Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 664: The Big Boss Appears (Request Subscription)
Looking at Pei Yan showing off in front of me with a treasure pouch in one hand and headphones in the other, Pavilion Master Sheng smiled bitterly, resigned! How could he be resigned! Our side hasn't even released the puppets, not showing even a tenth of our true strength, and we've already been taken down—who would be resigned!
But what can you do if you aren't resigned? This isn't a martial arts contest; it's a life-and-death battle right in front of you. Once your weakness is seized, it can lead to your demise—what can you say then?
Thinking of this, Pavilion Master Sheng lowered his head in defeat then lifted it again to ask Pei Yan: "How exactly did you see through my sect's weakness!"
"Quite simple, it's because of your late junior disciple!" Pei Yan glanced at Bai Xuelin's corpse on the ground and continued: "I fought against him earlier to see how strong the Daoist Plane's Mechanical Puppet really is, and he, indeed, perfectly displayed this technique in front of me. I must admit, your mechanical techniques do have their intricacies, but I discovered a flaw within them. It's at that very moment when Bai Xuelin's Primordial Spirit enters his life puppet; during this instance, the Spiritual Qi within your body follows the Primordial Spirit into the life puppet, while your physical body resides in the Jiezhi Space. In this fleeting switch between the two, your Primordial Spirit and physical body are at their weakest. At this moment, your ability is even less than an awakened abilities user of level five or six. That's why Bai Xuelin used a flash to cover up this action. Unfortunately..."
Pei Yan pointed to his left Mechanical Eye with a smile: "Unfortunately, this eye of mine is a Mechanical Eye, and such exposure is completely ignored. Analyzing carefully, it's not difficult to see through the mystery. You were still too careless. If you had completed the life puppet conversion beforehand, based on Bai Xuelin's puppet power estimate, I wouldn't dare to boast about facing four Heavenly Dao Realm cultivators with my strength alone."
"Defeat is defeat, your ability to see through the puppet's flaw in a single battle is your skill. In fact, there are quite a few who can see through such flaws; what truly oppresses us is your bizarre speed. How do you manage to move so swiftly? It's entirely beyond the limits achievable by mechanical puppets!" Although hard to accept, Pavilion Master Sheng began to resign himself but still needed to ask this question deep in his heart, because he didn't believe the foundation plane's mechanical technique would be so superior to the Daoist Plane's. Such speed isn't achievable even if the Mo Sect and Celestial Secret Pavilion, the two sects of mechanical technique, join forces.
To his disappointment, Pei Yan shrugged his shoulders, offering no answer to this question, leaving Pavilion Master Sheng with no choice but to force a bitter smile. Of course, how could someone reveal such a secret lightly? And Pei Yan, looking at Pavilion Master Sheng's dejected face, felt somewhat helpless, not because he wouldn't say, but because even if said, it's of no use.
This indeed isn't something achievable by modern technology but is triggered as Pei Yan enters the seventh level of awakened abilities, unleashing the state of omnipotence. Actually, after Pei Yan absorbed Song Mingyuan's Power of Thunder, he stepped into the realm of high-speed combat, but such speed wasn't truly as nimble as lightning due to his physical limitations. Even later, after boosting the mechanism, using engine propulsion achieved faster actions compared to merely adding thunder's power, making it more nimble, leading Pei Yan to put thunder aside for a long time without taking it as his main attack means.
But today, once he ascended to the seventh level of awakening, the situation entirely changed! Firstly, the ability itself produced effects, enhancing all his abilities, allowing complete mastery among them. Second was the impact of heavenly tribulation, with lots of spiritual thunder entering his body, thoroughly activating his thunder abilities, granting him more powerful force. Hence, when he unleashes omnipotence and thunder, he becomes entirely lightning, able to move at lightning speed.
But such nearly irrational high-speed movement comes at a cost. Don't be deceived by Pei Yan's calm expression; only he knows the internal struggle. When converting back from lightning state to mechanical body state, the thunder won't quickly dissipate; instead, it uncontrollably rampages within him. Even in mechanical state, he can't completely resist this backlash and needs to muster all his spirits to suppress the pain.
Nevertheless, all this pain is worthwhile. With this power, Pei Yan defeated the strong from the weak, consecutively making two Heavenly Dao Mirror cultivators perish, one in confusion and the other caught due to anger. Now the situation is settled, allowing Pei Yan a breath of relief yet with some pride: "Pavilion Master Sheng, what are your plans now?"
"Hehe, brat, I'm asking you what do you intend to do?"
Just as Pei Yan finished speaking, before Pavilion Master Sheng could respond, a series of cold laughter followed by questioning echoed from the sky. Hearing this voice, Pei Yan shivered all over, turning his stiff neck to sneak a peek at the sky. Upon seeing that familiar petite figure, he immediately removed his face guard, displaying an ingratiating smile: "I don't dare, whatever you say!"
"Hmph, look at you! She's merely a clone, and you are scared like this!" Lin Junzhao sneered from within.
"Can you handle such a clone?" Pei Yan retorted.
"Of course I can, but I don't wish to!" Lin Junzhao responded angrily.
The one they are both so apprehensive of is none other than Lin Ruxue, the source embodiment of the Daoist Plane!
When Pei Yan swiftly slew the Celestial Secret Pavilion's first elder, the leaders of the Six Mansions of the Immortal Palace seated around the Ten-Eyed Well wore the most unpleasant expressions. Originally intending to probe the opponent's strengths, they didn't expect the situation to escalate, not only losing Bai Xuelin, but now even risking the downfall of the Celestial Secret Pavilion at the opponent's hands. Bai Xuelin's death was of no importance, but if the Celestial Secret Pavilion gets humiliated to such extent, not just the pavilion, but the Daoist Plane would be questioned by other major planes regarding its strength status.
"This child must not remain!" Feng Tianhe of the Mo Sect, a rival aligned with mechanical techniques, slammed the table furiously after witnessing this, exclaiming in anger. This person, alive, poses a huge threat to the Daoist Plane's mechanical warriors! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
"Who said he mustn't remain! I've found that my palace has been far too lenient with you. Now, even my orders are being defied openly! Should I consider directly intervening in this election, bringing a truly obedient sect to control the Immortal Palace?"
