he sensed no flesh and blood within the iron, only cold metallic parts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, this is a Puppet crafted by Master Ghost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can call him Black Iron Man,” Yi Qianxing explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Black Iron Man, Master Ghost?” Lin Xuan was even more curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The owner of this mountain villa is called Master Ghost; he is an Artifact Refining Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He likes to create metal Puppets to assist him and serve as servants.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder there’s no one in the entire villa,” Lin Xuan understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go inform Master Ghost that we have arrived,” Yi Qianxing told the Black Iron Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, the Black Iron Man briskly left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan was quite interested in the Black Iron Men; they had no flesh and blood yet could walk like humans and understand simple commands, which was truly magical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s so magical about that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s just the simplest form of Puppet Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The core technology is still the Engraving Array Formation,” Lord of Wine said disdainfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, a dry-haired old man floated over, ghostlike and without a sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, his whole body was dry and thin, with desiccated skin clinging to his bones, much like a skeleton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, Lin Xuan was courageous and did not cry out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Qianxing, on the other hand, seemed used to it and respectfully said, “Greetings, Elder Ghost.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, Little Yizi, why have you brought such a young kid here?” Master Ghost looked at Lin Xuan, a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Ghost, this Young Hero Lin’s Spirit Beast is extraordinarily fast and might be able to help us,” Yi Qianxing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this the kid you were talking about?” Master Ghost turned to look at Lin Xuan, with eyes gleaming like ghost fire, flickering incessantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Summon your Spirit Beast for me to see,” Master Ghost commanded authoritatively, leaving no room for doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little White is currently in deep slumber; now is not the time,” Lin Xuan shook his head in refusal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder Ghost, Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin’s Spirit Beast might be evolving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps we could wait a bit longer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Qianxing, aware of Master Ghost’s temper, hurried to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, Little Yizi, I’ll take your word for it this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if this kid doesn’t bring out something when the time comes, don’t blame me for wringing his neck!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Ghost snorted coldly and drifted away like a specter once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly; Master Ghost seemed mysterious to others, but to him, there were no secrets at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was because Lord of Wine inside him had already seen through everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s rare to see a Martial Artist who cultivates ghost spirit type Cultivation Techniques,” Lord of Wine said with a hint of surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, if he dares to make a move, directly blast him with Thunder,” Lord of Wine instructed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Hero Lin, would you like to stay here for a few days?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That would be fine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was curious about this place and prepared to explore it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Lin Xuan stayed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three days later, the Snow White Monkey awoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it looked no different from before, Lin Xuan felt that the Snow White Monkey had changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And its speed had increased, so much so that even he could not accurately perceive it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snow White Monkey affectionately rubbed Lin Xuan’s face, then pointed to the ground, looking very excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is there a treasure underground?” Lin Xuan was used to this by now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Snow White Monkey nodded enthusiastically, appearing very anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t worry, you’ll have your chance to perform, Lin Xuan said with a smile and a scolding tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he went to Yi Qianxing and informed him about the Snow White Monkey’s awakening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also agreed to help with the treasure hunting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Qianxing was thrilled and immediately contacted Master Ghost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Master Ghost said to wait a bit, as there was a mysterious important figure arriving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan didn’t mind this; an extra day or two was of no consequence to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, he could use this time to further strengthen his Mental Realm of Wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Lin Xuan stayed in Ghost Manor, the other powers in Black Feather City were all stirred.\u003C\u002Fp>",1289,"2026-06-06T00:46:41.017Z",1,"novelbin.me","ea71d9a1a001e6811a9791561095bc321d66222c887c5e425c1fb5838712735c","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-398","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-396",1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
