Zhang Lang's soul attempted to take control of his former body, now a Corpse Marionette, to save Ye Haochuan from the Corpse Ghost. While Zhang Lang's soul managed to briefly distract the Corpse Ghost, allowing Ye Haochuan to escape into his Minor World, the attempt severely weakened Zhang Lang. Once inside the Minor World, the Corpse Marionette, still under the Corpse Ghost's control, captured Ye Haochuan.

"Quick, stop him from traversing space!"

Seeing the Corpse Marionette attempting to tear through the minor world’s space, Ye Haochuan shouted anxiously.

The command given to this Corpse Marionette was simple: capture Ye Haochuan alive, so it didn’t cause him significant harm.

However, if it were allowed to traverse back to the Corpse Ghost, Ye Haochuan would still be in danger.

"Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, it won’t be able to tear through!"

Yige’s voice rang out from not far away.

Not only her, but Rui’er, Jiang Shuying, He Wenchang, and others also appeared one after another.

When they saw Ye Haochuan being caught, everyone was shocked.

"Everyone, let’s move together to rescue the Alliance Hierarch!" He Wenchang called out loudly.

"No one move!" Ye Haochuan quickly stopped them.

Given the Corpse Marionette’s intelligence, it would ignore others except Ye Haochuan. But if they attacked, the Corpse Marionette would definitely retaliate.

What a joke, this was a God Lord Realm entity—no mere group, even ten times larger, could rescue Ye Haochuan from its grasp.

The others were not foolish. Hearing Ye Haochuan’s warning, they realized the situation and refrained from attacking.

The Corpse Marionette continued tearing at the space barrier with its hands, but it was futile, looking rather ridiculous.

Sigh~

Ye Haochuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had been so anxious that he forgot Yige’s enhancements to the minor world’s space barrier.

Thus, he was temporarily safe.

But how could he escape the grasp of this Corpse Marionette?

Being pulled like this was not only disruptive but also humiliating!

"Should I give it another try?"

Zhang Lang said timidly.

Just from his voice, it was clear he was reluctant to suffer again. Nonetheless, Ye Haochuan was still pleased by his willingness.

"Forget it, you couldn’t do it in your peak form before; now with your severely damaged soul, it’s even more impossible!"

Ye Haochuan stopped him.

"Blame it on my incompetence..." Zhang Lang looked somewhat dejected.

He had witnessed Ye Haochuan’s actions earlier. If Ye Haochuan had ignored him, he wouldn’t have faced the last danger, nor would this situation have occurred.

Though timid, he was a person with clear distinctions between loyalty and betrayal. Ye Haochuan’s actions had deeply moved him.

"It’s not your fault, I..."

Ye Haochuan was about to offer some comfort, but as he spoke, his expression shifted suddenly, oddly asking, "Are you sure?"

"Huh? Sure of what? Sure I’m useless?" Zhang Lang turned green with embarrassment.

After admitting his mistake, why was his master still questioning him? This was too awkward!

"I wasn’t talking about you..."

Ye Haochuan could only smile wryly as he explained, then asked the purple skeleton head in his soul, "Are you sure I can refine this Corpse Marionette?"

"You can try!"

The purple skeleton head explained, "This type of Corpse Marionette only obeys the Corpse Ghost. No matter how formidable someone is, they cannot refine it. But you are different, as you possess a unique Soul Imprint and the capacity to refine the Corpse Marionette!"

Ye Haochuan suddenly realized something and quickly scoured through the Corpse Ghost Soul he had previously absorbed, indeed finding some useful information.

"The Corpse Marionette’s ability to move is controlled by the Corpse-Controlling Talisman Pattern, linked to the caster’s Corpse Ghost Imprint. Moreover, this special rune can only be broken by another Corpse-Controlling Talisman Pattern.

It means that to refine this Corpse Marionette, I must break the original Corpse-Controlling Talisman Pattern and draw my own."

Ye Haochuan muttered to himself, then sighed bitterly, "Is this even possible? The rune created by a God Lord Realm Corpse Ghost—can I, a Void God Realm cultivator, break it?"

"It depends on how proficient you are with the Formation!"

The purple skeleton head replied, "And now, there’s no other way, unless you wait indefinitely for Shentu Fu to find time and rescue you."

Waiting for who knows how long?

Ye Haochuan was speechless with despair.

In reality, it wouldn’t take long; after a month, Shentu Fu would surely come back for him.

A month is indeed not long for a cultivator.

However, Ye Haochuan refused to wait idly for a month in this state.

Though not dangerous, being ogled like a zoo monkey was unbearable.

"Might as well give it a try; it’s better than doing nothing!"

Ye Haochuan ultimately decided.

The talisman patterns were akin to an aspect of formations, closely tied to their proficiency.

Ye Haochuan’s formation skills hadn’t improved for a long time, merely at peak second-grade.

To contend against a God Lord Realm expert, he needed to reach the fourth-grade level.

Fortunately, the target was merely a talisman, and reaching peak third-grade should suffice.

If others knew Ye Haochuan planned to elevate his formation level by four whole grades within a month, they’d surely think he was mad.

But Ye Haochuan was confident; his learning ability always pushed the bounds of imagination.

"But how should I practice?"

Ye Haochuan suddenly realized the dilemma.

Practicing formations required hands-on creation; now restrained all over, even moving a finger felt strenuous, let alone crafting formation foundations and inscribing runes. How was he supposed to practice formations?

"This, I can help you with!"

The Taichi Pearl, silent until now, suddenly spoke.

The next moment, Ye Haochuan’s soul was drawn into the Taichi Pearl.

Surrounding him was still nothingness.

"This... Are you kidding me? Under these conditions, how am I supposed to practice?" Ye Haochuan was somewhat speechless.

"Just sketch the formation on the ground; I will simulate the corresponding effects based on your formation and even suggest improvements!" the Taichi Pearl said with confidence.

"You know formations?" Ye Haochuan was surprised.

"Not too well, but I can easily manage formations of your caliber!" the Taichi Pearl replied calmly.

Darn, is my level that mediocre?

Ye Haochuan was at a loss.

With some improvement, he’d be a Formation Grandmaster!

In the entire Immortal Realm, how many Formation Grandmasters were there? Yet, to the Taichi Pearl, it was merely "your level"?

Soon, Ye Haochuan realized the Taichi Pearl didn’t deceive him. The formation he initially sketched actually simulated a corresponding effect, and the immersive feeling was no different from being in a real formation.

Darn, simulated training is amazing!

Ye Haochuan was overjoyed to the core.

With this powerful tool, Ye Haochuan felt assured, confident that with his talent, he could easily elevate his formation skills shortly.
