Chapter 74 Puppet Beast

Following He Changan and the others, they headed inward. The further they went in, the more golden-armored warriors and puppet beasts were guarding them.

Although these golden-armored warriors are not strong, their invincible bodies are really a headache. Coupled with the appearance of various puppet beasts one after another, even with the strength of the two factions of the Celestial Beasts, it is quite a headache.

Fortunately, they finally arrived in front of the central hall.

This is a hall nearly a hundred feet high. The building is majestic and covers a vast area. The entire courtyard is enlarged to the extreme, as if it is used for giants to enter and exit.

On both sides of the palace gate are two huge monster statues, one is the Taoist and the other is the Haechi, both of which are mythical beasts in ancient legends.

There is also a faint layer of energy brilliance covering the outside of the hall, which means that it is protected by a certain energy mask.

The proud-winged tiger casually picked up a beast-turned-warrior and threw it, and saw the man hit the light shield while wailing, and then heard a crackling sound, and a purple electric light appeared on the hall, striking the beast-turned-warrior. On the warrior's body, the beast-turned-warrior turned into ashes without even letting out a howl.

Everyone's faces looked ugly at the same time.

He Changan said: "It should be the Purple Tiangang Formation, a protective formation with extremely strong counterattack capabilities."

Tang Jie glanced at He Changan in surprise: "It turns out that the King of Heaven also knows the formation."

He Changan was right. This was indeed the Purple Tiangang Formation, an ancient protective formation. I didn't expect He Changan to have such vision.

He Changan replied calmly: "I don't really understand, but as I live longer, I will see more. If you really want to break the formation, you still need masters who specialize in this way."

As he spoke, he turned back to look at Xu Mingyue.

After Ling Tianqi died, the formation master here became Xu Mingyue again.

In front of He Changan, Xu Mingyue did not dare to put on airs and could only reply: "The Purple Tiangang Formation is unparalleled and it is an ancient formation. I have limited understanding of it. Fortunately, the royal court is broken and thousands of years have passed. , in fact, it also has a great influence on this Ziji Tiangang Formation. When this formation was launched just now, judging from its performance, it was obvious that there were many damages. As long as you find the key nodes, you can succeed with one blow. But in this way, you need Just cooperate with me."

"You are in charge of breaking the formation. Everyone below me will obey your command." He Changan said calmly.

"Yes." Xu Mingyue was not polite and started directing. Her method of breaking the formation is very simple;

That is to send people to attack the formation in turn to trigger a counterattack. Xu Mingyue took the opportunity to observe, find the weak points, and achieve success in one fell swoop.

This method is far from the best, but it is the most reliable.

At this moment, she was making arrangements when she suddenly heard a voice in the distance: "Hey, wait for me!"

Looking back, I saw Jin Yutang running over like flying, followed by the old housekeeper and his group of servants. I don't know how he got these people together again.

Seeing He Changan and the others at this moment, Jin Yutang rushed over excitedly. While he was happy, the faces of He Changan, Nan Ningjiang, and others became wonderful at the same time.

In fact, they had spotted Jin Yutang once before, but no one wanted to be with this incompetent playboy, so they took the initiative to avoid him. Even Ao Yihu turned around and walked away silently after discovering Jin Yutang.

Unexpectedly, he still couldn't escape him, and this bastard actually ran to the central hall by himself. Although he didn't have much ability, the team his father left for him were really strong. They easily killed all over the garden and found the young master.

Seeing that it was Jin Yutang at this moment, He Changan snorted: "Stand aside and don't make any noise."

Jin Yutang paused.

He was still a little afraid of He Changan. Seeing what He Changan said, he lost a little bit of excitement to find his own person, and his voice became much lower. He walked into the crowd, but everyone was shouting. Say hello: "Hey, how are you?"

When he came to Tang Jie, he put his arms around his shoulders and whispered: "What good treasure did you find?"

Tang Jie shook his head: "There are monsters and puppet beasts everywhere, there are no treasures anywhere."

Jin Yutang pretended to be mysterious and smiled: "I finally got a treasure."

As he spoke, he took out an object from the mustard bag, but it was the crystal core of a puppet beast.

It's just that this crystal core is much larger than what Tang Jie got before. The silver light flows, and it can be seen at a glance that it is not a mortal object. It is probably given by a puppet beast of a certain level.

Jin Yutang definitely couldn't defeat this kind of thing, and it was probably his old butler who did it.

Tang Jie could only nod and said, "It's a treasure."

The ancient puppet technique is different from today's. It relies on crystal cores instead of legal formations as the key. Such a crystal core is estimated to be able to create at least a fifth-grade puppet. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a treasure.

Jin Yutang smiled proudly.

Just as he was about to say more, he suddenly saw two statues in front of the hall.

His eyes lit up and he said, "Look at those two? They seem to be puppet beasts too."

Tang Jie whispered: "Yes, but they seem to be broken. Don't touch them, so as not to disturb the adults."

At this time, He Changan, Xuan Zhongzi and others had begun to attack the main hall in turns under the command of Xu Mingyue, triggering purple lightning and constantly dodging. At the same time, Xu Mingyue was also creating formation patterns one after another, affecting the operation of the formation while looking for Focus on the weak points of the formation.

Jin Yutang had nothing to do, so he said, "I'll go up and have a look."

Already walking up on his own, he came to the statue named Yaozhu, looked up and down, touched left and right, and it looked like a puppet beast, but it had stopped for some reason.

At that moment, Jin Yutang had a sudden thought, thinking that the puppet beast might have been in disrepair for a long time, but the crystal core inside might not be broken. If you go and take it out, wouldn't you make another fortune?

He did what he thought of, stretched out his hand and touched the Tao Tzu's mouth. While touching it, he was still muttering: "Where is it? Where is it?"

He touched vigorously, and gradually stretched his whole arm in. He didn't even notice that the eyes of the Tao Tzu suddenly moved.

He dug and dug desperately, almost sticking his whole head in.

Yaozhu's big eyes moved again. This time, they moved a bit too much, and everyone seemed to feel that something was wrong.

He saw a current of air spreading from Yongzhu's body, sweeping around like a wind.

The Tao Tzu's face moved even more, and he looked down with his big eyes, looking at this bastard who was digging and digging in his mouth, and there was already a gurgling sound in his mouth.

Jin Yutang finally realized something was wrong.

He stuck his head out and looked upward, meeting Yongzhu's eyes.

At that moment, he saw the red light flashing in Yaozhu's cold eyes.

Jin Yutang swallowed hard: "Oh my god."

At this time, one of his arms was even in Yongzhu's mouth.

Yongzhu's mouth was already wide open, and just when he was about to close it, a figure suddenly rushed out, hugged Jin Yutang and jumped forward. It was the old housekeeper.

At the same time, the big mouth of the Tao Tzu also slammed shut, making a violent sound.

The next moment, Yaozhu raised his head and shouted, making a deafening roar.

Along with the roar, the Haechi on the opposite side also suddenly moved, its eyes shining brightly.

As soon as these two big guys moved, the entire central hall shook with a bang. The Purple Tiangang Formation was not weak but strong, emitting unprecedented light and shooting out countless lightnings in an instant, causing He Changan and others to dodge.

"Jin Yutang! What the hell are you doing?" Ao Yihu almost went crazy.

He never dreamed that something like this would happen at this time.

This idiot actually awakened the two strongest puppet beasts that were already broken.

Yes, wake up!

These two puppet beasts are different from the others. They are not completely puppet beasts. They also have demon souls inside them.

Although the puppet beast with the demon soul is powerful, it is also more affected by time. Tens of thousands of years have made the demon soul fall into a deep sleep, and it will never wake up easily.

For this reason, He Changan and others ignored them and chose to open the main hall first. If they could find a way to control these two puppet beasts, not only would there be less of a battle, but they would also get two powerful puppet beasts.

Unexpectedly, Jin Yutang came up and messed up the matter.

At this moment, the two puppet beasts woke up and immediately set off an earth-shattering lineup. Just by hearing their roars, you can tell that they are no ordinary existence.

At this moment, the Yongzhu stepped on its four hooves, and a flame spread from under its feet, rolling towards everyone. At the same time, Xie Zhi lowered his head, and a piece of thunder and lightning lit up on the horn above his head, striking towards everyone. .

As soon as these two beasts took action, they were powerful spells, completely beyond the performance of a puppet beast, as if what everyone faced was not a puppet but two ancient monsters.

"Be careful!" Tang Jie shouted loudly, but the man stepped back.

He could tell at a glance that these two puppet beasts were extraordinary in strength. Although they were not real divine beasts, they were extremely powerful.

Sure enough, the next moment, the proud-winged tiger had rushed up and struck out with a heavy sword at the puppet beast Tao Zhu. A streak of blood rolled up on the heavy sword. It was the nine-kill sword that the proud-winged tiger was best at.

This sword technique, Proud Winged Tiger, was inherited from the True Monarch of Blood Killing and was improved with his own understanding. It is said that the world can be cut with one sword strike, which shows how powerful it is. At this moment, he struck out with all his strength, and Yaozhu didn't dodge. He just raised his head and sprayed out a large stream of fire from his mouth.

The fire flow actually condensed into substance and turned into a flaming sword to face the proud winged tiger's sword.

When the swords collided, the proud-winged tiger found that his sword could not break the flame knife of Yongzhu. On the contrary, under its urging, the flames of the long sword surged, violently knocking the proud-winged tiger away.

At that moment, the proud-winged tiger sheathed his sword and danced out twelve sword lights in succession. Only then was he able to withstand the flame attack. He was horrified in his heart and blurted out: "Level 6, this is the puppet at the peak of Level 6." !”

At the peak of the sixth level, it is equivalent to a puppet in the soul transformation stage. No wonder it can knock away the proud-winged tiger with one blow.

At the same time that the Proud Winged Tiger was being repelled, Yongzhu and Xiezhi pounced on them at the same time. Not only that, even the Purple Tiangang Formation actively attacked under their pull. Even if He Changan and the others stopped, it would be useless. .

"Ah!" Xu Mingyue exclaimed loudly.

At least four purple electric rays struck her at the same time.

Seeing the purple lightning approaching, a palm print came from a distance and scattered the purple lightning.

It was He Changan.

He Changan had an angry look on his face at this time: "Why don't you get rid of those two puppet beasts quickly? I will bear this formation!"

As he spoke, he shot his palms continuously, creating countless palm shadows, which actually blocked all the electric light emitted by the Purple Tiangang Formation.

Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene. You must know that this is a six-level formation!

The power of formations has always been higher than that of cultivators of the same level, otherwise the formations would have no meaning in existence. The sixth level of the Purple Tiangang Formation means that anyone below the Soul Transformation level can be killed. Therefore, everyone used to dodge and no one planned to resist forcefully. Unexpectedly, when He Changan really launched his threat, even the sixth-level formation could resist him.

"What are you still doing?" He Changan roared angrily.

The next moment, two figures rushed towards Xie Zhi at the same time, it was Xuan Zhongzi and the old housekeeper.

The old butler finally showed his true strength at this moment. He was indeed a soul. Not only that, his strength was even stronger than Xuan Zhongzi.

At this moment, he was heading straight towards the Xie Zhi with its one-horned electric discharge. It was not seen what weapon he was using. He raised his hands together and danced out a claw shadow. He hit the Xie Zhi, and there was a continuous banging sound. .

This knocking is like a woodpecker pecking at wood. This deer is originally made of extremely hard ten thousand-year-old purple phoenix tree. Although it is wood, its quality is better than fine gold. But under the attack of the old housekeeper's claws, he was pecked with pieces of sawdust.

Hae Zhi seemed to know that if he continued like this, he would be penetrated sooner or later. The demon soul controlling the puppet suddenly let out a long roar, and the horn above its head condensed a super huge thunder and lightning flash. This time, it no longer separated, but struck directly at the old housekeeper.

The old housekeeper didn't hide, he just laughed.

Just as the huge pillar of thunder and lightning crashed down, his figure suddenly turned into smoke and disappeared. The lightning struck through his smoke-like body and struck in the air. The next moment, the smoke condensed again, reappearing the shadow of the old butler. As soon as he grabbed and struck out, five finger holes were left on the body of the Haechi puppet. He said happily: "Idiots are idiots, how can they compete with others."

While speaking, his five fingers exerted force again, emitting sharp light, which actually completely penetrated the Haechi.

This scene fell in Tang Jie's eyes, and he almost screamed.

Split jade finger!

The old butler clearly used split jade fingers!

It's just that instead of using one finger, he can use all ten fingers to activate the cracking jade finger. What he uses is not finger skill, but grasping strength.

It's just that this cracked jade claw became extremely sharp and its power was even more amazing.

Tang Jie was also stunned by this scene.

He had never thought that someone could use the Split Jade Finger in such a gorgeous and powerful way.

At that moment, an idea flashed in his mind, and he finally knew who the old butler was.

This person's name is Zhu Yun, and like Zang Qingfeng, he is also a traitor to the Xiyue Sect.

It is said that this person was also considered a talent in the Xiyue Sect in his early years, and the split jade finger was what he was best at at the time. If he had been devoted to the Tao, he would have had a bright future, but it was a pity that he was greedy for sex and committed countless cases secretly. After the Xiyue Sect found out, they planned to punish him, but they didn't expect that they knew the opportunity early and escaped first.

No one knows where he fled to. Since then, the Moon Washing Sect has never found his whereabouts. Many people even thought he was dead.

Unexpectedly, he ran away to the Beast Refining Sect and became the person who killed the True Lord. He even became his son's housekeeper and bodyguard.

Thinking about it, only the Beast Refining Sect would take in the traitors of the Xiyue Sect without any problems.

At this moment, the old butler continuously used Ghost Claw, and the Haechi was suppressed by him and could not move. It suddenly let out a long howl, turned and rushed towards the others, and actually changed the target of the attack.

The puppet beast with the demon soul is no longer an ordinary dead thing, but has wisdom. Knowing that he can't defeat him, he turns to kill others, killing every one he can.

The old housekeeper did not expect that Haechi would have such a choice. When Haechi rushed out, a large electric light once again lit up from the horn above his head, surrounding a group of people, including Jin Yutang.

This was a blow that Haechi struck with all its power, and its power was many times greater than before.

At this moment, seeing thunder and lightning striking Jin Yutang's head, he was so frightened that he almost flew away. No matter how dandy Jin Yutang is, he is still the son of the Blood-killing True Monarch. If anything happens to him, he will be completely ruined.

At this moment, a figure rushed out of the diagonal stab. He hugged Jin Yutang and pressed him down. It was Tang Jie who took the lightning for him.

He is a heavenly spirit body, and he is made of flesh and blood and has a strong resistance to lightning. Therefore, the lightning failed to kill him in the end. However, it still made his whole body numb and his entire back was rotten.

As for others, it's even worse.

Below Tianxin, most people died on the spot due to the power of this electricity. Only a few people outside the minefield managed to escape.

Not everyone can resist even Tianxin. The seventh of the twelve eagles was killed by lightning on the spot. Another Tianxin master brought by the proud winged tiger died. Ming Yezhen escaped with his own space magic. , but still suffered some minor injuries due to the lightning wave. Except for the three old housekeepers of Chang'an Xuan Zhongzi and Zhu Yun, almost everyone was injured. The only one who was not injured was Jin Yutang, who was pinned down by Tang Jie.

However, after releasing this blow, the Haechi apparently reached its end. The old housekeeper caught up with him and grabbed him, tearing out the core of the puppet beast from the inside. On the other side, Yao Zhu obviously knew that it was going to be impossible, so he let out a wailing cry and tried to repeat his old tricks.

Seeing the burst of sky-scorching flames raging from its body, everyone was horrified. If the flames burst out again, I'm afraid several more Tianxins would fall.

Tang Jie even pulled Jin Yutang back.

At this moment, He Changan suddenly stepped back.

He resisted the Purple Tiangang Formation on his own. He faced the main hall and turned his back to everyone. At this moment, he retreated, but as if there were eyes in the back of his head, he was retreating towards the crowd, passing by Yongzhu's side, and hitting the sky with palm shadows to meet the lightning in the air. At the same time, he gently extended a palm to his side with his right hand.

This palm was pressing on the head of Yongzhu.

He actually still had the energy to help.

The next moment, the flames that had originally shot up were actually rolled back by this palm, and swept back into Yaozhu's body.

At this opportunity, no one could delay. Xuan Zhongzi's Heavenly Tablet Palm, Old Butler's Cracked Jade Claw, Ao-Wing Hu's Kaitian Nine Killing Sword and Nan Ningjiang's Golden Eagle Claw had all hit Yongzhu's body at the same time.

Accompanied by a huge earthquake, the tree was beaten to pieces.

A crystal core flashing with demon soul smoke flew up, but this time it was caught by the Proud Winged Tiger.

The two puppet beasts were finally eliminated, and everyone wiped sweat from their foreheads at the same time.

It's so difficult just to enter the temple. I really don't know what to do if I enter the temple.

Without the obstruction of the puppet beast, everyone rejoined the task of cracking the Purple Tiangang Formation, and He Changan's pressure was greatly reduced.

It's just that during this process, I couldn't help but be cold-eyed towards Jin Yutang, thinking that if it weren't for this bastard, how could there have been so many casualties.

You know, a lot of people died because of these two puppet beasts.

Although those cannon fodder have little combat effectiveness, they are an important support for testing the traps. Without them to test various attack attributes, the road ahead will be difficult. Not to mention Tianxin level losses.

When they thought of the huge loss and heartache, everyone couldn't help but complain about Tang Jie, why did he save the boy when he had nothing to do?

The only people who were grateful to him were probably the old housekeeper and the proud winged tiger.

The old housekeeper Zhu Yun came over in person and bowed to Tang Jie: "Thank you, Mr. Qian, for saving my young master. I will never forget this kindness."

Tang Jie smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me, just give me the crystal core in your hand."

"Huh?" Zhu Yun was also dumbfounded. He didn't expect this guy to be so shameless and ask for treasure.

But now that the words had been spoken, he couldn't regret it, so he could only give the Xie Zhi's crystal core to Tang Jie.

Tang Jie took the crystal core and looked at Ao Wing Tiger. Ao Wing Tiger originally wanted to say thank you, but seeing this posture, he felt that it was better not to say thank you.
