At first, Ji Mofan thought the two severed limbs came from a human body and did not consider the possibility that they were products of weapon crafting.
After all, apart from not bleeding, the cross-section of that severed limb is virtually indistinguishable from that of a human body.
It wasn't until his severed limb was put back in place that he finally realized what the buzzing sound he had been vaguely hearing was.
It is the product of weapon crafting having a dialogue with itself.
However, because his body was not fully intact just now, the meaning he could express was relatively vague. Ji Mofan also focused all his attention on dealing with the attack, and subconsciously blocked out these things that his brain judged as noise.
This time he heard it clearly: the little puppet was complaining that it didn't want to be controlled by demonic energy.
The specific words cannot be translated one by one, but the emotions are quite clear: he himself hates the feeling of being filled with demonic energy.
Dark aura continuously emanated from his seven orifices and the broken parts of his limbs. Ji Mofan even felt that the little puppet was using its self-awareness as a product of weapon crafting to resist the demonic energy, and instead desperately tried to get closer to the spiritual energy emanating from Ji Mofan.
Of course, this manifested as a puppet radiating demonic energy lunging at him with its claws outstretched, as if it were about to tear Ji Mofan apart at any moment.
The thought that only he could see it made it even funnier.
The demonic cultivators watching from the sidelines were even cheering on the puppet, their eyes shining as if they wished they were the ones fighting.
He could vaguely hear the little black bird chirping.
Despite consuming so many spirit stones, he still crows like a clucking hen; only Xihe could immediately recognize his uniqueness.
Although doing so is somewhat disrespectful to Master Lu Tong...
Ji Mofan tightened his grip on the sword hilt, the cold blade drawing out icy sword flowers.
If we open more openings in the little puppets, the demonic energy should leak out even faster.

The alchemist stood at the edge of the arena, his tightly clenched hands now completely soaked with sweat.
How could the puppets have no effect on Jimo Fan?
He had clearly tested it countless times!
This puppet looked dilapidated and unremarkable; even he had doubted whether he had been cheated when he bought it. But Lu Tong's imprint could indeed be found on it.
Moreover, as long as magic is injected into it, it will devour and accumulate like a gluttonous beast that knows nothing of satiety, and its strength can easily break through to a level that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
After all, cultivators need to comprehend and comprehend their cultivation, and they will encounter bottlenecks. But puppets are like wide-mouthed bottles that go straight up and down; they can eat as much as you feed them.
The reason he made the puppet look so ordinary at his birthday party that day was twofold: firstly, to deceive others, and secondly, to fully demonstrate the puppet's wonders to His Majesty.
Unexpectedly, the guard at the door told him he had no chance after his introduction and urged him to leave quickly with his things.
It seems that... what they are rejecting is the name "Lu Tong".
But is that even possible?
Although Lu Tong was a righteous cultivator, he had provided services to demonic cultivators over the years.
After all, before the war between immortals and demons broke out a thousand years ago, demonic cultivators and righteous cultivators had a period of peaceful coexistence without interfering with each other.
Everything was fine before returning to the main city, so why did the puppet, which was usually invincible, keep failing whenever it came to the main city, whether it was facing the guards of the Demon Palace or a small righteous cultivator like this?
In his daze, the alchemist was completely unaware that the cold blade was already pressed against his throat.
When he came to his senses, he found that his hands and feet were numb, and his dantian was completely empty. The little puppet had completely consumed all his demonic energy.
The puppet he had placed so much hope in only managed to land a few blows on Ji Mofan at the beginning, and then remained at a disadvantage, unable to fight back or even lift its head.
A sharp pain shot through his neck, and he felt blood flowing out, only to be quickly frozen solid at the wound by the cold air. The cold made his head spin.
"Two choices," Ji Mofan's voice rang in his ears.
"Take me to see your pharmaceutical manufacturing site;"
"Or, I can end your life right here."
Only now did the alchemist realize that he hadn't set a trap for Ji Mofan.
Ji Mo Fan had been determined from the beginning to take this opportunity to seek something from himself.
Having figured out the key, the alchemist's clenched fist relaxed slightly. "...I understand. You can choose any medicine person you like."
As long as it's not a matter of taking his life.
The surrounding demonic cultivators had all fallen silent, completely stunned by Ji Mofan's display of fighting the puppet and unsure of what expression to make.
The alchemist had raised the puppet exceptionally well; when it was first brought out, its aura was almost comparable to that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
Unbeknownst to everyone, the little puppet itself disliked the demonic energy and kept spitting it out. Ji Mofan forcefully weakened it with each sword strike until the puppet collapsed and lay motionless on the ground.
After a long while, discussions began to emerge from the crowd.
"No wonder His Majesty kept him around..."
"To defeat an enemy by an entire realm, if I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes today, no one would have believed it."
"Does it seem to me that the puppet wasn't putting in much effort when it was fighting?"
"That's right, you think so? Didn't you see how the puppet's claws almost scratched the righteous kid's face several times?"
"Shouldn't we eliminate such terrifying strength as soon as possible to prevent him from growing stronger and turning against us on the righteous path?"
