l was difficult to deal with, and they didn't dare to be careless. Following Qingting's instructions, they each chose a position and stood firm, taking out their own handy magic weapons.The Shaohua Mo...The fifth layer...

...Sixth layer.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

They advanced rapidly, reaching the sixth floor in one go.

Upon emerging from the teleportation array, everyone's expressions grew grim.

If the Tiantan is a place of trial, this level is prepared for cultivators in the late stage of forming alchemy. Although they don't have to face the encirclement of puppets in the teleportation hall, they may encounter puppet ambushes at any time during their search for the teleportation array.

After the previous run-in, they have become very taciturn.

>

The ancient hall grew larger with each level they climbed. They fought off puppets while searching blindly in the darkness.

"Watch out below!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The female cultivator with a sharp intuition suddenly spoke out in alarm.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Other people reacted quickly.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The old woman clasped her hands together, and the bronze mirror trembled, emitting a yellow glow that released a giant phantom, enveloping everyone within it and forming a layer of yellow light shield.

Meanwhile, the small shield surrounding them split into five.

‘Whoosh whoosh whoosh…’

A small shield shot down towards them, each face perfectly able to protect one person.

Dual defense instantly complete.

Qin Sang stared at the movements of the two magic treasures, confirming that there were no loopholes in his defenses before retracting his gaze. He would not hand over his life to others. If anything unexpected happened, he could summon the two-headed hound for help at any time.

At the same time, the man surnamed Di suddenly waved his sleeve robe, a red glow flew out from his cuff, striking down at them with lightning speed.

“Boom!”

A series of dull booms echoed through the darkness, and several shadowy figures appeared simultaneously.

>

These puppets all have the same appearance, resembling leopards in shape and build. They are clearly extremely agile at a glance. From their limbs to their heads, they are covered in black scales forming a dense armor, including their eyes. As long as they close their eyes, there is no flaw whatsoever.

Qin Sang had seen similar scales on the puppets of the fifth layer, which were very hard. The scales on these leopard puppets were obviously thicker and stronger in defense.

The leopard puppet's four claws were inlaid with razor-sharp nails. Most peculiar of all was the single horn on its head, crafted from some kind of black crystal, extremely sharp and keen.

This puppet is entirely black and can hide very well in the dark.

Moreover, their movements were completely soundless. If it hadn't been for the quick-witted female cultivator who noticed them in time, they might have waited until the puppet was close before realizing its presence.

Chixia forced the leopard puppets out from the shadows, but she only managed to slightly halt their momentum.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

These puppets didn't know what pain was. They rammed their heads together, scattering the crimson mist, then, without a sound, they charged at them.

There were as many as six puppets.

A copper mirror was set up, shooting out a beam of yellow light, knocking away a figure.

A Wu-surname cultivator controlled his shield, actively engaging with one of them.

The men surnamed Di and Qin each dealt with two corpses.

For a moment, brilliant light shone forth, and wisps of genuine energy flew about chaotically.

The female cultivator with an eager disposition stared intently at the puppets, her eyes gleaming with a peculiar light as she channeled incantations to seek their weaknesses.

"Something's wrong!"

A man surnamed Di seemed to have discovered something, his expression tightened slightly.

Just then, the leopard puppet abandoned its assault and withdrew proactively.

Everyone was baffled by this situation. As they puzzled over it, the leopard puppets suddenly gathered together. Their black eyes stared at them without any fluctuation, which was extremely eerie.

Immediately, he aimed his unicorn at them.

'Zi la…'

The tip of the unicorn suddenly flared, with lightning surging and gradually forming a sphere of electricity.

More astonishingly, the six thunderballs seemed to be merging.

The thunderball remained unseen, yet everyone could already feel the dangerous aura it possessed. To be struck by the thunderball wouldn't be pleasant at all.

"Never allow these thunderballs to merge!"

Qin Sang's complexion changed slightly, and he shouted loudly. Then, without hesitation, he urged the ebony sword, performing the Sword Qi Thunder Sound technique, and slashed at a leopard puppet. The others also realized the urgency of the situation and activated their magical treasures to attack.

Just then, the female cultivator with an aggressive nature's eyes lit up. She finally had a discovery, exclaiming, "The eyes are the weakness! And they must be hit simultaneously!"

"No wonder attacking the eyes didn't work before, so that's how it is..."

Qin Sang's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, and at the last moment, he changed his target.

The sword light flashed like lightning, bending in mid-air before plunging straight for the puppet leopard's head. Finally, the sword light flickered and split in two, aiming directly at its eyes.

>

The sword qi and thunderous sound were incredibly fast. The leopard puppet didn't even have time to close its scales, and the two eyes went dark as the ebony sword pierced through with ease.

The next moment, the leopard puppet froze abruptly. The thunderball on its horn vanished silently, and then its body seemed to be eroded by wind, dissolving into blue sand with a flick of the ebony sword.

Finally finding the weakness, everyone was energized and offered Qin Sang opportunities.

In a short time, all six leopard puppets were slain by Qin Sang's sword.

The old woman sighed, "On the sixth floor, each puppet has unique abilities, and their weaknesses are even more concealed. Their lethality far surpasses those on the lower floors. If it weren't for the destruction of the transmission hall and the corridor, with our combined strength, we would probably find it very difficult to break in and locate the transmission array."

A man surnamed Di said with a relaxed expression, “Thanks to Daoist Yin’s mastery of puppetry and Daoist Qin’s formidable swordsmanship, the two of you are perfect for dealing with puppets. Collaborating with both of you was indeed the right choice. I estimate that those who arrived before us are not as capable as we are. At our speed, we should be the first to arrive.”

"Di Dao-you, don't forget those Yuan Ying ancestors! And your Wu clan predecessors, charging in en masse, I fear they have turned the Heavenly Pagoda upside down. This old one only hopes that they won't take notice of the treasures this old one is searching for."

The old woman splashed a basin of cold water, her expression very gloomy.

The crowd retracted their smiles, yet they were helpless.

Only Qin Sang was very relaxed. He didn't covet treasures, the more things the Yuan Ying dug up, the better, for he could follow the clues and find what he wanted.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

The image of the Patriarch Yuan Ying was like a dark cloud pressing down on my heart.

Everyone remained silent and continued forward.

Having been attacked consecutively by puppets, they all managed to turn danger into safety.

After searching around the sixth layer, I finally found the teleportation array!

A vast expanse of empty land, with only a three-tiered platform floating gently. It was unassuming, and the entire hall had crumbled into nothingness. Thankfully, the teleportation array on the platform remained intact.

"Finally found it!"

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief, their faces filled with astonishment as they gazed at the teleportation array. They couldn't wait to fly over to it.

After we get to the top, do any of you fellow cultivators have plans to continue working together

A female cultivator with an impetuous nature suddenly asked.

In her disappointed gaze, the old woman shook her head and said: "I would like to ask for help, but the place I need to go is special and requires a token to enter. I only have one, and I'm afraid we can't continue to cooperate. Let's just part ways for now, maybe there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future."

Qin Sang and others also voiced their agreement.

'Whoosh...'

All eyes turned to the stone platform.

Unexpectedly

As they just arrived at the edge of the stone platform, the teleportation array suddenly lit up without warning, and a figure slowly emerged, appearing on the high platform.
