Chapter 1613: What Is This Thing?

In the Ghost King's underground palace, Dong Rui had truly seen a strange creature that gathered all these characteristics—a Heavenly Demon!

The appearance of Heavenly Demons was strange and varied; after all, "Heavenly Demon" was just a general term, and the inhabitants of the God Realm all had very individual looks.

The Ghost King's underground palace, or rather the cave dwelling of True Person Minghui, had many Heavenly Demon remains, most of which were discarded at will in the landfill, but there were still a few as collectibles, fixed in glowing transparent pillars.

Dong Rui remembered very clearly that one of the Heavenly Demon remains possessed all the above characteristics.

It was female.

There was also a tunnel dug through inside the pillar, one end connected to this female Heavenly Demon, and one end connected to the outside world.

He had even crawled into this tunnel himself to take a look, and the impression was very deep.

So, was Cao Wendao simulating the appearance of a Heavenly Demon to create a demon puppet? Good, good perverted! When he drove the demon puppet, wasn't it the same as driving a Heavenly Demon/God?

Could the Heavenly Palace allow him to play like this?

Cao Wendao didn't care what he thought, directly ordering the demon puppet: "Grab him!"

As long as he caught Wei Yishan, this terrible night could still end satisfactorily.

However, the gray robe didn't bring Dong Rui back, and both Dong Rui and Cao Wendao had a vague thought in their hearts: "Want to eat, bring it here!"

This wasn't even language, just a thought, but both could receive it clearly.

Dong Rui knew this was Cao Wendao's main demon puppet expressing itself.

Demon puppets and their masters generally communicate through thoughts, but they don't express complete sentences, but rather express their state or demands, such as hungry, injured, pain, etc.

But Dong Rui could actually receive the expression of the enemy's demon puppet, which was equivalent to this monster talking to him!

The gray robe didn't need Dong Rui's consent, grabbed the package on his back, and swallowed it in one gulp.

This action was impatient.

Clearly, the gray robe determined that the things inside the backpack were particularly delicious, making it ignore its master's order to eat it into its belly first.

Its mask opened on its own, and there were no eyes or nose on its face, only an inward-sunken, abyss-like big mouth, and this mouth was opened vertically, with a circle of fine serrated teeth around it.

Dong Rui's things in the backpack were the size of a small watermelon. Humans couldn't swallow them, but the gray robe looked easy, swallowing the package and the things inside in one gulp.

He didn't know how such a big piece of food slid into its belly through the esophagus.

Dong Rui couldn't help but curse: "Damn!"

His egg, this ghost thing ate his egg! Taking advantage of the gray robe's head-tilting time, he touched a nail tube from his robe and pressed the mechanism hard.

Damn it, in the end, he still had to do it himself!

The two sides were too close, and the nail tube was fired almost against the gray robe. With a "clack-clack" sound, dozens of steel nails hit the gray robe.

This was a masterpiece of the Songyang Mansion. Although not as exaggerated as the "Rain of Pears" needle, every steel nail had a powerful knock-back effect. The gray robe was caught off guard and was knocked back more than a yard.

Then, these steel nails exploded.

Under the deployment of Songyang Mansion, these steel nails would explode two breaths after hitting the enemy. Dong Rui knew his fist and foot skills were average, so he specifically ordered this nail tube from Songyang Mansion for self-defense, and requested the knock-back effect to be as strong as possible, with the explosion power being secondary.

Pulling away from the enemy, he could slip away.

Then there were two "swoosh" sounds, and the bat demon puppet turned into an arrow and rushed toward Cao Wendao.

The demon puppets in the forest were cleared out, and the gray robe went to grab Dong Rui again, so Cao Wendao became a lonely man, the easiest target to attack in the whole field.

Demon puppets were hard to fight, so one could attack the Demon Puppeteer.

Seizing this opportunity, the Ghost Ape also jumped over, grabbing Dong Rui and protecting him in its arms.

It grabbed the Purple Gold Copper Rod with its left palm, and smashed it at the enemy's head! With a crisp "clang," it hit squarely.

This set of movements was smooth and flowing, smashing the gray robe's head to pieces.

Dong Rui didn't care about anything else, took out a medicine bottle from his robe, bit the stopper open with his mouth, and poured half a bottle down his throat.

After taking the medicine, Dong Rui felt refreshed, and even the pain was reduced by half. This was a miraculous medicine for pain relief; the bone injury had to be treated after returning to Yongquan Villa.

He didn't forget to glance at the gray robe on the ground.

It had first eaten the explosion of the Songyang Mansion's steel nails, and then was smashed to pieces by the Ghost Ape, but there wasn't a drop of blood on the scene, instead fragments scattered all over the ground.

Not corpse remains or flesh, but rather fragments like broken ceramics or clay sculptures.

The gray robe's arm was blown into a big hole, revealing dark copper-colored bones.

It seemed not to know pain, propped itself up on the ground, and stood up again.

The fragments on the ground, as if guided, flew toward the main body, completing the injury. That posture was like iron filings rushing toward a strong magnet.

In just two breaths, the gray robe was as complete as before, not even missing a wrinkle on its clothes.

This scene was extremely eerie in the eyes of others, but Dong Rui was lost in thought: "Not a flesh-and-blood body!"

Cao Wendao's main demon puppet was actually not a flesh-and-blood body! How should this be understood? But then again, only Demon Puppeteers would choose demon beasts and living things as the base, while others refining puppets would mostly choose non-living bodies, such as metal, embryo soil, and spiritual wood.

Then, to defeat this kind of puppet, one had to find where its heart core was.

But why did Cao Wendao want to do this? He was clearly best at insect puppets.

Dong Rui knew very well that excellent Demon Puppeteers should guide according to the situation when refining works, striving to exert the greatest advantages of the works themselves.

In other words, the gray robe's current appearance was the characteristic that Cao Wendao thought could exert the greatest power.

It was too vivid.

But he also mentioned that the base of this main demon puppet was a living thing brought out of the Howling Forest by the Profound Lu Ghost King.

Cao Wendao said this with pride, not like faking it.

That place was first polluted by the bones of Heavenly Gods, and then encountered the evil energy gushing out from geological changes. What living thing could remain? Was it some kind of wood monster?

The gray robe spat out vines and injured the bat demon puppet just now. Can it be reverse-inferred that its true body is actually a plant? Dong Rui was anxious to explore the reason because the origin of a demon puppet must determine its characteristics and attack method. If he didn't figure out the true face of this thing, it would be hard to deal with it.

Seeing the master take the medicine, the Ghost Ape swung its big stick and went to attack the gray robe again.

But the gray robe dodged twice, and with a "bare-handed entry into white blade," caught the Purple Gold Copper Rod smashing down from above.

The Ghost Ape's strength had been strengthened and adjusted by Dong Rui many times. Compared to when it first met He Lingchuan four or five years ago, it had increased by more than two or three times? Even a giant rock would be smashed into powder by it.

But the gray robe was not only quickly familiarizing itself with its body method and stick method, but even took these tens of thousands of pounds of force head-on without fear.

Its own strength and speed were truly astonishing. ===== CHAPTER 1614 =====
