C259 Puppet

"So cold!"

"What kind of fog is this? Why is it so cold?" With the combination of pressure and cold energy, even Innate Martial Master Stage experts would not be able to withstand it. She could feel that her soul power was being consumed at least twice as fast as before, and at this rate, it would only take a few hours before it would be completely used up.

"Senior Sister Lee, are you unable to find the location of the Meteorite Crystal?"

"If we continue on like this with no leads, our situation will be very bad." Seeing the fog getting thicker and the two of them trapped in the same place, Lu Chen frowned and reminded them. He wasn't worried about his own situation, but Lee Yue's body might not be able to hold on for long.

"Right, I remember now."

"I have a Spirit Stone. I should be able to sense where the meteorite is." Lee Yue's eyes suddenly lit up as she thought of something.

Under Lu Chen's gaze, she took out a black stone the size of a copper coin and slowly formed hand seals. As the hand seals sped up, the black stone started to change.

"Buzz!"

The black stone suddenly lit up and started to flicker at a slow frequency. Lee Yue was delighted at first, but her delicate face soon revealed traces of confusion as she fell into deep thought.

"How strange, the location of this Spirit Stone is a bit blurry, I can only get a rough idea of the southeast direction." After a long silence, Lee Yue asked with a frown.

"Perhaps it's because of the fog, but we can't sense the exact location. Maybe it's better if we follow the directions first, or there might be some unexpected harvest."

Hearing this, Lu Chen nodded his head and reminded him with a smile.

"Alright, let's do it this way."

With the help of the leading stone, the two of them took several turns and finally left the place. They advanced towards the southeast, and the fog and pressure along the way became denser.

"Senior Sister Lee, can you still hold on?" Lu Chen asked softly when he saw Lee Yue's heavy steps.

"It's fine, the cold nature of the fog is too cold. It's just that I'm not used to it."

"Lu Chen, why does it look like you're fine?" Lee Yue looked at Lu Chen and asked in confusion.

"My skin is too thick, so this little bit of cold air isn't too much of a problem."

"I'm getting more and more curious about your method of training your body. I didn't expect it to be so powerful. This cold Qi is enough to freeze an ordinary Martial Master half to death. If it were another body cultivator, it would be difficult for them to reach your level."

"It seems that I found the right person this time." Although she was surprised by Lu Chen's performance, but in this weird environment, the more Lu Chen performed, the more Lee Yue felt safe. Although she was surprised at Lu Chen's performance, but in this weird environment, the more Lu Chen's performance was, the more Lee Yue felt safe.

Due to the effects of the fog, their speed decreased again.

"Strange, why is the Spirit Stone useless?" Half an hour later, Lee Yue's face was filled with anxiety. The stone in her hand flickered for a moment before it became useless.

"Is the Meteorite Crystal here?" Lu Chen glanced around and saw that it was empty and the ground was littered with gravel.

"Hmm?"

"That is …"

Suddenly, Lu Chen's face became serious and paid attention to the rock-hard bones on the ground not far away. If he was not mistaken, those were the corpses of Human Clan Warriors.

Lu Chen walked up and examined it for a moment and could not help but let out a bitter smile. Under the cover of the fog, the surrounding ground was densely packed with over a hundred skeletons.

"Why are they all bones?"

"What is this place?" Lee Yue was shocked and her face turned pale.

White bones covered the sky, an aura of death suffused the air, exuding a strange and evil aura.

"It seems like it's not that your Spirit Stones have lost their effect, but that we've broken into a core formation somewhere, so our auras have been blocked."0

Looking at the bones, Lu Chen had a strange look in his eyes. If he wasn't wrong, then these skeletons all had the marks of tearing blades. It seemed that they had experienced an intense battle before they died, and if he wasn't mistaken, there should be quite a lot of danger hidden around here.

"What do we do now? Do you want to just go back? " Lee Yue was indeed a little panicked. It was the first time she saw so many bones. She hid behind Lu Chen, only exposing her pair of big eyes.

"We can't retreat now. Look behind us." Lu Chen shook his head and reminded him in a deep voice.

"This …" Lee Yue looked at the path behind her and realized that it had turned into a towering boulder that pierced into the clouds. The path of retreat had actually disappeared.

"Kacha …."

Suddenly, a sharp sound could be heard from the vast expanse of land, causing Lee Yue's eyes to reveal a hint of fear. She stared straight ahead, where the fog was churning violently, as if a shadow was slowly approaching.

Lu Chen was expressionless, but his body was tense. The soul power in his dantian was surging and howling. With just a thought, it could erupt like a volcano.

ta ta … *

Steadily and rhythmically, the sound of footsteps could be heard from the figure as it slowly revealed its true form in the thick fog. This was a very strange thing. Its entire body had rock-hard skin, and it was walking upright like a human. However, its eyes were scarlet with killing intent. It was like an emotionless sculpture as it walked towards Lu Chen and Luo Yuan.

"Puppet?"

Sensing that there was no sign of life on its body, Lu Chen frowned slightly. He didn't expect to see a puppet here, and one that seemed to be filled with a part of its consciousness.

Puppet Technique was an unorthodox technique.

However, a martial artist who had mastered his puppet technique would be able to drive a refined puppet weapon to fight against an enemy. This puppet not only had tyrannical combat strength, but it was also indestructible, and it was even more powerful than an ordinary martial artist.

"You said that it is a puppet? "But it clearly has dense fluctuations of soul power." Lee Yue pursed her lips and stared intently at the approaching figure.

"Soul power fluctuations are nothing. The more powerful the puppet is, the more similar it is to a martial artist. However, no matter how similar the imitation is, it is still an existence akin to a weapon."

Lu Chen smiled and reminded him softly.

"Is that it?" Lee Yue looked at Lu Chen with doubt in her eyes. She had only heard about puppets before, but from Lu Chen's appearance, he seemed to have a certain understanding of these unorthodox methods. What kind of person was Junior Brother Lu?

Lu Chen didn't know that his unintentional words had made him even more unfathomable in Lee Yue's heart.

This puppet was completely black in color, and its body was covered with dust. It seemed to have existed for quite some time. It stared at Lu Chen and his partner with its blood-red eyes. Its body paused for a moment as if it was considering something. After a moment, a fierce and explosive killing intent burst out from its empty eye sockets.

"Those who enter this forbidden area will die!"

A stiff and hoarse voice came out from its body. The aura of the puppet suddenly changed as a substantial killing intent enveloped the two of them.
