Hongjun was somewhat surprised.
Originally, these individuals were his hidden pawns placed within the Primordial World.
They were waiting, silently developing.
They were his capable subordinates, whom he had nurtured with great care.
He had intended to bring them with the resources of the Primordial World once he had settled down.
To conquer galaxies alongside him.
And then, to rule the star domains.
Why were they here, instead of staying in their world to improve their strength?
His gaze shifted slightly.
He saw the three Daoists at the forefront with looks of utter despair.
"Master, our world is gone!"
"Gone?"
Hongjun asked, confused.
What did that mean?
It wasn't until the three Daoists finished their tale that he finally understood.
An unknown energy had invaded, and the world couldn't sustain itself, leading to its direct destruction?
He felt a sense of bewilderment.
Who had he offended this time?
The man in red, upon hearing this, explained the reason.
This likely had been affected by powers beyond the Transcendent realm, or perhaps even close to the Immortal realm.
As for why it wasn't the Immortal realm.
A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
That small planet, lacking in energy.
And devoid of treasures.
How could it possibly be worth the intervention of an Immortal realm expert?
Hongjun, hearing this, was filled with righteous anger.
In the past.
If he was bullied, he was bullied.
Powers beyond the Transcendent realm were beings he couldn't even imagine.
But now.
He had subordinates at the Immortal realm.
Could he still endure such an insult?
"Did you clearly see what happened?"
The three Daoists nodded.
But upon seeing the puppet Xiao Feng opposite them, they shook their heads again.
"That's not right."
"I saw it very clearly. It was the otherworldly individual's transcendence that triggered an overly exaggerated external energy fluctuation, causing the world to collapse."
"But the other party also suffered greatly. Their avatar within the world couldn't return to reality and was randomly exiled elsewhere."
"How could they possibly return so quickly?"
He pointed to Lin Feng, whom he believed to be the one.
Hongjun suddenly shivered.
Something was wrong!
If the Lin Feng who caused the collapse in his world was the main body.
Then.
This Lin Feng, who had been fighting him to a standstill several times.
And could even contend with an Immortal realm expert now.
Who was it?
His mind instantly cleared.
The Lin Feng before him was merely a clone-like entity!
This realization caused his pupils to dilate, finding it hard to believe.
But how was this possible?
He felt a sense of confusion.
If it was just a clone, how could it possess such strength?
Moreover.
If even the clone possessed this level of power, how terrifying must the main body be?
He dared not contemplate it further.
Yet, recalling their previous encounters, he felt increasingly that something was amiss.
His body was harder than any magical treasure.
He spoke very little.
His attack methods were very limited.
His expression was somewhat vacant…
He couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
It seemed.
The other party was indeed a clone-like puppet.
He felt a burning sensation on his face.
He had actually been fighting a clone for so long?
Suddenly.
He felt a hint of apprehension.
He felt.
He might be provoking someone he couldn't afford to offend.
A clone possessed power close to the Immortal realm, and behind them was a Master realm powerhouse supporting them, just like his own backer.
Having such a person as an opponent was truly torturous!
"Interesting!"
At this moment.
Tai Hao's voice echoed in his mind.
Hongjun quickly pricked up his ears.
"My lord, what do you mean?"
"I didn't expect to discover such a puppet. If cultivated properly, it could become a formidable Immortal realm expert."
"It seems you are my lucky star!"
Hearing Tai Hao's intent to support him to the end, Hongjun regained his confidence.
Although I may not be your equal.
The lord I have pledged allegiance to is certainly not inferior!
"How about this, old man Huang Shi."
"Since I'm bored anyway, and this is a rare bit of fun."
"Shall we make a bet?"
Tai Hao's sudden proposal surprised Huang Shi.
Originally, this was just a dispute between juniors, and they two were merely observing.
How did it come to this, with just watching not being enough?
However, he naturally had no fear.
"How do you wish to bet?"
"Let's bet on the outcome between the two of them. For the stake, I'll offer ten small planet cores, how about that?"
Tai Hao's words sent a shock through Huang Shi's heart.
Something was wrong!
This fellow was usually very cautious.
Why was he so generous today?
Could it be that he had absolute confidence in winning?
But the Immortal divinity the young friend brought was clearly top-tier.
Even if there were some losses in its use for this puppet, absorbing it would still create a powerful Immortal realm expert.
The red-clothed youth opposite him had only mediocre strength.
Where did Tai Hao get such great confidence?
Could it be that.
He thought what I brought was just ordinary Immortal divinity?
Huang Shi's mind raced through many thoughts.
Finally, he found the answer.
It must be!
He thought I hastily acquired some Immortal divinity from somewhere.
Even after absorbing it, its strength wouldn't be much.
It wouldn't be a match for the red-clothed youth, who had been stuck in the Immortal realm for many years.
However.
Huang Shi sneered inwardly.
But how could you know.
This was the essence dropped after my clone died!
Of course.
It was also slightly improved by the young friend.
How could ordinary cats and dogs compare?
With this thought, his heart settled.
"Agreed!"
"Then our side will also offer ten..."
He said indifferently.
Although he didn't have as many planets as Tai Hao.
And for his own purposes, he could disregard the lives on the planet and only focus on transforming it into a planet core.
Actually producing ten would be quite troublesome.
But he wouldn't lose, so why be afraid?
He was about to agree quickly.
But he was interrupted by Tai Hao.
"No!"
"I don't want the planet cores."
"If we win, you give this kid to me."
"I happen to need a subordinate, and I think this young man is quite suitable."
Huang Shi was stunned.
He didn't want the planet cores, he wanted the person?
However, he didn't care at all.
No matter what his calculations were, the outcome would be the same!
"No problem!"
He agreed immediately.
But the team members were filled with anxiety.
Although he couldn't see Huang Shi's figure, Yang Jun knew that a powerful being beyond his imagination was protecting them.
He quickly found a way to communicate with him.
He called out silently in his heart.
"Are you so confident in Brother Feng?"
He couldn't help but want to reveal the truth, "You may not know, sir, but Xiao Feng is actually just a puppet, and his true strength..."
"It's fine, I know everything!"
Huang Shi interrupted his explanation.
Yang Jun was stunned.
"You know?"
"This thing has a vacant gaze and stiff movements, and its strength is utterly insignificant. How could it possibly be the young friend himself?"
Huang Shi's words greatly surprised Yang Jun.
This mysterious powerhouse actually held such high regard for Brother Feng?
He couldn't help but feel a little proud.
It seemed.
Even though Brother Feng hadn't returned to the game, his strength hadn't diminished at all.
He didn't know what his true strength had reached now.
His gaze was full of longing.
"You are controlling this puppet, aren't you?"
"Have it quickly absorb this Immortal divinity and improve its strength."
Huang Shi instructed.
"Finish the fight quickly, and I'll be leaving!"
"When that time comes, the ten planet cores the opponent loses will be enough to allow all ten of you to achieve true Transcendent realm, and your safety will be guaranteed."
The other party's words filled Yang Jun with surprise and joy.
But also with doubt.
"Is this Immortal divinity truly so powerful that Xiao Feng can win against the opponent just by absorbing it?"
"Just watch!"
Huang Shi said impatiently.
And under Yang Jun's operation.
The puppet Xiao Feng closed his eyes and absorbed the Immortal divinity into his mouth.
After a series of brilliant maneuvers.
He opened his eyes and stood up.
The man in red's eyes lit up.
It seemed.
He had something to play with?
...
Thanks to King Yu'an of the Great Wall for the like.
