C152 The Scepter of the Elf King(part Ii)

The final three palace guards had clearly more puppets than the previous ones. The second time, they met a puppet that had joined hands. This time around, Zi Ling was much more cautious and did not finish off the two puppets after suffering a great loss.

As he charged towards the last palace, he didn't have many golems joining forces. Presumably, the formation which the two golems were using to attack together wasn't easy to set up either.

"We're here!" Ace saw a huge gold coffin lined up in the last palace.

Zi Ling scanned her surroundings and frowned slightly. Suddenly, she reached out her hand to pull Ace back, then spun him around and swung her palm forward.

One of the puppets received her palm strike head on, and both the purple silk and the puppet retreated a few steps back before stabilizing.

Zi Ling steadied her body and raised her head to look at the puppet. When this puppet was alive, it was probably at the middle to lower rank of the Mysterious General. It was much stronger than any of the previous puppets or even two puppets joining forces.

"Move back a bit," said Violet, her face very serious. She didn't even turn her head back as she spoke to Ace.

After hearing this, Ace immediately hid outside the gate of the Second Palace Hall and only peeked his head in occasionally.

In this battle, the Purple Ribbon did not hold back in the slightest. It used all of its methods, but it was still completely suppressed by the opponent.

With a "pa" sound, Zi Ling received a solid slap. She felt as if her arm was breaking inch by inch. Although she did not undergo a special tempering of her body, her body was constantly strengthening. Even an early Profound General Stage Black Tortoise might not be able to break her arm in one blow. However, this puppet was able to do it.

Zi Ling wordlessly threw a snow core into her mouth. Then, she dashed to the door, picked up Ace's collar and quickly flew out of the main hall.

Zi Ling didn't stop until she realized that the puppet wasn't chasing her. She dropped Ace and fell to the ground, one hand hanging limply at her side.

Arce saw the situation and immediately asked, "What happened to your hand?"

"It was interrupted by that puppet." At the same time, she channeled her spiritual energy and stimulated the medicinal pills to heal her wounds.

After following Zi Ling for a long time, this is the first time Asi saw her suffer. He turned his head towards the inner hall and asked, "Is that puppet that powerful? Even you can't do anything to him. "

"Who said I can't do anything to him?" Zi Ling lifted her head, not revealing a dejected state at all.

"What can you do?"

"That will depend on whether you can obtain the Elf King's Scepter in a short period of time." As Zi Ling spoke, she paused for a moment before continuing, "I just checked the tomb. Besides this puppet, there are no other dangers inside. The only trouble is, can you break through that barrier."

That barrier was neither a formation nor a spirit barrier. Zi Ling really did not know what it was. Perhaps it was a secret technique of the elven race, or perhaps she could not kill this puppet in a short period of time.

Ace's face turned serious, then he nodded. "I'll try."

"Alright, let's do it." As she spoke, Zi Ling stood up from the ground.

"You … Your hand? " Accius pointed at Violet's hand. Consciousness is your hand, isn't it obvious that you're going to end up like that?

Ace, who was still in shock, lifted his hand and with a light shake, his figure flew far away.

Athy was still in a daze. It was only when the purple silk attracted the puppet and pulled it out that he reacted. He immediately dodged the fighting man and the puppet, and rushed towards the main hall.

After exchanging a few more rounds with him, the Purple Ribbon did not continue to fight. It directly threw the great sword from Chen Yan's place into the air, and with a flash, its body appeared on top of the sword. Its flying speed on the sword was several times faster than on the ground, and for a time, the puppet was pulled by Zi Ling to circle the nearby hall.

Accius rushed into the hall in one breath and saw a transparent barrier over the golden coffin. His eyes flashed and he knelt down in front of the coffin. His lips moved but no one knew what he said.

Finally, he kowtowed towards the golden coffin.

At this moment, a groove appeared in front of the coffin, and a lotus shaped utensil slowly appeared in the groove. Athy saw this and unhesitatingly put his finger into his mouth to bite down. Droplets of blood dripped down his finger and he immediately reached out and dripped them into the lotus flower shaped container.

After collecting Ace's blood, the lotus flower shaped utensil unexpectedly converged its petals like a flower bud and then disappeared back into the groove.

After finishing everything, Ace stared at the golden coffin and knelt still.

As time passed, he thought about how the purple silk was still dealing with puppets that were even more powerful than her, and beads of sweat unconsciously appeared on his forehead. He bit his lips, hoping for a miracle to happen.

After an unknown period of time, every second in Ace's eyes was exceptionally long. The golden coffin in front of him suddenly creaked, and the shield in front of Ace disappeared.

Ace got up from the ground in delight and stumbled toward the golden coffin.

At this moment, a staff floated out from the golden coffin. The rod was surrounded by vines carved in gold, and there was a seven-colored gem inlaid on top of the pillar.

The moment Ace saw the staff, he almost cried tears of joy. "The Scepter of the Elf King!"

He quickly reached out to grab it and carefully held it in his hand. After kowtowing to the golden coffin several more times, he rushed out of the hall at the fastest speed possible.

"I did it, I did it!" Ace shouted in the direction of the purple silk.

Zi Ling didn't expect it to be so quick. She nodded and said, "Leave from that direction. I'll follow them immediately."

This puppet would not be too far away from the main hall. Once the distance was exceeded, he would automatically return to the vicinity of the golden coffin.

Ace tightly held onto the King Elven Scepter and ran far away in one breath.

The Puppet chased Zi Ling through a few halls before finally returning to the Fairy King's mausoleum.

"The thing in your hand is the Elf King's Scepter?" Zi Ling's voice came from behind Arth, startling Arth, who was stroking the scepter.

He hurriedly turned around and said to Zi Ling, "Right, the Elf King's Scepter has been sealed by Wu Chen for a hundred years. It's time for it to appear in front of everyone." At this moment, a sense of sharpness suddenly appeared on Ace's body. In the past, he had always been restraining his own presence, but now, just by standing there, he gave off an aura that no one could ignore.

Zi Ling nodded, "It seems that you should also leave."

Ayssa was surprised. "How did you know I was leaving?"

Zi Ling gently curled the corner of her mouth, "The reason why you have come here is because of this. Since you have already reached it, you should naturally seize the time to do what you need to do."

"Won't you leave? You have also collected all the rare spiritual herbs. " Ace asked.

Zi Ling shook her head, "This place is pretty good. At least, no one will bother me, so I plan to stay here in seclusion for a long time."

"Mm, the situation outside is indeed not good for you. Although I hope that you can help me, I also hope that you can become stronger as soon as possible."

Zi Ling's eyes swept him with her gaze before walking out, "It seems you have a way to leave by yourself."

Ace followed from behind, "Thank you for helping me open the inner city and get the Elf King's Scepter. Rest assured, I will definitely keep my promise. As long as I succeed, I will definitely help you fight against the Ye Family and Phoenix Mountain. "

Zi Ling smiled slightly and said, "I hope that you will always remember this promise."

The two of them chatted along the way, blending in with some sharp edges as they slowly left the underground palace.

When the two of them appeared outside the stone platform, Chen Yan was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. Dare was also standing beside him as if he had not recovered his memories.

Chen Yan's gaze swept across the Elf King Scepter in Athy's hands, "I didn't expect this thing to be sealed for a hundred years, to actually be in the sun on the same day as me."

"Human, are you leaving?" Chen Yan stared at Zi Ling and softly inquired.

"I won't leave. This place is a good place for cultivation. Before I break through to the Jindan Stage, I won't leave this place."

In the cultivation world, if a person is lucky enough to break through from the great circle of Foundation Establishment to the Aurous Core stage, it would take at most one to two years. "However, your luck is pretty good. It just so happens that I know some pill techniques. When the time comes, I'll give you some pills to help you break through in one fell swoop."

If an ordinary person wanted to break through to the Aurous Core stage from the Foundation Establishment stage, it wouldn't be a natural thing to do, and there was a high chance of failure. However, Zi Ling was different, she had experienced it once before, and with Ye Ling's special body, she had a high chance of breaking through to the Aurous Core stage. However, she naturally would not tell this to the person in front of her.

"Thank you. Aren't you going to leave?" Zi Ling said casually.

"My body is severely injured, and my cultivation base has regressed quite a bit. I need time to recover. At the very least, I won't leave this place until I recover."

"Alright, it seems that we'll be neighbors for a period of time. Hopefully nothing unpleasant will happen." Zi Ling didn't seem to have any schemes in mind, and she also had a smile on her face.

Chen Yan's eyes flashed.

"Then you should slowly recover. We'll leave first." After she finished speaking, she turned around and led Ace away.

When Accius appeared in front of Jewel and the others with the King Elf Scepter in his hand, they were all astonished. The Elf King's Scepter was a symbol of the Elf King a hundred years ago. It represented supreme authority.

"Ace, is this why you're here?" Pearl pointed at the scepter, her almond eyes narrowing as she asked.

Accius smiled at them. During this time, they had gotten along quite well, and he did treat them as his companions.

However, the Shadow Devil moved closer to him. "You are just a runaway elf, it took you so much effort to get the Elf King's staff. Don't tell me you want to usurp this position, right?"

Ace just smiled and did not answer the Shadow Devil.

"Am I right?" Shadowfiend stared at Arth's face, guessing his identity. Could he be the son of an official who was wronged to death by the Elven King?

"Brother Ace, are you really going?"

Ace nodded and smiled. "We'll meet again in the future."

"Then, when you go back, tell Nina and Grandpa Paparic that Uncle Dare is here as well. He's fine, he's with us."
