Chapter 366: Chapter 365: Acquisition and Formation

"In any case, be careful from now on, especially you two, Qing Lin and Medusa," Xiao Ming said as he handed the Seven-Colored Origin Stone he had obtained to Medusa.

Upon hearing Xiao Ming's concern, both girls nodded in understanding, each with their own emotions.

Medusa's progress had been extremely fast due to the energy contained within the Seven-Colored Origin Stone and her unique constitution as the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python. In just a year, she had broken through four stars and reached the peak Dou Ancestor stage, only a step away from the Dou Venerate realm.

She felt that Xiao Ming had treated her very well in the previous year, which had caused her behavior towards him to soften. She occasionally even thought about how fortunate she was to have chosen such a good man as him.

As for Qing Lin, after confessing her feelings and becoming Xiao Ming's partner, she dedicated most of her time to seclusion, focusing on breaking through as quickly as possible. As a result, the opportunities for her to spend quality time with Xiao Ming over the past year were quite limited, only on a few occasions when she emerged from seclusion and Xiao Ming was not occupied with other matters.

With the hardworking guys controlled by the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils and the supply of pills from Xiao Ming, she had broken through to the seven-star Dou Ancestor.

The progress of both girls in the Dou Ancestor realm was even faster than in the original story, thanks not only to their special physiques but also to the resources provided by Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming had nothing to say about their special physiques other than smacking his lips; they were simply too abnormal.

Although their physiques were extraordinary, neither of them had reached the Dou Venerate realm yet. Therefore, Xiao Ming specifically reminded them to be cautious.

"Now, let's begin! Zi Yan, start breaking through this spatial seal!" Xiao Ming took a deep breath, his gaze suddenly sharpening, surpassing the sharpness of any sword, making it difficult for anyone to meet his eyes directly.

Qing Lin's delicate face turned serious, and within her beautiful eyes, the three-petal flower bud formed by her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils subtly emerged, exuding a strange and enchanting power that surged forth.

One by one, the controlled experts appeared in the hall, and the aura of Xiao Yi Xian and the others surged as well.

Zi Yan extended her delicate hand and began forming seals in front of her lower abdomen. Her hand speed became faster and faster, almost too fast to follow.

"Break!"

The seal solidified into a slightly peculiar hand gesture, and Zi Yan simultaneously shouted in a deep voice.

A brilliant purple light burst forth from within her, gathering in front of her hand seal like a shockwave, forcefully rushing toward the transparent spatial barrier.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

There was no earth-shattering explosion, but the seemingly sturdy spatial barrier began to crumble under the illumination of the purple light.

After a moment, the barrier completely disappeared, and the ten clusters of light in the hall suddenly trembled intensely. Immediately, a glaring intense light erupted. Under this intense light, the scrolls within turned into numerous rays of light that rushed out from within the light clusters!

As the scrolls rushed out, the entire hall instantly boiled!

At the same time, the stone statue puppets around the stone table also suddenly opened their eyes, which had been tightly shut for countless years. A rich killing intent spread at this instant!

Different from the Sky Demon Puppets, which gave off a feeling of cold and emotionless killing machines, these Ancient Human Puppets gave off an eerie and ferocious vibe, like vengeful spirits.

"Attack!"

Xiao Ming shouted violently and waved his hand. More than twenty Sky Demon Puppets stomped the ground, causing the solid floor to instantly turn into powder. Their bodies transformed into golden rays of light, charging aggressively towards the Ancient Human Puppets.

At the same time, fifteen powerful auras surged forth, and the dusty figures resembling statues rose quickly, charging towards Xiao Ming and the others. However, The Sky Demon Puppets intercepted them.

Both the Ancient Human Puppets and the Sky Demon Puppets were fearless existences. Once they clashed, the battle immediately intensified. The Ancient Human Puppets wielded weapons, while the Sky Demon Puppets possessed incredibly tough bodies. For a while, the battlefield was filled with clashing sounds!

While the Sky Demon Puppets fought the Ancient Human Puppets, Zi Yan and the others began using their respective methods to grab the scrolls.

Zi Yan was the first to lock onto a fiery-red scroll. Her foot lightly tapped on the void, and she suddenly appeared in front of the scroll.

However, just as her palm was about to make contact with the scroll, the scroll shot away like a fish, escaping her control.

"Hmph!"

Seeing this, Zi Yan snorted lightly. She curled her palm into a claw shape and fiercely clenched it towards the rapidly shooting fiery-red scroll.

With this grip, the space rippled, and the surrounding space around the scroll instantly sank, forming a narrow spatial prison that trapped it within.

"Come here!"

With a sweet shout, Zi Yan's palm suddenly exerted a powerful suction force. The terrifying force pulled the crimson scroll out of the sunken space, and it could only transform into a red light, flashing towards her palm.

Zi Yan's figure moved, and her palm clenched once again. Finally, the fiery-red scroll fell into her hands.

The others also used their own methods to grab the scrolls. There were only a total of ten scrolls, and there were no other obstructions, so the process went smoothly.

After a moment, all ten scrolls were safely collected.

Once the scrolls were collected, the group immediately joined the battle between the Sky Demon Puppets and the Ancient Human Puppets.

At this point, the fifteen Ancient Human Puppets had already been taken down by a greater number of Sky Demon Puppets, leaving the remaining puppets surrounded, struggling to resist.

Seizing the opportunity, Xiao Yi Xian instantly moved beside one of the puppets that was gathering energy for a powerful Dou Technique. Relying on her formidable seven-star Dou Venerate Dou Qi, she raised her hand and crushed the puppet's neck. She then lifted the puppet and avoided the punches of another puppet, throwing the one she was holding towards the attacking puppet.

Meanwhile, Venerable Tian Huo expelled five gray flames that merged together, enveloping two of the puppets, and causing them to burst into flames.

With Xiao Yi Xian and Venerable Tian Huo, two high-star Dou Venerates, joining the battle, the pressure on the Ancient Human Puppets became immense.

In an instant, the remaining Ancient Human Puppets were eliminated.

As the last puppet was corroded into ashes by Xiao Yi Xian's Dou Technique, the battle quietly came to an end. However, this didn't mean that Xiao Ming and the others could relax.

It seemed that sensing the complete annihilation of the Ancient Human Puppets guarding it, the Dou Saint Skeleton, which had been sitting high on the main seat, showed signs of resurgence. A sense of regret emanated from its hollow eye sockets, and a faint glow seemed to gather!

After all, having been dead for many years, even as a Dou Saint powerhouse, there was no trace of vitality left in the skeleton. It would be impossible for it to move quickly without special means.

"Xiao Ming, should we take action and interrupt its revival?" Venerable Tian Huo's expression turned grave as he looked at the slowly reviving Dou Saint Skeleton. The means of a Dou Saint were truly terrifying!

"Let the Sky Demon Puppets handle it!" Xiao Ming looked at the slightly trembling Dou Saint Skeleton and spoke in a deep voice.

There should be a last resort left around the skeleton. If someone approached, it would activate and absorb their fresh blood. Once it absorbed the blood, the skeleton would immediately revive, and the difficulty of dealing with the Dou Saint Skeleton would multiply!

After speaking, Xiao Ming's mind moved, and golden light streaked forward. He intended to control the Sky Demon Puppets to directly dismantle it.

It was a good plan, but when they reached the side of the Dou Saint Skeleton, a barrier suddenly formed around it, blocking the advance of the Sky Demon Puppets.

'Interesting. It seems that its consciousness has awakened!' With a cold sneer in his heart, Xiao Ming's mind flickered.

Suddenly, all the Sky Demon Puppets' eyes flickered with silver light, and a deep roar emanated from their throats. Immediately, their footsteps synchronized, forming a peculiar formation. Golden light shimmered, and snake-like energy surged out from within them, connecting them all together, forming a circular cycle.

"Roar!"

At the moment the cycle formed, the leader of the Sky Demon Puppets once again let out a roar from its throat. Then, in the astonished gaze of Xiao Yi Xian and the others, the golden light faded, and a hint of purple light gradually emerged. After a moment, the purple light completely replaced the golden light.
