Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master

Chapter 260: Chapter 244: Turtle is the Biggest Winner_3@@novelbin@@

They came to compete for positions, having a significant advantage.

Many positions, no matter how hard someone like Zhu Xuanji, who practiced other cultivation techniques, tried, were not within their options.

It was simply not possible!

The Golden Cores looked at each other for a moment, then someone nodded, “This is the right thing to do, but if one side secretly enters the Immortal Palace to seize its inheritance while we are fighting against the demon beast tide, what should we do?”

Zhu Xuanji had long anticipated this question and said immediately, “Sign an alliance agreement to restrain us and all the members of the Renovation Team.”

“During the rampage of the demon beast tide, no one is allowed to secretly compete for the three sect inheritances in the Immortal Palace!”

“We desperately need our people to occupy various positions in the Immortal Palace in order to better unleash its power!”

No one objected, and after a brief discussion about the content of the alliance agreement, they all signed it.

Zhu Zhen found Zhu Xuanji.

“Brother, I really came to the right place. Now that the demon beasts are running rampant, I also want to help you,” Zhu Zhen said.

Zhu Xuanji was curious, “Have you completed your investigation on Ning Zhuo?”

Zhu Zhen smiled bitterly, “Brother, how long has it been? I’m not some Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, how much can I accomplish?”

“But…”

He then changed his tone, “This young man is indeed extraordinary.”

“He experienced many hardships early in life, showing great courage and a willingness to fight.”

“He is good at navigating situations but seems different from those who grovel. Although he is only in the Qi Refinement Realm, I have a feeling that he possesses the cultivation level of a Golden Core.”

“Brother, do you have high expectations for him and wish to cultivate him?”

“In fact, he is indeed a good target.”

“The Ning Family came from the North Wind Country and temporarily established a foothold here, having estrangements with other forces.”

“Under such circumstances, the Ning Family is the most suitable local ally for our Zhu Family’s royal clan.”

“Moreover, Ning Zhuo has talent. If he succeeds in cultivation in the future, he will surely have extraordinary means. He has a high chance of achieving Golden Core status…”

After hearing Zhu Zhen’s words, Zhu Xuanji hurriedly waved his hand, “Wait, wait. I asked you to investigate him, not to praise him.”

Zhu Zhen laughed and winked, “Brother, don’t be so serious.”

“When I was investigating him, I found out that at least two other groups were secretly investigating Ning Zhuo.”

“If you really want to recruit him, you must act quickly. If such a good seedling falls into the hands of other forces, it will not be good for our Zhu Family.”

Zhu Xuanji fell silent.

Zhu Zhen brought up his request again, wanting to help by entering the Magma Fairy Palace to fight the beast tide.

Zhu Xuanji hesitated.

Compared to the demon beast tide, the human race was at a clear disadvantage in terms of strength.

Therefore, at this moment, every combat force was crucial.

At the same time, Zhu Xuanji’s mind flashed with Ning Zhuo’s image.

“When the Five Elements Turret fired, Ning Zhuo was entering the Immortal Palace.”

“He couldn’t have controlled the turret.”

“He was never seen entering the Immortal Palace.”

“He is merely at the fourth level of Qi Refinement… his suspicion can be ruled out.”

Thinking of this, Zhu Xuanji nodded to Zhu Zhen, “Alright then.”

“You can go into the Immortal Palace and fight the beast tide.”

“With your expertise in mechanisms, it should be easy for you to meet the standards and enter the Immortal Palace.”

Zhu Zhen was overjoyed, hurriedly cupping his fists, “Thank you, brother!”

Magma Fairy Palace, main hall.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was nervous and restless, pacing back and forth.

“It’s over, I’m finished!” The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was trembling all over in anxiety.

It knew very well that it couldn’t fend off those extremely angry Red Flame Demon Beasts by itself.

However, in the next moment, Meng Kui personally intervened, casting a spell to clear a temporary passage.

The Golden Cores united and came near the Immortal Palace, bathed in the radiant glow, entering the palace together.

Once inside the Immortal Palace, they quickly rushed to the front lines in various directions to participate in the battle and resist the beast tide.

“Phew!”

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit saw this scene and let out a long sigh of relief.

It lay on the throne for a while before it finally recovered.

Its eyes penetrated space, scanning the battle lines, gradually breaking into a wide grin.

“Ning Zhuo! You’re truly remarkable.”

“The situation developed exactly as you predicted!”

“Although the demon beasts were riled up by us, the consequences are all borne by the Golden Cores.”

“This feeling is truly satisfying!”

“But do you know what makes me the happiest?”

“Hahaha, it’s that from now on, you will have no chance of becoming the Palace Master.”

“No matter how cunning you are, you ultimately suffered from a lack of information, allowing me to outsmart you this time. Hehehe!”

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit didn’t tell Ning Zhuo many things.

For example, participating in the palace trials required merits, and merits could be deducted, turning negative.

Although Ning Zhuo held a position, his act of firing the cannon and inciting the beast tide eventually caused damage to the entire Magma Fairy Palace.

When it was all tallied, his merits would be heavily deducted, turning deeply negative!

Ning Zhuo would then have no chance of obtaining the final palace trial slot.

“Therefore, I, the Dragon Turtle, am the ultimate winner!”
