"You will be controlled by Sui Shunyuan's puppeteer arts unless I said so otherwise later on." Duan Li instructed to the Guardian Knight puppet as it nodded.

Forming a series of complex hand incantation gestures, Sui Shunyuan then casted his puppet arts;

'Six Paths of Puppet Arts!'

Weengg!!

The body of the Guardian Knight Puppet rattled for a moment before it calmed down, signs that Sui Shunyuan had successfully controlled its whole body!

"What a talented young man.. he is already able to master their late clan's secret art to such an extent.." the Emperor nodded in acknowledgement.

All in all, there were 3 levels of the puppet arts; the lowest being the Three Paths of Puppet Arts, and the highest being the Nine Paths of Puppet arts.

In their records, the only last known Sui Clan's member that managed to master the highest, the Nine Paths of Puppet Arts was the long deceased main head of the family from back then; Sui Mulong!

Even after the coup that led to the downfall of the clan, the new head after that, Sui Palui, only managed to master up to the Six Paths of Puppet Arts!

With this alone, it had already outlined what a genius Sui Shunyuan were. Usually, only the elders whom have accumulated enough experience were able to master the Six Paths of Puppet Arts, but Sui Shunyuan?

He was still young and has a very high probability to be able to master the highest form of puppet arts!

The Nine Paths of Puppet Arts!

He would then become a great asset to the Empire later on in the future!

"What a surge of power!" Sui Shunyuan exclaimed in excitement.

Because of his puppet arts, he could feel the raw flow of spiritual Qi coursing through the body of the Guardian Knight Puppet; this was a prowess that feels totally boundless for him!

Noticing the excited look on the other party, the Emperor shook his head.

"It's a pity that that version of Guardian Knight Puppet could only make full use of High quality spirit stones. The Superior quality spirit stone in it right now would only provide it excess energy without any increase in its power, so its prowess should still be somewhere in between Middle to Late stage Nascent Soul realm." he said.

To date, there was no Guardian Knight Puppet able to make full use of a Superior quality spirit stone and for obvious reason of course.

One was that the materials would be ultra rare to find, extremely difficult to forge and would require the absolute best of blacksmith forger to mold them!

Second was that there has never been in history of anyone capable of achieving such a feat, at least none in the Tian continent yet.

And third, Superior quality spirit stones was perhaps the most rarest of all minerals in the Tian continent, at least before Duan Li somehow ended up with a bunch of them.

Thus, unless it was from someone with heaven-defying capabilities, would a Guardian Knight Puppet of such a caliber could be made.

And in the case that it were made, then its battle prowess would definitely surpass the realm of Nascent Soul realm on a whole another level for sure!

"You should back away now with the rest of them young man, just fight using the puppet in your stead for now." the Emperor advised.

Seeing that the Emperor himself had personally asked him to retreat back, it would be extremely rude for him to go against it, therefore he nodded and swiftly dashed to where everyone were.

After all, with the Six Paths of Puppet arts, even from such a distance, he could still control it with no problem at all.

Turning his attention back towards Cao Tengfei, the Emperor smirks, "It's not that I don't know what your plan here is, you wanted to drag this situation out as long as possible right? Well, I've been stalling for time to complete this as well."

With a flick of his finger, the students that retreated all the way back was encassed in a spatial barrier of the same level as the surrounding barrier that encompassed them all.

Wengg!!

"Ahaha.. that's a very smart move right over there. I was planning to kill them for their loud mouths earlier on, but I guess I'll have to do that next time. Huehuehue." Cao Tengfei chuckled.

In his mind, since he had already marked everyone here with his soul sense, there was no way those people would be able to get away from his grasp in the future.

He was hell bent into wanting to kill those students as they gave his name a bad taste to it, such that even he himself found it embarrassing!

Death was only a matter of time for them, it was inevitable.

And after that, perhaps I should find the opportunity to give myself a good name..

"Audacious! You dare to speak to the Emperor like that?! You think the more we dilly-dally here, the weaker this barrier around us gets right? Well, here is a surprise for you!" Fei Jin Fang took out a talisman.

Seeing this talisman, Cao Tengfei narrowed his eyes as he quickly pointed his index finger forward and shot a black tendrils of flame from the tip of it in order to burn down the talisman.

"Too late!" Fei Jin Fang injected his spiritual Qi into the talisman as it burned in a spectacular flash of blue flames!

Whooshh!!

Wengg!!

The 500 meter square barrier ontop of them vibrated, before its previous vivid state turned more viscous, signs that it was reinforced to become much more durable and long lasting.

"Damn you!" Cao Tengfei cursed out.

He did have some reservation that on the off chance, the two of them might try to reinforce the barrier and that would spell some trouble for him.

But its not like everything can go according to plan. Besides, since the Emperor decided to protect the students while the weaker one here reinforced the barrier all by himself, there was only one way for him to escape this current predicament of his; and that was to focus on attacking Fei Jin Fang!

The moment Fei Jin Fang became tired, the barrier would become unstable, and at that moment, he could blast his way out from this place!

Both the Emperor and Fei Jin Fang was no amateur and realized this issue as well, but they betted on their luck that they would be able to take this man down, for the simple reason that their black horse was here - Duan Li!

Staring at one another, they waited to see on who would make the first move first.

Zengg!!

The Guardian Knight Puppet that was controlled by Sui Shunyuan made the first dash to Cao Tengfei.

'Strings of Rupture!'

With an open finger attack akin to a stabbing motion with a knife, 5 strings made up of spiritual Qi was shot forward from each of the five fingers of the puppet.

"Hmph!" in response, Cao Tengfei threw out a slap to counter the five strings coming at him, but just as it was about to touch the strings, the 5 strings ruptured and turned into countless smaller strings that weaved its way around that palm attack.

Noticing this, Cao Tengfei only snorted and erected his Soul barrier to protect him.

Pengg!!

All the strings were deflected harshly by this seemingly invisible barrier. This was many times stronger than the spiritual Qi barrier that one could form after reaching the Core realm and was only accessible to those in the Nascent Soul realm.

Still, Sui Shunyuan's motive was not to attack Cao Tengfei, but to restrain the latter!

Fwipp!!

The deflected strings converged back to wrap around his Soul barrier, and Cao Tengfei's expression turned livid.

"You want to stop me? Dream on!" he bellowed out and the black tendrils around his body began to infuse into his Soul barrier before quickly turning black.

When the Emperor saw this, he summoned his sword and leaped forward to swiftly cut the connection of the strings between the two right in the middle.

Swishh!!

And just as he did that, the remaining strings attached to Cao Tengfei's black barrier turned into black color in an instant, before receding into the barrier, as if absorbed.

"Be careful! That black stuff, they call it the Demiruke's virus.. once infected by it, you will turn into a monster!" Fei Jin Fang shouted.

The Emperor nodded with grim countenance, "This is perhaps the main reason why it was so hard to deal with the members from this Dark Sect! If not for this so-called virus, we would have long gone all-out to eradicate them once and for all for their blasphemous action towards mankind!"

Cao Tengfei laughed out loud when he heard this, "HAHAHA! What a prepostrous claim! You call our method blasphemous? We are just a group of individuals that decided to cultivate using alternate means.. HAHAHA!"

"This maniac..!!" Duan Li gritted his teeth in anger.

From the looks of it, the constant wails and roars of anger seething from those black tendrils, it appears to be the negative emotions from people..

Could it be?!

Activating his Tetra Soul Sense (Author note: Tetra Unsealing arts changed to Tetra Soul Sense for this ability), Duan Li scanned the black tendrils.

[Analysis in progress.. complete.]

[Demiruke's Virus - High possibility of transmogrification into a lesser being with varying capabilities depending onhost once injected.]

[Demiruke's blood - harvested from the remains of the mythical creature, Demon Demiruke. Effects, transmogrifying living organism with negative energy into lesser beings.]

[Negative energy - source was derived from human souls. The more unstable a human's emotion were before death, the higher will be its negative energy purity.]

"As expected!" Duan Li narrowed his eyes as the bubbles of anger inside him swelled up.

Bbzzttt! Bbzzzttt!!

He had long been in his peak right now, and it's time to let the fist do the talking!
