The sequence is too involutional, luckily I am too.

Chapter 171 Mystic Puppet VS Hundred Soldiers!

Nangong Muyu keenly caught Lu Yan's momentary weakness, and a glint of light flashed in her eyes.

Taking advantage of Lu Yan's momentary distraction, he suddenly thrust his sword towards Lu Yan's heart with lightning speed, giving Lu Yan no time to react.

At this critical moment, the secret manual suddenly appeared above Lu Yan's head, and the pages turned automatically, instantly flipping to the fifth page.

A series of dazzling lights flashed, and layers of tough thorn armor appeared out of thin air, firmly enveloping Lu Yan's entire body.

It is the secret technique, Anti-Armor.

Nangong Muyu's sword strike was unstoppable, piercing through several layers of thorn armor before finally striking the Protection of Nature.

However, the sword's momentum was gradually worn down, and it could no longer advance even an inch, unable to cause any harm to Lu Yan.

On the contrary, Nangong Muyu was forced to take several steps back by the reflected damage from the Thornmail Secret Technique.

To his surprise, the moment his sword tip touched the Protection of Nature, an invisible force suddenly pulled him into the Emerald Dream.

In the blink of an eye, Nangong Muyu broke free from the Emerald Dream with her powerful mental strength. With a few leaps, she widened the distance between herself and Lu Yan, and the excitement in her eyes grew even stronger.

"There are so many gold-level rare items, it's truly enviable."

Nangong Muyu raised her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, looking at Lu Yan with envy at the secret arts and natural protection surrounding him.

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes.

This guy can casually pull out a Primal Card as a wager, and now he's complaining about being poor. He's shameless.

"That makes it harder to imitate."

Nangong Muyu scratched his head, then reached into the top hat and fiddled around for a while. With a slight tugging sound, he pulled out a figure that looked exactly like the real person.

"Don't get me wrong, this is just a puppet I made."

Nangong Muyu smiled and explained, placing the puppet beside her, then continued to tug at the hat with increasing force.

Nangong Muyu only stopped after pulling out a total of six secret puppets and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Phew~ That should be about right."

He wiped away non-existent beads of sweat from his forehead, his gaze returning to Lu Yan. His smile remained exaggerated, but now it held a touch more seriousness.

"Alright, let's begin the second round!"

Lu Yan remained silent, his gaze sweeping over the six secret puppets, his heart growing heavy.

He could clearly sense a powerful extraordinary aura emanating from these puppets; each one had reached the peak of Sequence 6, and their combat strength was not to be underestimated.

And Nangong Muyu actually summoned six of these secret puppets at once!

The most crucial question is, shouldn't this ability belong to the Puppet God?

Is there a connection between fools and puppets?

"This is definitely going to be tough!"

Lu Yan sighed softly and gently patted the weapon box behind him.

In an instant, the lid of the Hundred Weapons Box opened, and all the gold-grade artifacts flew out, hovering around Lu Yan, radiating brilliant light and forming a solid defensive barrier, while also containing powerful offensive capabilities.

This time, it was finally Nangong Muyu's turn to be stunned.

He clearly hadn't expected Lu Yan to possess so many gold-grade rare items, and his envy deepened, along with a touch of genuine apprehension.

"It seems like we really are going to lose."

In the golden seat, Xiahou Yu looked at the twenty golden artifacts around Lu Yan that radiated dazzling light, his face full of disbelief.

"Twenty gold-grade rare items—Ning Ran, are you sure Lu Yan really came from a background of refugees?"

Although Lu Yan had previously displayed an astonishing number of rare items, most of them were only silver-grade rare items. Considering that he had the Second Judge Xue Jiansheng behind him, this amount of wealth was not much.

But only a short time later, all the strange items under Lu Yan's command had turned into gold-grade items, and their numbers had even increased significantly. This was simply outrageous.

Upon hearing this, Ning Ran nodded slightly in response, while unconsciously touching the Yama Blade at her waist with her left hand, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.

If he said that Lu Yan could forge gold-grade artifacts on his own, these people probably wouldn't believe him.

"Lu Yan must have come from a background of refugees, but this kid has been making quite a bit of money lately."

Chen Qi had a half-smile on his face as he pointed at everyone present, finally landing on himself, his tone tinged with self-deprecation.

"Putting everything else aside, Lu Yan has made a fortune just from his bets with everyone here."

Upon hearing this, the people in the golden seats looked somewhat uneasy, their faces turning slightly red.

They not only lost the bet, but were also basically defeated by Lu Yan in one move, which was really embarrassing to talk about.

Xiahou Yu, in particular, looked extremely embarrassed.

Although he wasn't killed in one move, he was crushed and defeated by Lu Yan using his low-level abilities, which was even more humiliating than being killed in one move!

"If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Yan will make a fortune again from this."

Chen Qi pointed to Yin Shuo and Qian Xin, who were earnestly selling gambling tickets in the audience, and chuckled.

These two haven't stopped since the start of the match.

"However, you can't defeat Nangong Muyu with just rare items."

Bai Xiao suddenly spoke, his sharp gaze sweeping over the six secret puppets in front of Nangong Muyu, his tone solemn.

"Don't you guys think these puppets look somewhat familiar?"

Before anyone could respond, Bai Xiao announced the identities of the secret puppets one by one, her voice clear and cold.

"Trial Path Sequence 6: Judge Li Yiming, sentenced to death for colluding with followers of the cult and betraying the secrets of the sanctuary!"

"Gravity Path Sequence 6: Meteorite Summoner - Liu Xiu, sentenced to death for deliberately damaging the walls of his shelter, causing numerous civilian casualties!"

"Soul-Stealing Path Sequence 6: Soul-Hooking Messenger—Diao Qianchan, sentenced to death for wantonly absorbing the souls of her fellow citizens for cultivation!"

"Civilian Path Sequence 6 - Armor-Cracker: Death Penalty!"

"Beast Soul Path Sequence 6: Berserker, Death Penalty!"

"Spiritual Path Sequence 6: The Underworld Medium, Death Penalty!"

As Bai Xiao finished speaking, the expressions of the people in the golden seats gradually became serious, and their auras deepened.

These magical dolls—were actually made from real human bodies?

Although these death row inmates deserved to die and their hands were stained with evil, the idea of ​​using living people to create puppets still sends chills down one's spine and makes one's heart sink.

This skill looks so much like the ability of a follower of the Puppet God!

Was Nangong Muyu awakened through such a dangerous and sinister path?

But soon, the group recovered from their shock and looked back at the fighting arena with inexplicably complicated expressions.

Regardless of how the Mystics were made, these six Mystics were all top-tier powerhouses in Sequence 6 during their lifetimes, and their combat strength should not be underestimated.

Although fewer in number than Lu Yan's golden artifacts, the power they can unleash is in no way weaker.

Moreover, no one dares to say that Nangong Muyu only has this many secret puppets.

"Those two beasts!"

Chen Qi spat fiercely, his tone full of helplessness and apprehension, secretly making plans in his heart.

It's a good thing that the old men in Muyun wanted him to win over Lu Yan, but judging from the current trend, it's more likely that he will surrender directly!

"Hmm~ It doesn't seem like it's a bad idea after all!"

Chen Qi's mind was in turmoil, his eyes flickering. The others were also preoccupied with their own thoughts, remaining silent and plotting something.

Meanwhile, outside the arena, the managers of various families and forces in the Primordial Sanctuary gathered together, their expressions varying as they stared intently at the direction of the fighting arena.

They would also come to the fighting arena to watch the new students' matches on weekdays. If they saw suitable talents, they would go down into the arena to recruit them and build up their own power.

But this is the first time that the leaders of all the top powers have gathered together like this.

After all, this is a duel between the two most monstrous young powerhouses of this generation. Whether it's Lu Yan's rapid rise or Nangong Muyu's top position on the Golden List, it's worth their personal attendance to witness the battle and see just how much potential these two young people have.

Among them, naturally, were the Five Elders of Muyun.

"To be able to push Nangong Muyu to this extent, Lu Yan's talent is truly terrifying, far surpassing all other young powerhouses of his generation."

Lin Mu sighed softly, a hint of regret in his voice, "We were too hesitant. If we had acted sooner to win them over, perhaps—"

You're overthinking it.

Zhou Tianqing snorted coldly, interrupting Lin Mu, his tone icy and direct, "Judging from what Branch 056 did to Lu Yan before, Lu Yan was never going to be of any use to Mu Yun from the very beginning. And even without those things, do you think you could have snatched someone away from Xue Jiansheng?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu's face showed some resentment. He immediately wanted to retort, but Xiang Ling directly raised his hand to interrupt him.

"There's no point in saying more, let's continue watching the game."

Xiang Ling's tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable authority. As he spoke, his gaze slowly swept across the audience, his eyes inexplicably profound. "This match is not just a battle between the younger generation."

Upon hearing this, the others were all intrigued and followed Xiang Ling's gaze to the audience, but found nothing unusual. They could only suppress their doubts and refocus their attention on the fighting arena.

Meanwhile, inside the fighting arena, the atmosphere had reached its peak.

Lu Yan and Nangong Muyu stared at each other from afar, their extraordinary auras rising rapidly, colliding and intertwining to form an invisible pressure that made the surrounding air thicken.

The audience below the stage dared not breathe, staring intently at the two people in the arena, afraid of missing any detail.

Suddenly, the two of them moved at the same time!

Nangong Muyu's fingers flew across the screen, as if she had touched some hidden threads in the air. The next second, the six puppets moved in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized and without the slightest hesitation.

The gravitational path's secret puppet raised its hand to pull, and the scattered rocks condensed into meteorites, which fell down with a howling wind.

The puppets of the Soul-Seizing Path chanted eerie incantations, and countless pitch-black soul beasts surged from the ground, tearing at Lu Yan.

The puppets of the colony path are even more terrifying. Their skin cracks open, and countless sharp weapons grow out of their bodies, creating a dazzling display of blades and a chilling aura.

The six puppets were like a well-coordinated suicide squad, with clear division of labor and fierce attacks, rapidly approaching Lu Yan and completely sealing off all his escape routes.

Lu Yan was equally impressive, his expression remaining calm. With a thought, the golden artifacts floating around him instantly lit up, and countless weapon spirits emerged one after another, gripping their respective weapons and charging towards the puppet.

After advancing to the Gold rank, all the artifacts gained their own unique characteristics and skills, greatly increasing their combat power.

While each individual golden artifact may not be as powerful as a Sequence 6 superhuman in terms of individual combat strength, when used in pairs, they are well-rounded in both offense and defense, and are not at a disadvantage.

To be precise, Lu Yan had the upper hand.

At this moment, quantity overshadowed quality!
