"Ninth-level puppet?" Yinyuelian stood up, holding a feather fan and said with a surprised smile, "Junior brother, are you sure?"

"I have never fought before, so I dare not say anything." Ji Ning said.

"Junior brother, you are just being humble. Come on, hurry up and let me see you." Yinyue immediately led Ji Ning down the Immortal Palace and came to the open space.

…

Many disciples from the Fangcun Mountain lineage gathered outside the clearing. Even Xiaoqing and Uncle Bai arrived because Ji Ning had sent a message to them mentally before, telling them that he wanted to challenge the ninth-level puppet. Xiaoqing and Uncle Bai both came from

I stopped temporarily during practice and came to watch the battle.

"Master Ji Ning is going to challenge the eighth-level puppet again? He has defeated the eighth-level puppet nine times before, right?"

"Maybe challenge the ninth-level puppet!"

"How can a ninth-level puppet be so easy to challenge?"

"We have so many disciples, and some monsters have been here for tens of thousands of years, but they haven't been able to defeat the ninth-level puppet."

The disciples discussed quietly.

Some disciples even asked Xiaoqing and Uncle Bai: "Kong Green Snake, Bai Shuize, which level of puppet does Master Ji Ning want to challenge?"

"Sister Xiaoqing, don't tell them, just tell me something."

After all, after these thirty years, Xiaoqing and Bai Shuize have become very familiar with these disciples.

Bai Shuize smiled.

Xiao Qing raised her head and said, "You'll know just by looking at it."

In the distance, Ji Ning and Yinyue were talking. They had high status, and most disciples from the Fangcun Mountain lineage would not dare to talk to them.

"Wow." Yinyue waved her hand, and a puppet appeared out of thin air.

This puppet is all white jade, with nine rings on its right arm, and its invisible aura is also very strong.

"Ninth level puppet!"

"It's the ninth level!"

"Uncle Ji Ning wants to challenge the ninth-level puppet!"

There was a sudden exclamation and excitement.

The days in Fangcun Mountain are too leisurely. Everyone is devoted to cultivating Taoism, so someone challenging the ninth-level puppet is enough to attract the attention of many disciples. Especially this challenge...it has only been 30 years since he became a disciple of Patriarch Bodhi.

, and it was Ji Ning who was appointed as his direct disciple. This naturally made everyone even more excited.

*******

Within the battleground.

Ji Ning and the ninth-level puppet faced each other from a distance.

"This is your first time to challenge me. The body of a god and demon is only at the level of the perfect soul." The ninth-level puppet's eyes had a faint light and he looked at Ji Ning carefully.

Ji Ning knew, however, that these ninth-level puppets were refined by his master, Patriarch Bodhi, and were comparable to pure Yang magic weapons. They were both spiritual and wise.

A Beiming sword appeared in Ji Ning's left and right hands: "Stop talking nonsense. Use your strongest swordsmanship."

"Humph." The ninth-level puppet smiled coldly, and a wide heavy sword appeared in his hand, "Then I will play with you." As soon as he finished speaking, the ninth-level puppet made the ground shake with one step, and it had already reached Ji Ning.

The speed in front of him was so fast that Ji Ning's eyebrows moved. He only moved his feet slightly, and the two swords in his hands rushed forward at the same time.

Hua Hua Hua~~~

The overwhelming shadow of the waves appeared out of thin air. Ji Ning's swordsmanship was already advanced enough to attract a large amount of blessings from the power of heaven and earth, and only then did these strange phenomena appear.

Waves of phantoms swept up, and Ji Ning's sword light was among them.

Dang! Dang! Dang!

The heavy sword of the ninth-level puppet is extremely fierce and domineering. Every sword strike is hit by huge waves!

Ji Ning's swordsmanship is more resilient and continuous.

The swordsmanship of the ninth-level puppet is even more fierce.

But under Ji Ning's continuous swordsmanship, the ninth-level puppet was unable to withstand it.

"You really have a chance. I can't defeat you unless I show some real skills." A heavy sword also appeared in the other hand of the ninth-level puppet.

Boom~~~Boom~~~~

I saw two heavy swords waving. For a moment, it was like a huge wind wheel, and even a huge whirlpool shadow appeared above the ninth-level puppet! The huge whirlpool shadow obviously represented the extremely powerful heaven and earth.

The sword power of this ninth-level puppet was obviously more fierce and domineering! It also carried a strangulating power! It completely suppressed Ji Ning!

"Sword travels the three realms!" Ji Ning was suppressed, and his swordsmanship suddenly changed.

The Sword Traveling Three Realms that had been modified and perfected in seclusion was immediately put into play. Under the two dazzling sword lights, there were two black swimming dragons. The two black dragons were swimming, entangled with each other, and rushed towards each other.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

The three intersections of sword light.

Suddenly everything came to a standstill.

The ninth-level puppet and Ji Ning passed each other, standing back to back. The ninth-level puppet was motionless, while Ning put away the Beiming Sword in his hand.

There is a hideous wound on the chest of the ninth-level puppet!

In the previous three encounters, it was obvious that Ji Ning's swordsmanship was a little faster. Even though it was just a little bit faster, it had already decided the outcome.

The ninth-level puppet lowered his head and looked at his chest. The wound on his chest disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"You win." The ninth-level puppet turned to look at Ji Ning, "You defeated me in the first fight. You can also enter the ninth floor of the Immortal Palace."

"Yuxin, this is my junior brother, I deserve to win against you." Yinyue walked over.

"Junior brother? The disciple accepted by the ancestor?" The ninth-level puppet looked at Ji Ning in surprise.

"The more disciples who defeat you, the closer you are to freedom. You should be happy. Okay, you should go back to where you went." Yinyue waved her hand and put away the ninth-level puppet.

"Junior brother, congratulations." Yinyue looked at Ji Ning and smiled, "Let's go, let's enter the Immortal Palace."

"Yeah." Ji Ning nodded.

Immediately followed Yinyue into the Immortal Palace.

The disciples of Fangcun Mountain looked at this scene blankly, watching Ji Ning and Yinyue enter the Immortal Palace together.

"Won!"

"I actually won!"

"Master Ji Ning defeated the ninth-level puppet."

"What a domineering swordsmanship, what a terrifying swordsmanship."

"Uncle Master, you are truly a peerless swordsman."

Everyone was amazed.

"It's only been thirty years."

"It has only been thirty years since I became a disciple of my ancestor. Thirty years ago, my ancestor barely defeated the fourth-level puppet. In just thirty years, I have already defeated the ninth-level puppet. I have been climbing the mountain for nearly a million years.

"The six-armed god and demon surrounded by flames faintly spoke in a low voice, shaking his head and sighing. "The understanding of your human race is really ridiculously high."

"I am a human being. I have been going up the mountain for thousands of years and I still haven't defeated the ninth-level puppet."

"Even the immortals may not be able to defeat the ninth-level puppet. After thirty years... no wonder he was accepted as a disciple by the ancestor."

"The ancestor's direct disciple is amazing."

"Sister Xiaoqing, how about asking Master to give me a sermon sometime?"

"Brother Bai, your master's swordsmanship is really good, but I have doubts about my swordsmanship. When will your master give us some advice?"

There were various discussions.

Xiaoqing and Uncle Bai were also very happy.

****

To defeat a ninth-level puppet in thirty years was something that ordinary disciples of the Fangcun Mountain lineage marveled at and found unbelievable. But for a direct disciple like Old Devil Yinyue, it was within expectations.

Ji Ning and Yinyue were walking on the stairs of the Immortal Palace, walking up the wooden steps.

"Junior brother can defeat the ninth-level puppet in thirty years. It's really amazing." Yin Yue smiled, "Now the ordinary disciples below are shocked and excited by it."

"It's okay." Ji Ning didn't feel like there was anything to be proud of.

With the guidance of my master, Patriarch Bodhi, and the guidance of the Shuifu Xingchen Palace, I often sit on the Netherworld Jade Bed in the Shuifu Meditation Room, and meditate in the environment of the Bodhi Meditation Array... Thirty years? My original goal was to achieve this.

Defeated the ninth level puppet within decades.

"I wonder how the other senior brothers and sisters are doing? How long did it take to defeat the ninth-level puppet?" Ji Ning asked curiously.

"Among the many direct disciples of the master, you are considered normal." Senior Brother Yinyue said with a smile, "There are many direct disciples. Those who were very strong when they became disciples are not included. Those who were very weak when they became disciples... Including you, there are ten of them.
