Therefore, the practice of corpse puppets is almost a taboo in the world of cultivation. However, the production of corpse puppets consumes fewer resources, and many practitioners cannot resist the temptation and will embark on the path of corpse puppets, eventually becoming evil demons.
"I really hope I can see him die here with my own eyes!" Lu Yuan said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Tong Shan and Luo Ye couldn't help but look at each other, and then a bitter smile appeared on their faces.
"Brother Lu, your idea is good, but there are many insects, beasts and puppets on the body of Corpse Gu Zhenren, and there is also a corpse puppet clone at the Martial Emperor level. His ability to preserve his life is very strong, and the possibility of his death is not great." Luo Ye sighed lightly.
Whether it is the way of insect beasts or puppets, they can easily make up for the weaknesses of practitioners. Without obvious weaknesses, their strength and even their ability to survive will increase. This kind of practitioners are also the most difficult to kill. However, Corpse Gu Zhenren is good at both the way of insect beasts and corpse puppets. His ability to survive is more terrifying, and naturally it is more difficult to fall.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan's expression changed slightly, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face. Although he really wanted Master Shi Gu to die here, as Luo Ye said, Master Shi Gu was best at saving his life. It would be too difficult to kill him!
“The life-saving ability of Corpse Gu Zhenren is indeed very strong, but without the Corpse Puppet clone, both his own strength and life-saving ability will be greatly affected.” Yang Qi suddenly said.
"No more corpse puppet clones?"
After these words were spoken, Luo Ye and the other two were stunned.
"I accepted the killing before..."
Yang Qi immediately told the story of how he had accepted the mission to kill the Ten Thousand Witch King, but fell into the Ten Thousand Witch King's trap, was chased by the Corpse Gu Master, and finally escaped to the Tianji Palace.
After listening to Yang Qi's narration, Luo Ye immediately looked incredulous and said, "The corpse puppet clone of Corpse Gu Master is gone just like that?"
The Martial Emperor-level corpse puppet clone of Master Shi Gu was a very famous skill among low-level Martial Emperors. No one expected that it would just disappear like that. It was a bit hard to believe.
“Our knowledge of the Tianji Palace is very limited. If I hadn’t been injured at the time, I might have taken direct action when the Ten Thousand Witch King appeared.” Yang Qi said with a wry smile.
Speaking of it, Master Shi Gu had pretty good luck. If a cultivator who didn't know the rules of Tianji Palace came in and took action, he would have been killed directly. Master Shi Gu only lost his clone, which was a blessing in disguise!
"this… "
After hearing this, Luo Ye and Tong Shan were also a little amused.
They have long known that there are some areas in the Tianji Palace where they cannot take action, but not everyone knows this information, and independent cultivators like Corpse Gu Zhenren and the Ten Thousand Witch King obviously do not know it.
"Without the corpse puppet clone, Corpse Gu Zhenren's strength and life-saving ability have been greatly reduced. He might really die here." Luo Ye looked at Lu Yuan and said.
Although the danger of Corpse Gu Zhenren has increased greatly, no one knows whether he will die in the end. All we can say is that the chance of Corpse Gu Zhenren dying is greater.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan nodded immediately. It was still unknown whether Master Shi Gu could leave Tianji Palace alive, but at least Master Shi Gu's situation was now worse, which was undoubtedly good news.
"Brother Luo, we have entered the Tianji Palace for some time. When can we leave the hall in front of us?" Yang Qi looked at Luo Ye and said.
He was the first cultivator to enter the Tianji Palace and had stayed here the longest. It was precisely because of this that he was curious about when he could leave the hall in front of him.
"It's almost there. According to records, there are two passages leading into the Tianji Palace, one black and one white vortex. Each vortex can eventually accommodate eighty-one people. Now we have gathered more than seventy people here. If a few more people arrive, we can leave the hall in front of us." Luo Ye said.
"Is that so?"
Yang Qi's eyes lit up, but he was not in a hurry to leave the hall. After all, he couldn't take action here and it was absolutely safe. Now, he was still a few people short of the eighty-one people, so he still had some time.
Yang Qi's eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and he immediately said to Luo Ye and the other two standing beside him, "Brother Lu, Brother Luo, thank you for helping me protect the law, I am ready to break through to the peak of the Martial King!"
In the previous fight with Corpse Gu Master, Yang Qi had already raised his realm to the peak level of Martial King, but because he was unable to directly raise his cultivation to the peak level of Martial King during the battle, his soul was injured and it was not suitable for breaking through to the peak level of Martial King. Now that he has recovered, there is still some time before leaving the hall in front of him, but he can use this opportunity to break through to the peak level of Martial King.
"No problem. I also want to see how strong you will be after you break through to the peak of Martial King, Brother Yang." Tong Shan said with a chuckle.
Immediately, Yang Qi sat down cross-legged, ready to break through to the peak of Martial King.
“Damn it, this brat actually has such a close relationship with the practitioners of Xuanming Sect. There are ten peak Martial Kings in Xuanming Sect, plus Yang Qi and that burly man. Given my current situation, it’s not an easy task to kill him.” Looking at Yang Qi who was chatting and laughing with Luo Ye, Master Shi Gu’s eyes became gloomy again.
If the corpse puppet clone was still there, with Corpse Gu Zhenren's strength, he would not be afraid even if Yang Qi's number doubled. But now not only did he lose the corpse puppet clone, even his soul was injured. If he wanted to deal with more than ten peak Martial King practitioners, the difficulty would naturally double.
Seeing this, the Wanwu King on the side immediately said, "Master Corpse Gu, don't worry. I don't believe that those Xuanming Sect practitioners will stay with him forever. Once they separate, it's time for us to take action."
"Hmph~"
Master Shi Gu snorted coldly, knowing that this was the only way to kill Yang Qi.
"What is he doing?"
At this moment, Master Shi Gu discovered that Yang Qi had gone into seclusion again.
However, this time, there were two more practitioners guarding him, two peak martial king practitioners from the Xuanming Sect. Yang Qi had already set up an isolation formation, and Corpse Gu Master didn't know what Yang Qi was doing inside the formation.
As time passed, as Yang Qi retreated and broke through the peak of Martial King, practitioners arrived one after another. In a blink of an eye, the number of practitioners entering the hall had reached eighty people. As long as one more person came, they would be able to leave the palace in front of them.
Bang! Bang!
Muffled sounds were heard in the void, and a figure was seen in front of the black vortex, constantly rushing towards the black vortex. After being blocked, he immediately rushed towards the black passage again.
A practitioner looked at the bald man and muttered to himself, "Is this the first time he has tried this?"
"It seems to be the sixteenth time. I didn't count exactly." said a practitioner nearby.
The bald man in front of him had already reached the outside of the black vortex, but was stopped. However, the bald man was different from other practitioners. He never gave up and kept trying. Compared with the three or five attempts of ordinary practitioners, he tried countless times more. But even so, he still could not enter the black vortex. (To be continued)
