Chapter 176: Corpse Puppet
Jin Dabao was able to find the killer in the dark because of the Blood Scroll of the Gods and Demons.
Nie Tian guessed that there must be top killers from the Blood Bat Sect in every key position in the palace.
In order to prevent these killers from escaping, Jin Dabao was asked to follow.
Otherwise, with Jin Dabao's fifth-level Yuanling strength, there was no need to appear here.
"Dabao." Jin Mingxin glanced at Jin Dabao, who shook his head slightly, indicating that there was no one here.
Qin Yetian and Jin Mingxin looked at each other and continued to move forward.
At the same time, three figures poked their heads out from a dark corner in the palace. They were Nie Tian, Qiu Shan, and Qi Feng.
"Twenty meters to the east, thirty meters to the northeast." Nie Tian transmitted a message to Qiu Shan and Qi Feng, and then made a gesture to silence them.
Qiu Shan and Qi Feng understood, and their figures flashed away.
Nie Tian's figure also moved, quietly moving forward dozens of meters. A black-clothed figure lurked in the darkness, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.
However, what the venomous snake didn't know was that he had been targeted by the hawk.
"Who?" The cold killing intent had already reached him, and the black-clothed figure reacted, but it was too late.
"Puff!" The sharp sword light whistled past, and the black-clothed figure fell to the ground and died without even a muffled groan.
Qiu Shan and Qi Feng appeared again and joined Nie Tian.
The three of them were very cruel and never gave their opponents any chance to react.
These black-clothed men were cruel and bloodthirsty killers. They certainly didn't think that one day they would become little lambs to be slaughtered.
Nie Tian and the other two approached the Zhengde Hall of the Imperial Palace step by step. According to the ideal situation, when they entered the Zhengde Hall, the dark killers along the way in the Imperial Palace would be slaughtered.
"Not good! Someone broke into the Imperial Palace!" But at this moment, panicked shouts suddenly came from a distance.
"Not good, we've been discovered!" Qiu Shan and Qi Feng's faces changed at the same time.
Nie Tian looked normal, as if nothing had happened, and motioned the two to continue walking forward and not to bother with them.
Zhengde Hall of the Imperial Palace.
Lan Yunhai was like a puddle of mud, slumped beside the dragon throne.
Gao Jin, the leader of the Blood Bat Sect, sat in the middle of the dragon throne, holding a three-legged wine glass in his hand, but there was no wine in it, he just pretended to enjoy it very much.
"Master!" A black figure broke into the hall, and the man staggered and almost fell.
Gao Jin's burly body stood up suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "What happened? Why are you so panicked?"
"Reply, report to the master, someone broke into the palace and killed many of our people." The man's voice trembled a little, obviously very nervous.
"How many died?" Gao Jin's voice was low, and his whole body was suddenly filled with terrifying murderous intent.
"Several, dozens of people." The man trembled and dared not look up.
"Waste!" Gao Jin suddenly got angry and kicked over the dragon throne in front of him, and Lan Yunhai rolled down like a pile of shit.
"Yes, yes, I am a waste." The man was frightened and nodded repeatedly and retreated.
Gao Jin suddenly turned around, raised his arm slightly, and a subtle energy floated over. The person opposite him didn't react at all and died directly.
The corpse curse Gu, killing people invisibly!
Gao Jin smiled sinisterly and said, "Since you know that you are a waste, there is no need to live."
After killing the person in front of him, Gao Jin didn't even look at him. For him, killing is as common as eating and drinking.
"Who on earth is it that dares to kill in the palace? It's just looking for death!" Gao Jin was furious, and after the roar fell, more than a dozen black-clothed warriors appeared, and their figures quickly rushed out and disappeared under the night.
"No matter who it is, if you stop my revenge plan, you must be prepared to die." Gao Jin sat down slowly, and there was a figure beside him.
If Nie Tian was here, he would immediately recognize that this figure was Tang Youyou.
But Tang Youyou seemed different at this time. Although she was still beautiful, her eyes were dull and she had lost her former sharpness.
In the palace, Nie Tian, Qiu Shan and Qi Feng gradually approached the Zhengde Hall.
"Be careful!" At this moment, Nie Tian suddenly felt a cool breeze behind him and couldn't help shouting.
Qiu Shan and Qi Feng turned around at the same time. Behind them, more than a dozen black-clothed warriors appeared silently.
"What breath?" Qiu Shan looked at the black-clothed warriors in front of him, but he couldn't feel any breath of life, but smelled a fishy and rotten smell.
"They don't seem to be human." Qi Feng also found something unusual, and his voice trembled slightly.
Nie Tian also frowned slightly, and immediately noticed something, shouting: "Be careful, don't let them get close, these people are Gu worm puppets."
"Gu worm puppets!" Qiu Shan and Qi Feng looked at each other and were surprised in unison.
Nie Tian was right. The dozen or so black-clothed people in front of him were no longer human, but corpse puppets controlled by Gao Jin.
A dozen or so corpse puppets, all of which are of the ninth level of Wanxiang.
"Oh no! I don't have a seal scroll!" Nie Tian secretly cried out that it was not good. He knew that this kind of puppet was difficult to kill, but it could be sealed.
If Nie Tian had a dozen third-level seal scrolls, he could easily seal all the corpse puppets.
But now, he can only find a way to kill these corpse puppets.
The Corpse Puppet is emotionless and even has no consciousness. It just follows the simplest orders of the Gu Controller and will never give up until it achieves its goal.
"Huh!" A Corpse Puppet took the lead and even used its Yuan Ling. It was a dark black leopard, and it pounced directly at Nie Tian.
"Sir, be careful!" Qiu Shan, who was standing by, reacted very quickly. His first thought was to protect Nie Tian. A seemingly extremely heavy bladeless sword appeared behind him. It was his Yuan Ling, Desert Blade Without Edge!
"Desert Blade Flying Dust!" Desert Blade Without Edge slashed down with a sword, and the sword light was shocking. It directly broke the attack of the black leopard and shook the Corpse Puppet away.
"What a strong sword energy!" Nie Tian was slightly shocked by the power of Qiu Shan's sword. He did not expect that Qiu Shan could actually condense sword energy.
Swordsmen, like swordsmen, need to condense sword energy and cultivate sword heart.
Qiu Shan's ability to condense sword energy shows that he has a strong talent in the way of swordsmanship.
Although Qiu Shan's sword energy was powerful, the fallen corpse puppet didn't feel any pain at all. After getting up, it rushed towards Nie Tian and others again.
"One sword to extinguish the night!" Nie Tian didn't wait any longer. Jian Jue Tian slashed out, and a ten-meter-long sword light flew out, forcing more than a dozen corpse puppets to retreat.
Qiu Shan and Qi Feng looked at each other and were deeply shocked. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they couldn't believe that a Wanxiang first-level warrior could have such strength.
Qiu Shan even thought that even if he was now, he might not be able to gain an advantage against Nie Tian.
