The first thing after stepping forward is to step back.
Because Zhang Ze saw Lily manipulating two four-armed Thousand Mechanism Puppets, pinching eight finger techniques, and casting eight Primordial Light Spells around his head.
He thought if Lily accidentally sacrificed herself, her brain would definitely be a valuable legacy.
Valuable in every sense.
Lily didn't have that absurd number of Golden Cores like Zhang Ze, in fact, she didn't even have a Golden Core.
And those Thousand Mechanism Puppets weren't strengthened and adapted by Dan Dan's Celestial Promise Holy Sword.
Lily controlled these things purely by relying on the most basic Object Control Technique, and her understanding of the Thousand Mechanism Rune Array and mechanisms.
She nestled in the Thousand Mechanism Cocoon protected by Maomao, moving her heart at will, controlling the movement, casting, and puppet fingers of those Thousand Mechanism Puppets.
An absurd genius.
