Chapter 741: Shooting Oneself in the Foot

Lin Bei’s expression was indifferent. Without hesitation, he attacked. Endless Heaven Sealing Power surged out of his body and swept towards the people controlled by Qiqi in the distance.
“Qiqi, help me control them. I want to refine these people… into human puppets!”
“Okay.”
Qiqi nodded gently and pointed her finger into the distance. Be it the King-tier experts or the Monarch-tier experts above the Great Dao, the light in their eyes instantly dimmed.
After just one attack, their souls were already on the verge of destruction.
However, Qiqi did not continue to attack. She wanted to help Lin Bei suppress their souls completely and refine them into human puppets to endure eternal pain and suffering.
Just like that, Lin Bei had been silently refining the Human Puppets with all his might. He had actually mastered this method a long time ago. Back when he fought Heaven’s Will City in the Ocean Blue Planet’s virtual world, he had seen how terrifying the Human Puppet Technique was. Now that his strength had increased greatly, the method he used was naturally even more terrifying.
However, he had never wanted to use this sorcery all along. But now, Qiqi told him that there were actually a few traitors of the Heavenly Mystic Realm hidden among these people. This was unbearable.
The word “traitor” seemed to have triggered a hidden switch, causing his heart to twitch violently.
Unknown anger instantly engulfed his entire body.
Just like that, when Lin Bei refined the human puppet, Qiqi stayed by his side silently.
After an unknown period of time, when the last Human Puppet was refined, Lin Bei heaved a sigh of relief. His body swayed and he was about to fall to the ground.
“Are you all right?”
Qiqi reached out to support the exhausted Lin Bei and asked with concern.
“I’m… I’m fine. I just used up too much strength and am a little exhausted. I’ll be fine after resting for a while.”
Lin Bei squeezed out a smile and comforted her.
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble. I can reverse time and restore your condition to its peak.”
Qiqi heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that. Then, she chanted a spell silently. Then, a grayish-white power landed on Lin Bei. The latter felt dazed. When he came back to his senses, the power in his body had already recovered to its peak. Other than that, he was in a good state.
“This is…”
Lin Bei was shocked and wanted to ask.
“Hehe, it’s just a small technique I figured out in my spare time. With this, you won’t have to rest when we do it in the future. I think this ability is very good. Why don’t… we call it revitalizing?”
“Ahem, this name is a little… um, not too good. Why don’t… we call it Nirvana? It’s like a phoenix being reborn. What do you think?”
Lin Bei coughed dryly and touched his nose.
“Hmm… Alright, as long as you like it. Then let’s call it Nirvana. But you’re not allowed to find excuses in the future…”
“Ahem, that… I’ll definitely do it next time!”
Lin Bei coughed violently and shouted hurriedly.
“That’s more like it.”
When Qiqi heard this, she smiled and nodded. Then, she looked at the people who were frozen in the distance and frowned. “These people have been refined into human puppets by you. What do you plan to do with them?”
“Of course, I’ll send them back and let them act step by step. Then… we’ll catch the big fish behind us!”
Lin Bei’s gaze was cold as he said in a low voice, “I don’t believe that these people are the only ones behind this matter. There might be someone hiding even deeper behind them. When the time comes, I’ll catch them all in one fell swoop!”
“Then their souls…”
“Keep them. I told you, I’ll make them wish they were dead.”
Lin Bei’s tone was cold. “Moreover, I have to search for some useful information from their souls.”
“Alright, don’t worry and go boldly. Even if their souls are accidentally destroyed, as long as it’s not too long, I can use the ability to reverse time and condense their souls again. They won’t die.”
Qiqi blinked and smiled.
When Lin Bei heard this, his furrowed brows relaxed a little. However, when he thought of Qiqi’s terrifying strength, he frowned again. He looked at Qiqi and saw her playful smile. He sighed helplessly and said, “Sigh, I’m still too weak compared to the current you. Looks like I have to quickly increase my strength…”
Actually, Lin Bei was not weak anymore.
Moreover, he had only stepped onto the path of cultivation for a short period of time. To be honest, his cultivation talent was definitely unprecedented.
However, although his strength increased quickly, as his strength increased, he realized that the surrounding peak combat strength actually broke through his horizons again and again, pressing down on him until it became difficult for him to breathe.
In the past, when he was on the Ocean Blue Planet, he felt that the Order Law Realm was the peak. But soon, he was slapped in the face and discovered that there was still the Original Realm above the Order Law Realm!
Later on, he thought that the Original Realm was very powerful, but he immediately discovered an even stronger Heaven Splitting Realm!
After that, higher realms appeared one after another, pushing Lin Bei, who originally wanted to stop and catch his breath, forward. He did not have the time to admire the scenery along the way.
Until now, he already knew that with his current strength, he could only be considered second or third-rate in the ancient martial arts era. This made him even more anxious and eager to increase his strength.
However… with his current strength, it had become a little slow to continue improving. Therefore, he was prepared to search for world fragments and continue to accelerate. However, world fragments were rare and extremely difficult to find. If he wanted to increase his strength greatly in a short period of time, it was obviously unstable to rely on world fragments.
Therefore, he had to find another stable way to increase his strength.
This way, he could walk more steadily and quickly.
Why don’t…
Lin Bei’s gaze landed on Qiqi. He frowned and thought for a moment before asking, “Qiqi, with your current strength, can you adjust the time density of the pocket space to the time density of the outside world?”
When Qiqi heard this, she thought for a moment and nodded. “Yes, but… I have to stay in my pocket space all the time. If that’s the case, I won’t be able to accompany you all the time. Moreover, under that situation, I can barely divert my attention to other things, so you…”
“Don’t worry, I’ll accompany you in the pocket space. Moreover, I can teach you the cultivation method of the power of stars. When the time comes, you can also summon the Shadow of Stars clone like me and accompany my clone to search for world fragments outside. This way, it’s the best of both worlds.”
Lin Bei explained with a smile.
As expected, after Qiqi heard Lin Bei’s words, she came back to her senses and smiled maliciously. “Alright, quickly teach me the cultivation method of the power of the stars. Actually… I want to try using so many clones with you…” “Ahem, stop! I suddenly feel that this is quite good. Why don’t…”
“No! A gentleman can’t go back on his word! How can you go back on your word? We agreed that you would teach me the power of the stars and summon the Shadow of Stars clone! You can’t go back on your word!”
When Lin Bei heard this, he immediately had a headache.
Compared to cultivation, he still felt that the crazy Qiqi was even more terrifying.
Sigh… I didn’t expect to shoot myself in the foot this time.
