Looking at the corpses on the ground, Yang Qi's expression became more and more solemn. The situation was more serious than he expected. The fact that Mu Yan and her group had to choose to die together showed that their situation had reached an extremely dangerous moment. Otherwise, they would not have chosen such a helpless method as dying together.
"The bodies are not completely cold yet. It seems they should be just ahead." Yang Qi checked the bodies on the ground and found that they were not completely cold yet. They still had some body temperature. It seemed that the battle here must have taken place a few hours ago.
In this way, Mu Yan and others should not go too far.
Yang Qi walked along the blood trail for two or three hundred meters, but saw a barren land in front of him. There were almost no living creatures in the whole area. It was like a desert. There was nothing else except land.
"Strange, why is it like this here?" Looking at the clear outline of the green plants and the barren land, Yang Qi's face became even more embarrassed.
This valley is probably not just a place where a sect was destroyed.
“Da~Da~”
At this moment, a faint gunshot was suddenly heard from the front. Yang Qi's face changed, and he stepped on the ground, and rushed towards the direction where the gunshot came from as fast as lightning.
However, the situations along the way made Yang Qi's face more and more solemn, because in this desolate area, the buildings did not show any signs of damage, but there was nothing there.
The buildings were intact, without any signs of a battle between strong men, but even ordinary plants could not survive. Such a strange situation made Yang Qi even more alert.
“Roar~”
At this moment, a huge roar of beast suddenly came from the front.
"What on earth is that?" Such a huge beast roar definitely couldn't be a poisonous insect. Poisonous insects are generally not large in size and it is impossible for them to make such a loud noise.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
Yang Qi pushed his body movements to the limit, and soon he saw that there were six or seven strange creatures in a hall in front of him, constantly attacking the hall, and the gunshots came from the hall.
“Roar~”
Suddenly, the two creatures at the back seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around to look at Yang Qi.
At this time, Yang Qi could see the appearance of these creatures clearly. Some of these creatures were similar to leopards, but they were not exactly the same. From them, Yang Qi could occasionally feel a strong aura, which was not comparable to that of ordinary leopards. The strength of these strange creatures was probably no less than that of warriors in the late stage of dark energy.
With such powerful creatures, and six or seven of them acting together, it’s no wonder that Mu Yan and her group were no match for them.
"die!"
Thinking of this, Yang Qi stepped on the ground, his figure flashed, and the long sword in his hand stabbed directly at several creatures outside the hall.
“Puff~Puff~”
The long sword pierced directly through the bodies of those creatures, and green liquid flowed out from the wounds.
"Puppet beast." Yang Qi's eyes focused, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. The long sword pierced into the bodies of these creatures, and he actually felt a trace of help. Although it was very weak, it did exist.
You know, the power of the mysterious weapons that have been fused with the golden sand of the stars has been greatly enhanced. Even steel can be cut like tofu, but on these creatures, resistance was actually felt.
Just from this point, Yang Qi knew that these creatures were not real flesh and blood creatures. You have to know the power of Xuanbing. Even a warrior at the martial artist level can be easily cut in half, let alone other flesh and blood creatures.
“Roar~”
As if to confirm Yang Qi's guess, the injured creatures suddenly roared. Even though their vital parts were injured, these creatures did not die!
“It’s actually a puppet beast.” Yang Qi’s eyes became serious. There are many ways to refine puppets. Among them, there are two simplest ones, which are also the two most common and most popular ones.
The first type is a puppet made from refining materials. This type of puppet is often very expensive to make, and because it has no spirituality, low-level puppets are not very useful. The other type is to make puppets with flesh and blood. This method is somewhat similar to the insect beast method, but compared to the insect beast method, this refining method has an advantage, that is, it can be made regardless of whether the flesh and blood body is dead or alive! Unlike the insect beast method, only living insect beasts can be cultivated to have combat effectiveness. Dead insect beasts are like warriors and pose no threat at all.
Once upon a time, there was a powerful sect in Tianwu Continent, the Corpse Puppet Sect. This sect specialized in refining puppets with the corpses of powerful men, and its strength was extremely strong. After all, warriors have a limited lifespan, while puppets have an unlimited lifespan. With the accumulation of generations, the strength of the Corpse Puppet Sect can be imagined.
If the Corpse Puppet Sect had not offended a Martial Emperor, it would never have been destroyed so easily.
The puppet beast in front of him was a puppet made of flesh and blood. This kind of puppet had one advantage: even if the strong person controlling them died, they could still fight instinctively.
The simplest way to deal with a puppet is to attack the puppet's core, but this is often the strongest part of the puppet's defense. Another way is to directly and violently bombard the puppet. Although the puppet's body is stronger, this strength also has a limit.
Thinking of this, Yang Qi used all his strength to mobilize the energy in his body. The next moment, he shook his sword, which turned into a sky full of sword lights, completely covering the puppet beasts.
“Puff~Puff~”
The sword light surged, directly turning those puppet beasts into sieves. The bodies of several puppet beasts twitched a few times and fell to the ground, unable to move anymore.
"Finally killed these guys." Looking at the puppets that could not move, Yang Qi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Puppets, like insect beasts, were very troublesome things.
Many large sects have puppets or insect beasts, because these things are almost completely loyal to their masters and will not betray them. A strong person who will never betray is absolutely an existence that no one can refuse.
"Mu Yan, are you okay?" After getting rid of the puppet beast outside the hall, Yang Qi asked loudly.
"Senior, is that you? We are fine, but three of them have broken into the hall." Mu Yan's voice came from the hall.
"There are three more?"
Yang Qi was stunned. With so many puppet beasts, even if a martial artist at the Huajin level came, he would probably die here. If Yang Qi didn't know the weaknesses of the puppet beasts, these puppet beasts had no one to control them. Even a martial artist at the peak of Huajin level might not be able to do anything to these puppet beasts.
You have to know that this sect has been destroyed for who knows how long, but it still has such means. If this sect is still there, how strong is the opponent? Then how strong must the force that destroyed this sect be
Shaking his head, Yang Qi didn't think any more. He stepped forward, flashed, and rushed into the hall in an instant.
As soon as he entered the hall, Yang Qi saw Mu Yan fighting with a puppet beast, while the other two members of the Ninth Bureau of the National Security Bureau stopped a puppet beast, and the others were using guns to entangle the last puppet beast. Even so, Mu Yan and his group were still at a disadvantage. (To be continued)
