24 Chapter 24 Eighteen Puppets (1/2)

The moment his voice hit them, the entire drill field went silent. Not only were Yin Yang and Chuxue stunned, the group of teen cultivators at the gate were totally quiet. Even Liang Miaozi was astonished.

After a short while, huge laughter broke out. An image rose into the air and landed on the Sky Sword Platform. It was the surnamed Lin person who Huang Yi called Senior Grandmaster. He laughed tat Zong Shou, ”Although you aren't big in size, your words are big, interesting. However since you know our sect rules, you should also know that if you enter the Sky Sword Platform, the sect won't be blamed for your life or death. You must survive a hundred breaths without using any true qi or spiritual method.”

Zong Shou barely nodded, his hand wielding the Pine Pattern Wind Sword. He showed no hesitation, slowly walking towards the center of the formation, ”No need for bullshit, I am naturally clear about your Lingyun Sect rules!”

How could he not know? After learning about the Sky Sword and Heaven Talisman in his last life, he purposely created a character to challenge it every day!

Others might fear and avoid this stone platform, but he treated the Heaven Sword Formation and those set of talisman patterns as the grinding stone for his own sword techniques and talisman drawing techniques.

He remembered that he spent a total of 2,372 attempts; an entire year, days and nights.

When this small formation was finally broken, his sword skills had reached the big success stage. In a short three years, Sword Emperor Dan Qiu was born in the game of God Emperor!

When the old man heard that, he wasn't angry and nodded, ”Good that you know! Since the the Desolate Era ended, a total of thirteen thousand and seven hundred people have come to challenge this Small Heaven Sword Formation. From Xuanwu ancestors to initial stage Martial Warriors, none of them have won. Close to three thousand people have died on this platform. Recently, fewer and fewer people have came to challenge it. I have only seen three people these last four hundred years. Although you are dual meridians and unable to cultivate, being able to step on this stage, your courage is commendable…”

Chuxue, who was beneath the platform, was shocked. She wanted to go forwards, but Yin Yang stopped her, ”Don't worry, Xue'er. Yyou have seen the prince's sword skills. They aren't normal, it shouldn't be tough to last for a hundred breaths.”

Chuxue relaxed slightly, but when she turned to look at him, she saw Yin Yang's expression, which was really solemn and filled with worry.

Liang Miaozi not far away even gave a scoff of contempt. ”Challenge the Small Heaven Sword Formation? He really doesn't know his place!”

Lin Fei had just gotten halfway into his speech and noticed the impatience on Zong Shou's face, making him smile awkwardly. He threw out a talisman, which turned into eighteen spiritual lights, entering the bodies of the human-sized puppets.

A red glow appeared in the eyes of the eighteen puppets. Creaks sounded out from their joints, like when rusty machines were being activated once more after hundreds or thousands of years.

Zong Shou had stepped to the center of the platform, his long sword at an angle. The game creator of God Emperor had perfectly recreated this sword formation into the virtual world, even making it better than this. The real Heaven Sword Formation and the replica in the game would still be a little different. Being used to all sorts of false advertising in his era, Zong Shou wasn't surprised.

Who knew whether he would be able to take it on?

Those puppets started to loosen themselves up until all the cracking noises of the joints disappeared. All of them suddenly stepped forwards in unison and gave out a ”Hua!” shriek.

They took a few consecutive steps and drew closer. Their bright swords shone coldly in the sunlight.

Zong Shou smiled, taking three steps to the left. He saw the puppets shift their positions accordingly. Each action, each step, all of them were standard textbook and really precise. Nine long swords stabbed towards him from all directions.

Even when he had seen this several times in his last life, he couldn't help but exclaim, as there wasn't a weakness in all this.

This sword formation was indeed exquisite and first rate. Eighteen sword puppets looking out for one another, their cooperation with one another was also flawless.

If live people used it, maybe it would be even more powerful, but it wouldn't be as flawless, with no weakness like this was.
