Chapter 1924: A Breakthrough

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

This deities’ battle puppet’s body was terrifyingly hard. Ordinary far-distance strikes couldn’t hurt it at all. It could only be solved in close combat. Additionally, like those battle puppets that Zhang Tie met before on some special occasions, it was immortal in a restricted area. It would always recover itself no matter how many times it was shattered.

Soon after the deities’ battle puppet was sent flying tens of thousands of meters away, the cut of its body had turned into soft liquid. Closely after that, the two halves of the body flew towards each other and started to stick to themselves.

Additionally, soon after Zhang Tie made such a boom, two more deities’ battle puppets had flown over here from afar. Only after a short while, they had been within 30 miles with strong fierce qi.

“We cannot spend too much time on these deities’ battle puppets. We must solve them as soon as possible and move fast. Once being haunted by them, more and more deities’ battle puppets would arrive from different directions. Additionally, they are undying. Although they couldn’t form a powerful battle formation and overlie their battle forces, if a colony contains too many ants, they could also bite an elephant to death.” Force Emperor warned Zhang Tie secretly with his battle qi.

Closely after that, the terrifying, huge saber appeared in the hand of Force Emperor. Before Zhang Tie moved, he had darted towards the two deities’ battle puppets.

Under Zhang Tie’s gaze, Force Emperor broke the sky with his saber light. With the tactic of killing them respectively, he soon shattered the two deities’ battle puppets into pieces and turned them into drops of bloody liquid suspending in the air.

As runes flew inside them, those drops of bloody liquid started to gather up.

“Elder Long, Elder Ying, as you’re new here, you’d better stay close to the light curtain. Don’t deepen inside and try your luck until you’re familiar with the combat pattern with these deities’ battle puppets. Once you feel you can’t defeat them, you must exit the light curtain at once. These things couldn’t chase you out of the core region!” Zhang Tie turned around as he warned Long Jiutian and Ying Gucheng who had just come to his side.

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty, we won’t be greedy this time. We’ve just come here to figure out the situation in the core region and the battle force of these deities’ battle puppets. We will stay together. If we do not feel good, we will exit right away. Your Majesty, don’t worry about us. Hurry, your top priority is to find Nine-Heavens Immortal Spring!” Long Jiutian said in a muffled voice. After that, Long Jiutian and Ying Gucheng exchanged a glance with each other. Then, they didn’t follow Zhang Tie anymore; instead, they all rushed towards the deities’ battle puppet which had just been broken into two halves by Zhang Tie. Closely after that, the two people started to fight that deities’ battle puppet which had just revived.

At this moment, those supreme immortal generals of Force Emperor Immortal Palace and the other palaces who had entered the core region of Mountain Ruins had rushed in all directions. They all scattered. Many people directly entered the closest entrances as they couldn’t wait to try their lucks.

After shattering two deities’ battle puppets, Force Emperor didn’t stay there; instead, he rushed upwards.

As of now, Zhang Tie didn’t have any concerns. He then flew upwards at a speed of tens of thousands of meters per second.

If people wanted to try their lucks in the core region of Mountain Ruins, they could only enter the core region of Mountain Ruins. There were two entrances accessing to the inside of the core region of Mountain Ruins. One was not far away from the place where they entered just now; the other was on the second floor. It was dozens of times more difficult for people to enter the inside of the core region of Mountain Ruins through the entrance on the top than that at the bottom.

Both Zhang Tie and Force Emperor wanted to enter the core region of Mountain Ruins through the entrance on the top.

Zhang Tie flew towards the entrance on the top at a lightning speed. Those deities’ battle puppets rushed towards Zhang Tie from the sky by batches, at least dozens in total. However, Zhang Tie didn’t waste time on these deities’ battle puppets at all. He had already dodged away and left them far behind at a super high speed before these deities’ battle puppets approached him.

Force Emperor didn’t mean to waste time on these deities’ battle puppets either; instead, he also rushed towards the entrance on the top with Zhang Tie.

As a result, those deities’ battle puppets instantly blocked some supreme immortal generals who were following Zhang Tie and Force Emperor in the air.

Previously, those supreme immortal generals wanted to rush towards the entrance on the top after Zhang Tie and Force Emperor in case of greater loss. Pitifully, after Zhang Tie and Force Emperor adopted the same tactic to push forward rapidly, their plan was destroyed at once.

On the second floor of the core region of Mountain Ruins, there were 8 entrances in total, which were respectively on four sides, 2 on each side.

Only after a short while, Zhang Tie and Force Emperor had surpassed everyone else and flew into an entrance respectively. After flying thousands of miles inside, the two people completely separated from each other.

After avoiding some batches of deities’ battle puppets on the way, Zhang Tie finally came to an entrance accessing the inside of the core region of Mountain Ruins.

That entrance was a huge archway higher than 100 m. On both sides of the archway, there were two mighty huge statues of snake-human with overwhelming qi; each of them was higher than 100 m. It was an open square in front of the two statues.

360 deities’ battle puppets were standing over the square in a huge battle formation.

When Zhang Tie appeared, those deities’ battle puppet opened their bloody eyes at the same time as they all fixated onto Zhang Tie at once.

At this moment, Zhang Tie couldn’t avoid anymore.

“Go die…” Zhang Tie shouted with wide, furious eyes as he waved his black huge tower and rushed towards those deities’ battle puppets.

The 360 deities’ battle puppets surged towards Zhang Tie like a tide.

Bang… the first deities’ battle puppet was shattered…

Bang… the second deities’ battle puppet was shattered…

Bang… the third deities’ battle puppet was shattered…

With loud sonic booms, Zhang Tie entered the encirclement of those deities’ battle puppets like a fierce tiger rushing into a flock of sheep. Meanwhile, he hit those deities’ battle puppets one after another with his black huge tower in an overwhelming manner like landslide and tsunami.

At this moment, Zhang Tie had exerted his full strength; instead of hiding his real battle force anymore. When those deities’ battle puppets touched the black huge tower, they were broken into red raindrops spraying over the sky, which didn’t start to gather up until they were sent flying tens of thousands of meters away.

Zhang Tie kept waving his huge mallet as he triggered his protective battle qi, protective sword wind and pupil swordsmanship at the same time. As a result, the region within hundreds of meters absolutely became a terrifyingly, fatal region. While sustaining the attacks of those deities’ battle puppets, Zhang Tie broke through the encirclement of the 360 deities’ battle puppets as fast as possible in the fiercest and directest way like a red-hot sharp sword. Closely after that, he strode into the high archway. Almost at the same time, those deities’ battle puppets which were baring their fangs and waving their claws behind Zhang Tie suddenly paused…

An irresistible force inside the archway instantly drew Zhang Tie onto the ground from the air the moment he entered.

When Zhang Tie fell to the ground, he instantly knelt down on the ground as he felt weak.

Closely after that, Zhang Tie spurted out a mouthful of blood, which drew a bloody sector on the ground.

Face pale, Zhang Tie panted heavily. Meanwhile, he turned around and took a look at those deities’ battle puppets. At this moment, all the deities’ battle puppets which were besieging Zhang Tie hardly just now had already stopped their movements as if they couldn’t see Zhang Tie. They started to queue up on the square outside the archway again. Then, they all closed their scarlet eyes again as if nothing had happened just now…

It was the price that Zhang Tie had to pay for turning the greater part of the 360 deities’ battle puppets into a bloody rain over the sky. After being besieged by 360 deities’ battle puppets, Zhang Tie would never be safe and sound no matter how powerful he was.

Actually, it was the solution with the least price that Zhang Tie could work out. At this moment, the deities’ battle puppet which was broken into pieces by him first had just recovered. It didn’t have a chance to join the battle for the second time; instead, it returned to the battle formation outside the archway. If Zhang Tie stayed in the square for a few more seconds, he might have suffered a greater loss…
