Chapter 1665: Drawing Boundaries to Create a World

Before the dense blue fist shadows could even draw close, a piercing whoosh, stinging the eardrums, emanated from them. The void vibrated as the concentrated blue fist shadows sealed off the silver roc's retreat.

Wang Changsheng held the skeleton of a high-grade Fourth-tier flood dragon. However, given his current artifact refining skills, he was unable to craft it into a Fourth-tier puppet beast, so he had temporarily stored it in his spatial ring.

Puppet beasts primarily crafted from monster beast skeletons can unleash some of the monster's original supernatural abilities, making them quite powerful. However, such puppet beasts have a limited growth ceiling. For example, a puppet beast made from a high-grade Fourth-tier flood dragon skeleton would, at most, be a high-grade Fourth-tier puppet beast. In contrast, if a puppet beast were crafted from thousand-year ironwood, its tier would depend on both the materials used and the artifact refiner's skill.

Countless silver electric arcs surged across the silver roc's body. With a gentle flap of its enormous wings, numerous silver electric arcs pulsed, and a loud thunderous roar echoed. The silver roc then abruptly vanished.

"Lightning Escape!"

Wang Changsheng had been prepared. Blue light intensified around him and Wang Ruyan, and a light blue spherical barrier of Water Moon Profound Light materialized, enveloping their entire bodies.

The moment the Water Moon Profound Light appeared, a dazzling silver lightning bolt flared above Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's heads, and a gigantic silver roc materialized, its body enveloped by countless silver electric arcs.

Boom! Following a colossal peal of thunder, countless silver electric arcs shot forth, striking the Water Moon Profound Light one after another. The barrier emitted a series of muffled crackling sounds, its spiritual light flickering incessantly.

A melodious pipa sound emanated, and a misty blue sound wave shot forth, striking the silver roc, instantly sending it flying backward. Before it could regain its balance, a dense volley of blue fist shadows flew in, successively pummeling the silver roc's body.

A series of clanging metallic collision sounds rang out, and the silver roc was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string.

A resonant saber hum echoed as a golden saber gleam, over a hundred zhang long, descended from the sky. Ripples spread through the void, and the seawater abruptly parted, revealing a rift over a hundred zhang long and more than ten zhang deep—an astonishing display of power.

The golden saber gleam struck the silver roc's skull, sending sparks flying. A faint, almost invisible, gash appeared on the skull's surface.

Puppet beasts refined from monster skeletons are immune to spiritual sense attacks and have no vital points. Unless completely destroyed, they will continue to fight relentlessly.

Just then, a blood-red light flared above the giant roc's head, revealing a blood-red net, over a hundred zhang wide. Its surface was covered with tiny, grain-sized blood-red runes, emitting an extremely foul, bloody stench.

The Blood Soul Spirit-Locking Net was primarily crafted from the silk of Blood Soul Spiders, refined with the essence blood of hundreds of monster beasts and various other materials. It was specifically designed to defile flying swords.

Wang Changsheng had refined multiple blood-path magical treasures, primarily designed to counter sword cultivators or defile other magical artifacts.

The Blood Soul Spirit-Locking Net instantly descended, enveloping the silver roc in one fell swoop.

A flash of blood-red light, and a patch of blood-red flames materialized, enveloping the silver roc.

Countless silver electric arcs surged across the silver roc's body as its massive wings flapped incessantly. The Blood Soul Spirit-Locking Net remained undamaged, and the silver roc was enveloped by blood-red flames. Blood-red light and silver lightning intertwined, neither gaining an upper hand.

A sky-piercing bird cry rang out, and the silver roc's spiritual light greatly intensified. The blood flames dispersed entirely, as if encountering their nemesis.

Countless silver electric arcs surged across the silver roc's body, overwhelming the Blood Soul Spirit-Locking Net.

The silver lightning intensified, and the silver roc broke free.

The moment it appeared, a red light flared above its head, revealing a small, shimmering red pagoda—it was precisely the Blazing Sun Divine Pagoda.

The Blazing Sun Divine Pagoda emitted a dazzling red light, its size expanding dramatically. It sprayed forth a swath of red light, enveloping the silver roc and drawing it into the pagoda.

Since the silver roc was difficult to harm with magical treasures and sound wave attacks were ineffective, Wang Changsheng directly unleashed the Blazing Sun Divine Pagoda to capture it. If he could erase Heavenly Soldier True Person's spiritual sense imprint on the puppet beast, Wang Changsheng would then be able to control this high-grade Fourth-tier puppet beast.

Boom! Following an earth-shattering roar, the azure flood dragon puppet beast was cleaved in two by the Sun and Moon Twin Saints, wielding their sect's treasured artifact, the Sun and Moon Wheel.

Heavenly Soldier True Person frowned. He had still underestimated the Nascent Soul cultivators of the East End Realm; the strength of these two high-grade Fourth-tier puppet beasts was considerable, yet they were resolved so quickly by the cultivators of the East End Realm. This was truly beyond his expectations.

The Fifth-tier puppet beast he had crafted was in Lei Yunbin's possession, and he didn't have a second Fifth-tier puppet beast on him.

On the other side, Fu Wen wasn't idle either. Wielding the Myriad People Brush, he conjured mountains, rivers, flying birds, running beasts, and even humans of all ages and genders, as if an entire world had manifested.

His divine ability, "Spatial Confinement," created a miniature world, trapping the enemy within.

Fu Wen was a rogue cultivator, but he cultivated Confucian arts, allowing the Myriad People Brush to unleash its maximum power in his hands.

The conjured mountains, rivers, flying birds, and running beasts flew in all directions. Heavenly Soldier True Person inwardly cursed; he had originally only intended to stall for a while, but now it seemed he had been a bit overconfident.

He flipped his palm, and a small, exquisite azure boat appeared in his hand. The body of the azure flying boat was carved with a lifelike azure spirit bird pattern.

This was the Flying Spirit Treasure Azure Wing Boat, one of the five flying spirit treasures in the Sky Sea Realm, and also an experimental model for the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure Azure Dragon Boat.

After he infused it with spiritual power, the Azure Wing Boat's spiritual light immediately intensified, instantly expanding to three zhang in length, shimmering with azure light and radiating astonishing spiritual energy.

Before he could leap onto it, a sudden sharp pain surged through his sea of consciousness, as if it were about to explode. He nearly plummeted from high in the sky.

The sound of rushing wind intensified as the spirit treasure Sun and Moon Wheel shot toward him, instantly appearing before him and aiming directly for his forehead.

Heavenly Soldier True Person flicked his sleeve, and an azure light shot forth, meeting the Sun and Moon Wheel.

With a muffled clang and sparks flying, the Sun and Moon Wheel flew backward. The azure light transformed into an azure banner, over a hundred zhang long, standing upright before Heavenly Soldier True Person.

The azure banner was enveloped by a misty azure gale, emitting terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations. On its surface was a lifelike azure flood dragon pattern; it was the Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure, the Azure Flood Dragon Banner.

Heavenly Soldier True Person was Shangguan Tianhong's junior brother, so it was no surprise that he possessed a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure.

By this time, the conjured mountains and rivers had already settled around him. His surroundings blurred, and he suddenly found himself atop a steep peak. Looking out, he saw a vast open plain in the distance, with numerous cultivated fields where farmers toiled, fishermen cast nets in the river, and woodcutters felled trees in the deep mountain forests.

Wild beasts ran in the forest, flying birds soared high in the sky, and butterflies and bees flitted through the sea of flowers.

It was clearly a miniature world, complete with mountains, water, and people.

As the void rippled, Fu Wen, Wang Changsheng, Wang Ruyan, Du Xu, and Fang Yue materialized, their faces grim with murderous intent.

Fu Wen unleashed this divine ability, hoping to use this opportunity to eliminate Heavenly Soldier True Person. They had traveled a great distance to the Sky Sea Realm, and killing a single Soul Transformation cultivator would be a significant achievement.
