Supreme Emperor of Swords Chapter 605 - Sky-Supporting Pillar

Chapter 605 Sky-Supporting Pillar
After several rounds of careful observation, Ding Hao tried to transform the four existences at the Peak of the Martial Emperor Realm.
His thought was the same as before.
After slightly modifying the inscriptions of the Fake God characters that had been used to recognize enemies and friends in the past, he rearranged a new inscription formation of Chinese characters in the inside of their huge bodies. That way, the martial artists could control them to fight with their Divine Senses.
To Ding Hao’s surprise, because of their primary consciousness, the whole transformation process went much smoother than the transformation of the stone puppets at the Martial King Realm.
However, Ding Hao had soon realized that there was another problem he had yet to consider.
It was an extremely fatal problem.
“If Swordsmanship-seeking Sect is forced to use the Giant Rock Puppet at the Peak of the Martial Emperor Realm, it means that its opponent is also at the Martial Emperor Realm. Such an existence is extremely terrifying. You can find the puppet’s weakness with a little observation… As long as you kill the warrior who controls it from the beginning, you can easily defeat it… After all, the warrior controlling it is relatively much weaker.”
This weakness was extremely fatal.
If the problem could not be solved, the Giant Rock Puppet at the Peak of the Martial Emperor Realm would be rendered useless.
Ding Hao shared this knowledge about the weakness with Saber Master and Sword Master.
“This… is indeed a problem.” The two old monsters were stunned. For a while, they couldn’t think of a workaround.
Ding Hao had to pause the modification process and began to think hard about how to solve this.
There was a dead silence on the huge floating mysterious crystal.
The four Giant Rock Puppets stood quietly at the same place. There was a faint red light flashing in their one-eye vision. It seemed that they also felt Ding Hao’s confusion. They lowered their heads and looked at Ding Hao quietly.
“Once the warriors who control them are killed, or their Divine Senses are isolated, they will lose the powers they should have, and they may even kill without telling friend from foe… How can I protect their controller?”
Ding Hao thought about it hard.
The entire space was terribly silent.
Saber Master and Sword Master thought about it and found that there was nothing they could do. They couldn’t fundamentally transform the Fake God’s characters on the Rock Puppets. After all, there were countless Fake God’s characters on the four Rock Puppets. They were the source of their power and could not be changed.
At the moment they would attack anyone, except for the people merging with the divine fire on the altar. If they were taken to the outside world to protect the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, they would first kill all the people of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect before they had time to kill the enemy.
“Forget it. Little Chap Ding, perhaps you should put this idea aside for the time being. One day, when you become strong enough to fully master the true meaning of the Fake God characters and write the Fake God characters like writing Chinese character inscriptions, you can completely change the four giant fighting puppets!” Saber Master suggested.
Ding Hao shook his head.
He looked straight at the four behemoths in front of him. Thousands of thoughts flashed through his mind. He was thinking hard, but at a moment of a flash of inspiration, Ding Hao suddenly realized something. He jumped ten meters high and laughed proudly.
“I’m so stupid, so stupid. It’s such a simple thing. I didn’t expect it. Haha, by the way, I’m going to transform them into puppet mechs. Haha, yes, it’s going to work as a fighter armor for the Martial Arts field. Hahaha…”
This idea made Ding Hao go crazy with excitement.
“A mech? What is a mech?” Sword Master asked in surprise.
“Hahaha, you’ll find out soon enough…” Ding Hao kept it a secret.
He looked carefully at the first Giant Rock Puppet, and finally his gaze fell on its chest. He observed it for a while, and finally seemed to confirm something. He took out the rusted sword, took a deep breath, ran his Qi, and activated the Supreme Power in the rusted sword without hesitation.
A sword was thrust out, and a slight sound rang out.
Ding Hao directly cut a three-meter-long line on the back of the Giant Rock Puppet where there were no Fake God characters.
After the strike was completed, Ding Hao fell back to the original place. Almost all of his strength had been absorbed by the rusted sword with that strike.
The Stone Puppet stood there, and did not resist at all.
Because in its definition, Ding Hao was not an enemy. Even if it was smashed, he wouldn’t be seen as an enemy.
“What… what are you doing?” Saber Master and Sword Master exclaimed at the same time. They didn’t know what Ding Hao was doing. It looked like a foul move to cut a gap in such a perfect Puppet of War.
Ding Hao smiled and did not explain his actions.
He sat cross-legged on the ground and ran the Mind Essential. Every pore on his body was open, madly absorbing the purple and rich Spiritual Qi from the giant mysterious crystal.
In such an environment, his recovery speed was extremely fast.
After 30 minutes, his lost Qi reservoir was finally restored.
Without any hesitation, he once again activated the Supreme Power in the rusted sword. The sword made another stabbing move, cutting a very small gap on the back of the Giant Rock Puppet.
The Rock Puppet had been made with an extremely hard yellow stone in the Fake God City. Its body was extremely hard, so only the rusted sword—which had activated the forbidden power of the Supreme Master—could cut it off. Otherwise, not even a peak Martial Emperor would be able to break such a hard and a little abnormal rock body with the Fake God’s characters.
Ding Hao sat cross-legged on the ground and regained his strength.
Again and again.
When Ding Hao began to wield the fifth sword attack, Saber Master and Sword Master finally understood something.
“You want to dig a stone room in the body of this Giant Rock Puppet?” Saber Master exclaimed, “Do you want to…”
“Haha, I also understand. Little Chap Ding, you want to place the warrior who controls it directly inside the body of the Giant Rock Puppet!” Sword Master also said it with a tone of enlightenment.
Ding Hao laughed.
He had indeed created a small stone room that looked like a control cabin inside the body of the Giant Rock Puppet.
Then he would be able to place all kinds of inscription formations in the stone room.
This way, the controller could directly enter the Giant Rock Puppet’s body and merge the two into one. The Rock Puppet’s solid body could help control all attacks. The controller could also command the Giant Rock Puppet to distinguish between enemies and friends, and make various accurate attacks and safeguarding measures.
Undoubtedly, this inspiration came from the high mechs on Earth from his previous life.
No one in the Land of Infinity had ever proposed putting people directly inside a Puppet of War.
Throughout a history, there had never been a Puppet of War like this.
Generally speaking, warriors paid more attention to cultivation and improvement of their own strength. They regarded their own bodies as the most powerful weapons, while inscriptionists were intoxicated by the complex and profound inscriptions like a sea of smoke. They were eager to obtain powerful energy by changing the environment through inscriptions. All of this happened while excessively complicated mechanical warfare puppets were used as cannon fodder or defense.
Only the deities could create a battle tool that was completely sentient.
Saber Master and Sword Master suddenly felt enlightened.
They saw a new possibility for the development of the Puppet of War.
“Haha, this is a little interesting…” Saber Master and Sword Master both seemed to be thinking about something.
In the long years they had lived in the past, they had seen too much. Because they were knowledgeable, many things little to no challenge for them. They had lost interest in things. However, Ding Hao’s idea had made them feel somewhat interested. If they could create a fighting tool like Ding Hao’s so-called mech, they should be able to create a new cultivation school.
Ding Hao ignored the two old monsters.
He continued to dig into the Giant Rock Puppet’s body.
The constant use of the forbidden power in the rusted sword took him a certain amount of time. Finally, a stone room of about 10 square meters was opened up in the middle of the Stone Puppet’s upper body.
Ding Hao’s evil interest was continuously upgraded and fermented in this process. He set up living accessories similar to stone tables, stone beds, stone chairs, and stone seats in the stone room, as well as a device similar to a control platform. Only then did he carve inscription formations on the stone wall!
“Without the wings of colorful phoenixes flying, there is a spiritual connection in the heart!”
This was the first inscription formation engraved with Chinese characters using his hands.
Through dozens of Chinese-character inscription formation of all sizes, Ding Hao finally completed the link between his Divine Senses and the elementary consciousness of the Giant Rock Puppet. After some simple attempts and cooperation, he was able to proficiently command it to make all kinds of attacks or defensive movements.
Under the guidance of Ding Hao’s Divine Senses, the body, which was like a behemoth, could make many martial arts moves. It was much stronger when compared to its previous ordinary attacks.
Then Ding Hao placed the cut rock back and sealed the access hole for the internal cockpit in its back.
He set up the transmission inscription formation on these rocks, so that they could be transmitted inside and outside. As long as the formation was activated, people could directly enter the internal cockpit from the outside.
This way, the preliminary success had been achieved.
More detailed work would be needed later, but it had to be done slowly. It was impossible for him to do it perfectly the first time.
Ding Hao tried several times in a row; activating the transmission formation, and transmitting himself into the cockpit. Through an exquisite inscription formation, he could observe all movements outside the cockpit. Then, he connected the simple consciousness of the Giant Rock Puppet with his Divine Senses, in order to control the entire combat puppet to carry out all kinds of movements, which was extremely responsive.
“In order to control such a Puppet of War at the Peak of the Martial Emperor Realm, one must have Qi cultivation and Divine Senses at the great grandmaster level as a minimum. There are dozens of people in the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who can do this…” Ding Hao kept experimenting to confirm the fighting capabilities and requirements for manipulation of this changed Stone Puppet. Finally, he had a detailed understanding of its operation.
Coming out of the Giant Rock Puppet, Ding Hao looked at that big guy who was 100 meters tall. A sense of accomplishment arose in his heart.
Anyone who created a combat tool at the Peak of the Martial Emperor Realm would have such a sense of satisfaction.
“Haha, from now on, your name will be Sky-Supporting Pillar!” Ding Hao named the Giant Rock Puppet and exchanged a simple communication with it.
