Chapter 1339 - Chapter 1339 Chapter 1438 Demon Puppet Recovery

Chapter 1339: Chapter 1438: Demon Puppet Recovery Chapter 1339: Chapter 1438: Demon Puppet Recovery “Sigh, why are all the guardians in this place so twisted? It’s really troublesome,” Fang Lin said as he sat within the Supreme Saint Hall, healing his injuries.

The black-robed woman he had encountered in the Second Array had the ability to control all the demon beasts within the array.

Such an ability was indeed perverted since even Giant Demon Kings could be commanded, subjecting anyone who entered to relentless pursuit by demon beasts.

If it weren’t for Fang Lin having the gold-haired puppy, which specifically countered demon beasts, he might have faced even greater crises and difficulties in the Second Array and wouldn’t have passed through so easily.

Now, the guardian of this magma domain also possessed formidable powers, capable of controlling the volcanoes and magma here. Such abilities, if exhibited outside, would be revered almost like a deity.

Compared to that, the abilities of the young man were even stronger than those of the black-robed woman in the Second Array.

After all, the power of demon beasts varied greatly, whereas the magma here was endless and could be manipulated at will without any restrictions.

Fortunately, Fang Lin had a way to restrain the magma, which was the Ancient Lamp of Flame God.

As long as the Ancient Lamp of Flame God absorbed the heat and flames from the magma, it would turn into useless stones.

“You’re the one who didn’t use the Ancient Lamp of Flame God yourself, who else can you blame? Just use it earlier next time,” the Old Dried Corpse said.

Fang Lin smiled, “I will use it directly next time.”

While healing, Fang Lin also felt a pang of sadness; the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear was ruined. This weapon, which he had used for a long time, was destroyed here by Juechen with a single strike.

However, Fang Lin understood that the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear wasn’t very useful to him now.

The weapon had been quite useful when he was at the Heavenly Origin and Spirit Vein levels, but now Fang Lin was at the Ninth Layer of Spirit Bone, and his strength was comparable to that of a Spirit Source powerhouse. Therefore, the use of the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear had become somewhat awkward.

Though the Flood Dragon Bone was rare, the Flood Dragon Bone used in the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear was merely from a Demon King’s bones, which had limited levels. Against expert fighters like Juechen, it could be shattered with a single blow.

Therefore, after the Mysterious Sea Dragon Spear was broken, Fang Lin did not plan to repair it, as it would be prone to damage again even if repaired.

Once healed, Fang Lin felt his realm had slightly improved; it seemed that his battle with Juechen had brought him considerable gains.

“Juechen seems to be about to enter the Spirit Source realm, and so does Yin Wuyan; I’m still a bit behind them,” Fang Lin said.

“In terms of cultivation, you are indeed a bit behind the two of them, but in terms of strength, you are not weak, so there’s no need to worry about it,” the Old Dried Corpse said.

Fang Lin nodded; he wasn’t troubled. The realm could be caught up with some time and effort, but increasing his strength was far more important.

Three days later, Fang Lin’s injuries had healed, but he didn’t rush to leave the Supreme Saint Hall.

There were still some matters Fang Lin hadn’t resolved.

First was the Demon Puppet.

Ever since the battle with the red-robed elder from the Hidden Kill Hall, not only had the Demon Puppet been hit by a Demonic Extermination Needle, but half of its body had also turned to stone. Now in this magma domain, without the Demon Puppet guarding him, Fang Lin felt somewhat uneasy.

“What’s with this petrification?” Fang Lin frowned as he looked at the parts of the Demon Puppet that had turned into stone.

“You are a Pill Refiner; you should know better than I,” the Old Dried Corpse remarked.

Fang Lin squinted his eyes for a while, his nose twitching slightly before a look of surprise appeared on his face.

“So that’s how it is.” Fang Lin muttered to himself, and then he slapped his Nine Palace Bag, grabbing several kinds of herbs from inside.

Following that, Fang Lin crushed these herbs in a container. The juices of the herbs mixed together, emitting a somewhat pungent smell.

Then, Fang Lin applied this juice to the petrified areas of the Demon Puppet’s body.

Moments later, the petrified parts of the Demon Puppet’s body began to return to normal as the rocks covering its surface fell off one after another.

“Hidden Kill Hall is really quite clever, actually using the roots of Stone Heart Grass to make such a thing,” Fang Lin said.

The Old Dried Corpse, however, could not understand what Fang Lin was saying as, after all, Fang Lin was the authority on herbs and pill refining.

With the petrification resolved, the Demon Puppet regained mobility, but the Demonic Extermination Needle was still inside it, so it could not reach its original level of strength; it was at most equivalent to a master of the Eighth or Ninth Layer of Spirit Source.

“How should I remove the Demonic Extermination Needle?” Fang Lin touched his chin, finding himself somewhat troubled.

After all, Fang Lin knew nothing about the Demonic Extermination Needle and had never encountered it before, so he did not know how to remove it.

The Old Dried Corpse did not have any good suggestions for Fang Lin. The Demonic Extermination Needle was a creation of the Pill Alliance, and perhaps only a few people in the Pill Alliance knew how to use it.

While Fang Lin was contemplating, demonic Qi surged around the Demon Puppet, and the Demonic Extermination Needle was actually forced out of its body, falling to the ground with a clang.

Fang Lin got a fright as the needle grazed past his cheek, almost hitting him.

Immediately, Fang Lin picked up the Demonic Extermination Needle, feeling an unusual sensation in his hand, completely unaware of what material had been used to forge it.

“So the Dragon Family Demon can expel the Demonic Extermination Needle by itself, no wonder after being hit with three needles, it could eventually restore its former strength,” Fang Lin said somewhat surprised.

However, Fang Lin also noticed that after the Demon Puppet forced the needle out, its demonic Qi weakened slightly. It had not completely recovered, but it was much better than when it was affected by the needles.

It seems that forcing the Demonic Extermination Needle out of its body also drained a lot of its strength, but now that the needle was expelled, regaining its former strength was just a matter of time.

Wuyan felt rather helpless; this land of lava was quite troublesome. No matter where one went, one’s presence was detected, followed by the eruption of volcanoes and lava attacks.

“That Taoist Sect guy should be here too, but why can’t I find him after searching for so long?” Wuyan flew in the air, frowning slightly.

Boom~~

The lava surged from behind again, advancing towards Wuyan like a wave.

Wuyan puckered her lips, a look of helplessness on her face, about to throw out a piece of millennium ice again.

However, a piece of millennium ice appeared first, dissolving the wave of lava and Wuyan’s crisis as well.

Wuyan blinked, and then looked towards the nearby area, seeing a person in a blue Taoist robe flying towards her.

“You are indeed here. I thought you had been killed,” Wuyan said, rather dissatisfied.
