who should be extinct under heaven?!"

"Where is Lü Wentian of the Killing Pavilion?!"

"Where is Ji Yong'en of the Sword Palace?!"

"Where is Ye Suo of Langya Lane?!"

"Where is the method of the Demon Immortal's National Preceptor?!"

"Where is the White-Faced Green Lion King of the Demon Kingdom?!"

"Where is Li De of the Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom?!"

Su Qing faced the Penglai army, his imposing figure in the Lu Wu Tiger Puppet costume a sight to behold. He then mustered his troops and generals, who immediately obeyed his commands.

“My father-in-law is here!” Shao Delong responded on behalf of his father-in-law.

"Lu Wentian is here!" The old man Lu Wentian looked miserable.

"Me too!" Ji Yong'en had long been Su Qing's loyal henchman!

"I, Ye Suo, would gladly die to bring Ying'er home!" Ye Suo, who is not a swordsman but a lover, still loves Ling Ying deeply, even though she has given her body and soul to someone else.

"Yun'er is still on the island, we can't let Penglai harm her!" Although Shi Zhifang and Ye Suo weren't flattering the same person, their flattery skills were equally impressive.

"I am here, but I am not the main force. Ah, everyone is the main force? Then it's fine. I am not human, I am a demon!" The white-faced green lion king regretted not being a proper second-generation king and why he had come to wade into this mess.

"Li De... Li De is here too, right!" Li De was the most aggrieved. He was a member of the Thousand Islands Immortal Kingdom, so when did Su Qing ever give him orders? But it was because his superior, True Man Fuhu, had handed over command to Su Qing before he was injured and forced to retreat!
"Very well, you are the seven strongest warriors below the Nascent Soul stage of my Wanghai Thousand Islands Alliance. I will call you the Seven Warlords of the Sea below the Nascent Soul stage. You should be able to deal with Huang Li. This scoundrel was originally a defeated opponent of Langya Immortal Island. I suppose he has no real ability. You must not disappoint me!"

Su Qing waved his hand, and regardless of whether the seven people agreed or not, he ordered them to lead their respective followers to attack Huang Li, who was constantly patting his storage bag and releasing countless celestial birds and spirit beasts.

"Oh dear, this is outrageous! This is outrageous!"

Huang Li, on the other side, saw a large group of people attacking him, but instead of panicking, he became furious.

The saying goes that all those below the Nascent Soul stage are mere ants; without the combat power of a fourth-tier Nascent Soul cultivator, no one can even attempt to take advantage of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

How could Ziying, a mere member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, possibly rival Huang Li?
This is because they saw that Huang Li had been defeated before, and they thought he was weak and easy to bully!

Needless to say, underestimating Huang Li will come at a price.

With a cry from the fourth-tier red-necked white crane beneath him, dozens of third-tier red-headed geese flew out from the beast ring, joining the tigers, leopards, jackals, whales, sharks, crabs, and shrimps he had just released, and engaged in a fierce battle with Lü Wentian and his group.

As a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he is only qualified to fight against the spirit beasts under his command.

Huang Li, on the other hand, wanted to take the enemy general's head from the midst of the enemy army, and directly take Su Qing's head, so as to achieve the great merit of killing the general and seizing the flag and wash away the humiliation of being captured alive by Tong Chang!

The red-necked white crane, possessing the bloodline of the bluebird, was powered by a gentle breeze and protected by white clouds. With just a gust of wind, it carried Huang Li to within a few miles of the Bixi on Dragon Island. Huang Li's face turned fierce, and with a fire crow in his hand, he waved his palm and cast a spell. The third-tier fire crow cub under the Fire Crow True Man instantly transformed into a golden crow of the sun, blazing with the flames of the sun and burning the sky, and fiercely attacked Su Qing.

Both are the Golden Crow Daoist arts of the Sun, but the difference in power between Huang Li's and Huang Song's previous performances is like heaven and earth. However, Su Qing is also no longer the same as before.

With a thought, fish and dragons danced and stirred up waves, summoning a black dragon phantom, a dragon swallowing a golden crow, water extinguishing true fire, and puppets such as dragon-armored demon lizards, two-headed mirage dragons, nunchucks, and tornadoes to cooperate with it. For a time, Huang Li was caught off guard and unable to break through the puppets' obstruction, and he was able to injure Su Qing even slightly.

With such limited skills, he's only qualified to fight against his puppets.

Su Qing snorted coldly and turned her gaze to Liu Feng. Seeing him step into the Heavenly God Ship, she looked down on him. He was a Nascent Soul cultivator, yet he didn't know any Taoist arts or immortal techniques. What kind of skill was it to rely on a puppet!
Seeing that the Fire Crow True Man was clenching his beak and looking restless, Liu Feng didn't want the Dragon Subduing True Man who had infiltrated Langya Immortal Island to be idle. So he summoned the substitute puppet he had placed on the dragon, letting everyone know that the Dragon Subduing True Man was sneaking into Langya Immortal Island, so that Liu Feng would send the Fire Crow True Man to cause trouble for the Dragon Subduing True Man.

With Huang Li restrained and Huo Ya lured away, the three Nascent Soul warriors were suddenly reduced to just Liu Feng.

Liu Feng remained completely calm, urging the Heavenly God to lift its leg and stride slowly toward Su Qing in the midst of the army. During this process, the Heavenly God's size remained unchanged, but its body became increasingly heavy. With each step it took, undercurrents surged on the surface and beneath the sea, and waves rose, as if an earth dragon were turning over, making it difficult for even the land and sea to bear its weight.

Without the Liu family's approval and decision-making, the Penglai puppeteers would have no chance of obtaining a continuous stream of project funding for the massive Tian Shen Hao project.

Besides embezzling most of the project funds, the Liu family also secretly left behind methods on the Tian Shen ship that only members of the Liu family could use.

Besides turning the machine on and off, the Liu family's weapon refiners have figured out a way to activate the Hundred Refined Golden Body of the Immortal Gods!
As a fifth-order puppet, the Immortal God General originally possessed Heaven-level combat skills and three great divine abilities. However, due to the lack of puppeteers in Penglai who had comprehended sixth-order intelligent runes, the Heaven-level combat skills could not be regained. The three great divine abilities, namely, Law of Heaven and Earth, Punishment without Guilt, and Hundred-Refined Golden Body, were used by the Liu family to figure out the wonderful uses of the Hundred-Refined Golden Body through the methods of weapon refiners.

But this ingenious method can only be used by the Liu family. The project is still a project in Penglai, but the means are those of the Liu family!

The Heavenly God, whose outer armor had been pierced by the fourth-order Yazi Cannon, became invincible after unleashing the Hundred Refined Golden Body Divine Power. No matter how much firepower the Nine Dragon Ships and all the treasure ships poured on it, it was like mosquito bites, completely unharmed.

This unparalleled physique, comparable to a fifth-tier demon king, caused all the cultivators who fired at it to show expressions of despair, and could only watch as it approached Su Qing as if it were in an empty field.

"Even a fifth-tier puppet that can only unleash a portion of its power has such might. If it were in my hands, and I could unleash its full power, wouldn't I, Su Qing, be able to roam freely throughout this vast Western Sea!"

As a puppeteer, it would be a lie to say that I wasn't delighted to see a puppet like the Celestial God. More than anything, I felt that the Penglai Sect people were wasting their talents. It was like casting pearls before swine to throw such a fifth-tier puppet into their hands. Do you think you know how to play with puppets as well as I do?
Su Qing's eyes were sharp, and he could tell at a glance that although the Heavenly God seemed invincible, the people of Penglai had only used one or two tenths of its power.

"Immortal-god type warrior puppets should primarily utilize immortal runes, intelligent runes, and weapon runes. The Penglai people have only activated the immortal runes so far; the power of the intelligent and weapon runes has not yet been activated. Even so, there is still a way to break through them!"

He silently recited a phrase, and with a thought, all nine sons of the dragon boat, except for the Bixi of Dragon Island, transformed into Daoist patterns and Dharma forms.

The Taotie is a creature with the body of a sheep, the face of a human, the teeth of a tiger, and the claws of a human.

Yazi is a creature with the body of a dragon and the head of a jackal, holding a magic sword in its mouth.

The Pixiu has the body of a tiger or leopard and the color of gold and jade.

The Suanni, resembling a lion or tiger, possesses a unique and extraordinary aura.

······
The nine sons of the dragon are all different, but without exception, they are all divine beasts with great supernatural powers.

The Nine Dragon Boat transformed into its divine beast form, but due to the limitations of Su Qing's own strength, the owner of the Dao patterns, it could only unleash the power of the fourth tier.

However, the seven divine beasts emerged together, blocking the way for the Heavenly God Ship, making it difficult for it to advance further. The Heavenly God Ship could only wield its giant sword and engage in endless battles with the seven divine beasts.

"It's our turn to make our move!"

Inside the nest house, several Penglai professionals who had been protected by Penglai warriors stood up.

These individuals are all fourth-tier Illusionists.

This time, Liu Feng summoned them not to bewitch people, but to confuse the divine beast spaceship.

A third-tier Illusionist can bewitch living beings, while a fourth-tier Illusionist can bring inanimate objects back to life!

Seven Illusionists cast spells in unison, their whispered incantations sounding like demonic chants, and a cloud of smoke poured from their mouths into the seven divine beast airships that had been prepared beforehand.

These seven divine beast spaceships were originally imprinted with fourth-order divine beast runes, making them third-order spaceships. Compared to the giant whale, dragon, and other treasure ship puppets crafted by Su Qing, they were stronger because the materials used were more expensive and of better quality, but not by much.

But at this moment, these divine beast spaceships, under the spell cast by the Illusion Master, all felt that they were not inanimate spaceships, but divine beasts born of nature, and were born with the power of fourth-order divine beasts.

I figured I had the power to make these third-tier spaceships transform into divine beast forms.

The Jiao Rui spaceship transformed into a golden-horned white deer, its golden horns emitting golden light, knocking down the treasure coins thrown by the Pixiu's Dharma form, so that the Heavenly God could once again grasp the Heavenly God's Giant Sword and display its divine power.

The Huodou spaceship transformed into a red ape, unleashing its calamity domain, instantly negating the auspicious domain of the Bi'an ship and bringing calamity to the several dragon prince avatars fighting against the Tianshen ship.

The Meteorite spaceship transformed into a four-winged giant serpent, its hissing sound like a grand, resounding bell, drowning out the conch shell horn of the Jiaotu.

······
The Heavenly Dog spaceship transformed into the Roaring Sun Heavenly Dog Dharma Image, a huge, black, mad dog. As soon as it appeared, it licked its face and tried to bite the Yazi Dharma Image. Unexpectedly, a bear and a dog jumped out from beside Su Qing. The bear rode the dog, and the dog carried the bear, helping the Yazi Dharma Image to catch the Roaring Sun Heavenly Dog.

“Indeed, the various arts of cultivation each have their own methods. A fourth-level Illusionist can actually use illusions to stimulate the potential of living and inanimate objects. However, if these seven divine beast ships are forcibly promoted in this way, they will immediately disintegrate once the illusions wear off, making them unusable!”

The Penglai clan is large and powerful, and Huang Li didn't even flinch when he sacrificed a third-tier fire crow. At present, in order to deal with his dragon son's Dharma form, consuming seven treasure ships is probably insignificant to them.

Su Qing cursed Penglai for its greedy ways, willing to sacrifice its own offspring to trap him, a vicious wolf, but his hands moved swiftly. Since Penglai had already deployed seven Illusion Masters to deal with his Dragon Prince Dharma Image, which could no longer restrain the Heavenly God, he could accept this outcome.

Without the Nine Dragon Boat, he would have to rely on himself and his puppets to deal with the tough nut of the Heavenly God.

Fortunately, Su Qing often gnaws on tough bones; he even complains that the easy ones aren't chewy enough!
Seeing the Heavenly God's head swiveling amidst the entangled forms of the seven dragon sons, he was about to swing his sword and clap his hands, bullying the second and third-rank soldiers below.
Su Qing couldn't hold back any longer.

Liang Haishun, who had long ago donned the death-bringing cloth, knew his temperament better than he knew his own wife. He brought several array masters from Wanghai City and, regardless of the quality of the array flags, planted as many as he could. Instantly, the array flags behind him fluttered in the wind, making him more majestic than a general on a stage and more glamorous than a bride.

It's just a showy sight. Although there are many formation flags, they are all second or third-tier formation flags, with only small red and blue buffs. They are far inferior to the opposing Celestial God, which only has a fourth-tier Heavenly Dragon Flag, but it has a large dragon buff and all attributes are fully stacked!
It'll have to do. How can it compare to Penglai? Array masters know how to improve their skills and have the ability of the fourth rank. Old Liang here has spent more time visiting brothels than studying arrays these years. He can even wear a cloth and insert a third-rank array flag. It would take him a lot of his life to achieve that!
With the protection of the Four Lions of Emptiness, the Heavenly God is invincible. With the Four Lions of Emptiness, he can remain undefeated.

Activating the tiger egg on his body, he transforms into a human with nine tails. The nine tails raise a sword. The fourth-tier tiger egg can also summon the Lu Wu Dharma Image, with tiger roars constantly behind him, exuding divine might.

Wearing a tiger egg, accompanied by four lions, wielding a sword to block the heavenly gods!
That divine sword was as heavy as a mountain, its power capable of overcoming any skill.

The Nine Swords of Tianshan are a Heaven-level combat technique, where skill can overcome clumsiness.

The Celestial Sword arrived with overwhelming power, while the Nine Swords of Tianshan countered with their ingenuity.

A series of crackling sounds rang out, like metal clashing against metal. The two sides clashed, sending countless sparks flying across the vast sky, creating a spectacular scene that was even more exciting than the fireworks that had been set off earlier with the simultaneous artillery barrage.

It was just a lot of noise and excitement.

In reality, neither side caused any substantial harm to the other.

The Celestial God had no choice. Although the Celestial God's Greatsword could suppress heaven and earth with its unparalleled power, and could still hit the opponent even if it was swung slowly, Su Qing, wearing the tiger egg, possessed a Heaven-level sword skill. The sword's momentum was so strong that it could split the clouds and see the sky. How could it be bound by his stupid strength? He roamed freely in the sky, not giving the Celestial God's Greatsword a chance to touch the hem of his clothes.

Su Qing had no intention of confronting the Heavenly God head-on. The Heavenly God possessed a Hundred Refined Golden Body, and without the strength of a fifth-order cultivator, he had no chance of piercing it. Rather than wasting his energy, he might as well take advantage of its clumsy and strong nature!
They call him a simpleton with great strength, because he really is incredibly strong.

The Heavenly God, thoroughly annoyed by Su Qing, transformed into a volatile old man and suddenly roared. His roar was so powerful that Su Qing, dressed in tiger eggs, froze in place. With the giant sword pressing down again, Su Qing would be doomed in an instant.

A situation where certain death is inevitable will not result in death.

The four lions of the void opened the gate to the void realm, not only sending the giant sword, which was destined to kill, into the void chaos realm, but also sending the Heavenly God Giant Sword, which was forged using countless precious materials from Penglai, into the void chaos realm. If Liu Feng had not known the danger and broken the sword to save his life, discarding the giant sword in time, even the Heavenly God would have been pulled into the void chaos realm by the force of the two realms.

"If you recklessly open the gate to the Void Realm and summon Void Beasts and Heavenly Demons, exposing the Heavenly Origin Realm to the Void Realm's view, you will not be able to atone for your sins even if you die a hundred times!"

Inside the Heavenly God, Liu Feng questioned in a muffled voice. Although he, Penglai, often broke the rules, he had no tolerance for others breaking the rules.

How dare he disregard the safety of all living beings in the world for his own selfish gain?

Isn't this the kind of thing only Penglai would dare to do?

"If the sky falls, you big guys from Penglai will hold it up. Right now, I just want to beat you big guys up. If you're worried that I'll open the gate to the Void Realm again and attract its attention, then let the gods stop, and we'll fight each other using other methods!"

Su Qing scoffed at Liu Feng's rebuke. What? So you're allowed to build a heavenly court on Penglai Ascension Island, to act as the Lord of the Western Sea, to appoint heavenly officials, to set laws and regulations, and to establish rules for heaven and earth? What? Your rules are the only rules, and everyone else has to follow your rules?
"Very well, for the sake of all living beings, I, the True Man, am willing to make the Heavenly God cease his actions!"

Perhaps out of fear of the threat that the ever-open gate to the Void Realm posed to the Tianyuan Realm, Liu Feng was truly willing to compromise, abandoning the Heavenly God, a powerful weapon, in order to have Su Qing subdue the Four Lions of the Void.

But just as his true form slowly withdrew from the Celestial God, Su Qing on the other side was also putting the Four Void Lions into his storage bag.

It suddenly fled back into the Heavenly God's roost, and the Heavenly God swung his arm to press down on it, proving that it was a fickle and inhuman being!
"mean!"

"Shameless!"

Two more angry curses rang out, but Su Qing did not retract the four Void Lions as promised. Instead, he kept the four lions active and opened the Void Gate again the instant the Heavenly God swung his arm, forcing the Heavenly God to withdraw his attack!

"Let's see how many times your Void Four Lions can open the Void Realm Gate!" Liu Feng sneered.

"I'd also like to see how long your Celestial God can last!" Su Qing sneered.

"What do you mean? My Penglai Heavenly God can fight against heaven and earth for a month without stopping. You want to fight a protracted war with the Heavenly God? That's utterly laughable!" Liu Feng sneered, thinking to himself that rogue cultivators are just rogue cultivators, as insignificant as mayflies. How could they know the might of Penglai, which reigns supreme?

What are immortals and gods? They are genuine deities who have been registered in the divine register and received incense offerings. Don't think that they are puppets and therefore not gods. The energy consumed by their every move is paid for by heaven and earth and all living beings. They will not be tired as long as heaven and earth exist, and they will not rest as long as all living beings exist.

Seeing Liu Feng's confidence in the Heavenly God's ability to fight for a long time, Su Qing only gave him a pitying look.

He's just a second-generation immortal, what does he know?

Little did he know that the immortal general had only activated one of the three main runes. With the other two runes malfunctioning, the immortal rune activated by the Penglai puppeteer was carrying the celestial vessel at an overloaded state every moment.

It's like three people carrying a sedan chair. The other two are short, their feet don't touch the ground and they can't exert any strength, so only one person carries the load. If the sedan chair were empty, they could walk a few steps and be done with it.

For an immortal rune to fight for so long and still maintain its supernatural body is too difficult. Su Qing estimates that the Heavenly God will crash and break down in no time.

If we're talking about urgency, the Tian Shen project team, currently observing the battle from Penglai Island using the Qianlitong telescope, is the most anxious.

Yes, it's true that they cut corners and dragged their feet; even when they started the machine, they only operated it one-third of the way.

But who told the Liu family to keep their secrets and develop the Hundred Refined Golden Body Divine Power without telling us? If you don't tell us, how can we tell you? Maintaining the Great Divine Power of the Heavenly God is going to cause a huge mess!

"No need to worry. Even if the Celestial Ship breaks down, that's the Liu family's fault, not ours!"

"Exactly! We delivered the goods on time, and they were perfectly fine when we handed them over. It's all his fault for messing things up!"

"Should we send a message to him, asking him to withdraw the Hundred Refined Golden Body Divine Power, so that the Heavenly God Ship can hold out a little longer?"

"You can't say that the Godship breaking down isn't necessarily a bad thing for us. If it breaks down, shouldn't it be repaired? And wouldn't repairs require funding?"

"Absolutely, absolutely! Since completing the Super Star Orbiter Cannon project, our Puppet Master Hall hasn't been able to secure any major projects. This Godship repair project is at least a piece of meat, and getting some funding to satisfy our cravings wouldn't be bad!"

Inside the Puppet Master Hall on Penglai Immortal Island, the puppeteers tacitly kept silent.

With no one warning him, Liu Feng continued to use the Heavenly God as a perpetual motion machine. Even without the giant sword, he still wielded immense strength with his limbs and exhaled immortal energy from his internal organs, fully propelling the Heavenly God to its limits. He forced Su Qing to flee in terror. Even though the Four Void Lions opened the Void Realm Gate several times, making Liu Feng hesitant to act, he still lost three to five substitute dolls before he could continue to hop around and block the Heavenly God.

"You scum of the cultivation world, a worthless rogue cultivator, all you know how to do is run away and hide! Do you dare to fight me head-on!"

Showing off the power of the Heavenly God, Liu Feng felt that he was now almost as powerful as his family's patriarch, looking down on everyone, and taunted Su Qing.

Suddenly, a plume of white smoke rose from the Heavenly God, creating gusts of wind and scorching smoke. The Heavenly God, which had just been shaking the earth and overturning the sea, became a lifeless block of iron as if it had been frozen in place. No matter how Liu Feng inside urged it, it could not move an inch.

"Hehehe, now it's my turn!"

Seeing the Celestial God overload and crash, Su Qing, who was seething with anger, finally found an opportunity to vent.

As Liu Feng, puzzled and unwilling, broke free from the Heavenly God's Name, Su Qing unleashed his six hands and the Nine-Tailed Sword.

With eight hands and eight spears, he wielded the Peerless Overlord Spear, which incorporated the Fearless Dao Pattern and was fully stacked with the Nine Li Blood Slaughter Technique. Its power was comparable to that of a Heavenly-level combat skill, and its spear momentum was like a dragon, charging like a tiger.

Nine tails and nine swords, immovable as a mountain, yet moving like the collapse of heaven and earth, countless sword lights like the Milky Way falling from the nine heavens, even more breathtaking than his Penglai star orbit cannon fire sweeping the earth.

"Do you really think that without the Heavenly God's Name, I, Liu Feng, am completely at your mercy!"

Liu Feng roared and threw out a three-treasure jade ruyi. The ruyi shone with a warm purple light, protecting him in front of him. No matter how hard Su Qing attacked him before he could stand firm, using all his strength, with eight hands, eight spears, nine tails, and nine swords, once he fell into the purple light, it was as if he had fallen into a quagmire, unable to advance any further.

"A fourth-tier spiritual treasure?"

Su Qing snorted coldly. "A rich dog is a rich dog. Even without the Heavenly God, he still has the Spirit Treasure for protection!"

Liu Feng ignored him. Seeing that Su Qing had fled far away after failing to strike, he only activated the Three Treasures Jade Ruyi to summon a blue lion. After a brief entanglement with the lion, he himself transformed into a golden light and instantly landed in the Penglai group.

A son of a wealthy family should not sit under a dangerous roof. It is true that Liu Feng's abilities far surpass those of Su Qing, but how can a stone collide with a piece of tile? He was able to act recklessly when he had the Heavenly God's Decree, but now that the Heavenly God's Decree is gone, it doesn't matter if he lives a life of ignominy. The tide is in his hands, and killing Su Qing is only a matter of time.

Liu Feng, who had retreated to the Penglai cultivators' group, glanced at the current battle situation.

The Sumeru alms bowl jingled as Lord Taishan and the bald monk Liaode fought fiercely inside it. Although the world inside the bowl was Liaode's domain, Liu Feng was not worried about Lord Taishan's safety. Heavenly officials could formulate heavenly laws and decrees wherever they were. No matter how powerful Liaode was, in time, it would be difficult for him to fight against Lord Taishan, who had been blessed with numerous laws and decrees.

The Huang family's spirit beasts were locked in a fierce battle with the Seven Martial Warriors of the Nascent Soul Realm. Many of the Huang family's spirit beasts possessed the bloodline of immortal beasts. Although most of the beasts they released at the moment were at the third rank, their strength was still far beyond that of ordinary spirit beasts. Unfortunately, Lu Wentian, Ying Jueshen, Shi Zhifang, and others each had their own unique skills, and they could not be regarded as ordinary third-rank Golden Core cultivators. In the chaotic battle that had raged on, the Huang family's spirit beasts were bleeding profusely. Fortunately, these were all Huang family spirit beasts, and Liu Feng did not feel sorry for them when they died or were injured, nor did he have any intention of paying attention to them.

Looking at the entanglement between the divine beast avatars and the dragon prince avatars, it's clear that the real is no match for the fake. You can deceive others, but you can't deceive yourself. The divine beast avatars, manipulated by the Illusionist, were initially quite fierce, overwhelming the dragon prince avatars. But once the stalemate began, the fake proved no match for the real. The dragon prince avatars gave them a sound beating. No, there was also a bear and a dog. The bear was wielding a vajra and had a hidden dog behind it, while the black dog was fighting with the celestial dog. The bear and the dog dealt with the celestial dog avatar, allowing the Yazi avatar to escape early and go to Langya Immortal Island to cause trouble for the Penglai army there.

Seeing that the Illusion Masters could hold out for a while, Liu Feng decided not to intervene and instead focused his attention on Huang Li.

This Nascent Soul cultivator from the Huang family is truly unworthy of being a second-generation member of a prestigious family. He was captured alive by Tong Chang before, causing the Huang family and Penglai to lose face. At this moment, he can't even defeat Su Qing's puppets.

After watching for a while, Liu Feng realized that Huang Li's current predicament was due to the fact that Su Qing had released too many puppets. With the black dragon phantom as the main force, and a group of third-tier puppets, they were only used to restrain the enemy and not to defeat him. Since all the spirit beasts had been released to deal with the Seven Martial Seas below the Nascent Soul stage, Huang Li had no spirit beasts available except for the Red-necked White Crane. Although he destroyed many puppets, he was still unable to quickly end the battle.

"Send a hundred warriors to assist True Master Huang. Also, release the puppets crafted by the Puppet Master Hall. The opponent is merely a rogue puppeteer; how could his puppets possibly surpass those of my Penglai Sect!"

Liu Feng gave the order, and one by one, cultivators dressed in the Penglai-style robes stepped forward. All Penglai warriors were magic cultivators, at least at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. They were divided into teams of ten, with the team leader being a Golden Core cultivator. Each of them possessed Earth-level Dao techniques, and their strength was not to be underestimated.

The puppets brought to the battle were all quite formidable, with nearly a thousand second-tier Golden Guards and over thirty third-tier puppets such as the Yellow Wind Puppet, Black Sand Puppet, and Thunder Bird Puppet. They rushed to Huang Li's aid along with the warriors, immediately freeing Huang Li from Su Qing's puppet horde.

"Master Huang, stop worrying about Su Qing. This boy has a way to open the gate to the Void Realm to avoid harm, and he also seems to have a substitute to protect his life. He cannot be dealt with in a short time. I urge Master Huang to go to Langya Island as soon as possible and join forces with Master Huoya to deal with Fuhu. The key to today's battle is still Langya Immortal Island and the Celestial Master's Ruins. I will lead the troops to guard this place and will definitely not let anyone enter Langya Immortal Island!"

Seeing that Huang Li was still going to cause trouble for Su Qing, Liu Feng was afraid that he would be killed by Su Qing instead of killing him, so he gave him a way out and let him leave the battlefield and go to Langya Immortal Island to fight Fire Crow True Man two against one.

"Master Liu, do not underestimate me, Huang Li! Today, I, Huang Li, will surely kill this scoundrel!"

Huang Li was furious and shouted loudly, as if to prove himself. He was determined to fight Su Qing to the death today.

“Since Master Huang insists on doing it this way, then this scoundrel Su Qing will be handed over to Master Huang!” Liu Feng replied with a sneer.

"Ah, after thinking about it, I think we should prioritize the overall situation. I can kill that scoundrel Su Qing anytime, but if Fu Hu enters the Celestial Master's Ruins and obtains over a hundred divine runes, it will be too late. I'm off now!"

Huang Li shuddered upon hearing this. He didn't really want to fight Su Qing to the death. He had seen everything Su Qing was doing while he was fighting Su Qing's puppet.

This puppeteer has many puppets, many tricks, and is also treacherous. He looks like a third-level Golden Core cultivator, but when he fights, he has the power of a fourth-level Nascent Soul cultivator. Even the Heavenly God can't do anything to him, so Huang Li can.
That won't work. Rather than risking our lives here, we'd be better off going to deal with that Sick Tiger with Master Fire Crow!
Huang Li slipped away quickly, and Liu Feng, knowing his nature, simply instructed the two fourth-tier array masters behind him to prepare to activate the large array that had already been prepared, turning offense into defense. They did not seek to annihilate the enemy, but only to block all the enemy from entering the Immortal Island.

"With the presence of two True Immortals, Huang Li and Huo Ya, along with the more than one hundred divine beast ships previously sent into the island, we only need to guard this place for three to five days. All the benefits of Langya Immortal Island, the Celestial Master's Ruins, and Penglai will fall into our hands!"
