Chapter 1884: Shattered Body and Bones, a City in Mourning
But... Clang!
Just as Murong Jianyun tried to withdraw from the battle, Pei Chang’s blade blocked his way: "Want to go back? Dream on!"
In an instant, Murong Jianyun was firmly held back.
Meanwhile, Pei Yupo stood beside Pei Kuang’s golden Spiritual Puppet.
He looked exaggeratedly at Sikong Jing, who was still frantically forming arrays, and said coldly: "Soul Dominator’s Heir, this is my father’s Spiritual Shadow Battle Puppet, did you get a good look?"
At this moment, Pei Yupo openly admitted it was his father Pei Kuang’s Spirit Puppet...
Of course, he didn’t actually say "Pei Kuang."
Then, he said sinisterly: "You’ve pushed me to extremes, now I want you dead, even if it costs everything. I want to see you regret and roar in madness."
"Hahaha..."
As Pei Yupo spoke, he laughed maniacally, his face twisted to the extreme under his mask. Then he commanded fiercely: "Spirit Puppet, attack!"
Bang...
The golden Spirit Puppet moved at Pei Yupo’s command.
It flashed and disappeared from his Divine Shuttle Main Battle Ship, only to reappear in front of Sikong Jing’s Soldier Killing Array in Willow Leaf City. Then, the golden Spirit Puppet launched an attack!
This Spirit Puppet, infused with Pei Kuang’s terrifying power, erupted with Holy Martial Stage strength greater than that of Pei Chang and Murong Jianyun.
Suddenly... Wow!
At this moment, Ye Wushen and the others hadn’t fully reacted, unaware of the situation, but they all simultaneously coughed up blood.
The entire Soldier Killing Array was almost shattered to pieces at this time.
As the Main Array Master, Sikong Jing spat out a mouthful of blood, his skin covered in fresh blood like cracked blood marks.
Underfoot, the Split Armor Flying Scorpion kept cracking, its armor shell frantically breaking apart.
Even with the protection of the Soldier Killing Array, and despite having top-level Emperors like Beicang and Ye Wushen, they could only barely hold on.
Faces were filled with utmost shock...
At this moment, Pei Yupo’s voice boomed: "The first breath..."
As he spoke, the golden Spirit Puppet flashed again.
It flashed through the broken Soldier Killing Array, lunging directly at Sikong Jing... And at this moment, Sikong Jing’s body suddenly radiated a torrent of Demon Intent. He knew that to defend against the golden Spirit Puppet, he would probably need to become Demonized.
If he continued forming arrays, many people might be shocked to death!
However, just as Sikong Jing was about to Demonize... Whoosh!
A figure suddenly blocked Sikong Jing – amazingly, Murong Jianyun had returned, having broken through Pei Chang’s obstruction to charge back desperately.
As he returned, the golden puppet shadow appeared... Boom!
Murong Jianyun stood firmly in front of Sikong Jing, blood spurting wildly. He said, "Sikong Jing, run... Find a place to ward off Pei Kuang’s Spirit Puppet; it can only last for one more breath."
Murong Jianyun was, of course, familiar with the Spirit Puppet.
As the leader of Overlord Commerce, his knowledge was far greater than most people.
Such Spiritual Shadow Battle Puppets couldn’t be mass-produced. After emerging, they naturally couldn’t exist for long; otherwise, Pei Kuang would have conquered the Central Plains long ago. So, delaying was key.
Hearing this, Sikong Jing shuddered, his eyes suddenly turning towards the direction of the Willow Leaf Holy Wall.
Without hesitation, he turned and dashed...
Only the Willow Leaf Holy Wall could defend against Pei Kuang’s Spiritual Shadow Battle Puppet.
Within Willow Leaf City, only it could withstand.
And just as Sikong Jing turned and dashed out, Murong Jianyun also collided with the Willow Leaf Soldiers with a "Wow" sound, heavily crashing to the ground.
He continuously spat blood, his injuries worsening...
Yet, he frantically stood up, shouting, "Form the array, we need to keep holding... Qian Demon Fighting Saint!"
This was no time to rest, no time to heal.
No time to see if Sikong Jing could escape the pursuit of the Spirit Puppet, they had to form the array, stop the pursuing Qian Demon Fighting Saint!
If not for his injuries from the Feng Leibao battle, Murong Jianyun could have held Pei Kuang’s Spirit Puppet for three breaths, but the puppet was not the real Pei Kuang. However, there were no "ifs."
"The second breath... One more breath, you can’t escape."
Pei Yupo’s voice was mad and violent. He couldn’t bother what state Murong Jianyun was in now.
He only stared intently at the Spirit Puppet, watching the golden Spirit Puppet flash above the Willow Leaf Soldiers, disappearing, then relentlessly heading towards Sikong Jing, piercing through layers of space in an instant...
Leaving only golden afterimages, quick to the utmost.
The Sikong Jing in front also sped up to the utmost, with no time even to wield the Emperor’s Artifact for blocking.
As the Spirit Puppet neared the last breath, he finally reached the Willow Leaf Holy Wall. However, the golden Spirit Puppet also arrived behind him, its aura pressing him so hard that his whole body creaked.
Sikong Jing had no time to turn to the back of the Willow Leaf Holy Wall...
Meaning he couldn’t use the Holy Wall as a shield.
In that instant, Sikong Jing felt a heightened sense of crisis, Demonizing or not flashed through his mind.
But quickly, Sikong Jing harshly discarded the thought of Demonizing.
He pressed his entire back against the Willow Leaf Holy Wall, and also stomped hard on the Split Armor Flying Scorpion. He certainly didn’t want the Split Armor Flying Scorpion to stand with him, to block Pei Kuang’s Spirit Puppet.
Otherwise, the Split Armor Flying Scorpion would die...
The next moment... Bang!
The golden Spirit Puppet struck Sikong Jing directly.
In an instant, Sikong Jing’s body exploded into fragments, shattered against the Willow Leaf Holy Wall.
Just for a moment, the golden Spirit Puppet vanished without a trace.
The three breaths were up!
Just then, Su Yuexi’s scream rang through the clouds: "Brother Jing..."
At this moment, although the people of Willow Leaf City and Nidao City reformed the Soldier Killing Array under Murong Jianyun’s direction, most of their eyes focused on the direction of the Willow Leaf Holy Wall...
From within and outside the Willow Leaf Saint Manor, anyone at the Spirit Martial Stage or above could see that scene.
Meaning, they all saw Sikong Jing being shattered by a single hit from the golden Spirit Puppet.
Shock, confusion, heartbreak... for many, uncontrollable tears flooded their faces, particularly for those from Nidao City.
Especially those like Sect Master Zhang, who had been saved by Sikong Jing.
Their spirits were on the verge of collapse. Now they knew that the Dark Wing Commander and the Soul Dominator’s Heir were the same person, yet he was shattered, never uttering a word.
"Brother Jing, Brother Jing!"
Finally, Su Yuexi’s voice broke the frozen Willow Leaf City once more, as she frantically rushed towards the Willow Leaf Holy Wall.
