Chapter 210 – Stargazer Master’s Fall
Chapter 210 – The fall of the Master of the Star-Selecting Tower
The Black Turban Rex’s strand of residual consciousness was integrated into the puppet soul, and for the time being it wasn’t enough to control the power of the puppet soul, because that strand of residual consciousness was too weak.
After saying a few words, the Black Turban Rex voluntarily entered a state of slumber, it still had to integrate the Puppet Soul a little bit, as well as control the power of the Puppet Soul.
Only then could it eventually rely on the power of the puppet soul to manipulate this Black Turban Rex puppet.
Su Yu put it away in the Palace of Magical Artifacts, the divine soul recognition mark between him and the puppet soul was still there, and the integration of the Black Turban Rex’s wisp of consciousness in turn allowed Su Yu to become its new master, and he was able to control everything about the Black Turban Rex.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yu secretly said in his heart, “This is a good thing.”
With the Black Turban Rex having its own consciousness and being able to manipulate its body freely, it would be equivalent to having an additional strong person under his hand that was comparable to the peak of the YuanYing Realm.
The dao body puppet, on the other hand, could still do its own thing.
And the ability of the puppet soul, but can swallow the essence of the material to enhance the puppet grade, in the future, maybe the body of the Black Turban Rex, can also be transformed into the fifth stage.
Only this needed to raise the puppet soul’s own grade, right now the puppet soul was still only equivalent to the fifth level of the YuanYing realm.
It was still far from being able to raise the Black Turban Rex’s grade.
Su Yu re-integrated his divine soul into the Red Puppet, the Black Scarf Rex puppet revived its own consciousness, then he could only turn the Red Puppet into his own dao body puppet once again.
The Red Puppet’s current rank had been raised to a strength comparable to the fourth level of the YuanYing realm.
It wasn’t too weak.
However, if the puppet soul was gone, then the Red Puppet’s future grade would only stay at this level.
After thinking about it, Su Yu asked the Dao Body Puppet to bring back the third-ranked fine pills he had refined over the years to the Ten Monarch Immortal City, and he also gave the fourth-ranked lower top-grade puppet Shadow Sword Puppet that he had forged earlier to it to bring back to the sea domain Huangling Island.
This kind of dao body puppet plus shadow sword puppet, equivalent to a YuanYing realm fourth layer plus a YuanYing realm third layer combat power, think guarding Huangling Island is no problem.
Time passed one after another.
Since some years ago, Su Yu had been refining fourth-order lower-grade pills for Fourth Immortal City’s Fan Xiao, Jiang Hao, Chen Chuan and other elders, giving them some high-quality pills from time to time, and with the supply of these pills, the Fourth Immortal City’s cultivation environment had gotten quite a bit better again.
Fan Xiao’s cultivation speed had also increased a little bit.
In the ninth year of Su Yu’s arrival, Fan Xiao led the 3,000 Earth Immortal Army to hunt in the Land of Extinct Spirits, and met up with the Dao Son of the Second Immortal City of the Yu Dragon Palace again.
The 3,000 Earth Immortal Army took on the other side’s 1,800 Dragon Transformation Guards, and after a battle, each side retreated with some damage.
Upon their return, Fan Xiao, Su Yu, Huang Shidao, Jiang Hao and the other core figures of the Fourth Immortal City deliberated.
“Although our numbers were superior in this battle, the other party’s Dragon Transformation Guards were extremely strong, and in one battle, we lost nearly three hundred people and injured nearly five hundred.”
“The other party, on the other hand, is estimated to have only lost over a hundred people, and should have less than three hundred injured.”
“This battle looks like we repelled them, but in reality, we still lost.”
Huang Shidao wasn’t surprised and said, “The Second Immortal City of the Yu Dragon Palace has been based in the Desolate Domain for more than 2,000 years, and it has 3,600 Dragon Transformation Guards in it, most of whom are third-ranked warriors, and there are twenty to thirty fourth-ranked ones as well.”
“And our Fourth Immortal City has been based for less than a hundred years, being able to smoothly retreat from their hands is already extremely good.”
This was the first battle between the Fourth Immortal City and the Yu Dragon Palace.
This battle also made Fan Xiao realize that surviving in the middle of the Desolate Domain and raising the Fourth Immortal City’s depth and strength was a completely different matter from ruling over the various minor forces in the Black Hell Immortal City region.
Under the banner of the Earth Immortal Mansion, that was just a novice village level grind.
And having come to the Desolate Domain, this was where strong people truly grew.
Without waiting for Fan Xiao to catch his breath, more than a month later, in Su Yu’s cave, the Heavenly Thunder Mouse Demon King was the first to appear in front of Su Yu to report, “Master, a Dragon Transformation Guard has come from the Yu Dragon Palace, numbering more than two thousand and five hundred, and it is heading towards the Mica Gold Spirit Mine.”
In the next moment, the Heavenly Thunder Mouse Demon King’s complexion changed slightly, as if he had seen some message, and added, “The people from the Yu Dragon Palace have arrived and are attacking the Cloud Mother Gold Spirit Mine!”
Under the Sky Thunder Mouse Demon King’s bloodline aptitude, it was able to peek into the vision of its own descendants whose bloodline was strong enough.
In the middle of a huge mountain range shrouded in thick clouds, two warships descended from the sky.
The next moment.
Two army-forming Dragon Transformation Guards killed out, their ferocious aura coalescing monstrously, as if they were two blood dragons coalescing in the sea of clouds, roaring the heavens and deafening the ears.
“Kill!”
A white-clothed figure walked out of the battleship, one person in the lead, holding a dark blue magic sword, gathering the power of the great formation breath of the two armies of Dragon Transformation Guards, and chopping towards the great formation defense barrier of the mineral vein in front with a sword.
With just one sword, the defense barrier, which was strong enough to withstand the late stage of YuanYing, rippled monstrously, reaching the limit of the power it could withstand.
“Boom!”
Under the attack of that Dao Son of the Yu Dragon Palace, as well as the support of the Dragon Transformation Guards, it only took less than half an hour for the great formation of that vein to be breached, and the one True Lord Elder of the third level of the YuanYing stage who was guarding the vein, as well as two hundred Earth Immortal Army members, were all killed by the Yu Dragon Palace.
Spying on this scene, the Heavenly Thunder Mouse Demon group that was hiding under the ground immediately fled, only spying from afar, lest they be discovered and purged.
Fan Xiao, Huang Shidao and the others were the first to learn about the attack on the vein, and the elder guarding the vein reported the matter with a summoning token when the Yu Dragon Palace attacked.
In the Great Hall of Immortal City, Su Yu, Fan Xiao, Huang Shi To and the others gathered once again.
Mica Gold Spirit Ore was a fourth-ranked spirit ore that possessed properties such as lightness and toughness, making it a superior spirit ore resource for use in top-grade magic weapons, armor, and other things.
The spirit ore vein that was seized by the Yu Dragon Palace was one of only three fourth-order resource sites among the dozen or so resource sites under the Fourth Immortal City!
Huang Shi To sat at the first place on the left side and frowned, “Yu Dragon Palace made such a decisive move and directly took the Mica Gold Spirit Mine, I’m only afraid that they won’t stop and will continue to make moves.”
If the resource lands under the Fourth Immortal City were truly seized by the Yu Dragon Palace in their entirety, then the Fourth Immortal City could be said to be basically ruined and could only withdraw.
And in the face of such a situation, retreating they definitely couldn’t.
Otherwise, Fan Xiao, the son of the Dao, would have no future for a long time to come.
Elder Jiang Hao took a deep breath and said, ”Should we ask the other Immortal Cities for assistance? Even if it’s the third Immortal City, as long as they come to their aid, then this second Immortal City of the Yu Dragon Palace won’t be able to be so arrogant.”
Elder Chen Chuan also looked cautiously at Fan Xiao and said, “I think it’s necessary, if we let Yu Long Palace continue to be arrogant, the losses will only be greater.”
Su Yu similarly nodded, “We are all juniors, while the First Immortal City, the Second Immortal City, and the Third Immortal City are all our elders, and if we are bullied, then naturally we have to look for our elders to stand up for us, this is the natural thing to do.”
Huang Shi To and the other Yuan Ying elders, likewise agreed with this.
Fan Xiao readily accepted good advice and listened to the opinions of the crowd.
However, after waiting until the two elders Jiang Hao and Chen Chuan had taken the people out to ask for help, Fan Shin found Su Yu and asked, “Junior Master, do you think asking for help is bowing down to someone?” Su Yu snorted at this and said, “When people are weak, they have to learn to utilize all available resources to make themselves stronger, including care and shelter from a family, what bowing down, when you’re weak, you should just crumple up and throw away your pathetic self-esteem.”
“You only need to remember one belief, and that is to get stronger.”
“When you become strong, you can have anything you want, but when you’re still weak, don’t be so fucking pretentious.”
“All you have to do is make sure you stay alive and get stronger.”
The Dao Son of the Second Immortal City of the Yu Dragon Palace was just as Elder Huang Shi To expected, and after taking the Mica Gold Spirit Mine, he didn’t just stop.
Instead, they directly attacked and seized all three fourth-order resource lands under the Fourth Immortal City’s command, and at the closest point, they were already less than ten thousand miles away from the Fourth Immortal City.
However, more than two years later, two elders, Jiang Hao and Chen Chuan, returned to ask for help, bringing one thousand Earth Immortal troops from the First Immortal City, Second Immortal City, and Third Immortal City each, for a total of fifteen YuanYing True Monarch Elders, and three thousand Earth Immortal troops of third-order strength from the three cities.
On that day.
Fan Xiao led all the Earth Immortal Armies of the Fourth Immortal City, a total of 6,000 people poured out.
When the people of the Yu Dragon Palace learned that the Fourth Immortal City had come to their aid, they withdrew in advance from the resource lands they had previously seized and occupied before Fan Xiao led the Earth Immortal Army to kill them.
However, Fan Xiao obviously did not stop there, and directly led the 6,000 Earth Immortal Army to kill towards the region of the second Immortal City of Yu Long Palace.
This battle lasted for more than a year.
The Earth Immortal Army of the Earth Immortal Mansion killed outside of the Second Immortal City of the Yu Long Palace, broke through more than twenty resource lands of the Second Immortal City of the Yu Long Palace, and killed nearly a thousand of the Yu Long Palace’s Dragon Hardening Guards.
After recapturing all the losses, they withdrew before the arrival of support from the other Immortal Cities of Yu Long Palace.
After the battle, the Earth Immortal Mansion and Yu Long Palace each had their own waves and losses.
With the Earth Immortal Mansion’s strength and foundation in the Desolate Region, it was not afraid of the Yu Dragon Palace, and if the Yu Dragon Palace wanted to go to war, the Earth Immortal Mansion was completely unafraid, and was able to directly confront it.
At this point, there was absolutely no need for Su Yu to take the trouble and make a move.
Fan Xiao’s strongest reliance had never been him, but rather the Earth Immortal Mansion.
He had come to the Fourth Immortal City with the goal of being a salted fish.
Cultivating peacefully, improving his alchemy, formation, talisman arts, and so on, and enhancing his strength little by little were his main matters at the moment.
Fifteen years after coming to the Fourth Immortal City.
The Black Turbaned Rex in the Palace of Magic Weapons woke up again, and had completely integrated into the puppet soul, but the puppet’s grade was still very low, only equivalent to the fifth level of the YuanYing realm.
The current battle power that the Black Scarf Rex was able to exert had to rely on devouring spirit stones to energize and replenish the core before he could do so.
With spirit stones, the Black Scarf Rex’s battle power would only be useful.
However, the good thing was that with the Black Turban Rex’s consciousness as well as the puppet soul’s manipulation, the power consumed by the Black Turban Rex had been greatly reduced, and with 100,000 medium grade spirit stones, it was enough for it to maintain its body for a few years.
Of course, the exception was during the great battle.
Otherwise, even Su Yu would have a hard time raising such a puppet battle force.
This year.
Su Yu slipped away from the Fourth Immortal City and returned to the Ten Monarch Immortal City through the First Immortal City’s teleportation array.Originally, Su Yu was only thinking of coming back to look at Yu Ke’er in the Hundred Flowers Sect’s Cave Heaven Mystic Realm as well as Ma Tianling, and to see if the Hundred Flowers Sect had gotten out of control.
But when he returned to Ten Monarch Immortal City, there was a message spreading in Ten Monarch Immortal City.
Su Yu’s face changed when he heard the news, “The Star Picking Tower’s owner has fallen?”
The Star Picking Building Master had fallen, and the Star Picking Building had experienced a great change!
The old ancestor of the Star Picking Building was surrounded and fled to an unknown destination, and Dao Son Ma Shiqing was nowhere to be found!
Now.
Stargazer’s original elder became the new owner of the building, but Stargazer is no longer the previous Stargazer, but to the Moon Pavilion, became a force under the Moon Pavilion.
Hearing this news, Su Yu frowned and pondered for a long time, he first went to the Earth Immortal Mansion’s stronghold in the Ten Monarch Immortal City to find the Six-Tailed Fox True Monarch Elder, and asked her for information about the Star Picking Building as well as Ma Shiqing.
However, the information from the Earth Immortal Mansion was equally devoid of the movements and traces of the Elder Ancestor of the Star Picking Tower as well as Ma Shiqing.
Su Yu then walked into the Heavenly Book Pavilion, but the Heavenly Book Pavilion similarly could not find the two.
After a fruitless search, Su Yu could only go to the Hundred Flowers Sect’s Cave Heaven Mystery Realm first.
As a result, just as he entered the Hundred Flowers Sect’s Cave Heavenly Realm, he saw the unconscious Ma Shiqing who had suffered a serious injury, as well as the Star Picking Tower’s Old Ancestor whose body was already permeated with the Heavenly Five Decaying Decaying Decaying Aura and whose lifespan was no longer much.
In the Hundred Flower Sect’s Cave Heaven Secret Realm, the Hundred Flower Immortal Palace.
Su Yu, the old ancestor of the Star Picking Tower, Yu Ke’er, and Ma Tianling stood together, looking at the unconscious Ma Shiqing who was lying on the jade bed with a face that had aged by dozens of years.
Star Picking Old Ancestor’s eyes carried the slightest hint of icy killing intent as he gritted his teeth and said, “There is a traitor in Star Picking Building, they don’t want me to set up Shiqing as the new Star Picking Building Master.”
“When they were about to pass on the throne a few years ago, they made a sudden move, and a full three Divine Fraction Venerables killed their way into my Star Picking Building.”
“If it wasn’t for his master’s desperate and deadly defense, blocking those people for a few moments, I wouldn’t have been able to take Shiqing away and hide here.”
Su Yu pondered for a long time and said, “Behind this matter, is there still the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace interfering?”
The Star Picking Ancestor nodded and said, “Of those three people, two of them are the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace’s Divine Separation Venerable.”
Su Yu couldn’t help but have a bit of a headache when he heard this, if the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace and the Finger Moon Pavilion’s group knew that Old Ancestor Picking Star as well as Ma Shiqing were hiding here .
He looked towards the unconscious Ma Shiqing and said, “What kind of injuries did Brother Ma suffer?”
Old Ancestor Starcatcher said, “Soul damage and a great loss of longevity. He forcibly activated a side of the Heaven and Earth Grand Formation, which has the effect of spatial diversion, and it was in this way that the two of us were able to smoothly avoid the ears and eyes of the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace and hide here.”
This injury was fine!
Su Yu took out a drop of Heavenly Marrow Soul Liquid and helped Ma Shiqing to swallow and refine it, and he also took out some of the fifth-order lower-grade spirit liquid that he had accumulated over this period of time and handed it to Old Ancestor Star Picking, so that he could refine it and stabilize his body as well as his longevity.
More than two months later.
Ma Shiqing finally woke up, and after refining three drops of Heavenly Marrow Soul Liquid and a large amount of Fourth Order Inferior Grade Spiritual Liquid in a row, he recovered from his injuries.
Only in terms of longevity, he had lost at least a hundred years this time.
Watching Ma Shiqing wake up, the Star Picking Old Ancestor seemed to have made a decision as he looked at Su Yu and said, “Please also ask Little Friend Su to take me to the Earth Immortal Mansion Immortal Sect to introduce me, I want to pay my respects to the Earth Immortal Mansion Lord.”
