Chapter 169: An Unprecedented Check-in Failure

The human-shaped creature exuded a golden Sagely might. It was actually reviving the broadsword in its hand and the broadsword exuded a Supreme Sage might.

Qin Chen was surprised. The human-shaped creature had no signs of life, so he didn’t expect it could use a Supreme Sage weapon. This was simply just strange.

At this moment, the human-shaped creature activated the Supreme Sage weapon and slashed at Qin Chen. With the enhancement of the weapon, the power of this attack reached the full power of a Supreme Sage. If he was hit, even Qin Chen would not be able to withstand it.

Facing such a powerful attack, Qin Chen did not dare to underestimate it. His eyes focused, and he activated his Chqtic Holy Body. He struck out with the Heavenly Desolation Emperor Fist and fused it with a trace of the rule of force, making its power even more terrifying. The punch directly scattered the golden light emitted by the human-shaped living being.

The Heavenly Desolation Emperor Fist then landed on the human-shaped creature’s left shoulder. With a clang as if two pieces of chaotic divine metal clashed, the human-shaped creature’s arm was cut off and sent flying. It was knocked back and once sent into the wall made of divine materials.

The big scorpion was shocked by Qin Chen’s combat strength. Such a terrifying punch could kill him directly. One should know that this kid was only a Sage King!

Creak! Creak!

The human-shaped creature moved its dented and bent body and got up again. Qin Chen’s eyes widened in surprise. He couldn’t help but be curious. How did a human-shaped creature come into being? Wasn’t it a tad too solid?!

“Damn, this thing is too sturdy!” The big scorpion cried out in alarm.

The human-shaped creature began to move again. Even though it had lost an arm, its speed did not decrease. It charged over again with his large saber.

Qin Chen took out the Sage-slaying Bow and nocked the Sage-slaying arrow. The Sage runes were activated, and the arrowhead glowed with golden light. He shot the arrow and pierced the human-shaped creature’s head.

However, even though its head had been split open, the human-shaped creature did not stop. It still came to Qin Chen and slashed out without any emotion.

Qin Chen used the Thirty-three Heavens to defend himself, blocking the attack. Then, he quickly struck out with his palm, beheading the human-shaped creature.

After losing its head, the human-shaped creature finally stopped moving. The saber left its hand and floated in the air. The divinity of the human-shaped creature disappeared, and it lay powerlessly on the ground.

The big scorpion’s eyes were burning as it looked at the big blade. It forced a smile at Qin Chen and said, “Kid, you already have so many treasures. Since I’m the successor of the Demon God, please give this one to me!”

Qin Chen rolled his eyes. However, he wasn’t really interested in the saber. Although it was a Supreme Sage weapon, he didn’t like using sabers. Thus, he threw it to the big scorpion.

“Haha, I knew you would have a conscience. I didn’t risk my life to accompany you to the Demon Emperor Tomb in vain,” The big scorpion was overjoyed, fondling the saber fondly. It kept praising Qin Chen for being loyal and a good friend.

Qin Chen ignored the scorpion and moved the headless body of the human-shaped creature to the side. He really wanted to know how the creature was made. Not only did it have extremely strong combat power, but it also had incredible vitality. If it could be mass-produced, it could allow him to defeat any faction on the Canglan Continent.

The big scorpion walked over and saw that Qin Chen was actually studying the creature’s corpse. It showed a look of disgust and clicked its tongue, “I didn’t expect you to have such a fetish.”

Qin Chen was speechless. What was in this guy’s head? Could it be that it became a retard after staying here for 10000 years?

“This should be a puppet,” Qin Chen said in a deep voice, “If I can find a way to make it, I can make an army of puppets when we get out. By then, it will be enough to conquer the entire nine Heavens and ten lands.”

Hearing Qin Chen’s words, the big scorpion was tempted. It squatted, its face almost touching the ground, and looked at the puppet’s corpse carefully.

With a thought, Qin Chen stored the human-shaped puppet’s corpse in his spatial artifact, preparing to take it out and study it carefully then. However, his action caused the big scorpion to be dissatisfied, and it chattered, “Half of the puppet is mine. If you can figure out the method to make them, you’ll have to make a hundred for me.”

“No way!” Qin Chen spat out these two words and walked towards the back hall in the south without looking back. The big scorpion followed beside him and bargained with him along the way. Unable to withstand the big scorpion’s coaxing and pestering, Qin Chen finally compromised. If he really managed to learn the method to make the human-shaped puppet, he could help the big scorpion make one, but the premise was that the latter had to pay for the materials.

The two of them arrived at the back hall, where the door was tightly shut. Qin Chen tried to push the door open but found that he couldn’t. Even after using the rule of force, he still couldn’t open the door.

Helplessly, Qin Chen and the big scorpion could only head to the side palace on the west.

Arriving at the west hall, Qin Chen was shocked to find that the place was exactly the same as the east hall. If not for the fact that one was facing east and the other was facing west, Qin Chen would have suspected that he had fallen into an illusion again.

When they pushed open the door, a medicinal fragrance wafted out. Qin Chen and the big scorpion walked in to find many pill bottles on the ground, as well as rotten pills scattered all over the place.

In the depths of the hall was a golden pill floating in a golden transparent ball of light. The pill’s fragrance was very mesmerizing. Qin Chen was very familiar with it. It was the Supreme Sage pill that he had once obtained from checking in.

However, the quality of this Supreme Sage pill was obviously higher than the one he had obtained from checking in. It should be of the peerless grade. If he ate it, not only could it improve his cultivation, but it could probably also save his life at a critical moment.
