At this time, the Butterfly Fairy with a white veil covering her face was like a dancing butterfly, dodging the violent magical power of the burly True Spirit Body. A three-inch-long blood-red light shot out in all directions.
Although the Butterfly Fairy was at a disadvantage at this time, once the burly True Spirit Body revealed a flaw, the three-inch-long blood-red light could always take the opportunity to stab and alleviate the Butterfly Fairy's predicament.
The three-inch-long streak of crimson light struck fear into the puppet's heart. There was a needle-like wound on its left arm, and it was clear that the giant puppet had suffered from this streak of crimson light before. Within a three-inch radius of the needle-like wound, its arm had shriveled up, as if the wound had devoured all of the surrounding flesh and blood essence.
However, the Butterfly Fairy was not having a good time. The puppet looked clumsy, but it was actually very agile. Moreover, the magical powers and spells it cast were unusually powerful. Although the Butterfly Fairy could still dodge until now, it was because she had cast the secret magical power inherited from Daoist Chan. However, this kind of magical power consumed a cultivator's True Essence. It was obviously not a long-term solution. However, the puppet in front of her did not seem to be exhausted at all.
… …
Chu Fanyun no longer had the strength to resist the opponent in front of him!
The middle-aged female cultivator was tall and plump, with a fierce face. Although she was a woman, she always gave people a fierce feeling. In the process of fighting with Chu Fanyun, she condensed the Starry Sky Essence Qi into a crystal hammer and smashed Chu Fanyun into a sorry state. She was in line with the legendary Daoist Hu of the Seventh Patriarch who opened the sky.
Chu Fanyun did not expect to meet this person!
Although Chu Fanyun had the three remains of the Green Sea Snakes left by Jiao Daoren, his cultivation temporarily reached the Consummation of the First Realm of True Spirit after wearing them.
However, this elevated cultivation was not his own strength. Compared with Long Huai, Lu Ping, Xiang Laozu, and the Butterfly Fairy, who had reached the Consummation of the First Realm by their own strength, he was still inferior. At this time, he encountered the Real Body Puppet of Taoist Hu, who used all kinds of magical powers to fight head-on. However, Chu Fanyun did not have the magical power or secret skill to dodge like the Butterfly Fairy, so he could only brace himself to fight. After a few rounds, Chu Fanyun was exhausted. He was smashed away by Taoist Hu's hammer and was dying.
… …
Lu Ping was famous for his swordsmanship, but the characteristics of swordsmanship were more agile and unpredictable. In terms of pure swordsmanship talent, Lu Ping was actually not as good as Xiao Baiyu.
However, Lu Ping's Real Essence was vigorous, thick, and continuous, which made his swordsmanship have a characteristic of one force to defeat ten. After the combination of the two, although his swordsmanship was not as varied as Xiao Baiyu's, he used more of his swordsmanship to suppress others.
However, this time, in the face of this three-inch spirit light that was condensed from the starry sky's Yuan Qi through his swordsmanship, Lu Ping had no choice but to use all his skills to display the variations of his swordsmanship to the extreme, trying his best to trap this spirit light within the sword light of the Sword of True Spirit.
Aside from his swordsmanship, Lu Ping had also displayed all the various original swordsmanship that he had condensed over the years after he became a true spirit, just to block this three-inch spirit light for a moment and create an opportunity for Xiao Baiyu and Mi Xuance to besiege the puppet created by Taoist Chan's real body on the other side.
Back then, Taoist Chan had dominated the world with the Blood Dissolving Needle, and most of his swordsmanship was related to it. Now that Taoist Chan's real body was being supported by the puppet, his techniques had not changed. It was just that without the Blood Dissolving Needle, the puppet had used most of its essence to condense this three-inch Blood Dissolving Needle. Its power was strong, and its changes were unpredictable. It still made Lu Ping tremble in the process of dealing with it.
After Taoist Chan's Real Body Puppet condensed more than half of its Spiritual Qi into this Spiritual Light Needle, its other means were greatly limited due to the loss of Spiritual Qi. In the face of Xiao Baiyu and Mi Xuance's joint attack, it seemed to be in a fluster for a while and was in a difficult situation!
Xiao Baiyu's cultivation base was at the late stage of the first realm. As a highly talented sword cultivator, his combat strength was only slightly weaker than a True Spirit Cultivator who had reached the peak of the first realm.
At the moment, Lu Ping was facing Daoist Chan's puppet that was mostly occupied by Lu Ping's attention. With the Sky-Opening Sword in his hand, Lu Ping was able to force the puppet cultivator into a corner. With Mi Xuance's support from the side, the puppet's defensive spells had long been shattered by Lu Ping's attacks. The veil on its face had also been cut by Lu Ping's Sword Qi, and its body was riddled with wounds caused by Lu Ping's Sword Qi. Pure origin Qi seeped out of the wounds.
The puppet had been made into a puppet, so as long as its limbs were not dismembered, it would not be affected too much for a short period of time. However, although there was no blood flowing out of the wounds, the puppet's body was filled with compressed and pure original energy. Now, the original energy was leaking out through the wounds. As time went on, the puppet would not be able to hold on any longer.
The puppet seemed to understand that it was a moment of life and death. It tried its best to recall the three-inch-long beam of light, which contained most of its essence. As long as the beam of light entered its body, its strength would skyrocket. Even if it was no match for the enemy, it would still be able to escape. At the very least, it would not be taken down one by one like this.
However, Lu Ping had been entangled with the beam of light for such a long time. He had long anticipated that the Taoist of Puppet would do something like this. Therefore, he did not hesitate to consume a great deal of his inner energy. The moment he cast the Art of Vast Seas and Mulberry Fields to slow down the beam of light, he commanded the Sword of True Spirit to cast a set of original Metal-elemental sword techniques called the "Innumerable Swords to the Root". First, it weaved an impenetrable net of swords in the air, then shrank. Tens of thousands of Metal-elemental sword beams slashed at the Taoist, sending sparks flying in all directions.
Without the support of the beam of light, Taoist Chan's true form puppet's strength was mostly nullified. Xiao Baiyu seized the opportunity to break the Taoist of Puppet's defensive magic again and thrust the broken Heaven Splitting Sword straight at her heart.
"No!"
A shrill cry came from afar. A blood-red light pierced through the air from a great distance away and shot towards the back of Xiao Baiyu's head in the blink of an eye, forcing him to pull back his sword to save himself.
The moment the blood-red light flashed, even though Lu Ping was still quite a distance away from it, he suddenly felt a bone-chilling aura coming at him. Every hair on his body stood on end, and he felt as if his blood was about to seep out of his veins.
What a powerful spirit treasure. Aside from the Divine Needle of Blood, one of the Heaven-splitting Divine Artifacts, what else could there be?
A flash of sword light exploded from the blood-red light. Xiao Baiyu managed to avoid the attack, but the Taoist of Puppet also seized the opportunity to push back Mi Xuance's attack and completely escape from danger.
Although Xiao Baiyu had been ambushed, he did not retaliate in anger. Instead, he looked at the rainbow light that was approaching him from afar. The flying sword in his hand trembled as he snorted coldly. "What is the meaning of this, Fairy Butterfly? This person is only a puppet. He's no longer the Heaven-splitting Divine Ancestor of your cicada lineage!"
Naturally, Xiao Baiyu knew that while the strike from the Divine Needle of Blood seemed dangerous, the Fairy Butterfly had not actually used her full strength. Otherwise, with the power of the Heaven-splitting Divine Needle of Blood, Xiao Baiyu would have been heavily injured even if he managed to survive a sneak attack from the Fairy Butterfly who was at the peak of the first realm. It was exactly because of this that Xiao Baiyu did not retaliate immediately after blocking the Fairy Butterfly's attack.
When the rainbow light landed, the Fairy Butterfly, who still had a white veil over her face but was drenched in sweat and panting heavily, appeared to be in an extremely sorry state, saw that Taoist Chan's puppet body was still retreating. Her brows relaxed slightly and she apologized to Xiao Baiyu, "Please forgive me, Brother Xiao. I could not help but feel anxious when I saw the true form of the cicada lineage's ancestor about to be destroyed. As a result, I've ruined your plans. I apologize!"
