Jiu Muli's pupils constricted, she did not expect to see the legendary puppet here. Although she had heard of this before, she had never seen it before.    

    

Without any time to think, he dodged a punch and struck the puppet's chest with his palm!    

    

Clang!    

    

A palm landed on the puppet's chest, and a clear sound of metal colliding rang out. That wave of force even caused Jiu Muli's palm to feel a little numb.    

    

So hard!    

    

Jiu Muli's face sunk. In that palm strike just now, it was as if she had struck the hardest metal board, and was completely unable to deal with her opponent. For a moment, she couldn't help but feel a wave of fear, and what made her even more frustrated was that her spiritual energy was unable to penetrate through.    

    

The black puppet naturally did not care about Jiu Muli's thoughts. Jiu Muli's palm did not even stop him from moving, it followed up with another fist smashing towards Jiu Muli's head.    

    

"What the hell is this thing!"    

    

Jiu Muli's face became ugly. When fighting with a cultivator, the opponent would at least be afraid of getting hurt, but this puppet looked like it was invulnerable and it did not even try to defend itself.    

    

Bang!    

    

After blocking the puppet's fist once again, Jiu Muli did not continue attacking, but chose to fight. Fortunately, although the puppet's movement was agile, it was still lacking compared to Jiu Muli's, so he was not injured at all.    

    

However, the puppet could not do anything to Jiu Muli, and similarly, Jiu Muli could not do anything to the puppet.    

    

"What should we do?!"    

    

Time continued to pass by, Jiu Muli frowned, she was in a dilemma!    

    

The fist techniques of the puppet were profound, and it was unable to use any Star Soul s. With Jiu Muli's profound cultivation, he was actually unable to do anything to the puppet even after fighting it head on.    

    

As time slowly passed, she became anxious. What was even more terrifying was that even if she wanted to retreat, she couldn't. Even though the door behind her was wide open, a black screen of light blocked her path of retreat like an invisible wall.    

    

"No, I have to be calm!"    

    

Unable to leave, he could only defeat the puppet in front of him. In the end, Jiu Muli forced himself to calm down and started to deal with it.    

    

In the blink of an eye, an incense of time had passed. After repeated collisions, she could already feel the depletion of her spiritual energy.    

    

However, her consumption had not been for naught.    

    

"Is the weakness in my chest?"    

    

Her eyes lit up as she carefully observed the puppet. As time went on, she discovered that although the puppet's attack was extremely sharp and it did not fear death, it had the highest defense on the right side of the chest.    

    

Whether it was her fists or her feet, every time she attacked, the puppet would subconsciously seal off her right side and attack her chest.    

    

It was impossible to drive a puppet without needing a spiritual energy. Even if one did not want a spiritual energy, one should also need a Power of Star, or a core.    

    

This was the basic principle behind a puppet. Although Jiu Muli was not well-versed in it, he understood it clearly.    

    

"Looks like the core is over there, we just have to destroy it!"    

    

After observing for a long time and making up her mind, her body quickly flashed to the left side of the puppet and faced the punch from the opponent. Her shoulders sank and her body moved like a nimble snake, piercing through the other party's armpits and dodging behind the latter's back!    

    

At this moment, the puppet flew into the air, its foot like a whip as it lashed out at her!    

    

This was the moment!    

    

Jiu Muli's eyes lit up. With a wave of his hand, a palm blocked the opponent's leg, and just like before, Jiu Muli also hooked up with one leg, the tip of his foot aiming right into the opponent's chest!    

    

Pow!    

    

Accompanied by a clear and crisp sound, Jiu Muli felt as if his leg had kicked a groove, and following that, the puppet suddenly crashed onto the ground, motionless.    

    

"It's finally a success!"    

    

Jiu Muli heaved a sigh of relief, he was not used to fighting without the spiritual energy.    

    

With a total of three rooms in front of him, Jiu Muli walked towards the room to the right. Inside, there was only a stone platform, and there seemed to be a piece of paper placed on it.    

    

It was hard to tell what the material on the page was. It was similar to a piece of parchment, but it didn't give off a cold or poisonous feeling. On the contrary, it felt warm to the touch.    

    

The paper was clearly outlined by lines and curves, making it look like a mountain range. Occasionally, there were signs of a building, but other than that, there were no words written on them.    

    

The only thing that was worth Jiu Muli's attention was that there was a purple line that meandered through the entire parchment like a long dragon.    

    

"This is a map, and it's incomplete!"    

    

Jiu Muli frowned slightly. She could tell that this was an incomplete map, and the purple lines should have indicated a certain route, but other than these, there was nothing else on the entire piece of parchment.    

    

Putting the parchment back into the storage ring, she felt a little regretful. It had taken her half a day of hard work to get this fragment of the map.    

    

"Fortunately, I managed to obtain a fruit, otherwise, all my efforts would have been in vain."    

    

Jiu Muli was a little speechless, and slowly walked out of the secret room. This time, the barrier stopped him, as if it had never appeared before.    

    

The barrier!    

    

She was a little envious, there was actually someone who could lay down such a brilliant barrier, it made her heart burn a little.    

    

But the moment she took half a step out of the room, after thinking for a moment, she turned around again and kept the black puppet back into the storage ring without hesitation.    

    

"Heh, treat it as compensation!"    

    

She laughed inwardly. This puppet was not weak, it was comparable to a cultivator of the Star Spirit Stage. If it could be repaired properly, it would be the most suitable to come visit her house to protect it.    

    

When she stepped out of the room, she discovered that Dao Chen and the other two who were initially busy snatching things were inside the hall.    

    

Dao Chen was alone, facing off against Qingfeng, both of them being on guard against each other, while Meng Ke'er, who was standing at Dao Chen's side, seemed to have sealed the hall's exit.    

    

However, Jiu Muli also noticed that other than the three stone door s that had opened their holes behind her, there were still two other stone door that were still tightly closed.    

    

"What's going on?"    

    

Jiu Muli asked Dao Chen, why did he not snatch the remaining two stone door and instead chose to confront with each other.    

    

"What else can happen? He's just trying to kill someone for their treasure." Dao Chen's gaze was ice-cold.    

    

"Isn't there two more rooms?"    

    

Jiu Muli was speechless, wasn't it a little too early to be trying to reverse the situation?    

    

"Those two rooms are empty."    

    

Dao Chen sighed.    

    

So that's how it is. No wonder they fell out so early on.    

    

"Cut the crap. Hand over both of your storage ring Finger." Meng Ke'er's face was cold, his eyes filled with killing intent.    

    

Qingfeng also nodded and said, "You two, I apologize."    

    

At this time, why are you still pretending to be a good person!    

    

Jiu Muli's gaze turned cold as he said in a cold voice, "It seems that you really think we're meat on the chopping block."    

    

"Don't tell me you still dare to attack!" Meng Ke'er was disdainful.    

    

In that moment, she felt that Qing Feng's gaze towards Jiu Muli was strange, she was extremely jealous.    

    

"That will depend on whether you have the ability or not!"    

    

The corner of Jiu Muli's mouth curled up, he took a step forward, and the aura of his entire body surged.    

    

"How dare you!"    

    

Meng Ke'er's killing intent rose sharply, without thinking, a sword light flashed, and like a clear sword light cut through the air, aimed straight for Jiu Muli's neck!    

    

Take the initiative!    

    

At this moment, Meng Ke'er revealed his intentions without hesitation.
