Practice begins with immortality

Chapter 221 Puppet: Bone Beast

With a creepy creaking sound, a huge portal made of pale bones and exuding a gloomy atmosphere slowly emerged.

The black-robed figure flashed and stood before the white bone portal, looking up to the sky and letting out a wild laugh: "Hahahahahahaha... I never dreamed that an ordinary sect disciple like me would have the opportunity to step into this legendary sword path!"

His laughter echoed in the air, threatening to shatter the very space. Then, a flicker of greed and excitement flashed in his eyes, and he muttered to himself, "As long as I can successfully pass through this Blade Path, I can reach the mysterious land of swords and swords, and collect the powerful life weapons left behind by the sect's predecessors, thereby further enhancing the life weapon in my hands!"

Having said that, he unconsciously clenched his fists, and a powerful aura emanated from his body.

"Moreover, with my current high level of cultivation that has reached the perfection of the Refining Void Realm, I might even be able to conquer the entire Mountain of Swords and Trees of Swords in one fell swoop! You know, that is one of the most top-notch acquired spiritual treasures!" He became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he had already seen the scene of himself becoming a powerful combined being and dominating a region.

However, just as he was immersed in his endless reverie about a bright future, suddenly, a cold and mocking voice sounded in his ears like a ghost: "It seems that you are planning something great in your mind."

"Who?" The man in black robe was startled by the sudden voice. He turned around abruptly and looked around like lightning.

At the same time, a puppet that had been motionless behind him suddenly burst into astonishing speed, transforming into a dark shadow and dashing straight in a certain direction. The man in black robes took advantage of this gap and entered the bone portal without hesitation.

"No matter who you are or how you got in, I don't want to waste time with you right now. Let me, a puppet that's comparable to the late stage of the Void Refining Realm, play with you."

Before he finished speaking, the black-robed man had disappeared without a trace, and the bone portal was also crumbling.

The person who came was naturally Wang Bai. At this time, he was fighting with the puppet in the late stage of Lianxu.

After five rounds, Wang Bo successfully captured the puppet and removed the core that powered it.

"This puppet is really a good thing. There are many materials that I have never seen before. Fortunately, I suppressed the power and didn't damage it, otherwise it would be difficult to repair it later."

"However, this thing has the ability to self-repair like the Phaseless Battle Armor."

Looking at this puppet, Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh that the person who created it and the energy core that drives it is truly a genius!

You must know that all cultivators, especially high-ranking ones, believe that great power belongs to themselves. Of the hundred arts of cultivating immortality, only the four arts of alchemy, formations, talismans, and weapons meet their requirements.

Puppets are originally a minor art and are not popular among high-level cultivators. Only in Yaoxinghai, where the current development status is similar to that in science fiction, there are puppets comparable to those of the God Transformation Realm, but they are extremely rare.

What's more, as far as Wang Bai knows, Yaoxinghai doesn't even have the manufacturing technology for a puppet in the late stage of the Refining Void Realm, but even if it did, it wouldn't be able to make it.

Because it's not worth it.

A puppet comparable to that of a cultivator at the Void Refining stage must be made of extremely high-quality materials and requires a master who has mastered this art.

Besides, what about the energy source that can drive it to fight after it is built? What if it is damaged?

If a monk loses mana or is injured, they can recover on their own or with some magical elixir. So how do you use puppets? Can they be made of self-repairing materials? Wouldn't it be a good idea to use them to make armor or something?

With these resources and time, if we use them to build warships or something, wouldn't the end result be to easily kill a bunch of refining masters?

So it would be a huge loss to make this thing. If anyone from any force dares to propose this, others will think that this person must have been bribed by the hostile forces.

Of course, unless there is a ready-made one. And at this moment, there is one in front of Wang Bai.

Not only that, the technology for manufacturing the driving core is quite advanced, and it has the ability to absorb the spiritual power between heaven and earth and store it.

This technology can be said to be a method of artificially creating super spirit stones. It can only be said that the man in black robe does not know the value of it, or that he thinks Wang Bai has no ability to defeat this puppet.

In short, this thing finally benefited Wang Bai.

As Wang Bai removed the soul mark on the puppet, the puppet turned into a silver-white ball the size of a person.

After Wang Bai accepted it, he began to look for a way to enter the so-called Sword and Weapon Path.

"The Blade Path is clearly in another world, and it's inaccessible using the Five Elements Escape Technique."

"Looks like we have to start with this bone altar."

...............

On the other side, when Wang Bai erased the brand on the puppet, the man in black robe also felt it.

In the midst of the swordplay, the black-robed man said angrily, "Damn it! I went through so much trouble to get this puppet! That guy must have been hiding his true strength!"

After a while, he calmed down and said, "Forget it, let's let him go for a few days."

"After I pass the Sword Path and collect the benefits from the Sword Mountain and Sword Tree, I will kill him and take back the puppet!"

Then, he calmed down and continued walking on the bitterly cold Sword and Weapon Path.

The Sword Path lives up to its name, with various weapons stuck everywhere, and the road exudes a metallic texture.

In addition, there is a strong wind with the energy of Gengjin and the breath of Bingsha blowing, which can dissolve the body and soul. It can be said to be extremely dangerous.

…………

On the other side, Wang Bai also found a way to enter the mysterious Sword and Weapon Path.

"If you want to enter the path of swords and weapons, you must go through the gate of bones."

Wang Bai stared at the scene in front of him, thinking to himself: "It seems that in order to open this legendary White Bone Gate, I must use a sufficient number of spirit bones to offer sacrifices to this gloomy and terrifying white bone altar." At this moment, his gaze involuntarily turned to the vast bone forest around him.

"Well, the bones in this bone forest can just serve as the spiritual bones I need." Thinking of this, Wang Bai took a step without hesitation and walked quickly towards the bone forest.

As soon as he entered the bone forest, the smell of decay and death hit him. However, Wang Bai was not intimidated by this creepy atmosphere. Instead, he gripped the sword tightly in his hand and prepared to start chopping at those ordinary-looking yet eerie bones.

However, just as he raised his sword and swung it hard at a bone, an astonishing scene happened!

The ground suddenly shook violently, and accompanied by a dull roar, a huge beast with a body made entirely of pale bones suddenly broke out from the ground!
