Swoosh swoosh~
On the eleventh floor of the Haotian Tower, a black figure was constantly darting around the open space.
Countless puppets wanted to chase and kill but could only look and be deterred.
As he approached the entrance to the twelfth floor, the black figure stopped his steps and exclaimed, "Truly worthy of a top-grade Yellow Rank body technique. Even though it's only at Minor Achievement, no one in the Spirit Pill Realm can hope to catch me."
Chu Nan's face revealed a look of joy. The agile body technique was not only useful for escaping, but in battle, it could also avoid many dangers and deliver a fatal blow.
He slightly raised his head and looked towards the twelfth floor.
The twelfth floor was the last among the six floors of the Haotian Tower and was the most dangerous. At the same time, the opportunities were deeper.
According to the map, each time the twelfth floor of the Haotian Tower opens, a Puppet King appears.
The cultivation of that Puppet King reached the ninth pinnacle of the Spirit Pill, capable of splitting mountains and seas with a casual strike, with a body as sturdy as a Yang Wheel Realm demon beast!
It requires several true disciples to join forces to have a chance to slay it, and many true disciples who entered the Haotian Tower over the generations have died at its hands.
However, on the other hand, if one can slay the Puppet King, the benefits obtained are immensely enormous.
A top-grade Yellow Rank martial skill is a must, and there are other grades of cultivation techniques and martial skills, and even various high-grade spirit weapons.
"I now lack a sword that can bear the burden. I hope this Puppet King won't let me down." Chu Nan's eyes showed a hint of anticipation, and then he climbed up to the twelfth floor of the Haotian Tower along the steps.
After entering the twelfth floor, the world in front of him changed. Chu Nan glanced around and found that the twelfth floor was far less spacious than the eleventh floor below.
It was no more than a dozen miles, and with the vision of a Spirit Pill Realm Martial Artist, its entirety could be easily seen.
In the center was a massive, milky-white arena, surrounded by towering statues of martial artists that looked immensely grandiose.
Complex patterns were carved on the edge of the altar, their meaning hard to comprehend.
In the center of the arena sat a tall puppet.
That puppet appeared rusty, its body wrapped with willow branches, making it look all the more dilapidated.
However, what was awe-inspiring was its four sides of heads, with joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness all expressed differently, its four pairs of eyes exuding a chilling glare, inducing a cold feeling in one's heart.
Eight massive arms grew from its powerful torso, each hand gripping a different spirit weapon, each with a unique style.
Swords, spears, halberds, axes, scythes, hooks, and forks, all were present.
Anyone could guess that this puppet was undoubtedly the Puppet King of the twelfth floor, the greatest opportunity site of the first twelve floors of the Haotian Tower!
Regardless of whether it was to gain opportunities or to move towards the thirteenth floor, the Puppet King was an obstacle that could not be ignored.
After all, the entrance to the thirteenth floor only appears after the Puppet King is destroyed.
Outside the arena, over a dozen martial artists who ascended the twelfth floor surrounded it, their eyes full of seriousness and caution.
Chu Nan saw some familiar faces, making him even more cautious.
Lu Chi saw Chu Nan ascend to the twelfth floor and was first surprised, then killing intent appeared in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
The Puppet King was right in front of them, about to prepare for battle at any time.
And he was one of the main forces; if he were to hinder this major event because of killing Chu Nan, it would be an act of losing for small gains.
Zheng Yao stood beside Lu Chi with some helplessness. She had already shaken off Lu Chi, but since it was her first time entering the Haotian Tower, she didn't know she had to kill the Puppet King to enter the thirteenth floor.
As a result, Lu Chi entangled her again, with no way to escape.
Hiding in the shadows, seemingly merging with the shadow, Jia Yu gently licked the dagger in his hand, his gaze filled with killing intent as he occasionally hesitated.
He was considering whether to kill Chu Nan now or after killing the Puppet King.
Chu Nan paid no more attention to these people but turned his gaze to a white figure.
Number one on the True Disciple Ranking, Jiang Yixing!
Spirit Pill nine peak realm, the only disciple in the true disciple group who mastered Martial Intent.
His aura seemed even stronger than when he first entered the Haotian Tower, Chu Nan even felt this guy might break through to the Yang Wheel Realm at any moment.
"Facing such a top-tier Spirit Pill Martial Artist, even with the Roaming Dragon Shocking Wind Step, I may not be able to escape."
Chu Nan realized that Jiang Yixing was the only one in the entire Haotian Tower who could threaten his life.
A moment later, more true disciples arrived one after another, making a total of eighteen, including Chu Nan.
Among these eighteen true disciples, except for Chu Nan, who was at Spirit Pill eight, the rest were all mid to upper-level Spirit Pill nine.
Like Jiang Yixing, Jia Yu, Lu Chi, and Zheng Yao, all ranked in the top ten of the true disciples, were Spirit Pill nine peaks.
Such might could even potentially take down two or three new Yang Wheel Realm martial artists.
Yet facing that massive Puppet King, everyone remained gravely serious.
Perhaps Wan Qiang chose not to come to the twelfth floor because he didn't want to face the Puppet King.
When the number reached eighteen, Jiang Yixing slowly stood up and said in a non-negotiable, cold tone, "So many days have passed, and there are still those who haven't come up to the twelfth floor. It seems they are either dead or dare not come up."
"In that case, let us slay this Puppet King!"
As Jiang Yixing spoke, Jia Yu, Lu Chi, and others flashed with surprise; they knew the operation to encircle and kill the Puppet King was about to begin.
Chu Nan also drew his Red Peak Sword, ready to join the fight.
Jiang Yixing took out his spirit weapon, a water-blue long blade, emitting waves of sea-like energy.
All the true disciples formed a circle and slowly approached the Puppet King at the center of the arena.
When everyone stepped into the arena, the eyes of the slumbering Puppet King shot out a scarlet light.
Accompanied by a friction sound like bones cracking, the Puppet King slowly rose, standing tall at a height of fifteen meters!
It let out an ear-piercing roar, stirring up a wave of dust like ocean waves.
As the strongest in the field, Jiang Yixing naturally became the core of issuing commands without having to do much. He saw him holding the blade single-handedly, pointing at the Puppet King and yelling, "Kill!"
Everyone exchanged glances; to obtain real opportunities, to climb higher in the Haotian Tower, the Puppet King must die!
"Just a heap of scrap metal, let's kill it~"
The eyes of the eighteen true disciples flashed with cold light, and at the same time, they charged towards the Puppet King.
The Puppet King's strength reached the ninth pinnacle of Spirit Pill, with amazing defense, tirelessness, and seemingly endless power!
Seeing everyone charging, it showed no mercy, its eight arms swung simultaneously, different spirit weapons emitted dazzling light, with four faces locking onto all true disciples from four directions!
Eight arms chopped down simultaneously, raising terrifying rumbling like an earthquake. This strike had astonishing power, covering the entire arena, leaving almost no dead angle.
"Ah!"
"So strong!"
A few martial artists screamed, unable to even unleash their martial skills before being heavily injured by the Puppet King.
Chu Nan narrowly dodged with the help of the Roaming Dragon Shocking Wind Step, but still with lingering fear, said, "What a terrifying strike. If it hits my body, it wouldn't feel good."
Even though Chu Nan's side had more people, it seemed not so simple to kill this Puppet King!
