Chapter 553 Zhang Tieyang

After seeing the humanoid spirit puppet appear in front of them, Song Qingming and Yun Xinhe, who were seeing this secret technique for the first time, looked at Master Qingluo with a hint of surprise.

The humanoid spirit puppet is also a kind of puppet technique, but because this kind of puppet made with special secret techniques is very close to a real person, the cultivation world has classified it separately and formed a new category.

The humanoid spirit puppet of Master Qingluo looks lifelike. Except that his cultivation level is only in the middle stage of foundation building, the whole person looks almost the same as him. It can be seen that it is indeed a very rare thing.

Jin Ziyuan, who was standing by, saw the curiosity on Song Qingming and the others' faces, and quickly explained: "Fellow Daoist Qingluo's method of refining spirit puppets is a very rare secret technique in our Floating Cloud Mountain Cultivation World. Don't look down on this humanoid spirit puppet because its cultivation is not high. It is much more useful to control than ordinary puppet beasts."

Hearing Jin Ziyuan's praise, True Man Qingluo immediately waved his hand with a smile and said: "It's just a trifling skill and not worth mentioning. Fellow Daoist Jin's words are a bit exaggerated. Although the secret technique of refining spirit puppets is hard to find, it is not a rare thing.

If you are interested, I can also give you a spirit puppet of the Qi Refining Stage each after you leave the tower. Although it won't be of much use, it is still very useful to put it in the cave to serve tea and water and deal with miscellaneous items."

Hearing True Man Qingluo say this, Song Qingming and the others also became interested and thanked him one after another.

As the people were talking, the humanoid spirit puppet controlled by Qingluo Zhenren had already approached the center of the stone chamber step by step.

Unexpectedly, just when the humanoid spirit puppet was about ten feet away from the stone statues, a vibration suddenly sounded under his feet, and the dozens of lifeless stone statues suddenly began to emit golden spiritual light.

Then the stone statues seemed to come alive and began to move slowly. Soon, the two stone puppet beasts closest to the humanoid spirit puppet suddenly jumped into the air and pounced on the humanoid spirit puppet not far ahead.

The stone puppet beast was still in the air, and a powerful white light ball had already been spit out from its mouth, which directly hit the silver shield in the hand of the humanoid spirit puppet, and directly repelled it several feet away.

Seeing this, the humanoid spirit puppet did not choose to fight with these stone puppet beasts. After rolling back to avoid several attacks that followed, he directly flashed out a set of somewhat weird body movements and quickly retreated to the side of Qingluo Zhenren.

This humanoid spirit puppet is so flexible, just like a real person, it is indeed not comparable to those ordinary puppet beasts with more clumsy movements. Seeing the response of Qingluo Zhenren's humanoid spirit puppet when facing danger, Song Qingming's eyes also showed a little surprise.

As expected, these stone statues surrounding the teleportation array are all ancient puppet beasts controlled by the array restrictions here. Once someone approaches and touches the restrictions, they will automatically be activated to attack the monks who break into the stone chamber.

Although these stone statues are only at the foundation-building stage, there are dozens of them, and many of them have reached the late foundation-building stage. If an ordinary Jindan monk encounters them alone, it will be very difficult to deal with them.

However, at this moment, they are facing Song Qingming's five powerful Jindan monks, and these ferocious stone statue puppet beasts are not so scary.

"Lure some of these puppet beasts before you start. Everyone, be careful not to damage the teleportation array in the middle, otherwise it will be troublesome to repair it later."

After Zhao Menglian gave everyone a warning, she took out a green short sword first, and slashed a sword light directly, slashing at a wolf-shaped stone statue that was about to pounce in front of her.

Song Qingming and others also took action to show their own magic weapons, and began to clean up the many stone puppet beasts of different shapes and styles that had already attacked them madly.

In the stone room, colorful magic weapons flew everywhere, and various "bang bang bang" sounds were heard, and from time to time, broken stones flew and hit the ground and walls of the stone room.

With the five Jindan monks working together, these puppet beasts did not pose any threat to them at all. However, in just one stick of incense, Song Qingming and others easily solved the half-grown stone puppet beast, and in the battle, they also deliberately protected the teleportation array in the distance, without causing any damage to the teleportation array.

Just as everyone was fighting fiercely, Song Qingming's consciousness suddenly sensed a different kind of magical pressure in the stone chamber. After dealing with a stone puppet beast in front of him, Song Qingming turned around and looked at a place not far from the teleportation array, and shouted loudly:

"Who is hiding here secretly? Come out!"

Hearing Song Qingming's sudden shout, Zhao Menglian immediately noticed something wrong, and waved her hand to throw a sharp blade of light directly to an open space next to the teleportation array.

"Fellow Taoists, stop! Don't misunderstand, I'll come out!"

As a trembling voice sounded, a fat figure suddenly appeared on the open space of the teleportation array and avoided Zhao Menglian's attack.

Seeing a person suddenly appear in front of them, Jin Ziyuan and the other two who were still fighting the stone statue puppet beast were also startled. They left behind the few remaining opponents and approached Song Qingming and Zhao Menglian.

"Who are you? Why are you hiding here and spying on us!"

"Fellow Daoist Zhao misunderstood. I am Zhang Tieyang, a casual cultivator from Shepherd Mountain. I actually entered the temple by mistake just now and arrived here before you. I didn't expect to hear a noise outside suddenly. I thought I met those demon kings, so I had no choice but to hide my body. I didn't mean to spy on you, fellow Daoist Zhao."

The person who spoke was a short and slightly fat young man. This person was also a Jindan-stage cultivator, and it seemed that he knew Zhao Menglian before, and he called out her last name as soon as he opened his mouth.

After hearing what Zhang Tieyang said, Song Qingming and Zhao Fenglian suddenly realized why there was a pile of broken stones from the stone statue puppet beast on the corridor outside just now. It was probably the masterpiece of Zhang Tieyang who came in before them.

Thinking of this, Zhao Menglian asked again: "You are just a casual cultivator, so why do you know me, but I have no impression of you at all."

Zhang Tieyang immediately explained nervously: "Fellow Daoist Zhao, you don't know that when I was not yet in the Dan stage, I also participated in the battle between Lu State and Tianhai League. It was at that time that I had the honor to meet Fellow Daoist Zhao.

But at that time, because my cultivation was low, I didn't have the opportunity to act alone with Fellow Daoist Zhao, so Fellow Daoist Zhao didn't have any impression of me."

Hearing the other party say this, Zhao Menglian's face seemed to be a little unconvinced. When she was about to continue asking, two stone statue puppet beasts rushed towards her and interrupted her question.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, be careful, I'm here to help you repel the enemy!" Zhang Tieyang, who was still thinking about how to gain the trust of Zhao Menglian and others, saw such a good opportunity, and immediately shouted and took out the magic weapon and rushed over directly, blocking a stone statue puppet beast that was entangled with Zhao Menglian.

Although Zhang Tieyang's cultivation was not high, only the second level of Jindan, he worked very hard. He killed a stone statue puppet beast in two or three moves, and then killed the remaining puppet beasts with a fierce look.

Seeing that the other party really wanted to help, Zhao Menglian didn't say anything more. Anyway, the most urgent task at hand was to quickly defeat these stone statue puppet beasts that were attacking them. The rest could wait until this matter was resolved.

After another half a quarter of an hour, as the last stone statue puppet beast was knocked off its head by Yun Xinhe's hammer, all the puppet beasts in the stone room finally turned into a pile of rubble, and everyone immediately stopped to take a breath.

Because Zhang Tieyang took the initiative to contribute a lot in the subsequent battles, everyone's impression of him was slightly better. After some inquiries, Zhao Menglian and others quickly confirmed his identity. This person was indeed a casual cultivator Jindan from Lu State, and he succeeded in forming a pill at about the same time as Song Qingming before the monster beast turmoil.

The two of them formed their dan at about the same time, and they had participated in the war with Tianhai League together. After Song Qingming chatted with him for a while, he also thought that he seemed to have seen this person on the battlefield in the past.

"Daoyou Zhang, may I ask how you found this place?"

Hearing Zhao Menglian's question, Zhang Tieyang said bluntly with some embarrassment: "I came to the Tongtian Tower this time, but I didn't come alone. It's just that I separated from that Daoyou after entering. I wanted to search for him everywhere nearby, but I didn't expect to find this palace by accident.

I thought there would be some opportunities here, so I broke in directly. I didn't expect that this place didn't find anything except those broken stone puppet beasts. Later, I met all Daoyou and was blocked here!"

"Oh! So that's it. Since Daoyou also has friends with you, I'm afraid the other party should also be looking for Daoyou everywhere, so we still have to go to other places Fang is looking for treasure, so I won't delay you and say goodbye now!"

As soon as Zhao Menglian finished speaking, Zhang Tieyang's face changed slightly, and he immediately bowed to the others and said: "I have been looking for him for a long time nearby, but I still haven't seen him. I'm afraid he is no longer nearby. I came here in a hurry and didn't prepare the same soul talisman. It is estimated that it will be difficult to find him again.

Since I have the opportunity to meet a few Taoist friends here, I wonder if you can do me a favor and take me with you. Don't worry, if you find any good things next, it's okay for me to share less. I just hope I can get out safely. "

Hearing Zhang Tieyang's request, Zhao Menglian and others looked at each other, and a hint of surprise appeared on their faces.
