"Let's leave it at this for now. From now on, this Earth Rank Soul Puppet is at your disposal."

Upon hearing these words, the joy in Xia Hun Wu's eyes intensified. Although this Earth Rank Soul Puppet had been greatly damaged, it could at least fight against a Spirit Stage Level 8!

At the instant when his eyes brimmed with joy, Xia Hengwu's palms also trembled slightly. After which, he issued a command in his heart, but the Soul Puppet in front of him did not show any reaction.

"Why isn't it moving?" Xia Hun Wu asked curiously as he witnessed this scene.

"Didn't I tell you before that a Soul Puppet like this requires a special resonance soul power from a Spiritual Array to activate?" Old Mu rolled his eyes and said.

"Then... Do I need to set up a couple of Spiritual Arrays beside him if I want to activate him? " Xia Hun Wu said slowly.

"This Puppet Spirit is originally a special puppet formed from a Spiritual Array. If you want to use it, you can just use your own Spiritual Seal. With your current number of Spiritual Seals, he can barely maintain it for a minute." Old Mu crossed his arms and said.

"The thirty-seven spirit seals can only be maintained for one minute? The consumption of this thing is that terrifying? " When Xia Hun Wu heard Old Mu's words, he exclaimed in shock.

"Brat, you're still looking down on us. Isn't it because your cultivation level is too low? When you break through to the Earth Rank Spiritual Seal Master realm, you'll probably be able to control it for tens of minutes." Old Mu said indifferently.

Xia Hun Wu nodded and could only reluctantly accept this fact. This was comparable to a spirit at the eighth level of the Spirit Stage. Although it could only last for a minute, it was probably enough to deal with a sudden situation.

If that Ice Spirit Puppet were to appear, perhaps Liu Changan would not be a match for it.

"Alright, let's stop sighing and focus on cultivation. Moreover, this thing will definitely have a life-saving effect at a critical moment." Seeing Xia Hengwu's depressed expression, Elder Mu comforted him.

"You should know that even a damaged Earth Grade Soul Puppet would be extremely terrifying at the auction house's price. I wonder how many people would fight over it. Now that you have picked up such a thing for free, what is there to worry about?"

Although he knew what Old Mu had said, Xia Hengwu still felt depressed. He had originally thought that with this Puppet Spirit, he would be able to run amuck through the entire Five Yuan Territory. He never thought that there would be so many restrictions and with his current number of Spiritual Seals, he only had thirty-seven.

Yes, it's better than nothing. Just treat it as a life-saving talisman." Xia Hun Wu slowly took in a breath of cold air. Although his strength was lacking, it was just as Old Man Mu had said: this thing could definitely protect his life at a critical moment. This made his heart feel a lot better.

As this thought flashed across his mind, Xia Hun Wu waved his hand and kept the Soul Puppet into his Qiankun bag. Then, he lifted his head and looked at the passageway in front of him.

After flying down the tunnel, a mess appeared in Xia Hun Wu's line of sight. Although this tunnel was dark, there were several remnants of a Puppet Spirit. It was likely that Liu Chang An and the rest had fought with the Puppet Spirit while passing through this tunnel.

Xia Hun Wu's speed slowed down when he saw these broken Soul Puppets. Although he did not find any treasures in them, there were no obstacles. It seemed like Liu Chang An and his men had cleaned up the area.

All of the traps and obstacles in this tunnel were destroyed by them.

As such, Xia Hun Wu walked in the silent passageway for around ten minutes, passing by several spacious halls along the way. As Xia Hun Wu advanced, the traces of fighting within the halls became more evident, it was evident that the Puppet Spirit was becoming stronger and stronger, in addition to the large amount of people, even Liu Chang An and the rest were extremely powerful.

"Clatter!"

When Xia Hengwu once again passed through an extremely empty hall, his eyes locked onto a broken Puppet Spirit in front of him.

At the end of this passageway, there was a broken Puppet Spirit in front of him. Xia Hun Wu's figure slowly approached and his gaze was fixed on the broken Puppet Spirit behind him.

It was a sea of flames. Even though Xia Hengwu had yet to step into it, the terrifying temperature caused him to furrow his brows.

"Kid, even this Earth Stage Soul Puppet was destroyed by him. Their strength is definitely not simple!"

Old Mu slowly spoke beside Xia Hengwu as he stared intently at the sea of fire.

"Although this Earth Rank Soul Puppet is broken, it still has the strength of at least the eighth level Spirit Stage. Even a Soul Puppet like this did not stop it?"

Xia Hun Wu withdrew his gaze from the sea of fire. He immediately lowered his head and touched the already shattered Soul Puppet, as a serious look flashed across his eyes. These fellows indeed had quite a formidable strength.

Fortunately, the Spiritual Marks on this Soul Puppet have not completely disappeared. Otherwise, if the Profound Ice Spirit Puppet were to gain the control of this Soul Puppet, I'm afraid that you would not have the slightest chance of winning in the Spiritual Seal fight a year from now. However, these few people's strength can be considered pretty good compared to the twelve super empires. Elder Mu said as he appeared beside Xia Hengwu.

Upon hearing these words, Xia Hun Wu nodded his head. If not for Old Mu's existence, this kind of Earth Ranked Puppet Spirit was not something that he would be able to get his hands on.

"If you enter through this hole, you should be at the core position of this mansion. Do you plan to enter, or …?"

"I told you in advance that it would be several times more dangerous inside than outside. Even I wouldn't be able to protect you completely. After all, I haven't recovered 10% of my strength to the peak." Elder Mu looked at the sea of fire in front of him as he spoke.

The corners of Xia Hun Wu's lips curled up as he chuckled, "We're already here, am I supposed to turn back now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Hengwu's figure did not hesitate as he stepped into the sea of fire.

Old Mu laughed softly when he saw this. "Brat, you do have the demeanor I had back then. Don't worry, as long as you do not encounter a practitioner at the Samsara Stage, this old man will guarantee your safety." As he spoke, he followed Xia Hailwu into the sea of fire.

Just as he entered the cave, Xia Hun Wu was obstructed by the sea of fire in front of him. Streams of scarlet light filled his eyes as a blazing wave of fire rushed towards him, frightening him as he hurriedly circulated his soul power to protect his entire body.
