Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 300 Corpse Puppet Girl

After the coffin lid was lifted, a young girl puppet dressed in gorgeous clothes appeared and walked out of the coffin.

The entire coffin was lined with black wood, made from the finest ebony.

It's clear that the Corpse Whisperer cherishes his corpse puppet quite a bit.

She stood in the hazy moonlight, like the brightest star in the night sky, her skin radiating an unnatural white light, so white it was frightening.

Her long, black hair danced in the wind, brushing against her shoulders and cascading down like a waterfall.

Her eyes, crafted from the finest sapphires, were deep and bright under the soft moonlight.

Her eyebrows were long and slender like willow branches, and with a slight lift of them, she exuded an air of untamed spirit.

With a lithe figure and a black, form-fitting, and elegant outfit, she exudes a dashing and heroic air.

The two slender swords in his hands were as black as ink. He twirled them with a series of sword flourishes, emitting a series of sharp sword lights.

She was like a rose blooming under the moon, beautiful yet thorny, captivating people with her beauty while making them hesitant to approach her.

It felt like a living person standing under the moon, not a corpse puppet reeking of decay.

"Is this stunning? This is one of my finest masterpieces, the Shadow Assassin Oboro under the Moon."

"She is also one of my personal bodyguards."

"You must be very curious as to why Oboro is like a living person. It's because I turned her into a corpse puppet when she was still alive."

"I discovered that this method can fully unleash her potential."

"Even all of her pet beasts were refined into parts of a corpse puppet by me."

"The ornaments in her hair were the bones of her pet, and the clothes she wore were the fur of her pet."

"Even the slender bone sword in her hand was made from the spine of her Shadow Wolf."

"Her shadow wolf was still alive at that time. It howled for a long time before dying, and I also separated the wolf's soul and attached it to the bone sword."

"This way, the Shadow Wolf can once again protect her pet master."

The Corpse Whisperer laughed loudly again, his murky eyes gesturing at Zhang Lingxue's body.

“A work of art as perfect as you should have your pet's wings stripped off and stuck onto your butterfly's back.”

"You don't seem to have any equipment-type beasts. That's alright. I can extract the tendons from your pet beast and make a butterfly bow."

"How about I call you Butterfly Beauty then?"

The Corpse Whisperer is devising a plan to turn Zhang Lingxue into a corpse puppet.

He seemed completely unafraid that Zhang Lingxue's pet beast was staring at him with angry eyes.

They continued to plan things in their own way.

"is it?"

Zhang Lingxue raised an eyebrow.

"I am Xinyuehu, one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, and a seventh-tier pet master."

"You are not enough to make me submit."

"You foolish thief who desecrates the spirits of heroes, accept my punishment!"

"Go, Poison Dragon Butterfly, use Poison Breathing."

The Poison Dragon Butterfly's enormous compound eyes stared intently at the Corpse Whisperer. Just the Corpse Whisperer's blasphemous words to Zhang Lingxue were enough for the Poison Dragon Butterfly to tear the Corpse Whisperer to pieces.

"Go forth, Oboro, let me admire your heroic figure under the moonlight."

Long remained expressionless; she was merely a puppet now.

Ye Bai used his True Sight Eye to see the black lines connecting the puppet, which extended from the Corpse Whisperer's fingers.

It seems that the Corpse Whisperer himself is in charge, manipulating Oboro.

Oboro is like a character in a game, while the Corpse Whisperer is the player who controls that character.

This is much more advanced than simply using human-machine interaction.

"Come on, let's get even more excited."

"Shadow Charged Sword, Butterfly Beauty, come to my bowl!"

Oboro raised the longsword in his hand, assuming a charging stance.

She thrust forward with great force, and a sound of air being torn apart rang out.

A black sword arc, tens of meters long, appeared.

The arc of light spread out in mid-air, dispersing into fragments only the thickness of a thumb, which flew towards the Poison Dragon Butterfly like a rain of pear blossoms.

The Poison Dragon Butterfly calmly flapped its wings, and purple scales scattered from them.

The scales emitted a dreamlike purple hue, spreading out in mid-air to form a thick purple mist.

The black arc of light plunged into the thick purple fog and vanished instantly.

This surprised the Corpse Whisperer greatly.

He touched his chin.

What is the purpose of this dense fog?

"Interesting, but I still have time."

"One more time, Oboro, thrust your longsword."

Dark energy gathered once more within the longsword, and she thrust it fiercely into the sky.

A black sword arc, even larger than before, appeared.

The arc of light shot straight into the thick purple fog, seemingly trying to split it in two.

However, the moment the black arc of light collided with the thick purple fog, a hissing sound came from the air.

The black arc of light melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, its volume rapidly shrinking.

When it got close to the Poison Dragon Butterfly, the black arc of light was only the size of a thumbnail and was blown away by the gusts of wind stirred up by the Poison Dragon Butterfly.

"Is this thick purple fog corrosive?"

"Your beast has already formed a domain so early?"

"Areas with corrosive properties?"

The knowledgeable Corpse Whisperer noticed something amiss immediately.

Zhang Lingxue smiled without saying a word and did not reply to the Corpse Whisperer.

"However, even if you manage to condense a domain, so what? It won't last long unless you reach the eighth rank."

"If you were an eighth-tier pet master, I would turn around and leave without saying a word."

"You're only at the seventh rank now, the same rank as me. I still have many seventh-rank corpse puppets at my disposal. Little girl, what do you think you have to fight me with!"

"You'd better obediently let me turn you into a butterfly beauty."

The Corpse Whisperer spoke with extreme ferocity, his already insane eyes now showing a hint of ruthlessness.

"Your pet is a seventh-tier light-attribute pet, and the corpse puppet I created is also a seventh-tier pet."

"Although light and darkness are not opposites, when the dark attribute is strong enough, it can suppress the light attribute."

The Poison Dragon Butterfly's enormous compound eyes stared intently at the Corpse Whisperer; its head was shaped like a dragon.

A melodious dragon roar emanated from its mouth, and thick, blood-red fog appeared in the Heroes' Cemetery at some unknown time.

The Corpse Whisperer's attention was focused on the battle, and the surroundings were dark. Furthermore, the thick fog didn't emit any bloody scent, so the Corpse Whisperer hadn't yet detected anything amiss. The Myriad Blood Gu Butterfly appeared silently, releasing a large number of blood gu.

Blood Gu can enter a person's body through the nasal cavity, mouth, etc., and thus reside in the person's body.

As for strange beasts like corpse puppets, they naturally wouldn't feel anything from the invasion of the blood gu.

The thick, blood-red fog surged directly into the corpse puppet's body.

Unfortunately, the corpse puppet did not have blood inside, otherwise the blood gu could have spread throughout the corpse puppet's entire body instantly through the blood.

Ye Bai watched as Lei Jian, Li Qinglei, and Da Hui were locked in a life-or-death struggle.

Lei Jian had already sustained numerous wounds, but these wounds were quickly enveloped by the black aura, transforming into black threads that wrapped around Li Qinglei's body.

This is what makes the Corpse Puppet unique: once transformed into a Corpse Puppet, it will instantly heal even if it is injured during battle.

Lei Jian fought with increasing ferocity, lightning crackling around his sword, radiating a deafening pressure.

The raging lightning surged forth like a dragon emerging from the sea, but just as it was about to strike Big Gray, the lightning dragon let out a mournful cry, and its body scattered.

Big Grey's lightning armor and Thor's Axe absorbed all of the violent lightning.

Thor's Eye is being slowly repaired.

Ye Bai felt that he had found a way to deal with the Thunderbird's attack.

He could easily use the power of Thor's Eye to draw upon hundreds of millions of volts of electricity from lightning.

I wonder if such a violent current can repair Thor's Eye and restore Thor's Axe to its true form.

The Sunflower King was already lying in ambush nearby, waiting for Ye Bai's command.

Once Ye Bai issues the order to attack, the Sunflower King will turn the surrounding area into a paradise of light.

In this holy light, all the dark-type pets' bodies seemed to be corroded by strong acid, eventually turning to ashes.

This is the hidden trick Ye Bai left behind.

The moon was shrouded in thick, dark clouds, and streaks of violent lightning danced in the air, producing deafening thunderclaps.

Ye Bai looked up at the sky. It seemed that the Thunderbird could no longer hold back and was about to launch a full-scale attack.

Hopefully, the Nantianmen fortress can withstand this offensive.

It seems the Corpse Whisperers aren't going to end this battle easily.

Lightning flashed in the sky above the Nantianmen Fortress.

The Thunderbirds gathered together, their bodies radiating golden arcs of electricity.

The entire sky was suddenly illuminated.

The electric current fell from the sky with overwhelming force, transforming into a raging thunder dragon.

The protective shield of the Nantianmen Fortress had already been activated.

Jiao Mujiao secretly felt a chill run down his spine. Even he didn't know if the protective shield could withstand the Thunder Bird's ferocious attack.

The Thunder Dragon fell from the sky and slammed heavily onto the protective shield.

The protective shield shook violently, and the entire Nantianmen Fortress trembled.

Jiao Mujiao and the others felt like a small boat in a stormy night, struggling to stay afloat.

The protective shield dimmed several times, and just when it seemed about to collapse, it was restored as energy was replenished.

The thunder dragon lasted for a long time before it completely dissipated.

Many Thunderbirds released the electrical current within their bodies and it took them a while to recover.

Soon, Jiaomujiao learned about the damage to the South Heavenly Gate caused by the attack.

He sighed inwardly, having already prepared himself for the worst.

This is just the first wave of attacks. Judging from the Thunderbirds' posture, they should be able to launch dozens more attacks.

Jiao Mujiao expressed doubts about whether the Nantianmen Fortress could hold out.

But he couldn't say it out loud. He had to believe that the Nantianmen Fortress could hold out. If he, as the commander, were to despair, it would severely damage morale.

"Lord Jiaomujiao, the overall damage to Nantianmen in this attack was not significant. Apart from a section of earthen wall collapsing due to the violent tremors, the rest of the area was undamaged."

"However, there has been a minor issue with our stockpile of thunderstones."

Upon hearing this, Jiao Mujiao's eyes widened immediately; the Thunder Stone was a crucial element.

This matter concerns the defense of the entire South Heavenly Gate and cannot be compromised.

"What's wrong with the Thunderstone? Don't dawdle, report it now!" Jiao Mujiao said sternly.

"This time the Thunderstone charging was very successful, but we can only charge fifty Thunderstones at a time."

"Currently, our Nantianmen Fortress only has a total of one thousand thunderstones stored. If the attack intensity continues, we estimate that we won't be able to hold out for long before the protective shield can't withstand the thunderbirds' attacks and is breached by lightning," the subordinate reported.

Upon hearing this report, Jiao Mujiao also looked troubled. Manufacturing a thunderstone was not so simple; it involved many processes and required a large amount of rare resources.

Otherwise, there wouldn't only be a thousand thunderstones in the Nantianmen Fortress.

Han Yan and Zhang Dashan came in after hearing the news.

"Don't worry, in addition to Thunderstone, we also have an underground energy storage device that can withstand hundreds of millions of volts of current."

Han Yan said confidently.

However, he did not expect that a single attack from the Thunderbird would almost destroy the protective shield.

"There's no time to manufacture Thunderstone now, but we can take advantage of the Thunderbird's exhaustion and store it in the secret realm."

"The Imperial Capital Research Institute has developed a lure that can attract Thunderbirds, and the specific formula has been sent over."

"As long as we follow this recipe and make the bait, the Thunderbird will naturally enter the secret realm obediently."

"Then we can begin our experiments on secretly taming the Thunderbirds."

"If we can hold on a little longer, victory is just around the corner."

"In order to attract more exotic beasts, we have specially cleared out several large secret realm spaces. We will try our best to bring these exotic beasts in."

"This will minimize casualties."

Han Yan brought good news.

The Nantianmen Fortress also has a dedicated team of breeders.

So the breeder team worked overtime to develop a palm-sized, blue-purple lure according to the formula.

The lure was ethereal, carrying a faint arc of electricity.

Jiaomu Jiao gave a wink to the pet master beside him, who immediately released a thunder wolf.

Upon seeing the bait, the Thunder Wolf went berserk.

It pounced on the bait like a madman, swallowing it whole. It was so fast that even the Thunder Wolf's pet trainer couldn't stop it.

After the thunder wolf ate the bait, it could no longer stand upright on all four legs and collapsed to the ground, revealing a very intoxicated expression.

At the same time, Thunder Wolf also emitted a strong, exotic fragrance.

"This recipe contains Drunken God Stone, which is said to be a gemstone that even the gods are obsessed with, as well as fragments of Thunder Crystal."

Once one of the beasts swallows the bait, its body will emit a strong fragrance, attracting more beasts.

Jiaomujiao thought this bait would definitely attract many thunderbirds.

Once the Thunderbirds are lured into the secret realm, it will definitely reduce a lot of pressure on the South Heavenly Gate Fortress.
