Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master

Chapter 1887 Hundred Puppet Array

As soon as Rocky regained his sight, he found himself in a scene that resembled the purgatory. In front

of him was a pile of human skulls and bones that were arranged orderly as if they were sacrificial

offerings.

The entire area emitted a strong evil presence which seemed to be from the remaining aura of the

martial spirits. Consequently, Rocky felt depressed, sensing what the spirits had gone through.

While he was looking around, he could not find any stairs, so he did not know how he could advance to

the upper floors. Moreover, he felt strange because he could not see any martial spirit around him,

when in fact, he sensed them before entering the door that led to the Heavenly Demon Tower.

Not knowing what exactly was happening, Rocky consulted Corey's memories again. Then, he found

out what was going on.

It turned out that at times, the warriors at the Shura Realm were permitted to enter the Heavenly

Demon Tower, but only the first three floors were opened for them. Therefore, most of the martial spirits

on the first three floors were already refined by the warriors who had visited before.

Afterward, he searched Corey's memories to find out how he could get to the second floor.

Upon acquiring the information that he needed, Rocky moved around the first floor according to what

he saw in Corey's memories. Then, about an hour later, he arrived in front of a wall.

Based on the memories, this spot should be the entrance that would lead to the second floor.

'Hmm. It seems that I still need to use my spiritual power to reveal the door.' Rocky thought for a while

and eventually released his spiritual power.

Sure enough, the moment he activated his spiritual power, the wall in front of him suddenly became

distorted. Then, like a mouth of a giant beast, it opened wide and swallowed Rocky into it.

The moment Rocky reached the second floor, he felt a strong and violent aura rushing towards him.

However, it seemed that it was not from martial spirits, but it was pure frightening resentment.

The force of this resentment was astonishing, probably because of the fact that too many strong

warriors had died here, and their negative emotions had already become too dense. After many years Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

of accumulating, it began to manifest and eventually became a terrifying force.

Shortly after, the whole second floor was filled with a green mist that Rocky was familiar with.

"Ghostly Corpse Miasma!" Having been Esteban's disciple for a long time, Rocky recognized that it was

the Ghostly Corpse Miasma. He speculated that it was formed right after the Shura Realm masters

died inside the tower. They began to condense while the corpses rotted in the demonic environment. It

was a dangerous substance that would poison one's body until it decayed and died.

Knowing how hazardous it was, Rocky did not dare to be careless. He even considered if he needed to

go back.

However, he also inferred that the whole second floor must be filled with this deadly miasma. Even if he

went back, it would be useless.

Therefore, he decided to enter the palace, and then he asked the guardian for a body protection

treasure that could withstand the Ghostly Corpse Miasma.

After obtaining the necessary treasure, he infused his spiritual power into it. Immediately after, the body

protection treasure formed a round spherical shield of spiritual energy that served as a barrier.

Then, he started walking towards the green mist. In an instant, the Ghostly Corpse Miasma gushed

towards him but was fended off by the protective barrier.

After walking on the floor for about five minutes, the Ghostly Corpse Miasma gradually subsided.

However, just as he thought that he could now breathe a sigh of relief, Rocky started encountering

hidden traps all over the place. Fortunately, with his current strength, he could easily deal with them.

But still, it took him quite a lot of time to get past them.

On his way to find the door to the third floor, he met several martial spirits, and he easily refine them.

Upon overcoming all of them, he eventually found the entrance to the third floor with the help of Corey's

memories.

On the third floor, a large open space welcomed Rocky. However, on this huge space, he saw many

human-shaped puppets that were obviously not meant for mere decorations. Moreover, the puppets

had all kinds of strange martial arts postures, and they filled the entire third floor.

"What is this? A kind of array?" Without taking any rash action, Rocky searched for Corey's memories

first. After all, he had a bad feeling about these puppets.

Sure enough, his guess was right. What he was seeing in front of him was a kind of a terrifying array

that finished off many powerful Shura Realm masters before.

It was called the Hundred Puppet Array.

Before proceeding, Rocky continued to search Corey's memories about the principle behind the array.

It seemed that if he got within five meters around the puppets, they would automatically attack the

intruder. Moreover, these puppets could use the unique skills of the Shura Race. What made them

even more frightening was that their strength was equal to Shura Realm masters.

The closer one got to the entrance of the fourth floor, the more powerful the puppets would be. Hence,

the difficulty of this floor was several times harder compared to the previous one.

"I guess this is where things get real, huh?" Rocky murmured to himself and let out a bitter smile.

However, no matter how powerful the Hundred Puppet Array was, it was not enough to hinder Rocky

from advancing.

Before approaching the array, he employed the Devilish Phantom Skill and released several phantoms.

He planned to use them to divert the attacks of the puppets while he moved forward. The greatest flaw

of these puppets was that they could only attack within five meters. Therefore, as long as he could

constantly distance himself, he would have no problem avoiding their attacks. Of course, keeping a

proper distance at all times was very ideal. After all, if he was attacked by one of the puppets, it would

be difficult for him to avoid the strikes of the other ones. Eventually, he would have to deal with

continuous surging assaults.

Then, as soon as he was ready, Rocky signaled three of the phantoms to make contact with the array.

"Let's go!" The very next moment, Rocky let the three phantoms lead the way.

As soon as his phantoms approached the puppets, they were welcomed by the unique skills of the

Shura Race. The puppets indeed possessed astonishing strength and could launch violent attacks.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

In a flash, the phantoms were hit at point-blank. However, this was just Rocky's tactic to move forward.

While the puppets were busy attacking his phantoms, he had already gone past the first two rows of

puppets that blocked his way. At the same time, he continued using the Devilish Phantom Skill to

produce more phantoms to act as decoys.

Using this strategy, Rocky easily passed through five more rows of puppets.

However, just as Rocky thought that he could effortlessly overcome the third floor, a rope that was

made of spiritual power suddenly appeared and wrapped around his arm. Immediately after, the rope

pulled him into the air.

While Rocky was suspended in the air, the puppets within his range began using their unique skills,

hurling a barrage of fierce attacks towards him.

If all of these ferocious attacks landed on him at the same time, he would definitely be doomed.

Fortunately, Rocky could still remain calm even in this kind of situation. He then activated his spiritual

power and unleashed the God-killing Sword to cut off the rope on his arm. Afterward, he waved the

sword and released a few sword shadows that instantly collided with the unique skill of the puppets in

midair.

Crash! Bang!

The collision of the tremendous powers created a huge impact and a series of explosions.

As a result, many of the nearby puppets were blown to pieces.

However, it turned out that the puppets also had regenerative abilities. After some time, they were back

to their original state as if nothing happened.

Rocky's expression became more serious. He had no choice but to force his way out of this field of

puppets while being cautious enough.

By doing so, he fought against the vicious puppets for four hours before he finally reached the last two

rows. At this point, the entrance to the fourth floor was already in sight.

However, the puppets did not make Rocky's life any easy. The strength of the last two rows was

equivalent to warriors at the medium stage of the Shura Realm. It was not that simple to fight all these

puppets alone.

But since Rocky had already fused the other half of Corey's power, he had enough strength to make a

decisive blow and finish the remaining rows of puppets. Without further ado, he brandished the God-

killing Sword. Upon exhibiting his spiritual power, a crescent-shaped sword shadow emerged,

generating an overbearing shock wave that smashed the last two rows of puppets in front of him.

Then, before the crushed puppets could return to their original form, Rocky was able to get out of the

array and reach the entrance to the fourth floor.

However, strangely enough, when Rocky was about to release his spiritual power and open the

entrance, a surging force rushed out from the door and shoved him a few steps back.
