Chapter 109: 108 You are already a qualified leader of the Puppet Sect (46K words, please subscribe)

Chapter 109 108. You are already a qualified leader of the Puppet Sect ( words - please subscribe) Luoxia Bamboo Island. The black-armored giant floated in the air, staring at Song Yan in the distance. His fingers covered with black armor moved slightly, and more than 30 beautiful paper figures surrounded him, forming a circular formation. Song Yan's ten fingers also moved, and the ten shadow puppets were as powerful as high-level monsters because of the special skill of "deformed soul". There were only two people, but it was like two armies facing each other. Seeing Gu Huangzi's eyes fall on these shadow puppets, Song Yan smiled and said something that could make people angry to death: "Thanks to the teacher, they were all made in the Shadow Puppet Pavilion. Otherwise, I can't find so many complete monster skins by myself." As soon as the voice fell, he rushed forward suddenly. Ten puppets followed closely behind him, changing unpredictably. The illusions emitted by the "distorted soul" made Song Yan's body form a distorted and strange illusion, which made people dizzy and dazzled. Gu Huangzi raised his hand and pressed it. Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~

The beautiful paper figurines suddenly turned into white silk and shot towards Song Yan. Gu Huangzi's secret technique, coupled with the powerful soul support provided by the "Ice Hell Bracelet", enabled him to control a terrifying number of paper figurines. In an instant, the puppets collided with the paper figurines. Bang bang bang! The first wave seemed to be even, but the balance soon began to tilt, and the puppets were quickly overwhelmed. Gu Huangzi glanced at the distance, clenched his fists, and prepared to attack Song Yan directly. At this moment, Song Yan's speed suddenly increased sharply, and the puppet that was still confronting the paper figurine screamed, turned into a residual image, and was sucked into his mouth in an instant. The shadow puppet of Grandma Fox had been in his body for a long time. With the enhancement of more than ten shadow puppets, the "Hundred-Aspect Demon Body" exploded in an instant, and Song Yan's body expanded rapidly, turning into a demon with many characteristics of advanced demons. Whoosh! Bang! The air exploded, and the circle spread. The demon accelerated again in the air, turning into a black light. The rugged and bumpy thick-skinned giant hand was like a cannonball, hitting the heart of Heijia Gu Huangzi straight. This was too abrupt, and Gu Huangzi had no time to call back the paper man. He suddenly used his two fists as big as wine jars to press down hard, trying to push away the giant hand and use the momentum to distance himself. He had never seen this spell before, and he had no time to think about it. However, at the moment when his two fists were about to reach Song Yan's big hand, Song Yan's hand miraculously lifted up from bottom to top in an extremely weird posture. This is the martial arts skill he used in the martial arts world. This style is a mixture of "Sword Drawing Technique", "Walking on the Waves", "Heavenly King Holding the Pagoda Style" and other skills. Snap! Gu Huangzi's two punches hit nothing. Bang! ! Song Yan's big hand slapped open the mask, and then took another step, fiercely grasped Gu Huangzi's face, and pointed his index finger, and a ray of "special sword energy - Soul-piercing Sword" pierced out at close range.

At such a distance, the Soul-piercing Sword can exert its maximum power. In the array shield, Yu Xuanwei's mouth opened slightly. This one is the overlord of the Three Kingdoms, and the other is the number one wanted criminal. The two are also master and apprentice. When they fight, whether it is magic or scheming, it is far different from the open and aboveboard fighting of Jianmen. She was just deceived by Gu Huangzi, but now she saw Gu Huangzi being deceived again. Gu Huangzi deceived her with his real body, and then attacked with a paper man. Song Yan used a shadow puppet to trick Gu Huangzi, then suddenly swallowed the shadow puppet and attacked with his real body. This was all a cunning trick of "feinting a move, but with murderous intent hidden". Swish!! The "Soul-piercing Sword Qi" nurtured by the blood of the "Night Candle Soul Bug" pierced deeply into Gu Huangzi's forehead. Song Yan was ready to kill Gu Huangzi with a familiar one-shot. He believed that "The Tiger King" was in a high position in the field of soul-imprisoning and transformation. Once it came to the point of fighting between the soul and the spirit, Gu Huangzi would definitely lose even if he had the "Ice Hell Bracelet". As the "Soul-piercing Sword Qi" pierced in, a shrill scream came from Gu Huangzi's forehead, accompanied by a faint wisp of black smoke coming out of Gu Huangzi's seven orifices. Then, something incredible happened. Gu Huangzi clearly heard screams and black smoke coming from his forehead, but he seemed to be completely unaffected. He smiled playfully, and his two iron fists that missed the target suddenly attacked, hitting Song Yan's ribs from both sides. However, at this time, Song Yan, who was in the "Hundred-Aspect Demon Body" state, had such a powerful aura and such a hard body that this blow only made his flesh and blood slightly dented, causing a slight pain. But the power was real, and Song Yan's body was like a lone boat on the raging tide, and was blasted back. But his right hand was still clasped on Gu Huangzi's face. His left hand stabbed again. After being perfected twice, "The Universe in the Sleeve" can be used to "open the gate of heaven with a sword" or "open the gate of heaven with a sword", and the sword and the sword can be used as you wish. This is a move with extremely strong explosive power! The bloody fist instantly landed on the face, smashing Gu Huangzi's head with a bang, and even the helmet was completely broken and flew into the water. The helmet was broken, and Song Yan reached in with his left hand and pulled out the headless corpse. Look again! What kind of body is this? ! The body is covered with white hair, and it smells extremely rancid. The internal organs have formed a mixed mass of lumps, and wisps of blood are emanating from this body. Song Yan has been in the Puppet Sect for a long time, so he naturally knows that the blood corpses of "Blood Corpse Peak" are divided into several grades. The worst is the black-haired corpse, which has black hair all over its body, but the black hair is short and dense, like mold spots.

Then there is the purple-blooded corpse. This kind of blood corpse is extremely powerful. Except for not being able to cast spells, its physical strength can completely tear apart intermediate monsters. Then there is the white-haired corpse. The hair of the white-haired blood corpse is long and sparse, and even has a bit of crystal. In terms of physical strength, it is the best in the early and middle stages of the crimson palace level. Since the body of Gu Huangzi is a white-haired blood corpse, then this is not Gu Huangzi! Gu Huangzi almost never shows up, and the few times he shows up are all in the appearance of this black armor giant. He didn't trust anyone from the beginning, and he was also setting traps for everyone from the beginning. Even if someone breaks through the siege, tries his best, attacks him, and kills him, what he kills is just a blood corpse! Just now, the reason why his "Soul-piercing Sword Qi" failed and brought a scream and a wisp of black smoke was entirely because Gu Huangzi played a full trick and stuffed a paper man into the purple palace of the soulless blood corpse. But a paper man is a paper man, and a blood corpse is a blood corpse. A paper man does not need a body. But a blood corpse has no soul. The paper man died, but the blood corpse will not be affected in any way. Just when he saw the white-haired blood corpse, Song Yan had already figured out Gu Huangzi's "routine". While he was thinking, his hands did not stop at all. He put his left hand on the headless white-haired blood corpse that was caught, and fired another "Sha Kai Tianmen" to quickly finish off the knife. Bang! The headless white-haired blood corpse seemed to be hit by a cannonball at close range, and its entire abdomen was shattered, but the rest of its body was only slightly cracked, and the rancid poisonous water was "dripping" down. Song Yan's eyes turned slightly, as sharp as a knife. Where is Gu Huangzi's real body? Was it among the more than 30 beauties in white, or among the weird twisted and narrow paper figures of red and green men and women behind them? However, no matter where it was, Song Yan knew that he would soon face it. Gu Huangzi would certainly pause for a moment because of astonishment when he blasted out "Sha Kai Tianmen"; but when he used "Sha Kai Tianmen" for the second time, Gu Huangzi must have been ready to attack. Was he passive? Yes! But being passive does not mean being forced. Being passive can also be used to turn the tables! His left hand blasted the broken white-haired blood corpse again and again. Anyone could see that this white-haired blood corpse, which was worse than a rag sack, had no strength to fight again, but Song Yan continued to finish it off. He seemed to be tireless in finishing off the enemy, enjoying it, and seemed to be doing this out of fear. At least Yu Xuanwei, who was stunned in the formation, felt that Song Yan should be afraid.

Because, at this moment, Song Yan's face was full of horror and fear, as if he couldn't believe that "the enemy he had killed with all his trump cards was not Gu Huangzi". Song Yan was surrounded by many paper figures. Song Yan felt that Gu Huangzi was hiding among them. But those paper figures were too scattered and scattered around. No matter which side he chased, there would always be a paper figure that could escape. So, he wanted to let the paper figures get closer. This was his initiative in the passive situation. Fishing was a common thing for him. It happened in a blink of an eye, and it was only a few breaths before and after. The next moment, circles of beauties in white and circles of narrow paper figures of men and women in red and green had swarmed in, with pale faces, strange smiles on their mouths, and mixed voices. Men, women, old and young, were all shouting and screaming, hysterical, laughing, shouting "Song Yan, hahahaha, Song Yan, hehehe, Song Yan, hehehe"! ! The strange voices weaved together, like a group of strange dolls holding hands and circling around Song Yan; or like the sharp gears of a meat grinder, spinning rapidly and heading towards Song Yan. The gloomy atmosphere and the terrifying oppressive feeling turned into an invisible big hand, with ten fingers clasped together, as if to crush the person in the middle to pieces! Song Yan gasped, his demonic head looked around, as if in fear, not knowing where to start. Seeing the paper man getting closer and closer, Song Yan suddenly felt as if his mental endurance had reached the limit, and he screamed in horror, throwing away the bloody corpse in his hand that had already turned into rotten meat. Then It was like changing faces. His eyes were cold for a moment. His sleeves bulged in an instant. From the bulging sleeves, a blood-eyed monster with a raised head and horns flew out, with a camel head, deer horns, rabbit eyes, cow ears, snake neck, clam belly, fish scales, eagle claws, and tiger paws. Red and silver, silver on the outside and red inside, soon turned into a silver-armored demon dragon with blood smoke billowing. The demon dragon flew out from Song Yan's sleeve with a "whoosh", and like a magic trick, Song Yan also disappeared, and merged with the demon dragon. The demon dragon swung its tail and leaped across the void, and the Misty Sea really became a vast sea, with waves rising dozens of feet, and a slap fell heavily on Luoxia Bamboo Island. However, the demon dragon composed of the sword and evil spirits had already arrived at the farthest paper man. It was a strange paper man with a long and narrow green face and rouge on his cheeks. Boom! ! The sword evil demon dragon directly passed through the strange paper man, swallowed by the evil spirit, and the sword spirit was useless. At the first sight, the paper man was shattered. The demon dragon continued to move forward, lingering rapidly, and while circling, the circle of paper men who gathered and rushed over were completely crushed to pieces. It was like a piece of white paper torn into pieces, thrown up, and scattered into the wind, fluttering everywhere, like a butterfly with its wings broken in a hurricane. The demon dragon circled once and cleared the battlefield.

After the battlefield was cleared, the dragon's eyes instantly fell on the last "thing". It was a thin man. Very thin, very thin, very thin. So thin that "skin and bones" could not be described. But the thin man's eyes were cunning and sly, and he wore a bracelet on his stick-like arm. The dragon's eyes met the thin man's eyes. After confirming the eyes, this was the right person. This was Gu Huangzi's true body. He was actually hiding in a narrow and strange green-clothed woman's paper man! Song Yan recalled the scene when he first met Gu Huangzi at Paper Man Peak. He stepped over the threshold carefully and walked through an aisle that looked like a mourning hall. On both sides of the aisle were twisted and tall strange paper men, men and women, with pale faces, rouge, and strange smiles on their lips. Those paper men were all as tall as the ceiling, and they hunched over and overlooked the pedestrians in the aisle. No one would have thought that Gu Huangzi would hide in this corridor! ! Who would have thought? And until this moment, Gu Huangzi's expression was still calm. The blood in his body was flowing, and his flesh and blood suddenly filled up in the air, expanding in circles, turning into thick leather armor like an old crocodile. But before this heavy armor was re-formed, the demon dragon had already swung its tail in front of him. The soul-imprisoning sword energy and the soul-piercing sword energy were released in seconds! Gu Huangzi paused and stopped the original action of turning into armor. Chi Chi Chi Chi, rustling. The silver-armored blood smoke demon dragon dissipated and turned into Song Yan's appearance. Snap! Song Yan's big hand landed steadily on Gu Huangzi's forehead. The tiger stripes of the tiger king quickly crawled and grabbed the soul between Gu Huangzi's eyebrows. However, from the soul space between Gu Huangzi's eyebrows, souls suddenly ran out one after another, and these souls rushed back to Song Yan. Song Yan controlled the king tiger to imprison them one by one. Seeing that the victory or defeat had been decided, Song Yan suddenly felt extremely dangerous at this moment. He suddenly withdrew from the soul world and looked carefully, but saw that Gu Huangzi's pupils were still staring at him, and he didn't know when he held a dagger with a golden blade in his palm. The dagger "whoosh" stabbed Song Yan's abdomen fiercely. Obviously, Gu Huangzi was controlled by the king tiger, how could he control his body to attack? Song Yan's doubts flashed in his mind, and his palm moved suddenly.

The door of the sky was opened, and it was fired in seconds! Boom! Gu Huangzi's armor was shattered, and his body was shattered, revealing a skeleton. On the shattered flesh, the soul was also annihilated, but on the bones, there was still a soul! That is Gu Huangzi's true soul. "Boy, I lost. I have used up all my trump cards. The heavily armored white-haired blood corpse pretending to be my real body is my first trump card. The many paper figures controlled by the soul strengthened by the Ice Hell Bracelet are my second trump card. Hidden in the least conspicuous paper figure is my third trump card. My first palace blood is very ordinary, which can enhance the strength of flesh and blood. So even though my flesh and blood seem to be withered, they are actually full of blood and qi, can recover quickly, and form a demon-like heavy armor. This is nothing. My second palace blood is relatively good, and the soul is hidden in the bones. If the bones are not destroyed, the body will not be destroyed. I connected my flesh to the Ice Hell Bracelet, but the real soul is hidden in the bones. You come to attack me, if you attack the soul, I can sneak attack you from the outside. This is my last trump card." The thoughts of the soul are transmitted very quickly. After saying this, Gu Huangzi's soul said, "Boy, I am really convinced. How about this, I will work like a cow and a horse for you, I will be your subordinate, you give me a way out, don't turn me into a ghost. Anyway, I have already given you the Ice Hell Bracelet and other things, and you know all my secrets. With your means, isn't it easy to control me?" Song Yan's soul said, "Teacher, you are already in my palm, and you will turn into a ghost in the next moment. Tell me, why should I take risks?" As he spoke, the whole world seemed to press the slow button, two souls stood in the air, and a terrifying tiger pattern grabbed Gu Huangzi on the opposite side like a tentacle. Even though the souls talked very fast, the speed of the tiger pattern was just as fast. In the distance, Gu Huangzi's expression seemed to change several times, and finally he let out a long sigh. Following that, a muffled groan came. His soul began to break, and cracks appeared. Song Yan was stunned. A strong man at the level of the Crimson Palace can destroy his soul. But he never thought that Gu Huangzi would do this.

"Forget it, kid, I should have known this would be the outcome. Back then, I rebelled against my master, betrayed my master and destroyed my ancestors, and that old immortal didn't want to fall into my hands, so he destroyed himself. Now it's my turn." "You" "You are already a qualified leader of the Puppet Sect." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." As soon as he finished speaking, the tiger came and entangled with him, and Gu Huangzi's broken soul exploded instantly, with stars.
