My dreams can simulate the future.

Chapter 104 The Terrifying Puppet

Jiang Chen didn't hide anything and directly took out the token: "I obtained this token in the Flood Dragon Cave."

I thought it wouldn't be of much use, but I didn't expect it to actually allow me to pass through this array barrier.

"Why don't you try using this token?"

"If I can get in, all the better; if not, I'll explore on my own."

He held the token in his right hand and extended it towards Qiao Song outside the barrier, without any hindrance.

Qiao Song took the token, held it in his hand, and reached out towards the array barrier.

However, he was still blocked outside by the array barrier.

At this moment, Jiang Chen suddenly realized: 'It seems that I was able to enter this array barrier not because of the token, but because I cultivated the [Jade Cauldron Pure Yuan Technique] and was recognized by the array as a successor of the Creation Sect.'

Outside the formation, Shen Yi, his face full of disdain, reached out to ask for the token.

"Hey Old Joe, you have to acknowledge someone's abilities, even if they're not. Give me the token, and I'll show you what Master Shen is all about."

Although Qiao Song looked unconvinced, he still handed over the token, gritting his teeth as he said, "If you can't get in, see how I laugh at you!"

Shen Yi's face was full of arrogance. After taking the token, he rammed into the barrier.

Thump~~

With a muffled thud, Shen Yi was thrown more than thirty feet away.

He fell heavily onto the stone steps, then tumbled down them, looking extremely disheveled.

"Hahaha..." Seeing this, Qiao Song couldn't hold back any longer and laughed so hard he was doubled over.

"Mr. Shen, why didn't you break through this barrier?"

Shen Yi, who had rolled to the ground, struggled to get up.

"Everyone makes mistakes, even horses stumble. What's so funny? You didn't get in either, did you?"

After saying that, he looked at Jiang Chen again: "Junior Brother Jiang, neither of us could get in, how did you manage to get in?"

Now that they are in a dream simulation, Jiang Chen is trying his best to find out all the dangers and has no intention of hiding anything.

Jiang Chen pointed to the token and said, "In the Transmission Hall, I learned a secret technique called the Jade Cauldron Pure Yuan Technique."

The pure elemental seed condensed by that secret technique is exactly the same as the round cauldron relief on this token.

"When I passed through this barrier just now, my pure elemental spirit seed trembled violently."

It seems that the secret technique and these ruins are somewhat related.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Song slapped his thigh in anger: "I've seen this secret technique in the Transmission Hall, but since I've already practiced other pure Yuan secret techniques, I didn't take it seriously."

If I had learned this secret technique back then, I could have gone in and explored it too.

Shen Yi said with a disdainful look, "If it's no good, it's no good. Don't make excuses."

"It is quite difficult for us outsiders to enter the Transmission Hall to select a lineage, so not many people will learn this thing."

But those direct disciples enter the Transmission Hall as if it were child's play; perhaps many of them have practiced this secret technique.

At this point, he immediately handed the token to Jiang Chen.

"Junior Brother Jiang, take the token and explore deeper as soon as possible."

We must secure the benefits before those bastards from the inner circle arrive.

Jiang Chen accepted the token, cupped his hands in greeting to the two men, and said, "Don't worry, senior brothers, I will do my best to get the benefits."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the depths of the valley.

The inside of the light curtain was much more orderly than the outside.

The stone path on the ground was extremely smooth and flat, without a single scratch or dust. The grass and trees on both sides of the path were also neatly arranged, with many signs of trimming.

Clearly, someone is still taking care of this place.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen felt very uneasy.

"Could it be that there are still living people in this blessed land? If that's the case, then we're in trouble!"

"This place is rich in spiritual energy, and with the inheritance of the Creation Sect, if one continues to cultivate in this blessed land, one will surely become a powerful figure."

If I just dump it in, wouldn't that be a dead end?

With a mix of trepidation and anticipation, Jiang Chen continued to delve deeper.

A yellow leaf detached from the branch, fluttering in the air before finally landing on the edge of the stone path.

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared out of nowhere.

The man was thin, dressed in a black robe and wearing a black veiled hat, obscuring his face. He was also holding a worn-out broom.

He gently swung the broom, sweeping the yellow leaf into the nearby bushes, his movements extremely stiff.

Then she turned around and faced Jiang Chen, remaining motionless.

At this moment, Jiang Chen felt a chill run down his spine: "This person has no magical power fluctuations whatsoever, but moves extremely fast, and my eyes can no longer see clearly."

Such individuals must be highly skilled and experienced masters with considerable abilities.

He immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, senior."

The figure remained motionless, standing in place as if he hadn't seen him at all.

Jiang Chen wondered to himself, "What's going on? They're completely ignoring me."

He suddenly appeared just now because a leaf had fallen on the stone path.

After sweeping away the leaves, he did nothing more.

Could it be that he's not a living person, but some kind of puppet?

Thinking of this, he immediately released his divine sense to investigate the man in black.

This guy's robes and veil were quite extraordinary; divine sense couldn't penetrate them at all.

Jiang Chen came up with another idea. He casually picked a leaf from the bushes by the roadside and threw it on the stone pavement.

The puppet immediately reacted, its figure flashing as it appeared where the leaves were, sweeping them away from the stone path with a broom.

After that, there was no further news.

Just then, another dark figure suddenly appeared, also dressed in a black robe and wearing a black veil.

The difference is that this second shadowy figure is holding a ruler.

He stood before Jiang Chen and said, word by word, "Unauthorized gathering of herbs and trees is punishable!"

The voice was mechanical and rigid, without the slightest variation in tone, and it was interspersed with the harsh sound of metal rubbing together.

At this moment, Jiang Chen was certain that the man in black robes was a puppet.

They can only act according to certain fixed rules and have no ability to communicate.

The second puppet says I should be punished, but I don't know how.

The second puppet raised its right hand, the ruler in its hand flashing with spiritual light, and then slammed it down heavily.

Jiang Chen tried to dodge, but just as he was about to use his escape technique, he found that he could not move his body.

Clang~~

With a crisp sound, the multi-layered golden armor phantom on his body shattered instantly.

Jiang Chen was shocked: "Nine-layered Golden Armor Talisman, shattered in one blow, even a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator can't do that!"

If he attacks again, how will I survive?

Thinking of this, he immediately activated the Myriad Blades Golden Armor Talisman he carried with him, as well as several protective magic artifacts such as the Golden Gang Pendant.

In the blink of an eye, several defensive barriers enveloped his entire body.

That mechanical, monotonous voice rang out again: "Resist~punishment,~double~punishment."

Clang~~

The ruler fell again, and several barriers, including the Thousand Blades Golden Armor, shattered instantly.

After the Thousand Blades Golden Armor was broken, countless golden sword beams scattered in all directions.

A few sword beams struck the two puppets, producing a metallic clang.

More sword beams struck the surrounding vegetation, and in an instant, countless plants were reduced to withered branches and fallen leaves.

Jiang Chen felt a chill run down his spine: 'It's over. I'm getting beaten up for picking a single leaf. This is a disaster; I'm definitely going to die.'

The puppet holding the ruler spoke again: "Attacked the law enforcement puppet, destroyed a lot of vegetation, deserves to die!"

The ruler slammed down on Jiang Chen's head, and the dream simulation ended instantly.
