The situation turned, and the Soul Transformation Cultivator was at a complete loss at what was happening here. But since all cards were laid out, he had nothing else to lose but go forward with a very dumb plan.
The Soul Transformation Cultivator charged forward, and Y intercepted, blocking a powerful palm strike with the side of one of his Demon Trigger Swords.
The impact force from the blow was strong enough to cause a shockwave to shoot out, but thanks to Y's Shield that instantly appeared behind the puppet, the full brunt of the blast disappeared.
'How did he escape the Mask's rooting spell?' I wondered, then realized that the Soul Transformation Cultivator was actually still back in his place and whatever this thing he used was nothing but a clone made of Qi that he used to try and assassinate me.
"Powerful Puppet! It should serve a better master!" the Soul Transformation cultivator said and then threw several flags from his inventory next to Y.
