Li Tianyan looked at the attacking puppet with a weird smile on his lips, but at the critical moment, small figures stood in front of him.
Under the pressure of the core formation puppet, Cheng Qi was completely unable to use his spiritual power, but he knew the puppet was coming for Li Tianyan. Seeing the ferocious face of the puppet, approaching with a threatening aura of killing, Cheng Qi’s mind was in a state of confusion. He was blank, but his body reflexively moved forward to block Li Tianyan.
Unexpectedly, the expected attack did not happen, and Cheng Qi fell into a warm embrace instead. He suddenly woke up and opened his eyes when he felt Li Tianyan’s familiar breath.
Li Tianyan saw Cheng Qi’s reaction in his eyes, and a warmth flowed into his heart, and the smile on his face softened, “It’s okay.”
There was a protective array on the spaceship. Even if the puppet really wanted to attack him, it would take time to break through the protective formation. Without this layer of protection, Li Tianyan would not have let the puppet get close.
Cheng Qi looked up at Li Tianyan and blinked, then noticed the pressure of the core formation puppet had disappeared. Then he slowly turned back to look behind him, but he happened to meet the puppet’s pupilless eyes, which made Cheng Qi take a sharp breath.
For some reason, the core formation puppet just stood upright outside the spacecraft, at eye level with the two of them. Cheng Qi was standing very close to the edge of the boat, and when he turned his head, the puppet was very close.
“Don’t be afraid.” Li Tianyan raised his hand to cover Cheng Qi’s eyes. As soon as he thought, the puppet immediately jumped up and attacked the core formation evil cultivator in mid-air.
After Su Yu’s wooden sword and the magic pestle clashed several times, the spiritual light dissipated. Su Yu’s natal magic weapon was damaged, and he couldn’t help but spurt out a mouthful of blood. He was about to resist the blow of the magic pestle, but unexpectedly, the evil cultivator suddenly vomited blood without warning, held his head, and started to scream in pain. Even the magic pestle in mid-air stopped moving due to the loss of control.
The incident happened so quickly that Su Yu and Tian Min were both bewildered. They then heard the evil cultivator suddenly yell like crazy, “Impossible, who can erase my soul mark?”
The evil cultivator tried to use his mental power to regain control of the puppet but failed several times. The new soul mark on the puppet was like an unshakable mountain. Seeing that the puppet he had worked so hard to cultivate had turned into his enemy, the evil cultivator was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Tian Min couldn’t believe it when he saw the puppet was actually fighting the evil cultivator. He checked it again with his spiritual sense and made sure it was not a hallucination. Then he suddenly realized something and looked up at Li Tianyan on the spaceship.
“It was Tianyan who controlled the puppet,” Elder Tian Min suddenly said.
Hearing the sound, Su Yu also reacted. His true spiritual energy moved slightly and a soft wood energy sent Tian Min back to the gourd. Then he attacked the evil cultivator with the puppet. The core formation puppet’s attack was domineering and powerful, making it much easier to deal with the evil cultivator.
Li Tianyan controlled the puppet with all his heart. Although his cultivation was weak, his soul power was unmatched by anyone in this world. It turned out the evil cultivator and the puppets had been in agreement for a long time, making it not easy to seize them. The blame was that the evil cultivator was too narrow-minded and could control so many puppets at once, giving Li Tianyan the opportunity to take advantage.
However, it was obviously a bit difficult to control a core formation puppet with his foundation-establishment cultivation, and he could not hold on for too long.
The evil cultivator was at the end of his strength. He used the magic pestle twice, which consumed a huge amount of energy, and the soul mark of the puppet was taken away and damaged. At this time, he was fighting with two elders, his weakness became more and more obvious. He glanced at the spaceship with a sinister look, and then turned into a ball of evil mist and disappeared.
When Li Tianyan saw a dozen foundation-establishment puppets trying to escape from the fight, he immediately used his mental power to grab the two closest ones, but the others were beyond his power, and he could only watch them escape. As the soul marks on the two foundation-establishment puppets were erased, an angry voice came from the sky.
“Boy, just wait for me. Next time you fall into my hands, I will definitely skin you.”
.
The Core Formation evil cultivator who was fighting with Xuan Zhen on the other side seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly withdrew. Yan Si still wanted to chase but was stopped by the sect leader with his hand raised.
“Hurry back and take a look.” Although Xuan Zhen’s face was calm, his heart was quite shaken.
Knowing the evil cultivator was trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain, both he and Yan Si wanted to fight quickly, but instead they were restrained by a puppet. If the Shura Sect cultivated such a puppet, it might be a threat to the entire cultivation world. It seemed that things were more complicated than he had imagined.
When Xuan Zhen and Yan Si returned to the spaceship, there was no trace of the evil cultivator, but a group of elders and disciples were gathered on the deck. Xuan Zhen glanced with his spiritual consciousness and saw a few puppets standing in the middle of the crowd, and he was surprised.
Everyone on the boat also noticed the figure of the sect master. They turned around and saluted Xuan Zhen, “Sect master.”
“What’s going on here?” Xuan Zhen walked to the three puppets in the middle and found one of them had the breath of a core formation.
“Why… why is this Core Formation Puppet here?” Yan Si just fought against the Core Formation Puppet. When he saw another one in front of him, his face changed slightly.
“A core formation evil cultivator just appeared. This person controlled a core formation puppet and a dozen foundation-establishment puppets. We almost suffered a big loss. It was Li Tianyan who took away the core formation puppet from the evil cultivator, and we were able to escape a calamity.”
Su Yu reported to Xuan Zhen what just happened, but after speaking for a while, he said with a heavy face, “I just fought against the evil cultivator, and Elder Yin died unfortunately.”
On this trip, losing an elder was a significant loss, and Xuan Zhen’s face darkened. However, considering the strength of these puppets, losing one person was already a blessing among misfortunes. Thinking of what Su Yu said that Li Tianyan snatched the puppet, his eyes couldn’t help but fall on the person next to the puppet.
“You mean Li Tianyan can control these three puppets?” Yan Si also found it unbelievable. What he couldn’t do, Li Tianyan, only a Foundation Establishment disciple, could.
“That’s it.” Su Yu also felt a little confused at this time. He had fought with the puppet and knew how deep the spiritual contract between the evil cultivator and the puppet was.
