On a mountain path, surrounded by bushes, a sea of green stretched out.
Ye Xiu walked steadily in one direction.
Before long, he arrived at an unfamiliar place, encircled by dense shrubs.
Ye Xiu sat down on a rock to take a break. Suddenly, he heard rustling sounds coming from the grass behind him.
A chill ran down his spine.
Could it be that he would encounter something so soon?
Sure enough, when Ye Xiu turned around, he saw a face!
The scene was not chaotic; Ye Xiu calmly asked, "How did you end up here?"
It was clearly directed at the person behind him.
"I was bored all alone~~~"
"Pfft~~~" Ye Xiu couldn't help but laugh at the slightly coy voice.
"Aren't you afraid I might eat you in this deep mountain?" Ye Xiu threatened playfully, making a scary face.
"Hmph! You?" Summer Mo didn't even glance at Ye Xiu, completely dismissing him.
Ye Xiu had no words to say; after all, who could blame him for being so weak?
"Alright, alright, I'll let you join me, but you have to listen to me. Otherwise, I won't let you go home," Ye Xiu thought that since he was alone anyway, having someone to accompany him wasn't too bad.
"Mm-mm-mm~~~" Summer Mo replied eagerly.
As they walked along, Ye Xiu focused on the path ahead while Summer Mo looked around, occasionally crouching in the grass to search for flowers and butterflies.
Everything seemed new to her, as if she had never seen it before.
The deeper they went, the more open the surroundings became. They found themselves in a valley where water flowed continuously down the slopes, and everything was lush and green.
Nature was beautiful here; it was a stark contrast to the concrete jungle of the city. In this place, one felt a refreshing change of mood.
Just as they were lost in their enjoyment, a massive shadow suddenly loomed over a large patch of grass.
Before Ye Xiu and Summer Mo could react, in an instant, the enormous shadow lunged at Ye Xiu.
Accustomed to sudden events, even with his super reflexes, Ye Xiu couldn't evade such speed. The giant shadow collided with him, sending him flying. He landed on the slope where the water flowed, coughing up a mouthful of blood that stained the water red.
Summer Mo was terrified. Once she regained her senses, she rushed to Ye Xiu's side, panicking and unsure of what to do.
The massive shadow slowly revealed its true form.
A figure shrouded in black mist stood before Ye Xiu, its face obscured and its towering frame reminiscent of two burly men combined, entirely wrapped in black stones. It seemed dazed, as if devoid of consciousness.
Ye Xiu knew he couldn't defeat this being, and escape was certainly not an option.
He raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and pressed his hand against his chest as he spoke, "Who are you? Why are you attacking me?"
The strange figure did not pause to think; it lunged forward to continue its assault on Ye Xiu.
Ye Xiu felt a surge of fear—this creature was incredibly aggressive.
Just as Ye Xiu braced for a punch from the creature, it suddenly turned away, retracting its fist and charging in another direction.
In front of it stood a group of people.
The leader of the group instructed those around him, "Heart, this is a Puppet, with strength around the mid-level of the Spirit Jade Realm."
Then, the leader drew a long sword from beside him and held it before his brow decisively. "Three Jade Formation."
The nine individuals behind the leader arranged themselves into three groups of three, forming a circle with gaps between each group that encircled another circle. The center of this formation was occupied by the Leader.
Once the formation was established, the Leader was the first to charge forward with his sword drawn, and the nine others followed suit into the encircling formation.
The Leader thrust his sword toward the Puppet's face. There was a sharp "clang" as the blade scraped against the Puppet's visage without finding its mark.
Puppet wasted no time and threw a punch at the leading man. The man faced Puppet's attack without a hint of concern, countering with his sword.
As Puppet's strike approached him, the nine members of the Three Jade Formation behind him seemed to merge into one, effortlessly neutralizing Puppet's attack. In the process, a hidden force emerged from the nine, launching a counterattack against Puppet.
Unfazed and undeterred, Puppet raised another fist and struck towards the nine who had formed the Three Jade Formation. Leader continued to assault Puppet relentlessly.
The battle raged on for quite some time, with Puppet growing stronger with each exchange while the others weakened.
Seeing the situation deteriorate, Leader returned to the Three Jade Formation to confer with his companions. "This mid-level Puppet from the Spirit Jade Realm is indeed remarkable. Even with my mid-level Spirit Jade Realm strength combined with your nine junior Elite Disciples, we cannot overcome it. It seems I must resort to something more drastic. You can't catch a wolf without letting go of the cub; once I use Thunder Spell, we will swiftly dismantle Puppet's power. Remember, we need to capture it alive; having such a Puppet in my Maple Whisper Tower would greatly enhance our strength!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Upon hearing the words "Maple Whisper Tower," Ye Xiu's perception of the group shifted dramatically. Initially, Ye Xiu wanted to express his gratitude, but knowing that he was dealing with the eldest son of Maple Whisper Tower's leader changed his view entirely.
Meanwhile, Puppet continued its chaotic assault with fists and feet, while the members of Maple Whisper Tower retaliated with various techniques and powers.
The leader of Maple Whisper Tower shouted, "Dodge!" The Three Jade Formation quickly disbanded as each of the nine scattered away.
A blue ethereal light shot from Leader's hand, gently adhering to Puppet's body.
Then, the blue light exploded instantaneously. Lightning crackled above Puppet's head before transforming into a massive thunderclap that detonated with a resounding boom. The grassy area around Puppet was instantly turned barren, and the ground sank by a foot.
In the distance, Ye Xiu and Summer Mo were also affected by the blast, thrown off their feet but relatively unharmed due to their distance. However, Puppet was severely impacted; many stones fell from its body, revealing patches of blackened skin beneath.
Kneeling slightly, the Puppet's eyes glowed red with hatred as it glared at the members of Maple Whisper Tower.
The members of Maple Whisper Tower, on the other hand, were all smiles, knowing that their plans were about to come to fruition and that their strength would soon increase significantly.
One of the disciples stepped forward behind the Leader and said, "Congratulations, Elder, on achieving another great feat. Why not let me handle the finishing touches? There's no need to trouble you."
The Leader smiled at the Puppet and cheerfully replied, "Go ahead, go ahead."
The disciple approached the Puppet with his sword drawn, ready to sever its hands. However, an unexpected change occurred.
Suddenly, the Puppet emitted a blinding red light, its power surging dramatically. The elder with the highest strength among them reacted instantly.
"Why has the Puppet's power skyrocketed to the peak of the Spirit Jade Realm?!"
"This is bad! Retreat, retreat!" The elder exclaimed in alarm.
But how could the Puppet let such a golden opportunity slip away?
With a swift motion, the Puppet raised its hand and struck. In an instant, its fist pierced through the disciple's chest.
The elder's face drained of color as he realized that if he held back now, he might lose his life. With one less disciple, even if he returned alive to Maple Whisper Tower, his position as elder would be in jeopardy.
Desperately, the elder reached into his robes and pulled out a pitch-black Obsidian Fragment, hurling it toward the Puppet.
The speed of the Obsidian Fragment was like light itself, instantly teleporting in front of the Puppet.
"Run!!! Run!!!" the Elder shouted loudly at the disciples.
The Obsidian Fragment transformed into a circle of void, enveloping the entire body of the Puppet.
The Elder led the disciples in a frantic escape.
Seeing the situation turn dire, Ye Xiu, with Summer Mo supporting him, also moved away into the distance.
The void grew darker and brighter, like an energy that had been building up for a long time about to explode!
Although Ye Xiu had just entered the Spirit Heart Realm, he could feel this terrifying power. He felt as if he was about to die here, caught in the explosion of that immense Great Power.
Sure enough, the energy erupted.
Ye Xiu closed his eyes.
