Continuing forward without disturbing them, he arrived at a place where the spiritual pressure intensified. Ming Zhi Tian activated his Immortal Emperor's Eye, barely managing to suppress it.
Indeed, ahead, seven-colored golden light flashed, and piles of mechanical equipment came into view. Ming Zhi Tian was overjoyed; these were all rare mechanical components!
Could it be that a mechanical deity or multiple mechanical deities once resided here?
Ming Zhi Tian created two clones, summoned the ancient remains obtained from the Illusory Heart Lake, and combined them with the rare mechanical components decomposed from the incomplete half-sword. The three immediately accelerated the creation of the ancient puppet body...
The three worked with practiced skill, achieving twice the result with half the effort. Previously, it took half an hour to craft a Divine Might realm mechanical puppet. Now, this ancient mechanical puppet, far surpassing the Divine Emperor realm, took one hour to complete—it was the fastest possible.
With the puppet body successfully crafted, the remaining insufficient parts were reinforced. The final step was to transplant the divine soul from the ancient puppet's mind into the ancient puppet itself.
After a long while...
A powerful spiritual pressure, emanating from an ancient heavenly will, permeated the entire area!
...
Ancient Tower Building—
Nuwa and Chi You's divine eyes blazed, "What exactly happened?"
...
"Rumble...!"
Stone pillars and runes were shattered one after another!!
Ming Zhi Tian exhausted his immortal spiritual power, and his clones dissipated. "Phew!" He hadn't expected that crafting an ancient puppet, even with his divine spirit sea, would consume so much energy!
He had successfully broken through to the thirteenth level of the mechanical path!
The ancient puppet body floated up with the ethereal immortal spiritual power...
"I!"
"Am!"
"The Eternal Emperor!"
His pair of piercing golden divine eyes looked at Ming Zhi Tian, "Did you revive me?"
Ming Zhi Tian was completely controlled by the spiritual pressure, unable to move for a moment. "You..."
He couldn't utter a second word.
Suppressed...
Powerful...
Ming Zhi Tian couldn't breathe...
The Eternal Emperor's spiritual pressure choked Ming Zhi Tian's neck. "Speak! Why did you revive me? What are you trying to do?!"
Ming Zhi Tian struggled to utter a few indistinct words, "You can't... uh... kill me... you will die because of it..."
The Eternal Emperor pondered for a moment and released him. "Who are you?"
Ming Zhi Tian, gaining his breath, rubbed his throat vigorously, shook his dazed divine brain, and his gaze turned sharp. With a slight flick of his finger.
"Kneel!"
"Thump!..."
The Eternal Emperor's disbelieving gaze turned towards him as he knelt on both knees. "You dare?!"
In the past, he had always been led around by the so-called divine energy users, Mo Li Divine Venerable and Ou Huang Sovereign Emperor. Today, he had to stand firm, because he! Was the master!
Ming Zhi Tian stood proudly. "The Eternal Emperor, right? Take away your disrespectful divine eyes! I am your master!"
The Eternal Emperor remained unconvinced, but under the control technique, he was helpless and could only consciously retract his spiritual pressure and divine eyes.
Ming Zhi Tian finally relaxed completely and became even more assertive. "My name is Ming Zhi Tian. From today onwards, I am your master. And you, no matter how powerful or remarkable your past life was, you are mine now. Therefore, Eternal Emperor, put away your thoughts of resistance and cooperate with me."
The Eternal Emperor said, "You mean... you want this Emperor to submit to you?"
Ming Zhi Tian wanted him to compromise with him. "Yes! And no. It depends on your performance."
The Eternal Emperor was enraged. "In my past life, no one dared..."
Ming Zhi Tian directly interrupted him. "But I am an exception. Kneel!"
The Eternal Emperor tried to suppress the powerful energy from within him, but it was overwhelmed. He knelt on one knee. "Urgh..."
