Chapter 389: A Resurrected Dead?
Accompanied by a roar, a huge black shadow rushed out of the secret chamber at lightning speed.
A foul wind, astral winds, and a strong murderous aura pounced towards Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul.
Buzz!
The air surged.
The Essence Soul released its pressure to suppress the black shadow.
!!
However, the black shadow only paused for a moment before pouncing over again.
It was so fast that it didn’t even leave behind an afterimage. It arrived in front of Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul and collided with the Thunder Dragon Bone Armor.
Whoosh!
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul retreated more than ten meters.
The Transcendent-grade suppression was removed in midair.
Xiao Renwo, Guan Zhonghua, and the others who flew over were also sent flying by the violent charge of the black shadow.
Roar!
The roars continued, echoing in the air above the ruins.
The huge black shadow targeted Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul and pounced over again.
Swoosh!
The Essence Soul landed easily, its eyes shining.
Sword Eyes was activated. Through the Thunder Dragon Mask, the solidified sword-shaped light beams accurately struck the black shadow, forcing it to stop charging and retreat.
That’s right. Under Sword Eyes, this huge figure that rushed out of the secret chamber actually did not shatter and disintegrate. Instead, it forcefully received it!
Sword Eyes was a soul skill that used soul power. How could a physical body withstand it?
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was shocked. Its perception covered the open secret chamber. It confirmed that there was no one else inside, only this beast-like giant in front of him.
He was nearly four meters tall with disheveled hair. There was no emotion in his scarlet eyes. His huge body clearly did not contain any vitality, but it could move.
Baleful energy, death energy, killing intent, and a strange aura mixed together to form an exceptionally strong aura.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was not affected much by this aura.
Xiao Renwo, Guan Zhonghua, and the others, who had retreated to the side, found it difficult to endure. It was as if they had accidentally entered a swamp filled with quagmire. They were inexplicably fl.u.s.tered and terrified, wishing they could escape immediately.
“Who is this?”
Fu Neng spoke in a low voice, his gaze fixed on the beast-like giant.
“There aren’t any fluctuations in his emotions. He’s probably a puppet,” Xiao Renwo muttered.
“Puppet? What puppet is so strong?” Guan Zhonghua frowned. “Don’t you realize that his physical body is so strong that even his Divine Embryo is inferior?”
“It is indeed a little abnormal. Isn’t such a physical body only possessed by Martial Sages and those in the Transcendent-grade?” Luo Zhuigong echoed.
“Fortunately, the Martial Sage is here.” Fu Neng exhaled. “If we had opened the secret chamber and released this unknown fellow, we would probably all have died.”
“That’s right,” Guan Zhonghua sighed.
If they were to face this giant puppet that was crazily attacking the Martial Sage, almost every one of them would die.
Fortunately, the Martial Sage arrived in time!
…
Fu Neng, Guan Zhonghua, and the others were still feeling lingering fear.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was also filled with curiosity.
The size of the fellow in front of him was secondary. The key was that his physical body was unimaginably strong.
The Sword Eyes beams struck repeatedly, but could not penetrate it, only leaving cracks on it.
Such a body was definitely comparable to a Transcendent-grade physical body.
Its st.u.r.diness was no less than that of a martial artists in the third or fifth cla.s.s of Void Soul.
The Essence Soul did not clash head-on with it because Su Jingxing realized that the other party did not have any consciousness, only instincts. It was like a machine that was being controlled.
A puppet?
A puppet whose body was comparable to the physical body of a Martial Sage?
Realizing this, Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul naturally wouldn’t fight it head-on. Instead, it played around with him. It led the other party left and right, guiding his attention, but it refused to let him touch itself.
Previously, it was sent flying because it was caught off guard.
Now that Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul had locked onto its target and was paying attention to its every move, how could it be hit again?
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul wanted to see how strong this fellow’s physical strength was and if there was a limit to it.
In the end, after scanning repeatedly, it discovered that the energies in the other party’s entire body were fused. The dancing baneful aura, killing intent, death energy, and so on were all wrapped around his body and not leaking out.
In the Essence Soul’s perception, the entire physical body was like a piece of hard metal.
Transcendent body?
Divine Embryo?
Secret ability?
Or all three?
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul thought for a moment and decided not to hold back anymore.
This was because it realized that the power unleashed by this giant puppet seemed to have no limits.
He couldn’t be kept alive any longer.
Fortunately, Su Jingxing was the one to encounter it. Anyone else would have been torn to pieces.
Even a Martial Sage who had just broken through to the Transcendent-grade would die if he was careless.
“This fellow was specially left behind by the mastermind to deal with me!”
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul sneered.
Circulating its soul power, it executed the Tiangang Demon Suppression Hand.
Boom!
A dazzling white light immediately bloomed, turning into sheets that surrounded the giant puppet from all directions.
Roar!
The giant puppet that was attacking rapidly roared angrily. His entire huge body had no choice but to lie on the ground, unable to move.
The giant palm imprint evolved from the Tiangang Demon Suppression Hand materialized and grabbed the giant puppet’s limbs and even his head, pressing it to the ground.
Whoosh!
In the sky, a ray of light suddenly bloomed and descended from the sky.
Swoosh!
The sky split into two, and a clear pa.s.sageway opened up from the sky, extending to the You Family’s manor.
Finally, it stopped in front of Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul and revealed its true appearance.
The Wandering Dragon Saber!
Now that it had captured the giant puppet, the Essence Soul did not want to waste his soul power and naturally summoned the Wandering Dragon Saber.
Swish!
Saber light bloomed, and the might of a divine weapon was immediately augmented on the puppet’s neck.
Clang!
A crisp sound reverberated through the ruins.
The Wandering Dragon Saber’s first slash actually did not behead the puppet.
How tough!
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul sent a thought to the Wandering Dragon Saber and allowed it to continue slashing.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
For a time, blade beams connected almost without stopping.
The crisp sounds also filled the air endlessly, turning into a tune.
It only stopped when the blade energy sliced into the ground.
[Card+1]
A notification flashed past.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul put away the Wandering Dragon Saber and willed it to soar into the sky and return to the Void World.
Luo Xuangong, Xiao Renwo, Fu Neng, and the others who were watching the battle from afar looked at the sky for a while and exchanged glances before approaching Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul.
Their gazes swept across the ground a few times before finally landing on the head whose face was facing the sky. Xiao Renwo suddenly let out a cry of surprise.
“What’s wrong?” Guan Zhonghua was puzzled.
Xiao Renwo did not respond immediately. Instead, he squatted down and pushed aside the messy hair covering the face. He looked at the square face that was revealed and said in surprise, “I know him.”
What?
Guan Zhonghua, Fu Neng, Luo Zhuigong, and the others were stunned.
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul also looked at Xiao Renwo curiously. “Are you sure?”
“Yes, definitely.”
Xiao Renwo nodded and said seriously, “His name is Xu Zhongze. He’s a general of the Kang Nation, but he has been dead for more than 60 years…”
“Wait, wait, Old Xiao, are you confused?”
Guan Zhonghua stretched out his hand and interrupted, “A person who has been dead for more than 60 years can still be resurrected? And kept alive until now? Are you sure you’re not seeing things?”
“I said I’m sure, I’m sure. As for why he’s alive, I’m also curious about that.”
Xiao Renwo raised his eyebrows and said strangely, “Xu Zhongze was a transcendent body martial artist when he was alive. He was also very tall, nearly three meters. When he died back then, he had already condensed a Divine Embryo. If his corpse wasn’t destroyed and was refined into a puppet, it would be reasonable for him to become like this.”
Su Jingxing’s Essence Soul was silent.
After hearing Xiao Renwo’s words, a thought struck him. His main body in the Void World took out the card and held it in his hand to read the information.
The next moment, he could not conceal the joy on his face!
