Chapter 3277: The Power of the Seventh-Rank Puppet (None Today)

A piercing sound rang out as a long spear, shimmering with blue light, shot over and instantly appeared before Xu Sen.

Xu Sen frowned. Forming a hand seal, he caused countless thick blue vines to emerge from the ground, quickly weaving into a tall blue wall that blocked him. Simultaneously, he conjured a blue shield that spun continuously around him.

The blue spear struck the tall blue wall, instantly tearing open an opening, and then hit the blue shield. A muffled thud echoed, and the blue shield wobbled slightly.

A golden light flared behind Xu Sen, revealing a stoic-faced youth in a golden robe. The golden-robed youth had a pair of blue iron wings on his back.

As soon as the golden-robed youth appeared, he moved his arms, striking towards the blue shield.

With muffled thuds, the blue shield slammed into Xu Sen's protective spiritual aura, sending Xu Sen flying backward.

He quickly turned his head, spitting out seven rays of blue light that shot straight towards the golden-robed youth.

A hint of smugness appeared in his eyes. His vital magic treasure was a set of flying needles, all mid-grade Spirit-Profound Treasures, which even a seventh-tier demonic beast wouldn't dare to withstand directly.

The seven rays of blue light struck the golden-robed youth's vital points one after another, like striking a copper wall and an iron rampart, emitting dull "ding-ding" sounds.

"A seventh-tier puppet beast?" Xu Sen's face drained of color. Seventh-tier puppet beasts were rare items, not commonly seen even in the Profound Spirit Continent. The Wang family actually possessed one.

He flicked his sleeve, and a jade ruyi scepter, shimmering with blue light, shot out. A miniature tree was carved on its surface. He infused it with a hand seal.

The blue jade ruyi scepter immediately glowed brightly with blue light, then rapidly expanded against the wind, transforming into a towering tree hundreds of feet tall, with lush branches and leaves.

The towering tree's branches grew explosively. After a blur, they transformed into two giant blue hands that seized the golden-robed youth, while thick blue vines broke through the earth and coiled around his body.

The golden-robed youth struggled fiercely but could not break free from the blue vines' restraint.

Countless profound runes emerged on the golden-robed youth's hands. After a blur, they transformed into two golden long blades, shimmering with golden light, which he slashed towards the blue vines.

All the blue vines snapped. The golden long blades struck the giant blue hands, shattering them both.

The blue iron wings on the golden-robed youth's back gently flapped, and he vanished from his original spot.

Xu Sen seemed to realize something, and his expression changed. Just as he was about to cast a spell to defend, a gigantic yellow sand dragon swooped in.

Xu Sen formed a hand seal, and the towering tree quickly moved to block him.

The yellow sand dragon crashed into the towering tree with a muffled thud. Countless thick blue branches grew from the towering tree's surface, coiling around the yellow sand dragon's body like tentacles.

A yellow light flashed, and a giant yellow peak, greatly enlarged, appeared above Xu Sen's head, falling directly down.

Before the giant yellow peak even landed, a powerful gravitational force enveloped him. Xu Sen felt his body weighed an immense amount.

Xu Sen formed a hand seal, and the hands of his humanoid phantom illusion made an upward gesture above his head. Simultaneously, a large number of blue vines emerged from the ground, weaving into two giant blue hands that supported the giant yellow peak.

A gentle breeze blew past, and the golden-robed youth reappeared. His fists moved, his punches roaring like thunder, as dense golden fist-shadows struck the humanoid phantom illusion one after another.

With muffled thuds, the humanoid phantom illusion dented inwards, and tiny cracks appeared on it.

The humanoid phantom illusion glowed brightly with blue light, and the cracks quickly healed.

The golden-robed youth's right hand transformed into a glittering golden giant hammer, smashing towards the humanoid phantom illusion. Simultaneously, he opened his mouth and spat out a ray of golden light, which pierced through the humanoid phantom illusion's chest. The humanoid phantom illusion disintegrated into specks of spiritual light and vanished.

As soon as his dharma idol was shattered, Xu Sen spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood, his face slightly pale.

The blue iron wings on the golden-robed youth's back gently flapped, and he vanished from his original spot.

The giant yellow peak's spiritual light greatly intensified, and the two giant blue hands shattered, allowing the giant yellow peak to crash down directly.

Xu Sen was greatly alarmed. He wanted to evade it, but the powerful gravitational force imprisoned him, making evasion impossible.

A scream of agony rang out as the giant yellow peak slammed into the ground, shaking the earth and mountains.

The giant yellow peak flew up, revealing a massive crater on the ground. A miniature Nascent Soul flew out from the body, its expression filled with panic.

Xu Sen had used various body-substituting treasures before, but he had no high-grade ones left on him. This time, his physical body was directly destroyed.

A yellow ray of light descended from the sky, enveloped the miniature Nascent Soul, and swept it into a yellow jade bottle, where it vanished.

Wang Qingcheng let out a long sigh of relief. His gaze towards the golden-robed youth was filled with joy.

In a one-on-one fight, he was no match for Xu Sen, whose divine abilities countered his own, and whose cultivation level was higher. Fortunately, Wang Qingcheng had a seventh-tier puppet beast.

Seventh-tier puppet beasts differed significantly from sixth-tier ones. Besides being more durable, their refinement difficulty was higher, and their divine abilities were stronger. Parts of a seventh-tier puppet beast's body could even transform into weapon forms. Of course, seventh-tier puppet beasts consumed more energy, requiring more top-grade spirit stones for activation.

Having dealt with Xu Sen, Wang Qingcheng intended to assist his clan members in eliminating the enemies.

The Dragon-Devouring Beast had already been killed by Wang Qingxiao. Wang Qingxiao, Wang Yidao, Duan Tongtian, Wang Xiangrong, Wang Lin, and Wang Tunian were currently attacking Mu Hai's group of three.

A woman's tragic cry rang out. Wang Qingcheng looked towards the source of the sound, seeing a dazzling golden blade light, like a towering pillar, cleave an entirely blue whale in two, with blood splattering on the spot.

As soon as a miniature whale left the body, it was enveloped by a golden ray of light and swept into a golden gourd.

Wang Yidao's strength was quite formidable; even Mu Yao, who was at the mid-stage of the Integration Realm, was no match for him.

Wang Qingxiao and Duan Tongtian were dealing with Mu Hai, while Wang Lin, Wang Tunian, and Wang Xiangrong were dealing with Mu Yan.

Wang Qingxiao transformed into a gigantic white flood dragon, battling against Mu Hai, who had transformed into a whale. With Duan Tongtian assisting from the side, Mu Hai was simply no match.

Wang Qingcheng and Wang Yidao, having dealt with their enemies, then attacked Mu Hai and Mu Yan.

Two fists were no match for four hands, especially since Wang Qingxiao and the others were equipped with two potent treasures: the Soul-Devouring Blade and the Illusory Moon Treasure Mirror.

Before long, Mu Hai and Mu Yan's physical bodies were destroyed. As soon as their vital spirits left their bodies, they were collected by the treasure conjured by Wang Qingcheng.

Wang Qingcheng took out Xu Sen's Nascent Soul and performed soul-searching on it, gaining much valuable information.

The Blood Whale Clan had bribed Xu Sen to help them search for Long Qingfeng. Xu Sen cultivated a seventh-tier Dragon-Devouring Beast, a mortal enemy of flood dragons, capable of sensing their aura within a certain range. He had spent hundreds of years, combined with previously acquired intelligence, to finally locate Long Qingfeng.

Wang Qingcheng transmitted a message to Duan Tongtian.

Xu Sen had initially searched for Long Qingfeng elsewhere but found no trace. Later, by a stroke of luck, he discovered Long Qingfeng's whereabouts. Only then did he dispatch his Void Refinement stage clone to notify Mu Hai; his clone was not present at this location.

"Let's return first!" Duan Tongtian suggested. "This matter is too significant. We'll discuss it back at Qinglian Island."

They quickly cleared the battlefield and left the area.
