Immortality begins with meditation puppets

In a fierce battle, he used the power of a puppet to clash with the Evil Sword Realm, one of the twelve demonic realms, and held his own.

"It's not just not at a disadvantage, it's firmly in the lead!"

"Incredible! This is incredible! Is this the firepower of a seventh-tier puppet? It's comparable to the power of a seventh-tier Dao Lord!"

"Human power is finite, but puppets are infinite. As long as there are enough cannons and enough firepower, no matter how cunning the evil spirits are or how troublesome the demons are, we can use puppets to deliver them from suffering. All the evil spirits and villains in the myriad realms can be wiped out in one fell swoop!"

"There's no comparison between people, and there's no comparison between puppets! You think Su Qing's Lingxiao Palace Puppet is difficult to forge and create? To this day, he's the only one in all the heavens and myriad realms who possesses the skill to create a seventh-tier puppet. In fact, even if we could forge this Lingxiao Palace Puppet, we wouldn't be able to unleash its current power. In our hands, it's just an empty shell. We simply don't have the ability to provide Su Qing and the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom with such a rich arsenal of puppet weapons. In my opinion, the greatest strength of the Lingxiao Palace Puppet lies not in itself, but in the thriving puppet industry support that Su Qing and the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom provide for it!"

"That's true. It's only because Su Qing and Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom have such a large puppet production capacity that they can produce so many magic cannon puppets, exorcism missiles, and these seemingly worthless little yellow men. In fact, with such a large number, they are not cheap at all. If my sect were to build an army group, the sect disciples would have to voluntarily take a pay cut and tighten their belts for a hundred years. If Su Qing were to build a dozen or so, which good sect could afford to do that!"

"At the end of the ancient demonic calamity, the Human Emperor, the Heavenly Emperor, and the Dao Ancestors, the great beings, gave us, all the myriad beings and spirits of the heavens and myriad realms, our final guidance: to develop the hundred arts of cultivation. They realized that relying solely on the flesh and blood of living beings to fight against demons was simply not enough to sustain the war. Only by utilizing more advanced, abundant, and inexpensive creations of the hundred arts could we engage in a war of attrition with the demons. They sacrificed their Dao fruits to buy us so many years of opportunity to develop the hundred arts industry. We had always thought we were doing quite well, and each sect and clan had achieved some results over the years. But now, seeing how the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom has developed its puppet industry to this extent in just a few hundred or a thousand years, we suddenly feel no different from that waste. We have accumulated tens of thousands of years more than the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom, yet in terms of output, we are still crushed into dust by this immortal kingdom!"

"I am ashamed, I am ashamed. In the past, we thought that the Evil Sword Realm was difficult to conquer, not because we were incompetent, but because the demons were too powerful. Today, it seems that the demons are not powerful. The sword light traps and the demon sword formations of the Evil Sword Realm are not insurmountable. It's just that our determination was not strong enough, our skills were not strong enough, and our firepower was not strong enough!"

"We need not belittle ourselves. In recent years, we have made great progress in various arts and crafts. Perhaps we cannot compare with the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom in low-end manufacturing, but in high-end industries, whether it is weapon crafting, alchemy, or talisman making, we have cultivated a group of highly skilled cultivators. They have also created some high-end magical artifacts, pills, talismans, etc. Not to mention, the Langya Metallurgy of the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom, don't they use the sixth-order forging furnace produced by the Yuanshi Sect to process materials such as Xuan Tie and Jin Jing?"

In response to the great battle in the Evil Sword Realm, a fierce fight within the demon's lair, the various sects and cultivators who followed the Lingxiao Palace Puppet into the Evil Sword Realm were prepared for a desperate and arduous struggle based on past experience. However, upon arriving in the Evil Sword Realm, they discovered that the intensity of the battle was far less than they had imagined. No, it was the Lingxiao Palace Puppet's battle with the Evil Sword Demon that was so intense that the pressure on their side was much less than they had anticipated. As a result, they even had the leisure to comment on the power displayed by the Lingxiao Palace Puppet.

This puppet is truly impressive.

Although some sects were dissatisfied and went against their conscience to say that those little yellow men, exorcism cannons, and self-destructing bee swarms were all low-level puppets, there were many of them, but the technical content was really not high.

However, most sects were convinced of their superiority. Yes, it was true that individual Minion puppets, exorcism cannons, and self-destructing hummingbird puppets were of low rank and lacked advanced technology, which most sects could replicate. But why didn't they go all out like the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom? It was because they couldn't lower the prices, reduce the costs, or mass-produce them!
As for Su Qing's puppets, it was only when he released the puppet blueprints that people dared to say that their technology was not advanced. Before he released the blueprints, or even before he created these puppets, who would dare to say that their technology was not advanced?
Its pioneering creation of several puppet types, such as exorcism puppets and spirit explosion puppets, has changed the puppet landscape of all realms and promoted the upgrading of the puppet industry in all realms. The solid achievements speak for themselves. Anyone who says that its technology is low-level is either brainless, heartless, or has been paid to deliberately smear Su Qing!

As for those cultivators who say that the puppets Su Qing created are low-level, I don't know if they are really stupid or pretending to be.

The Lingxiao Palace Puppet that Su Qing is currently refining is a bright seventh-order puppet right in front of them, and it is beating the Evil Sword Realm, which they could not afford to offend in the past, to the ground. Is this kind of seventh-order puppet the most advanced puppet that has ever appeared in the heavens from ancient times to the present world?
Leaving aside the Lingxiao Palace Puppet itself, let's just look at the many fifth and sixth-order puppets that have appeared on the Lingxiao Palace Puppet.

After the evil sword demon's prepared blow to the Lingxiao Palace puppet was snatched away and struck on the head by the puppet, the evil sword demon was dazed and confused. It didn't know how to deal with the Lingxiao Palace puppet now that its tried-and-true demon-linking sword formation had been easily broken.

It didn't know how to deal with the Lingxiao Palace Puppet, but the Lingxiao Palace Puppet knew how to deal with it.

On the puppet of the Lingxiao Palace, the Great Emperor of the North Pole Ziwei stood up, with heavenly soldiers beating drums and ringing bells behind him, and battle flags waving. The four ancient emperors, the Marshal of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths who suppressed demons, the Grandmaster of all things, and the Master of all stars once again donned their armor and went into battle in the present world.

Behind him was the divine team that Su Qing had cobbled together.

To be honest, these gods are really not very strong. They are mainly second- or third-tier gods. Many of these second- or third-tier gods are guardian gods that Su Qing obtained from his good brother Erqiang. They can't be said to have no combat ability. After all, even if he wanted to make up the numbers, Su Qing would not include functional gods or auxiliary gods in the combat lineup. They are all professional gods who are good at fighting. It's just that their professional abilities are average. If it were during the heyday of the ancient Heavenly Court, if you wanted to have a staff of 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, you would have to use connections and give gifts.

Of course, with the revival of Tianyuan Heaven and Earth in recent years, Heaven and Earth, feeling the shortage of gods, have been indiscriminately issuing divine runes and positions. The biggest beneficiaries of this wave of Heaven and Earth's benefits are Su Qing and his brothers. In Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom, he is the Heavenly Emperor's Walker, and in Langya Immortal Kingdom, Tong Chang is the Celestial Master of the Present World. They have some influence in Heaven and Earth and can get involved in the benefits. Most of the highest quality divine positions issued by Heaven and Earth are held by these two. Furthermore, because Su Qing and Tong Chang do not have the energy to cultivate these gods, they have transferred them to old brothers and new friends who need them.

Among them, Gao Erqiang's Xingsha Divine Kingdom gained the most. As a professional divine kingdom, Erqiang, the ruler of the divine kingdom, was often saddened because his subordinate gods were not strong enough and he had to carry the burden alone when he went out. After receiving a wave of warmth from his elder brother Tong Chang and his third brother Su Qing, he raised a team of 108,000 grassroots gods in just a few hundred years. A few years ago, he led this group of grassroots gods to fight in the Lost Land. Using the various evil creatures and demons in the Lost Land as a tempering, he finally trained this group of grassroots gods.

Unsurprisingly, just as he finished training his team, Su Qing shamelessly asked him for a team of the strongest grassroots gods to bolster the divine battle team of his Lingxiao Palace puppets.

These minor deities, though not recognized by Heaven and Earth and not included in its official structure, possessed remarkable divine runes. Nurturing them with the incense and faith harvested by the two powerful figures in the Lost Land, they are now all fourth or fifth-tier deities. Perhaps they were nothing in the ancient Heavenly Court, but in the current Lingxiao Palace Puppet God Team, they are like generals among dwarfs, each one a god general.

Besides these self-proclaimed gods, the dozens of evil gods trained by the God-Slaying Whip in the Penglai Immortal Kingdom also possess considerable combat power. In the current environment where all the heavens and myriad realms are clamoring for the extermination of evil spirits and demons, even evil cultivators are forced to have no room to survive and are transforming into black cultivators and demonic cultivators. Yet these evil gods dare to defy the winds in the Kaiyuan Immortal Kingdom, which has the strongest exorcism power in the Tianyuan Realm. They certainly lack common sense, but their strength is definitely up to par. Although they are ten times stronger when corrupted and three times weaker when cleansed, after being trained by the God-Slaying Whip from evil gods to righteous gods and reformed, their strength has indeed weakened compared to before. After all, in the past, they could use any means necessary when fighting against people, regardless of what the heavens and earth thought, without any psychological or moral burden. After becoming righteous gods, they can no longer use such methods. Otherwise, if their merit points are low, they will have to be sent to the Penglai Immortal Kingdom for reformation.

The Grassroots God General and the Transformation God General, these two teams of deities, added a lot of luster to the Lingxiao Palace Puppet's divine team. However, even so, the overall strength of this divine team was still not qualified to stand behind the Arctic Purple Star Emperor.

After all, behind this ancient emperor stood the Four Saints of the North Pole, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Eight Righteous Gods—pillars of the Heavenly Court, elite troops and powerful generals. The current divine team was at least three to five levels below them.

Su Qing knew he was somewhat shabby and unworthy of the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Star, but he had done his best. After all, the Heavenly Origin God System had been broken for a long time. Even with the great divine runes of heaven and earth supporting the development of the gods, it would still take a period of time to accumulate before they could catch up with the peak of the ancient gods. In other words, the god team that Su Qing had organized was already one of the four strongest god teams in the heavens, alongside the Guardian God Team under Er Qiang, the Celestial Master God Team under Tong Chang, and the Artificial God Team under Peng Lai. To become stronger, he would have to merge the other three god teams together, which was of course impossible. Su Qing could shamelessly ask them for it, but the key was that Gao Er Qiang and the others were unwilling to give it to him.

Lacking strength, he made up for it with equipment. To support the Great Emperor of the North Pole and prevent this ancient emperor from being wronged under his command, he spared no expense in commissioning a batch of divine armor from Jia Tianxia. Each of these gods was given a set of golden, gleaming, and powerful armor. He also had a batch of high-quality divine artifacts transported from the Yuanshi Sect by major sects such as Taoyuan Sect. These were the Peach Blossom Clouds produced by Taoyuan Sect. Such flashy but impractical artifacts were only favored by some female cultivators and had no cost-effectiveness in the eyes of male cultivators. In the eyes of a stingy male cultivator like Su Qing, they were simply a fraudulent product. Su Qing gritted his teeth and bought a batch to support them.

With no expense spared in its creation, this team of gods, regardless of their actual strength, at least has a certain effect on the scene. Standing proudly behind the Great Emperor of the North Pole, they highlight him like stars surrounding the moon.

This Emperor of the North Pole was a god who cared a lot about his reputation in ancient times. He didn't care whether his subordinates were good at fighting or not, because no matter how good they were, they couldn't beat him. But he cared a lot about whether his subordinates were up to par or whether they embarrassed him!
Right now, this Lingxiao Palace puppet, the divine team that Su Qing prepared for him, is just cheering him on from behind, and incidentally reaping some merit from subduing demons.

In a real battle, those who charged forward alongside this Great Emperor of the North Pole were still the annihilation and bombing squads arranged by Su Qing on the puppet of the Lingxiao Palace.

The two sixth-tier puppets, Divine Silver and Twin-Headed Dragon God, one on the left and one on the right, each led thousands of Pengtian Armored Puppets, hovering quietly behind the Great Emperor of the North Pole Purple Star. At his command, they could unleash the high mobility, high output, and high intelligence of the annihilation squadron to carry out targeted strikes against high-value demonic targets within the Evil Sword Realm.

The Bombardment Team was equally impressive. Optimus Prime, Megatron, Decepticons, Ultraman, Gundam, and Transformers, which Su Qing himself named the "Nostalgia for the Past" series, were all imposing and far superior to the superficial God Team. In fact, they were indeed more powerful than the God Team. They would bring even greater and more intense damage to the Evil Sword Realm than the Minions and the Exorcism Cannon Cluster had just dealt!

"All troops, listen to my command! Follow me on this expedition, take the enemy general's head, and kill any who stand in our way!"

The Great Emperor of the North Pole, his purple-yellow imperial robe billowing high, flashed and landed tens of thousands of miles away. Judging from his direction, it was the brightest sword light in the sword light sky of this Evil Sword Realm, the body of the Immortal Trapping Sword, and also the location of the Evil Sword Demon.

"As Your Majesty commands, the entire annihilation squad shall proceed in forward formation to clear all obstacles for Your Majesty!"

"By order of the Great Emperor, the entire bombardment squad is to transform into their strongest forms and unleash maximum firepower to wipe out all evil spirits in this realm!" (End of Chapter)
