Chapter Ninety-Four: Puppet Demons
Dugu Yan was the last to fall, and she even sacrificed a magic weapon shield to resist the impact of the sound waves. Unfortunately, in less than three breaths, the shield crumbled and shattered.
Immediately afterward, she released another layer of mana shield in front of her, and as long as her true qi was inexhaustible, the shield's defensive effect could be maintained.
Dugu Yan lasted for a long time, and the mana shield finally collapsed and disintegrated, turning into a little light and falling to the ground. In this way, she will have to face the power of this powerful and boundless sound wave by herself.
After half a pillar of incense, Dugu Yan's body collapsed to the ground weakly, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
It was only then that the terrifying sound wave finally dissipated, and the usual tranquility returned to the fog forest.
I don't know how long later, two figures in black robes and hats walked over slowly, and one of them was still carrying Fei Hongming, who had fled before, on his shoulder.
The other hat, who was not carrying anything on his back, climbed all the way with stiff limbs, crossed the pile of blood-winged bat corpses, grabbed Dugu Yan and carried her on his shoulders. Then he kicked Cao Fan's body again, leaned over and grabbed Cao Fan's belt and lifted him up.
The two hatsmen slowly walked back to the place they had come from, and their figures quickly disappeared into the fog.
When Cao Fan woke up, he only felt that his whole head was as uncomfortable as if it was about to explode, and there was no pain in the bones and muscles of his body.
The sound wave was so terrifying that it almost made his body burst. In addition, he felt very cold, as if he was in an ice cellar.
He secretly ran the "Heavenly Fortune Creation Technique", but fortunately, the spiritual power in his body could barely function. The meridians are only damaged, not devastated.
Soon, a wisp of healing energy was transformed by Cao Fan, and he quickly began to nourish his body and repair various damaged tissues.
Unable to open his eyes at all, Cao Fan simply began to try to extend his divine sense according to the "Heavenly Fortune Creation Technique" exercise.
Although he is only a cultivator in the early stage of the third layer of Qi cultivation now, because of his cultivation of the "Heavenly Fortune Creation Technique", the degree of condensation of spiritual power in his body is far greater than that of Qi cultivation cultivators of the same level, and even more condensed and strong than ordinary Qi cultivation Great Perfection cultivators.
Complementing this is that his sea of consciousness has also been unconsciously expanded, and it is no longer difficult for him to condense his divine consciousness and extend it.
At the beginning, Cao Fan could only barely probe his divine sense to a distance of a few centimeters outside his body. But as he continued to try and exercise, he was slowly able to probe his divine sense out of the range of half a meter outside his body.
There is no way to do this kind of thing overnight, Cao Fan can only patiently temper his divine sense little by little, so that it can continue to be expanded.
If Cao Fan could open his eyes, then he would see that he was in a huge palace at this time. He, Dugu Yan and Fei Hongming were each lying on a bed of ice that was constantly escaping a lot of cold air.
The two hatsters who brought them in before were busy preparing something at this time, and there were not only these two hatsters in the main hall, but there were more than a dozen hatsters in the same costume walking around and busy with things.
Cao Fan's divine sense couldn't probe far, but Fei Hongming could probe the surrounding situation of the main hall.
"Puppet demons!" he said in horror.
More than a thousand years ago, Luo Dao Sect, a fourth-level sect in the southern region of the Kunxu Continent, had a disciple named Luo Puppet, who was able to use the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Foundation to kill the opponent of the early stage of Jindan, known as the first day of the Southern Regions. However, it is such a powerful existence, but it never returned in a trial of "Water Mirror Lost Valley", and never came out again.
At first, everyone thought that Luo Puppet had fallen in the "Water Mirror Lost Valley", but after the opening of the secret realm, some disciples actually saw Luo Puppet again in the valley. Not only did he not die, but he also broke through to the realm of the Jindan stage unbelievably.
You must know that the foundation building monk will not be able to break through in the "Water Mirror Lost Valley" at all, and it is absolutely impossible to advance to the Jindan stage. Luo Puppet obviously got some major opportunity, not only did he magically enter the Jindan period, but he could also stay in the valley for a long time.
Almost all the monks who saw Luo Puppet were killed by him, and only a junior brother surnamed Ge, who was in the same family as him and had a good friendship, saved his life. After this junior brother surnamed Ge came out, he kept his promise and did not leak the matter of seeing Luo Puppet, but he inexplicably offended a Yuanying powerhouse in an unwarranted disaster, and was restrained by the other party and searched for his soul, so Luo Puppet's matter was exposed.
It was not enough for Luo Puppet to wantonly kill the disciples of various sects and sects in the valley, and also refined some of the people he captured alive into human puppets. The methods are cruel, cold-blooded and ruthless, so they have the nickname of puppet demons.
The existence of Luo Puppet has seriously threatened the normal trials of the disciples of the major sects in the "Water Mirror Lost Valley", which is intolerable to the bigwigs of these sects.
The "Water Mirror Lost Valley" not only prohibits monks who have cultivated to the above realm during the foundation building period to enter, but even auxiliary items such as talismans and array disks that exceed the corresponding level cannot be brought in.
However, this is difficult to do, and the major sect forces that have already decided to get rid of Luo Puppet. Soon, the four fourth-level sects of the Lingxi Divine Palace, Haofeng Academy, Qingtian Sect and Tibetan Xuandian joined forces, and gave the Heart of Ronghai containing the full blow of the Jindan Great Perfection Monk to the next time they were sent into the valley, and let them join forces to destroy the Luo Puppet.
Luo Puppet, who thought that he had already eaten the trial of the Valley, was finally ambushed by the four monks when he came out to hunt and kill the target of refining the puppet again, and the power of the four Rong Hai Hearts turned Luo Puppet into nothingness on the spot.
Just when everyone thought that Luo Puppet had been destroyed, a terrifying scene appeared. Behind them, another Luo puppet appeared.
The slaughter resumed.
The four monks of the various sects who built the foundation of the Great Perfection were not Luo Puppet's enemies at all, and they were quickly killed by the other party one by one, and the last person was even captured by Luo Puppet and refined into a human puppet.
It turned out that Luo Puppet didn't know what method he used, and he actually cultivated a clone. The one who was burned into ashes by the four Ronghai Hearts before was just his clone.
However, after this battle, Luo Puppet finally relented. He was very jealous that the major sects outside the valley would continue to use Rong Hai's heart against him at any cost, so he asked the other trialists to bring the words back, and from then on, with the Desperate Fog Forest as the boundary, as long as the trialists who entered the valley did not trespass on the forbidden land, he would never take the initiative to come out and cause killing.
After dozens of consecutive openings of the "Water Mirror Lost Valley", Luo Puppet really kept his promise and did not come out to hunt anyone again. And the trialists who entered the Desperate Fog Forest with a temptation mentality, no matter how high their cultivation was, all of them did not come out alive without exception.
Gradually, the Desperate Fog Forest became the real forbidden place of the "Water Mirror Lost Valley", and the legend of Luo Puppet was forgotten by later generations because of its age.
Fei Hongming was born in a fourth-level sect like Haofeng Academy, and he was a powerhouse in the half-step Jindan Realm, so he had also heard of these things back then.
It stands to reason that he chased Cao Fan to the Desperate Fog Forest at that time, and he should not have crossed the Thunder Pond again. But more than 1,000 years have passed since then, and a monk in the Dan period can not survive for 800 years. In other words, it is very likely that Luo Golem has already exhausted his lifespan and died in the Desperate Fog Forest. When he entered the fog forest this time, he could not only find the secret of Cao Fan's body, but also have the opportunity to find the place where Luo Puppet was buried and get the treasure on the other party's body.
As for Luo Puppet may break through to the Yuanying realm in these years, Fei Hongming doesn't believe it at all. The rules of heaven and earth in the "Water Mirror Lost Valley" do not support the existence of cultivation above the foundation building period, let alone the Yuanying realm. Moreover, Luo Puppet was destroyed by a doppelganger, although the body survived, but the soul was mutilated, and the road to the Yuan Infant was cut off.
It was precisely because of these considerations that Fei Hongming instigated Duguyan to accompany him to venture into the forbidden land. It's just that what he didn't expect was that not only did Luo Puppet not die, but the Dao Law was still so profound. At that moment, the Qianli Sonic Power did not have the strength of the Yuan Infant Stage, and it was impossible for him to have such terrifying power.
At this time, Dugu Yan also woke up, although she and Fei Hongming couldn't open their eyes either, their divine sense could still detect everything in the hall. With her knowledge, she naturally thought of the puppet demon who made the trialists who entered the valley change their complexion back then.
"Senior Brother Fei, what should I do?" asked Dugu Yanchuanyin. Her cultivation in this life has always been smooth, and she has never encountered such a battle at all. But she was an anxious person again, and at this time, there were no six gods in her heart, so she pinned her hopes on Fei Hongming.
Fei Hongming is now unable to protect himself, but he still transmits Dugu Yan and said: "It's okay." After a while, if the Naro puppet really comes, you and I will immediately use all the hole cards on our bodies. As long as we take advantage of their unpreparedness and seriously injure each other, we will have a chance to escape. ”
"Good. Dugu Yan's heart suddenly ignited hope again. She also had a Jindan-level Ronghai Heart on her body that her master gave her to save her life, and she suddenly used it to pose a threat to the puppet demons.
At this moment, a man in a black robe walked into the main hall. This man's face is a little white, and his face looks a little old, but the contours of his facial features are quite symmetrical, and it can be vaguely seen that most of them were also a dashing son with a jade tree in the wind when he was young.
"Tut-tut, I harvested three such high-quality human puppets in one day, I didn't wait for so many years in vain. The black-robed man with an old face looked at the three people on the ice bed with great satisfaction, and smiled sadly.
