The protagonist is obviously strong but very cautious

After understanding the whole story, Buddha Zheng Tuo immediately took action.

He was the first to withdraw his Buddhist light and, with all his might, rushed toward the location of the Nine-Aperture Stone Man.

however.

The battle between the two sides was too fierce and domineering. As soon as Buddha Zheng Tuo rushed over, he was bounced back by the powerful shockwave.

He tried several times but failed.

In the end, Lei Di Zheng Tuo made his move.

He unleashed a continuous barrage of luminous runes to suppress the Nine-Aperture Stone Man.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, Buddha Zheng Tuo immediately rushed to the Nine-Aperture Stone Man.

Without any hesitation, Buddha Zheng Tuo turned over and arrived at the left ear of the Nine-Aperture Stone Man.

He wanted to enter the body of the nine-aperture stone man through his left ear.

however.

The nine-aperture stone man instinctively attacked, attempting to knock the Buddha Zheng Tuo away.

"No, we only have one chance, we absolutely can't miss it."

Buddha Zheng Tuo was instantly surrounded by three beams of light.

The three rays of light are respectively the Buddha's Dao Pattern, the Righteousness Dao Pattern, and the Light Dao Pattern.

All three types of Dao patterns have a tremendous destructive power against resentment.

The three beams of light merged into one, instantly pausing the nine-aperture stone man.

Take this opportunity!

Buddha Zheng Tuo lunged forward and entered the body of the nine-aperture stone man through his left ear.

Become!

Upon seeing this, Emperor Lei Zheng Tuo was overjoyed.

Whether the Nine-Aperture Stone Man can be successfully suppressed next depends entirely on the methods of Buddha Zheng Tuo.

Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
The great battle between the Thunder Emperor and the Nine-Aperture Stone Man continued, with both sides fighting fiercely back and forth.

Simultaneously.

Inside the Nine-Aperture Stone Man, Buddha Zheng Tuo, surrounded by three kinds of light, appeared in a pitch-black void.

Here he was the only source of light; it was pitch black all around, with no light whatsoever.

It felt like being in a dark void, the silence around me almost unbearable.

"Light it up!"

Buddha Zheng Tuo extended a finger, condensing a ball of three-colored divine sun.

The three-colored divine sun was initially only the size of a fist, but now it has transformed into something as enormous as a star.

The three-colored divine sun illuminated the space around Buddha Zheng Tuo.

Upon closer inspection, the surrounding space was empty; there was nothing there.

really.

What he sees at this moment is the same as what he perceives.

This place is like a dark void, seemingly without end, which truly inspires a sense of despair.

No, I need to find the source of the resentment as soon as possible; I can't delay any longer.

Buddha Zheng Tuo immediately extended his divine sense and began to search the surroundings, trying to find the source of the resentment.

however.

His search, however, fell into a peculiar state.

Because this place is so big, it's bigger than you can imagine.

The space here is probably so vast that it is comparable in size to the primordial immortal realm.

Buddha Zheng Tuo was among them, as insignificant as an ant. To find the place where resentment gathered in such a vast space was like finding a needle in a haystack.

no way.

He could only continue searching desperately.

Just now.

hum!
He sensed a familiar fluctuation.

"This is?"

He was overjoyed and flew towards the familiar fluctuations.

Soon, he saw a huge black star appear in front of him.

The star was enormous, like a giant ball of flesh, writhing, which made Buddha Zheng Tuo frown.

The fluctuation just now came from this ball of flesh.

Simultaneously.

He knew that this was the place where the resentment he was looking for had gathered.

hum!
The same wave that had guided him here appeared again.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the soul fluctuations of the Puppet God.

"God of Puppets, where are you?"

Buddha Zheng Tuo stared at the ball of flesh before him, emanating a divine soul fluctuation.

"Save me! Save me!"

The divine soul fluctuations of the Puppet God emanated from the fleshy ball.

"You're still alive!"

Buddha Zheng Tuo was greatly surprised!
"Save me! Save me!"

The Puppet God is clearly in a very bad state right now, only able to send out such life-saving fluctuations intermittently.

Seeing this, Buddha Zheng Tuo did not rush to make a move.

He raised his hand and waved.

brush!
The god-slayer Zheng Tuo appeared beside him.

That's right.

The god-slayer Zheng Tuo always hid in the black coffin used by the Buddha Zheng Tuo.

It was a last resort, so it never showed itself before.

Now, the god-slayer Zheng Tuo has descended and begun to take charge of the overall situation.

He was the first to observe the condition of the fleshy ball.

After learning more about it, he couldn't help but show his reluctance.

This ball of flesh, the size of a star, was formed from resentment; touching it could potentially cause enormous trouble.

With his current combat strength at the first level of the Breakthrough Realm, he will likely suffer a severe blow.

But now that we're here, we can't just sit idly by.

If the Nine-Aperture Stone Man were to defeat the Thunder Emperor, he would surely set foot in the Primordial Immortal Realm.

Because he received the inheritance from the four great gods of the four heavenly spirits, he has a responsibility to protect the original immortal realm.

Thinking about this...

He raised his hand and waved, and the Five Elements Divine Lord Immortal Slaying Diagram appeared, immediately enveloping the resentful stars.

Not enough, far from enough.

Buddha Zheng Tuo used all his power to condense enormous tri-colored stars.

The moment the three-colored stars appeared, the resentful stars immediately began to writhe wildly.

From afar, thousands upon thousands of octopus-like tentacles appeared on the resentful star.

These tentacles relentlessly attacked the surrounding three-colored divine suns, attempting to shatter them all.

Obviously.

The Three-Colored Divine Sun has immense destructive power against resentful stars.

Seeing that it was effective, Zheng Tuo, the Godslayer, immediately activated the Five Elements Gods' Immortal-Slaying Diagram.

hum!
The five great gods thus coalesced and launched a frenzied attack on the resentful star.

From a distance.

Azure Dragon God, Vermilion Bird God, Black Tortoise God, White Tiger God, Celestial Whale of the Milky Way.

The five great gods descended like true deities, unleashing tremendous power and even personally tearing, grabbing, and pulling at the resentful star, attempting to completely annihilate it.

Faced with such an attack, Dao patterns surged on the octopus tentacles of the resentful star.

Upon closer inspection, the power of that rune was extremely strong.

With such powerful Dao patterns, the five great gods were no match for them and were quickly defeated, reverting to their original forms and reverting to the shape of immortal swords.

Not only that.

On the resentful star, giant octopus tentacles began to attack the Five Elements God Venerable Immortal Slaying Diagram.

The Five Elements Gods' Immortal-Slaying Diagram was buzzing loudly as it was struck, and it was destroyed in just a few rounds.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Tuo, the Godslayer, immediately took action.

brush!
A temple radiating endless light descended.

The Temple of Light, the very temple that once imprisoned him, has now been refined and made for his own use. Because the Light God Clan has a bad reputation in the Primordial Immortal Realm, he has never used it.

Now, here he had no scruples and directly took out the Temple of Light.

hum!
As soon as the Temple of Light appeared, countless luminous Dao patterns descended and landed on the Five Elements God Venerable Immortal Slaying Diagram, stabilizing it and preventing it from being destroyed.

"A cage of light!"

Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, makes his move.

Instantly.

The Temple of Light descended, transforming into a cage of light that imprisoned the resentful stars within.

Countless luminous runes descended, attacking the resentful stars.

The resentful stars kept emitting smoke, and each wisp of resentment was being purified.

"Waaaaah..."

A tremendous wail echoed from the resentful stars.

The voice possessed a powerful magic, attempting to influence Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, and make him stop his actions.

Unfortunately, Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, had foreseen this.

Now he stands with Buddha Zheng Tuo in the Temple of Light.

The Temple of Light is the natal magic weapon of the God of Light, a ninth-tier magic weapon, also known as a semi-immortal artifact, and is on the same level as the Temple of Darkness.

Although the resentful star formed by the Nine-Aperture Stone Man was very powerful and possessed the Daoist power of the Nine-Aperture Stone Man, it was still unable to target Zheng Tuo, the Godslayer, who was standing in the Temple of Light.

"Chains of Light!"

A thought struck Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer.

Splash!
Splash!
Splash!
Countless enormous chains of light, formed from runes of light, appeared within the Temple of Light.

Brush brush!
Brush brush!
Brush brush!
Countless enormous chains of light rushed toward the resentful star.

The octopus tentacles on the resentful star fought back fiercely, but the moment they touched the chains of light, they were instantly vaporized by the powerful light runes.

The Light Dao Pattern is specifically designed to counter all kinds of evil forces.

The Star of Resentment is formed by the condensation of immense resentment, and the Dao Patterns of Light are utterly effective against this kind of resentment.

Moreover.

The current application of the Light Runes is primarily based on the Light Temple.

The power of the semi-immortal artifact, the Temple of Light, is definitely at the strongest level of the Light Dao Pattern.

Under these circumstances, all the chains of light rushed toward the resentful stars.

In just a few breaths.

The resentful stars were now completely and firmly bound by the chains of light.

From afar, the stars that once exuded resentment were now completely enveloped by chains of light.

hum!
The luminous runes on the Chains of Light flickered with bursts of light and began to shrink frantically, attempting to purify all the resentment on the Star of Resentment.

"Waaaaah!"

A mournful wail echoed continuously from the resentful star, like a child crying.

The mournful cries grew louder and louder, filling the entire vast space with their echoes.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Tuo, the Godslayer, showed no pity whatsoever.

He continued to exert all his strength to tighten the chains of light, attempting to purify all the resentment on the resentful star as soon as possible.

From a distance.

The resentful stars shrank continuously under the suppression of the chains of light.

If this trend continues, the resentful stars will eventually be completely purified.

As if knowing that they would be completely purified, the resentful stars immediately put up a fight.

Zheng Tuo was taken aback by their resistance.

Bang!
The resentful star instantly self-destructed.

In an instant!
Countless wronged souls flew out from the resentful stars and immediately rushed to every corner of this space.

"Humph!"

Zheng Tuo had anticipated this.

With a thought, he activated the Five Elements Divine Venerable Immortal Slaying Diagram, instantly turning the place into a cage, blocking all the vengeful spirits from escaping.

"kill!"

A thought struck him.

The five immortal swords in his hands transformed into five great gods.

Five great gods descended and immediately took action, battling against the countless vengeful spirits.

however.

There are too many vengeful spirits, densely packed and countless.

Under the onslaught of so many vengeful spirits, even the five great gods seemed unable to withstand it.

Look closely.

These vengeful spirits all possessed powerful Daoist patterns resembling nine orifices of stone figures.

The power of that Dao pattern was extremely strong, which made these vengeful spirits extremely powerful. Each of them had probably reached the level of a second-level Breaker.

No, if this battle continues, the five great gods will surely die.

Buddha Zheng Tuo intervened, continuously unleashing Buddhist light to help slay the vengeful spirits in the area.

Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, then took action, activating the Temple of Light.

Instantly.

Countless luminous runes descended, landing on the bodies of the five great gods, helping them don armor of light.

With the help of the Armor of Light, the five great gods were like tigers among sheep; the surrounding vengeful spirits could not harm them or even get close to them.

The five great gods unleashed their massive forms, frantically slaughtering the surrounding vengeful spirits.

Watching the vengeful spirits being slain one by one, Godslayer Zheng Tuo dared not relax his vigilance in the slightest.

He stared intently at everything on the battlefield.

The five great gods joined forces with Buddha Zheng Tuo to slay the vengeful spirits. One by one, the vengeful spirits were killed here, and their numbers began to decrease rapidly.

Just now.

A vengeful spirit suddenly spoke.

"Help me! Help me! Help me!"

The puppet god was filled with resentment and appeared to have been half assimilated by vengeful spirits.

He was calling for help, hoping that Zheng Tuo could save him.

Looking at the puppet god at this moment, Godslayer Zheng Tuo hesitated.

The Puppet God had clearly seen everything, knowing that he possessed the Temple of Light and that he controlled the Dao of Light.

In this situation, is it really necessary to save it?

Without a moment's hesitation, Godslayer Zheng Tuo acted directly, saving the Puppet God. At the same time, he left a mark on the Puppet God's soul, turning it into his servant.

In this way, he only needs a single thought to kill the God of Puppets.

The Puppet God felt only gratitude and expressed his willingness to follow the Godslayer Zheng Tuo.

In the eyes of the Puppet God, he had already given up hope before this, when he was completely assimilated by the vengeful spirits.

But at this moment, I feel grateful for being saved.

Becoming someone else's servant in order to survive is no big deal.

For Zheng Tuo, the god-slayer, there was a very important reason why he rescued the puppet god: he wanted to know where the Nine-Aperture Stone Man came from.

Only the God of Puppets knows where the Nine-Aperture Stone Man came from.

The Nine-Aperture Stone Man, who did not belong to the original immortal realm, must be hiding some great secrets.

If he could use this to find the location of another immortal realm, it might be of great use to him.

Furthermore.

The God of Puppets once followed the Dark Emperor.

By recruiting him, he could gain a better understanding of the Dark Emperor and even discover the location of the Dark Emperor's lair, which was of great importance to him.

At last.

The God of Puppets has a very profound understanding of puppetry.

Bringing them under our control and utilizing their puppetry skills to gather intelligence would be a great help to the entire Celestial Court.

This not only reduces casualties during intelligence gathering by the Celestial Court, but also improves the efficiency of intelligence gathering.

Know thyself, ever-victorious.

If we can obtain accurate intelligence in advance, the Celestial Court will surely be invincible.

Many factors led him to accept the God of Puppets.

On the other hand, the god of puppets was grateful to have been saved.

Now that he has become a servant under the God-Slayer Zheng Tuo, he should do his best to serve him.

He immediately spoke up, informing Zheng Tuo, the Godslayer, of the secret of the Nine-Aperture Stone Man. (End of Chapter)
