Seeing the Black Evil Puppet’s rampant slaughter among the crowd, all the disciples felt an unparalleled terror.
Huang Liang did not hesitate to flee towards the rear, and in the blink of an eye, he had withdrawn from the inner part of the gorge.
The Jade Cauldron Sect disciples who followed Huang Liang, upon seeing his actions, also fled en masse, following his lead.
"Bastards, no one is allowed to retreat!"
Xu Lianyu shouted urgently upon witnessing this scene, but the disciples paid no heed to her command, and in the blink of an eye, they had vanished without a trace.
Initially, thanks to the Killing Formation, the Jade Cauldron Sect disciples had the upper hand, but the sudden appearance of the Black Evil Puppet put the Jade Cauldron Sect at a disadvantage again.
At this moment, the remaining Jade Cauldron Sect disciples’ complexions were pale, their hearts filled with fear. They knew all too well that if the battle continued, death was virtually certain. Although the thought of retreat was in their minds, the sight of Lin Chen holding the front line made it impossible for them to easily withdraw. Fınd the newest release on novel-fire.ɴet
After all, deserting in the face of the enemy was not the behavior expected of Jade Cauldron Sect disciples, and they could not overcome this hurdle within their hearts.
"Without the Killing Formation, I’d like to see what strength you can muster to fight me!"
Seeing Lin Chen’s formation in disarray, Li Chu immediately sneered, then his Magic Technique changed, directing the Black Evil Puppet to charge straight for Lin Chen.
"Little Junior Brother, be careful, it’s targeting you."
Xu Lianyu, seeing the Black Evil Puppet charging towards Lin Chen, immediately changed expression and urgently warned him.
Xu Lianyu was trapped by Yin Sha Qi and couldn’t break free to assist Lin Chen. Moreover, the Black Evil Puppet moved incredibly fast. Wang Yilin’s face also showed an expression of urgency.
In the blink of an eye, the Black Evil Puppet had reached Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was not one to fear death, and his practiced Primordial Transformation Art grew stronger against stronger enemies. The path Lin Chen chose was to grow stronger through battle.
Faced with the charging Black Evil Puppet, Lin Chen did not hesitate to mobilize his full Spiritual Power. A flame palm appeared in his hand, and he immediately struck out with force.
"Little Junior Brother, no, the Black Evil Puppet’s Martial Force has already surpassed the Spirit Gathering Realm; you cannot confront it head-on,"
Xu Lianyu shouted upon seeing this.
"Truly seeking death. Merely at the Sixth Layer Spirit Gathering Realm and you dare to clash with the Black Evil Puppet. Lin Chen, it looks like your path as a heavenly pride ends today. Remember to steer clear of me in your next life,"
Li Chu’s mouth curved into a smile, as he already considered Lin Chen a dead man.
Seeing Lin Chen’s actions, Mu Qingxue also sighed, feeling that Lin Chen was far too overconfident.
At the moment of collision with the Black Evil Puppet, Lin Chen was shaken by the massive force and immediately fresh blood sprayed from his mouth. At the same time, the intense, dense Yin Sha Qi from the Black Evil Puppet began to invade Lin Chen’s body, quickly eroding his Spirit Sea.
"No matter how exceptional your talents are, this Yin Sha Qi is enough to ruin your foundation and take your life. Even we Demon Cultivators find it difficult to mobilize Spiritual Power under the influence of Yin Sha Qi, let alone you."
Li Chu’s face bore a sinister smile, reassured that Lin Chen was being corroded and wrapped by the Yin Sha Qi released by the Black Evil Puppet, deeming Lin Chen powerless to reverse his fate.
As the Yin Sha Qi entered Lin Chen’s body, the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron within him trembled, emitting a buzzing sound. Lin Chen then felt an intense heat emanating from the cauldron, infusing his entire body with power in an instant.
In that moment, Lin Chen felt the Yin Sha Qi within his body rapidly refined by the Primordial Myriad Transformation Cauldron, nourishing his limbs and bones.
"This Yin Sha Qi has actually become nourishment within my body."
Feeling the changes within, Lin Chen smiled faintly and immediately circulated the Primordial Transformation Art, subsequently breaking through to the Seventh Layer of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
Lin Chen’s aura erupted in an instant, and seeing that he was not only unharmed by the Yin Sha Qi but had also broken through his cultivation, Zhao Ye and Li Chu in the distance dramatically changed color, filled with indignation.
Remembering Lin Chen’s refinement of the Yin Sha Qi at the swamp, and now witnessing his immunity to the Black Evil Puppet’s influence, they suddenly realized something.
"Kill him for me! He must die today!"
Seeing Lin Chen grow stronger, Li Chu roared and controlled the Black Evil Puppet to press on towards Lin Chen.
Facing the Black Evil Puppet, Lin Chen’s expression turned serious, contemplating what method to use to battle it, when he felt the Rusty Dagger that had been refined in the flames within the Myriad Transformation Cauldron beginning to vibrate slightly, transforming into a streak of light thrusting out in an instant.
As if sensing it, Lin Chen pointed towards the Black Evil Puppet, directing the Rusty Dagger to pierce straight at it.
All witnessed a flash of light before the Black Evil Puppet collapsed to the ground. The Yin Sha Bead that Li Chu was manipulating also shattered and countless strands of Yin Sha Qi that had been within the Black Evil Puppet dispersed into the world. Lin Chen quickly mobilized his Spiritual Power to devour all the Yin Sha Qi.
"This is impossible, how could you have destroyed my Black Evil Puppet?"
Seeing that Lin Chen had shattered the Black Evil Puppet with a single strike, Li Chu refused to believe that Lin Chen possessed such capability, but the undeniable reality left him no choice but to believe.
"You’re welcome to see for yourself."
With a cold smile on his lips, Lin Chen leapt into action, flying straight towards Li Chu, ready to settle the score with him.
Although the power of the Rusty Dagger in his body had only shown itself once before lapsing back into quiescence within the Myriad Transformation Cauldron, Lin Chen, now at the Seventh Layer of the Spirit Gathering Realm, was confident enough to fight against Li Chu and the others.
