Chapter 403: Little Abacus
However, Qingyang also knew that he needed to deal with more than just one puppet. The remaining ones were just a little further away and were not as fast as the puppets here. They could rush over at any time. While dealing with this puppet, he also had to pay attention to other directions and even guard against sneak attacks from the living dead, so he didn't dare to use all his strength.
These things sounded slow, but in fact, it was just a blink of an eye. In a blink of an eye, the seven people were fighting with the nine puppets here. At this time, the remaining five puppets also surrounded them. Fortunately, everyone had made a good division of labor before, so they didn't get too busy.
Two of them were left behind by the people of Yuling Sect. Liang Chongtian and Niu Cheng didn't take one. Their strength was slightly lower. Now it was a little difficult to deal with two puppets at a time. In a short period of time, they could only be in a situation where they defended more and attacked less.
The other two attacked Tian Xinmiao together. Tian Xinmiao had already dealt with two puppets, so he couldn't spare any hands. If four of them came together, he might lose.
However, Xiao Yuhan was prepared. With a shake of his hand, a colorful silk ribbon suddenly flew out and wrapped around the head of one of the puppets. He pulled the puppet to the side and brought it to Fang Lingyan's side. Fang Lingyan temporarily blocked it. At the same time, Xiao Yuhan flashed and blocked the remaining puppet.
The fourteen puppets had been allocated long ago. The Yuling Sect and the Yinyang Sect blocked six each. Qingyang was not to be outdone and kept the last puppet.
However, Qingyang had the lowest cultivation among these people. When facing two puppets, Qingyang had a much harder time dealing with them. Facing such lifeless puppets, the alcoholic bee could not help much. Qingyang could only take out another magic sword and perform the dual-element sword technique.
The dual-element sword technique was powerful and made up for Qingyang's lack of strength. At the same time, he was not at a disadvantage when facing two puppets. The only drawback was that it consumed more divine thoughts and true energy. The other two disciples of the immortal sect nodded secretly when they saw Qingyang take action. This kid is really capable.
Seven people fought against fourteen puppets and ended up in a tie. It seems that it will be difficult to tell the winner for a while. Seven people are in this situation. I don’t know how the four disciples of the Yuling Sect broke through the puppet formation during the last trial.
However, looking at the ending of three deaths and one serious injury, we know that they must have tried their best. Although the living dead are powerful, they are not enough to leave three lives at once.
However, judging from the current situation, many people obviously held back. It’s hard to say about Liang Chongtian and Niu Cheng, but the real strength of the other six-level Qi Refining cultivators must be more than that.
As for Xiao Yuhan, she is the strongest among the seven. If she is willing to fight hard, the two puppets will not be her opponent. The reason why she is not in a hurry to defeat her opponent may be that she may be on guard against the sudden appearance of the living dead to avoid being caught off guard. On the other hand, she must have some small ideas. Maybe she wants to use the puppet formation to consume the strength of others.
Some methods are not convenient to use openly, but it is still possible to do some tricks in secret. If the time is delayed for a little longer, someone may be injured or killed because of inability to respond, then there will be one less person to share the treasure? If two or three other people are killed or injured, the Yin-Yang Sect will completely take the initiative. Even if they turn against each other on the spot, no one should dare to say anything.
Seeing that time is dragging on for longer and longer, Qiao Shan seems to have seen Xiao Yuhan's little thoughts and can't help but feel anxious. This woman is too insidious. No, it can't be dragged on like this, otherwise the Yuling Sect will be making wedding clothes for others. It seems that some real means must be used.
Seeing a puppet attacking him again, Qiao Shan dodged to the side and avoided the puppet's attack. At the same time, he used the whip in his hand to wrap around the puppet's shoulder and pulled it to the side. The puppet couldn't stop in time and immediately rushed forward uncontrollably.
At the same time, Qiao Shan had already held a top-grade magic talisman, the Fiery Flame Talisman, in his hand. When the puppet missed him, he directly activated the talisman and slapped the puppet.
Spiritual wood is most afraid of spiritual fire, so puppets made of spiritual wood are also afraid of spiritual fire. Of course, low-level spiritual fire is useless for these Qi-refining puppets. Only the spiritual fire released by the fire-attributed spiritual talismans that exceed the level of the top-grade magic talismans can ignite the Qi-refining wooden puppets.
After the Fiery Flame Talisman was activated, it instantly released a large ball of flames, and the hot breath was so hot that even Qingyang, who was four or five feet away from Qiao Shan, felt that his whole body was roasted hot. The wooden puppet was instantly ignited, and the flames burned directly on the back of the wooden puppet.
Seeing the flames on the wooden puppet burning more and more fiercely, a large area of the entire back was roasted black. At this moment, a layer of spiritual light suddenly bloomed on the wooden puppet, gradually suppressing the flames behind it. It looked like this, if there was no interference, this fire would soon be extinguished.
Qiao Shan naturally would not give the wooden puppet this opportunity. He suddenly rushed forward, mobilized his whole body of true energy and slapped the wooden puppet with a palm, shaking off the spiritual light shield that had just been formed. With this move, the spiritual light dissipated, and the flame that had just been suppressed by the wooden puppet burned again.
Faced with such a situation, the puppet was not completely powerless to fight back. While mobilizing the spiritual light on its body to suppress the flame, it cooperated with another puppet to launch a rush attack on Qiao Shan. However, Qiao Shan had already made up his mind to kill one puppet first. He launched continuous attacks, not giving the wooden puppet any chance to extinguish the flame on his body, and even ignored the other wooden puppet behind him.
Whether it was attacking or defending, or igniting the spiritual light to extinguish the flame, it consumed a lot of energy. Under this double pressure, the wooden puppet consumed a lot of energy, and it was too late to extinguish the flame on its body. Moreover, the flame released by the top-grade magic talisman was not so easy to extinguish. The flame and spiritual light on the puppet's body rose and fell, and gradually, a large area on the back was burned, revealing a large black hole behind.
After such a heavy blow, the puppet was already at the end of its strength. Not long after, it was chopped by Qiao Shan's palm, which completely shattered some of the control devices inside. The wooden puppet squeaked a few times and fell to the ground, unable to move.
Finally, a puppet was extinguished, but Qiao Shan's situation was not much better. In order to deal with this puppet with all his strength, he relaxed his defense against the other puppet a lot. He was almost hit by the puppet head-on several times. Fortunately, he had a deep cultivation and dodged in time. He was only rubbed by the side of the puppet a few times, but he was not seriously injured.
