There were a total of eight such puppets. They were completely different from ordinary puppets. They wore large black robes and looked no different from living humans. They were made of flesh and blood. However, there was no expression in their eyes. Moreover, one could not sense the slightest bit of life from these eight puppets.
Their cultivation base was at the Great Perfection Immortal Venerable realm. These eight puppets were the true foundation of the entire Dark Prison. Unlike ordinary puppets, they were living puppets.
A Living Puppet, as the name suggested, was a puppet refined from a living person. A puppet refined in this way not only retained the puppet's powerful physical strength and fearless fighting style, but it also retained the puppet's strength and various Celestial Skills when it was alive.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the combat strength of living puppets was at least three times stronger than ordinary puppets, and this was only the most conservative estimate.
However, because the refining method of living puppets was too cruel, it had been listed as a forbidden technique a long time ago. This was personally decided by the Will Of The Heavenly Way because he felt that living puppets were too cruel.
However, it was the Will of the Heavenly Dao that had personally refined these eight living puppets, allowing them to become the true foundation of the Black Prison and help Heartcliff guard the Black Prison.
Wasn't this a bit ironic? On one hand, living puppets were listed as a forbidden art. On the other hand, he had personally created eight living puppets. This was the will of the Seventh Barren's Heavenly Path.
As for where these eight living puppets came from, it was even simpler. Cultivators like them could be found anywhere in the Dark Prison. These eight puppets were obviously refined from the prisoners in the Dark Prison.
Looking at the eight living puppets in front of him, a faint killing intent flickered in Yan Xin's eyes.
Shortly after the eight puppets appeared, a bright light flashed and Xiao Chen and the others successfully arrived at the third floor.
Compared to the first and second floor, the layout of the third floor was much simpler. It was a circular plaza with eight prison cells around it.
There were no obstructions. It could be said that no matter where one was, the entire third floor could be seen at a glance. One could also see the entire floor thoroughly.
Of course, this design was also to make it easier to guard. After all, the prisoners on the third floor weren't ordinary people.
When Xiao Chen and the others appeared, Yan Xin stood in front of them with the eight living puppets. When he saw Li Qiu, Yan Xin said coldly. "Li Qiu, you traitor, how dare you walk into the trap? Not bad. It just so happens that I have a lot of empty cells on the third floor. They are very suitable for you."
Yan Xin said coldly. Upon hearing Yan Xin's words, Li Qiu glanced at the eight living puppets beside him with a trace of ridicule in his eyes.
"Hmph. You call yourself a Saint, but you are secretly doing some shady things. If I remember correctly, the living puppets have long been listed as a forbidden technique by the Seventh Wilderness. No one is allowed to practice it. But now, there are eight living puppets in the dark prison. What a joke."
Yan Xing said one thing but said another behind Li Qiu's back. When he heard Li Qiu's words, Yan Xing didn't get angry. He just said indifferently.
"In order to achieve anything, someone has to pay the price. These eight living puppets have committed grave sins when they were alive. Now that they have been refined into living puppets, it can be considered as making up for the sins they have committed. This is the Heavenly Dao's forgiveness for them."
How cruel was the refining of living puppets? Just think about it. A person had to be refined into a living puppet while retaining his or her consciousness.
The pain during this process was definitely not something an ordinary person could accept. It could be said that the entire process was torture and cruelty. It was a feeling that was worse than death.
"Making up for the sins they have committed when they were alive? Hmph. You people from the Seventh Wilderness like to say that black is white. You're just a bunch of despicable people. "Li Qiu laughed disdainfully when he heard Yan Xing's words.
In the eyes of everyone, the Seventh Wilderness Will Of The Heavenly Way and many experts were the protectors of the Seventh Wilderness. They were righteous. But what was the truth?
They didn't dare to say that the Seventh Wilderness Will Of The Heavenly Way was definitely evil. But one thing was for sure. The Will Of The Heavenly Way was definitely not as clean as he appeared to be.
Thinking about it, who in this world was a true Saint? Since there were stains on his or her record, why did he or she have to portray himself as a pure Saint?
It wasn't terrible to make mistakes, and it didn't matter if there were stains on his or her record. But if he or she had to portray himself as a perfect Saint, it was as disgusting as a whore trying to establish a monument to her chastity.
Facing Li Qiu's points, the killing intent in Yan Xin's eyes intensified. He immediately shouted coldly. "Cut the crap. Since you're here, stay. My Dark Prison is very good at dealing with traitors. Li Qiu, you should have a taste of it."
Having said that, the eight living puppets beside Yan Xin moved simultaneously. Seeing this, the other Immortal Sovereigns of the Seventh Realm also moved and engaged in a fierce battle with the eight living puppets.
Living puppets were almost no different from living humans in a battle. Compared to ordinary puppets, the combat strength of living puppets was obviously stronger.
Moreover, the eight living puppets were all at the Perfected Celestial Venerable Realm. Therefore, some of the Celestial Venerables from the Seventh Realm were in a disadvantageous position after just one exchange.
Although they didn't have intelligence, they could still use the Martial Techniques and Immortal Techniques that they had cultivated when they were alive. At the same time, they retained the combat awareness and habits that they had when they were alive. They were indeed much stronger than ordinary puppets.
Without wasting any time, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle. Upon seeing this, Li Qiu transmitted his voice to Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao, "Leave this to us. Both of you go and find Wine Daoist as soon as possible."
Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao couldn't intervene in the battle here. After all, they were already at the Perfected Immortal Sovereign Realm. No matter how talented Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao were, their cultivation base was still there. They weren't qualified to intervene in a battle of this level.
Upon hearing Li Qiu's words, Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao knew that they didn't have the ability to participate in a battle of this level. Therefore, they didn't waste any time and immediately fled to the surrounding cells, leaving Li Qiu and Ye Xiao alone.
Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao were in charge of rescuing people, while Li Qiu and Ye Xiao were in charge of delaying Yan Xin. Seeing Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao's actions, Yan Xin didn't stop them. He calmly retracted his gaze and looked at Li Qiu and Gu Feng again.
He sneered and said, "Li Qiu, do you really think you can rescue people from my Dark Prison?"
