Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 43: The Power of Foundation Establishment!

"Highly vigilant."

Lu Qingfeng, through the Destroying Truth Type One, saw the disciples of the Ghost Spirit Sect in the Shell Field ahead, already taking out their talismans and preparing for battle.

The Ghost Spirit Sect belongs to one of the six sects of the Demon Dao, specializing in ghost driving and demon enslaving techniques, proficient in poison and the dark arts.

These skills would surely give an ordinary cultivator a headache. However, it just so happened that the Hundred Skill Sect excelled in refining puppets, capable of restraining ghosts and poison techniques.

Now, Lu Qingfeng was even controlling a hundred Destroying Truth Type One, encircling the Spirit Turtle Shell Field in a fan shape.

In the dense forest swamp, rustling sounds were all around.

Qian Sen concentrated deeply, sneering coldly, "Playing tricks and pretending to be gods!"

But the Black Pearl in his hand was not released.

Suddenly.

Whoosh!

An arrow tore through the air, heading straight towards a disciple near Qian Sen.

"Shooting a cold arrow!"

"The kids of the Hundred Skill Sect only have this much skill!"

Qian Sen scoffed, suddenly revealing a ghastly white skull in his hand.

His fingers passed through the facial holes of the skull, and with a light wave of his hand while channeling his True Qi, two human-shaped shadows floated out from the skull, lightly pushed in mid-air, and the arrow was immediately deflected.

Whoosh!

Clang!

The arrow entered the dense forest, piercing through several ancient trees, finally sticking in a trunk, making a 'clang' sound.

"Ghost driving technique!"

Lu Qingfeng's gaze focused, looking at the two human-shaped shadows blocking the arrow, his mind stirred.

This must be the Ghost Spirit Sect's signature technique, the ghost creatures manipulated by this person!

As soon as these two ghosts appeared, deflecting an arrow, they quickly swept towards the direction from which the arrow had come. Ghosts have no physical form and are extremely fast; within a blink, they reached one of the puppets where Lu Qingfeng had descended.

"Fire all at once!"

With a thought, Lu Qingfeng transferred his consciousness to another puppet.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

A hundred Destroying Truth Type One suddenly leaped out from the woods. Among them, fifty Destroying Truth Type One (archer version) pulled up their Sun-shattering Bows, some using Armor-Piercing Arrows, others using Shock Arrows.

Arrows were fired simultaneously!

"Puppets?!"

"Not good!"

Qian Sen manipulated the ghosts to pounce towards 'that person' who fired the stealth arrow, passing directly through, then realizing that the target was indeed a puppet.

And in the next instant, a hundred puppets appeared at once.

A chill ran through Qian Sen's heart!

Not to mention the strength of a hundred puppets, just this show of force alone indicated that the attackers were no ordinary people.

"Kill!"

With one hand holding the Skull Talisman and crushing the Black Pearl in the other, Qian Sen shouted, commanding the disciples behind him to attack the puppets.

Meanwhile, he himself dodged the arrows and quickly retreated.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Arrows fell like rain.

The puppets, tireless, released five volleys in an instant. Two hundred and fifty arrows enveloped Qian Sen and the thirty-seven disciples around him.

These disciples each brought out their talismans, surrounded by ghostly aura and gusts of Yin Wind.

But!

Nine cultivators at the True Qi Realm barely managed to hold on, but the twenty-eight disciples at just the Fetal Breathing Realm couldn't even withstand three volleys; their talismans shattered, falling into pools of blood.

Lu Qingfeng saw that among the group of Ghost Spirit Sect disciples, the leader was the first to flee. Following him, the nine surviving True Qi Realm disciples scattered under the shower of arrows.

"Thinking of escaping?"

The Archer Puppets continuously shot arrows to disturb them, while fifty Shield Battle Puppets had already caught up.

"Golden Centipede Mother-Child Blade!"

Shield Battle Puppets wielded crescent-shaped long blades, swung mightily, and eight smaller blades appeared out of thin air, covering the nine fleeing people like a barrage of cannonballs.

"Golden Light Skill!"

"Xuan Tie Shield!"

"Mother and Child Same Heart Ghost!"

The nine were alert and each tried to counter the strike with their own techniques.

But while they might block an attack from a single puppet, how could they defend against fifty Shield Battle Puppets and fifty Archer Puppets?

Bang bang bang!

With a series of bangs—

The Golden Light Skill shattered!

The Xuan Tie Shield fell!

The Mother and Child Same Heart Ghost dissipated like smoke!

Arrows struck their hearts, and the nine Ghost Spirit Sect True Qi Realm disciples instantly died, bodies and souls extinguished!

"Retreat!"

Lu Qingfeng glanced at the direction where the sole escapee fled and immediately ordered the puppets to retreat.

This battle was swift and decisive.

One hundred Second Level Puppets overwhelmed them, leaving ordinary cultivators powerless.

The strongest cultivator at the peak of the True Qi Realm was scared away, while the rest lost their will to fight. They continued the pursuit, achieving great results!

Before the Foundation Establishment Practitioners of the Ghost Spirit Sect could arrive, they had already fled without a trace.

Even the Foundation Establishment Practitioners dared not rashly pursue the hundred Second Level Puppets, lest they fall into an ambush.

Thus,

Lu Qingfeng commanded one thousand and twenty puppets, delving deep into the Black Water Swamp, constantly targeting the Ghost Spirit Sect's occupied Shell Fields, Medicine Gardens, and mines.

He beheaded hundreds of Ghost Spirit Sect disciples.

In this process, some puppets were also lost. At one point, they encountered a Foundation Establishment Stage Great Cultivator and one group of puppets couldn't retreat in time, resulting in total annihilation!

Foundation Establishment Stage!

Reaching this realm, one could initially communicate with the forces of heaven and earth, marking the beginning of the path to immortality. Their methods were extraordinary, and their destructive power was astonishing.

The one Lu Qingfeng encountered wielded a banner, casually arranging ghosts to form a great array. Yin Fire arose densely, and even though puppets were caught in it, they couldn't discern directions. In their blind attacks, they were ultimately refined by the Yin Fire into a puddle of molten iron!

However, that Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator also suffered.

As hundred puppets were refined one by one by the Yin Fire, only eight remained when a gap was torn in this grand array.

Lu Qingfeng, through his puppets, saw that thin Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, whose triangular black banner shattered into dozens of pieces as the formation was broken.

His face was extremely gloomy, and a hint of heartache was vaguely perceptible!

Finally, he struck fiercely with his palm, transforming into a huge handprint that directly crushed the eight puppets that breached the formation.

The view disappeared!

"That Black Banner must be a Second Rank Magic Artifact; this person's cultivation level can't be less than the second level of Foundation Establishment."

Lu Qingfeng sat in the Black Sand Refining Room, unperturbed by the total destruction of a hundred puppets. In fact, even if all these thousand-plus puppets were destroyed in the game, as long as he could figure out suitable tactics and combat methods, allowing Lu Qingfeng to gain more direct understanding of the puppets' combat capabilities.

It's all worth it.

Lu Qingfeng refined puppets and stockpiled them only to prepare for a counterattack against the Returning to Truth Sect in reality.

"The Destroying Truth Type One equipped with magic artifacts can massacre ordinary True Qi Realm cultivators, but they pale in comparison against Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators."

"It is unknown whether there are any Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the Returning to Truth Sect!"

Lu Qingfeng pondered thoughtfully.

In the game, he could easily refine a hundred or a thousand puppets, but in reality, in Miao Yin City, it was difficult to gather massive amounts of materials.

"If there are no Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the Returning to Truth Sect, then a dozen Destroying Truth Type Ones could sweep through it. If there are Foundation Establishment Cultivators, even the weakest among them, hundreds of puppets would be needed to contend."

Having witnessed the power of that Ghost Spirit Sect Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator and experiencing the difficulty of mass-refining Destroying Truth Type One in reality, Lu Qingfeng harbored doubts about the brute force strategy.

"It seems it must be planned carefully."

"After resolving the matter with the Returning to Truth Sect, it's also necessary to research and refine high-level puppets."

The might displayed by the Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator influenced Lu Qingfeng's thoughts. However, all of this would need to wait until after dealing with the Returning to Truth Sect and leaving Upper Sun Country.

Thinking of the Returning to Truth Sect, Lu Qingfeng suddenly sensed someone calling in reality, immediately ordered the remaining puppets in the Black Water Swamp to disperse and hide.

Then he hurriedly logged off.
