Ancient Tears BloodLine

Puppet Hall

One hour later,

It was time for the 7th Red Mark Puppet. I circulated the bloodline power of the variant water element in my body.

As the bloodline power flowed through my body, I couldn’t help but recall the words of Faction Leader Francesca.

My bloodline power was purer than hers. I didn’t know whether she was joking or not.

Then I pushed away the thoughts and looked toward the platform.

At the same time, the ancient spirit was watching everything in silence. It didn’t expect the young man to use the puppet hall to adapt to his new strength.

It could tell that each attack was not a mix of inheritance power, but carried the power of a special energy.

It was also one of the reasons why the attacks were so powerful.

Creak!

The platform door opened. The 7th Red Mark Puppet rose above the platform. It exploded forward with terrific speed to attack.

My perception was always on the puppet. I immediately figured out that it had extreme speed. I calculated accordingly before raising my hand.

I pointed my index finger toward the leg joints of the puppet. I circulated the bloodline power. The variant bright blue water force reached my index finger.

In the blink of an eye, it formed a dense water ball.

Boom!

Just before the Red Mark Puppet could reach me, I released the attack.

The attack surged forward. In the blink of an eye, it came into contact with the right leg joint of the puppet.

Right then, the scorching sound of intense heat rose. The variant water was not an ordinary water element, but boiling water.

Boom!

The bloodline power created a dent along with the impact force. At the last second, the Red Mark Puppet fumbled and fell to the ground.

The heavy landing caused a shock force to spread across the room.

Seeing that, I guided the bloodline power to form another dense water energy attack.

Boom!

I shot at the Red Mark Puppet repeatedly. The water energy attacks, with their powerful boiling heat, left behind several holes in the puppet’s body.

It didn’t take long for the Red Mark Puppet to collapse to the ground. I didn’t even have to move from my spot.

A hint of satisfaction appeared in my eyes. The power of the bloodline was strong. If I had used the shock force power along with it, the damage would have been even greater.

Creak!

Next, the 8th Red Mark Puppet appeared. I had used everything except the sealing force and the healing force.

I circulated the sealing force this time. As the sealing force coursed through my body, I used my perception to observe the Red Mark Puppet.

In order to use the sealing force, I had to get closer to the Red Mark Puppet.

Boom!

As expected, I didn’t have to move an inch; the puppet charged at me right away. But this time, both of my hands were covered in a dull golden force.

It was the first time I had used it against a Red Mark Puppet. In a flash, the puppet closed the distance. It was faster than the previous Red Mark Puppets.

Yet, I was able to predict its trajectory. The Red Mark Puppet threw a punch at me.

Boom!

My eyes followed the punch’s direction. When it was a few inches away from my body, I met the punch with my own.

When my right hand, covered in dull golden energy, came into contact with the punch, the sealing force immediately took effect.

The sealing force sealed the Red Mark Puppet completely.

"You have finally used this power. Wait and see the effect," the ancient spirit’s voice sounded.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

The ancient spirit did not reply. I stood cross-armed and continued to look at the Red Mark Puppet.

I had thought the power of sealing would simply freeze everything, but it appeared there was more to it. It was the first time I was using the sealing power after its fusion with the special energy here.

As time passed, I noticed something happening to the Red Puppet. The bright red lights in its eye sockets were dimming.

"The puppet is losing its energy," I said to the ancient spirit.

"That’s right. Nothing survives inside the seal. It degrades fast," the ancient spirit said.

"Why didn’t I know this before?" I asked in return.

"Like every inheritance power, the sealing force got stronger as well. Once you break through to Red Mark Warrior, you will understand more," the ancient spirit’s voice said.

Hearing that, my eyes flashed with understanding.

Then I watched the deactivated puppet shut down completely within five minutes. The sealing force then disappeared.

There were 2 Red Mark Puppets remaining in the end. I could destroy them using the shock force power.

Creak!

When the 9th Red Mark Puppet appeared above the platform, I used both the Purple Lightning Power and the Shock Force Power.

The fusion of the two forces flowed through my body.

Right before the puppet could charge at me, I shouted:

"Lightning Cage!"

A purple lightning bolt with a silver hue shot from my right hand. The power reached the target in a flash.

Boom!

As the Red Mark Puppet turned around, the lightning power struck it.

Boom!

The next second, a powerful detonation occurred. The purple lightning power blasted the Red Mark Puppet away.

Together with the Purple Lightning, the shock force power further tore through the Red Mark Puppet’s body.

Boom!

The puppet crashed into the ground, unable to get back up. It lost power quickly because the attack had left behind a massive hole in its chest.

The Red Mark Puppet completely lost the ability to move or attack.

Seeing that the 9th puppet went down so easily, it was time for the 10th and final Red Mark Puppet to appear. I didn’t know what was going on outside.

There were people expecting my arrival. I didn’t know whether the warriors I met earlier were still waiting outside. If they were, it would be fun to see their reactions.

I was sure they wouldn’t expect me to clear the easy mode, but I was going to do it.
