Chapter 34: People’s hearts are unpredictable
Putting the two puppet cores engraved with runes into his sleeve robe, Chen Xuanli looked at Zhao Xun with extremely firm eyes, which made Zhao Xun feel that Senior Brother Chen seemed to be a little different from before.
He took a deep breath and somewhat understood Chen Xuanli's mood.
If what appears in the cave is a second-level alchemy master with foundation-building cultivation and above, even if he is now a first-level mid-level alchemy master, his heart will be pounding and he can't help but take action.
Chen Xuanli himself is a puppet master. After guessing that there is a puppet master inheritance in the cave, he has already made up his mind to get this inheritance even if he falls out with Zhou Yang!
Among the crowd, Sun Ming, Song Yi, and the casual cultivator surnamed Wang from Yunzhou met him by chance and were indifferent acquaintances, not worth mentioning.
We had known Zhou Yang for a short time, and Chen Xuanli could not put his trust in him.
Only Zhao Xun is his best friend for several years, and Chen Xuanli also owed him a huge favor because of Chen Xuanli's incident with Alchemist Wei Yun.
Favor is cause and effect.
Except for those cultivators of evil and demonic ways, normal cultivators cannot ignore it, otherwise they will be haunted by inner demons and suffer all kinds of disasters.
Coupled with the strength Zhao Xun showed just now, Chen Xuanli is confident that the two of them will join forces and have great confidence that they can seize the puppet inheritance.
"Brother Chen, don't worry, I know what to do."
Zhao Xun pondered for a moment, looked at Chen Xuanli, and nodded slightly.
The puppet inheritance is of little use to Zhao Xun and has very little appeal. It is better to help Chen Xuanli with help in times of need, which can be regarded as repaying the previous favor.

"What are the two junior brothers talking about?"
Suddenly, Zhou Yang walked up to Zhao Xun and Chen Xuanli. He glanced at the two piles of gravel on the ground from the corner of his eyes, then looked at them and asked with a smile.
"It's nothing, I'm just speculating with Junior Brother Zhao on what treasures there are in the Foundation Establishment Cave. What does Senior Brother Zhou think?" Chen Xuanli was startled, but his rough black face was very calm and he grinned.
Before Zhou Yang could speak, Sun Ming, who was not far away, couldn't hold himself back.
"Haha, fellow Taoists, the guard force at the entrance of the cave has been eliminated. Let's enter the cave quickly. I can't wait to get the treasure inside!"
Sun Ming laughed loudly with an excited face. His injuries have basically recovered, and the abnormal redness on his face at this moment shows his excitement.
"Let's go." The cultivator surnamed Wang said in a dull voice. The injuries on his burly body had gradually healed.
Seeing everyone walking towards the Foundation Establishment Cave, Chen Xuanli and Zhao Xun looked at each other, exchanged glances, and followed behind, approaching the two doors made of black spiritual iron.
"Open it!!!"
The casual cultivator surnamed Wang came to the black iron gate, roared low, and supported the gate with his hands like cattail leaf fans.
His arms swelled up, and his muscles became tangled together, exerting force suddenly!
Boom!
The black iron gate slowly opened, and the gap in the middle became wider and wider. The light coming from behind the gap made everyone unable to open their eyes.
Once the gap could accommodate people, everyone couldn't wait to file in.
Walking inside, what comes into view is a spacious hall with complete stone tables and stone benches. On the stone walls on the left and right sides, there are also ancient books placed. It seems that the foundation-building monks usually receive guests here.
A place for friends.
On the left and right sides of the hall, there is a wing room on each side, which is also completely open at this moment.
After exploring the hall and a room, the value of the things obtained was not high. There were only some ancient books on spiritual practice that were of some use. Seeing that no one wanted them, Zhao Xun pocketed them all.
There is only one last room left to search.
This made everyone look a little unhappy. They finally entered the cave of a foundation-building monk. Isn’t this the only thing that can help?
However, when everyone entered the last room, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
On the futon directly above the room, a white jade skeleton sits cross-legged, with its head lowered and its hands on its knees. It is unknown how many years it has been dead.
Under the white jade bones, there are several items scattered on a white marble table.
They are a gray jade slip, a bottle of elixir, three puppet instruments, and a square stone with mysterious runes engraved on it!
Seeing the stone with runes engraved on it, Chen Xuanli's pupils shrank, his footsteps stomped on the ground, and his body turned into a strong wind and flew towards the white marble table.
Bake!
The next moment, extremely hot fire broke out from behind, and Chen Xuanli roared: "Junior Brother Zhao!"
"Huh!" The cold light was harsh, Zhao Xun's sleeves and robes swung, and the Han Ming Mirror came out and floated in front of him. He looked at Sun Ming who was holding the flaming bird fan with cold eyes.
"Puppet inheritance! Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Sun Ming, who was originally enthusiastic and easy-going, shouted wildly with his eyes at this moment.
Song Yi and Wang Sanxiu, who were standing next to him, also took action at the same time. A golden flag was suspended in the air, and the spiritual patterns continued to spread, transforming into swords and slashing at Zhao Xun and Chen Xuanli.
The frosty light of the Hanming Mirror collides with the flames of the Flaming Bird Fan.
After all, the flaming bird fan was a top-grade magic weapon, and the cold light illuminated by the Han Ming Mirror was a bit unmatched. Zhao Xun's face changed slightly, and he quickly injected the powerful magic power in his body to block the opponent's attack.
Chi! Chi! Chi!
Several swords formed by the formation fell down, Zhao Xun pinched his fingers, and the black stone shield rotated around his body, guarding him firmly inside, and no matter how attacked by those swords, they could not hurt him at all.
Boom!
The ground shook, and the casual cultivator surnamed Wang roared and came to kill. His fist burst out with golden light, and his momentum was astonishing.
Zhao Xun caught a glimpse of this person coming towards him from the corner of his eye, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Since he mastered the "Mysterious Gold Finger" spell, he has never used it in actual combat. He doesn't know if this person's body can block it.
The power of Xuanjin Finger!
"Wang Daoyou, your opponent is me!"
At this moment, Zhou Yang stood beside Zhao Xun and said calmly.
Dozens of green vines flew out from his sleeves. These vines grew rapidly and locked the strong body of Wang Sanxiu, making him unable to move!
However, Zhou Yang knew very well that his Aoki spell could only control this person for a short time.
With a pinch of his hand, another flying sword weapon flew out from the storage bag, turned into sword light and quickly chopped off the head of the casual cultivator surnamed Wang.
"Bang!" The casual cultivator surnamed Wang was furious. His body swelled into a height of three meters in an instant, and the green vines broke every inch. He looked up, and with one move of his hands, he clamped Zhou Yang's flying sword.
"Rewind!"
Zhao Xun's expression changed slightly, he put the Han Ming Mirror to his side, and retreated backwards.
With the obstruction of Zhao Xun and Zhou Yang, Chen Xuanli had already taken the stone with mysterious runes in his hand. Seeing the two retreating, he didn't care to collect other things, and hurriedly took out the ruler magic weapon to defend the enemy with the two.
.
Zhao Xun and Zhou Yang glanced at the white marble table and put away the jade bottle, gray jade slip, and a puppet magic weapon respectively.
Seeing this scene, the faces of Sun Ming, Song Yi, and Wang Sanxiu, who were opposite, changed drastically.
"Three junior brothers, hand over the treasures, and I can let you walk out of Shuilian Mountain safely. Otherwise, don't blame senior brothers for being ruthless!" Sun Ming said with a gloomy face.
On Sun Ming's side, there is a monk surnamed Wang, who is at the seventh level of Qi training, and he also has a high-grade magic weapon, so he is undoubtedly the one with the upper hand.
