Chapter 418: Evil Spirit Puppet, Who is the Controlling Hand?
The stone door was closed tightly, and there were three chains on it.
Ye Bai looked at the chain with a thoughtful expression, then raised his leg and stomped on it hard.
The stone gate shattered with a loud noise, and dust and debris flew everywhere.
Ye Bai and the fat man walked into the door and saw a dark and narrow space.
The space was empty except for a table and chairs.
Next to the table and chairs stands a huge stone platform.
On the stone platform, there was a sword blank as black as ink. It was completely black and exuded a strong evil aura.
Although this sword blank is only the size of a palm, it is carved with all kinds of hideous and terrifying patterns.
"Huh?" Ye Bai exclaimed in surprise.
"What's wrong, Mr. Ye?" the fat man asked in confusion.
"The aura of this sword is a bit strange." Ye Bai stared at the sword embryo and said after a moment of silence: "Also, it is awakening."
His tone was calm and indifferent, but there was a sharp and cold light flashing in his eyes.
The fat man couldn't help but take a few steps back. He felt hairy all over, as if this sword embryo had some kind of demonic nature that scared him.
"Mr. Ye, are you sure?" The fat man couldn't help swallowing and said in a trembling voice.
"Sure." Ye Bai nodded, then stepped towards the sword embryo.
He came to the stone platform and stopped.
At this moment, the black sword embryo on the stone platform vibrated violently and made a buzzing sound.
A strong wave surged and headed straight for Ye Bai.
Ye Bai remained calm, stretched out two index fingers, pressed on the black sword embryo, and pressed hard.
"Clang!"
A crisp crashing sound was heard.
"Huh?" Ye Bai looked at his palm in surprise. He didn't expect that the sword blank was so heavy.
Both of his fingers were faintly oozing blood.
The material of this sword blank is very strange, it is even tougher than steel.
"Mr. Ye, what should we do with this thing? Should we take it away?" the fat man asked cautiously.
Ye Bai looked at the sword embryo, then turned to look at the sarcophagus. After hesitating for a moment, he said to the fat man, "Put the coffin away."
"The coffin is also being put away?" The fat man's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "This is a national treasure!"
Ye Bai laughed and scolded, "I said put it away, so put it away!"
The fat man wanted to cry. He was an antique dealer and had saved money for decades to buy this tomb, but now he had to give it to someone else.
He felt very painful, but he was not stupid. He knew that Ye Bai was definitely not an ordinary person, so he did not dare to go against his will.
At that moment, the fat man closed the lid of the sarcophagus, then held the sarcophagus and prepared to leave the tomb.
At this moment, Ye Bai suddenly grabbed the fat man's arm.
He turned his head and saw a huge puppet about five or six meters tall appear in front of them.
The puppet had no expression on its face and was motionless, like a living dead.
However, when it approached Ye Bai and the others, Ye Bai keenly sensed the dangerous aura emanating from him.
"Mr. Ye, what does it want to do?" the fat man asked in a low voice.
Ye Bai frowned slightly, staring at the puppet warily, and said, "It seems to be attacking us, avoid it."
Upon hearing this, the fat man ran away.
However, just after he ran a few steps, the puppet suddenly grew several times in size, like a hill spanning across.
Accompanied by a huge muffled sound, the entire tomb shook continuously.
The puppet landed in front of Ye Bai, blocking their way. It raised its fist and punched Ye Bai.
Ye Bai reacted extremely quickly, teleporting to avoid the puppet's attack.
He raised his hand and grabbed the puppet's shoulder, squeezed it hard, and with a snap, the puppet was crushed by his bare hands.
However, the remains of the puppet quickly gathered together after the explosion, and finally formed a new puppet.
It still had no expression on its face, staring at Ye Bai with cold eyes.
"This..." The fat man's face was full of horror, and he looked at the doll in fear.
Ye Bai looked calm and uttered a few words slowly.
"It really is an evil spirit, and an evil spirit at that!"
"Evil spirit? Evil spirit?" The fat man felt his scalp tingling and his body trembling when he heard the name.
He knew how terrifying this evil spirit was.
"Mr. Ye, what exactly is it?" the fat man asked, swallowing his saliva.
Ye Bai stared at the puppet coldly without saying anything more.
The fat man didn't dare to ask any more questions.
At this time, the puppet charged again.
This time, Ye Bai did not avoid, but chose to take the initiative to attack.
He stretched out his arms, and his hands turned into claws, grabbing the puppet.
The puppet nimbly dodged to the side and avoided Ye Bai's attack.
Ye Bai did not pursue, but stopped attacking.
Because he found that the strength of this evil spirit puppet had not increased much, and was even much weaker than before.
Ye Bai raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and gently waved his right hand. Countless golden symbols shot out from between his nails, covering the entire body of the evil spirit puppet.
In an instant, the puppet's movements stiffened and its body became sluggish.
It planted its feet on the ground, motionless, as if petrified.
"Hehe, done!" The fat man breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this scene and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He was about to remind Ye Bai, but when he saw the playful look on Ye Bai's face, he was suddenly speechless.
Ye Bai looked at the evil spirit puppet and his smile grew even brighter. He walked over and grabbed the puppet.
"Mr. Ye, what are you doing..." The fat man was a little confused.
Ye Bai did not answer the fat man. After grabbing the puppet, he exerted force suddenly.

The puppet broke in response.
Ye Bai then threw the doll on the ground, looked at its bones, sighed, and said to himself: "I finally understand the secret of this sword."
"Mr. Ye, what are you talking about to yourself?" The fat man came over curiously and asked.
Ye Bai pointed at the sarcophagus and said, "This sarcophagus is actually a cover."
"What, a cover?" The fat man looked confused, as if he didn't understand what Ye Bai was saying at all.
"Look, there is no corpse in the sarcophagus, but a piece of stone." Ye Bai said, squatting down and picking up the stone.
The fat man looked carefully and found that there was indeed a stone lying inside, just as Ye Bai said.
"No wonder there's a puppet here." Ye Bai seemed to understand: "So this thing can control the puppet's behavior."
After saying this, Ye Bai looked towards the direction of the sarcophagus.
"The things here should not be simple." Ye Bai narrowed his eyes and muttered.
"Mr. Ye, this thing is too dangerous. Let's retreat quickly." The fat man said worriedly.
Ye Bai patted the fat man's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, the things here can't hurt me."
"Mr. Ye, this is not a joke. Your realm is obviously sealed. You can't beat him at all." The fat man advised anxiously.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Ye Bai gestured to the fat man to rest assured.
Seeing Ye Bai's firm attitude, the fat man didn't dare to continue talking nonsense. He retreated obediently behind Ye Bai, looking like a loyal dog.
Ye Bai took a deep breath, looked at the sarcophagus and said, "I want to see what you are."
