Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams-Chapter 396 - 208: Straw Dogs

"Just now, it seemed like a pure Divine Sense swept past!"

Among this group of disciples from Qiyun Valley, Zhongli Qing, whose strength was almost infinitely close to the Qi Cultivation Perfection Realm, suddenly frowned and spoke, her gaze directed to the distance.

The remaining people, upon hearing her words, immediately changed their spell gestures, suspending themselves in mid-air with Wind Manipulation, looking around vigilantly.

"Senior Sister Zhongli, did you make a mistak—"

"Hmm!? Someone’s here!"

A young girl beside Zhongli Qing was about to say that Zhongli Qing was hallucinating, but her gaze suddenly noticed a black dot rushing in from the horizon ahead!

"Everyone, be careful!"

Feeling the unfamiliar aura on the approaching person, Zhongli Qing promptly reminded them in a deep voice!

For a moment, all the disciples of Qiyun Valley behind her stimulated their Spiritual Power, cautiously on guard!

It was Wushi Puppet who was walking through the void. Seeing that this group of cultivators had spotted him, yet didn’t run, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Not running is good, saves me the trouble of wasting Spiritual Power to capture you..."

He muttered to himself softly. With a few steps, Wushi Puppet appeared in the void hundreds of meters away from Zhongli Qing and the others.

The two sides thus faced each other from a distance.

Wushi Puppet’s eyes, upon seeing Zhongli Qing and a few female cultivators from Qiyun Valley, showed an even stronger smile on his aged face.

On Zhongli Qing’s side, she sensed the profound and abyss-like aura of the old man opposite her, and her expression became somewhat solemn.

"Who are you?"

"We are disciples of Qiyun Valley..."

Before she could finish her words, Wushi Puppet had already started reciting a spell, activating the Imperial Extreme Tripod in his hand.

In an instant, the ancient Bronze Tripod emitted a terrifying Blood Evil aura!

Feeling this terrifying aura, Zhongli Qing was shocked. While she activated the Magical Artifact Whip to wrap around Wushi Puppet, she also shouted to her fellow disciples behind her!

"Run, this person’s strength is too strong!"

The Magical Artifact Whip, under the stimulation of her Spiritual Power, suddenly expanded by hundreds of meters, transforming into a black rope aiming to entangle Wushi Puppet.

But even as the black rope approached, Wushi Puppet’s eyes showed no fluctuations, not even planning to resist.

He calmly gripped the base of the Imperial Extreme Tripod with his large hand, slowly turning the tripod’s mouth towards Zhongli Qing and the others.

In a moment, the dozens of Qiyun Valley disciples preparing to flee hundreds of meters away were sucked into the tripod, including Zhongli Qing, who was nearly at the Qi Cultivation Perfection Realm.

Having captured dozens of people, Wushi Puppet, satisfied, looked at the tiny figures inside the tripod, laughing softly.

"They’re all good stuff. When I return, I’ll bathe, dress, and enjoy them properly."

Holding the Imperial Extreme Tripod, he gazed in the direction from which Zhongli Qing and the others had come. After some thought, he muttered, "Did these cultivators come from that direction? Could there be a Profound Gate Immortal Sect over there?"

With this thought, his heart suddenly warmed.

For him, cultivators were far more nourishing than ordinary people.

Harvesting a Profound Gate Immortal Sect this time could be far more rewarding than plundering a few mundane cities.

"I thought my luck was bad, but it seems it’s quite good this time."

Wushi Puppet smiled, ready to head in the direction from which Zhongli Qing and the others had appeared, but suddenly frowned.

He seemed to have sensed someone entering the range of his Divine Sense, but they immediately changed direction and fled!

"To sense my Divine Sense and escape quickly..."

A gleam flashed in Wushi Puppet’s eyes. His figure flickered and immediately pursued in the southwest direction!

Above the vast prairie, Yao Lin was clutching a spell gesture, fleeing away with a terrified look.

She initially planned to return to Fengxian County to inform Li Heshan and the others that the corpse cultivators had been dealt with by her, to dispel their doubts and prevent them from disturbing her during corpse refining later.

Unexpectedly, on her way back, she suddenly felt an extremely powerful Divine Sense envelop the path ahead.

As someone in the Late Stage of Fetal Breathing, Yao Lin could clearly feel the terror of this Divine Sense.

The moment she entered the range of the other’s Divine Sense, a strand of instinctive fear arose in her heart!

Golden Core!

It must be an old monster of the Golden Core Realm!

The Divine Sense of the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm could absolutely not make me feel this way!

How could there be a Golden Core Realm strong person in the Yangnao Land?!

Could it be Old Man Jiang from Luoxia Mountain?

As Yao Lin fled, her mind was spinning frantically.

Suddenly, another Divine Sense swept by!

Yao Lin’s heart tightened as she looked back anxiously.

In the distance, she saw a black dot rapidly enlarging, chasing in her direction!

That figure moved extremely fast, several times quicker than her full-speed flight at the Late Stage of Fetal Breathing!

In just a blink, she could already see the appearance of the pursuer!

It was an old man dressed in a Dark Gold Embroidered Robe, wearing a Gilded Crown!

The old man had an aura of nobility, holding an ancient Bronze Tripod in his hand. His eyes were fierce and eagle-like, filled with strong dominance and authority!

Seeing the pursuer catching up, Yao Lin knew there was absolutely no chance of escape, so she stopped, turned, cupped her hands, and said, "Junior Yao Lin, Dean of Cliff Mountain Courtyard, Qiyun Valley, greets the senior."

"I accidentally disturbed the senior just now, please forgive me."

Knowing there was no way to escape, she could only hope that by apologizing politely, she might persuade the other to let her go.

Wushi Puppet quietly observed Yao Lin before him, his eyes like sharp swords, easily seeing through all her secrets.

"Fire Attribute Spirit Root, Late Stage of Fetal Breathing, practicing the Righteous Technique, your Dao Practice is indeed well-consolidated."
