The Corpse Puppet Technique was the witchcraft of the Celestial Fox People that Yun Sheng had learned after entering the Celestial Fox Tomb. It was the witchcraft that the Celestial Fox People was most proficient in.
At first glance, the Corpse Puppet Technique didn't sound very powerful. It wasn't a magic spell or a battle technique.
However, only those who had learned the Corpse Puppet Technique would know how terrifying the Corpse Puppet Technique was.
The Corpse Puppet Technique was divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced stages. They corresponded to the three stages of proficiency, proficiency, and expertise.
Proficiency allowed one to control ordinary people. The learning time was about one to five years.
Proficiency allowed one to control people or magical beasts that were weaker than oneself. The learning time was about five to twenty years.
Only proficiency allowed one to surpass one's level and control people that were equal to or stronger than oneself. To reach the level of expertise required at least twenty years of cultivation.
According to the stone tablet in the Celestial Fox Tomb, Hu Yan was proficient in the Corpse Puppet Technique. She had even used the Corpse Puppet Technique to instantly kill a Martial Emperor.
Yun Sheng had only learned the Corpse Puppet Technique for less than five years. However, when she was cultivating, she accidentally discovered that the Corpse Puppet Technique was unexpectedly compatible with the Yan Family's Shennong Eye. Cultivating the two as one allowed her to achieve twice the results with half the effort.
Therefore, even though Yun Sheng had only learned the Corpse Puppet Technique for less than five years, she had already reached proficiency in it.
However, even though she had reached proficiency, Yun Sheng could only use the Corpse Puppet Technique to control warriors or magicians that were weaker than herself. Furthermore, she couldn't maintain the technique for more than six Hours.
Previously, Yun Sheng had indeed used the technique a few times and it was very effective. However, those targets were only average warriors or magicians.
However, it was different this time. Yun Sheng was going to use the Corpse Puppet Technique on her own mother.
As the Ninth Summoner of the Zao State, Hu Jiusheng was much stronger than the Seventh Summoner that Yun Sheng had previously fought. Her cultivation was also slightly higher than Yun Sheng's.
Yun Sheng didn't know how effective the Corpse Puppet Technique would be on her.
Yun Sheng's ethereal voice fell into Hu Jiusheng's ears, giving her the illusion that she was in the clouds.
"Mother, I'm Yun Sheng. Father and I are here to find you. Let's go home together," Yun Sheng whispered as if she was coaxing a child.
"No, my home is in the Zao State." Hu Jiusheng shook her head. She was like a lost child.
"The Zao State is not your home. It was The Emperor Zao In Red who used his heart to control you." Yun Sheng was not discouraged and continued to guide her patiently.
Yun Canghai was also anxious as he stared at his wife.
He wanted to go forward, but he was afraid that he would scare Hu Jiusheng, so he could only wait anxiously at the side.
"Jiu Sheng, what are you hesitating for? Kill these people! "Just as Yun Sheng's Corpse Puppet Technique was getting better, The Emperor Zao In Red suddenly appeared in the dungeon.
Seeing Hu Jiusheng's appearance, The Emperor Zao In Red was terrified. He took out a heart crystal.
Seeing the heart crystal, Hu Jiusheng, who had lost her ability to resist, suddenly had her eyes turn red.
"Mother! Look at me, don't worry about the heart crystal. I know you recognize me and Father. Wake up, for the past ten years, Father and I have been waiting for you to come back. We have always been waiting for you! "Yun Sheng suddenly grabbed Hu Jiusheng's arms. Her black eyes had turned golden.
Hu Jiusheng stared at the pair of golden eyes in front of her. She felt as if her head was being pierced by needles. It was painful.
"No — Don't force me." Hu Jiusheng held her head in pain.
Seeing Hu Jiusheng in pain, Yun Canghai and The Emperor Zao In Red couldn't help but step forward at the same time.
"Mother! Come back! " Yun Sheng's pupils shrank. She couldn't help but tighten her grip on Hu Jiusheng's hands. The power of the Jade Marrow Technique in her body was forced into Hu Jiusheng's body.
Almost at the same time, there was a "bang" sound. The heart crystal in The Emperor Zao In Red's hand exploded.
The sharp fragments of the heart crystal caused The Emperor Zao In Red's hand to bleed.
This was!
The Emperor Zao In Red couldn't believe that the heart crystal had exploded.
Hu Jiusheng, who had lost control of the heart crystal's power, blacked out and fainted in Yun Sheng's arms.
"Jiu Sheng!"
"Jiu Sheng!"
Seeing that Hu Jiusheng had fainted, the two men who were deeply in love with Hu Jiusheng looked worried. At the same time, they also noticed each other.
"Yun Canghai, you're still alive. If I had known earlier, I would have killed you myself eighteen years ago!" The Emperor Zao In Red regretted not killing Yun Canghai and his bastard child.
If he hadn't been concerned about his identity as the Emperor Zao, or if he hadn't believed in the effects of the Beast Blood Curse, this wouldn't have happened today.
"The Emperor Zao In Red, you despicable and shameless person. You first cast the Beast Blood Curse on me, then used the heart crystal to control Jiu Sheng. Today, I, Yun Canghai, will take revenge even if I have to risk my life." The man in front of him was the main culprit who had caused his family of three to suffer for so many years!
"Haha, Yun Canghai, what right do you have to fight with me? In terms of character, appearance, power, and influence, you can't compare to me in any of them. The only thing I lost to you in is that I am Jiu Sheng's master. If Jiu Sheng hadn't been afraid of my master-disciple relationship, she would never have married you! "The Emperor Zao In Red said disdainfully.
He had always believed that Hu Jiusheng had only chosen Yun Canghai because she had been deceived by him.
Back then, he had confessed his feelings to Hu Jiusheng, but Hu Jiusheng had rejected him on the grounds that they were master and disciple and that the world wouldn't tolerate it.
"You're wrong. My mother has never liked you. The Emperor Zao In Red, you don't have to lie to yourself. If my mother had even the slightest bit of love for you, you wouldn't have used the heart crystal to control her," the woman next to him sneered.
Yun Sheng's words stung The Emperor Zao In Red.
Yun Sheng was right. Back then, The Emperor Zao In Red had painstakingly captured Hu Jiusheng and brought her back to the Zao State. He had tried to persuade her nicely, thinking that Hu Jiusheng would accept him.
Who would have thought that Hu Jiusheng wouldn't even say a word to him?
She only had "hatred" for the Zao State and The Emperor Zao In Red.
She hated the Zao State and The Emperor Zao In Red for killing so many Blood Cloud Beasts. She hated the Zao State for killing her foster parents.
"You're that vile spawn!" The Emperor Zao In Red stared at Yun Sheng.
"You're that shameless Emperor Zao!" Yun Sheng raised her eyebrows.
Bah!
What an old man. Although he had taken good care of himself, Yun Sheng had heard that The Emperor Zao In Red was of the same generation as the First Summoner and Elder Si Ming.
He was at least sixty or seventy years old. He was old enough to be her mother's father. How dare he have designs on her beautiful mother?
"How dare you insult I!" The Emperor Zao In Red was one of the strongest people in both the Zao State and the Wuji Continent. No one had ever insulted him in such a tone!
"So what if I'm insulting you? You broke up a family and stole someone's wife. You shameless old man. You're not worthy of being Emperor Zao!" Yun Sheng's words were sharp. The Emperor Zao In Red was so angry that his face turned green and white.
