"Boom!"
With the thunderous explosion, the sword light fiercely struck the spiritual power shield, bursting out with a dazzling intensity. The sand and stones within miles were lifted into the air by this impact, forming a sky-covering dust mist.
The chaotic winds were whipped by this force, emitting sharp howling sounds.
...
In the distant horizon, a cultivator at the early stage of Golden Core was driving his escape light, racing towards Ancient Sand City like the wind.
Suddenly, a overwhelmingly strong aura surged towards him like raging waves, making him feel an unprecedented sense of oppression.
"Is this the battle of Nascent Soul cultivators?"
He showed a frightened expression, instinctively turning towards the source of the aura.
There, the light shone brightly, spiritual power overflowed, and various powerful forces collided, emanating a might that definitely surpassed the Golden Core level.
His eyes were filled with fear, his heart pounding violently, as if it would leap out of his throat.
Without ti to think deeply, survival instincts imdiately drove him to control his escape light, fleeing frantically away from the battlefield.
The combatants at this mont, even if not Nascent Soul cultivators, are likely top-tier cultivators at Golden Core Perfection.
His re early Golden Core cultivation is far from being able to resist them.
Even the aftermath of their battle could injure him.
...
anwhile, at the center of the battlefield.
After the intense confrontation, the light gradually dissipated, and the all-encompassing dust mist slowly settled.
The spiritual power shield remained intact in Xu Ping’s view, emitting a gentle glow, silently showcasing its imnsely strong defensive power.
"This defensive power is truly strong!"
Seeing this, Xu Ping couldn’t help but secretly click his tongue, his heart amazed to the extre by the puppet army’s defensive power.
He wondered if unleashing the full power of his sword array could break through its defense.
Probably very difficult!
Without needing deep thought, Xu Ping knew the answer.
Moreover, this is rely the defensive power shown by the puppet army; its offensive might has not yet been fully displayed.
With this thought, Xu Ping’s desire for the puppet army grew even stronger.
"Gu Yuntao indeed lives up to his reputation, such impressive skills!"
Xu Ping suppressed his emotions, his face returning to calm, and he respectfully clasped his hands to Gu Yuntao.
Gu Yuntao heard this and laughed heartily, waving his sleeve boldly, he said:
"Hahaha, fellow Daoist is not lacking either. Such a superb sword array, in all of Wind Country, there are truly few who can match your skills."
He already knew that the other party had terminated the Spirit Contract with Purple Mountain Association.
It was because of this he understood why the other party expressed willingness to help as long as he had the courage to resist Seed Puppet Sect.
"Well then, my strength, does it et your requirents, City Lord?"
Xu Ping nodded slightly, then with a thought, he swiftly collected all his puppets and sword array, his actions clean and swift.
"Naturally."
Gu Yuntao nodded, then smiled as he issued an invitation, "Would you, fellow Daoist, join in visiting Ancient Sand City? I could offer you so hospitality."
"I will also, in detail, introduce to you the channels selling third-rank Upper Grade puppet materials."
After so hesitation, Xu Ping nodded in agreent.
On the one hand, considering the current situation, the likelihood of Gu Yuntao acting against him is very low; on the other hand, his own strength gives him enough confidence.
...
...
Half an hour later.
In the top-floor guest room of the towering pagoda in Ancient Sand City, the decor was elegant and luxurious.
Gu Yuntao and Xu Ping sat opposite each other, with exquisite tea utensils placed on the table, steaming spirit tea emitting an enticing aroma.
"Fellow Daoist, I see that the several third-rank middle grade puppets you have are quite unique, it seems you have deep skills in puppetry!"
Gu Yuntao lightly sipped the spirit tea, his eyes carrying so curiosity as he looked towards Xu Ping and asked.
"Just so basic techniques, not worth ntioning." Xu Ping waved his hand and casually replied.
’Divine Puppet Spirit-Enhancing Talisman’ surely cannot be easily disclosed.
After all, he had plans in his mind to use this talisman as a condition to try exchanging it for Gu Yuntao’s high-powered puppet army in the future.
Gu Yuntao, upon hearing this, did not inquire further.
He naturally understood this was Xu Ping’s evasive remark.
In his view, although they were rely third-rank middle grade puppets, even if sowhat special, not particularly indispensable, lacking significant value worth deep exploration.
After a few casual exchanges, Xu Ping inquired about the channels for third-rank Upper Grade puppet materials:
"City Lord, may I ask where exactly the channel for obtaining third-rank Upper Grade puppet materials you ntioned is?"
Gu Yuntao smiled gently, calmly stating, "Fellow Daoist should know, Wind Country borders Great Xia Country."
He raised his teacup, gently jiggling it, watching the ripples form circles in the spirit tea.
"I have indeed heard of this." Xu Ping nodded.
"Great Xia Country is a powerful large nation, its national strength much stronger than our Wind Country, and the entire nation is ruled by the Tu clan royalty, with stable governance and imnse power."
Gu Yuntao set down the teacup, his expression becoming slightly more solemn as he continued,
"Within this Great Xia Country, there exists an extrely famous Nascent Soul power known as Valley of Ten Thousand Demons."
"This Valley of Ten Thousand Demons is renowned for specifically cultivating various rare spiritual beasts."
"The fourth-rank transformation-stage spiritual beasts fostered in the valley are not rely one or two."
"These transformation-stage spiritual beasts are not only imnsely powerful, but each possesses divine techniques, greatly enhancing the reputation of Valley of Ten Thousand Demons."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ping sat upright, showing keen interest.
