Eternal madness

Chapter 167 Shocking Change
The little incident on Xiao Li's side also came to an end. Most people were still fighting over the scroll, with Wang Ming and Tian Yinzi both vying for it.

"Hmm? This is a high-level Earth-rank combat skill?" Wang Ming snatched a scroll and probed it with his soul power. The result was not Heaven-rank, but high-level Earth-rank.

Tianyinzi also made some gains, managing to snatch three scrolls, but upon closer inspection, he discovered they were all high-grade Earth-rank scrolls.

Then everyone gathered together. The members of the Yin Valley had obtained a total of five scrolls. Wang Ming got one scroll, Tian Yinzi grabbed three scrolls, and during the gathering, one scroll suddenly fell on Xiao Li's head and he picked it up.

As for others trying to steal Xiao Li's scroll? Sorry, Yun Yun's sword is extremely sharp, and she immediately chopped several ignorant Dou Zun into pieces.

"They're all high-level Earth Rank? Could it be that the Heaven Rank is on the remains of a Dou Sheng? Or perhaps on those two puppets?" Xiao Li's gaze fell upon the three figures in the center.

At this moment, the white jade skeleton in the middle remained unchanged, while the two purple-gold puppets were covered in blood. They were the powerful figures who had tried to seize the remains of the Dou Sheng, but were killed on the spot by the two puppets.

As time went by, the outer Heavenly Demon Puppets were gradually dealt with. Xiao Li originally wanted to pick up more Heavenly Demon Puppets, but most of them were completely destroyed. Xiao Li only managed to pick up twelve Heavenly Demon Puppets.

Just as everyone was fighting over the scroll, a few drops of blood suddenly dripped onto the skeleton of the Battle Saint. The skeleton, which had been sitting upright in the center, suddenly came to life and stood up.

"Damn, it's turned into a zombie? Quick, let's get out of here, something's strange!" Xiao Li didn't expect that this Dou Sheng skeleton would actually turn into a zombie. However, given the methods of the Thousand Demon Saint, it was quite reasonable for him to use some methods on his own body before he died.

Xiao Li retreated immediately, while the other powerful figures continued to rush towards the remains of the Dou Sheng.

"Hahahaha, the remains of the Dou Sheng are mine now!" A Dou Zun expert laughed loudly, reaching out to grab the remains.

The skeleton that was standing suddenly had a strange light flash in its eyes. Its withered arm grabbed the arm of the Dou Zun, and then the purple-gold puppets on both sides threw a punch with all their might, turning the Dou Zun into bloody foam.

Blood and flesh flew everywhere, scattering across the bones of the Dou Sheng. The blood and flesh that splashed onto the bones instantly seeped into them as if they were water touching cotton.

hum-

An astonishing aura emanated from the skeleton of the Battle Saint. The skeleton raised its large hand towards the sky, and then a vast amount of energy gathered in its hand.

"Run! There's something wrong with this Dou Sheng skeleton!"

In an instant, a crimson fireball hundreds of feet in size gathered in the hand of the Dou Sheng skeleton, which he then hurled directly at the crowd.

Those who did not escape were instantly burned to ashes upon being touched by the fireball.

"Everyone, let's attack together!"

Suddenly, some powerful figure shouted, then stood at the forefront, intending to use spatial power to banish the fireball into the boundless void.

With this powerful figure taking the lead, all the experts whose cultivation had reached the Dou Zun level stepped forward and tore through the void. Then, a huge void rift swallowed the fireball. After seeing the fireball enter the void, everyone immediately closed the void.

Boom——

Just as the void closed, the fireball suddenly exploded, tearing countless cracks of varying sizes into the surrounding space!

"Trespassing on this Saint's ruins! Die!"

The skeleton of a Battle Saint in the center slowly raised its head, its empty eyes flashing with a faint red light. An ancient, hoarse, and indifferent voice resounded throughout the hall. "Everyone, do not panic. This skeleton of a Battle Saint has likely had some kind of restriction triggered, causing the soul imprint within it to be activated. In the end, the Thousand Demon Saint is already dead; this remains are not the true Battle Saint!"
"If we join forces, we can definitely defeat him. We'll use our most powerful fighting techniques to shatter his corpse, and then obtain the remains of the Battle Saint and the Heavenly Rank cultivation techniques—it'll all depend on our own abilities, okay?"

A powerful figure spoke up. This figure was extremely strong, having reached the peak of the Ninth Rank Dou Zun, only one step away from becoming a Half-Saint.

"Elder Bo Xuan is right! Let's join forces and destroy that Dou Sheng skeleton!"

"That's right!"

A peak ninth-level Dou Zun expert named Bo Xuan laughed and said, "Alright, let this old man win the first prize, Saint Xuan Bo!"

Bo Xuan made a peculiar hand seal, and then a powerful battle aura gathered in front of him, instantly shattering the space around him!
Whoosh! A hundred-foot-wide energy wave erupted out!

Boom——

The two purple-gold puppets attacked again, neutralizing Bo Xuan's Heaven-Rank Battle Technique.

"Damn it, puppets again!" Bo Xuan said angrily. With his cultivation level, he could naturally tell that the two purple-gold puppets possessed strength close to that of a Dou Sheng, and had considerable intelligence, knowing how to protect their master.

Two puppets, equivalent to high-level demigods, possess incredibly powerful physical bodies and intelligence. How can they possibly win?

Xiao Li stared at the skeleton of the Dou Sheng and the two purple-gold puppets beside it.

'Where will the Thousand Demon Saint's legacy be kept? Could it be engraved on his bones, like the Creation Saint? That's a possibility, but can we take down these two purple-gold puppets? Let's give it a try!'

Xiao Li released his puppet army once again, using the same old method: letting the puppets carry his blood to subdue them. However, this time Xiao Li planned to use a different approach!
In an instant, Xiao Li's twenty Heavenly Demon Puppets merged into one giant purple-gold puppet, which charged toward the purple-gold puppet on the left.

The purple-gold puppet seemed to sense something. When it saw a puppet just like itself rushing towards it, it tilted its head as if it were thinking about something, but couldn't figure it out.

Just as the puppet was pondering, Xiao Li's purple-gold giant puppet seized the target and violently fused it into his body!

About a minute later,
Xiao Li could already sense the fluctuations of that high-level semi-saint puppet, which must be because the soul imprint had covered the original imprint of the Thousand Demon Saint.

Xiao Li immediately recalled the puppet, and under the watchful eyes of many, yet another puppet was subdued by Xiao Li.

"Hahahaha, Master Wang Li did a good job collecting them! Only one last puppet is needed; we can deal with it easily!"

The most difficult things to deal with in this main hall were the two purple-gold puppets. Now that one has been subdued by Xiao Li, the remaining one, along with the skeleton of the Dou Sheng, is much easier to deal with.

Xiao Li didn't care about anything else; he was observing the newly acquired puppet. He sensed that this puppet was somewhat different, so he placed it beside him and then used his soul power to probe it.

A moment later, Xiao Li's eyes widened in disbelief. He probed his soul power again and saw two scrolls of unusual color placed inside the purple-gold puppet.

Xiao Li could clearly see their handwriting!
