"Chi!" The Dantian burst, and the spiritual power spurted out with blood.
"Why, why?" Xiao Yujin slowly fell to the ground, looking at the old man in disbelief and unwillingness.
"When I accepted you as my disciple, I thought you had some qualifications and scheming, but I didn't expect that you were so good on the outside but wasted on the inside. After so many years, you didn't even get the position of head of the family.
What's the use of keeping this kind of waste?" the old man said coldly.
"So that's it, it turns out you were just using me from the beginning." Xiao Yujin fell down helplessly.
At this moment, he finally realized the sadness of being abandoned. Although the injury was not fatal, there was no life on his face, and his heart was as sad as death.
The old man still had an indifferent expression on his face, and without even looking at him, he waved his hand towards the crack in space.
"Stop!" The head of the Xiao family and others suddenly woke up. Now is not the time to be angry for Xiao Yujin. The top priority is to stop this old man.
With sharp shouts, they simultaneously drew their swords and flew towards the old man.
More than ten sword rays were cut down in an interlocking manner, emitting divine light as dazzling as the scorching sun. The weakest among them had reached the peak of divine transformation, while the strongest had reached the state of integration.
Surprisingly, the old man neither resisted nor dodged this time, but allowed the sword light to drown him.
There was a loud noise in the hall, and the old figure turned into nothingness under the light of the sword.
The head of the Xiao family and others held the hilts of their swords and looked at each other with surprise and confusion in their eyes.
Although the old man's true cultivation level cannot be seen, since he can break through space with his bare hands, he must be a strong man above the body. How could he be killed by one of their swords so easily?
Besides, he is not dead, so why would he be motionless and waiting for them to chop him down? Even if he is too old and impatient to live and wants to die, there is no need to find such a way to die, right?
"Yuan Shen Puppet, retreat!" At this time, Gu Qingxi suddenly shouted and played a magic talisman.
The reason why she didn't rush to take action against the old man just now was because she realized that this man was a bit strange, so she watched him quietly and took precautions.
The head of the Xiao family and others were shocked when they heard this.
The so-called soul puppet, as the name suggests, is a puppet made from the soul. It sounds a bit similar to the sword spirit made by Xiao Dingtian, the ancestor of the Xiao family, who stripped off his soul, but in fact it is completely different.
Xiao Dingtian stripped his own soul to refine the sword spirit, but the soul puppet was made from the souls of other monks.
Compared with the monk's body, the soul is too fragile, so it is certainly not easy to make it into a puppet. Not only must you choose a monk who has become a god or above, but you must also use highly toxic substances to continuously refine his soul until the soul can become a puppet.
Only when you are tough enough can you become a puppet.
This process of tempering usually lasts for ten years or even hundreds of years. It is not difficult to imagine what kind of inhuman torture and pain the selected monks have to go through before they can escape from the sea of suffering.
According to historical records, a thousand monks who are above the level of god transformation are considered lucky if they can finally refine a soul puppet.
Because the method of refining Yuanshen Puppet is too cruel and completely unscrupulous, it was classified as a forbidden evil technique tens of thousands of years ago. Anyone who practices this technique will be jointly pursued by the immortal sect and the devil.
kill.
Over time, the method of refining the Soul Puppet was completely lost. In today's world of cultivation, except for families and sects like the Xiao family that have been passed down for a long time, most monks do not know that this kind of evil technique once existed in the world of cultivation.
When the head of the Xiao family and others thought of this, they did not dare to think any more and flew back instinctively.
Almost at the same time, an old figure suddenly exploded in the narrow space crack.
Self-destruction, this soul puppet actually self-destructed.
In an instant, the heads of the Xiao family and others felt cold in their hearts.
They knew very well that at such a close distance, they could not avoid the opponent's self-destruction. And they had no reservations about the angry sword strike just now, and at this time they did not have enough spiritual power to spread the protective aura.
This also means: They are dead!
At the critical moment, the talisman played by Gu Qingxi suddenly exploded in front of them. The crystal talisman light circulated, forming a barrier like a sky curtain, protecting them as they retreated.
"Boom!" With the loud noise, the entire Devil's Heart Palace shook violently, and even nearly half of the dome was blown away.
What a terrifying power of self-destruction!
Even though they had retreated to the edge of the hall and were protected by the spiritual talisman barrier set up by Gu Qingxi, the Xiao family head and others still hit the wall heavily, and they were all disgraced.
When they got up, their expressions had completely changed.
You must know that this Devil's Heart Palace is completely built with lapis lazuli and reinforced with layers of formations. Even if a dozen strong men in the Fusion Realm attack at the same time, they will not be able to destroy it for a while.
But now, just one self-destruction of the soul puppet caused the roof of the hall to fly off.
This is also the reason why those ancient powerful people knew that refining soul puppets was unconscionable, but they still enjoyed it.
Regardless of the fact that the monks used to refine the Yuan Shen Puppet may only have the ability to transform themselves into gods, if they are refined, they can contain part of the refiner's spiritual power.
If the refiner himself is Mahayana, relying on this part of the spiritual power, the Yuanshen puppet can burst into the realm of integration and even transcend tribulation.
Moreover, if the soul puppet is destroyed, it will not have any adverse effects on the refiner. In addition, because it is incorporeal, it is often safer and more useful than the Yuanying out-of-body experience.
For example, this time, the Yuanshen puppet easily avoided the swords of the Xiao Family Master and others, and then calmly self-destructed.
Fortunately, Gu Qingxi warned them early and they retreated in time. At the same time, they were protected by her magical talisman barrier. Otherwise, even if they could escape death, they would definitely be seriously injured and their cultivation would be greatly damaged.
"It's over, it's over!" However, although they escaped, the Xiao family head and others were not happy at all. Their faces were pale, and one of the elders even succumbed to his feet and collapsed to the ground again.
The reason is very simple: it was not only the Demon Heart Palace that was damaged, but the space crack in the center of the hall was also blown into a large hole with a diameter of ten feet by the self-destruction of the Yuanshen Puppet.
Looking inside, the blood crows were getting closer and closer. They had already heard the tooth-grinding "croak" screams, and even smelled the thick, disgusting smell of blood.
If it is just a small space crack, if they all join forces, they may be able to block the blood crow and find a way to repair the space crack.
If it doesn't work, you can immediately send out manpower to ask for help from other demonic cultivator families and immortal sects.
It is related to the safety and survival of the entire Tiancang Continent. I believe that not only the Demonic Way, but also the Immortal Sect will do their best to help.
But the space barrier was destroyed by the soul puppet, and thousands or even tens of thousands of blood crows swarmed in. With their strength, they probably couldn't even hold on for half a quarter of an hour, and how could they have time to repair it?
Where is the time to send someone for help?
Even though everyone present was a demon cultivator, and after years of hard training, their minds were as firm as iron, but at this moment, they still couldn't help but feel despair.
Facing a certain death situation, and thinking that their nearly ten thousand-year-old foundation was about to be destroyed in their hands, they couldn't even muster the fighting spirit they deserved.
Gu Qingxi saw their frustration, but didn't say anything. Instead, she took a step forward, drew her sword and struck at the group of blood crows that were flying closer and closer.
The Seven Swords of Meteorite, the first sword: the sword breaks mountains and rivers!
This time, Gu Qingxi showed off her strongest sword skills without reservation.
The spiritual power that had been accumulated for a long time surged out with the Yafeng Divine Sword, turning into a towering sword light that exploded violently in the turbulent flow of space.
Among the blood crows, dazzling red dots splashed out like blood beads, and were soon turned into powder by the turbulent flow of space. The blood crows that were swarming towards them were also stagnant.
What a powerful sword skill! Isn’t Gu Qingxi a master of medicine and a master of alchemy? How could he display such a powerful sword skill?
Also, judging from the fluctuations in spiritual energy on her body, she should be at the peak of her divine transformation.
Is this kind of sword skill really something that a peak god can display?
Even though they knew that Gu Qingxi was the reincarnation of a strong man that their ancestors had followed, everyone in the Xiao family was still shocked when they saw the power of her sword, and some even rubbed their eyes involuntarily.
