Baby with Daoist Monarch System

”Boom!”

Both sides collided once more, the surrounding air cracking with sonic booms, resonating with roars. This time, the momentum was higher than any previous clashes.

However, this time there wasn’t the sensation of the ground sinking.

Xu Ran looked down in wonder, only to find the cracked earth had already fully healed. Even the sunken ground had been raised to its former height.

Seeing this, his gaze sharpened, ”Is this the Wood Attribute’s recovery ability?”

With that, he stared intently at the Wood Attribute Puppet.

”If it can even mend the earth, wouldn’t it be quite easy for the puppet itself to recover from damage?”

Even if it’s difficult for the puppet itself to repair, it couldn’t possibly be harder than mending the earth, which requires immense energy.

This is astronomical.

Moreover, since his battle with the Wood Attribute Puppet began, he had been observing the interaction between the orb’s mouth and the background behind.

What he discovered was that the energy from that background was virtually undiminished.

This suggests that the energy beyond the Dueling Arena is far greater than his own.

No matter how great Xu Ran’s potential and depth, he couldn’t restore the cracked ground to its original state.

This means that relying on consuming the background’s power to pass this trial is no longer feasible.

He pondered for a moment, various details since he entered the trial flashed through his mind.

Since this is a trial, it can’t be unsolvable, or it wouldn’t serve a trial’s purpose.

There must be something he missed. Once found, he can pass the trial.

Though Xu Ran thought this way, the puppet wouldn’t necessarily give him the time.

That same Wood Attribute Puppet, seeing Xu Ran motionless, slammed its wooden legs on the ground. The terrifying power immediately created a crack in the ground, but it quickly healed.

In a blink, it appeared before Xu Ran, raising a brown fist to smash directly toward his face.

Just as it was about to land on his face.

Xu Ran suddenly opened his eyes, his pupils bursting with dazzling golden light. The surrounding air instantly converged, a powerful pressure distorting the space around him, causing the puppet’s punch to veer off course.

”Give you an inch, and you try to take a mile?”

Xu Ran roared in anger, his right hand shooting out like lightning, trying to catch the incoming puppet’s fist.

But this was a puppet in a trial; it wasn’t that easy to catch.

The fist that had deviated from its target began to fall apart at the arm, splitting into several parts, easily dodging Xu Ran’s hand.

Immediately, the shattered arm reassembled, and now its fist was once again aiming at Xu Ran’s face.

Just as the fist was about to hit Xu Ran’s face, his outstretched right hand, flexible and boneless like a snake, wrapped around the puppet’s arm quickly, catching the incoming fist.

”Ha!”

With a loud shout, Xu Ran’s previously flexible arm instantly straightened, unleashing the specific power of Great Success Innate Saint’s Sacred Body from within him.

”Crack!”

The moment Xu Ran’s body burst with immense power, the fist he caught shattered into wooden fragments, scattering in the air.

Seeing this, the puppet didn’t linger but abandoned the entire arm, quickly retreating.

But it wasn’t that simple.

Xu Ran didn’t let it go, seizing the opportunity; he shot toward the Wood Attribute Puppet. In a blink, he was close to it.

The puppet’s stone-like eyes, seeing Xu Ran suddenly in front of it, flickered with green light, trembling as if showing disbelief.

”Boom!”

Before it could react, a huge fist slammed into the puppet’s chest.

”Whoosh—Boom!”

The retreating figure, under Xu Ran’s right fist, sped up, creating a trail hundreds of meters long before stopping.

At the end of that trail, the previously mighty Wood Attribute Puppet, its chest collapsed, the hardwood shattered, now looked like a scrap puppet.

In its hollow chest, a green orb emitted a flash of green light.

Before excitement could come.

”Buzz!”

Outside the Dueling Arena, in the background full of towering trees, shook vigorously, as a green orb attached itself to the puppet.

Instantly, the previously broken puppet began to rapidly repair itself, its hollow chest, fragmented body, and missing arm...

All the parts lost in the battle were restored at this moment.

As the green light faded, the previously damaged Wood Attribute Puppet stood up once more as if it had never been injured!

...

Dueling Arena.

All Soul Bodies, seeing Xu Ran easily defeat the Wood Attribute Puppet, erupted in cheers.

Although the Soul Bodies present excelled in different combat skills and paths.

This kind of hand-to-hand combat stirred their hearts the most, and they haven’t seen such scenes in the Nine-Layered Giant Tower’s trials.

An infant under two easily defeated a powerful puppet.

But before they could cheer for Xu Ran, a flash of green light, and the previously shattered puppet quickly returned to its original state!

Such a reversal left them stunned, speechless at the sight in the mirror!

Since Xu Ran entered the trial, he easily broke through stage after stage, even that strange creature in the valley didn’t last long.

But this trial puppet, being of Wood Attribute, inherently fast with healing ability.

Not only could it quickly repair the earth’s cracks, but it also possessed great power.

Although this power was nothing compared to Xu Ran’s, it was still a Wood Attribute Puppet!

Beside it were four more Attribute Puppets yet to act; how much harder could they be compared to this Wood Attribute Puppet?

It seemed easy for Xu Ran to shatter this Wood Attribute Puppet with little effort, but others could quickly recover!

Besides, it’s not just one recovery; there are five puppets with the same traits.

Xu Ran’s Innate Qi and Immortal Sword Skill were also banned; how could he possibly hold out?

Now.

The Second Senior Brother looked at the Senior Brother, seeing a hint of schadenfreude on his face, and gave a wry smile.

It seemed the Senior Brother also knew the trial’s difficulty!

Likely, he had been worn down during this trial too!

”Ha!” The Junior Sister saw Xu Ran’s predicament, thinking about what’s next, ”This time, he surely cannot successfully pass the trial?!”

As the Junior Sister among the three, all other Soul Bodies’ Senior Sister, how could she not see what others could see?

From the beginning, she did not think highly of Xu Ran, but got proven wrong time and again.

Now, faced with a trial even the Senior Brother couldn’t pass, he’s finally failing!

This feeling was very satisfying to her!

”Humph!” The Junior Sister snorted coldly, ”If even the Senior Brother couldn’t pass the trial, then no one in this world can!”
