Swallowing the Stars: 100x Return for Teaching Apprentices

Chapter 136 The Arrival of the Shangqing Avatar
The F9-level mechanical puppets have extremely strong defenses, and with the addition of countless E-level peak puppets absorbing the energy of the entire Thunder Prison to power them, their attacks have also become extremely powerful!
Each F9-level mechanical puppet possesses combat power comparable to a powerful World Lord Warrior!

There are nearly ten thousand such F-class puppets distributed throughout the entire Thunder Prison!
Of these nearly ten thousand F-class puppets, almost half targeted Balin, the only immortal god in the human squad.

The sword light energy attack of the F-level puppet, which was condensed with the terrifying energy of the Thunder Prison, was so powerful that even Balin dared not completely withstand it and could only try his best to dodge it.

A total of five thousand puppets, in batches of one thousand, each time with one thousand puppets wielding their swords simultaneously, the sword light energy storm was almost continuous.

With an immortal god-level rock giant lurking nearby, even Bahrain's self-preservation became a problem, leaving him with no energy to look after others.

"Damn it, there are so many F-rank mechanical puppets! This mechanical immortal is really too troublesome!"

Balin dodged through the gaps in the storm of sword light time and time again, and sometimes even had to collide head-on with the immortal rock god, making his situation extremely difficult.

Meanwhile, the other members of the team were on the verge of death.

They had just awakened from the illusion of the immortal transparent jellyfish alien race when the sword light storm emitted by the remaining five thousand F-level puppets completely enveloped them.

At the critical moment, Poison Bee controlled his newly upgraded cyan-black main battle puppet to hold the line in front, and Qi Yuan, with his psychic weapon transformed into the Ancient Thunder Pool, desperately spewed out the power of time to sweep wildly. Only then did they manage to break through the storm of sword light with great difficulty.

After just one round of attacks, the Poison Bee main battle puppet was severely damaged, and its internal energy circuits were on the verge of collapse. It would probably be difficult for it to withstand another round of attacks.

To make matters worse, the other two alien immortals surrounding them launched another attack on them.

The transparent jellyfish rippled slightly at the edge, and invisible soul spikes instantly pierced into the bodies of the team members!
Apart from Qi Yuan and Du Feng, whose souls were strong enough to withstand it, all the other team members felt as if their souls were being torn apart. Even the two illusionists in the team, who were known for their souls, had unfocused eyes and extremely painful expressions on their faces!
An immortal-level soul attack is naturally incredibly powerful!
At the same time, another humanoid beast's immortal compressed divine power attack had already reached their heads.

Even the menacing metal golems in the distance had almost completed their energy charging once again.

"Those lightning golems are charging so fast!"

At this moment, an overwhelming sense of despair rose in the hearts of everyone in the team.

Two alien immortal gods, plus a large number of lightning puppets whose combined attack could even suppress immortal gods, left them with absolutely no hope of survival in the face of such a powerful opponent!

"It's over."

Are we going to die here?

Above the Thunder Prison, inside the silver-white pyramid spaceship.

The immortal mechanical race who controlled the puppet's attack revealed a human-like smile on his alloy-cast face.

"Heh, this human squad is quite tenacious. But the more tenacious they are, the greater the rewards we can get from killing them!"

"It seems that bringing those three vassal tribes along was a wise move. So far in the battle, apart from expending some energy, my puppet army has not suffered any losses."

The Immortal of the Machine Race smiled smugly.

"Ok?"

His expression suddenly changed slightly.

"Beep!" "Beep!"

The detector, which had been completely calm, suddenly started sounding an alarm.

On the detector's screen, a red dot suddenly appeared and approached at near-light speed.

Looking at the location of the red light spot, it was already close to the edge of the Thunder Prison.

"To think we only discovered them at such close range, they must be carrying a highly effective detector!"

The machine race's immortal consciousness raced through the air. "Is this reinforcement for that human squad? Hmph, how could I let my prey escape so easily?"

"Squads F01 and F02, intercept the enemy; the rest, continue the attack. Increase the power supply of Thunder Prison by 20% and strive to end the battle within two rounds of attacks!"

Following his command, two thousand F-class puppets from the puppet army that had been besieging Balin and the others immediately turned around and rushed towards the side of Thunder Prison.

Outside the Lightning Prison.

A silver-white triangular spaceship gradually slowed down and was then directly stored away.

"call!"

A black-haired youth wearing cyan star armor and carrying a blood-red divine sword appeared in the void.

The figure was none other than the Shangqing clone that Qi Yuan had previously released, which had been secretly following the Bahrain team!
When the Bahrain team was besieged by the Thunder Prison, Shangqing's clone had already been secretly approaching.

The detector on Shang Qingfen's body was customized by him before he returned to the extraterritorial battlefield, using his five-star customer privileges at the Cosmic Galaxy Bank, and costing nearly 30 Mixed Yuan Units.

Although it might be slightly inferior to the detector of the mechanical race immortal, the mechanical race immortal's detector was currently using a wide-range reconnaissance function, which greatly reduced its detection capability.

However, Shangqing's clone only needed to shield the spaceship's range, which is why he was able to get so close.

Shangqing's clone looked at the pyramid-shaped spaceship floating above the Thunder Prison. Upon seeing the size of the pyramid-shaped spaceship and the shimmering energy shield around it, he reluctantly abandoned his plan to capture the leader first.

The energy shield of this level of mechanical spaceship is absolutely terrifyingly powerful. Even if it could be breached, it would take a lot of time, and the members of the Balin team inside couldn't wait that long.

"Save them first!" Shangqing's clone made up his mind instantly.

call!
The Shangqing clone, clad in cyan star armor, burst into speed and charged directly into the lightning-filled prison.

"You dispatched two thousand F-class puppets to stop me?"

The moment he entered, Shangqing's clone saw the two thousand F-class mechanical puppets surrounding him.

Behind them, two more E-class lightning golem legions, totaling 20 units, followed and powered them. The mechanical immortals had previously reduced the entire Lightning Prison to a diameter of approximately 1000 million kilometers to increase its power output, thus bringing the two sides extremely close.

"After obtaining the clone, I have been cultivating and honing my skills in seclusion for over a hundred years, but I have never truly unleashed my full power. Today, I'll use you as my practice targets!"

With a slight sway, Shangqing's clone instantly created tens of thousands of figures in cyan battle armor within the lightning world of the Thunder Prison!

Each figure was incredibly solid, and invisible fluctuations swirled around their bodies, making time and space around them somewhat blurry and uncertain.

Swish!Swish!Swish!Swish!
Tens of thousands of figures erupted simultaneously, rushing into the oncoming puppet army almost instantly!

Behind each figure, a series of afterimages followed, and in the blink of an eye, it seemed as if the entire puppet army was surrounded by a dense mass of figures in cyan armor.

Each figure drew their sword—

The sword light was sharp and omnipresent!
The sword light attack was so powerful that even the surrounding void was faintly torn apart!

Almost instantly, the entire puppet army was completely engulfed by the omnipresent, dazzling sword light!

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
One after another, the E-level peak lightning puppets responsible for powering the machines exploded, releasing a large number of sparks. Even the two thousand F-level mechanical puppets were bombarded by the sword light, and their internal precision components were damaged, causing them to stand still.

hiss hiss hiss~~~
In a short time, more than half of the 20-strong puppet army was torn apart and destroyed by the sword light.

The two thousand F-class mechanical puppets that were given special attention were completely wiped out. After their components malfunctioned from the bombardment, they were all collected into the world ring by Shangqing's clone.

Swoosh~~~
The remaining less than 100,000 lightning golems quickly scattered, clearly having received orders to retreat.

The Shangqing clone did not pursue, and the tens of thousands of illusory bodies merged into one and rushed towards the battlefield in the center of the Thunder Prison!

Thunder Prison, the core battlefield where the Balin Squad, three alien immortals, and a massive puppet army meet.

The members of the Bahrain team all had a hint of despair on their faces, while the three alien immortals were all grinning savagely.

"Haha, hunting with Prince Dormond is so easy! All I have to do is hold off the enemies and protect those core puppets. It's awesome, so awesome!"

"Human squad, stop resisting and become our heroes!"

Several alien immortals were mocking them wantonly.

"what?"

Suddenly, several alien immortals, including members of the Balin team, all looked in a certain direction from the Thunder Prison—

In that direction, a fierce sword light suddenly erupted!
Under that sword light, a massive puppet army was instantly swallowed up and scattered.

Immediately afterwards, the sword light receded, but a hazy blue phantom shot rapidly toward their location.

"Hmm? Human reinforcements?"

The three alien immortals were slightly taken aback.

"You three, hold off that human reinforcement. I'll concentrate my forces to wipe out the human squad first!"

The voice transmission from the mechanical immortal rang directly in the ears of the three alien immortals.

"Ah, us?"

The three immortal beings from different races all looked slightly unpleasant.

They had just witnessed the human reinforcements destroy a massive puppet army in the blink of an eye. That must have been at least a peak Immortal Army Lord level expert. How could they be sent to deal with that?
"Just hold him off for a moment, and after I wipe out the human squad, I will concentrate the entire puppet legion to deal with him personally!" The voice transmission of the mechanical race immortal continued.

"Just a brief entanglement?"

The three immortal beings from other races were slightly relieved.

"Don't worry, Your Highness Dormond, we will definitely buy you enough time."

"Leave it to us!"

"Visser used illusion magic to distract him, while Tura and I engaged him in close combat!"

After a brief exchange, the three alien immortals finalized their plan. Then, they all abandoned the members of the Balin team and quickly headed towards the approaching blue figure.

"Huh? That's..."

"Reinforcements! Our reinforcements have arrived!"

The members of the Bahrain team also noticed this scene, and they all became excited.

"That comrade-in-arms."

With the pressure eased slightly, Captain Balin couldn't help but glance over there, but quickly looked away and shouted encouragement to his teammates around him.
"Guys, our reinforcements have arrived! Hold on a little longer, and we'll be able to break through soon!"

Over there, Shangqing's clone looked at the three alien immortals approaching him, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

Those puppets are, after all, inanimate objects. As long as their speed exceeds their operational limits, they are relatively easy to deal with.

These three true alien immortals are the best candidates to test your strength!
"Speaking of which, I've never killed an Immortal on my own before. Today, I'll start with you guys!"

Seeing that many readers didn't like the apprenticeship scene in the extraterritorial battlefield, we can't make major revisions to the earlier parts. We'll speed things up and move on to that part as quickly as possible.
