Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master-Chapter 715 - 222: The Might of the Mechanism!_2

Shuang Ling saw the battle lines waver and took out two batches of mechanisms from the storage treasure.

The first batch comprised twenty-four Icefire Knife Mantises, forelimbs showing frost on the left and blazing flames on the right. The mechanisms were exceedingly agile, charging towards Gu Ya.

Upon entering the fray, they immediately decapitated Gu Ya’s three-headed Golden Core Wolf, forcing Gu Ya to frantically retreat, the situation turning dire.

The second batch consisted of thirty-six Xuanji Armor pieces. They spun rapidly in front of Shuang Ling, like fans, creating a huge suction force.

In the next moment, nearly all of the Bi Lin poisons were absorbed onto the armor pieces, staining them green.

The armor quickly assembled into a giant shield. The turtle shell patterns on the shield emitted a silver glow.

Mechanical Techniques — Xuangui Tianguang Shield Reflect!

In the next moment, a massive beam of light shot out from the shield’s surface, taking with it all of the gathered Bi Lin poison.

The beam’s might was astounding, directly severing a Vine Python, aiming at Bi Tengyi.

Bi Tengyi’s expression changed drastically, screaming as he took out a treasure vine staff and swung it forcefully in front of him.

In an instant, a huge Cannibal Demon Flower frantically grew from the staff’s tip.

The flower’s mouth opened wide, resembling a giant beast, and swallowed the whole beam.

After consuming the beam, the flower’s body expanded tenfold, its purple-red demon body starting to turn green, struggling to digest the strike.

The assembled shield returned to its normal form and disintegrated again, transforming into armor pieces, guarding Shuang Ling.

Shuang Ling extended her mechanical right arm and shot twelve copper balls engraved with thunder patterns from her arm.

The copper balls flew quickly, swirling with electric light in mid-air, interweaving and forming an electric grid.

Mechanical Techniques — Electric Grid Shocking!

The electric grid enveloped Bi Tengyi.

Bi Tengyi continuously cast spells, all striking the electric grid, which dissipated them.

Bi Tengyi retreated in embarrassment, not daring to confront its sharpness.

"As expected of a Nascent Soul on the surface, such impressive techniques!" Gao Cuo sighed inwardly upon seeing this.

An old voice echoed in his mind: "The future of this great battle is unclear. The Ginseng Whisker Dragon King has not confirmed participation. Yet, we are besieging the enemy’s front camp with Du Tiechuan resting inside."

"Gao Cuo, this is not a place to linger."

"You should leave now; it’s the perfect opportunity!"

Gao Cuo nodded, "Sword Elder’s words are reasonable, I’m off."

His expression straightened as he made up his mind. He stepped forward boldly, voluntarily confronting Shuang Ling: "Mechanical Princess, I am Gao Cuo, here to learn from your brilliant techniques!"

Shuang Ling saw the third Nascent Soul cultivator attacking her and felt delighted rather than surprised. This proved she posed enough threat for the Thousand Peak Forest side to be restless.

Gao Cuo’s figure flickered, splitting into hundreds of phantom images, suddenly dispersing and attacking Shuang Ling from all directions.

The phantoms cast various spells, some real, some fake, some strong, and some weak.

The battlefield was filled with dazzling colors and lights, extremely spectacular.

This scene slightly moved Lin Bufan, who was watching in a secret corner. He felt it was familiar but couldn’t confirm it.

Shuang Ling’s face slightly darkened.

Because this illusion technique was quite troublesome, she used three methods in a row without being able to see through it.

Unable to see through it, she had to defend fully, greatly increasing her consumption.

Sword Elder sensed the unfavorable situation and immediately reminded: "Gao Cuo, save some strength!"

Gao Cuo instantly restrained his power secretly.

Shuang Ling’s spirit lifted, finally finding a way to see through the illusion technique. She let out a low shout and took out a mechanism.

The mechanism resembled an armillary sphere, named Star Gnomon, emitting starlight, illuminating the surrounding area. Any false illusions rapidly dissipated in the starlight.

In an instant, the scene of colorful spell bombardments vanished, leaving only two or three spells, which were the real attacks.

Shuang Ling took a deep breath, locked onto Gao Cuo’s real body, and released seven Beidou Sword Warriors.

She shot seven Puppet Strings from her right arm, the threads flew swiftly, accurately connecting to the puppets.

The Beidou Sword Warriors, controlled by the threads, immediately formed the Beidou Seven Stars Formation and charged at Gao Cuo.

Gao Cuo engaged them in combat, quickly outmatched, covered in blood.

Demon Heart Cave Master saw his dire situation and immediately joined the battlefield.

Gao Cuo gritted his teeth and at the critical moment used the Escape Void Talisman, traversing the void, blood spilling in the air, and withdrew from the battlefield.

Demon Heart Cave Master cursed bitterly, helplessly taking his place and confronting the Beidou Sword Warriors’ siege.

Demon Heart Cave Master was much more formidable than Gao Cuo, stirring demon skills, casting various magic, countering attacks with attacks, the momentum was terrifying.

He preferred to endure sword wounds rather than eliminate the majority of the seven Beidou Sword Warriors.

Mechanical Princess saw this and smiled slightly, replenishing as many sword warriors as were lost.

Seeing Demon Heart Cave Master’s high spirits and rampant attacks, she directly threw out the mechanism Star Gnomon.

The Star Gnomon hung high, scattering starlight, illuminating the Beidou Sword Warrior puppets, greatly boosting their combat power, increasing their speed, and making their sword edges sharper.

The combat power of the seven puppets surged together, increasing the pressure on Demon Heart Cave Master, suddenly forcing him into a disadvantage.

"As expected of the Mechanical Princess!"

"Able to fight one against four, having already repelled Gao Cuo, whose life or death remains unknown."

Numerous cultivators watching the battle turned their attention to Shuang Ling.

This princess of Liangzhu Country exhibited formidable combat power, demanding serious attention.

Seeing her suppress three cultivators alone, the Thousand Peak Forest alliance had to send more Nascent Soul level cultivators to siege Shuang Ling.

One, two, three!

Six Nascent Soul level cultivators fought Shuang Ling.

Shuang Ling, using her power alone, handled six formidable enemies, significantly reducing the pressure on Liangzhu Country’s army.

Zhao Xi breathed a sigh of relief and calmly dispatched Nascent Soul cultivators to handle other challenging enemy cultivators.

For a while, six or seven battle groups formed in the central area, facing off each other.

Li Jiugu had the upper hand, Mo Yechen struggled to hold up.

Mechanical Princess Shuang Ling suppressed six Nascent Soul cultivators, keeping her battle lines steady.

Other battle groups fought one-on-one, each offering thrilling moments.

Both sides’ warriors were dazzled.

Inside the Mechanical Dragon, Sun Ning felt overwhelmed with what he saw.

This kind of Nascent Soul level battle broadened their horizons and delighted them. Usually, Nascent Soul struggles are rare to witness. But now, they not only could see it but couldn’t take it all in!

For them, just watching was a rare opportunity, allowing them to see higher-level elegance, clarify their direction, and make more precise judgments on strengths and weaknesses.

Ning Zhuo’s eyes sparkled, speaking in awe: "So strong, truly strong!"

"Is this the grace of a Mechanism Cultivator?"

"Fighting many alone, effortlessly. I can see that Shuang Ling still has strength left!"

Sun Lingtong analyzed: "Mechanical Techniques, though ranked last among hundreds of arts, are only because they require much for entry, proficiency, and great success, with high standards."

"Once truly refined, the combat power far exceeds expectations!"

"A Mechanism Cultivator forms an army alone, like Shuang Ling, not just using Mechanical Techniques, but also employing military arts and leveraging military power, thus gaining more leverage, making their combat power stronger."

Ordinary cultivators fighting one-on-one can only exert their innate combat power or have low leverage.

But Mechanism Cultivators are different. Their mechanical artifacts are costly and involve artifact refining, alchemy, array setting, talisman making, etc., with cultivation techniques, fully utilizing resources and creating much leverage in combat power.

On these mechanical artifacts, Mechanism Cultivators can do a lot, using mechanical techniques, military arts, etc.

Leverage upon leverage, not simple addition but exponential growth!

Battle Opportunity!

Shuang Ling suddenly exerted herself, causing the Knife Mantises to explode, forming a deadly attack.

Gu Ya’s face filled with horror, already severely injured, about to fall in battle.

Seeing this, Bi Tengyi stopped holding back and decisively used his ultimate move!

Divine Skills — Ten Thousand Withered Bi Lin Curse!

The sparse green phosphorescent flames had stunning power. Wherever they reached, mechanical artifacts were destroyed, turning into more phosphorescent flames.

Skeleton phantoms faintly appeared within the flames, killing intent and death vigorously spreading.

Shuang Ling’s defensive line immediately crumbled largely, threatening her life.

The alliance’s morale surged. This was the first real threat against Shuang Ling since the battle began!

Shuang Ling chuckled: "Come!"

Divine Skills — Xuanji Purifying World Wheel!

Three hundred and sixty special Purifying World Lotus Platforms were released instantly.

The bronze lotus platforms were lifelike, the petals engraved with the Evil Exorcism Chapter from the Inner Canon of Huangdi, and Kunlun Cold Jade Pearls embedded at the center.

In the next moment, blue-white flames spouted from the bottom of the platforms, shooting from the platform holes three thousand six hundred Heavenly Medical Golden Needles.

Flames and golden needles mixed and scattered, instantly dispersing the phosphorescent flames, then pursued triumphantly, causing Bi Tengyi to scream miserably, dying on the spot.
