I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

"Tong Er" launched a sneak attack on Han Zhan.

The moment he made his move, Han Zhan realized something was wrong.

Because he saw puppet strings as thin as hair faintly appearing, Tong Er was fake, it was a meticulously planned trap!

"Creation Skill!"

While Han Zhan evaded, he had already prepared a counterattack with his other hand.

The Creation Skill was summoned once more, silver light reactivated on "Tong Er," and it activated the part... the tattered fabric that had just merged with his pants!

The tattered fabric was activated by the Creation Skill, and all the threads exploded like popcorn, then continued to grow and extend.

In the blink of an eye, the "Tong Er" puppet was wrapped in countless threads, turning into an unequivocal dumpling.

Completely immobilized.

At this moment, behind him, an even more unexpected attack was unleashed fiercely!

It was Tong Yi!

Tong Yi was fake too!

This time, Tong Yi was so close to Han Zhan, and it was when he had just finished using the Creation Skill, leaving him defenseless.

The dagger hidden on Tong Yi successfully struck Han Zhan’s body.

However, before he could show any sign of joy.

The dagger that pierced into Han Zhan’s body seemed to have stabbed into air.

The strange feedback made "Tong Yi" furrow his brows with a very human-like expression.

Soon, the "Han Zhan" in front of him shattered like a mirror and then reassembled at a relatively distant spot.

"Tong Yi" realized his sneak attack had failed!

"When did you find out?" "Tong Yi" tightened his grip on the dagger and asked puzzled.

His sneak attack failed; Han Zhan had long replaced himself with the real body using the Circulation Technique, proving the opponent had already anticipated his plan.

Han Zhan looked at the frowning "Tong Yi" and sneered.

"Because your plan was too clumsy."

"Since they could quietly and swiftly abduct Tong Er, why couldn’t they quietly abduct you too?"

"Clearly, they wanted someone to deliver a message to me, because they knew Tong Yi and Tong Er had a good relationship with me."

It was a trap.

From the beginning, Han Zhan realized it.

Tong Yi and Tong Er really had no enemies; what enemies could two eight or nine-year-old children have?

The only reason was their relationship with him. The person they were targeting was actually himself.

"Once I realized this, I deliberately played along and followed you to walk outside the granary."

"But don’t you find two things strange?"

"Tong Yi" asked coldly, "Which two things?"

"First, you said Tong Er was abducted, but no one saw him along the way, nor did they see anything unusual. Brother Chang Hao and so many Star Officials hadn’t noticed anything wrong."

"Second, I deliberately chatted with Brother Chang Hao at the door for a while longer, yet you didn’t urge me, as if you weren’t in a hurry at all."

Sometimes, certain details can reveal a lot of information.

From that time, Han Zhan formed a general hypothesis.

Then, with the flexible use of the Creation Skill and Circulation Technique, he dismantled the ambush plot of the "Tong Yi" and "Tong Er" puppets.

"If I’m not mistaken, the real Tong Yi and Tong Er should still be inside the granary."

"Perhaps, they were just knocked out and might be sleeping in their rooms right now."

"After all, the most dangerous place often is the safest place."

As Han Zhan spoke these words, he suddenly moved.

In the Circulation Array covering the entire house under his feet, nine Golden Profound Texts surfaced.

They transformed into nine beams of Light Prison at lightning speed, intertwining to confine the fleeing "Tong Yi" in place.

"You deliberately explained so much to delay time and catch me alive!"

"Tong Yi" stared coldly at Han Zhan, like a snake eyeing its prey.

Han Zhan was indifferent to such a gaze, shrugged, and spread his hands.

"You’re right."

"Rather than thwarting your plot, handing you over to the master might yield more unexpected gains, don’t you think?"

"Once I capture you alive, I can trace that thread, and then..."

Han Zhan hadn’t finished speaking.

A dangerous intuition pierced through him, making his hair stand on end, and he decisively evacuated the house.

Just as he left the house, there was a loud boom.

The "Tong Yi" and "Tong Er" puppets were remotely detonated.

The massive explosion almost leveled the entire house.

Many surrounding buildings were affected too.

Luckily, no one lived here, no innocent casualties.

Han Zhan glanced at the ruins with lingering fear and clicked his tongue.

This really left no flaws, but fortunately, he still had that thread... Wait!

Han Zhan tried to reach into his bosom, but the thread he originally discovered on the collapsed wall had disappeared without a trace!

"This must be the handiwork of the puppet master."

"The puppet master can control puppets, and what they control are the strings within the puppets."

"Once it enters the puppet master’s manipulation range, even broken strings can be reactivated and commandeered. Then, during my fight with the other two puppets, the thread was quietly taken."

The opponent went to great lengths just to destroy potential clues he found at the scene?

Could it be... it’s really him?

With this thought, Han Zhan’s gaze became keen.

At this moment, several figures flew over from afar. It was Chang Hao, who had completed the unblessing task, along with his Star Official Puppet.

"Fifth junior brother, are you okay?"

"I heard there was an explosion here and came over immediately."

"Is this... Fire-Bursting Stone?"

Suddenly, Chang Hao seemed to notice something, bent down to pick up a handful of dirt, and crushed it with his fingers.

"Fire-Bursting Stone? What’s that?"

"A special material, you can think of it as something similar to Starlight Stone, but their material properties are completely different."

Chang Hao began to educate Han Zhan again.

"You probably also know, Xiqi was punished by the Celestial God, reversing day and night, forcing the people of Xiqi to become nocturnal, never seeing sunlight."

"Similarly, Xiqi wasn’t the only place punished by the Celestial God; in this world, the Ancestral Temple isn’t the only place with cultivation heritage."

"You mean the Fire-Bursting Stone comes from another place, a ’specialty’ from there?" Han Zhan raised an eyebrow and asked.

Chang Hao nodded.

"Yes, the Fire-Bursting Stone is a specialty of the Quanrong Kingdom. There, even though day alternates with night normally, they too have their unique divine punishment."

"The effect of the Fire-Bursting Stone can cause massive explosions; if not careful, one could be severely injured."

Quanrong?

Could it be that he misunderstood Fourth Brother? Was this entire series of actions actually the work of Quanrong?

Things were becoming increasingly mysterious.
