This sudden turn of events happened too quickly and disappeared too quickly, causing the three of them to want to curse out loud in unison.

Ling Yun instantly understood the reason. As a powerful Spirit Tattoo Master in his previous life, it was impossible that he had not refined a Soul Puppet before. In terms of understanding the Soul Puppet, there were at most twenty people who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

These Soul Puppets did not have intelligence, so they would act according to their master's orders. Even if their master had fallen, they would do the same. They could be said to be the most loyal guards.

The reason why the elder had left them by his side was naturally to protect him so that he wouldn't be disturbed when he went into closed door cultivation.

Originally, the moment Ling Yun and Ling Er stepped onto the white jade stone platform, and even the moment they stepped into the stone door, they would trigger the Soul Puppet and have it attack.

Unfortunately, their master had fallen for tens of thousands of years and had not rejoined the materials to refine them. They were not Martial Saints and did not have a condensed sacred body, so it was impossible for them to live through tens of thousands of years without withering away.

During the unforeseen event, Ling Yun had made two guesses:

The first was that although those Soul Puppets had already withered, they instinctively followed the orders of their previous masters and wanted to attack. However, they had already withered away, and with this action, they completely turned into the dust of history.

Only two of them had strong cultivation bases or strong physical bodies when they were alive and did not break.

The second method was the vibration of his and Ling Er's footsteps, shattering the Soul Puppet. After all, tens of thousands of years had passed, and even if this place was sealed, it was already rotten to the bones. Any slight vibration could cause it to weathering.

Lingyun's eyes flickered, he did not know which one was more likely, or maybe both.

However, he didn't care about any of this, as it had nothing to do with him.

"Dammit, I scared the hell out of you!" Ling'er cursed in a low voice with a face full of anger. She was actually frightened to such an extent.

However, even though she thought that, her delicate body couldn't help but approach Ling Yun, searching for a sense of security.

No matter how bold and powerful a woman was, she would become weak when faced with these strange matters.

"It's fine, they're not dangerous!" Feeling the warmth from her soft body, a smile appeared in Ling Yun's eyes as he said softly.

"When they were alive, these two Soul Puppets were very powerful. They were at least at the peak Martial Saint level or Rank five physical body." Only then did Ling Yun look at the two Soul Puppets that did not collapse, his eyes slightly flickering.

It was likely because the Soul Puppet was refined from a martial artist's body after the fall, in order to not let his good friend or descendant find it, and to not risk everything to take revenge, these two lines of the Soul Puppet's face were blurred, and there were no signs of life.

However, from one of the exposed bronze colored skin, Ling Yun deduced that this person must have been a Body Cultivator when he was alive.

As for the other person, although he did not collapse, his exposed skin was already deathly pale and had a little metallic luster. He was a practitioner of spirit energy.

Ling Yun suddenly stretched out his hand and a hazy purple light appeared on his finger. It turned into a ray of light that enveloped the two Soul Puppets and stored them in the Violet Net Ring.

"What are you doing?" Ling'er was stunned for a moment as a trace of astonishment flashed through her beautiful eyes.

"This Soul Puppet is from ten thousand years ago. It is different from the refining methods today. I will take it back and study it." Ling Yun smiled lightly, and revealed his purpose.

Although the Soul Puppet was already decayed and could not be used for herself, it was a great pity. However, Ling Yun still valued the techniques to refine them, as well as the spirit engravings on the green and grey armor.

As long as he could control it, he wouldn't have to worry about being ordered around by a Soul Puppet in the future.
