Wu ng’s body, after being severed in two by the Golden Jiao Scissors, fell to the ground.
The next mont, the two segnts of the corpse twisted and transford, astonishingly turning into a wooden puppet about a foot long.
As his figure flashed swiftly, Chen Hai landed where Wu ng had died, looking at the wooden puppet cut in two on the ground, his brow furrowed, his expression darkened.
"This thing, if I’m not mistaken, must be so sort of Substitute Puppet."
"Wu ng, if he really was Wu ng, having such a treasure and still managing to escape with his life under the current circumstances, it must be said, he’s quite impressive, far stronger than an average Golden Immortal!"
"Fortunately, my Eye of Greed is powerful enough to forcefully snatch away his God-Slaying Blade and Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower."
"With such a haul, this trip wasn’t in vain, not a busy day for nothing..."
Crouching down, Chen Hai picked up the wooden puppet broken in two from the ground and held it in his hands, examining it closely for a while.
This type of puppet, clearly made of wood, had material heavy as tal, and within, faint veins could be seen.
Originally, what the material of the wood was, only remained unknown.
Now, due to the puppet being cleaved into two and completely ruined, as Chen Hai held it, it visibly weathered rapidly.
In just a few breaths, the heavy puppet first decayed and then directly turned into ashes, floating down from his fingertips to the ground.
"With my current knowledge, not to ntion crafting such puppets, just crafting from this wood, I can’t even recognize."
"Otherwise, getting ten or eight of these puppets for self-defense, what a wonderful thing that would be!"
"Alas, I didn’t capture Wu ng alive; otherwise, I really would’ve liked to ask him where he got such a magical life-saving item."
With a hint of regret, Chen Hai sighed lightly.
Of course, while he thought so, he also knew that this idea was completely impractical.
After all, the Substitute Puppet that allowed Wu ng to escape from a sure-kill strike by the Golden Jiao Scissors was certainly not simple just by thinking about it.
Such a treasure, even if one searched the entirety of Primordial Land, could hardly be found in large quantities; Wu ng possessing it was purely good luck, the kind of person who might step in dog poop every ti he walked outside.
"Wu ng really has quite a few nice things on him."
"Besides the destroyed Substitute Puppet and the God-Slaying Blade and Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower that I took, there might be other treasures on him."
"Always so content to hide away, could it be that he is one of those rare great-fortune types?"
With this thought crossing his mind, Chen Hai secretly mused.
Though the destruction of the Substitute Puppet was a pity, rembering the God-Slaying Blade and Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, constantly rippling within the mist in the Void Space evolved from the Eye of Greed, his brows lifted, eyes smiled, and his mood instantly improved a lot.
After all, the God-Slaying Blade, although unremarkable, was still an Acquired Spiritual Treasure made for slaughter.
As for the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower...
Its fa was already being discussed during Chen Hai’s era on Blue Star.
It was said that this item was the Supre Treasure for protecting the Supre Saint himself, that with the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, one could reside in an undefeatable realm.
Although these were rely rumors, with no one able to confirm that those rumors were indeed fact, securing this treasure filled Chen Hai with unhindered joy.
"Supre Saint’s Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, able to withstand even the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array’s attacks, yet couldn’t resist my Eye of Greed."
"This Divine Skill that I’ve cultivated, impressive indeed!"
"This technique, once used, although it does not target people, its ability to counteract various instrunts is so great that probably not even Saints can compare with ."
...
Smugly pleased with himself, Chen Hai thought inwardly with delight.
The only thing that he felt sowhat regretful about was that when his mind had delved into the Eye of Greed’s void space and he carefully inspected the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, he found that this treasure bore several fissures and seed sowhat damaged.
Chen Hai couldn’t even imagine—for a Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower that could withstand the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array—why it would end up in its current state!
Perhaps his Eye of Greed was able to forcibly seize this treasure, and it being severely damaged and greatly reduced in power was closely related.
Even so, he was still overjoyed.
After all, when Wu ng wielded the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower, he had personally experienced its power.
To speak bluntly, even the greatly weakened Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower still proved to be much stronger than the Golden Jiao Scissors.
If he hadn’t had the Eye of Greed, which could precisely counteract it, he might have been crushed into dust by Wu ng wielding the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower.
"Wu ng, what a good guy!"
"Letting have the opportunity to leave the Heavenly Mansion mining area is one thing, but running over here and even going so far as to send several treasures."
"However, since he had successfully escaped, for the sake of safety, I cannot stay here long. I must leave quickly!"
Withdrawing his consciousness from the void space within the Eye of Greed, Chen Hai sensed his own situation and muttered to himself.
Originally, he was already not far from reaching Heavenly Immortal Perfection.
Both Li Kuishan and Sun Tu had died by his Devouring Touch, and having devoured these two Heavenly Immortals, the benefits he received were enough to step into the Heavenly Immortal Perfect Realm.
As for breaking through to the Great Realm directly into Golden Immortal?
Since there was a significant bottleneck, achieving this feat definitely wouldn’t be possible by devouring alone.
For Chen Hai, his current priority was definitely to find a stable place first, refine the power he gained from devouring within his body, and step into Heavenly Immortal Perfection.
Glancing around, he gathered the spoils left behind after the deaths of Dongfang Mu, Li Kuishan, and a few others, then his body flickered, leaving a series of afterimages as he flew forward.
...
In the mining area, inside Enemy-breaking Camp of Heavenly Mansion territory, within an isolated courtyard.
"Puh..." a muffled sound.
The kitchen’s stove, which hadn’t been cleaned for who knows how many years and looked greasy and dark, exploded outright.
From among the debris of broken bricks and shattered tiles, a pale, feeble arm lifted the rubble above and stretched out.
Following that, an upside-down iron pot slowly rose from beneath the ruins.
"Damn it, I spend all day hunting geese, but this ti I actually got pecked by one!"
"That Chen Hai, not only does he possess the lethal treasure of the Golden Jiao Scissors, but he has also cultivated such a bizarre Divine Skill that even my Heaven and Earth Exquisite Mysterious Yellow Tower was forcibly taken from by him."
"This ti, I’ve really suffered a huge loss, even using the substitute puppets ant for saving my life in this incident."
"It’s always been , Wu, who robs others of their treasures, but to have my hard-earned treasures stolen by that Chen Hai, this is absolutely intolerable."
"I won’t let that Chen Hai live in peace..."
Gritting his teeth and cursing, Wu ng erged from the ground, shook off the large black pot on his head, and swore aloud.
