Mysterious mirror hanging high

Guan Lingxiao frowned and said, "So many years have passed, and the Immortal Continent's great calamity has been mentioned time and again, but when it will actually occur remains elusive... If the Divine Cauldron cultivator hasn't descended to the mortal realm by the time Qiu Dongxuan dies of old age, am I going to have to watch this enemy die of old age?"

"No, I estimate that the Divine Cauldron cultivator should be not far from the lower realm."

At this time Jing Yu suddenly spoke.

The three Divine Transformation Heavenly Monarchs all turned around in astonishment. Guan Lingxiao couldn't help but ask, "Master, how did you know this?"

Jing Yu shrugged: "I said I calculated it myself, do you believe it?"

Yang Dingfeng hesitated. "Fellow Daoist Xuan Jing's ability to divine and inquire is indeed unparalleled, but it is only at the Nascent Soul stage... Over the years, we have sought out several Daoist Huashen experts to perform divination, but we still cannot predict the future..."

The implication is that he doesn't believe Jing Yu has this ability.

Jing Yu smiled and did not refute. He just said leisurely: "I just made a random guess, it may not be accurate."

But Jing Yu's belief was not groundless. In fact, a large part of his reasoning for believing that the Immortal Continent's catastrophe was about to come was based on one point...

Guan Lingxiao becomes a god!

He thought to himself, "Ling Xiao is one of the destined children born to meet the calamity in the Immortal Continent. His divine enlightenment itself is a crucial juncture... If he can't achieve divine enlightenment before the Divine Cauldron cultivator descends to the mortal realm, his contribution to surviving the calamity will be extremely limited. How can he even be considered the protagonist of destiny?"

"But on the other hand, Ling Xiao has now broken through to the early stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. He is also a sword cultivator with unrivaled killing power. His immortal foundation and swordsmanship are incomparable to those of ordinary early stage cultivators. He should be able to protect himself in front of the Divine Cauldron Spiritual Transformation Realm..."

"If Ling Xiao is only at the Nascent Soul stage, he's too weak to reverse the situation. If the protagonist is facing a situation where death is inevitable, then he can't be called the protagonist."

"If Ling Xiao reaches the perfection of the Divine Transformation, with his magical powers, even a cultivator sent from heaven would probably find it difficult to match him. A one-sided crushing would make this drama of the intersection of fates boring..."

"If fate is truly mysterious and magical, then the catastrophe would befall us at this juncture, which is the most appropriate time."

"Since then, countless heroic figures have sung heroic and tragic songs, with one person singing and the other taking the stage. It has become a truly magnificent drama."

Jing Yu sighed secretly: "I just don't know how many supporting characters will have to leave the stage one after another..."

Li Suxuan invited Jing Yu and Yang Dingfeng to the gate of Jiange Mountain, but Jing Yu met an acquaintance in the engineering hall of Jiange.

"Wu Yuelan? Why are you here?" Jing Yu asked in surprise.

In front of him was a female cultivator wearing a gear mask and carrying a huge wooden box on her back. Her spiritual pressure was that of an early Nascent Soul.

This person is none other than the biological daughter of Wu Buchun, a close friend whom Jing Yu met in the Wushan Market. After Jing Yu established his Taoist lineage on Fugui Island in the East China Sea, Wu Yuelan, who was in the Jindan stage, came to join him. Since then, she has been serving as the head of the Mechanical Puppet Hall in the Xuanjing Immortal Sect, developing various mechanical creations for the sect.

Now he has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and become a genuine Nascent Soul True Lord.

Wu Yuelan bowed when he saw Jing Yu and said, "Greetings to the Grandmaster... I'm here at Jiange to deliver the goods."

"Goods?" Jing Yu asked curiously.

Wu Yuelan nodded, took out a storage bag from his waist, shook it lightly, and a humanoid puppet with wooden texture appeared in front of everyone.

"Master, you have been in seclusion for these years, and you may not know the function of this thing."

Wu Yuelan smiled and said, "This [Na Yuan Ling Gui] is also an object that my disciples have only researched in recent years."

"This spirit puppet is made of [Na Yuan Spirit Wood] as its main body. This wood is not only extremely tough and has a good protective effect, but it is also very efficient in transmitting mana and true energy with very little loss in the process."

After saying that, Wu Yuelan slapped the back of his head, and suddenly a Nascent Soul Dharma Image with only one eye on its body jumped out from the back of his head and instantly disappeared into the chest of [Nayuan Lingkui].

The humanoid puppet seemed to come alive, its eyes suddenly became extremely smart, it made a few hand gestures, and cast a few spells, the process of which was extremely smooth.

Then the void around the puppet vibrated, and the puppet in which Wu Yuelan's Nascent Soul resided escaped into the void without any hindrance.

After a moment, the puppet returned to the world from the void, and the Nascent Soul flew out and returned to Wu Yuelan's physical body.

"Master, cultivators in the early stages of the Nascent Soul have limited control over the aetherial void. They've always been unable to carry their physical bodies with them and escape into the aetherial void. And as everyone knows, the Nascent Soul's departure from the body will somewhat affect a cultivator's overall combat power... This [Na Yuan Ling Gui] is a product that solves this pain point."

"As long as a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage places his Nascent Soul Dharma image within a spirit puppet, it's like having an extra physical body. Not only does it not affect the use of magic and supernatural powers, but the spirit wood is also very tough, which is equivalent to having a physical cultivation base. It's almost a weakened [Dual Cultivation of Dharma and Body] cultivator."

"Besides, the spirit puppet is not my own flesh and blood after all, so even if it is damaged, it doesn't matter. It will give me more confidence to fight for my life."

"Ordinary cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul can instantly increase their combat power by 30% to 50% by using their Nascent Soul to reside in the [Nascent Soul Spirit Puppet], and can even fight against cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul."

"Besides, this thing can be used by cultivators in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul and above. After all, the physical body is precious, and having a spare body that is not afraid of damage is always a good thing."

Jing Yu touched his chin and said, "Sure... This thing must be expensive, right?"

Wu Yuelan blinked. "It's a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth it... It might be unaffordable for an ordinary Nascent Soul sect, but for a wealthy and powerful Spiritual Transformation sect, this expense is nothing."

Yang Dingfeng was also somewhat tempted by the sight and quickly said, "I didn't expect Donghai to come up with such a novelty again. I'll also order a batch from Songfeng Pavilion..."

Wu Yuelan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Qi Tianjun. Tianxu Island's latest mechanical puppets are always sold to Jiange and Songfeng Pavilion first. This is only the first batch. Once production capacity is increased, we will naturally send another batch to Songfeng Pavilion."

Li Suxuan nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, the effect is exactly the same as previously agreed. Jiange will take this batch of goods."

Wu Yuelan took out a long staff inlaid with purple jade and tried to sell it to Li Suxuan:

"Tianjun Suxuan, why not take another look at this newly improved [Purple Thunder Staff]..."

She took out a mechanical sparrow with an agile body and an aura that seemed to be at the initial stage of foundation building, and released it into the air to fly around. Then she placed the [Purple Thunder Staff] on her arm, aimed it at the mechanical sparrow, and pressed a switch at the end of the staff.

Suddenly, the purple jade on the top of the staff glowed, and a lightning ball flew out at an extremely fast speed and hit the mechanical sparrow.

The mechanical sparrow chirped and flapped its wings to avoid the thunder ball. However, the thunder ball seemed to have a tracking effect. It turned a corner and hit the sparrow's mechanical body accurately, easily blowing the sparrow, which had the combat power of the initial stage of foundation building, into pieces.
