However, even if Jin Shui is powerful, it would still be somewhat difficult for Ji Fanya to completely control the situation with his current strength.

The puppet's movements were hindered, but that did not mean it had completely lost its ability to move. It could still launch attacks, but its movements were much slower than before, and its body was still being slightly corroded by the gold water.

"Whoosh..."

Seeing the opponent's huge fist coming at him, Ji Fanya dodged it in time.

However, at the same time, control over the metal and water elements was also lost!

"Bang!"

Without the restriction of the golden water, the puppet's speed was restored, and it struck Ji Fanya again.

"Pfft..."

His injuries, which had just begun to improve after taking the medicine, worsened again. Blood flew through the air, and he crashed heavily to the ground.

"Whoosh..."

The puppet's green eyes were filled with numbness and coldness. Without the slightest pause, it pushed off with its feet and charged towards Ji Fanya again.

"clang…"

Of course, the puppet's second attack failed, and Yuan Tun blocked it again at the last minute.

"Cough, thank you!"

Ji Fanya's face was pale, and he coughed up another mouthful of blood, but his eyes were more determined than ever before. He formed the hand seals again, "Golden Delicacies!"

Although he didn't know where he was, he finally understood that to survive, he had to defeat the puppet in front of him.

The best way now is to try to survive while controlling the gold to corrode the puppet's central mechanism!

Yes, Fan Qiyue once told him that all the energy of the puppets came from the Xuan Stone. Although the location of the Xuan Stone was different for each puppet, it definitely existed.

If he searches diligently, he will definitely find it!

So Ji Fanya began to use the golden water to slow down the puppet and dodge the attacks, while concentrating his mental energy to its maximum to carefully observe the puppet and try to find its central location.

However, multitasking is not an easy thing.

In particular, Ji Fanya is still struggling to control the gold and water, which requires a lot of energy. He also has to observe and dodge the puppets. In just a short while, he has been attacked by the puppets several times during the interruption.

At this moment, Ji Fanya was truly grateful to Jun Feijue. If it weren't for having enough Purple Mist Pills and Seven Exhaustion Pills to recover from his injuries in time, he would probably be a corpse by now.

However, even with enough pills, one's profound energy will eventually run out.

To manipulate something like Jinshui, which can influence puppets across so many levels, requires an enormous consumption of Xuan power.

Ji Fanya could clearly feel that with each manipulation of the golden water, his profound energy was decreasing at an alarming rate.

"Plop..."

Without hesitation, he tilted his head back and swallowed the only Qi-restoring pill in his hand.

This fourth-grade Qi-restoring pill was one he had saved from when he first enrolled in school, instead of taking it.

"This is the last chance."

Ji Fanya wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and then took out a handful of healing pills and swallowed them.

He couldn't remember how many times he had been beaten. Even if his injuries could heal, his body was nearing its limit, and he was feeling dizzy.

He knew this was a sign of excessive blood loss.

These pills can heal injuries, but they cannot restore vital energy. Although eating demonic food can achieve this effect, the puppet in front of him clearly does not give him this opportunity.
