Chapter 959: Song Shuhang: I feel like I’m going to suffer an unexpected financial loss today!

The energy core was preserved in good condition, and could be extracted and utilized… but where exactly in the puppet was the core located? Also, how could they extract it?

Song Shuhang looked for a while, but didn’t obtain any results. There were no screws on the surface of that thing, and it looked no different from a living creature. Even after taking a look at the broken places, all he saw was some puppet structure that he didn’t understand in the slightest. Even if he wanted to disa.s.semble it, he had no idea how to do it.

Senior Sister Ye Si suggested, “How about forcefully tearing down this spider puppet?”

Song Shuhang said, “Won’t it explode if we do so?”

From the information he had obtained through the secret appraisal technique, he knew that the core of the spider puppet was a ‘pseudo-eternal furnace’, which sounded like something dangerous. If they were careless and caused it to explode, his entire Inner World might be razed to the ground!

“In that case, how about taking a picture and sending it to the Nine Provinces Number One Group? There might be some seniors in the group capable of disa.s.sembling a puppet,” Senior Sister Ye Si said after pondering for a moment.

Song Shuhang took out his mobile phone and shook his head, saying, “There is no signal in my Inner World. It seems we’ll be able to contact the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group only after getting out of my Inner World and this forbidden area.”

“In that case, let’s head out,” Senior Sister Ye Si said. “That puppet strolling outside isn’t our match, and we can kill it. After that, we should make haste and look for a cultivation technique in this glacial world. I get the feeling that trouble will come our way if we delay any further.”

“Very well. Right, Ye Si, do you know any heating formation? If so, can you use it on me?” Song Shuhang added.

The glacial world outside was a place of extreme cold, and the cold there could directly affect the soul of cultivators. Given Song Shuhang’s current strength, both his body and soul would freeze within ten minutes if he didn’t have the protection of an expert. If there was a heating formation protecting him, perhaps he could resist the cold longer.

“I’m sorry, but the heating formations I know won’t be of any use in that glacial world,” Senior Sister Ye Si said. She was only at the Fifth Stage Realm, and the heating formations recorded in her life-bound golden book would be immediately destroyed by the cold there, losing their effect.

Song Shuhang clenched his teeth.

Soon afterwards, he issued a mental order, and left the Inner World.

As coincidence would have it…

When he got out of the Inner World, ahead, that puppet seemingly made of metal, but also not, and wood, but also not, happened to be searching the place where Song Shuhang appeared.

Song Shuhang and the puppet looked at each other.

Whenever enemies met each other, their eyes became red with fury.

“Song Shuhang!” the puppet shouted in a robotic voice, seemingly very angry.

“Brrr~ so cold.” Song Shuhang s.h.i.+vered. In this cold environment, his fighting capacity was greatly affected.

“Die!” the puppet howled. Although its movements had also been affected by the extreme cold, it didn’t have a body made of flesh, and couldn’t feel pain.

The puppet dashed forward, heading toward Song Shuhang. At the same time, nearly 30 sharp blades popped out of its body—it crisscrossed its hands, and its body turned into a ‘human blade’. After getting close to Song Shuhang, its also started spinning.

This move was somewhat similar to the signature move of sea urchin warriors, the Round Dance Chop.

Song Shuhang took out his treasured saber Broken Tyrant and activated the innate skill of his Eye Aperture—Expert Sight—trying to find a gap between the attacks of the puppet.

While the puppet was spinning and rolling toward him, Song Shuhang suddenly slashed! This slash aimed at the gaps between the attacks, and it would allow him to deflect the incoming attack of the puppet.

However, although Song Shuhang’s speed was high… someone turned out to be even faster than him. The virtuous lamia resurfaced behind Song Shuhang on her own initiative.

She was holding the blood bone in one hand and the Face Slapping Flip-flop in the other.

“Slap~” The Face Slapping Flip-flop entered into action, and accurately hit the face of the puppet after dodging the various blades.

The puppet was knocked away while still spinning, falling to the ground only after traveling quite some distance.

After falling to the ground, the body of the puppet kept rotating due to the inertia, leaving some fine marks in the layer of ice below. It looked quite cool.

After her previous evolution, the virtuous lamia had become even more proactive when it came to protecting her master, much better than any barrier or s.h.i.+eld.

“Slap, slap, slap~”

The Face Slapping Flip-flop entered into action again. This magical treasure for entertainment ma.s.s-produced in the White Cloud Academy was able to display astonis.h.i.+ng power in the hands of the virtuous lamia.

Earlier, the face of the puppet had been slapped until small cracks had appeared in it. Now, it got deformed even further. After getting slapped, the puppet rolled all over the ground. The quick attacks of the Face Slapping Flip-flop pinned the puppet to the ground, making it unable to get up. If this continued, it would get slapped to death in the hands of Song Shuhang’s lamia!

I’m going all out! the puppet roared inwardly.

At this time, Senior Sister Ye Si reminded, “Shuhang, quickly return to the Inner World.”

At the same time, Song Shuhang saw some light flash from the abdominal area of the puppet. Coupled with the scene from before, when that metallic puppet self-detonated, he knew that this puppet was going to do the same.

When that metallic puppet self-detonated earlier, it created a 12-meter-deep hole in the ice of this glacial world. Song Shuhang’s small body would be directly reduced to ashes if he got hit by that kind of explosion.

Thereupon, he issued a mental order, making the virtuous lamia take back the Face Slapping Flip-flop. Then, he disappeared under the unwilling gaze of the puppet.

Sure enough, that’s the power of s.p.a.ce. Does this Song Shuhang have a s.p.a.ce-type magical treasure with him that can allow him to teleport? Or is that White hiding somewhere close? The puppet was extremely unwilling to accept this outcome.

No wonder it couldn’t find the ‘ancestral puppet’ before. Its ancestral puppet had been probably teleported away, and was now in Song Shuhang’s hand.

“Boom~” The shock waves and the steam the explosion had produced covered the glacial world as the entire place shook.

Around fifteen breaths later.

Song Shuhang reappeared in the glacial world.
