The strength of these puppets was basically comparable to that of Xiantian experts. As long as he sat inside, he would be able to greatly increase his combat strength.

Li Qing observed them from afar for a while and discovered that their fighting methods were quite different from those of the Great Thousand Worlds. Basically, they relied on those special weapons to create their destructive power, such as the strange cylinder and the Primordial Cannons.

Even a true Xiantian expert standing here might not be able to defeat this group of people. Just that puppet was already very powerful!

In comparison, the puppet that the old man was riding on seemed to be much more powerful, causing the leader to retreat repeatedly. The small puppet also suffered some damage, revealing some strange runes and parts inside.

“What a sophisticated structure. These puppets are different from the ones in the Great Thousand Worlds. Most of the puppets in the Great Thousand Worlds rely on artifact forging techniques to combine them together.”

‘”And the puppets here seem to have used some special principle to combine countless parts together to form a mechanical creation! They are intertwined, becoming even tighter and more exquisite!”

It could be seen that the level of artifact forging here was not too high, but the skill of mechanical creation could be said to be unparalleled!

Li Qing also slightly understood the situation in this world. Perhaps it was because the spiritual energy was not deep enough that the martial arts civilization did not flourish, so he embarked on another path.

The development path of using foreign objects to carry out battles!

Mechanical puppets, cylindrical weapons, and Primordial Cannons were all external conditions. Although these characters weren’t very powerful, they were able to display terrifying combat strength after cooperating with these external objects.

“Fire Burning Heaven!” The puppet on which the old man was riding suddenly stretched out two red pipes and sprayed out extremely hot flames, instantly burning the puppet in front of him to pieces.

“Are you ready? Hurry up and fire the cannon. I can’t hold on any longer!” The leader roared angrily.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt an extremely dangerous aura pervading the entire arena. An extremely dense black light gathered at the muzzle of the Primordial Cannons and instantly shot out, hitting the giant puppet on which the old man was riding.

Rumble!

It was as if heaven and earth had collapsed, and the entire valley shook. The aftermath of the explosion stirred up dust that filled the sky, and pieces of debris shot out in all directions.

“It’s a pity that such a powerful puppet was destroyed by the Desolate Ancient Cannons!” The leader on the other side sighed.

The dust settled. Just as everyone had expected, a huge hole appeared in the chest of the puppet the old man was riding on. It was basically crippled.

The old man coughed repeatedly and climbed out of the puppet with his two children. His face was ashen, “Patriarch, I still failed to preserve the bloodline of the Liu Clan!”

“Hehe, you old bastard, aren’t you just relying on a puppet to display your might? Now that you’ve lost this reliance, what are you going to use to fight us?” The leader laughed sinisterly.

“You guys are doing evil everywhere and robbing all sorts of mechanical inheritances. Aren’t you afraid that the messengers of the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace will punish you?” The old man said.

“Haha, the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace has long since declined. Right now, there are only two or three big cats left. What are you going to use to punish our Heavenly Star City?” The leader laughed loudly.

“Desolate Ancient Immortal Palace?” Li Qing was stunned. Hearing this name … could it be related to the Ancient Desolate Dao?

“It’s only your Liu Clan’s fault for not obeying our Heavenly Star City’s orders. In the end, your clan will end up in ruin. If you obediently submit earlier, wouldn’t that be great?” The leader chuckled and waved his hand, “These people no longer have any value in existence. We must silence them and kill them for me!”

The hundreds of warriors around him aimed the black cylinder at the old man and the child in the field and quickly switched it off.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Countless arrows shot out like a rainstorm. The old man closed his eyes helplessly and could only wait for death.

Right at this moment, the countless arrows in the air suddenly stopped moving. They were all suspended in mid-air, motionless.

Everyone stared blankly at this scene and couldn’t help but wipe their eyes, wondering if they had seen wrongly.

“What’s going on? Why aren’t those arrows moving?”

“What the hell? What’s going on?”

The old man opened his eyes and saw the dense, motionless arrows in the air. He was also shocked and didn’t understand what was going on.

Li Qing brought Liu Ke’er and Xiao Bai from afar and soon arrived in front of everyone.

“Who are you? Are these arrows your demonic spells?” The leader asked calmly.

Li Qing waved his hand and saw the countless arrows hanging in the air shatter, turning into dust and disappearing.

Everyone’s faces were filled with shock. They were finally certain that this was indeed done by the mysterious expert in front of them.

He could easily control the arrow through the air and even completely destroy it. His strength was absolutely unfathomable and far exceeded everyone’s imagination.

Could it be a Xiantian expert?

Moreover, ordinary Xiantian experts shouldn’t be able to do this. It was very likely that they were extremely powerful existences among Xiantian experts!

Such a terrifying existence, even the Heavenly Star City Lord had to treat it as a distinguished guest, not to mention ordinary pawns like them, how could they dare to offend him so easily?

“So it was Senior who came. I can’t see through Mount Tai. Please forgive me!” The leader’s expression immediately changed as he smiled and said.

“Are you people from Heavenly Star City?” Li Qing asked casually.

“That’s right, we came here on the orders of the City Lord to hunt down the traitor. Senior, please don’t interfere in this matter!” The leader said cautiously.

“What is your City Lord’s strength?”

“Our City Lord has already reached the eighth level of the Xiantian realm. He can be said to be the number one expert within a radius of a thousand kilometers!” The leader said proudly. There was no lack of intention to intimidate Li Qing, telling him not to act rashly.

“Eighth Xiantian … Not bad at all.” Li Qing nodded.

In this environment where spiritual energy was thin, cultivating to the eighth level of the Xiantian Realm was definitely not an easy task.

If it was in the Great Thousand Worlds, it might not be considered a powerful figure. However, in this world of stars, the number one expert within a thousand kilometers was truly worthy of his name.

“What is the origin of the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace you mentioned just now?” Li Qing asked.

“You don’t know the origin of the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace?” Everyone was shocked. This matter was basically common sense, right? There was actually someone who didn’t know?

“Forget it. Asking you guys is also troublesome. I’d better search my soul directly.” Li Qing took a step forward and arrived in front of the leader. He placed a hand on his forehead.

The leader was instantly shocked. He wanted to resist, but he found that his entire body was unable to exert any strength. Soon, his consciousness gradually blurred. Then, a wave of pain pierced into his soul caused him to let out a miserable scream.

“Let go of Boss!” Everyone was furious. Regardless of Li Qing’s strength, they all took out the cylinders in their hands and attacked him.

Li Qing waved his hand and everyone was sent flying by a huge force. Their organs were broken and they were all killed.

After a while, Li Qing finished searching his soul and finally gained some understanding of the world.

“The Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace is indeed related to the Ancient Desolate Dao!” Li Qing whispered to himself.

In ancient times, the Ancient Desolate Dao had conquered this world, leaving hundreds of disciples on duty. Who knew that the Primordial Era’s warship would never return and never descend on this world of stars again? These hundreds of disciples had been trapped in this place.

Naturally, they wouldn’t stay here and wait for their deaths. Since the Primordial Era’s warship didn’t return, it would be good for them to stay here as local emperors.

The Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace was built at that time.

These hundreds of disciples claimed to have come from the Immortal Dimension. They descended to the mortal world to save the world, and they were the messengers of the Immortal Dimension. At that time, the natives here had never seen such a powerful person before. Without any hesitation, they believed this nonsense and treated these people as messengers of the Immortal Gods.

The Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace had a tremendous impact on the development of this world. Not only did it bring about a mature culture and social system, it also spread out some martial arts cultivation methods. As a result, the martial arts in this world slowly developed and gradually evolved into the current situation.

In the beginning, the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace had enough strength to rule this world. The people below had no power to resist and were no match for them.

However, as time slowly passed, this world slowly developed and gradually matured, and the ruling power of the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace began to slowly decline.

More importantly, the spiritual energy in this world was extremely thin, and it was extremely difficult to cultivate martial arts. Therefore, the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace was also unable to sustain it. The number of experts was getting fewer and fewer, gradually declining.

In the following years, the world embarked on a new path of relying on external objects to increase its combat strength, allowing many powers to begin to flourish, enough to contend against the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace.

Unfortunately, the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace still had a mentality of looking down on external forces and methods. They were only pursuing a purely martial path and pursuing a higher realm. Such a stubborn thought made them fall behind the times and gradually be eliminated.

Until now, the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace had little influence, and its power had shrunk to the limit. Only by relying on the defensive power of the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace’s building could it last until now.

Moreover, the news that the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace was the messenger of the Immortal Dimension had been circulating until now, and no one was able to confirm whether it was true or false.

What if it’s true? At that time, the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace would invite the next Immortal from the Immortal Dimension, and then they would be able to destroy this world with ease. The consequences would be unpredictable. Therefore, no one dared to disrespect the Ancient Desolate Immortal Palace and kept offering them their services.

In today’s world, apart from an old Desolate Ancient Immortal Palace, there were also several new powers that controlled the highest authority in this world.

These new powers were a large family, eight great sects, and thirty-six great cities!

Heavenly Star City was one of the big cities!

“First Clan … Yan Clan!” When Li Qing saw this message, he was stunned.
