Chapter 1515
"After being ambushed by those ghosts, although I moved fast enough, the puppets I collected in advance are less than a thousand."
"My situation is even worse. Not only were several Ghost Kings heavily injured by the self-destruction of the puppets, but the remaining Yin soldiers were also wiped out by the wind-attribute divine ability displayed by Brother Liuzu." The white-haired beautiful woman sighed slightly.
"Why does Fellow Daoist Lan have to say such things! Although we agreed at the beginning that you only needed to refine eight thousand ghost soldiers. But the pure Yin Qi you took from me is far more than this amount. You should have refined more Yin-Armored Profound Ghosts. Now that it has reached this situation, it is not the time to cherish one's own broom." Liuzu's compound eyes flashed with strange light, and he said gloomily.
Upon hearing this, the white-haired beautiful woman was startled, and an awkward look appeared on her face.
"I didn't expect Brother Liuzu to know about this too. Not bad, in order to be prepared for any eventuality, I did refine five hundred elite ghost soldiers; although the number is not large, their individual strength is a cut above ordinary Yin-Armored Profound Ghosts."
"Good, with the remaining puppets and these hundreds of ghost soldiers to assist, even if there are a few dangerous places left on the remaining short journey, passing through them will definitely not be a problem. I know that you few Fellow Daoists may have other plans, but as long as we get the Styx Divine Milk, we can each go our separate ways. How you want to act, I will not ask about in the slightest, but before arriving at the destination, you had best not be distracted by other matters and play any small tricks. Otherwise, don't blame me for not leaving any face." Liuzu swept his gaze across the faces of Mu Qing and the three, filled with a hint of threat.
The white-haired beautiful woman's expression stirred, Mu Qing was expressionless, and the two blood-robed figures' eyes flashed with blood light as they looked at each other. None of them showed any reaction, as if they had never heard Liuzu's words just now.
Liuzu was not surprised by the performance of the few, waved one hand, and said the word "Set off."
He immediately turned into a mass of black light and flew in the original direction of travel.
More than a dozen high-tier demonic beasts below immediately drove their escape lights and followed.
Seeing this, the two blood-robed figures flicked their four sleeves, and dense black dots flew out from their cuffs. The moment they landed, they burst into lights of various colors, transforming into puppets of different styles.
These puppets were clearly carefully preserved by the two blood-robed figures!
Not only were they all as complete as new, but most of them were also exceptionally exquisite.
At this time, the white-haired beautiful woman also raised her hand, flew out a black leather bag the size of a palm, and urged it with a magic technique.
As this leather bag spun in the air, the bag mouth turned upside down, and a gust of pitch-black Yin wind sprayed out from inside.
Amidst the flying sand and stones, teams of ghost soldiers wearing black armor emerged.
The style of these ghost soldiers' battle armor was not much different from the previous Yin-Armored Profound Ghosts, only they looked a bit more sturdy and thick, and the body size of these ghost soldiers was also a head taller than ordinary Profound Ghosts. Looking from afar, each one was exceptionally ferocious!
"Go!"
Following the beautiful woman's order, surrounded by hundreds of ghost soldiers, she turned into a sheet of black mist and rolled in pursuit of Liuzu. Yuan Yao and Yan Li could only leave Han Li's side and follow with a scalp-numbing feeling.
And the puppet army also flew into the air, wrapped in various spiritual lights, flying at low altitude.
The Purple Blood Puppet flew at the very front of all the puppets, with the two blood-robed figures still standing steadily on its shoulders.
Seeing this, Mu Qing swept a glance at Han Li indifferently, stepped on the golden flower under her feet without a word, and shot out as an escape light.
"Fellow Daoist Han, let's follow!"
Han Li glanced and saw Jin Ling saying to him with a smile that was not a smile, looking like she wanted to advance and retreat with him.
Han Li remained calm, nodded, and with green light rising all over his body, he turned into a green rainbow and went out.
And the Golden Ape let out a low laugh and followed closely as a golden light...
Several days later, deep in the Styx land, in front of a stone cave in a gray-white mountain range. Several ghosts of different forms stood quietly there.
Some of these ghosts were wrapped in a layer of green smoke, some were just faint white shadows, and others were giant skeletons several zhang tall...
The white-robed ghost woman who had once fought Han Li but abandoned the fight and left was shockingly among them.
But each of them was either missing hands or feet, or their aura was extremely weak.
Even that ghost woman who made Han Li feel very tricky had one arm and a section of the sleeve on that strange white robe missing, having turned into a one-armed person.
These ghosts were all in a miserable state, and in the middle of these ghosts, there was an existence wearing blood-red battle armor and a face mask.
It was shockingly a member of the Ephemera race's blood-armored puppets.
From the outside, this puppet was no different from ordinary blood-armored puppets, but the gazes of the surrounding ghosts toward this puppet carried a hint of awe, and they were actually somewhat afraid.
This puppet stood in front of so many high-tier ghosts, its figure motionless, looking at the exceptionally deep cave entrance in front of it, its eyes flickering with faint green light.
I don't know how long it had been, when a long sigh came from deep in the cave, and then an old voice drifted out from inside:
"As an envoy of the Ephemera race, have you not found the wrong person by coming to find this old man?"
Upon hearing these words, the ghosts in front of the cave entrance immediately became solemn, the blood-armored puppet's eyes flashed with spiritual light, and it also opened its mouth:
"Senior, I had no choice but to do this. The power of the people who broke into the holy land this time is far beyond what we juniors imagined. There are actually four or five existences the same as our Heaven-Ephemera level. Except for me, the puppet incarnations of the others have all been destroyed, even though I have already sent a request for help. But the next time the holy land can be opened at the earliest is half a year away. In such a long time, I am afraid these people would have long since escaped. I hope Senior will look at the past friendship with our race and help us once!" The blood-armored puppet bowed and was exceptionally respectful.
"Hmph, this old man had an agreement with your Ephemera race back then, just to borrow your holy land to survive for some time. But it is not to rely on the Ephemera race. The reward that should be paid, this old man already paid in full back then. This time entering the Styx land, you asked me to gather high-tier ghosts to assist, and I reluctantly agreed. Now you are asking me to personally take action to help you destroy the enemy; don't you think you are pushing your luck too far?" The old voice snorted coldly, making the entire cave buzz, appearing extremely dissatisfied.
"Senior Jiang, I do not know what agreement you had with our race, but with your old divine abilities, dealing with these few people is just a matter of lifting a finger. If Senior truly feels it is inconvenient to take action, if you are willing to lend the Five-Dragon Guillotine to me for use, it would be the same." The puppet's eyes turned a few times, and it actually said this.
"The Five-Dragon Guillotine is one of the top treasures in this old man's hands; why should I lend it to you? Back then, in order to enter the Styx land, I paid a sufficient price to several elders in your race." The old man seemed to recall some unhappy past events, and his voice turned cold.
The blood-armored puppet's heart jumped abruptly. After a moment of hesitation, it reached out to its body and took out a pitch-black small bottle from the blood armor.
It was the size of a thumb, but exceptionally exquisite.
"Before I set off, the elders in the race bestowed a small bottle of 'Heavenly Sunflower Essence.' I am willing to use this item to exchange for Senior taking action once." The blood-armored puppet carefully held the small bottle and said loudly.
"Heavenly Sunflower Essence!" The old voice froze, appearing somewhat surprised!
"This item can only be formed once every ten-plus thousand years, and not many can be found in the entire Spirit Realm; it can be considered a rare treasure." As soon as the puppet sensed the other party's hesitation, its heart settled down a lot, and it said clearly.
With a "whoosh," a mass of black mist rolled out from the cave, swept the small bottle from the puppet, and brought it back into the cave.
The blood-armored puppet had no intention of stopping it at all!
"Not bad, it is indeed Heavenly Sunflower Essence. It seems those old guys in your race have been calculating against me for a long time." A moment later, the old voice drifted out again, but the voice had a hint of joy.
"Then Senior has agreed!" The blood-armored puppet was overjoyed.
"I have agreed, but I have an agreement with the elders of your race. I need to suppress the Yin Qi backlash of this space for your Ephemera race. During this period, the source of Yin Qi here is not very stable. It is impossible for me to leave this place. You should take my Five-Dragon Guillotine and make a trip!" The old voice hesitated slightly before saying so.
"Thank you, Senior! With the Five-Dragon Guillotine in hand! I alone can rival five Heaven-Ephemera level existences. Destroying those few people will be more than enough." The blood-armored puppet said with great joy.
"Since you have agreed, receive the treasure!"
The person in the cave was quite straightforward. After a low shout, a silver light shot out from inside, flashed, and arrived in front of the blood-armored puppet, stopping at low altitude.
The blood-armored puppet hurriedly focused its gaze.
It saw a silver-white guillotine that looked ordinary floating there; apart from being as bright as a mirror on the surface, it could not see any peculiarity at all.
"Senior, this... is this really the Five-Dragon Guillotine?" The blood-armored puppet raised its hand to take the guillotine, observed it carefully again, and a flash of surprise and doubt crossed its eyes.
"Hehe! Why, are you afraid this old man is fooling you?" The old voice let out a cold laugh.
"I dare not, it's just that this guillotine..." The blood-armored puppet's heart chilled, and it hurriedly wanted to explain. But at this moment, the guillotine in its hand trembled, and suddenly, with a shake of its five fingers, it flew out of its hand.
After this treasure circled in the air, silver light erupted, and then after several clear dragon roars, five giant flood dragon phantoms slowly emerged above the guillotine, each of a different color, baring fangs and brandishing claws, with an exceptionally shocking momentum.
"The Five-Dragon Guillotine is a treasure refined from the corpses and spirits of five great-ability evil flood dragons I killed when I was traveling in other continents back then. As soon as it was refined, it climbed onto the Chaos Myriad Spirit Ranking, and it is also a treasure ranked at the forefront of Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures." The old voice said proudly.
"I have let Senior see a joke! Once I eliminate those outsiders, I will immediately return this treasure to its original owner!"
Seeing this strange phenomenon of the guillotine, the blood-armored puppet was overjoyed and, without any more doubt, hurriedly pinched a magic seal.
Immediately, the guillotine turned into a silver rainbow and submerged into its cuff.
