The patriarchs of the Gu Family didn't look well either. The Gu Family had gone to the Cloud Prowess Empire. If Lu Li died, how could the Gu Family live a good life?
Hu Lang was scared out of his wits. He didn't go to Lu Li's rescue. Instead, he smashed at the Walking Puppet with his axe, smashing away the Walking Puppet that was about to kill Lu Li.
"I am okay …"
Lu Li stood up after rolling on the ground. His robe was torn and a piece of flesh on his left shoulder was cut off. Blood was still coming out of his mouth but he was not seriously injured.
He was wearing a soft armor of the Holy Grade. The fact that he spat out blood was because his internal organs were hurt by the force.
"This Walking Puppet is strange!"
He stood up, wiped the blood off his mouth, took out a pellet and swallowed it. He was confused.
Wei Yuan said that the Walking Puppet had a soul. There was a remnant soul of a powerful Xuan Beast sealed inside. Judging from the intelligence the Walking Puppet showed, Lu Li believed that it did have a soul.
However, he didn't find any soul in the brain of the Walking Puppet when he sent in the horrifying vibration waves.
The brain of the Walking Puppet was made of strange metal. It was an iron brain without a soul.
"Is the soul hiding somewhere else?"
Lu Li's eyes glowed. He looked at the turtle shell on the back of the Walking Puppet. After some thoughts, he said to Hu Lang, "Hu Lang, we will work together. After I attack, you smash the Walking Puppet away."
Hu Lang checked with psychic power. He nodded after making sure that Lu Li was okay.
Wei Yuan and the others wanted to say something but Lu Li flew up again and generated dozens of clones.
"Whoosh ~"
The divine weapon of Dragon King pierced through the sky and smashed at the turtle shell on the back of the Walking Puppet.
Lu Li followed the vibration waves of strength and soul with his psychic power, trying to sense if there was something like a soul inside.
"There is!"
Lu Li thought of something. His vibration waves swept across like ripples and he sensed something strange.
"Boom!"
At once, he controlled the vibration waves of strength to attack the strange thing and then the soul vibration waves went in to attack the strange energy.
"Boom ~"
As soon as Lu Li finished his attack, Hu Lang smashed the Walking Puppet away with one swing of his axe.
Lu Li looked over at once. Everyone was staring at the Walking Puppet.
"Alright!"
Seeing the puppet beast lying motionless on the ground like a pile of scrap metal, everyone's eyes lit up. Wei Yuan shouted excitedly.
Lu Li and Hu Lang checked with psychic power. Lu Li controlled several clones to check. They were relieved to make sure that the Walking Puppets were motionless.
"Young Master Li, you're amazing!"
Hu Lang gave Lu Li a thumbs up. He had already confirmed that he wouldn't be able to destroy the Walking Puppets with his attack power, but Lu Li could do it so easily.
"Hum ~"
Lu Li flew over and put the Walking Puppets into his Interspatial Ring. They were his trophies.
He looked at the golem beast at the exit and nodded to Hu Lang. "Destroy that one as well."
"Whoosh ~"
Lu Li and Hu Lang flew over. Hu Lang distracted the Walking Puppet while Lu Li launched sneak attacks. After one round of attacks, the beast soul inside the Walking Puppet was shattered.
Since the beast soul inside had been shattered, the puppet beast naturally couldn't move.
Without the control of the beast soul, it was a dead object. How could it move on its own?
"Young Master Lu, you are awesome!"
Wei Yuan walked over in excitement. The others came over and thanked him with gratitude. If Lu Li and Hu Lang didn't come in, there would be less than five of them that could have escaped.
"You guys go out now. We will go and check the inner hall."
Now that they were here, Lu Li would not leave so easily.
Wei Yuan said that they could split the treasures. He was not a saint and this was the tomb of a powerful warrior from ancient times.
On the east wall, there was a dark gate. The group left quickly, leaving only Hu Lang, Lu Li, Wei Yuan and three other Noble Lord Realm warriors. Hu Lang chopped at the gate with his axe.
"Bang ~"
The gate let out a muffled sound. There was a black glow on the gate with some ancient characters glistening.
There must be some powerful Inhibition Formations in the gate. It would be hard to break it open with brute force.
Just now, with the Walking Puppets chasing after them, nobody thought of going into the inner hall. Now, they were all using psychic power to look for the mechanism.
"Found it. We are lucky. I have seen this formation before!"
In the time for one incense stick to burn, Hu Lang's eyes glowed. He stared at the pattern on the gate and grinned. He poured out Xuan Energy to attack at the beast carvings on the gate.
Wei Yuan and the others could not understand it and neither could Lu Li. Hu Lang stopped after he poured out 27 strands of Xuan Energy. After a while, the gate opened up quietly.
Everyone was overjoyed. The two warriors behind Wei Yuan wanted to rush in out of instinct but were stopped by Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan said with a smile, "How about … Lord Hu and Young Master Lu go in and have a look first?
We can come back later. "
Lu Li and Hu Lang looked at each other, thinking that Wei Yuan was a smart guy.
It was clear that Wei Yuan wanted them to go in. Lu Li and Hu Lang could take the good stuff first and they could divide it later.
The two warriors behind Wei Yuan pouted, not happy with Wei Yuan's decision.
Lu Li, on the other hand, wouldn't take advantage of them. He shrugged and said, "Let's go in together. You stay behind us."
Even though there was no sign of life or danger, they were still cautious. Lu Li sent several clones in to have a look first while Hu Lang used psychic power to check the surroundings.
As soon as they stepped into the inner hall, they were cheered up. It was a small room with a golden coffin in the middle. In front of the coffin was a table with three ancient Interspatial Rings on it!
Apart from these, there was nothing else inside. All the treasures must be in the three Interspatial Rings.
The two warriors of the Wei Family were filled with greed. As far as they were concerned, since the land around here belonged to the Island of Tranquility, the treasures should belong to the Wei Family.
Wei Yuan didn't move. He said with a smile, "Young Master Lu, do you want to see what is in the three rings?"
Lu Li didn't refuse. He walked over with Hu Lang and each picked up an Interspatial Ring to check with psychic power.
"Secret skill?"
In the Interspatial Ring Lu Li picked up was an ancient animal skin scroll with dense ancient characters written on it.
Lu Li focused his psychic power on the ancient characters. Soon, his soul trembled violently. At the top of the scroll was — Method of Making Walking Puppets.
Lu Li had just experienced the power of Walking Puppets. Without his Soul Shattering Skill, not even Human Sovereign Realm warriors could destroy them.
Lu Li was excited but he pretended to be calm. Hu Lang put down the Interspatial Ring and said, "There is a beast claw here?
It seems to be the claw of a Beast King. "
Wei Yuan and the others came over. Hu Lang even gave the Interspatial Ring to Wei Yuan. Hu Lang picked up the other ring. Soon, his eyes glowed as he said, "There are many treasures here. Holy Grade Xuan Artifact, Mystical Materials, pellets. Well … there should be more than one billion Purple Xuan Crystals in here."
"More than one billion?"
