200 A puppeteer who doesn't want to be a sword cultivator is not a good talisman cultivator
The terrifying thought of "Mingchen's resurrection from the dead" flashed through Qiao Yanqing's mind for less than a second before it was forcibly driven away by the fear deep in his heart.
He didn't even dare to face this conjecture and asked Jiang Xin directly: "What is your relationship with Mingchen?"
Jiang Xin tilted her head: "Who are you talking about?"
Because he was too scared, Qiao Yanqing's pronunciation was unclear and Jiang Xin did not hear the word "Mingchen" clearly.
Her doubts fell into Qiao Yanqing's mind, but it made him breathe a sigh of relief.
This girl is extremely powerful. If she is really related to Mingchen, there is no need to hide this fact.
Now that she doesn’t know Mingchen, it means that she has no relationship with Mingchen.
Qiao Yanqing felt relieved and said to Jiang Xin in a deep voice, "I killed my own descendants. It has nothing to do with you. If you don't want to cause trouble, just leave here."
Jiang Xin thought he was mentally ill: "You want to kill my brother, how can I just leave him alone?"
Qiao Yanqing was speechless for a moment, and then he said, "I breed the descendants of the Qiao family so that I can be resurrected one day. Without me, where would they come from? They live just to be killed by me, so you don't need to save them."
He is a smart man after all. From the conversation just now, he can tell that Jiang Xin is just a child with strong strength, but his thinking and mind are very immature.
As long as he can make good use of this, he will have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
At first glance, what Qiao Yanqing said made sense, but Jiang Xin always felt that something was odd.
She scratched her hair in annoyance. She couldn't think of how to refute it, so she simply gave up and said to Qiao Yanqing, "Let's not make it so troublesome. Anyway, you want to kill my fourth brother, but I won't allow it. How about this, you two have a fight."
Qiao Yanqing was ecstatic.
Although he had no way to devour Zhao Shi's soul, he would definitely win in a fight.
I have the advantage when it comes to the Tribulation Crossing Stage versus the Golden Core Stage.
However, Jiang Xin's next words brought him back to his original form: "To be fair, both of you should fight at the Jindan stage."
Qiao Yanqing strongly objected: "No, why should I be demoted to the Golden Core Stage? He has the ability, let him advance to the Tribulation Stage!"
Jiang Xin thought it was okay: "Then Fourth Senior Brother, you should try to advance to the Tribulation Crossing Stage first."
Zhao Shi felt that his junior sister thought too highly of him: "You can't advance to the Tribulation Stage just because you want to."
Jiang Xin thought it was not difficult: "I'll help you."
Zhao Shi was tempted and was about to agree, but Qiao Yanqing had a bad feeling and said before he could speak: "He doesn't need to improve his level to the Tribulation Crossing Stage, I will lower my cultivation level myself!"
The abilities displayed by this little ghost were so weird that Qiao Yanqing was really afraid that she was lying to him. She said on the surface that she was helping Zhao Shisheng to overcome the tribulation period, but in fact she was directly summoning the projection of the Immortal Master Mingchen.
Then he will definitely die.
Instead of letting him summon Mingchen, he might as well find a way to get rid of these two little ghosts first.
Qiao Yanqing forced his cultivation to the peak of the Golden Core Stage.
Jiang Xin snorted, but didn't say anything. He raised his hands to cheer Zhao Shi up: "Come on, Fourth Brother! Kill him and avenge the weapon spirit!"
"Okay." Zhao Shi gestured for her to stay away to avoid being affected.
While he was instructing Jiang Xin, Qiao Yanqing took the initiative and summoned three bloody skeletons to attack Zhao Shi at the same time.
Zhao Shi quickly mobilized the spiritual energy in his body and condensed a series of puppet lines invisibly, which sank into the void and drilled into the three bloody skeletons.
The two forces collided, and the first blood-colored skeleton exploded directly. The spiritual energy it stirred up rushed straight into Zhaoshi's sea of consciousness, causing him to feel so much pain that his soul was shaken.
The severe pain made Zhao Shi dazed for a moment, but his hands did not stop moving, still controlling the puppet strings to wrap around the other two skeletons.
An enemy in the Tribulation Stage disguised as a Golden Core Stage is obviously more difficult to deal with. Both their combat awareness and control over spiritual power are beyond the reach of an ordinary Golden Core Stage enemy.
Fortunately, Zhaoshi had often been trained by his senior brothers and sisters in the sect, so he did not fear fighting.
When trying to control the two bloody skeletons again, Zhao Shi was more cautious and paid more attention to concealing his breath.
He successfully avoided Qiao Yanqing's spiritual sense and controlled the two bloody skeletons, making them counterattack Qiao Yanqing.
Qiao Yanqing's expression changed slightly and he flew away from where he was.
Just as he was about to move, Qiao Yanqing suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He didn't know when his back had been covered with thin threads woven with spiritual power.
These threads are thinner than spider silk and contain surging spiritual power.
As soon as Qiao Yanqing made contact with them, before he could dodge, all the thin lines broke, and an extremely powerful vortex of spiritual power burst out and attacked him directly, almost causing Qiao Yanqing's soul to disintegrate on the spot.
He quickly flashed away from the spot, re-condensed his body in the distance, and looked at Zhao Shi in disbelief.
Mingchen was already incredibly strong back then, how come this kid is also so powerful?
"Who taught you how to fight against opponents of higher levels?" Qiao Yanqing asked in shock.
"This is the normal way of fighting." Zhao Shi was so successful that it seemed unreal.
In the past, when he was fighting with his senior brothers and sisters in the sect, once he found that there was a trap behind him by his subordinates, his senior brothers and sisters would immediately turn around and counterattack.
But instead of fighting back, Qiao Yanqing even had time to talk to him.
Zhao Shi couldn't tell whether Qiao Yanqing was really too weak or was trying to divert his attention in this way in order to launch a sneak attack.
Based on his experience of sparring with his senior brothers and sisters in the sect. In all likelihood, the other party was using words to divert his attention in preparation for a surprise attack.
Fortunately, Zhaoshi is a Jindan stage warrior who has experienced many battles.
He was not distracted at all. Not only was he concentrating on setting up a new round of traps with the puppet strings, he was also trying to control Qiao Yanqing.
Qiao Yanqing is a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and Zhao Shi cannot really hit his vital points, but as long as he can break his Jindan Stage appearance and force him to reveal his Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivation, it will prove that he has won the battle.
As long as he can win, when Qiao Yanqing shows his strength in the Tribulation Period, he can seize this opportunity to force Qiao Yanqing out of his sea of consciousness.
By then, if they join forces with the spirits from the outside world and cooperate with the secret treasures carried by their fellow disciples, they might be able to fight.
Zhao Shi's slender white fingers moved rapidly, and countless silk threads emerged from between his fingers, forming an impenetrable net around Qiao Yanqing.
Once these puppet strings are touched, they will explode, causing violent fluctuations in spiritual power.
If it was not triggered, it would penetrate Qiao Yanqing's protective aura and directly hit his soul, trying to control him.
"You don't know your own limitations!" Qiao Yanqing cursed softly and used his spiritual power to shatter the puppet strings that had penetrated into the soul's body.
The broken puppet strings turned into countless spiritual blades, flying to every corner of his soul, causing Qiao Yanqing to feel severe pain all over his body. "Are you a swordsman or a puppeteer?"
"A puppeteer who doesn't want to be a sword practitioner is not a good talisman practitioner." After Zhao Shi finished speaking, the puppet line that emerged from his fingertips outlined an explosive talisman, which exploded directly inside Qiao Yanqing's soul body, causing him to scream miserably in pain.
"ah--"
Which puppeteer uses puppet spirit strings like this? ? ?
He hated this kid who didn't play by the rules! ! !
