“Lady Jin Ying, it is still too early to say this,” Mo Wen said, looking at Jin Ying with a faint smile as his eyes flashed. “We can discuss later how we will distribute the Vital Qi. After all, although the Vital Qi mass is before our very eyes, whether or not we can get it is hard to say. You can’t think that such a precious thing can just be taken like that, right?”

He was not angry. In times like this, having an extra person was not necessarily a bad thing. With the strength of at least three people, the success rate of obtaining the Vital Qi improved greatly.

Although he did not walk up to the pool, he could sense that a shocking killing spirit permeated its surroundings. Everywhere was dangerous.

Yin Banshuang raised her eyebrows slightly. She looked at Mo Wen, then looked at Jin Ying. Then she fell silent, silently agreeing with Mo Wen’s suggestion. At this moment, being enemies with Jin Ying indeed did not bring any benefits. Instead, it could delay their chance to obtain Vital Qi. Indeed, the strength of an extra person could make things easier.

As for after they obtained the mass of Vital Qi and how they would distribute it, whether they would backstab each other or negotiate was a matter for later. Right now, they could not consider these things at all.

“Both of you seem to understand the bigger picture. Okay, if both of you have no objections, I will also not object to working with you both for a while,” Jin Ying said as she nodded her head and curled the corner of her mouth. She naturally understood the same logic and would not make a foolish decision.

“There are three Puppet Monsters in the pool. Each one of them has cultivation no less than that of the Golden Elixir realm. Do we each take one?” Yin Banshuang said expressionlessly.

After she said this, she ignored the others and stepped towards the pool first. In an instant, she had walked to the center of the pool. Out of the three of them, she knew the place so she knew what would happen next.

As she had expected, after she entered a certain area of the pool, an astonishing roar suddenly sounded from inside it. It seemed as though an ancient piece of machinery had awakened, releasing an ear-piercing sound of grinding metal.

Rumble! In the huge pool, a roar sounded. A huge hand extended out from the ground at the bottom of the pool. The hand was the size of a stone grinding disc and looked like the claw of a monstrous beast. But it was made of an unknown metal that was completely black with a cold metallic luster.

The large hand had barely appeared when it furiously swung towards Yin Banshuang. The huge hand cast a shadow that was tens of feet long on the ground.

Yin Banshuang seemed to have been prepared. She dodged the attack with a flash. The huge metallic claw swatted a hole that was a few meters deep into the ground.

Rumble! Rattling sounded from the dried up ground at the bottom of the pool. Then, a huge figure crawled out from the ground, turning over the soil layers. The scent of earth grew thicker. The thing that had been hidden under the ground was completely revealed as it came into the light.

It looked like a monstrous beast with an ape-like appearance, but it was not a monstrous beast. The huge fellow was completely black, its entire body made of ice-cold metal. It was no different from the Transformers on television in the main space.

“Puppet Monster.” Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. He naturally knew about Puppet Monsters. In the Immortal Cultivation world, although puppet mastery was very uncommon, powerful puppets were very frightening things. He had heard rumors before that powerful puppets had extremely powerful abilities. They could kill Supreme Profundity realm immortal cultivators and even those of higher realms.

Among immortal cultivators, only those proficient with stratagem techniques and gimmick techniques could manufacture puppets.

So he did not underestimate the Puppet Monsters at all. If he had not known that this immortal cultivator palace had been abandoned for many years and that with the decay of time, the remaining Puppet Monsters would certainly not have much energy left, he would not have dared to come for the mass of Vital Qi at all.

“There are two more Puppet Monsters hiding underground below the pool. I’ll take this one.” Yin Banshuang made her intention clear and furiously dashed towards the ape-shaped Puppet Monster. With the power of the White Tiger Divine Power, her figure instantly grew to over three meters. Her sturdy figure clashed with the steel puppet.

She knew everything about two of the three Puppet Monsters in the pool and wasn’t concerned at all. Although the puppets were strange, they were still only at the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm in terms of power. It was nothing that she couldn’t handle.

The reason why she had taken the lead was not to stand out, but because she knew that the Puppet Monsters that came first would certainly be the two who weren’t very powerful. She knew nothing about the third one but that wasn’t something she had to worry about. Someone would go and test the waters later.

Rumble. Below the pool, a rattling sound sounded again. Then a huge figure burrowed through the earth, and another Pupper Monster appeared. Affected by the power of Yin Banshuang and the ape-shaped Puppet Monster, another Puppet Monster had awakened.

This Puppet Monster was not as large as the ape-shaped one. It could even be said to be dainty. It was a rat-shaped Puppet Monster, no taller than a meter. Its two metal eyeballs kept rotating, giving it a very lively appearance.

Its eyeballs turned a full circle, and its gaze locked onto Yin Banshuang. It did not even look at Mo Wen and Jin Ying, completely ignoring them.

A look of astonishment flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. The rat-shaped Puppet Monster had a very simple intelligence. It could determine who was easy to deal with and from there make decisions.

As he had expected, the rat-shaped Puppet Monster’s silhouette flashed and it dashed towards Yin Banshuang. It actually was prepared to join forces with the ape-shaped Puppet Monster to deal with Yin Banshuang, intending to take her down first.

“Interesting.” Mo Wen smiled. Puppet Monsters certainly did not usually have intelligence and were not equipped with independent thought. For it to be able to make judgments, it was obvious that this Puppet Monster was not typical. The puppet master that manufactured this Puppet Monster was certainly an outstanding one.

Unfortunately for the Puppet Monster though, time had flown. No matter how incredible the Puppet Monster, it could not withstand the decay of time. Maybe long ago, these two Puppet Monsters had been very powerful. Now though, they only had ten-thousandth of their power. It was still very impressive.

Mo Wen did not let the two Puppet Monsters surround Yin Banshuang. With a dash, he blocked the rat-shaped Puppet Monster.

A golden light flashed and a huge fist rumbled towards the rat-shaped Puppet Monster. Who would have thought that the rat-shaped Puppet Monster would actually agile beyond compare? With a nimble roll, a few parts of its body shifted position, actually dodging Mo Wen’s punch. It was insanely agile.

On the other side of the pool, Jin Ying seemed to have walked into a garden. However, she had barely taken a few steps, when a creepy sense of danger welled up inside of her. It made her immediately stop in her tracks in fright.

“There is a prohibition.” Jin Ying drew in a cold breath. Only now did she realize that this garden was not as simple as it appeared on the surface. With her experience, she naturally knew what an immortal cultivator prohibition was. She could not, however, see through it and it was even more impossible for her to know the exact location of the prohibition. But her innate sixth sense caused her to subconsciously think of this possibility.
