Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master-Chapter 605 - 169: You’ve Worked Hard_2
Chapter 605: Chapter 169: You’ve Worked Hard_2
The wood entwined with bloodstains, intertwining like pythons—the Python Pattern Blood Fir.
The upper part is turquoise, and the lower part reveals a blue spiritual liquid—Bikong Ocean Sky.
The four-fingered bird claw, as sturdy as if cast from copper—Dead Pigeon Claw.
…
Having stolen a great deal, Ning Zhuo gradually gained some insight.
“These platforms, treasures, seem to be a matching set, capable of forging some kind of mechanical artifacts…”
“Old Monster in Stone” had stolen from the front and back, left and right, inside and out of the transport team.
The entire transport team was wailing; if they weren’t killed, then they were robbed of everything, demoralizing the troops.
Mass retreat ensued.
This left the Nascent Soul Cultivators of Liangzhu Country without military power support, causing an immediate decline in combat effectiveness.
Fu Yunzi and Shanyuezi decisively joined forces, continuously combining attacks to withstand the collapse.
“The truly valuable treasures should all be in the escort officer’s storage bag.” Sun Lingtong, looking at the group battling in the sky, was still very excited.
Ning Zhuo nodded slightly: “Then let’s wait and see.”
Storage bags, storage rings, storage waist belts, and so forth, all have different carrying capacities. Some are strong, some are weak.
The more treasures stored inside, the higher the grade, the more it consumes the carrying capacity.
That’s why there often needs to be transport teams, merchant caravans.
Whether it’s teleportation or high-grade storage equipment, the cost is much higher.
The most precious military supplies are in the escort officer’s storage bag, but there usually isn’t much because the more valuable items often have a high grade, so the amount they can carry is naturally scarce.
Boom boom boom!
“Die for me…”
“Take this move from me…”
Slap slap slap!
“What a deadly spell…”
“Thief, don’t be rampant…”
Bang bang bang!
“Taste our combined Mountain Cloud Overwhelm!”
“Hmph, that’s all there is to it.”
…
Sun Ning and his companion enjoyed the show from underground.
Liangzhu Country’s three Nascent Soul Cultivators were already few in number and gradually losing the battle.
While the escort officer was dodging left and right, his storage bag was struck and fell down, landing right above the stone ball on the ground.
Chen Lingfeng lunged to grab the storage bag.
But the next moment, a mysterious light flashed, revealing Old Monster in Stone, who absorbed the storage bag into his possession.
Chen Lingfeng shouted, “Senior Shi, this is too much!”
Sun Lingtong nodded, his voice hoarse, pretending to be Old Monster in Stone: “Indeed it is.”
Chen Lingfeng was slightly stunned, lifting a glimmer of hope and about to continue persuading, but Sun Lingtong said, “You’ve worked hard. Keep it up next time.”
“I…” Chen Lingfeng almost cursed out loud.
Then, he watched as “Old Monster in Stone” sank into the ground and disappeared once again.
There was a sealing method on the storage bag, and it couldn’t be opened for the time being.
Sun Ning and his companion were patient and not in a hurry, continuing to observe the fierce battle.
Seeing the loss of military supplies, the escort officer felt a sharp pain in his chest, his fighting spirit dissolved. After urgent communication with Fu Yunzi and Shanyuezi, they immediately began to retreat.
The ambush troops from Thousand Peak Forest chased them for a while but dared not pursue further.
After all, they were in the rear of the enemy’s forces, where enemies were everywhere.
Thus, the second ambush battle came to an end.
“Go find Old Monster in Stone!”
“He’s gone too far, almost all of our spoils of war have been snatched by him.”
“We risked our lives here to intercept the transport team, only to let Old Monster in Stone benefit alone. I can’t stand it!”
“I hate, I’m so full of hate!! Now I see through Old Monster in Stone. He’s always been so silent, but his true nature is detestable!”
The faces of the many Golden Core and Nascent Soul Cultivators of Thousand Peak Forest were extremely grim.
Sun Ning and his companion had already traveled through the earth and left.
The news of the transport team’s attack and the plundering of its supplies were urgently conveyed to Mulu Town.
Upon receiving the terrible news, Shuang Ling at first found it hard to believe: “How is that possible? It’s impossible!”
“And yet, such an important transport, it was ambushed by the enemy forces?”

“My Mechanical Platform and all my precious materials!!!” Shuang Ling said, seething with fury, grinding her teeth.
Gradually calming down, her eyes emitted a sinister gleam: “Hmph, Old Monster in Stone! As long as you’re within Liangzhu Country, I will find you!”
Shuang Ling took out a large number of Mechanical Artifacts, setting up a Magic Platform.
The mechanical devices interlocked with each other, set in place, combined, and constructed into a Mechanical Magic Platform.
She immediately ascended the platform to cast her spells.
After 30 minutes, daylight stars appeared!
Divine Skills in action—Stellar Concealment.
The starlight twinkled, pinpointing the thief’s location, direction.
Failure!
Shuang Ling’s face dramatically changed, and she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, instantly kneeling on the ground, her spirit visibly waning.
“How is it possible?”
“Could it be that Old Monster in Stone has already left Liangzhu Country?”
“Old Monster in Stone” has been dismantled, Sun Ning and another are aboard the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon, navigating through the void.
Just as they were about to finish this traversal, about to return to the real world, Sun Lingtong suddenly yelled, “Wait!”
Ning Zhuo was controlling the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon, while he was studying the escort officer’s Storage Bag, trying to figure out how to break through the anti-theft setup of the Storage Bag, when suddenly he saw stars bursting forth from the Storage Bag.
Sun Lingtong immediately realized: “Someone is tracking and locating us!”
“We can’t go out just yet.”
“Hurry, Little Zhuo, let’s continue to navigate through the void.”
Sun Lingtong timely stopped Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo also felt a surge of anxiety and continued to maneuver the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon, drifting through the void.
In this process, Sun Lingtong frequently applied his Stealing Techniques, reinforcing the Storage Bag and the precious materials and Mechanical Platform they had plundered.
“Not much of an effect.”
“What kind of method does the other side have? It’s so powerful!”
“No, they must have tampered with these military supplies in advance, which is why we could be investigated and tracked.”
After discerning the truth, Sun Lingtong was at a loss for what to do.
He was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and his cultivation of the Youthful Emperor’s Technique was not yet considered a mainstream technique of the Bukong Sect.
“Let’s wander a bit more, I refuse to believe they will continue to search for us indefinitely.”
Following Sun Lingtong’s strategy of delay, Sun Ning and another tried continuously, and finally, they waited until the starlight faded and ceased to manifest.
They drifted in the void for a while longer, making sure the starlight did not reappear, before they finally left the void and returned to the real world.
“Where is this?” Sun Ning and the other quickly determined their location.
“Bikong Mountain?” They quickly figured out that they were in the midst of Thousand Peak Forest.
The exact location was Bikong Mountain.
“Where have the guards here gone?”
“Not a soul in sight!” Ning Zhuo was curious.
Sun Lingtong suddenly shouted: “Right, right, Little Zhuo, let’s hurry to the top of the mountain. There, the Bikong Pond produces Void Crystals.”
“With Void Crystals, we can improve the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon, reducing the consumption when we navigate the void significantly.”
Sun Ning and the other cautiously sneaked to the mountaintop, encountering not a single enemy in the process.
How strange!
The Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon submerged into Bikong Pond, where they saw clusters of Void Crystals condensing at the bottom of the pond.
“These Void Crystals are not large, the majority have not yet fully formed and can’t be mined.” Sun Lingtong said, disappointed.
Ning Zhuo reacted by then: “I think I might know why it’s like this here.”
“Our four armies are attacking Thousand Peak Forest. I’m clear about the marching routes of the Three Generals Camp and Red Flower Camp.”
“Even though I’m not sure about the Barbarian Demon Camp and Golden Halberd Army, we can guess based on the information we have.”
“Given the location of Bikong Mountain, it’s quite deep into Thousand Peak Forest. It likely lies on the path of one of the armies, hence the guards here might have already retreated in advance.”
“Barbarian Demon Camp suffered heavy losses and couldn’t have reached such depths in a short time.”
“So, it is likely the Golden Halberd Army!”
“This army will probably reach here soon.”
As Sun Lingtong listened to Ning Zhuo’s analysis, he observed the crystallization at the bottom of the pond: “Little Zhuo, stop analyzing. Look at that section of Void Crystals, there’s a small piece that’s fully formed, we can extract it.”
“What a pity it would be to miss this opportunity!”
