Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master

After all, figures like Lin Bufan and Shen Lingshu were watching the fight.

Ning Zhuo nodded, remembering that his purpose here was to explore the Luminous Mirror and that the fight with Linghu Jiu was just a preliminary show. He responded, “What my brother says is wise. I shall heed.”

Though he spoke, his true body remained hidden.

Linghu Jiu laughed heartily, “Younger brother, take this move of mine!”

In the next moment, he spread his arms wide, stretched his fingers, took a deep breath, and his Mana was crazily consumed, transforming into a massive wave.

Water Element Technique—Water Strike Three Thousand!

The giant wave crashed down, flooding into the Ancient Wood Forest.

Bang.

The first strike.

Most of the ancient trees collapsed.

Ning Zhuo quickly activated his mana, causing new giant trees to grow.

Bang.

The second strike.

The newly sprouted ancient trees also broke under the impact of the water, with trunks and broken branches flowing with the current.

Ning Zhuo sighed in his heart, realizing that Linghu Jiu was winning by brute force, relying on his higher cultivation level to overpower him.

He decisively pulled back, stopping the input of mana to avoid entering an unfavorable situation of depleting his mana.

Bang.

The third strike.

The few remaining ancient trees all fell, turning the battlefield into a small lake.

Without the cover of plants, Ning Zhuo was forced to show himself.

The terrain was no longer in his control; he could transform the battlefield, but so could Linghu Jiu.

Ning Zhuo thought with admiration, “Compared to the Wood Element, it seems Linghu Jiu is more proficient in the Water Element.”

“Little brother, my turn!” Linghu Jiu dove down from the sky, his aura as majestic and forceful as a colorful rainbow.

Ning Zhuo slightly changed expression, and with his hands, he alternated between casting Five Elements Magic, resisting the assault while retreating.

Linghu Jiu no longer used the Wine Forest Swordsmanship; wherever his sword edge touched, it was invincible.

Ning Zhuo was extremely distressed, unable to counterattack, and after more than thirty breaths, he had multiple wounds all over his body, with blood flowing incessantly from his injuries.

Linghu Jiu grunted coldly, “What are you thinking, little brother? Bring out your Mechanical Artifacts already.”

Ning Jiufan also frowned deeply. Ning Zhuo excelled in Mechanical Artifacts, and yet he hasn’t used them up to now, facing a powerful opponent like Linghu Jiu—it was unwise to be so overconfident!

Yet suddenly, Ning Zhuo’s face broke into a smile, “Elder brother, your Water Strike Three Thousand just now, was it like this?”

Saying so, he pointed at the water under his feet.

In the next moment, the water surged like dragons and pythons, dozens of strands rising into the sky towards Linghu Jiu.

Caught off guard, Linghu Jiu hurriedly swung his sword light to defend.

Bang.

The first strike.

Linghu Jiu was pushed back.

Bang.

The second strike.

Linghu Jiu’s sword light dispersed.The water dissipated.

The third strike ended without incident.

Ning Zhuo’s eyes sparkled with excitement, “Oh, oh, I made a mistake there. This time, it should be right!”

Water Element—Water Strike Three Thousand!

Hundreds of streams of water surged again towards Linghu Jiu, forcing him back.

Lin Shanshan exclaimed quietly, “That isn’t just any Water Strike Three Thousand, no, wait, it does seem to be Water Strike Three Thousand.”

The technique of Water Strike Three Thousand was supposed to be three massive waves, fierce and overwhelming. But when Ning Zhuo executed it, it was as the previous Root Vine Pass-Through, like dragons and pythons. Nonetheless, the dragon and python combination still possessed the force of three intense collisions. This was indeed the essence of Water Strike Three Thousand!

Thus Lin Shanshan’s remarks sounded contradictory.

The spectators were all deeply moved.

“Enlightenment during battle! How is this possible?”

“Does Ning Zhuo’s intelligence truly defy the natural order?”

“Monster!!”
