#725 - Chapter 725 Rise

"Come again, I don't believe I can't cure you!" the Puppet Soldier Captain declared, clearly unconvinced.

Before Wang Xuan could reply, he felt the surrounding scenery change.

"Thump, thump, thump!" As soon as he spoke, several puppet soldiers, each wielding weapons, rushed towards him, following the Puppet Soldier Captain.

Wang Xuan was about to dodge when, with a "thump," he tripped and fell flat on his face.

When he finally got up, he found himself surrounded by complete darkness, unable to see his own fingers. If an ordinary person were to enter, they would undoubtedly be unable to move an inch.

However, for the puppet soldiers, this was not a problem at all. Suddenly, the Puppet Soldier Captain waved his hand, and with a series of "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Hiss, hiss, hiss!" in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen fireballs rose up, carried by the wind, and floated in the low air, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime.

"Swish!" But in the next moment, the Puppet Soldier Captain, located in the middle of the firelight, became the target. A dark shadow flashed like lightning, hitting the Puppet Soldier Captain directly in the chest.

"Bang!" Clang! The caught-off-guard Puppet Soldier Captain immediately fell backward, crashing into the rock wall. However, despite their leader taking a heavy blow, the puppet soldiers all seemed indifferent, not even bothering to help him up.

Because the Puppet Soldier Captain didn't need help. He suddenly flipped over and leaped to his feet. In the next moment, he reached out and pulled out the object that had been lodged in the seam of his metal armor. It was a sharp beast bone, emitting a foul stench of death. Clearly, it was a sneak attack from a corpse beast in the darkness.

"Crack!" In an instant, the Puppet Soldier Captain crushed the beast bone, then grabbed his black iron heavy sword and walked forward.

Unable to express his emotions, the Puppet Soldier Captain could only walk forward silently. However, the surrounding puppet soldiers clearly felt the fire spiritual energy within him rapidly boiling. This emotion was called—anger!

"Awoo-oo-oo!" As soon as he thought it, a Soul-Devouring Corpse Beast rushed out of the dim corner like mad, baring its fangs and claws as it charged towards the Puppet Soldier Captain.

"Crack!" The Puppet Soldier Captain simply flicked his wrist, and the black iron heavy sword directly split the opponent in two. The corpse fell to the ground with a thud, but the Puppet Soldier Captain didn't even look at it, continuing forward as the puppet soldiers behind him incinerated the remains.

"Thwack, thwack, thwack!" Suddenly, three more slender beast bones shot through the air, heading straight for the Puppet Soldier Captain.

But the same trick wouldn't work again. The Puppet Soldier Captain deliberately showed off his skills, suddenly releasing all the fire spiritual energy in his body.

"Boom!" The fierce fire suddenly surged forward for more than ten feet, burning the three beast bones into ashes in mid-air.

Immediately afterward, the Puppet Soldier Captain charged straight forward. His thinking was very simple. Now he had only one thought—revenge!

"Swish, swish, swish!"

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

In an instant, more than a dozen fierce flame sword beams shot towards the front.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and Wang Xuan didn't have time to react at all.

He saw the Puppet Soldier Captain fighting with some unknown家伙.

The flame sword beams arrived, and the Soul-Devouring Corpse Beast that had launched the sneak attack was so scared that it wet itself. This guy wanted to run, but unfortunately, the sword beams had sealed off all escape routes in front, behind, left, and right. It had no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth, so it could only wait for death in place!

"Tear, tear, tear!"

"Wang Xuan, what are you still spacing out for? Come out!"

At this time, Xiao Bai had already worked with Ye Xiaoyao and Ye Wuxin to eliminate most of the puppet soldiers.

Turning around, he found that Wang Xuan was gone.

After Ye Qingjun's clumsy gestures, he realized that Wang Xuan had been confused by the formation set up by the puppet soldiers from another world.

In the Soul-Bewildering Formation, Wang Xuan couldn't hear the outside sounds at all.

At this time, he was walking straight along the road towards the Puppet Soldier Saint Emperor.

With just a little more effort, the Puppet Soldier Saint Emperor was about to pierce Wang Xuan's shoulder blade.

"Wang Xuan!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Bai's eyes immediately turned red.

"Please, fellow disciples, work together. Success or failure depends on this one move!"

With Lin Yaoyao absent, Xiao Bai became the head of the group.

At this time, his appearance was still that of a child, but his face revealed an unspeakable sense of responsibility and duty.

Therefore, many people who originally didn't want to listen to Xiao Bai's orders now squeezed towards Xiao Bai one after another.

"Focus your divine souls, unify the formation!"

"The vastness of the sky, the breadth of the earth, absorb!"

As Xiao Bai solemnly chanted, everyone formed a circle.

Within the formation were the puppet soldiers who had previously escaped from the formation.

At this moment, everyone was extremely solemn, with solemn expressions, looking in the direction of the formation, incomparably sacred.

Spiritual power poured out from everyone's bodies continuously. Many people turned pale in an instant due to the extraction of spiritual power, but no one gave up.

Within the formation, the puppet soldiers didn't even try to stop them, because they believed in their own strength.

"Thwack, thwack, thwack!" In the next moment, the puppet soldiers swung their double axes at the entrance of the cave, turning the two rushing corpse beasts into minced meat. The remaining Soul-Devouring Corpse Beasts were also besieged by the puppet soldiers and died miserably!

"Wang Xuan, do you see that? If you don't surrender, they will be your fate!"

The Puppet Soldier Saint Emperor raised his head high, completely not taking Xiao Bai and his group seriously.

In their opinion, Xiao Bai and his group were just a bunch of children who still smelled of milk.

Who would take them seriously?

However, as time passed, Xiao Bai and their persistence allowed the puppet soldiers to see the truth of the saying that there is strength in numbers.

"Surrender quickly. Your leader, the King of Yue, is already dead."

"There's no point in you continuing to fight."

Seeing that the puppet soldier formation was a bit disorganized, Xiao Bai took the opportunity to add fuel to the fire, shouting at the puppet soldiers.

They intended to disrupt the morale of the puppet soldiers.

As the saying goes, if the morale of the army is unstable, the army will eventually fall apart.

Especially the puppet soldiers who originally had no consciousness or soul.

The puppet soldiers listened to Xiao Bai's words and immediately looked at each other for a while, and the ranks became even more chaotic.

"Don't deceive us. We know our Emperor's situation better than you..."

The Puppet Soldier Saint Emperor said, but towards the end, even he lacked confidence.

They couldn't deny that Xiao Bai had accidentally guessed a part of the truth.

But they still stubbornly said, "This matter cannot be decided so decisively. We know our Emperor."

The puppet soldiers' steps were all messed up, but they only repeated this sentence over and over again.

Xiao Bai narrowed his eyes coldly, seeing through the puppet soldiers' guilt.

Immediately, he shouted loudly, yelling at everyone together, "Combine!"
