Under One Person: The Puppet Immortal in the Tang Sect

A loudspeaker blared, and the legs of the numerous cyborgs all merged into the soil.

It was actually assembled from the main body of the Oni-devourer into the form of a mecha warrior.

The bodies of six or seven cyborgs formed the outer shell and components that protected Oni-don.

At the same time, Ghost Devourer emitted a large number of red threads, directly connecting all the modified humans and linking the entire formation to Ghost Devourer.

boom!

The lightning bolt struck the giant mouth of the demon head-on, unleashing a dazzling burst of light.

The immense impact propelled the mecha, primarily composed of Oni-devourer, outwards, leaving two deep furrows beneath its feet.

But this dazzling white light eventually dimmed slowly inside Oni-don's mouth and finally dissipated.

The only price Oni-swallow paid was a few cracks appearing on his mecha.

The cyborg's injuries were rapidly healed by the massive amount of energy provided by the Oni-swallower.

On the other hand, let's look at the other side.

The Thunder Beast was panting heavily, its face pale.

This move consumed most of his power, but it not only failed to stop Ghost Devourer from continuing to absorb their Qi, it also forced Ghost Devourer to improve, causing his Qi to drain even faster.

At this moment, the Qi in his body is less than 30%.

Thunder Beast stared blankly at the demon-like Ghost Devourer.

He was swaying and about to fall over.

"Lord Thunder Beast!"

The members behind him screamed and rushed over to support him.

Thunder Beast pushed them aside and stared intently at Ghost Devourer.

Ghost Devourer has used that energy to repair all the damaged cyborgs.

Moreover, after absorbing the lightning bolt from the Thunder Beast, the entire formation, as well as the Ghost Devourer and the modified humans, seemed to have become even more powerful.

With the power supplied by the Ghost Devourer, the entire mech became increasingly bizarre.

"Oni-don, are you really going to kill us?"

The Thunder Beast hissed.

"We are not the enemy!"

After a moment of silence, Gui Tun slowly spoke.

"I know."

Thunder Beast was taken aback: "Then why are you still..."

Ghost Devourer raised his hand to interrupt him.

“I know you are not our enemies, but this is not something I can decide. The Lord wants to see you.”

Thunder Beast's heart stirred.

"Yamashita Akira?"

Gui Tun continued.

"The power that the Lord possesses can sever our connection with the Holy Pool. I am no longer under the control of the Great God."

But not everyone can see the Lord; you have now proven yourselves.

Thunder Beast remained silent for a long time before raising its head and looking at Ghost Devourer.

"Can your master really help us?"

Gui Tun nodded, his eyes filled with loyalty.

"I am the irrefutable proof!"

Chapter 276 The Fear Exclusively for Monsters

Deep within the cave, a faint blue light flowed through the air like water.

Within an array, Kuang Gu was suspended in mid-air, his entire body enveloped in a ghostly blue light.

A gash was opened in his chest, and several hidden threads carrying the power of Dan Shi probed into it.

The power of Dan Shi protected Kuang Gu's flesh and blood, preventing even a single drop of blood from flowing from the seemingly terrifying wound on his chest.

Those hidden lines stretched all the way to the top of the formation, onto the dozens of mechanical arms that were constantly waving.

At this moment, Cui Ming was standing outside the magic array that affected gravity.

Countless fine, hair-like invisible lines extended from the slender, long fingertips of Cui Ming's hands.

As he moved his hands, he manipulated the dozens of mechanical arms to perform precise operations.

Meanwhile, Bai Lian maintained the gravity array, allowing Kuang Gu to float steadily.

At the same time, the array must be controlled to isolate all bacteria and prevent wound infection.

This job was no easy task, but he did it meticulously.

The six mechanical arms behind him kept adjusting the formation to ensure that everything was under control.

Cui Ming also finished all the preliminary work, and a large amount of Dan Shi power entered Kuang Gu's body through the hidden thread and spread throughout his body.

The next step is the most crucial.

Cui Ming focused all his energy on the dermis of the Mad Bone, because he planned to inscribe a layer of strengthening runes on the dermis of the Mad Bone.

It is important to know that human skin has three main layers: the epidermis, the dermis, and the subcutaneous tissue.

The epidermis is dead skin, while the dermis is living skin.

The real blood vessels, nerves, sweat glands, and hair follicles are all rooted in the dermis.

Inscribing runes on this layer is ten thousand times more difficult than inscribing them on bone.

Because genuine leather is alive.

It will heal, it will reject, it will become inflamed.

Especially those born with extraordinary abilities like Kyokotsu, whose self-healing capacity is ridiculously strong.

The engraved runes can be easily erased by the runes' powerful regenerative abilities if not handled carefully.

Moreover, the dermis is filled with many blood vessels and nerves, and carelessness can easily cause severe bleeding or permanent damage.

Previously, Cui Ming had spent a lot of time studying skin structure.

With the help of many self-sacrificing members of the Curse Binding Society, considerable progress has been made.

As for the cost...

It's just that there are a few more human puppets that have lost the ability to feel pain.

Now, Cui Ming's Dan Shi power is able to perform some subtle manipulations.

For example, on the skin of the Mad Bone, countless extremely tiny micro-carving knives were transformed.

Only under such conditions could Cui Ming perform the enhancement surgery on Kuang Gu.

However, with Cui Ming's current cultivation level, he would not have been able to complete this subtle operation.

Fortunately, Cui Ming has now mastered the Reverse Life Triple Technique, and through continuous cultivation day and night, he has advanced to the peak of the first level. His control over his physical body has now reached a level of subtlety.

At this moment, the power of the pills transformed into countless tiny carving knives, which seemed to be held and wielded by Cui Ming himself, slowly moving across the dermis of the Mad Bone.

Each strike, protected by the power of Dan Shi, avoided blood vessels and nerves, precisely carving out complex runes.

These runes were all developed and designed by Cui Ming and Bai Lian together.

After fully combining Cui Ming's personal characteristics and all his experience in developing and modifying humans in the island nation, he created the best rune that was most suitable for the physique of the Japanese soldiers.

You asked what Cui Ming's personal characteristics are?

That is naturally the inescapable power of Dan Shi and the indestructible true Qi of radiation.

However, aside from Cui Ming himself, anyone else who uses the Radiation True Qi will face certain death.

Therefore, this rune can only be based on the power of Dan Shi to further enhance the strangeness of the Mad Bone.

The runes now engraved on the bodies of various monster warriors will activate the runes to amplify the power of Dan Shi when these monsters use their abilities, giving them a layer of bewitching power.

This effect can be particularly effective on people with weak willpower.

This usually causes the opponent to lose control on the spot, become unable to move, and be slaughtered by the monsters.

After witnessing this effect, Oni-dono and other self-aware yokai came to a common understanding.

That is the legendary special power that only monsters can possess—fear!

This also strengthened the faith of these monster warriors in Cui Ming.

They believe that Cui Ming is the savior of all monsters sent down from heaven to save them!

From then on, Cui Ming filled a gap in his monster warriors' abilities.

This further solidified its position in their minds and strengthened its control over them.

Because once these runes are inscribed, they will continuously release a faint power of alchemical energy, which will resonate with the demons' own Qi, enhancing their control over their own abilities. At the same time, they will further brainwash them deep into their consciousness, making them more loyal to Cui Ming.

Kyokotsu is now caught in this pattern, dealing with this guy who granted him clarity of mind, helped him increase his strength, and was even willing to grant his wishes…

Do not!

It is the Lord!

Such righteousness! A wise ruler willing to seek peace and stability for us demons is truly rare!

A flash of blue light appeared deep within Kyokotsu's eyes.

This is a master I would follow for a lifetime, even more than Lord Hagoromo Gitsune!

Kyokotsu made up his mind to help the Lord accomplish the great cause from now on!

After all, even Lord Hagoromo Gitsune probably hopes to see such a magnificent scene of yokai!
