Division Of The Puppet Clones

And there was nothing wrong with the girl in front of him. Not to mention the fact that he was literally relying on her for his life. Of course the biggest reason is that it isn't an issue for him to raise a little girl in his family.

Not only that but he also has the entire background of the underground traders and it couldn't be simpler to assist Caroline in growing up. Within a day his ancients will arrive and he can return to the Underground traders.

''And… finished!'' Caroline tied up Marcus' wounds with a neat bow keeping it nice and secure. Evidence of many years of practice.

''I will leave by tomorrow, keep this and only crush it when you are in immediate danger.'' Marucs handed Caroline a small wooden doll with a strange aura radiating off of it. Luckily there were no other powerhouses around or they would clearly feel the domineering power of an Ancient.

Caroline was naturally sad to see Marcus go, but she considered it a fleeting moment despite her already forming attachment towards Marcus. But what she didn't know was Marcus really couldn't go far.

Not only was he connected to her, but he controlled the county that she was in. There was definitely something unusual about this girl to be able to attract thunder. But Dante V4 didn't know what that was.

However, as expected, his two ancient puppets quickly came to receive him and took him away. He was returning to the UnderGround Traders but before that he didn't forget to leave an Ancient to watch over and protect Caroline.

He also handed her a small Platinum card, a VIP pass for their UnderGround Traders. Much like a normal commercial business they provided discounts and added security in all of their trading centers.

The card holders range from Bronze, Silver, Gold and finally Platinum. People with the platinum order are qualified to mobilise and entire counties members of the underground traders!

They are also qualified to ask the managing ancient in charge to take action if it is needed. Currently this is the first Platinum handed out by the Underground traders as only Dante V4 has the authority to do so.

Even the gold card holders are only three. And each was handed out to major forces in trade for allowing the UnderGround traders to take root in their counties.

That was of course the Dark Lords journey to the Underground Traders. But while he was dealing with that Dantes other puppets were still travelling to their chosen locations.

Dante V5, the Phoenix Physique, arrived at a large volcano in a distant county. The volcano has nothing special about it, just a bit more beneficial to fire cultivators. But it was exactly what Dante V5 was looking for.

Unlike Dante V4, Dante V5 hadn't been boosted up to the Saint Realm. Since he was created he had only cultivated to the peak of Body Tempering. So he couldn't pick somewhere well pursued otherwise it is likely for him to be disturbed.

Of course with the protection of the two ancient guards there was a very little chance of anything appearing that could threaten him. Soon Dante V5 arrived at the top of the Volcano, and under the protection of two Ancients aura he easily entered the very heart.

After arriving he carved out a large cave and placed a small futon in the center. Using a small formation to block the cave from the flowing magma outside. He was now fully isolated, even a Saint would struggle to find him within the current spot.

Of course an Antique could easily do so, however that was just for now. As Dante V5 cultivates his strength and anti-reconnaissance would naturally increase. That is one of the benefits of the Phoenix Physique. As a life saving physique they come with a variety of skills to protect them from hunts.

That includes eroding their aura so no one can detect it and even small things like smell and movement will be minimised.

After ensuring that he was safe Dante V5 immediately sat down and started cultivating. As for his two Ancient Puppets they stopped dead still at the entrance to the cave. Without the need for food or drink they could stay in this cave for millions of years.

And that was what Dante intended to let Dante V5 do. Therefore no matter how strong or progressed he is, he will always have a backup puppet in case things go poorly. Of course there are other puppet clones but it is better to have another guarantee.

At the same time Dante V7, the Undead Lord arrived at a large cemetery which holds many thousands of Spirit States and hundreds of Ancients. It was the base of a large battle between forces and has now been classed as a forbidden land.

To even allow the Undead lord to survive there amongst the aftermath, Dante had to separate one of his Saint Puppets to deliver him there. Of course the Saint puppet wouldn't stay sat with him, but would return to Dantes side.

The saint puppet finally delivered Dante V7 to the center of the battlefield. You could see occasional spiritual weapons scattered across the ground and many corpses. However they bypassed all of that and arrived at the falling place of a saint.

Of course the saint's body had been long since retrieved, however the original cave carved out before he died remained there. Dante V7 pushed open large stone gates and entered the mausoleum, the final resting place of a powerful Saint.

With a wave of his hand, a two meter long Dark Jade Coffin appeared in the center. Dante V7 climbed in with the two ancients flanking the coffin either side and took a deep breath feeling the deep undead energy.

His cultivation would definitely increase rapidly while he was here. And so he fell into a deep cultivation.

Out of all the puppets, the SwordMaster had the strangest experience. Dante V6 didn't have the extreme talent that the rest of the puppets have, or the already prepared forces for him to arrive at.

So he set out on an adventure on his own. His pursuit is naturally the sword, so carrying a powerful Saint equivalent sword he set out to a small county on the edge of the continent. The reason why he travelled there was because of a Sword Monument erected by an Antique Swordsman.

It is said that a powerful swordsman grew up to be an Antique, and this small county was his hometown. As soon as he broke through to the Antique realm the first thing he did was return there and left a large monument with his own sword intent on it.

This led to this previously small county becoming a holy place for sword masters all over the continent to rush towards it. Naturally this was the Sword Master's first destination, but it would inevitably take a month or so to reach his destination.
