Chapter 477 Puppet Doll of War

“Meow, haha, it’s little Yiruo. It’s been a long time. Come on, let your, meow, uncle hug you…” Fat Cat Evil Moon, standing on Ding Hao’s shoulder, laughing stealthily, suddenly opened its claws and jumped over to Li Yiruo.

“Hey ga-ga…” Mengmeng jumped up alertly and blew out a small bubble with its mouth.

“Meow, playing bubbles is the primary thing for children. Haha, how can I, your uncle Evil Moon, be trapped by such thing…” Evil Moon confidently reached out its claws.

Its pink little claws were magical weapons that could even break the bodies of evil ones at the levels of the Demon King and the Demon Royal. They were extremely sharp, let alone up against a small bubble. Who knew that the situation would be completely out of everyone’s expectations? Fat Cat quickly screamed in panic, “What? Why? What’s going on? Why? I can’t break it with my claws?”

Fat Cat was trapped in the bubble, with only its four claws pouncing. Unfortunately, no matter how hard it tried, it could not break through the thin and fragile transparent crystal wall.

Ding Hao was also shocked.

Ding Hao had seen that the little dolphin-shaped creature opened its cute mouth and trapped a huge ferocious beast inside the bubble. Ding Hao did not care about it too much, but at the moment, he was shocked. Because in the transparent bubble, Ding Hao clearly felt a trace of the aura of the power of rules, just like the aura that was contained in the broken tile of the Magic Doll of Scapegoat. Although it was very weak, it still gave people a faint feeling of heart palpitations.

That little dolphin was not simple.

Any creature with the slightest bit of karma with the power of rules was extremely frightening.

It seemed that Li Yiruo was really lucky. Even from then on, she had gained nothing in the Sage Battlefield. Depending on the little dolphins alone, she was already extremely lucky to defeat all the other people’s opportunities.

“Mengmeng, stop playing.” Li Yiruo comforted her pet with a smile.

It was only then that Mengmeng opened its mouth and took a deep breath. The bubble broke suddenly, and Evil Moon jumped out of it with a strange scream.

“Little loach, this round doesn’t count. Sooner or later, your, meow, uncle will let you know how powerful I am!” Evil Moon had never been so embarrassed before. Its heart was full of hatred, but it didn’t dare to continue provoking Mengmeng. He rushed to the back of Ding Hao’s head like a white light, and it could only make some polite remarks.

“Hey ga-ga…”

Mengmeng stood up with its forelegs gesturing with a stiff middle finger. Its sapphire-like big eyes were full of disdain.

What a human gesture!

Although that little dolphin could not speak in a human language, it was full of spirituality and was no weaker than Evil Moon.

Both Ding Hao and Li Yiruo laughed.

Shenzhou-1 sprinted toward the southeast, like a silver shuttle breaking through the blue sky.

Since Ding Hao’s meeting with Li Yiruo, the weather had been surprisingly good over the next few days.

Along the way, he did not encounter any fierce beasts.

The group of people moved at a very fast speed, day and night, and they might have gone at least hundreds of thousands of kilometers. They passed through forests, grasslands, vast lakes, hills, and even ice valleys, and came to see countless wonderful scenes.

The region and weather changes within the Sage Battlefield were extremely strange, as though they were different landscapes in impassable regions. The regions seemed to have been taken out by some force and mixed together stiffly. In some regions, green grass was rippling like waves, but after Ding Hao and his friends passed through an invisible dividing line, thousands of miles of frozen land immediately showed up before them. From a distance of 10 feet, one could see that on the left was luxurious grass, and on the right was thousand-year-old ice…

“It’s said that the Highest Heaven is located in a vast area of ice. Because of such topographic features, the number of all kinds of beasts here is relatively small, and it is extremely cold. Once the talents of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan leave the Sage Battlefield, the area can also be closed in time. Even if no one has arrived for a thousand years, the area can still be preserved as before…”

The eldest brother of the Three Emperors of Ning Province introduced it.

These days, the three proud princes of the Tianning Dynasty had become much more low-profile.

The first day that Li Yiruo came on the boat, the third of the Three Emperors of Ning Province personally apologized for his rudeness outside Giant Holy City that day. Perhaps they also noticed that Li Yiruo was Ding Hao’s lover, so they had to lower their status. After all, in that deal, Ding Hao held an important piece of the map, and he occupied a dominant position.

Ding Hao nodded, but he did not speak.

According to the schedule, they would be able to reach the legendary Highest Heaven in five days.

He returned to the cabin and continued to carry out his cultivation.

Time flew by quickly.

When he was at leisure, Ding Hao would come out to chat with Li Yiruo.

The two of them sat on the deck at the head of the ship. Looking at the endless wonderful scenery on all sides, they themselves created a romantic view.

After the little dolphin left the water, it turned into a small golden fish the size of a palm, floating on Li Yiruo’s shoulder and swinging its beautiful big tail. After so many days of familiarity, the little fellow’s attitude toward Ding Hao was much better. Occasionally, it would jump over Ding Hao’s head and squeak, “Hey ga-ga,” and occasionally, it kissed Ding Hao’s cheek with its mouth…

Of course, her “battle” with Evil Moon was always intermittent.

These two little fellows seemed to be born enemies. Sometimes, Evil Moon would shake its white wings to fly in circles rapidly while holding Mengmeng. When they landed on the boat, Mengmeng felt dizzy, as if it was drunk and could not stand firmly. But most of the time, Evil Moon was imprisoned in the bubble, struggling and screaming…

Accompanied by these two lovely pets, Ding Hao and his friends laughed all the way.

Ding Hao took these days to prepare for the fighting on the holy road in the Highest Heaven. He refined some healing, Qi-gathering, and poison-killing elixirs. He also refined some magic medicines especially for Li Yiruo to improve her cultivation, helping her to enhance her strength. Furthermore, he refined a batch of black armor and masks with the magic materials and minerals collected along the way.

One day, they finally entered a vast snow field.

Huge snowflakes were flying in the sky, as if it was a huge mat. It was snowy white everywhere, with continuous ice peaks and glaciers rising one after another. Occasionally, one could see large lakes, rivers, and water areas…

It was freezing cold there, but some strange creatures were living in the area.

Ding Hao saw some fierce beasts similar to penguins, bears, and others on Earth in his previous life. They were huge. And there was also a monster similar to a pangolin. They were white all over, as if wearing ice armor, and could drill through and run freely on the ice…

It was a strange and magnificent ice and snow world.

Two more days passed.

“Look up ahead… Ah, that must be the Twelve Peaks of the Divine Column.” The eldest of the Three Emperors of Ning Province pointed at the 12 towering ice peaks that rose up into the sky in front of him and shouted, “We came from the southwest. Seeing the Twelve Peaks of the Divine Column means that we are in the control area of the Highest Heaven. Be careful, everyone. There may be a Puppet Doll of War around us. Don’t clash with them!”

But before his voice died away—

“Boom!”

An ice layer suddenly cracked.

A silver light burst forth from it and instantly came at Shenzhou-1 with a piercingly cold wind blowing in their faces.

It was a statue of ice crystals at a height of more than 20 meters. It was roughly like a human figure with two wings on its back, but some parts of its body deliberately had traces of wild beasts. Some of its joints even had some sharp claws, and there were no signs of life on its whole body. However, its head was above its long and sharp beak-like nose, which was shining with two scarlet balls of light, which should be its eyes.

The eyes of the ice crystal statue gave off a faint glow as it carefully scanned the entire Shenzhou-1.

“Is this the so-called Puppet Doll of War?”

Ding Hao understood.

According to the Three Emperors of Ning Province, the Puppet Doll of War was a combat tool jointly created by some powerful figures of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan. It had no life or intelligence, but it could perform certain tasks. When the Human Clan and the Demon Clan were forced to leave the Sage Battlefield, it would continue to operate the Highest Heaven and be responsible for fighting, defense, maintenance, and so on.

It sounded like a robot from Earth in the previous life.

But it was much more horrible than a robot.

“The Human Clan… Two weak beasts… No threat…” A few human words came out of the ice-crystal Puppet Doll of War. The voice was cold and mechanical without any emotion. “You can enter…”

After identifying Ding Hao and the others, the ice-crystal Puppet Doll of War moved and left directly.

“What kind of weak beast is that? Don’t leave if you have the guts…” Evil Moon cursed angrily.

“Hey ga-ga…” Mengmeng also stuck out a middle finger at the back of the Puppet Doll of War.

“We can move on…” The oldest brother of the Three Emperors of Ning Province said, “This is the simplest ice-crystal Puppet Doll of War in the periphery. It combines the appearance of the Human Clan with the physique of the Demon Clan, and its combat strength is about at the level of the Five-Apertured Martial King Realm, and it is responsible for the peripheral guarding in the Highest Heaven.”

Expectedly, along the way, the Shenzhou-1 came across many Puppet Dolls of War with different appearances.

The closer Ding Hao and his friends got to the Highest Heaven, the greater the fighting capacity of the Puppet Doll of War would be.

It was said that in the Highest Heaven, two most terrifying Puppet Dolls of War were guarding quietly. Each of them had 10 percent of the attacking power of the God of War of Mysterious Frost in the Northern Region and the Demon God in the Northern Region. They were powerful enough to defeat all the opponents in that small world as one of the few unmatched existences in the Sage Battlefield.

Another day passed.

“We’re almost there. Look, that’s the Highest Heaven…” the Three Emperors of Ning Province said loudly.

Their expressions were also full of excitement.

They learned the legend and information about the Sage Battlefield from the royal library of the Tianning Dynasty and the elders of the dynasty. But in fact, it was their first time entering the Sage Battlefield. It was also the first time for them to see the Highest Heaven. They were full of yearning and expectation for such an existence, which was one of the Holy Lands of Martial Arts in the Northern Region.

Ding Hao fixed his eyes on it.

In the distance ahead, a majestic and indescribable ice peak rose into the endless silver sky. It was like a pillar supporting the sky in the myths and legends. The peak was invisible to the naked eye. With a rough look, the bottom of the giant peak was at least about a few hundred kilometers across.

“Is this the Highest Heaven?”

Ding Hao thought that it was a giant city like Giant Spirit City; he didn’t expect it to be such a giant mountain.

“From today on, put on these armors and masks. After getting into the Highest Heaven, don’t let others know where we come from for the time being…” Ding Hao took out the armored protective devices specially made these days and asked Tian Neng, Li Ting, Ai Qing, and others to put them on. These armors and masks were personally refined by him. They were engraved with inscriptions of Chinese characters and some primordial inscriptions. They not only had the ability to defend and fight, but also could block the powerful figures from peeping with their Divine Senses.

Ding Hao wanted to maintain his identity as mysterious for the time being.

Having come from a small area like Snow Province, he didn’t want others with ulterior motives to make a big fuss over them.

Of course, the Three Emperors of Ning Province didn’t need to cover it up.
