Chapter 1421 - Chapter 1421 Chapter 1519 Three Puppets

Chapter 1421: Chapter 1519: Three Puppets Chapter 1421: Chapter 1519: Three Puppets As soon as the words fell, three figures suddenly appeared in front of Fang Lin.

As soon as these three people appeared, the Seven Heroes of True Martial were somewhat startled, and upon a closer look, their expressions changed even more.

Among these three, one was a middle-aged man with scruffy beard and weathered face, looking rather decrepit.

Another had the appearance of a youth, with clear eyebrows and handsome features, exuding an air of scholarly elegance.

The third person was a middle-aged monk with a dignified aura, his body radiating golden Buddha light.

“Long Sangzi of Chongyun Temple, Lu Linyuan of Return to Sea Painting Studio, and the Arhat Fuhu from the Heavenly Zen Temple?” the old woman said with some surprise.

“Weren’t these three said to have died in the Nine Countries? How could they appear here?” another elder from the True Martial Hall frowned and said.

“It looks like they didn’t die; they were just turned into puppets by Fang Lin,” the old woman said with an ugly expression.

Hearing this, the Seven Heroes of True Martial all showed anger, since Long Sangzi and the other two were high-ranking experts of the three sects of the Seven Seas, and yet they had been turned into puppets by Fang Lin, a sight that would infuriate anyone from the Seven Seas.

Moreover, Long Sangzi was a Taoist Sect expert. Although not a member of the True Martial Hall, he still belonged to the Taoist Sect, considered kin and connected.

“Who would have thought that Long Sangzi would meet such a fate, a pity for such a great talent,” sighed a young man among the Seven Heroes of True Martial.

The others deeply agreed. Lu Linyuan and Arhat Fuhu aside, but Long Sangzi was certainly no ordinary individual.

Once a very famous prodigy of Chongyun Temple, he had exceptional understanding and was taken by an elder of Chongyun Temple as a personal disciple.

In a past contest among the younger generation of the Taoist Sect’s three major forces, Long Sangzi truly stood out, overshadowing his contemporaries and was considered by many older strong figures as a pillar able to support the Taoist Sect in the future.

Even a hidden figure of the Taoist Sect, who had not appeared for a long time, personally came forward to give Long Sangzi some advice.

Don’t underestimate that advice; with those few words from the elder, Long Sangzi’s realm advanced dramatically, vastly outstripping his contemporaries within the Taoist Sect.

Unfortunately, such a rare talent ruined his promising future because of a woman. From then on, he never recovered, his realm ceased advancing, and he lived in dissipation, spending his days drinking away his sorrows.

If he hadn’t nominally still been a disciple of an elder from Chongyun Temple, it’s likely that Chongyun Temple would have expelled him long ago.

The once brilliant prodigy of the Taoist Sect now reduced to an unconscious puppet, such a plight was lamentable.

Long Sangzi and the other two were originally the strong figures sent by the three sects to attack Qian Country but were all captured by the Old Dried Corpse and turned into puppets by Fang Lin.

The three were Minor Longevity realm experts, and among them, especially Long Sangzi, possessed extraordinary strength. Probably, there weren’t many in the same realm who could match him.

Such powerful experts, how could Fang Lin let them go? Naturally, he turned them into puppets to use for his bidding.

At that moment, as soon as Long Sangzi and the other two appeared, they fiercely attacked the Seven Heroes of True Martial without fear of death, while Fang Lin didn’t idle either. He immediately moved towards the purple thunder seal.

Fang Lin had figured out the purpose of this purple thunder seal, which was to hold back the Demon Puppet and prevent it from assisting him.

If Fang Lin could simply take or even destroy this purple thunder seal, then the Seven Heroes of True Martial wouldn’t be able to constrain the Demon Puppet any longer.

“Not good! He’s going after the Five Thunder Seals!” the old woman yelled, discerning Fang Lin’s intention and immediately rushed to stop him.

She withdrew, and the power of the True Martial Seven Section Array greatly diminished. Even though Long Sangzi and the other two were suppressed by the other six fighters, they wouldn’t be defeated any time soon.

Fang Lin headed straight for the purple thunder seal, his White Bone Dragon Spear ready to strike. However, the old woman was incredibly fast and had already caught up to Fang Lin, striking directly at his back with a palm.

Left with no choice, Fang Lin could only turn around to block, clashing hard with the old woman.

With that strike, the old woman kept retreating, while Fang Lin remained unmoved, continuing his advance towards the purple thunder seal.

The old woman’s expression turned ugly; alone, she was no longer in the advantageous position she had been while inside the True Martial Seven Section Array. She couldn’t confront Fang Lin by herself.

Fang Lin successfully reached the purple thunder seal and struck it with his White Bone Dragon Spear.

A booming sound erupted as a surge of the power of thunder and lightning burst forth, engulfing Fang Lin in a tidal wave of electricity.

Fang Lin’s body was ravaged by the thunder and lightning, yet he hardly felt any pain. Instead, his body began to absorb this power of thunder and lightning, converting it into his own strength.

Having trained in the Thunder Pool, Fang Lin was highly resistant to electricity and could harness it to fortify his body.

Thus, the power of thunder and lightning from the purple thunder seal didn’t harm Fang Lin; rather, it somewhat enhanced his physical strength.

The old woman was staring at the raging thunder, hoping to see Fang Lin severely injured. Suddenly, her face changed drastically when she saw the Demon Puppet approaching her.

“Not good!” The old woman didn’t dare contend with the Demon Puppet and turned to run.

But the Demon Puppet used the power of the Demon Pupil to immobilize her, and then delivered a punch straight at her head.

Had that landed, the strength of the Demon Puppet would undoubtedly have shattered her skull, killing her instantly.

In a moment of extreme peril, the old woman didn’t think twice and slapped her Nine Palace Bag, grasping a fiery red Peach Wood Sword in her hand.

Buzz!

She swung the Peach Wood Sword, and a powerful burst of Sword Qi exploded from it, colliding fiercely with the fist of the Demon Puppet.

The Demon Puppet’s advance was halted, giving the old woman a chance to retreat back to the six people to reform the True Martial Seven Section Array.

Suddenly, Fang Lin burst forth, aiming his White Bone Dragon Spear directly at the old woman’s face.

The old woman, startled, raised her Peach Wood Sword to block.

But just as the two weapons were about to clash, Fang Lin suddenly withdrew, letting a fierce blaze spread from within him and engulf the old woman.

Then, the Demon Puppet advanced closely, the power of the Demon Pupil activating again to confine the old woman in the flames, rendering her unable to move.

“Ah!!!” The old woman screamed. The surrounding flames were Skyfire, making her feel unbearably hot, as though her entire body was melting.

Knowing the situation was dire, the old woman once again swung her Peach Wood Sword. Instantly, a swath of Sword Qi whistled through, cutting a path through the flames, allowing her to escape.

The moment she broke free, she was met with the Demon Sword in the hands of the Demon Puppet.

In an instant, the arm holding the Peach Wood Sword was severed by the Demon Puppet.
