Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

In Yu Tianhua's eyes, this group of puppets had a clear division of labor: there were puppets providing support from afar with arrows, puppets with shields constantly monitoring the situation and raising their shields to block injuries, puppets attacking from the front, and even, ridiculously, puppets with ghostly figures.

The battle ended quickly. The puppet army that had stormed into the fray beat the sword-and-spear puppet to death, and then several puppets leisurely carried it away.

This left Yu Tianhua completely bewildered. "Does this mean I'm saved?"

"Hmm? So there's someone here." A gentle male voice came from behind.

Yu Tianhua turned around and saw a handsome man in a white robe strolling leisurely on the Imperial Road. Behind the man, the puppet that had just fought him was quietly following, as was the sword and spear puppet that had just fought him.

Yu Tianhua swallowed involuntarily, then clasped his hands respectfully and said, "Chief Su."

Su Liang nodded in response.

He sent the puppets out, providing them with a continuous supply of spiritual energy, and let them 'hunt' on their own.

He himself walked slowly across the starry sky, honing his divine emperor body. At this moment, the pressure of the emperor on his body was fifty times that of others. He did not recall the puppet, but along the way he knew that there was a great reason why he could recall the puppet.

Looking at Su Liang's calm expression and the puppet army following behind him, Yu Tianhua couldn't help but ask curiously:

"How did Chief Su subdue these puppets? It's okay if you don't want to say."

Su Liang explained generously, "We can use spiritual energy. We just need to continuously supply these puppets with enough spiritual energy for them to operate."

Su Liang did not lie; he simply concealed the most important reincarnation seal.

This one sentence was enough to make Yu Tianhua give up. Traveling on this imperial road had already made his spiritual energy very limited, let alone using spiritual power to control puppets.

Looking at Su Liang, who remained calm and composed, moving freely on the Imperial Road and controlling an army of puppets, Yu Tianhua was secretly amazed.

It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. He had struggled with immense effort all the way here, while Su Liang seemed to have it all easy. This extinguished the last vestige of competitive spirit in Yu Tianhua's heart.

To be born in the same era as Su Liang is truly a dark chapter in the lives of the geniuses of this time!

Have you seen any powerful puppets nearby?

Su Liang asked casually, not paying much attention. He had asked many times along the way, but had not gotten any results. But this time, he was pleasantly surprised.

Yu Tianhua thought for a moment and said, "About eight kilometers southeast of here, I sensed a powerful puppet there, but I didn't dare to go forward to investigate. I don't know the specifics."

Looking at the eyes

With his eyes shining, Su Liang turned around without hesitation and followed the receding figure to the southeast. Yu Tianhua, unaware of what he was thinking, clicked his tongue in amazement.

Not long after traveling southeast, Su Liang also sensed a powerful aura in the distance, like a murderous aura or a fierce aura, as if an ancient ferocious beast was lying in wait.

Nearby, there was also a group of young prodigies who watched in astonishment as Su Liang led a group of puppets toward the direction of the aura's owner, a direction they desperately wanted to avoid.

They glanced at each other, then lowered their heads in dejection and continued to grit their teeth and move forward.

Soon, Su Liang arrived within a few hundred meters of the aura's owner. From a distance, the owner of this fierce aura appeared no different from the other puppets, and held no weapon. He simply stood there silently.

After observing for a while with narrowed eyes, Su Liang sent the puppet in his hand into battle.

The first to launch the attack was the archer puppet, which wielded a white-feathered bow and fired dozens of arrows in rapid succession.

When the arrows were aimed at the ferocious beast puppet within tens of meters, it moved.

His figure vanished like lightning, reappearing above the bow and arrow puppet's head. He delivered a straight punch, and the puppet didn't even have time to react before being blasted to pieces, losing most of its body and its ability to fight.

Su Liang wasn't disappointed. These puppets all had automatic repair capabilities. Unless you smashed them to dust, they could slowly recover as long as you had enough spiritual energy.

The second puppet to appear was the sword and spear puppet that had completely overwhelmed Yu Tianhua in the battle. Its sword was like a falling sun and its spear like a shooting star, and it charged towards the ferocious beast puppet with sword and spear clashing.

This move was the very killing move that Yu Tianhua used to deal with it. Now, it was being used again by the sword and spear puppet. Although the sword and spear puppet was a notch below in terms of completeness, it was much more powerful than Yu Tianhua's move because of its cultivation level and the fact that it had at least a high-grade treasured spear and sword.

Faced with the sword and spear puppet's sharp killing moves, the ferocious beast puppet suddenly trembled, and a fierce aura spread across the sky, as if a slumbering ancient beast had awakened.

It grasped the magic sword of the Broken Sword Puppet, then picked up the treasured spear and hurled it directly to the ground. With a loud "boom," the sword-spear puppet and the bow-and-arrow puppet fell into the same trap.

The ferocious beast puppet was unstoppable, crushing several other puppets in succession. No puppet could last more than a few moves against it, and the gap between the two sides was unbelievably large.

The ferocious beast puppet turned menacingly towards Su Liang, its intentions clear at a glance.

"Is its spirituality higher than other puppets? Its cultivation level should be at the sixth level of the Heavenly King realm, and its physical strength is around the eighth level. Every move it makes is done with brute force."

But this strength truly crushes the other puppets. I've only ever seen this ferocious aura when demons use their beast transformation. After using beast transformation, their physical attributes are greatly enhanced. So, what kind of demon are you imitating?

The youngest son of an ancient emperor? A young ancient emperor? I'm very interested! Are you prepared to lose?!

Chapter 944 Crazy Hunt

On the Milky Way, two figures were rapidly exchanging blows, engaging in the most primitive and savage form of combat, fist to fist, foot to foot, one blow after another.

Sparks kept flying from the squeaking beast puppet, which was covered in countless large and small craters. It would get injured every time it clashed with Su Liang.

"Bang!" The two objects collided, and Su Liang's figure remained motionless above the starry river.

Meanwhile, the ferocious beast puppet on the opposite side retreated several meters, flipped its body in mid-air to stabilize itself, and slightly bent its left arm. With a single punch, it suffered a great loss.

Su Liang looked at the ferocious beast puppet opposite him, somewhat surprised, as he had not used his full strength.

It's astonishing that this ferocious beast puppet could actually 'fight' against a divine emperor whose body was suppressed by the Great Emperor.

As if enraged, the ferocious beast puppet's aura surged, and its violent and malevolent energy rose once again, turning the area within several miles into an ancient battlefield.

The ferocious beast puppet lay prone on all fours, using both hands and feet to launch a fierce attack on Su Liang. Its movements were as swift as lightning, and its punches were as fierce as a rainstorm. This describes the ferocious beast puppet's current state.

Su Liang effortlessly parried the attacks, observing the ferocious beast puppet's performance. He guessed that, if he wasn't mistaken, the ferocious beast puppet was currently in the beast transformation prototype it was imitating.

After exchanging blows for several minutes, Su Liang was somewhat disappointed to see that the ferocious beast puppet was only launching a relentless attack without using any further techniques.

"It seems that this puppet is merely imitating the beast transformation and attack methods of an ancient emperor's young son?"

Su Liang grabbed the head of the ferocious beast puppet and flung it away. The beast puppet, like a swallow with broken wings, crashed heavily onto the Milky Way.

Su Liang unleashed a giant palm formed from spiritual energy, striking the ferocious beast puppet. The puppet writhed a few times before its eyes dimmed.

Su Liang took out the Reincarnation Seal and watched as the Yin-Yang fish swam over the chest of the ferocious beast puppet, transporting spiritual energy to revive it. Several other puppets on the other side had also been restored, and Su Liang had the ferocious beast puppets join them.

Su Liang said, his face betraying his disappointment:

"It seems that the puppet really is just a puppet. Its ability to imitate has a limit. Although I don't know how much strength the puppet imitated the original owner had, it seems that it can only have 1 or 2 points of the original owner's strength right now?"

If outsiders heard Su Liang say these words, they would probably be speechless, as the puppet was indeed not as strong as the original owner.

But relying on their superior cultivation level and formidable physique, they still had to withstand the great...

Emperor Wei pressured them to fight, but if they encountered this ferocious beast puppet, even Xie Hong and the other two would probably get hurt.

After all, not everyone is as monstrous as Su Liang, who tries to suppress the beast puppet with a few punches and palm strikes while simultaneously attempting to exert pressure.

With the addition of the ferocious beast puppets, Su Liang's team became even more efficient at hunting. Within a range of 15,000 meters, no puppet could stand a chance against the ferocious beast puppets. This made Su Liang and his group the most bizarre test on this Emperor Road. Everyone watched in bewilderment as Su Liang led a bunch of puppets to snipe at a lone puppet.

……

At 16,000 meters, Xie Hong and his two companions also encountered trouble. Because they entered together and were not far apart, they attracted the attention of several puppets.

Looking at the six metal bodies in front of them, Xie Hong complained bitterly. After reaching 1.6 meters, the pressure of the Great Emperor here was more than three times that of when they started. Even they had to use four layers of force to resist this pressure of the Great Emperor.

"Join forces!" Xie Hong shouted. Yu Qiu and Qing Bi nodded in agreement. They had just been sleeping for a while and their brains were a little fuzzy, but they weren't stupid.

Yuqiu took the lead, transforming his hand into sharp claws and swiftly attacking a puppet. The puppet facing Yuqiu, wielding a long sword, met him head-on. The sound of golden claws clashing rang out. This time, Yuqiu held nothing back, and the long-sword puppet was torn apart in a single exchange. Having traveled so far on this path, they had naturally already discovered the secrets of puppets.

Xie Hong did the same, operating at full power, with ten thousand venomous snakes emerging from behind him. After biting the puppet, the snakes' fangs secreted a corrosive venom, which turned the puppet's metallic body into molten iron.

Qingbi, who had consumed the least amount of energy among them, raised her jade hand, and her innate divine power, Azure Light, swept out, disintegrating the two puppets in front of her in a single move. The remaining puppets were quickly reduced to dust and disappeared with the combined efforts of the three.

Xie Hong's face was grim, his anger suppressed. It was one thing to be inferior to Han Bo and Wang Tian.

Now, even on the Emperor's Road, they have to join forces to pass through, which makes him very resentful. After being summoned by Zhuli, he was not only beaten up by the human prodigies of this era, but also fell behind the others. Is Xie Hong really that incompetent?

The thought of that seemingly divine human prodigy made him feel a little better, and he laughed mockingly:

"I wonder where that Su Liang is crawling now. He probably can't go any further than a few hundred meters, haha!"

A sinister smile also appeared on Yuqiu's face.

"That's right. He uttered arrogant words in front of the Emperor's statue, but now he can't even pass through this short Emperor's Road. How ridiculous! Once we get this inheritance and get out of here, Su Liang will be nothing more than a grasshopper in our hands!"

Just as Yuuki and Xie Hong were enjoying their 'future', in the distance...

Dozens of figures flew towards them. Xie Hong and Yu Qiu's expressions changed. Looking at the densely packed puppet army in the sky, they felt their scalps tingle.

"Hide! There's no point in fighting them like this! Even if we win, it'll be time-consuming and exhausting, and it won't be good for the upcoming assessment."

Xie Hong spoke decisively, then his body transformed into a skin, crawling and hiding to the side.

Yuqiu and Qingbi beside him did not hesitate either, each using their own methods to disperse their aura and begin to conceal themselves.

The puppet army flew across the sky, completely ignoring the three people hiding below. Just when Xie Hong and the others thought they had escaped, they inadvertently saw Su Liang, who was surrounded by the puppet army, glance at them coldly before turning his gaze away and continuing on his way.

This discovery sent chills down Xie Hong and the others' spines, as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Yu Qiu even cried out in disbelief:

"Impossible! How could Su Liang have gotten here? Could the records be wrong? Could Su Liang not have been subjected to multiple times the pressure at all?"

Xie Hong's face was grim. "The question we should be considering now is how Su Liang could control the puppets. Did he discover some secret about them?"

With her jade-like teeth slightly biting, she had just been mocking Su Liang, but now they were like clowns, crawling and hiding, filled with fear and unease. Even when Su Liang noticed them, he didn't even bother to acknowledge them.

Chapter 945 The Young Emperor

As Su Liang flew past Xie Hong and his companions, surrounded by the puppet army, he spotted the three hiding figures.

Su Liang considered whether to kill them now, because he was only 90% sure he wouldn't fail, and the chance of failing was too high.

Su Liang dared not gamble. If he beat them half to death and they escaped with the secret treasure, it would be difficult to find another opportunity next time.

Along the way, Su Liang captured more and more puppets by raising them. The spiritual energy required by the puppets seemed terrifying to others, but it was just a drop in the ocean for Su Liang.

As the number of puppets controlled by the Reincarnation Seal increased, Su Liang noticed that the Reincarnation Seal had also undergone subtle changes. It seemed that the Reincarnation Seal and this space had begun to have a mysterious connection, but the change was too small for Su Liang to discern.

At 2.5 meters, a major battle is breaking out.

Here, frost stretched to the horizon, and a biting cold permeated the air, as if time and space themselves had been frozen. Wang Tian gazed solemnly at the puppet in the distance, a cold glint flashing in his icy blue pupils. Under those pupils, Wang Tian was confident that nothing in the world could escape his scrutiny.

Even among the prodigies of ancient times, he could discern the element of coldness in their techniques simply by looking into their pupils. Furthermore, he could even see only the coldness in their pupils.

Manipulating cold energy and injecting it into others' moves to disrupt them are both possible.

Even more terrifying is that Wang Tian can release cold air directly into other people's bodies through his pupils. These icy hell eyes are truly worthy of being eyes that can only appear in the Divine Realm.

But today, Wang Tian realized he was wrong. Even when he channeled all his spiritual energy into his eyes, he couldn't see a trace of coldness around the puppet.

This puppet seemed to have merged itself into this world, with no flaws in its body, and its spiritual energy was inexhaustible, as if the world itself was helping and blessing it.

Wang Tian felt he was in a difficult situation. Just as he was pondering this, the puppet did not stop. It reached out with a grab, followed by a phantom of a blue dragon. Wang Tian's image was reflected in the dragon's eyes as it roared towards him.

Wang Tian activated his eyes again, but he still couldn't see the chilling aura contained within the azure dragon phantom. Helpless, he had no choice but to use his family's ultimate technique to break it.
