Primordial Ancient Serpent-Chapter 458: Book of Puppets, Endless Puppets
Chapter 458 - 458: Book of Puppets, Endless Puppets
"Chaos Sealing Technique"
In an instant, Gu Chuan made his move. A supernatural power surged forth, blanketing time and space in every direction.
This supernatural power was unimaginably powerful. Under his control, it could freeze karma, time, space, Samsara, life, and death. Nothing could move under the pressure of his single finger.
"What?!"
The expressions of Xue Shisan and the others changed drastically. They immediately sensed an overwhelming force restraining them, as if a mysterious magical power had sealed their entire strength.
It felt as though their bodies were wrapped in layer upon layer of sealing techniques. They couldn't move a muscle.
What terrified them even more was that it wasn't just their bodies that were frozen—but time and space itself around them had been completely stilled. Even time had halted.
It was as if the world had stopped in that very instant.
"Crap! We've hit an iron wall—he's a Lord of the Universe!"
Panic flashed across the faces of Xue Shisan and the others. Now they finally understood the terrifying truth—the man standing before them was no ordinary being. He was a true Lord of the Universe.
Only someone of that caliber could effortlessly suppress all of them, leaving them utterly powerless.
Now, they were filled with regret. If they had known how terrifying this man was, they would never have provoked him. But it was far too late for that now.
"I've been searching for the location of the Blood God Kingdom, and you fools delivered yourselves to me. Perfect. You'll become my puppets."
Gu Chuan spoke indifferently as he took out the Book of Puppets and gently opened it.
Clatter~~
A swarm of white, ethereal puppet masks flew out from the pages of the book. They radiated an eerie and terrifying aura that sent chills down the spine.
In a flash, the masks affixed themselves to the faces of Xue Shisan and the others, clinging to them like curses.
"No! No!! NO!!!"
Xue Shisan and the others were driven to sheer panic. They sensed an impending death they could not escape. Once the masks invaded them, they knew they would be utterly erased.
But they couldn't move. Resistance was impossible.
Before the eyes of Baili Ying and the rest, Xue Shisan and his men let out bone-chilling screams.
The puppet masks acted like devils, devouring their souls, assimilating their flesh and energy, slowly replacing their very beings.
In mere moments, the masks had fully penetrated their bodies, consuming their memories and souls and taking complete control of the elite warriors of the Blood God Kingdom.
"Master."
The power of the Great Immobilization Technique dissipated.
However, the newly created puppets—formerly Xue Shisan and his men—knelt before Gu Chuan, declaring their loyalty. They were no longer who they had once been. They were now puppets of the Book of Puppets.
This was the horrifying power of the Book of Puppets—once it devoured an enemy, it could instantly seize their soul, memories, and body, completely assimilating their power. The result was almost indistinguishable from the original body.
"Excellent. Now, take me to the Blood God Kingdom."
With a single wave of his hand, Gu Chuan returned the 100,000 puppets from the Blood God Kingdom into the Book of Puppets. The aura emanating from the book grew even more bizarre and overwhelming.
This was how the Book of Puppets evolved—the more lives it devoured, the stronger it became.
"Gu Chuan, what are we going to do in the Blood God Kingdom?"
The World Tree Girl and Star Tree Girl asked curiously.
"Destroy them, of course. I'll kill the Lord of the Blood God Kingdom and take their territory."
Gu Chuan spoke matter-of-factly.
The Lord of the Blood God Kingdom is a Universe Lord. Once he finds out that his generals have been killed, he will definitely seek revenge
In that case, Gu Chuan chose to strike first.
Furthermore, his true purpose in coming to the Origin Continent was to build his own empire—to gather imperial-level resources and materials. Starting from scratch would take far too long. Instead, seizing the country of a fallen Universe Lord would save time and effort.
Most importantly, the Blood God Kingdom was evil, ruthless, and had made countless enemies. Destroying them wouldn't draw hatred from other Universe Lords. In fact, it might even earn their favor.
So, the moment he learned of the Blood God Kingdom's existence, he decided to erase them. It was a convenient and logical choice.
"W-What?!"
The World Tree Girl and Star Tree Girl stared wide-eyed.
Gu Chuan was too decisive. Even a Lord of the Universe could be killed if he was a threat?
At this time, in the Blood God Kingdom, more than a dozen generals had returned with captives captured from various locations. These captives were thrown into the dungeon, awaiting the day of sacrifice...
"What's going on? Where are Xue Shisan (Blood Thirteen) and Xue Shiqi (Blood Seventeen)?"
The leader, Xue Yi (Blood One), narrowed his eyes as he scanned his dozen brothers, noticing the two missing.

"Boss, Xue Shisan and Xue Shiqi went out to hunt the remnants of the Baili race. But until now, they haven't returned, nor have they sent any message."
Xue Shiba (Blood Eighteen) reported in a serious tone.
"What do you mean? It was just a dozen weak remnants from the Baili race. Why would it take both Xue Shisan and Xue Shiqi to deal with them—and they still haven't returned? Could something have happened?"
Xue Qi (Blood Seven) asked, a frown appearing on his face.
"Impossible. The Baili remnants are weak and helpless like stray dogs. There's no way anything could have gone wrong."
Xue Shiba said confidently.
"If that's the case, then why haven't Xue Shisan and Xue Shiqi come back? Could they be lost?"
Xue Qi persisted.
"No... Not lost. They're dead."
At that moment, Xue Er (Blood Two) spoke in a deep voice, his eyes flashing with a terrifying glint.
"What do you mean?! Xue Shisan and Xue Shiqi are dead? That's impossible!"
Everyone turned to Xue Er, shocked by his words.
"My perception doesn't lie. I can no longer sense the life connection between us. The bond was severed suddenly. That only means one thing—their lives have been extinguished."
Xue Er said with certainty.
"Are you joking? Who would dare kill Xue Shisan and Xue Shiqi? Don't they know they'll face the wrath of the Blood God Kingdom?"
Xue Yi shouted, his face twisted with rage.
"Find the ones who killed them! Tear them to pieces! Annihilate their nine clans!"
"Exactly! Track them down and wipe them all out!"
"To dare attack generals of the Blood God Kingdom—they must be tired of living!"
The generals of the Blood God Kingdom were furious, erupting with killing intent.
