Since Xiao Yi appeared alone, the entrance to the relic, which had just seemed lively, instantly quieted down considerably.
This was due not only to Xiao Yi's current strength as a Nine-Star Dou Zun but also to his background with the Starfall Pavilion!
After all, the Starfall Pavilion now has a Dou Sheng powerhouse like the Medicine Saint!
They knew that their goal in coming to this ancient Dou Sheng Relic was to glimpse an Opportunity to advance to Dou Sheng... If they were to directly conflict with the Starfall Pavilion, the Pavilion currently possessed a living Dou Sheng whose power was absolute!
Therefore, everyone present, with the exception of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, became much more reserved.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi felt the benefits of having a strong background for the first time.
It was no wonder that the disciples of those great Families always liked to announce their origins.
However, in the very next second, the spatial Seal that had been still for a long time suddenly emitted bursts of roaring sounds, clearly a sign that the Seal was dissipating.
Seeing this scene, many people instantly became restless, but Xiao Yi still stood with his arms crossed, unmoved.
Just like the relic of the Heavenly Cold Demon Saint before, many Loose Cultivators immediately lost their patience, instantly flashed forward, and rushed up.
And the result was unsurprising; they were instantly struck down and killed by the energy ripples caused by the spatial rupture!
Xiao Yi was also unhurried, slowly raising his hand to form an energy shield, blocking it with extreme ease.
Seeing this, others followed suit, condensing their Dou Qi to construct energy shields for defense.
But there were still some Loose Cultivators whose strength was insufficient, and they failed to withstand the energy impact, falling directly here.
Seeing this scene, a hint of surprise appeared on the face of Feng Qing'er, who usually looked arrogant:
"What a terrifying spatial Seal..."
"After countless years, it can still possess such terrifying impact force! Is this the power of an ancient Dou Sheng powerhouse?"
Feng Qing'er couldn't help but murmur in her heart!
After all, although Feng Qing'er originated from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, she was only from a collateral Family within the clan, and certainly had no Opportunity to witness the Dou Sheng powerhouses of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix.
Therefore, it was not strange for her to have such a reaction at this moment.
However, Xiao Yi was the calmest person among everyone present.
After all, Xiao Yi usually dealt with the strongest person of the era, like Xiao Xuan, so a mere Dou Sheng Relic like this couldn't cause too much disturbance in Xiao Yi's heart.
And when the spatial Seal dissipated, a stone door appeared.
On both sides of the stone door, ten Puppets stood, and they were subsequently activated.
These ten Puppets were entirely brilliant silver, which indicated that their Rank was not high; they were only at the Peak Dou Zong level.
However, even these ten Peak Dou Zong Puppets made many forces hesitant to move for a time.
They all stood still, choosing to wait and see.
These ten Puppets might seem like a headache to others, but for Xiao Yi, they were a form of assistance.
Because the Puppet Refining Technique Xiao Yi learned from the Refining Puppet Saint had not yet been truly put into practical use!
This was a suitable Opportunity.
"Everyone..."
"The Dou Sheng Relic is right in front of you, yet you are still so timid. Aren't you afraid the Opportunity will be snatched away?"
"Then this young man will go ahead..."
Xiao Yi smiled slightly.
As soon as his voice fell, his figure flashed, and he was the first to rush into the Puppet formation.
"This brat relies on his high Realm and is so arrogant.
The dangers of this Dou Sheng Relic are not as simple as he thinks..."
"However, having him deal with these Puppets and scout the path for us is not bad..."
Huang Xuan's mouth curved slightly upward, believing that everything was still under his control.
However, Xiao Yi entered the midst of the Puppets without directly engaging them!
Instead, he lightly tapped his glabella, and his Late Heaven Realm Soul Power instantly surged out, completely enveloping the ten Puppets.
Golden streams of Soul Power drilled into the Puppets, driving out the original Soul imprints within them, and replacing them with Xiao Yi's Soul imprint!
Thus, he subdued these Puppets.
Although these Dou Zong Puppets couldn't be of much help to the current Xiao Yi, it was a free Puppet, and he wouldn't refuse it.
It could still be considered a force that could increase the strength of the Starfall Pavilion.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qing'er realized that Xiao Yi's goal was actually to subdue and refine these Puppets.
Her eyes instantly sharpened, and she let out a low cry:
"Does this brat intend to subdue these Puppets right in front of everyone?"
"His audacity is a bit too great..."
Hearing this, the white-haired man behind Feng Qing'er sneered and said:
"Qing'er, don't panic..."
"If we can't get something, no one else should think of getting it either..."
Feng Qing'er: "But Xiao Yi is a Nine-Star Dou Zun. Even if everyone here joined forces, they probably wouldn't be his match..."
The white-haired man's mouth curved slightly upward: "So what if he is a Nine-Star Dou Zun?"
"He is currently distracted, subduing and refining these Puppets.
This is his weakest moment.
If we can seize this Opportunity to strike and eliminate him, we can avoid some trouble..."
As the white-haired man finished speaking, without waiting for the agreement of Feng Qing'er or Huang Xuan, he instantly flashed out.
He charged toward Xiao Yi, who was among the Puppets!
However, the white-haired man clearly underestimated the strength of a Nine-Star Dou Zun.
Moreover, Xiao Yi was not only a Nine-Star Dou Zun but also possessed a Heavenly Realm Soul.
The white-haired man was merely a Two-Star Dou Zun.
As he condensed his Dou Qi and charged toward Xiao Yi, just as he rushed near Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi merely gave him a look, and the Nine-Star Dou Zun's pressure instantly descended!
The white-haired man was instantly suppressed and rooted to the spot.
A trace of killing intent flashed in Xiao Yi's eyes.
He turned his head coldly to look at the white-haired man and asked softly:
"A sneak attack?"
"Has the Heavenly Demon Phoenix become this lowly?"
Although Xiao Yi's voice was soft, the killing intent contained within it instantly swept through the space!
Feeling the fierce killing intent emanating from Xiao Yi, the white-haired man was already shaking all over.
He spoke tremblingly:
"I..."
"I come from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan! You cannot kill me!"
"If you kill me today, there will be no place for you to hide in the Central Plains!"
Hearing the white-haired man's threat, Xiao Yi was unmoved, even finding it somewhat amusing:
"The Heavenly Demon Phoenix?"
"Do you truly think this Venerable fears your Heavenly Demon Phoenix?"
"You were the one who launched the sneak attack first today.
It is perfectly justifiable for this Venerable to kill you!"
Seeing that the situation was bad, Elder Huang Xuan also flashed forward, instantly appearing in front of the white-haired man, and explained to Xiao Yi:
"Little friend, please calm your anger..."
"We are in the wrong regarding this matter..."
"We know that even if everyone from our clan present here combined their strength, they would not be the little friend's match..."
"But if the little friend acts purely on impulse today, the consequences are far beyond what you can bear..."
"Including the Starfall Pavilion behind you, which might also be implicated and perish along with you!"
