Shui Qingchen looked at the giant hammer formed by Demon Lord No. 1 using demonic energy, snorted coldly, and said, "All show and no substance."
Her hammer is no ordinary giant hammer.
This was the one Shui Qingchen used to smash the alchemy furnace. Although the alchemy furnace wasn't exactly a weapon, it was made with extremely hard dark crystals. Dark crystals were not only hard but also fire-resistant, making them the main material of the alchemy furnace.
In the past, Shui Qingchen only used ordinary giant hammers to smash the alchemy furnace, but later he found it not satisfying enough. So, during one of his training trips, he went to the Dark Auction House and bought this pair of giant hammers at a high price.
These two giant hammers were crafted from a giant tree that was born from the primordial chaos. After being polished by Shui Qingchen for so many years, they have long become her natal magic weapons and have even cultivated a weapon spirit.
Demon Lord Number One, with his meager demonic energy, could only condense into a demonic hammer that resembled a giant hammer!
Sure enough, when Shui Qingchen's giant hammer, which was enveloped in heavenly fire, collided with the giant hammer formed from the demonic energy of Demon Lord No. 1, the demonic hammer was immediately shattered.
"It doesn't work!" Demon Lord Number One was somewhat surprised, but he quickly snorted and said, "Then let's try this!"
As he spoke, demonic energy condensed, forming a fine net that enveloped Shui Qingchen.
Shui Qingchen felt that the net of demonic energy was somewhat different. Sure enough, the net of demonic energy was not only tough, but also sticky.
After entering the net, Shui Qingchen felt that her spiritual energy was somewhat stagnant within her body.
"Demonic energy has entered your body! I'd like to see if you can still jump around like that!" Demon Lord Number One said coldly.
Shui Qingchen's movements became slower and slower, which was very strange. She hurriedly used her divine sense to examine herself and found that the black demonic energy was actually entering her meridians in wisps.
The once broad meridians, due to the invasion of sticky and resilient demonic energy, have transformed from a turbulent river into a babbling brook.
If no solution is found, her meridians will be completely blocked by these strange demonic energies.
Immediately afterwards, Shui Qingchen discovered that he also found this demonic energy in his own sea of consciousness.
Shui Qingchen wanted to expel the demonic energy, so she summoned heavenly fire.
Heavenly fire is useful, but in the face of these wisps of demonic energy, heavenly fire is like a lit match, simply not enough to clear away so much demonic energy.
Finally, Shui Qingchen was completely enveloped by black demonic energy, like an insect wrapped in a cocoon.
Demon Number One sneered, and then it opened its blood-red maw and swallowed the demonic cocoon containing Shui Qingchen whole!
"Elder Shui Qingchen!" Qiu Feiyang exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Yueli quickly made a move, purple lightning swirling around him, and a booming sound echoed in the air.
Then, dark clouds loomed over Demon One's head, and a bolt of lightning, several meters long, struck down. However, the lightning posed no threat to Demon One.
He even grinned and let out a burp.
"Spit the person out!" Gu Yueli was also furious.
He, a Nascent Soul stage ancestor, was still here, yet this Demon Clan Number One swallowed someone whole right under his nose!
Demon Lord Number One did not linger in battle; its movements were swift, and in a few leaps, it had already darted into the darkness.
The Demon Realm is the Demon Lord's domain. If he wants to hide, even Gu Yue Li cannot find his whereabouts quickly.
"Damn demonic cultivator!" Gu Yueli was furious.
Above his head, dark clouds filled the sky, and even the entire Demon Realm was covered in dark clouds. He wanted to strike the Demon Realm down with lightning!
However, even though he was a Nascent Soul stage ancestor, his lightning-attribute spiritual power could only consume a very small portion of the demonic energy.
In the end, Gu Yueli did not waste his spiritual power; he had to protect his fellow cultivators.
Qiu Feiyang's face was extremely ugly. He was filled with regret. Why didn't he join Shui Qingchen in attacking back then?
If the two of them acted together, at least they would have someone to look after them, preventing the Demon Lord No. 1 from swallowing Shui Qingchen whole.
"Ancestor!" Qiu Feiyang gritted his teeth and said, "I'll go find Elder Shui and bring him back."
"And then you were also wrapped up in a cocoon and swallowed whole by that Demon Lord Number One?" Shui Qingchen said irritably.
Qiu Feiyang remained silent for a long while before saying, "I'll arrange for the puppets!"
Along the way, Su Qing led the team, while Qiu Feiyang fought alone like everyone else. He kept improving his combat power. Although he awakened a soul puppet and worked with Protector Jiang to create a puppet army, he had no use for it and it had been gathering dust in his storage space.
Qiu Feiyang summoned the puppet army.
Gu Yueli was taken aback.
"An army of 50,000 puppets!" Qiu Feiyang said. "These puppets were made by me and Protector Jiang together using extremely hard black bones, and they are controlled by my divine sense. Each puppet's combat power is comparable to that of a Core Formation stage cultivator."
Gu Yueli felt a tightness in her throat. It was one thing for the sect to produce two freakish geniuses, Su Qing and Xuan Qingye, but how come Qiu Feiyang was also so strong?
Gu Yueli was a Nascent Soul stage elder, and his impression of Qiu Feiyang was that of a conventional Xuanling Sect elder, who seemed unremarkable in his eyes.
Who would have thought that after Qiu Feiyang formed his Nascent Soul, he awakened a talent skill? Is this cheating?
An army of 50,000 puppets! Each puppet is as powerful as a Core Formation stage cultivator.
This is equivalent to him controlling a standard army of Core Formation stage cultivators all by himself. If he were to return to his sect, the Xuanling Sect could directly dominate the entire Wuyuan Continent.
"However, it didn't last long enough, only half an hour," Qiu Feiyang said.
Gu Yueli then felt a little more relaxed in her throat.
If he could control this indefinitely, Qiu Feiyang could sweep across half of the Wuyuan Continent by himself. Fortunately, there are still limitations.
However, even half an hour is extremely incredible!
“Elder Qiu, if you control five thousand puppets, you will have five hours of control time,” said Protector Jiang. “This Demon Realm is not small. These puppets can be deployed in rotation throughout the entire Demon Realm.”
Gu Yueli thought she should just get dizzy for a bit.
Are you kidding me? Five thousand Core Formation stage puppets, controlled for five hours?
Qiu Feiyang's talent skill is truly overpowered.
"Protector Jiang is right, I'll control them in batches. These damned demons, not a single one can escape!"
Qiu Feiyang is anxious, Shui Qingchen, you must not die, you must not die, wait for us to save you.
At this moment, Shui Qingchen, who was trapped, was plunged into darkness. Her body was frozen by the demonic energy and she was completely still!
However, deep within her sea of consciousness, there was still a glimmer of light—the last struggle of the Heavenly Fire!
