The art of puppetry was one of the hundred arts of immortal cultivation.
Alchemy, artifact forging, talisman making, formations, puppetry...
Among the so-called hundred arts of cultivation, practicing any of them to its absolute peak would pave a grand avenue to the heavens.
Chen Changsheng was also proficient in formations. The defensive grand formation in the Chen family's backyard, capable of resisting Golden Core cultivators, was his own masterpiece.
If it were solely based on attainments in the dao of formations, he believed he could rank among the very best in the Great Yan Kingdom.
However, it had only reached the Golden Core level.
This was also the ceiling for most practitioners of the hundred cultivation arts in the Great Yan Kingdom.
After all, in a country where even Nascent Soul cultivators were few and far between, it was entirely impossible for someone to master Nascent Soul-level cultivation arts.
Anyone with that kind of skill wouldn't stay in the Great Yan Kingdom anyway.
But right now, looking at the puppet tiger before him, Chen Changsheng could sense a power no weaker than his own.
Obviously, Mu Qingling hadn't lied to him. The puppet within these ruins truly had reached the Nascent Soul level.
Moreover, it was a Nascent Soul level that he currently could not handle.
There was no helping it. Currently possessing neither Nascent Soul-level cultivation techniques nor Nascent Soul-level secret arts, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call Chen Changsheng the weakest Nascent Soul cultivator.
Therefore, after observing the giant tiger puppet from afar for a long time, Chen Changsheng didn't immediately step forward.
He first carefully explored everywhere else except the ruins guarded by the giant tiger puppet. Only after disappointingly finding nothing of value did he turn his gaze back to the ruins the puppet was guarding.
Those ruins must have once been an extremely important place for the Joyous Union Sect here.
And for a sect, a place worthy of being guarded by a Nascent Soul-level puppet would be nothing other than a scripture pavilion or a treasure pavilion.
Chen Changsheng examined the large number of skeletal remains next to the giant tiger puppet for a while. He noticed that although the corpses had completely turned into dry bones, a large number of storage rings and storage bags could still be found.
That alone was enough for him to take the risk.
"Looks like a battle is unavoidable. Facing the Nascent Soul stage for the first time, even if it's just a puppet, makes me a bit nervous indeed."
Chen Changsheng muttered to himself, then directly summoned a quaint black gourd from his dantian.
His intrinsic magical treasure, the supreme-grade magical treasure, the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd.
This was his strongest method right now, and the one he was confident could harm a Nascent Soul expert.
After over a hundred years of nurturing, the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd contained ten thousand divine swords no weaker than magical treasures. Coupled with his primary Golden Core-level secret art, Myriad Swords Returning to the Origin, it could unleash an attack equivalent to ten thousand peak Golden Core experts joining forces to set up a sword formation.
However, since the divine swords were condensed by the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd itself, every time all the divine swords were fully unleashed, the gourd would require a considerable amount of time to regain its combat power. Thus, it had always been treated as Chen Changsheng's trump card, not to be used casually.
But this time it concerned his future, so he had no choice but to use his final trump card.
Driven by Chen Changsheng, the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd floated above his head. The originally quaint gourd body now radiated a massive amount of divine light, as if endless divine swords would burst forth from within at any moment.
After preparing all this, Chen Changsheng finally stepped toward the giant tiger puppet.
He approached step by step. When he was less than ten zhang away, the giant tiger puppet, which had been lying on the bones, slowly rose to its feet.
"It really can still move, huh?"
Chen Changsheng sighed softly, then activated the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd without hesitation.
As the gourd body shook, ten thousand divine swords radiating white light instantly unsheathed, charging toward the giant tiger puppet together like an ocean of swords.
"Roar!!!"
Seeing this, the giant tiger puppet actually let out a roar like a real fierce tiger, echoing endlessly throughout the entire secret realm.
"Oh no! This puppet actually has Nascent Soul-level formations carved into it!"
Chen Changsheng, already proficient in formations, immediately noticed that along with the giant tiger puppet's roar, several extremely profound formations were activated on its body.
This roar was the effect of one of those formations.
Chen Changsheng felt his mind go completely blank.
At the same time, the massive amount of divine swords that were striking toward the giant tiger puppet shattered layer by layer, with more than half crumbling before even touching the puppet.
A miscalculation!
Chen Changsheng felt bitter in his heart and prepared to recall the Myriad Transformations Sword Gourd to temporarily avoid its sharp edge.
But the next moment, a flash of inspiration seemed to cross his mind. Looking at the giant tiger puppet's massive body, he directly dashed forward in a single bound.
The two were only ten zhang apart to begin with, which for Chen Changsheng was merely an instant.
The next moment, Chen Changsheng touched the giant tiger puppet's claw.
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique has sent a red envelope, everyone come and grab it!]
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique: Absolutely do not grab it! Inside the red envelope is a Tier 3 puppet! It's currently going berserk!]
Yes, Chen Changsheng suddenly thought that this chat group seemed capable of directly sending whatever he touched as a red envelope.
Although he didn't know if he could send living creatures, this giant tiger puppet clearly couldn't be considered a living creature; at most, it had a bit of sentience.
Sure enough, when Chen Changsheng touched the giant tiger puppet and connected to the chat group to treat it as a red envelope, the chat group directly packaged and absorbed the giant tiger puppet away.
"I wonder if living creatures can be sent. If so, then this red envelope function can truly be considered the ultimate sealing technique."
Chen Changsheng muttered softly.
Meanwhile, inside the chat group, things had already blown up.
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Thank goodness! Thank goodness I didn't grab it immediately!]
[Kashiwagi Eri: I was just about to claim the red envelope too. If I really brought out that Tier 3 puppet, wouldn't my planet plunge into an apocalypse?]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Obviously, yes.]
[Yunlan Sect Master: There's actually such a maneuver? Directly sending a strong enemy to the chat group as a red envelope? I've learned something new today.]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Sister Yun Yun! Please don't learn this kind of thing!]
Gu Xiaoxiao was scared half to death by Yun Yun's words.
You have to know, she was the most active red envelope grabber in the group. If one day Yun Yun sent a red envelope and she subconsciously grabbed it, only for some cackling monster to pop out, she would truly break down.
[Yunlan Sect Master: Relax, before I send this kind of red envelope, I will definitely notify everyone.]
[Martial Arts King has claimed the red envelope, obtained: Enraged Tier 3 Puppet * 1]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: ...]
[Kashiwagi Eri: ...]
[Yunlan Sect Master: ...]
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique: ...]
[Empire's Strongest Female General: What a pity, she beat me to it.]
[Stumbled Into High-Tier Lobby: Hey, don't rush to grab this kind of thing!]
Chen Changsheng watched everything being sent in the chat group and his mouth twitched, while at the same time gaining a deeper impression of Luo Hao.
Should he say as expected of a Godslayer? Her belligerent attribute was truly maxed out.
Her compatibility with an immortal cultivator like him, who only sought stability, was truly as poor as it could get.
However, Chen Changsheng was not too worried about Luo Hao's safety. After all, she was a God Slayer who wielded the authorities of multiple deities. Furthermore, having cultivated at the Third Tier for two hundred years, there was no way she would be unable to defeat a mere Third Tier puppet.

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!
