The Black Flame Monstrous Wolf and the Black Gold Puppet fought ferociously. A ball of black flame shot out from the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf. The black light brightened and then dimmed, sometimes even twisting out of shape. Surrounding the ball of black flame was a layer of flashing red light. The red light was obviously powerful but could not enter the middle of the ball of black flame.
In the end, the red light completely disappeared. The Fiery Red Jade Ruler rebounded and flew back into the Black Gold Puppet’s hand.
The black light enveloping the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf gradually disappeared. As the light dissipated, the enormous black wolf reappeared. Even though there were not many wounds on its body, its aura was extremely weak. Its previously strong and handsome appearance was completely altered.
The Black Flame Monstrous Wolf was a remarkable creature. It had the bloodline of the Dark Night Monstrous Wolf and it had possessed its own inherent abilities from the moment it was born. It had used these abilities to block the attack from the Fiery Red Jade Ruler.
However, the Black Gold Puppet was extremely powerful now. Its casual strike was not something even a monstrous beast at the peak of the seventh rank—not even the Black Flame Monstrous Beast with all of its amazing talent—could block.


Even though the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf did not instantly die at the hands of the Black Gold Puppet, it was on the verge of death. It had expended too much of its inherent skills and had used almost all the power in its veins. Under usual circumstances, it would need several decades to recover.
There was a howl and the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf fled with its tail between its legs. It did not dare to even glance at Mo Wen again.
Mo Wen smirked. The Black Gold Puppet standing in front of him suddenly flickered. Then, the dark mountain peak below its hand suddenly shone brightly, transforming into grey light which appeared in the air. The light grew even brighter and the peak grew to a hundred meters tall, covering a radius of several hundred square meters.
The dark mountain peak released a terrifying aura. It was thick and solid. It was as if there was really a mountain peak pressing down from above. The air around it was twisted slightly.
If Mo Wen had used this upper-grade spiritual weapon, it would not be possible to unleash such terrifying power. In his hands, a profound level weapon would not be able to either. However, the Black Gold Puppet had done it easily.
Roar Roar!
The Black Flame Monstrous Wolf was extremely surprised. It kept howling, its cry low and sad. It frantically ran but was unable to escape from the area that the dark mountain peak was overshadowing. A grey light descended and pinned the extremely powerful Black Flame Monstrous Wolf on the spot.
The dark mountain landed forcefully on the ground. The earth shook violently. The Black Flame Monstrous Wolf shook fiercely before it fell to the ground, dead.
The dark mountain peak shrunk and the grey light retracted, returning to the Black Gold Puppet’s hand.
Hou Jingfeng, who was not far away, took a deep breath. He subconsciously took a step back. He had sensed a destructive aura from the terrifying Black Gold Puppet. It would definitely be easy for the Black Gold Puppet to kill him if it wanted to.



What is that thing?
Hou Jingfeng was so frightened that he had turned a little pale. There was a hint of fear in his eyes. He sensed a terrifying aura coming from the Black Gold Puppet that normally only a martial arts grandmaster would possess. The threat that it posed was even higher than that of an ordinary martial arts grandmaster.
Hou Jingfeng had not expected Mo Wen to have such an abnormally strong puppet. Could it be the legendary immortal cultivation world puppet?
As the genius disciple of the Ming Temple, Hou Jingfeng’s knowledge of the immortal cultivation world was naturally beyond that of ordinary youths. Compared to him, even some seniors from some smaller inner worlds were lacking in knowledge. He knew that the immortal cultivation world had puppets and had even seen a model of one. However, he had never seen a real puppet before. After all, even in the immortal cultivation world, it was rare for puppet masters to make puppets.
After killing the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf, Mo Wen glanced at its corpse and sighed. He really wanted to store the corpse in his medicine spiritual ring and would have done so if he had not been standing in the middle of the square.
The body of a monstrous beast at the peak of the seventh rank was very, very valuable. It could be said that the body was filled with treasures from head to toe.
However, the medicine spiritual ring was as valuable as the dead wolf and Mo Wen knew he could not reveal its existence. Otherwise, it was unlikely that he would be able to leave this place alive.
The Black Gold Puppet was suspended in mid-air. Mo Wen waved his hand, causing the puppet to shine with black light and then shrink. It fell into Mo Wen’s hand like a golden doll.
Hou Jingfeng’s pupils shrank. It was indeed an immortal cultivation world’s puppet. It was the legendary puppet doll!
Who exactly was this youth? He had profound level weapons and a puppet doll from the immortal cultivation world. Why did he have so many treasures? Even Hou Jingfeng, of the great Ming Temple of the Floating Mystery Dimension, felt shocked.
All this while, Hou Jingfeng had felt a natural sense of superiority wherever he went. There were not many of his caliber among the younger generation. Furthermore, he had the support of the famous Ming Temple. He was superior to most in terms of background, talent, and wealth.


However, standing in front of Mo Wen right now, he felt like a country bumpkin and did not feel superior at all.

How can he have so many valuable treasures?

Hou Jingfeng could not get his head around it and his gaze grew darker and darker. He looked at Mo Wen with eyes filled with greed. He wanted to kill him on the spot and take all his treasures for himself.
Mo Wen’s intuition was extremely sharp. He immediately sensed the shift in Hou Jingfeng’s emotions, even from a distance.

Do you want to die?
Mo Wen slowly turned around and smirked at Hou Jingfeng. Hou Jingfeng could not hide the greed in his eyes. The young man was indeed talented, but the desire and possessiveness he had were too strong. A person like that would make mistakes easily.
Mo Wen did not seem to be in a combative mood now and was very calm and composed. However, Hou Jingfeng still took a step back in fright. He looked at Mo Wen warily. The power that the Black Gold Puppet had unleashed earlier could kill him easily.
Hou Jingfeng was no longer as arrogant and proud as he had been earlier. He did not make any comments before turning around and fleeing. He ran towards the powerhouse of the Ming Temple. He was really afraid that Mo Wen would, in his anger, order the Black Gold Puppet to kill him.

Useless.
Mo Wen glanced at Hou Jingfeng with a hint of disdain in his eyes. Even though he had not spoken loudly, his words floated over to Hou Jingfeng.
Hou Jingfeng’s body shook and his expression darkened drastically. His eyes were filled with venomous hatred. However, he gritted his teeth and did not stop. He knew that Mo Wen, with the Black Gold Puppet in his hands, could kill him easily. Without the protection of the powerhouses from the Ming Temple, he could very possibly die at the hands of this youth.
No sensible person would stay in a dangerous situation. One day, when he had the ability, he would make the youths’ life worse than death. He would take pleasure in making him kneel before him and kowtow, begging for forgiveness.


Mo Wen had been able to kill the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf so casually, causing the monstrous beasts around him who had discovered him to all feel afraid. Not a single beast dared to come forth and stop him. Even when Mo Wen walked past them, they all looked as if they wanted to stay far away from him.
The power of the Black Gold Puppet had evidently scared many monstrous beasts. After all, the Black Flame Monstrous Wolf was a beast second only to the beast kings in the Fire Domain. No one except the beast kings would dare to approach Mo Wen.
The path before Mo Wen cleared and he traveled through the square with ease. Not a single monstrous beast dared to stop him.
In a matter of mere moments, Mo Wen arrived before the Fighting Spirit Tower and stopped several hundred meters away. The Fighting Spirit Tower was the most dangerous area in the entire square right now. It was the center of the fight between the Peacock Beast King and the seven major martial arts grandmasters. The rippling effects of their attacks were sufficient to kill a warrior at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. Even though the Peacock Beast King was too preoccupied right now to worry about other warriors, those who wish to enter the Fighting Spirit Tower had to be able to rely on their own abilities.
Mo Wen came to a halt near to the spot where some other human warriors were watching the situation at the Fighting Spirit Tower from a safe distance. The area they were in was the closest to the Fighting Spirit Tower with the least effects from the ripples of the fight.
Those human warriors who had managed to fight through the beasts were staying there to watch the battle near the Fighting Spirit Tower. Someone would try to enter the tower once there was an opportunity.

Elder Wang Wu from the Huajian Sect had failed to enter the tower earlier. It is such a pity to lose a powerhouse at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm.


He’s already the third. They all failed. The Peacock Beast King is really powerful. It has been able to kill those trying to enter the tower even when it is being attacked by the seven major martial arts grandmasters.

How about we all enter together. Even if the Peacock Beast King tries to stop us, it won’t be able to prevent all of us from gaining access. There will be someone who succeeds.


We mustn’t. The Peacock Beast King is a beast that has the bloodline of the ancient colored peacock. It is very powerful and its inherent abilities are also extremely strong. If we force it to its limit when we try to enter the tower together, it might try to attack all of us in a last-ditch attempt without any consideration for its own life. I fear every one of us will die together with it.



There were quite a few people gathered at the spot. Some of the people who knew each other stood together and discussed the matter. As they were very close to the battle among the Peacock Beast King and the seven major martial arts grandmasters, the other monstrous beasts did not dare to approach. As such, the human warriors were not attacked by any other monstrous beasts.
Mo Wen stood alone below a stone tablet. He did not team up with anyone else and only glanced at those around him. There were more than ten people here and they were from many different sects. There was a person he felt was familiar. It was an elder of the Gao Clan whom he had met earlier at the sea of lava.
After making the stone tablet his shield, Mo Wen sat down cross-legged on the ground in order to heal his Inner Qi so that he could maintain his peak status. However, he kept his eyes on the battle among the Peacock Beast King and the seven major martial arts grandmasters, watching for an opportunity to enter the Fighting Spirit Tower.
Actually, many warriors knew that they were entering the Fighting Spirit Tower not just for the spiritual fire. They also wanted to enter the Fighting Spirit Tower simply for the sake of doing so. Even in ancient times, the tower was the place immortal cultivators most wanted to enter.
