Chapter 526: Chapter 353: Yinhuai Puppet, Punishing the Heavens with a Strike! (Part 2)
However, the body was ethereal, evidently a soul.
Yet, its gaze flickered with hatred, surprisingly retaining a bit of spiritual wisdom.
"Go, test this person for me; can he once again laugh proudly at the world? We’ll see today!"
Yinghuai Great Demon waved his sleeve, and suddenly a corpse appeared in the cave.
Though it was a corpse, its flesh was intact, its Dantian complete, looking as if merely asleep. And its appearance was exactly like that of the ghost.
Upon seeing this body, the ghost’s eyes filled with endless hatred, but it was futile.
Yinghuai Great Demon pointed a finger, and the man’s soul involuntarily flew into the corpse.
"Swish!"
Instantly, the corpse opened its eyes, and within the Dantian, a surge of Mana rolled tumultuously, with a faint vision of a Bright Moon rising and falling behind it.
Late Stage Golden Core!
The ghost entered the body, resurrecting the corpse, granting it the terrifying power of the Late Stage Golden Core.
Yinghuai, Yinhuai, a Ghost indeed!
As the Yinghuai Great Demon, he naturally played with souls, creating Yinhuai Puppets, and used them to defeat enemies.
The Tier Three High-grade Yinhuai Puppet before him was obtained from defeating an independent cultivator at the late stage of the Golden Core.
With these accomplishments and this puppet, he had the confidence to ambush.
"Go!"
Looking at the puppet before him, he smiled with satisfaction.
With a late-stage Golden Core puppet, he would surely determine the true identity of that yellow-faced man.
If it truly was Master Feiyu, he would immediately reveal himself, take him down two against one, seize the treasure, and then flee far away from the East Mountain Realm.
If, by chance, Master Feiyu broke through to the late stage of the Golden Core within that year at the Yunji Sect and his strength increased significantly, he would adjust his strategy according to the situation.
In any case, with this late-stage Golden Core puppet, he could fight or flee depending on his heart, ensuring a foolproof plan.
Yinghuai Great Demon felt proud, then with a thought, controlled the Yinhuai Puppet to rise into the clouds to ambush that yellow-faced man.
"Bang!"
But just then, a thread in his Divine Thought suddenly snapped.
"What?!"
As the thread snapped, his expression changed drastically, divine thoughts surged like tides, scanning all directions, yet found nothing.
This made his face change even further with surprise.
This thread was a "Soul String," his innate ability, which quietly spread like a web for tens of miles around the cave mansion, serving as a warning.
This Soul String was extremely secretive, hardly detectable by anyone below the Daoist Embryo, and if someone inadvertently broke in, the Soul String would snap immediately, alerting him.
But now the "Soul String" snapped, and his divine thoughts detected nothing, only one possibility!
The intruder’s Divine Soul Power was stronger than his!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The Soul Strings tangled like webs, a thousand threads entwined, but now all snapped, the piercing warning sound resonating like waves in his heart.
And as the Soul Strings all snapped, a blurred figure slowly appeared in the Yinghuai Great Demon’s divine thoughts, outside the cave.
It turned out to be a wide-faced, square-jawed, rather ugly yellow-faced man!
"Is it you? How is this possible?!"
Yinghuai Great Demon exclaimed in disbelief.
The Secret Technique he used for watching around was called "Thick Earth Ghost Giant Eye," capable of merging with the mountain cliff, observing enemies thousands of miles away, very profound. At this moment, although the Ghost Giant Eye appeared to retract into the cliff, it still monitored the Celestial Vault.
In the view of the Ghost Giant Eye, the yellow-faced man was still riding the clouds, heading north, how could he suddenly appear outside his true body’s cave?
"You use a Secret Technique to watch me, surely you have matters to discuss with me. I’ve come personally to show sincerity, yet why do you still frown?!"
A loud laugh echoed.
The Tier Three High-grade Restriction before the cave mansion was rendered useless, the yellow-faced man shifted from illusion to reality, appearing suddenly within the cave mansion with scattered water vapor.
This yellow-faced man was naturally Gu Yuan.
Having broken through to the late stage of the Golden Core, his strength greatly increased, though the Ghost Giant Eye was hidden beneath the mountain and thick soil, it was still detected by his extremely powerful soul thought.
Not only that, he followed the clues, tracing back to the source, directly locating the true body of the Yinghuai Great Demon.
Even Sunx Fashan’s Daoist Embryo Secret Technique failed to hide from him, let alone this Yinghuai Great Demon?
Nearly Daoist Embryo-level soul thought was indeed no joke.
"Who on earth are you?"
Yinghuai Great Demon looked at the yellow-faced man who instantly broke through his restriction, appearing before him, utterly shocked, unable to help but ask in a deep voice.
"Hahaha, you watch me, even releasing this puppet, yet you don’t know who I am?!"
Gu Yuan heard this and immediately laughed.
"Person of intrigue and concealment!"
As Gu Yuan’s words fell, Yinghuai Great Demon’s heart became startled and uncertain, both fearful and longing, ultimately his eyes turned grim, controlling the Yinhuai Puppet to charge towards Gu Yuan with a roar.
But his true body flashed into retreat.
"Zheng!"
That Yinhuai Puppet’s Dantian erupted with Mana, a Bright Moon anomaly suddenly emerged behind, rising seven hundred feet tall, and within five hundred miles, countless Spiritual Qi swept like mountains and seas.
Amid the countless Spiritual Qi, a silver Sword Pill, resembling a hazy moon shadow, carried an illusory yet extremely sharp sword light, slashing fiercely toward Gu Yuan’s brow.
"It’s actually a Sword Cultivator Puppet, only what a pity..."
The late-stage Golden Core of a Great Sword Cultivator, its Sword Pill like the moon, carrying an aura sufficient to pierce mountains and rivers, came directly.
