Under One Person: The Puppet Immortal in the Tang Sect

What he needs is battle, a life-or-death struggle, and sacrifices that can satisfy Hirumaru.

Instead of cleaning up this endless metal waste.

When the sixtieth puppet lunged at him, Eita stopped wielding his sword.

He stopped and took a deep breath.

The red aura around him suddenly expanded, increasing from three feet thick to ten feet.

The aura felt like a tangible flame churning, with faint blood-red patterns flowing within.

Ground debris was lifted up by the blast wave and suspended in mid-air.

"roll!"

Eita let out a roar.

The red aura swept forward like a tsunami, causing rock walls to peel away and the ground to crack in its wake.

He once used this move to send three Putuo disciples flying in the Black Pine Forest. Now, he unleashed its full power, intending to wipe out all the puppets around him.

The shockwave struck the group of puppets.

The first row of Shadow Spiders were thrown away by the impact, but did not disintegrate as expected.

They adjust their posture in mid-air, inserting their eight segments into the ground to stabilize themselves.

The second row of puppet soldier bees flapped their thin wings, withstanding the impact of the air blast, and their forward speed only decreased slightly.

More importantly, all the puppets simultaneously emitted a pale blue glow.

The light was extremely faint, like a thin mist covering the puppet's shell.

When the red aura touches the blue light, it's like water flowing into a rock, automatically splitting to both sides.

The violence, murderous intent, and spiritual erosion felt in the air are completely ineffective against blue light.

Eita's pupils contracted.

He had never seen anything like this before.

The powerful red aura of the demon sword Hirumaru is the result of generations of killing by its wielders.

It can corrupt the enemy's mind and break down their defenses, so it should be effective against puppets as well.

However, the pale blue light completely ignored the red aura.

That wasn't even resistance; it was a complete disregard, penetrating the Qi's defenses.

The puppet horde continued its advance.

Eita's eyes darkened, and he swung his sword again.

The blade sliced ​​through a Shadow Spider, but the feel was off.

Previously, cutting the puppet was as easy as cutting tofu, but now the blade encountered resistance.

Although it can still be severed, the amount of Qi consumed has increased by 10%.

The pale blue light is at work.

By the time he realized this, the puppets had already surrounded him.

Twelve shadow spiders attacked from the front, eight climbed down the left rock wall, and six approached from the right.

Countless puppet soldier bees hovered in the air, completely ignoring friendly forces, and directly launched a barrage of poison needles to suppress them.

Eita was forced to take a half step back.

This half-step allowed the puppet horde to seize the rhythm.

They no longer charged blindly, but began to cooperate.

The shadow spider attacked with its limbs, forcing Eita to parry.

The puppet soldier bees seized the opportunity to swoop down, aiming their poisonous stingers at the gaps in the joints.

Although it couldn't actually hurt Eita, it was enough to disrupt his movements.

He was held up.

Each strike kills one or two puppets, but new ones always take their place.

The pale blue light rendered his qi senses ineffective, leaving him to rely solely on his swordsmanship.

The puppets, tireless and fearless of death, launched a relentless barrage of attacks.

For the first time, Eita felt frustrated during a battle.

While he was entangled, the balance of power on other battlefields was disrupted.

The Night Demon pounced on Kimura Okataro.

Kimura has an injury to his right leg, which makes it difficult for him to move around.

A swarm of black snakes emerged from his sleeve, attempting to stop him.

The Night Slayer tore through the snakes with its claws, splattering venom onto their metal shells with a sizzling sound, but failing to corrode them.

It approached Kimura, its claw reaching for his heart.

Kimura retreated hastily, throwing out three shuriken at the same time.

The shuriken struck Night Demon in the shoulder, embedding itself half an inch, but failed to stop his movements.

The sharp claws grazed Kimura's left ribs, tearing open three bloody gashes.

He groaned and fell to the ground, rolling away to avoid further pursuit.

Xu Duo attempted to play the shakuhachi to distract the Night Demon.

But the terror hovered above his head, and an invisible sound wave pressed down.

The two sound waves clashed, suppressing the sound of Xu Duo's shakuhachi.

His face turned pale, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, forcing him to stop playing.

Homer's modified form of the wolf.

Sparks flew as the metal skin clashed with the alloy claws.

Homer threw a punch at the wolf's face, but the wolf neither dodged nor avoided it, and instead threw a punch of its own.

Their fists collided, creating a shockwave.

Homer took a step back, the wolf took three steps back, but immediately pounced again.

Homer's alchemy granted him defense and strength, but the wolf's modified form completely ignored pain, attacking without any defense.

After the three collisions, Homer discovered that his metallic skin had developed tiny cracks.

The butterfly unleashes an explosion of butterflies in an attempt to provide support to various locations.

But Xia's modified body moved.

Just as Butterfly was about to summon more butterflies to support the other ten demons, she suddenly felt an itch on her neck and quickly bent down.

Suddenly, a long sword appeared to pierce through the void beside him, which had been empty before.

Butterfly narrowly dodged, the sword's edge grazing her right shoulder and taking away a piece of her clothing.

As they passed each other, Butterfly caught a glimpse of Xia's pretty face peeking out from under the invisibility cloak, her eyes filled with nothing but icy killing intent.

The butterfly could only retreat quickly, while simultaneously releasing ten butterflies to surround Xia.

The butterfly exploded, and flames engulfed the area.

But Xia revealed part of her figure from the other side of the flames, her cloak billowing out, her true form unharmed.

Then the rosy clouds vanished into thin air once more, leaving only the sound of a sword slicing through the air.

Ayun's mummified puppet faces off against the Taotie.

The mummified corpse inserted its five fingers into the Taotie's abdomen, but failed to penetrate.

Taotie grabbed the mummified corpse's arms with both hands and unleashed tremendous force.

The mummified puppet's arm joints creaked under the strain, and cracks appeared on the surface.

Ah Yun's true form was hiding in the distance, her face grim.

Her puppets are adept at dealing with flesh and blood, but have limited effectiveness against these inhuman monsters.

Fenrir wolves raced through the mountain path, their carapaces firing in rapid succession.

Three members of the Higanbana ninja clan attempted to form hand seals for defense, but the flying shuttle easily pierced through their bodies, pinning them firmly to the ground.

On both sides of the rock wall, the combined attack of the puppet soldier bees and the shadow spiders began.

The swarm of soldier bees swooped down, raining down their poisonous stingers.

The surviving Higanbana ninja could only parry with their swords, but there were too many poison needles.

One person was needled in the shoulder, but the needle did not inject venom; instead, it injected a pale blue aura.

His body stiffened, and his movements slowed by a beat.

The next instant, three arrows shot by the Shadow Spider pierced his chest and abdomen.

Another person attempted to climb the rock face to escape the ground battlefield.

The lurking spider crawled down from above, its eight segments thrusting down like spears.

He swung his knife and cut off two of them, but the remaining six pierced his limbs and torso, still pinning him to the rock wall.

The swarm of soldier bees immediately covered his body.

Of the fifteen Hira ninja who were stationed outside the mountain stream, only seven remained.

They stood back to back, their short swords and daggers forming a net.

But the soldier bees attacked from all angles, while the shadow spiders moved and shot along the rock wall.

One man was shot in the leg and knelt down, while the stinger of a soldier bee pierced the back of his neck.

Another person tried to break through, but was pounced on from different directions by three shadow spiders, whose limbs pierced his throat.

In the end, only three people managed to break through the encirclement and flee back to the center of the ravine in a sorry state.
