Fortunately, the surroundings were full of monsters and demons that were constantly attacking, so no one noticed the situation on Zhang Yifeng's side for a while.
All the monks in Huangzhou were trapped in a bitter battle, and the people brought by Zhang Yifeng were no exception. Yuan Ling, who usually roamed the battlefield, was now besieged by several demon officers.
Kong Ling and Kong Ming were also defeated by the joint efforts of demons and monsters. Qian Santong, who had just been promoted to the tribulation stage, and Jin Shan, who had come to support them, each faced off against two other demon generals.
One of them is a real demon, but the other one is different. Although he has demonic energy, his movements are not that of a demon, but rather he looks like a human.
This man was fighting Qian Santong. Qian Santong's cultivation level was lower than Jinshan's, so Jinshan simply let him deal with that guy who was obviously a puppet.
The fight between Qian Santong and this puppet was also inseparable, while Jinshan relied on the characteristics of his own skills to overwhelm the fighting general.
In the chaos, Zhang Yifeng released the demon body form and returned to its original appearance.
After putting away all the weapons of Tuoba Yue and the others, Zhang Yifeng pulled out the Sky-Splitting Mark and killed the demons next to the nearest Kong Ling and Kong Ming.
The level of demons and monsters faced by Kong Ling and Zhang Yifeng was very easy, so rescuing them was the fastest option.
After quickly helping Kong Ling and the two men escape the siege, Zhang Yifeng went to Yuan Ling's side and killed all the demon officials who were besieging Yuan Ling.
Zhang Yifeng took a look at the situation and realized that Jinshan did not need support for the time being, and was suppressing the Demon General throughout the whole process.
On the contrary, Qian Santong has just broken through the tribulation period, and his strength has not yet stabilized.
Zhang Yifeng frowned slightly when he saw this. He seemed to have felt this familiar feeling somewhere before.
The man in black robe who was fighting Qian Santong didn't seem to be a demon, but a puppet.
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Yifeng calmed down a little, then a streak of demonic energy shot out from the palm of his hand without leaving a trace and fell on the black-robed man.
After exploring the black-robed man's body for a moment, Zhang Yifeng discovered the thread connecting the black-robed man and the manipulator behind him.
Following the thread, Zhang Yifeng found the man who manipulated the puppet. His methods seemed to be those of the remnants of the Blood Puppet Pavilion.
It's just that the Blood Puppet Pavilion has been cleaned up, so why is there still a fish slipping through the net?
With a frown, Zhang Yifeng directly arrested the Blood Puppet Pavilion monk who was disguised as a demon and was hiding in the battlefield.
This guy not only uses Blood Puppet Pavilion's magic, he is also a monk who has transcended the tribulation stage.
Everyone knows that the original owner of the Blood Puppet Pavilion, Ximen Hou, was a monk who had transcended the tribulation period. Where did this guy come from?
The spiritual energy pierced the man's disguise, and the image of a skinny old man with white hair and beard appeared in front of Zhang Yifeng.
Looking at Zhang Yifeng's warning eyes, the monk decisively withdrew his connection with the man in black robe, not daring to resist Zhang Yifeng at all.
After losing the connection of the silk thread, the puppet that was fighting Qian Santong stopped immediately. Qian Santong, who didn't know anything, went up and knocked the black-robed puppet dozens of meters away with one palm.
"Sir, my lord, I have followed your instructions. I wonder if you can stop letting your comrades destroy my puppets?"
The skinny old man rubbed his hands, looked at Zhang Yifeng with a flattering expression, and said cautiously.
With a raised brow, Zhang Yifeng did not agree to him. He just sent a spiritual message to Qian Santong, asking him to stop torturing the man in black robe and just go and help Jinshan.
Seeing that Qian Santong no longer tortured his puppet, the skinny old man felt relieved.
"If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, and I will definitely tell you everything!"
"I saw that when you controlled the puppet to fight against Senior Qian, you didn't seem to kill anyone. It seems that you didn't sincerely surrender to the demon clan."
"My lord, you have wrongly blamed me. I did not surrender to the demons, I was captured by them."
"Some of them poisoned me. As long as the poisoner makes one move, I will be poisoned and die. I dare not disobey them."
The skinny old man said bitterly, with a look of resentment in his eyes.
As a monk in the tribulation stage, how could he not feel aggrieved when the demons used such despicable means as poisoning to tie him up on a ship?
"Looking at your ability to manipulate puppets, you should be from the Blood Puppet Pavilion. I remember the Blood Puppet Pavilion, right?"
"The Blood Puppet Pavilion has been wiped out, but it has nothing to do with me. I and Ximen Hou were brothers from the same sect. In order to get the upper hand, he trapped me under the cliff. I only escaped from the cliff two years ago and have been accumulating strength.
, I didn’t expect that when I broke through the tribulation stage, the Blood Puppet Pavilion would have been destroyed by others.”
The skinny old man shook his head and said that his life was miserable enough. He could have been the leader of a sect, but he was tricked by his junior brother.
When he came out to seek revenge, he found that his enemies had been wiped out.
He originally wanted to retreat into the mountains, but was captured by the demons again. His life was simply a tragedy.
"I see, let me see the poison in your body."
Zhang Yifeng nodded. Looking at the skinny old man's appearance, what he said was not false.
Zhang Yifeng took a step forward, probed the spiritual energy into the old man's body, and soon found a black spot in the old man's heart.
This poison is indeed very concealable, and its toxicity is also very strong. Ordinary monks have no way of doing anything about it.
It's a pity that this poison met Zhang Yifeng, the master of detoxification. A little bit of poison can be eliminated with a big return pill.
Zhang Yifeng took out a Great Return Pill from the storage ring and handed it to the skinny old man.
"Now is the critical moment for the human race. No matter what happened in the past, the matter of the Blood Puppet Pavilion can be put aside. Now, I ask you, old sir, to take this elixir and rejoin the human camp."
Zhang Yifeng handed the pill to the skinny old man. Seeing this, the old man gritted his teeth and took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp.
Anyway, this is already the worst situation. How can it get worse?
What's more, looking at the righteous look on the boy's face, it doesn't look like he would do anything like the demons, using poison to control people.
After taking the Da Huan Dan, it didn't take long for the locked poisons in the skinny old man's body to be excreted one by one.
Feeling the vitality of the new hair in his body, a gleam appeared in the eyes of the skinny old man.
"Thank you for your help, little friend. I will definitely help the humans and defeat the demons in this battle!"
After the skinny old man finished speaking, spiritual lights suddenly lit up on his hands, and puppets in black robes appeared behind him.
"Little friends, don't be confused. The refining methods of these puppets are different from those of the Blood Puppet Pavilion. These puppets of mine are made from spiritual creatures from heaven and earth."
Seeing the look of concentration in Zhang Yifeng's eyes, the skinny old man knew what Zhang Yifeng was thinking and quickly explained to Zhang Yifeng.
