Tang Huanhuan entered the room and was momentarily stunned. The bronze scroll was still floating in mid-air, surrounded by a faint spiritual light flickering.
"It's actually floating in the air. How magical! But, what's inside?"
Tang Huanhuan's beautiful eyes blinked as she glanced at Qin Yang. The boy beside her was becoming more and more inscrutable to her.
"I don't know. I haven't looked either. Let's look together; after all, this item originally belonged to your Tang family."
Qin Yang shook his head and said.
After breaking the array, he didn't open it immediately, since it originally belonged to the Tang family. However, the contents inside shouldn't be dangerous.
"You three stand behind me."
Qin Yang said, also as a precaution.
"Oh."
The three girls nodded and stood behind Qin Yang.
"Open!"
Qin Yang pinched a seal with his fingers and uttered softly. In the air, the bronze scroll slowly unfolded.
As the joined bronze scroll spread to both sides, a fierce sword intent and cyan light suddenly surged within the room.
"What exactly is inside?"
Tang Huanhuan was full of curiosity, her beautiful eyes unwaveringly fixed on the unfolding scroll.
The objects on the scroll gradually appeared in the view of the four, and as the scroll completely opened, the raging sword intent and cyan light in the room withdrew.
"This is a... sealed puppet?!"
Qin Yang's pupils suddenly shrank as he stared intently at the object on the scroll, his eyes filled with astonishment.
On the scroll was a figure draped in bronze armor, wearing a bronze helmet, and holding a sharp three-foot Cyan Peak Sword — a bronze soldier.
The bronze soldier's eyes were tightly shut, and the sword in his hand was chillingly cold. It's not hard to imagine what an overwhelming aura would erupt once those eyes opened!
"The painting inside is actually of a bronze soldier, a bit like the warriors among the Qin Terracotta Warriors."
Tang Huanhuan's clear bright eyes blinked, with strange colors flickering in her gaze.
"Come."
Qin Yang beckoned with his right hand, and the floating bronze scroll flew into his hand.
Around the bronze soldier were strange black web-like patterns, binding the bronze soldier. These black patterns converged to form a large "brand" character on the bronze soldier's abdomen.
"It's a divine consciousness imprint!"
Qin Yang's gaze slightly narrowed, as he sensed a faint wave of divine consciousness on the scroll. However, after thousands of years, that divine consciousness wave wasn't particularly strong.
"This bronze soldier really is a puppet."
Qin Yang's eyes were filled with surprise and joy, and he thought with astonishment.
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, there are countless Immortal Cultivation Techniques, and myriad paths. There are Body Cultivators who specialize in tempering the body, with physique strength unmatched by other cultivators, Ghost Cultivators who mainly practice the Yin Corpse Ghost Curse, Evil Cultivators filled with malevolent energy, and Sword Cultivators who focus on the Sword Control Skill, like Qin Yang. Of course, there are also Array Cultivators who majorly use arrays as their main offense among others, and the list goes on.
Among these different types of cultivators, there are also Puppet Cultivators who specialize in refining puppets, using them mainly as attack or defense means.
The bronze soldier sealed within the scroll should be a puppet of some Puppet Cultivator from ancient Earth.
Puppet Cultivators specifically delve into Puppetry Skill, hence, the power of the same puppet in a Puppet Cultivator's hands is much stronger than in other types of cultivators' hands. However, this does not mean that other types of cultivators cannot use it.
Many times, having an extra puppet is equivalent to having an extra combat power. Therefore, not only are Puppet Cultivators enthusiastic about puppets, but other types of cultivators also treasure certain puppets.
"Haha, this is great."
Qin Yang thought with great joy. Although he is a Sword Cultivator, having a puppet as a free helper or even a powerful aid is certainly a bonus.
"However, to use this puppet, the divine consciousness imprint on it must be erased first. Right now, it's still impossible to use this puppet."
Qin Yang felt a trace of regret. Cultivators can only open the Sea of Consciousness and generate divine consciousness within it upon advancing to the Immortal Master Realm.
Qin Yang is currently still in the Immortal Warrior Realm and does not have divine consciousness, so he cannot erase the divine consciousness imprint on the puppet to refine it for his own use.
"Qin Yang, what use does this bronze soldier have?"
Seeing Qin Yang's excitement, Tang Huanhuan asked curiously.
"Heh, it's very useful to me. But, you wouldn't understand even if I explained. Look, as per our agreement, I'll help you with the racing, and this scroll will be mine."
Qin Yang said with a cheerful smile, putting away the bronze scroll.
Once he advances to the Immortal Master Realm and generates divine consciousness, he could attempt to erase the divine consciousness imprint on it and stamp his own, thus releasing the bronze soldier puppet to form combat power.
"Whatever, if you don't want to say, then don't."
Tang Huanhuan huffed. This guy is always so mysterious.
"How about this: besides the race, consider that I, Qin Yang, owe you sisters a favor."
Qin Yang thought for a moment and said.
Even on the Immortal Yuan Continent, a puppet is quite precious. He could see that this bronze soldier was not an ordinary item. Just helping them with a race was quite a deal; these two girls had a nice character, and they probably wouldn't make things difficult for him. Agreeing to owe them a favor didn't seem like a big deal.
"Owing a favor? Hehe, alright."
Tang Huanhuan's lively eyes turned, nodding with a smile. This favor wasn't part of the agreement, so why not take it. Although she didn't think there was anything she and her sister couldn't solve.
"However, first, you must ensure we win the race. Our sisters can't lose face again."
Tang Huanhuan said.
"No problem. If we lose, I'll cover the stakes."
Qin Yang smiled confidently. With his cultivator senses and reaction speed, unless there's an accident, winning the race shouldn't be a problem for him.
"Sister, this time we should bet thirty million with that Qiu Dafeng. I want to win back with interest what we lost before. How about it?"
Tang Huanhuan turned her gaze to Tang Yingying and asked.
Upon hearing this, Tang Yingying thought for a moment, with a sparkle flowing in her beautiful eyes, and said, "If Qin Yang can ensure victory, perhaps we can place a larger, more meaningful bet."
"What do you mean?"
Tang Huanhuan was puzzled.
Qin Yang and Long Meiqing also turned their attention to Tang Yingying.
"Huanhuan, you're aware of the purpose of that Asakawa Kaori woman from Japan in coming to Huaxia, right?"
Tang Yingying looked at Huanhuan and said.
"Sister, you're talking about that Asakawa Kaori. That woman is eyeing the Qiu Family's Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms."
Tang Huanhuan said.
"Yes, that's right. Asakawa Kaori is precisely targeting the Qiu Family's newly developed Fire Dance Cherry Blossoms."
Tang Yingying nodded, a trace of solemnity in her voice.
"What does this bet have to do with a Japanese woman?"
Qin Yang raised an eyebrow and asked.
