Chapter 290 Battle Situation
"Judging by the time, it should be within the next few days. After all, we had already discussed it with the various Golden Core cultivators outside. The opening of the ruins would last for a month. Since you have already discussed it with the sect leader, I will temporarily acknowledge you as my master. You can focus on healing your injuries for now."
The Spirit Puppet Transformation Box waved its hand, and the two immediately moved to a secret room.
It continued, "I'll go pack my things first. Also, stop calling me 'senior' all the time. Just call me Puppet Master. After all, you're practically a disciple of the Spirit Puppet Sect."
"Yes... Elder Kui..." Zhang Lingyu responded, and the former's figure immediately disappeared.
-----------------
Somewhere in the Spirit Puppet Palace.
Song Siyu and the other Jade Light Pavilion cultivators were rushing towards the main hall at top speed. It had been almost a day since they entered the hall, and even with a map in hand, they still couldn't find the location of the main hall.
Not only them, but everyone else was the same. The Spirit Puppet Palace wasn't very big; you could walk around it in half an hour.
They searched the place thoroughly, inside and out, but found no trace of it.
Without a doubt, it must be the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box causing this trouble.
Besides this anomaly, they also discovered that during the struggle for various items in the side halls, ten cultivators never showed up from beginning to end, and they didn't even have the chance to encounter them in other places.
It was as if it had evaporated into thin air.
After these chosen ones discussed the matter together, they discovered that the ten missing people were all from the three winners of their respective small worlds, and all of them were rogue cultivators.
Based on the fact that the main hall could not be found, it was deduced that these ten people must have been transported into the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box.
As for the reason for doing this, it's probably to select a successor from among them.
This infuriated the group of prodigies. In terms of talent and background, how could they be inferior to those rogue cultivators?
Of course, they weren't too interested in the so-called inheritance. The main reason was that the winner would not only receive a lot of resources, but would also be regarded as the master of the Spirit Puppet Myriad Transformations Box.
A natal magic treasure left behind by a Nascent Soul cultivator is coveted even by Golden Core cultivators, let alone them.
"Two days have passed, I wonder how things are in the main hall?" The battles in the four side halls have come to an end, and each side has gained something.
As a disciple of Bai Yan Zhenren, Song Siyu is a well-known figure among the younger generation in Zhao Kingdom. She has a Golden Core Pill and a low-grade Golden Core magic weapon stored in the South Hall.
While all the cultivators rushed to the nearest side hall, only she quickly found this place using the map given to her by Zhang Lingyu. Before they could react, she easily captured them.
By the time the other cultivators hurriedly arrived at the empty side hall, she had already run far away.
After she wiped out the Southern Palace, the competition for the remaining three palaces intensified, especially in the Eastern Palace, where cultivators from the Blazing Sun Palace, Azure Serpent Fortress, and Moonflower Palace all perished.
Since she had already gotten what she wanted, there was no need for her to get involved in this matter so desperately. At most, she would just put on a show and then pretend to regret it afterwards.
After a day of fierce fighting, the two Golden Cores fell into the hands of herself and a cultivator from the Dust Cloud Sect of the Yue Kingdom, who was also a major participant in the killing of the three cultivators from the Blazing Sun Prefecture.
This person was unremarkable in appearance, but when the fight broke out, they were all taken aback. He was a cultivator who cultivated both physical and magical techniques, and even practiced swordsmanship. His Five Qi Converging Seal of the Dust Cloud Sect was enough to suppress a late Foundation Establishment cultivator with a single palm strike.
His strength is so great that even Song Siyu wouldn't be confident of winning against him.

The key point is that even after fighting to the very end, they still couldn't figure out the person's identity. They could only confirm that he was a cultivator from the Chenyun Sect. It should be noted that the Chenyun Sect was located in the Yue Kingdom, which bordered the Zhao Kingdom. They had heard of the sect's most outstanding talents and had even seen portraits of each of them.
Foundation Establishment cultivators possess the ability to remember everything they see, yet the cultivators of the Six Sects had absolutely no record of this person.
Either this person is disguising their identity, or they are a dark horse that has suddenly emerged from obscurity.
Regardless, they will be placed under close surveillance once they are released.
The remaining four Core Formation spiritual items were obtained by the dark horse of the Dust Cloud Sect, Yan Shuo of the Blazing Sun Prefecture, Xie Changgeng of the Green Serpent Fortress, and Yu Xizhi of the Profound Light Sect, respectively.
Besides the two Golden Core cultivators and four Golden Core spiritual items, the four side halls also contained six low-grade Golden Core magic treasures, more than ten fifth-order talismans, and more than ten bottles of pills for Golden Core cultivators. Apart from the few who had perished, almost everyone managed to snatch some of these items.
In general, everyone gained something, but it still couldn't compare to the precious Golden Core. Afterwards, the cultivators searched for the missing Golden Core, but unfortunately, none of those present were easy to deal with, and if they were to cause trouble, it would lead to chaos again.
At that point, not only will we not be able to find the Golden Core, but we'll also have to return what we've already obtained.
So after a little consideration, they set their sights on the 'disappeared' main hall.
"I wonder how Fellow Daoist Zhang is doing." Song Siyu was very concerned about Zhang Lingyu's situation. After all, she was able to obtain that Golden Core Pill and a magic treasure thanks to the map that the former had given her.
Unfortunately, they couldn't find the main hall and had no idea about the person's current situation.
But one thing she was certain of was that the other party had not perished.
The two signed a Netherworld Blood Pact, which stipulated that they must work together in the Spirit Puppet Palace and must not harm each other.
If she secretly harbors a slight murderous intent towards him, her spiritual platform will frantically issue a warning. As long as Zhang Lingyu dies, the blood pact will automatically dissolve, and no matter how much she wants to kill him, the will of Heaven will not issue a warning.
"Indeed, Fellow Daoist Zhang's methods are remarkable. Even some of the direct disciples of the six sects might not be able to kill him, let alone a rogue cultivator."
Even if they didn't receive the inheritance, they should still have a way to escape.
Her idea was good, but she overlooked one thing: even if they could leave, the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box might not let them go.
While she was thinking, Song Siyu had unknowingly flown to the location of the main hall marked on the map. She thought it was still a dead end, but she was startled by the words of her fellow disciple and quickly looked up.
"Senior Sister Song, this door wasn't here the last few times we passed by. It seems the main hall is behind this door!"
The woman looked at the intricately patterned palace gate in front of her and immediately understood.
The main hall now signifies the end of the battle between Zhang Lingyu and the other ten people. The successor has been chosen by the Spirit Puppet Transformation Box, so there isn't much time left before the ruins close.
"Let's go in and take a look first!"
Having made up their minds, the three immediately pushed open the palace door, only to find not the dilapidated scene they had imagined, but rather a completely undamaged place.
Everything in the hall was arranged in an orderly manner, and in the center there were even several jade boxes, seemingly waiting for a destined person to take them away.
"Since Fellow Daoist Zhang and the others aren't in the main hall, where did everyone else go?!"
The two people other than Song Siyu were very excited and were about to go forward to take it, but they stopped abruptly and turned back after taking just one step.
There was no other reason than that more than a dozen powerful auras were rapidly approaching from outside the hall.
Without a doubt, others must be arriving here.
Song Siyu rubbed her head and sighed, "Another fierce battle is about to begin."
