Under One Person: The Puppet Immortal in the Tang Sect

At the same time, Cui Ming and Zuo Ruotong exchanged a glance.

"Master Zuo, to be on the safe side, let's attack together and finish this quickly. If his techniques are strange, we can help each other out."

Zuo Ruotong nodded slowly, his hunched body straightening slightly, and a pure white aura, as condensed as a substance, slowly rose from his withered body.

Although it is no longer as vast as the sea as yesterday, it is more refined and restrained, subtly revealing a solemn air of returning to simplicity.

A white aura spread out, concealing his figure within it.

Cui Ming no longer held back and snapped his fingers.

"Then, let's clear a path first!"

Before the words were finished—

hum!hum!hum!hum!

A series of deep, dense mechanical sounds suddenly rang out from the buildings at the Trinity Gate on the mountaintop!

Amidst the astonished gazes of everyone on and off the platform, the roofs, walls, and even some of the beams and pillars of those once antique palaces and pavilions with their flying eaves and brackets began to flip and deform as if they were alive!

Tiles slipped and were reassembled, wood shifted and fitted together, and bricks flipped over to reveal the hidden metal structure.

In just a few breaths, the appearance of the entire Sanyi Gate main building complex has been completely changed!

Countless menacing crossbows gleaming with a cold metallic light, and even more bizarrely shaped cylindrical launching devices, protruded from the tops, windows, and corners of various buildings.

In an instant, the entire Trinity Gate transformed into a steel behemoth armed to the teeth!

A chilling killing intent gradually spread as the Trinity Gate's architecture transformed into a war machine, somewhat suppressing the blood and death emanating from the platform.

Zuo Ruotong's eyelids twitched. Even with his extensive experience, he was taken aback by Cui Ming's grand gesture of "turning the entire mountain gate into a war machine."

Moreover, when exactly did Cui Ming turn the entire Sanyi Sect into his war behemoth?

This is probably no longer a simple mechanical art, but a creation method that is almost earth-shattering!

"put."

Cui Ming's mind raced, and he spoke calmly.

next moment--

Swish swish swish! ! ! !

It was like countless fist-sized hailstones suddenly falling in June, or like the gates of hell suddenly opening!

Countless black dots spewed out from those menacing metal launch ports on the mountaintop!

Those were no ordinary arrows. Each arrow shaft was as thick as a child's arm, the arrowhead was triangular pyramidal, and it shimmered with an ominous blue or dark red luster. The tail end had a stabilizer for flight.

The sharp, piercing sound of air being torn apart blended into a chilling death shriek!

Arrow rain!

A deluge of steel arrows rained down from above!

Its coverage area was so wide that it almost covered the entire platform and the surrounding area of ​​several dozen feet.

To ensure lethality, Cui Ming even expended his true qi, attaching his unique qi, which contained "radiation" properties, to most of the specially made arrows.

These arrows not only have amazing penetrating power, but once they hit, the attached radiant energy will continuously erode the victim's body and meridians, making them extremely vicious.

Faced with this sudden and catastrophic disaster, the Japanese soldiers on the platform were horrified!

"Defense! Quickly!"

"Summon the shikigami!"

The Onmyoji leader's incantation was interrupted. He roared hoarsely and desperately shrank back towards the center of the defensive circle.

The stone giant shikigami roared (if it could make a sound), spreading its rocky arms, trying to use its massive body to block as many arrows as possible for its master.

Puff puff puff!

A series of impacts, as dense as rain, rang out.

The specially made armor-piercing arrows easily tore through the body of the coyote shikigami and embedded themselves into the rocky body of the stone giant, penetrating more than a foot deep!

The radiant true energy attached to it clashed violently with the energy of the shikigami, emitting a hissing, corrosive sound.

The stone giant's body trembled violently, large cracks appeared on the rock surface, and its movements became sluggish.

Those vengeful spirits were highly resistant to physical attacks, but the radiation energy attached to the arrows was equally effective against them. The vengeful spirits that were hit twisted and faded, emitting a silent shriek.

Even worse off were the ronin and ninja.

Their paper-thin armor and hastily erected qi appeared so fragile under the dense and powerful rain of arrows.

The arrow pierced through the armor, went through the body, and sprayed out bursts of blood.

Screams, groans, and the splattering sound of flesh being pierced instantly filled the platform.

After a volley of arrows, the platform was a complete mess.

The stone giant shikigami was riddled with arrows, resembling a hedgehog. Its movements were stiff and slow, and its rocky body was covered in cracks.

The coyote shikigami was riddled with holes from the arrows, and although it was still wriggling and repairing itself, the process was much slower.

The number of vengeful spirits has noticeably decreased.

Of the original seven or eight ronin and ninja guards, only three remain standing, each riddled with arrows, bleeding profusely, and barely breathing.

Even among the heavily protected Onmyoji, two were injured by stray arrows. One was hit in the shoulder, and the other suffered a graze to the leg. Although not fatal, the injuries disrupted their spellcasting rhythm, and their faces turned even paler.

Only the Onmyoji leader, because he was hiding in the very center and was shielded by the stone giant and other shikigami, was fortunate enough to escape unharmed.

But his eyes were bloodshot, filled with shock and anger, and even more so with an almost insane obsession.

He stared intently at the dark red marks on the platform beneath his feet, which had become even more conspicuous due to the blood and the impact of the recent rain of arrows, and were even beginning to meander and connect on their own.

"Not enough...just a little bit more...just a little bit more!"

He muttered to himself, then suddenly bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood mixed with saliva onto the bat-shaped fan in his hand.

The once exquisite bat fan was instantly stained red, exuding a strong aura of blood and evil.

He slammed the blood-red fan into the ground beneath his feet, embedding it at a point where the dark red marks converged.

"With blood as a sacrifice, I summon the spirits of those who died unjustly! Open the gates of the underworld!"

More rapid and eerie incantations poured from his mouth, his voice hoarse, yet carrying a chilling and sinister power.

On the platform floor, those dark red marks suddenly flashed with a blinding blood-red light!

The intense aura of death, resentment, and blood seemed to find an outlet, rising from every inch of the platform and twisting and tangling in the air to form a slowly rotating dark red vortex.

At the center of the vortex was the spot where the Onmyoji leader had planted the blood fan.

A cold wind suddenly rose, howling and wailing, as if mixed with the cries and wails of countless dead souls.

The surrounding temperature dropped sharply, and a thin layer of white frost even condensed on the platform.

A chilling, eerie aura, seemingly connected to the netherworld, spread out.

At the mountaintop, Cui Ming's eyes narrowed.

"really……"

He whispered something, then spoke coldly through the communication device.

"Nameless, attack the spellcaster with all your might! Immortal Master Zuo, let's go!"

Before he finished speaking, he and Zuo Ruotong had already disappeared from the main hall on the mountaintop.

The next moment, the two appeared at the edge of the platform as if they had teleported.

With a light step, Cui Ming moved like a ghost, rushing straight towards the Yin-Yang Master leader at the center of the blood-red vortex.

Zuo Ruotong was a step slower, but as soon as she took a step, pure white Qi lotuses bloomed beneath her feet. Her speed was not slow either, closely following Cui Ming, with her target being the blood fan stuck in the ground.

At the same time, the puppet troops led by the nameless man aimed all their crossbows and jet nozzles at the blood-red vortex and pulled the triggers!

More dense arrows, fire, and unknown energy beams, like a storm, bombarded the area shrouded in eerie blood light!

The final battle erupts instantly!

Chapter 233 The Yellow Springs Array

The overwhelming rain of specially made arrows, though not completely destroying the shikigami, exposed that they were not truly invincible.

While these shikigami are indeed composed of energy, their core is attached to specific talismans of the Onmyoji (Japanese demon shamans).

Ordinary sword strikes and arrow piercings are indeed difficult to shake its fundamental nature; at most, they can shatter part of its form, which the controller can repair by consuming Qi.

However, the arrows that Cui Ming ordered to be fired were not only made of special materials, but also had amazing penetrating power.

More importantly, most of the arrows were imbued with two abilities that were very characteristic of Cui Ming.

That is the mutated radiation true qi and the power of alchemy.

Once these arrows pierced deep into the shikigami's body, the situation changed drastically.

The radiated true energy is like a maggot that gnaws at the bone, ignoring the energy protection on the surface of the shikigami and directly penetrating and eroding its internal structure.

The soil and withered vines at the point where the coyote shikigami was shot quickly lost their luster and became gray and brittle.

The edges of the cracks on the rocky shell of the stone giant were tinged with an abnormal dark blue, and the stains continued to spread deeper into the stone.

Once the vengeful spirit's translucent body is grazed or pierced by an arrow imbued with radiant true energy, the part that is touched will twist violently.

The vengeful spirit's movements even paused briefly, revealing the faint, illusory image of the talisman within.

Cui Ming's mutated Dan Shi power was even more bizarre.

It originally possessed strong penetrability, and after mutation, it can subtly modify cognition.

Thus, a bizarre and deadly scene unfolded on the battlefield.

An extremely powerful, armor-piercing arrow accidentally struck a spot in the chest of the Earth Wolf Shikigami.

The radiant energy attached to the arrow erupted instantly, corroding the soil and energy body in that area, creating a hole the size of a bowl.

Deep inside the hole, a corner of a dark yellow talisman was visible.

That was the core spell for summoning and controlling the hyena.
