Under One Person: The Puppet Immortal in the Tang Sect

Cui Ming's explanation was clear and objective, affirming Zhang Xuan's brilliant intuition while also pointing out the root of the problem.

If it were an ordinary person, Cui Ming would be lucky to save them.

But Zhang Xuan's extraordinary talent truly delighted Cui Ming.

If only this girl could join his Tang Clan, the Skillful Crafts Hall desperately needs someone like her.

As he spoke, Cui Ming's gaze toward Zhang Xuan began to show appreciation.

Zhang Xuan listened quietly, her eyes darting around, seemingly processing the information at a rapid pace.

She looked down at her prosthetic limb, which was covered in repair marks, then looked up at Cui Ming. Her lips moved, but she ultimately remained silent.

But he has clearly emerged from that state of self-doubt and his spirits have recovered considerably.

Ren Pingsheng gave Cui Ming a grateful look and gently patted his disciple's shoulder.

"Thank you for your help, Master Cui. My unworthy disciple was too arrogant and almost ruined everything."

"Today, my Mo Clan owes your Tang Clan a great favor. In the future, if there is anything my Mo Clan can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask. We will go through fire and water for you."

Cui Mingyi accepted the favor with a bow.

"Sect Leader Ren, you're too kind. Miss Zhang Xuan's approach to transformation has indeed taught me a lot."

"As for the prosthetic limbs she's wearing, I'll give them to her as tuition for learning techniques from Miss Zhang Xuan."

Ren Pingsheng then expressed his gratitude on Zhang Xuan's behalf and took her back to her position in the Mo Sect.

After this incident, everyone's attention returned to Cui Ming.

After that thrilling scene, no one dared to underestimate this young Tang Clan leader.

They were even more curious about the intermediate or even higher-level mechanical creations he mentioned.

Cui Ming didn't hesitate and immediately had an idea.

Several hidden wires flew out from the mechanism box on the back, and from the cargo box at the rear, a more complex intermediate mechanism prosthetic limb was hoisted up.

Unlike the basic model, this intermediate prosthesis features a complete, integrated construction.

This prosthetic limb covers almost all parts of the body from head to toe, and the dark main material has a faint metallic sheen.

Most importantly, mysterious runes are clearly engraved on each key point of the prosthesis.

Moreover, this prosthetic is not like the basic model, which only has an exoskeleton for support.

Important areas of the torso, such as the waist, abdomen, and spine, are covered with a layer of armor.

Together with a lightweight headgear with a neck support structure, they form a nearly complete protection system.

The most striking feature is the prominent groove designed in the center of the chest area of ​​this intermediate-level prosthesis.

The internal structure is intricate, seemingly reserved for some kind of core component.

"This is an upgraded individual exoskeleton armor designed specifically for Inhumans, based on the basic prosthetic limb."

Cui Ming's voice rang out, pulling everyone back from their shock at the device.

Chapter 81: Exoskeleton Makes its Official Debut

Originally, those people were just interested in Cui Ming's multi-armed mechanical creation.

At this moment, without exception, everyone was captivated by this futuristic, sci-fi-style prosthetic limb, which resembled a skeleton.

Even Zhuge Mingyue, who had been acting indifferent, couldn't help but widen her eyes.

Meng Ye's breathing quickened as he stared intently at the groove in the chest, muttering to himself.

"Rune enhancement...integrated construction...enhanced by Qi..."

Meng Ye's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and a conjecture in his mind became clearer and clearer.

Zhang Jingqing, who was stroking his beard, paused slightly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

It's clear that they understood the significance behind these prosthetics.

This is no longer just a set of auxiliary tools, but a single-soldier weapon that can significantly enhance the overall combat power of superhumans!

When the prosthetic limbs were fully revealed to the public, an eerie silence fell over the entire square.

The people in the room had different thoughts.

Most of the young disciples were mesmerized, captivated by the smooth metallic lines and shimmering runes of the prosthetic limb, and a yearning for power welled up within them.

Who wouldn't love such power that can be easily obtained without the need for grueling training day and night?

The leaders of each sect, however, wore solemn expressions, constantly weighing the various potential impacts of this prosthetic limb.

After seeing the prosthetic limb specially designed for extraordinary individuals, Zhuge Zhenxin, who was sitting in front of the stage, finally felt much less heavy-hearted, and instead felt a sense of realization.

Only now did he truly understand why the elders of his clan had paid such a terrible price after inquiring about the inner workings of the inner world.

They still insisted that he bring his daughter to the meeting and strongly advocated for good relations with Cui Ming and the Tang Clan.

Those who hold high positions in a sect are all shrewd individuals who have a keen understanding of the times.

They already had an idea of ​​the potential benefits of basic prosthetics for ordinary soldiers and for enhancing national strength.

However, the significance of this mechanical creation, which can enhance the combat power of superhumans and almost change the entire combat power structure of the superhuman world, is completely different.

This is tantamount to the "first musket" in the world of supernatural beings, and it will herald the arrival of a brand new era.

A new era has begun where individuals with extraordinary abilities can achieve leapfrog improvements in their strength through external means.

Cui Mingtai understands how the seven words "backwardness invites aggression" were etched into the national memory through blood and fire.

Although it is still somewhat distant for people of this era.

But the smoke of the Opium War had not yet dissipated, the iron hooves of the Eight-Nation Alliance still echoed in our ears, and a series of humiliating treaties that ceded sovereignty and national dignity lashed at the hearts of every sensible person like a thorny whip.

Although the martial arts world today emphasizes the cultivation of both body and mind, this tradition has a long history.

But if a nation is no longer a nation, and a family is no longer a family, what use is a person's cultivation if they are not truly cultivated?

He practiced martial arts for half his life and dedicated his entire life to upholding justice and chivalry.

In the end, however, he couldn't even protect the land beneath his feet and the millions of compatriots behind him.

What's the point? If your mind isn't clear, what's the point of practicing martial arts?

Cui Ming not only wants to promote the transformation of the Tang Sect, but also wants to use his abilities to strengthen the entire Eastern Kingdom's supernatural community, and even the entire Eastern Kingdom, as much as possible.

One day, he will turn those anti-Japanese war dramas from his past life into reality, so that everyone in my Eastern Kingdom can be Yan Shuangying!

"This thing! Our Tang Sect calls it—exoskeleton armor."

"As the name suggests, it is armor that is attached to the outside like a skeleton."

Cui Mingqing's clear voice broke the silence in the room and also gave this mechanical creation a name.

"I believe everyone can feel that wearing this exoskeleton armor will significantly improve personal protection and physical fitness, but that's not the key point."

"This armor can be enhanced with Qi!"

"Driven by Qi, the exoskeleton armor will grant the user a secondary blessing!"

Needless to say, Cui Ming knew that everyone was curious about the combat capabilities of this "exoskeleton armor".

Therefore, with a slight thought, Cui Ming manipulated the hidden lines.

The exoskeleton armor then flew toward Tang Miaoxing, who had been standing to the side waiting for a long time.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the armor components fit precisely onto Tang Miaoxing's limbs and torso, and with the operation of the mechanisms, they fit together seamlessly.

The helmet covered his face, revealing only a pair of indifferent eyes. His waist, abdomen, chest, and back were all protected, and the pre-reserved groove on his chest was temporarily empty.

However, the entire exoskeleton armor, worn by Tang Miaoxing, already exuded a dangerous aura as heavy as a mountain.

Tang Miaoxing took a deep breath, feeling the strange yet familiar sensation brought by the armor.

The Qi within his body naturally resonated with the runes on the surface of the armor, and an unprecedented sense of abundant power filled his entire body.

All the extraordinary individuals present could sense that although Tang Miaoxing stood still, his aura had undergone a dramatic change.

It was like a prehistoric behemoth with its gaping maw, ferocious and terrifying.

That sense of crisis, like a thorn in someone's back, making their hair stand on end, put everyone on high alert.

Just as Cui Ming was about to explain the demonstration method, a green figure couldn't hold back any longer and suddenly darted out from the Wuhou faction's seats.

It was Zhuge Mingyue!

"Hmph! You've been dawdling for so long, why don't you let me test his mettle!"

She gave a sharp rebuke, her face full of defiance and eagerness to try.

The frustration of her brother's disappearance and the pent-up resentment of being easily subdued by Cui Ming earlier all erupted at this moment.

'You want to prove how powerful this thing is? Well, I'll beat it down and make sure you don't get your way!'

Zhuge Mingyue, true to his straightforward and blunt nature, didn't listen to a word of Cui Ming's previous explanation.

Meanwhile, Tang Miaoxing turned his gaze to Cui Ming.

Instructions from Cui Ming also came through the mental connection.

"Senior Brother Miaoxing, just give a brief demonstration. Be mindful of your manners, after all, she is the eldest daughter of the Zhuge family."

Tang Miaoxing nodded almost imperceptibly.

The second match began abruptly.

The beginning was unexpected, and the ending was even more unexpected.

Zhuge Mingyue stomped her foot, and the Qimen formation on the ground unfolded.

Tang Miaoxing, clad in exoskeleton armor, flashed around.

Without any warning, in the eyes of most people, Tang Miaoxing's figure only blurred for a moment before appearing out of thin air behind Zhuge Mingyue like a ghost!

Its speed was so fast that it even left an afterimage in place.

This is precisely because Tang Miaoxing used his own Qi, combined with the Whirlwind Step and exoskeleton armor, to provide a terrifying boost to the user's mobility!

However, Zhuge Mingyue came from a prestigious family and reacted very quickly.
