Demonic Demoness Training Project

Although Lu Li knew that the two elite factions would come, he did not expect to run into them here.

Why don't we try to see if we can turn the puppet under the other side against him?

Or perhaps, he could directly activate the uranium pill transformation and hang this girl up and beat her?

Lu Li thought about it again and felt it was not appropriate. He had gone alone this time and had not brought Hong Xian and the others with him. He had been extremely careful about his identity and had created countless aliases, so there should be no risk of him being exposed.

The area where Lu Li is now is close to the deepest part of the Boundless Tribulation, infinitely close to where the Boundless Blessing Return to the Void Seal fell. The concentration of the Boundless Tribulation here is so high that even the Azure Netherworld Painted Skin has some difficulty resisting it.

The cultivators who can reach this place are all formidable figures. The spiritual plants that can grow here and the demonic beasts that inhabit this place are all, without exception, extremely special and powerful beings that have adapted to countless eons.

This has both advantages and disadvantages for Lu Li. The advantage is that he can accumulate immeasurable tribulations faster. He used to be able to attempt a breakthrough once every three days, but now it has become once every two days.

The downside is that if he transforms through the Reversed Heavenly Dipper Instrument and briefly breaks through to the Creation Realm, he will have to endure the erosion of an extremely high concentration of Boundless Tribulation.

Therefore, Lu Li was very careful and avoided using uranium pills whenever possible.

If Xie Lingyin hadn't come, Lu Li had planned to set up bait to lure the Ghost-Faced Flower King to the outer perimeter, and then use the Uranium Pill to kill him.

Now that Xie Lingyin has arrived, it would be ideal if we could use her power to kill this Ghost-Faced Flower King without using any uranium pills.

Then, after the matter is settled, Lu Li will receive a share of the spiritual materials, since he doesn't want the entire Ghost Face Flower King.

With such a large Ghost Face Flower, he only needs to extract the juice from two or three petals to refine the Unseen Flower.

However, if the other party harbors malicious intentions, he can use the uranium pill to transform and, depending on the situation, hang the little girl up and beat her, then steal her puppet.

Well, either way, it's a win-win situation.

Lu Li noticed that not all of the cultivators behind this little girl were disciples of the White Moon Palace; the other half were family members or independent cultivators, but all of them were at the Open Source Realm.

It was Xie Lingyin who spearheaded this group of people to cooperate temporarily, but in reality, they might all have their own ulterior motives.

Then, Xie Lingyin took out several long-handled mechanical artifacts and handed them to the group.

"This object is called the Stone Amber Cage, a type of second-stage mechanical artifact. Later, you will place it around the valley and infuse it with spiritual power to form a Stone Amber Barrier to prevent this monster from escaping. Even if we are no match for it, we can use this mechanical artifact to temporarily trap it inside, making it easier for us to retreat."

"And you guys, stay on the perimeter and use ranged attacks to wear down the Ghost Face Flower. Focus on attacking its roots. This thing has twelve roots in total. Once a root is severed, it will lose its ability to move and regenerate."

Xie Lingyin made arrangements for everyone, and everyone agreed.

"Yes, we will obey the Holy Maiden's command."

Upon hearing the words "Holy Maiden," Lu Li shrank back, seemingly trying to hide something, and subconsciously felt that they were addressing him.

Lu Li was assigned to stand on the cliff, providing long-range support along with several other rogue cultivators. At this moment, one of the rogue cultivators smiled and sighed:

"These days, life isn't easy for independent cultivators."

"Those Tongxian Sect members have no martial ethics. It's one thing for them to rob us, but they've also broken their promise and even robbed the White Moon Palace."

"Yes, thanks to Her Majesty the Holy Maiden for taking us in. I was thinking that after we get out, we should go to the White Moon Palace to report for duty. Maybe we can even get a position as a steward."

Lu Li perked up his ears and listened silently. As the leader of the bad guys, he felt a little guilty. From the conversation among the crowd, he could tell that Xie Lingyin's reputation seemed to be surprisingly good.

Bringing this group of rogue cultivators along on the hunt might be partly due to a shortage of manpower, but it could also be an attempt to win them over.

With everyone ready, Xie Lingyin tapped her sister's round, metal belly and lifted it open, revealing a cockpit filled with various buttons and levers. Before Lu Li could get a good look, her sister's belly closed up again.

Seeing this, Lu Li raised an eyebrow and looked at the two of them with great interest.

Lu Li originally thought that the two were fighting separately, and if the older sister was no match, she only needed to shout "Help my little sister, my dear sister!" and then the younger sister would stand in front of her like a mad dog.

He had considered many possibilities, but he never expected that the puppet, who was his younger sister, was the type that could be controlled from within by a cultivator.

This is a case of sisters' minds working together as one.

This little saintess of the White Moon Palace has something special about her; no wonder she became a saintess.

Under Xie Lingyin's control, Xie Xiao leaped down from the top of the cliff and crashed down on Ghost Face's head like a boulder, slamming Ghost Face's large face to the ground.

Roar!

The Ghost-Faced Flower roared and howled, its voice sharp, and its vines suddenly attacked from the side, whipping Xie Xiao away.

Although Xie Xiao was burly, he was surprisingly agile. He landed on the stone wall with both feet, pushed off hard, and used the force to fly out like a cannonball again, punching Ghost Face Flower in the face with his backhand.

boom!

This move used the opponent's force against them, turning the tables and sending the demon-faced flower flying.

It's hard to imagine that such a smooth and fluid set of movements was not controlled by divine thought, but was accomplished through very traditional lever manipulation.

At this moment, an inner disciple of the White Moon Palace said somewhat smugly:

"Haha, fellow Daoist, there's no need to be surprised. When I first saw it, I was also a little incredulous. Even the elders in the sect have praised Her Majesty the Saintess for her skill in manipulating puppets."

"Hmm... However, there's something I don't understand. The puppet she controls seems to have a spirit, so why does she still have to operate it manually?"

"Any puppet in her hands can unleash its full power. It is said that in her early years, the two sisters encountered an accident, and her sister's soul was forever fixed in a puppet."

"Oh? They really are sisters."

"Yes."

Lu Li secretly rejoiced that he hadn't rashly used the Token of the Past, because it would have been ineffective. The spirit named Xie Xiao hadn't lost his memory at all and was willingly being manipulated; it wouldn't rebel with him.

"Alright, enough talk, it's time for us to get started."

As he spoke, the disciple pulled out a crossbow and aimed it at the Ghost-Faced Flower King.

Bang bang bang!

As a third-level demon beast, the Ghost-Faced Flower King's roots were as hard as a rock. Everyone used their supernatural powers to strike it, but they could only leave a few wounds and could not cut it off.

"Gentlemen, let's concentrate our efforts and break off its thinnest one first."

Lu Li nodded slightly, and also activated the Qi-Harmony Cauldron, using Xuanming Gang Qi to condense a milling cutter, which he then used to strike the roots of the Ghost-Faced Flower King.

hum!

Visual observation, breathing exercises, weapon disintegration, blunt knife technique, focused drilling, and progressive knife application!

The first milling cutter failed, but left a hole. The second milling cutter followed, milling a groove one foot wide and two feet deep into the outer skin that everyone had struggled to tear together.

While both are the same Stamping Technique, Lu Li replaced the first-stage Golden Spirit Core with a second-stage Golden Spirit Core and the Void Stone Powder with Profound Nether Crystal Powder, making its power incomparable to the past.

"This woman has some impressive skills!"

Xie Lingyin couldn't help but admire, and everyone seized the opportunity to launch another fierce attack on the groove that Lu Li had created.

But then a crisp snap was heard, and one of the roots broke off.

"Roar!"

The Ghost-Faced Flower roared in pain and turned to attack Lu Li and the others, but Xie Xiao grabbed one of its roots and pulled it back with all his might.

Ghost-faced Flower turned back, opened its blood-red maw, and angrily bit down on Xie Xiao's shoulder. Its mouthful of serrated teeth could cut through iron and steel. In one bite, it pierced through Xie Xiao's shoulder armor, and then with a fierce jerk, it bit off the entire arm.

The power of the third-stage demon beast was fully displayed; with just this one strike, it nearly bit off its entire left arm.

Clang!

At the same time, a folding saw blade suddenly popped out from his right arm and cleaved down on the ghost face plate in front of him. As the saw blade spun, it almost split the ghost face plate in two.

At the same time, Lu Li launched another killing move, and with the help of everyone, severed another root.

The ghost-faced flower cried out in pain and released its grip on the right arm. Xie Xiao rolled to the side, picked up the arm, and easily reattached it to himself.

It turns out that the arm was not bitten off, but rather the left arm was actively manipulated to detach from the body, creating an opening so that the user could seize the opportunity.

Without the slightest hesitation, Xie Xiaochong's right arm also transformed into a saw blade. Using both hands, he engaged in a fierce battle with the Ghost-Faced Flower King, relying on his agile combat skills.

After half a day of fierce fighting, the group worked together to cut off all twelve of its roots one by one. After losing its roots, the Ghost-Faced Flower King was in a state of complete weakness. Not only was its movement restricted, but its strength was also greatly reduced.

Just as they were about to kill him, a turquoise crossbow bolt pierced the air and headed straight for Xie Xiao.

Boom!

The crossbow bolt came suddenly, as if it had shattered space itself; with just one shot, it pierced Xie Xiao's left shoulder.

This is the [Triple-Turn Weapon - Azure Jade Void Crossbow]!

On the other side of the mountain, a young man stood on a ballista, arms crossed, his face full of arrogance. Some people in the crowd changed their expressions and recognized him.

"It's Meng Zhang, the Holy Son of Qingyang Palace!"

"Wow, shameless! We were almost done, and you just had to come out and interfere!"

"Noisy!"

Meng Zhang gave a cold shout and pointed the crossbow at the cultivators who were refuting him.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Two crossbow bolts were fired in quick succession, piercing through the two cultivators.

"Let's see who dares to disagree! Everyone step forward!"

The crowd fell silent, their fear ultimately overcoming their anger.

"Ah, that's more like it."

Meng Zhang snorted coldly and aimed the crossbow at Xie Lingyin below again.

The two were originally evenly matched, but Xie Lingyin had just been entangled in a fierce battle with the Ghost-Faced Flower King, which had exhausted her energy. She was also secretly hit by an arrow, and now her outer armor was severely damaged. In addition, the Ghost-Faced Flower King was not completely dead and had found an opportunity to launch a desperate counterattack. Xie Lingyin quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.

Seeing that things were not going well, Xie Lingyin turned around and tried to run away.

Meng Zhang would never let such an opportunity slip by. He abandoned his advantage in the terrain, drove his crossbow into the canyon while chasing and shooting, and killed the dying Ghost-Faced Flower King with a burst of bullets, taking him into his possession, and continued to chase Xie Lingyin.

The crowd looked at each other, none daring to step forward. Lu Li slapped his thigh, seeing that his Ghost-Faced Flower King had also been snatched away, so he hurriedly chased after it, following at a distance, while secretly sending a message to Xie Lingyin.

"Run towards the outer edge of the Boundless Realm!"

"You have a way to deal with this lecher? You didn't even run away?"

In Xie Lingyin's view, Lu Li's actions were somewhat unbelievable. Among everyone present, apart from herself, no one could deal with this Holy Son of the Enemy Sect. Even her fellow disciples abandoned her and did not dare to chase after her.

This is called... She doesn't seem to have asked her name yet, and why did she chase after her?

Lu Li was afraid the other party wouldn't believe him, so he made up a lie.

"Once I'm out of this area, my elders will be there to meet me. Dealing with him will be a piece of cake."

"Don't lie to me."

Do you still have a choice now?

"Alright, whatever you say, ee!"

Xie Lingyin let out a scream like a groundhog, and was hit by another crossbow bolt from Meng Zhang. This crossbow bolt seemed to carry immense force, carving a large crater in the mechanical puppet's back.

"what!"

Yan Ou screamed in pain, and Meng Zhang felt that victory was in his grasp.

“If you obediently stop and let me take you back, you and your sister will suffer less.”

"Insolence! Meng Zhang, you just wait, you'll get your comeuppance sooner or later!"

"What a joke, retribution? In all my years, when have I ever been afraid of so-called retribution?"

"Stop her!"

At Meng Zhang's command, six chariots rushed into the valley ahead. It turned out that the disciples of Qingyang Palace had been lying in ambush here, waiting for Xie Lingyin to fall into their trap.

Xie Lingyin emerged from the tattered puppet armor, ignoring her sister's resistance, took out a Yu Dao puppet, put it away, activated the defensive shield, and rushed into the enemy, trying to break through.

Lu Li followed at a distance, secretly considering whether he should retreat for the time being and wait for Meng Zhang to finish his business before making his move.

But after all, the life and death of this saintess had little to do with him. Although he always felt that she had a decent reputation, the two sects were birds of a feather, and what he really wanted was just the Ghost-Faced Flower.

However, there is a great risk in doing this. Once the Ghost Face Flower is picked, its activity will be lost quickly. If Meng Zhang stays in the deep zone and does not give him a chance to make a move, even if he manages to snatch the Ghost Face Flower King, it will be of no use.

At this moment, six mechanical chariots surrounded Xie Lingyin and deployed a barrier, trapping the girl inside. Rain began to fall softly. Xie Lingyin looked up at the sky, a bitter smile on her face.

"Without a protector, I am unlikely to be able to complete the task you assigned me."

Lu Li was about to leave when he suddenly froze on the spot. Who did this woman just say?

Heartless Protector! This girl knows Heartless Protector?

Lu Li sensed that the concentration of Boundless Tribulation in the surrounding area was still quite high. If he were to activate the Uranium Pill here, he would definitely have to pay a price.
