Following the screeching sound, the tunnel behind Gu Zheng flashed with a curtain of light, completely blocking their escape route.
The stone statues in the middle seemed to come alive as a layer of red began to appear on their bodies. At the same time, a layer of faint blue mist rose and covered the entire area.
The beautiful scenery above their heads was no longer visible. Even some places in the distance were covered by the blue mist.
As for the Blue Medicine Sect's disciple, he was like a frightened rabbit, running away at top speed and quickly disappearing into the thick fog.
"Who are you people, and why are you sneaking in here?!" The shrill alarm in the sky suddenly stopped and a male voice that had obviously changed its tone rose in the air.
"They don't know how many people we have. You go to the front and attract their attention. Say that we are here for Little Ying and continue to buy them some time. I will sneak in and see if I can sneak in and rescue Little Ying." Gu Zheng said decisively when he heard this.
From this sentence, it seems that no matter who the other party is, they don't have much power here. Otherwise, they would have just shown themselves and come straight for them.
Hearing this, Purple Robe nodded. Without hesitation, he removed his disguise and appeared at the entrance.
"Hurry up and hand over my Spirit Child. Otherwise, I won't ask who you are or what you want. I will tear this place down. How dare you bewitch my Spirit Child? I really don't know who gave you the guts to do so."
As Zi Yi spoke, the aura on her body unscrupulously spread out in all directions, causing the thick fog to churn violently.
"I am very sorry, I did not expect this thing to attract your Spirit Child. But don't worry, your Spirit Child has not suffered any harm." The voice paused for a moment before speaking again.
"What are you apologizing for? Hurry up and release my Spirit Child." Purple Robe's eyes looked around, trying to find the source of the voice. But under the interference of the mist, it was impossible to pinpoint his exact location. It felt the same everywhere.
"We can release him for you, but first you must agree to one of our requests." The voice spoke again, directed at Purple Robe.
"Request? You still have the guts to make demands of me. Do you believe that I won't tear this place apart? "Zi Yi's body emitted a purple glow as she threatened.
"Even if you tear this place down, you will not be able to save your Spirit Child. Instead, you will only cause her more trouble. Now that she has been locked up by us, it is rare to find such a powerful Spirit Child. We have to use some unconventional methods to trap her. However, are you not going to listen to our methods? I can guarantee that I will not endanger your lives. I will only delay your time. "The voice was not angry at all. Instead, it tried to persuade them again.
"Alright, tell me about it first, then I'll decide whether to use it or not." When Zi Yi heard the threat in the other party's tone, the purple light on her body fell. She hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"It's actually very simple. You're the reinforcements here, right? Since you've discovered this place, you can stay here and wait for the battle to end. At that time, I'll let you go without harming your life. What do you think?" The voice made a seemingly good suggestion.
"Do you think I'm stupid? When the battle ends, there are so many of you. Even if I have wings, I won't be able to escape. Let you catch me like a turtle in a jar? Now, I'll say the same thing again. Hurry up and let her out. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. "Zi Yi said in disdain. She then started to walk forward.
"Since you don't know what's good for you, then don't blame us for being rude. Our retreat is not because we are weak." The figure saw this and said in the same way.
Just as he finished speaking, there was a vibration in the air. It seemed that something was appearing.
Zi Yi looked around with rapt attention. In the surrounding blue mist, red eyes suddenly lit up. At the same time, black gas was emitted from their bodies and gathered towards the center.
Zi Yi's hands shook. She made the first move. Suddenly, hundreds of purple lightning balls appeared in her hands. She threw them towards the center. Although she did not know what it was, she knew that something unpleasant was happening.
As for the pillars that were emitting red light, each of them was rewarded with dozens of lightning balls. She had to turn this place upside down and continue to buy some time for Gu Zheng.
But in the air, red light suddenly came out of the stone statue's eyes. Almost in the blink of an eye, the purple lightning balls were detonated in the air. In the center of the black gas, a black light suddenly flashed. A thick black pillar the size of a house suddenly rose from it. The purple lightning balls in the middle were instantly destroyed.
The black pillar of light did not slow down. It shot towards Zi Yi and drowned her in the next moment.
But if one looked closely, one could see that a purple light was stubbornly holding on. The black fog could not penetrate her defense to hurt her, but it temporarily trapped her.
At this moment, the stone statues around the black fog shot rays of red light into the red fog and merged with it. All of the black fog rolled violently, and soon, a black figure slowly appeared in the air.
"Open for me!"
Zi Yi suddenly shouted in the air. She suddenly made a hand seal and pushed forward. A purple light pillar the size of a bowl shot out from her palm. It instantly blocked the black pillar in the air.
Zi Yi shook her head slightly. The earrings on her ears shook. A faint purple light flashed. Two purple spirit tattoos sank into the purple light pillar below.
The originally menacing purple light pillar became even brighter at this moment. The originally evenly matched situation was instantly broken.
The purple light pillar was like a sharp knife. It cut its own path through the black pillar. It quickly rushed up, as if it wanted to destroy the black figure.
However, when the purple beam of light was still halfway there, all the surrounding black fog suddenly shrank back, and the huge figure finally condensed and took shape.
At this moment, the figure was more than ten feet tall. His entire body was wrapped in black armor, which was engraved with large amounts of runes. Only his eyes were blood-red. He held a hammer in one hand, which was covered with black spikes. Any one of those spikes could easily pierce through Zi Yi's body. In the other hand, he held a shield, which was surrounded by countless black gas.
Its body seemed to be several times bigger than Zi Yi. Its body emitted an incomparably fierce aura. It was not weaker than Zi Yi at all.
"Clang!"
The black hammer in the figure's hand suddenly smashed down, smashing right into the purple pillar of light. After a loud bang, the purple pillar of light was directly smashed into smithereens by the huge force.
"It's just an incomparably huge monster. How can it stop me!" Zi Yi looked at the summoned puppet and said disdainfully.
"I hope you can still say this after you die. Go and kill her!" The voice was clearly paying attention. As soon as Zi Yi's voice fell, the other side also spoke.
The figure took large strides towards Zi Yi. The entire ground shook as the figure walked.
"Take this!"
Zi Yi's body slightly floated. A purple light flashed in her hand. A purple lightning appeared in her hand. It emitted an endless thunder aura. She instantly threw it towards the figure that was running over.
"Kacha!"
The moment Zi Yi attacked, a thunderous sound appeared in the air. The purple lightning flashed in the air and arrived in front of the figure.
However, the figure's reaction was extremely fast. The black shield in its hand blocked diagonally above its head. The black gas on the shield gathered and was instantly bombarded by the purple lightning.
The huge power forced the figure to stop. A large amount of purple lightning arcs appeared on its body. It was like a nimble fairy. It crackled and jumped, causing the huge figure's body to emit waves of black gas.
However, in the next moment, the surrounding stone pillars flashed with red light. It instantly formed a red barrier that surrounded the figure. The purple lightning on the barrier dissipated almost at the same time. Under the red light's replenishment, the figure was not damaged at all.
"This puppet is your last resort? It seems that your defense is indeed a bit lax. "Zi Yi saw this and was not nervous at all. Instead, she mocked.
So what if the other party summoned something powerful? After all, it was an inanimate object. No matter how powerful it was, she could still defeat it.
However, the mysterious voice did not say anything. The huge puppet moved again. This time, at the same time, the surrounding red pillars also shot red light at Zi Yi. It seemed to want to disturb her.
Although the red light did not seem to have any power, she did not want to touch it. She integrated her body and began to dodge in the air. As for the figure, it continued to approach her.
Zi Yi dodged the dense and fast red light. When she saw the figure rushing over, purple lightning balls appeared out of thin air and rushed towards the figure again.
"Rumble!"
The other party didn't even try to dodge the lightning balls that filled the sky. He simply placed his shield in front of his head and walked over while enduring the lightning balls.
Those lightning balls that were not prepared well could not cause any damage to him.
Zi Yi saw that the figure was getting closer to her. She was about to retreat and break the stone statues first. However, at this moment, the black hammer in his hand suddenly pointed forward. A blue light instantly appeared and rushed towards Zi Yi.
Zi Yi thought that the figure was going to use a long distance attack or directly smash her with the hammer. She flew to the side and coincidentally collided with the blue light. In an instant, she was wrapped around and absorbed into her body.
Zi Yi hurriedly checked her body. However, she did not find anything unusual. Just as she was feeling puzzled, she suddenly saw a faint blue light on her body and connected with the figure.
At this moment, the figure's speed seemed to have doubled. He pounced towards her and the black hammer in his hand smashed towards her body.
Zi Yi did not dare to take it head on. It was obvious that the figure was very strong. If the figure smashed her waist, in her current state, she would definitely be smashed by the hammer.
At this moment, the red light in the sky stopped. She hurriedly flew outside. However, the next moment, she felt her abdomen tighten. It was as if she was being pulled by a rope. She was caught off guard and was even pushed back.
Only then did she realize that the blue figure was actually binding her body. She could not get too far away from the figure.
Zi Yi made a prompt decision. She raised her hand and slashed forward. However, she realized that the figure was like air. It was not affected at all.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Just as Zi Yi was about to break free, the black hammer in the puppet's hand shone with a black light. The spikes on the hammer were filled with black gas. In the next moment, hundreds of black spikes pierced towards Zi Yi.
Seeing this, it seemed that Zi Yi's wish to buy some time was not going to work. Her originally purple eyes strangely turned black. At the same time, a very thin sword appeared in her hand. It looked more like an ornament.
Although it did not look very imposing, its power was not reduced at all. As Zi Yi's weapon, she rarely took it out. She thrust it forward. A black light suddenly flashed at the tip of the sword. Following that, the sound of thunder resounded in the sky.
A black air wave visible to the naked eye suddenly burst out from the tip of the sword, forming a black barrier. In the next moment, countless black lightning bolts emerged from the barrier, forming a lightning storm that rushed toward the opponent's black spike.
Those seemingly menacing black spikes were instantly submerged in the black lightning storm and continued to rush towards the puppets above.
"Bang!"
Facing such a powerful attack, the puppet raised the black hammer in its hand high up. It directly smashed towards the storm. In an instant, it broke through the outer layer. The black lightning jumped on top of it. It was unable to break through the opponent's defense.
Instead, there was a violent tremor in the middle. A huge wave of air rose up. Not only did it break the black storm, it also sent Zi Yi flying.
The puppet took a big step forward. It slapped the shield in its hand towards Zi Yi. Immediately, it turned into mist and spread in the air.
Behind the puppet, Zi Yi's figure flashed at the same time. The sharp sword in her hand trembled in the air. Purple lightning flashed on it as it stabbed towards the puppet's head.
The puppet's body seemed clumsy, but when it sensed danger, it quickly turned around with unnatural agility. The black hammer in its hand actually flew out of its hand, drawing an arc in the air as it flew towards Zi Yi.
The other shield quickly blocked in front of Zi Yi. The black mist on it condensed and turned into black snakes. They bit towards Zi Yi.
A black light flashed in Zi Yi's eyes. Two tiny black lightning bolts shot out from her eyes. One of them destroyed all the black fog outside. Those black snakes didn't even get close to Zi Yi. They turned into black fog and slowly rose up.
The other one directly hit the middle of the shield. There was a slight cracking sound. A huge crack appeared in the middle of this sturdy shield.
Then, a cold light flashed. In an instant, the shield was broken in half. The tip of the sword went straight for the puppet's head.
At the critical moment, the puppet raised its arm that was holding the shield and slammed it heavily against the sword. The huge force caused Zi Yi's arm to be lifted, and it brushed past the puppet's head. It didn't even touch the puppet's helmet.
At that moment, there was a scream. The black hammer had already reached Zi Yi's side. Zi Yi had no choice but to step back.
Half of the puppet's arm had almost been cut off, but the black mist in the wound was moving quickly. It was healing faster.
Zi Yi wanted to strike while the iron was hot. She wanted to cripple the puppet first. But suddenly, from the blue curtain in the sky, a blue beam of light fell from the sky. It went straight into the puppet's head.
This scene shocked Zi Yi. She became cautious. She did not go forward to see what the puppet was doing.
After a few breaths of time, the puppet's blood-red eyes disappeared. It became like a normal person. It was as if Zi Yi was not facing a puppet, but an enemy with thoughts.
"It seems that you are much more stupid than I thought. Even though my transfer technique is very slow, you still did not notice. I really wonder how you will pass the previous level." At that moment, a strange voice came from the puppet's mouth. At the same time, the puppet's body shrank rapidly.
"Puppet transfer technique!" Zi Yi was shocked. She looked around, but she did not find anything. She still could not see through this place.
However, she knew this method. In fact, it was to put a strand of her consciousness into the puppet to control the body. If she lost it, she would not lose much. Usually, it was because her cultivation was not high enough. It was a trick. It was very rare to see it now.
"So, let me exchange a few moves with you!" The puppet had become the size of a normal person. The black hammer in its hand had also shrunk. Even the broken black shield had reappeared in its hand.
The only thing that did not change was that there was still a blue ribbon between the two of them.
As the puppet charged at Zi Yi, Zi Yi was a bit embarrassed. The puppet's battle experience was not as rich as Changfeng's, but it was far more than hers. After a few short exchanges, she was at a disadvantage.
The combination of the black hammer and shield forced Zi Yi back. No matter how clever his attacks were, they were all blocked by the puppet. Even the powerful black ball could only stop the puppet for a moment.
After half an incense stick's worth of time, Zi Yi was only left with the ability to defend. She had been suppressed from beginning to end. Because the puppet's body was a puppet, its defense was very strong except for its head. It did not care about some of the attacks at all. It just focused on defending its weak points. This kind of desperate fighting made Zi Yi feel like she was facing a turtle shell.
Even if there were some obvious flaws, when she attacked, she would only leave a white mark on the puppet's body. Instead, she would be hit even harder. After a few exchanges, Zi Yi's body was bleeding.
That blue ribbon made it impossible for her to get away from the puppet. In other words, she couldn't run even if she wanted to.
Although the puppet had the upper hand, it was not in a hurry. It kept pressing down on Zi Yi, wanting to slowly wear her down.
After all, the puppet did not have any magic spells other than its physical advantage. It also did not have many explosive moves. This puppet was not meant for fighting. They did not think that someone would be able to find this place at this time.
At this time, after clashing with the puppet again, she was pushed back. At the same time, she turned around and changed into her original form.
However, she was now only about 30 meters long. The purple patterns on her body were even denser. Moreover, on the other side of the clam shell, the part that was originally missing, had been patched up. It was symmetrical with the other side.
Seeing the puppet pounce again, the clam shell opened slightly and a purple light flashed in the air. It seemed to have no aura as it arrived in front of the puppet.
