I wield power with my innate talents, and forge the Heavenly Court.

Hearing the commotion coming from the direction of the martial arts arena, the Huashan Sect Leader gave himself a pep talk and finally gritted his teeth and made his decision.

"Um
Let's go take a look!

Even if it is truly strange, he needs to investigate it thoroughly.

After all, this is the headquarters of the Huashan Sect.

If there is any real danger or strangeness, then they should consider relocating.

"Sect Leader."

"Master."

After hearing the words of the Huashan Sect Leader, the Huashan disciples were slightly surprised.

"Sigh~, this is the Huashan base!"

Looking at his disciples, the head of the Huashan Sect couldn't help but sigh and say something.

Upon hearing this, many disciples of Mount Hua fell silent.

They naturally understood what the sect leader meant.

Therefore, although everyone was unwilling, they had no choice but to return to the training ground with the Huashan Sect Leader.

The master and his disciples quietly returned to the training ground. Listening to the creaking and rattling sounds inside, their hearts pounded wildly in their throats.

Endless negative spiritual forces arose and surged into the training ground.

The wooden dummy figures twisted even more violently.

"Kaka!"

With a series of clicking sounds, the wooden dummy that was originally fixed to the ground slowly turned its body to face the direction of the training ground gate, as if it were observing something.

"Hoohoo!"

The members of the Huashan Sect secretly took a deep breath and cautiously peered into the training ground.

In an instant, everyone froze on the spot.

The wooden dummy figures, facing the gate, swayed their arms and legs, appearing like human figures peering at them.

"Weird, very weird!"

Someone couldn't help but gasp softly.

The sound wasn't loud, but it startled the wooden dummy.

"click"

"Squeak, squeak"

In an instant, all the wooden dummy dummies turned around and returned to their original positions.

"Eh~?"

Upon seeing this, the head of the Huashan Sect couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised.

Don't these monsters quickly swarm around humans and try to kill them as soon as they discover them?

Why do the wooden dummy in front of them seem to be more afraid of them?
At that moment, the fear in the heart of the Huashan Sect Leader dissipated slightly.

Thinking back to before, it seems that it was right after he appeared that the wooden dummy returned to its original state.

Could it be that these wooden dummy figures are too weak, so they are afraid of humans instead?

No, no, that can't be the reason.

Hmm, could it be because they are wooden dummy dummies?

After pondering for a long time, the head of the Huashan Sect decided to go in and take a look.

"You all wait here, I'll go inside and check things out."

"Master, isn't this too dangerous?"

"It's alright. These wooden dummy figures seem a bit different from the usual eerie ones."

"Then Master, may I..."

"Alright, with your meager internal strength, if there were truly something strange, you wouldn't even be able to escape."

As he spoke, the Huashan Sect Leader gave the others no chance to react and stepped directly into the training ground.

Seeing that the incident had already occurred, the group of Huashan disciples could only hide themselves again, watching the Huashan Sect Leader enter the training ground with tension and worry.

Meanwhile, the Huashan Sect Leader, upon entering the training ground, immediately began circulating his Huashan internal energy, enveloping every part of his body, and slowly approached the nearest wooden dummy.

He might not have been able to do these things before.

More than a decade ago, the world seemed to have changed, and cultivation suddenly became easier.

Internal energy, which could only circulate within the meridians or amplify physical speed and strength, can now spread throughout the entire body and even be released directly for attacks.

After more than a decade of cultivation, the Huashan Sect Leader has made considerable progress in internal energy, although he has not yet reached the point of being able to project his internal energy outwards and directly use it for attacks.

However, covering the whole body and protecting the entire body is no problem.

Upon approaching, the Huashan Sect Leader felt a chilling aura permeating the area around the wooden dummy.

I cautiously extended my palm and lightly touched the wooden dummy, feeling a chilling sensation.

However, apart from that, there were no other changes.

And given his current level of internal strength, it can be completely ignored.

"Um"

The Huashan Sect Leader pondered for a moment, then suddenly assumed a fighting stance and performed a set of Huashan boxing techniques against the wooden dummy.

"Bang bang bang."

"Hey ha."

Originally, the Huashan Sect Leader was just testing the waters.

However, as he practiced his boxing techniques, he unknowingly became engrossed in them.

He unleashed one after another the profound techniques and secrets of boxing, and flashes of inspiration burst forth in his mind.

Unbeknownst to him, the Huashan boxing technique, which he had already mastered to an extreme degree, was deduced by him to have new techniques and become even more perfect.

After a long while, the Huashan Fist technique was performed again and again until it made no further progress. Only then did the Huashan Sect Leader slowly stop and suddenly come back to his senses.

However, even though he had stopped and regained his senses, he was still savoring the state he had just been in.

He even wanted to make another move and use all the boxing and martial arts techniques he knew on the wooden dummy in front of him.

However, after moving his hand, the Huashan Sect Leader thought of his disciples outside the training ground and finally took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to continue practicing. He then turned and walked out of the training ground.

After moving a few meters away from the wooden dummy, the Huashan Sect Leader was suddenly startled, his steps faltered slightly, and his breathing became erratic.

What was wrong with him just now? How could he be so bewitched as to think of using martial arts on that strange wooden dummy?

Unconsciously, a thin layer of sweat seeped out from the forehead of the Huashan Sect Leader.

However, thinking back to his state just now, which was like an epiphany, he couldn't help but yearn for it.

After taking several deep breaths, the Huashan Sect Leader finally calmed his thoughts and began to carefully sense the changes within himself.

He did gain new insights into Huashan boxing.

However, at the same time, his body was also eroded by a certain amount of strange energy. About one-tenth of the internal energy in his dantian was lost, and some black strange energy became entangled in it.

Upon sensing these things, the Huashan Sect Leader's expression changed.

Fortunately, he then felt that the strange energy that had invaded his body was being expelled little by little as his internal energy circulated.

The Huashan Sect Leader's expression changed repeatedly, but he ultimately decided to wait for a while to see if there were any other developments.

The Huashan Sect Leader turned back once more, taking a deep look at the wooden dummy in the training ground before quickly leaving. Facing his worried disciples, the Huashan Sect Leader spoke in as calm a tone as possible:

"Let's leave here first. The training ground is temporarily closed, and no one is allowed to enter."

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

After watching the Huashan Sect members leave, Wang Chao refocused his attention on the wooden dummy.

The wooden dummy used for practice has been wrapped with a special spiritual power, containing some of the Huashan Sect Leader's insights into Huashan boxing.

At this moment, they are slowly seeping into the wooden dummy.

Later, if someone uses it to practice, they will have the opportunity to learn Huashan boxing.

If someone uses it to practice Huashan boxing, they will gain the Huashan sect leader's insights into Huashan boxing, even if not all of them, it will be enough to make them improve quickly.

At the same time, because it also contains a certain power of rules, when practicing with it, it can guide and correct the defects of the technique according to the operation of the rules of heaven and earth, so that it can be continuously improved.

Just like the previous leader of the Huashan Sect, he entered a state similar to enlightenment.

However, although the dynasty made some adjustments to the rules regarding puppets.

However, some of its drawbacks still exist.

The most direct effect is the corrosive influence of eerie energy.

In addition, there is the erosion of the puppet rule power.

If the wooden dummy is used continuously, it will eventually turn into a puppet, a wooden puppet.

Through sensing the rules of the puppets, the dynasty was able to discover that, apart from Mount Hua, due to his gaze, the power of the rules converged, and thus the wooden dummy puppets were produced extremely quickly.

Similar phenomena are occurring in other parts of the world.

However, because the puppet's rules apply to the entire world, and its power is extremely weak.

Therefore, the power dispersed by the puppet rule is not enough to instantly turn all beings in the world into puppets.

After some calculations, the dynasty realized that it would take about half a year for these entities to be completely turned into puppets.

Of course, there are also some special cases, special entities, that have already completed the transformation or are about to complete it.

For example, the paper-cut figure chasing Xu Lao Er is one that has already been transformed.

However, such a strange creature basically has no potential for growth; it only needs to absorb and integrate a little bit of strange energy to complete its evolution early on.

Even if it can devour the essence, energy, and spirit of humans and grow its spiritual power later on, its upper limit will not be too high.

After experiencing the workings of the puppet rules of the world, the dynasty prepared to use the power of the puppet rules to re-coalesce and manifest its form.

However, he suddenly realized that the puppet rules were indeed changing accordingly.

However, the other rules of heaven and earth remained unchanged and unmoved. Even the rules governing puppets were bound by the many rules of heaven and earth and continued to operate according to their inherent rules, which caused his idea of ​​condensing a manifest form to fail.

After several attempts, the dynasty not only failed to solidify its form, but also caused the puppet rules to fluctuate, leading to constant fluctuations in other rules as well.

The conflict nearly caused the collapse of the newly formed puppet rules, extinguishing his last vestige of consciousness.

"grass!"

At this moment, even someone with the temperament of a dynasty couldn't help but break down a little.

I never imagined that there would be such drawbacks after achieving perfect harmony with the Dao.

Fortunately, what he merged with in this world was merely a wisp of his mind.

After calming down, Wang Chao carefully sensed the rules of the puppet and the operation of other similar rules of heaven and earth, and gradually gained some understanding.

Once the rules of the puppet are embedded in this world, they become part of the rules of the world and are basically impossible to operate independently.

A single move can affect the whole situation.

For the dynasty to condense a physical form using the puppet rules would be tantamount to mobilizing the rules of the entire world. With his current wisp of consciousness and the sheer size of the puppet rules, this was utterly a pipe dream.

He wants to solidify his physical form in reality, unless there is a stagnation of power in the puppet rules of some places, which could cause a violent upheaval in the rules.

Wang Chao gazed down upon the heavens and earth, lost in thought. Was this some kind of catastrophe, a calamity that Wang Chao was about to face?

Of course, if he is willing to settle for second best, there are other options.

For example, with those puppets, the dynasty could devote its mind and spirit to them, allowing them to descend into the real world in the form of puppets.

While Wang Chao was still in a daze, it was already broad daylight, and the people of Mount Hua began to seal off the training ground.

On the other side, Xu Lao Er is trying to make a paper-cut figure.

As the strange power was injected, it immediately resonated with the rules of the puppet. The strange power injected into the paper figure began to evolve spontaneously, condensing into divine runes that were imprinted on the paper figure.

Throughout the entire process, without Xu Lao Er drawing any magical runes, a paper-cut figure of the lowest level was created on its own.

Furthermore, due to the involvement of the puppet's rule power, the self-evolving paper-cut figure is even more spiritual than a normally made paper-cut figure.

Thus, it has both advantages and disadvantages.

The benefits are quite obvious: it eliminates the tedious steps of drawing runes, and can evolve instantly simply by injecting strange power.

Once you've mastered it, you can instantly create thousands of paper figures at the same time.

Imagine, when two people are fighting, you simply wave your hand, and thousands of paper figures transform into an army to fight for you. How dashing and imposing that would be!

However, there are both advantages and disadvantages.

The paper dolls evolved by directly resonating with the rules of the puppets are indeed extremely fast, extremely powerful, and more spiritual.

However, this can also easily lead to a situation where one's aspirations are high but one's abilities are low, and one's foundation is weak.

When one reaches a higher level and needs to deeply understand the underlying principles and rules, it is inevitable to experience a sense of instability and uncertainty, feeling as if something is right in front of you but still out of reach.

Conversely, by creating paper-cut figures step by step and mastering the combination and operation of runes, one can easily break through to the next level and effortlessly enter the realm of supernatural powers.

As for how to choose, that depends on the individual's decision.

For the next period of time, the dynasty's mind merged with the puppet's rules, flowing through the level of the rules of heaven and earth, deeply comprehending the operation of the rules.

Until one day, in a field in Shanxi, a scarecrow used to scare away birds suddenly started moving on its own without any wind, turning left and right and back and forth, looking at the field in front of it.

The moment the scarecrow moved, the puppet rules that filled the world instantly strengthened, which finally caught the dynasty's attention.

After scanning the surrounding farmland, the scarecrow suddenly emitted a mysterious fluctuation and instantly appeared a hundred meters away.

With its head slightly lowered, the straw on its arm suddenly pierced through a rat, killing and devouring it.
