King of Creation Chapter 2043 - 2028: Demon Emperor Battle Puppet

Watching the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, and Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan locked in a chaotic melee, Ye Zhen’s army advanced even faster.

The Xuan Ji Avatar even urged on the War Soul Blood Flag, adding Blood Light to bless them, driving the army to swiftly draw away from this chaotic battlefield.

It had to be said, whether it was the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, or Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan, both were extremely hard bones to gnaw.

Ye Zhen could defeat the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, but to kill him and seize that Inherited Blood Banner was nigh impossible.

Leaving everything else aside, the instant Ye Zhen heavily wounded the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, all the Demon Clan Dao Realm auras present locked onto Ye Zhen in an instant, scaring Ye Zhen half to death.

If so many Dao Realm experts charged at him together, Ye Zhen would definitely die without a burial place.

Fortunately, there were still dozens of miles between them, some room to maneuver, and they were not of one heart; only thus did Ye Zhen gain the chance to withdraw.

So, after sowing discord between them, Ye Zhen simply retreated at top speed.

Once the two sides fought each other to mutual ruin, it would not be too late for him to strike again.

Ye Zhen had originally thought these two parties would not fall for it so easily; in his earlier sowing of discord, there had still been many flaws.

But Ye Zhen hadn’t expected that before he had gone far, the two sides would already be fighting a blood-soaked battle on the spot.

In truth, it was mainly because Ye Zhen had not realized just how important this Ancient Demon God Inheritance Secret Realm, filled with white bones, was to the Bone Demon Clan.

The ferocity of that blood battle made Ye Zhen bare his teeth slightly.

This blood-soaked clash had almost entered a white-hot state right from the start.

Colorful poisonous mists surged across the sky, in an instant shrouding the entire battlefield.

But what surprised Ye Zhen was that, having just suffered a great loss at his hands and originally supposed to be retreating step by step, the side of the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, had actually seized the upper hand from the outset.

Curious, Ye Zhen directly activated one Avatar of the Little Demon he had left there and quickly figured out the situation.

Demon Emperor Battle Puppets!

The Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor produced a full hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, instantly seizing the advantage.

Demon Emperor Battle Puppets—Ye Zhen, as the Wind Patrol Envoy of the Heavenly Patrol Department Western Patrol of the Great Zhou Dynasty, knew of them.

They were an extremely powerful type of war puppet used within the Demon Clan.

They were refined from the corpses of clansmen of the One-eyed Demon Emperor Lineage who had fallen in past battles, using Secret Techniques unique to the Demon Emperor Lineage, and further Condensed Refinement of War Soul and killing intent unique to their lineage, forging puppets of unmatched might.

As dead things, these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets were restricted by the Heaven and Earth Dao; at most, their power could only reach Peak of Ninth Stage Realm King Realm and could never be raised to Dao Realm.

A dead thing can never touch the threshold of Dao Realm.

However, the main materials used to refine these dead things—the bones and flesh of clansmen of the One-eyed Demon Emperor Lineage—were incomparably powerful.

Because ordinary clansmen of the One-eyed Demon Emperor Lineage, even if their Cultivation was only in the Realm King Realm, had Physical Strength comparable to Dao Realm Experts, and even far surpassed those Dao Realm Experts who did not temper their bodies.

Just like the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, so fierce that with Ninth Stage Peak of Realm King Realm Cultivation, he could slaughter ordinary Dao Realm experts like chopping melons and cutting vegetables.

Therefore, if on the battlefield someone of the One-eyed Demon Emperor Lineage fell, then no matter the price, the Demon Clan would reclaim the corpse bones.

First, because these bones were incomparably precious; second, because the Bloodline of the One-eyed Demon Emperor Lineage, even ordinary branches, was extremely rare.

Once these bones were gathered, they would be refined into Demon Emperor Battle Puppets with Secret Techniques.

These Demon Emperor Battle Puppets possessed terrifying Combat Power, lacked pain, feared no death; each one’s Combat Power was comparable to Dao Realm.

Normally, these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets would not appear on the main battlefield.

The Demon Emperor would treat them as treasures, rewarding meritorious Demon Clan members as bodyguards.

At critical moments, these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets could fearlessly protect their masters as they fought their way out, covering the retreat; they were absolutely reliable Death Soldiers that would never fail.

Normally, when the Demon Emperor rewarded someone with Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, even one or two was a tremendous honor; ten was the limit.

Ten battle puppets that could withstand Dao Realm attacks, whose Combat Power rivaled Dao Realm, and still fought to the death without retreat—how terrifying was that?

Yet here, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, had a full hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets!

A hundred of them!

When Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan saw these hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, his heart nearly shattered!

He knew the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, would certainly carry these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, Death Soldiers whose Combat Power rivaled Dao Realm, but had never imagined there would be a hundred!

This was equivalent to a hundred Dao Realm experts!

And a hundred Dao Realm Death Soldiers at that!

The instant these hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets joined the fray, the Bone Demon Legion on Bai Fan’s side immediately fell into disadvantage.

Even Bai Fan himself was besieged by seven Demon Emperor Battle Puppets; under this utterly reckless, life-ignoring style of assault, Bai Fan himself was thrown into confusion.

The few Bone Demon Demon Lords under his command fared even worse, beaten back step by step by equal numbers of Demon Emperor’s Puppets, bones flying everywhere.

In such a situation, the legion under the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, whose morale had previously plummeted to the extreme, saw their morale surge sharply.

Moreover, under the deterrence of these hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, the several other Demon Clan Dao Realm experts the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, had gathered all put away their spectator mindset and fought hard.

In an instant, shattered bones of the Bone Demon Legion fluttered across the sky like drifting snowflakes.

Still focusing entirely on restoring his injuries, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, cast a venomous glance in the direction of Ye Zhen’s retreat, his hatred for Bai Fan deepening.

Earlier, in his battle with Ye Zhen, he had had absolutely no chance to release these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

Furthermore, although the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets possessed terrifying Combat Power, each time they were used, once their power was fully expended, they had to be brought back into the War Puppet Spirit Pool within the War Puppet Pool, soaking for three days and nights in a brew refined from vast quantities of Supreme Spirit Stones to fully restore their Combat Power.

In other words, although these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets were powerful, with Spiritual Power within as vast as Dao Realm, once expended they could not recover on their own; thus they could not sustain prolonged combat. Once their Spiritual Power was exhausted, they could rely only on their bodies to fight.

Therefore, unless the situation was truly critical, no one was willing to deploy these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets.

Now forced to the limit by Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan and compelled to deploy these Demon Emperor Battle Puppets, he had indeed seized the upper hand by borrowing their Combat Power, but his heart burned with rage.

Demon Emperor Battle Puppets that were never to be used except at critical moments had been wasted like this!

The Combat Power of the Demon Emperor Battle Puppets was unimaginably horrific, equivalent to a hundred Dao Realm-level, brutally lethal, fearless fighters. Charging into the Bone Demon Army was like tigers among wolves; in less than an hour, they had cut Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan’s legion to pieces.

If not for the fact that most of Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan’s troops were skeletons without emotion and incapable of feeling fear, their morale would likely have already collapsed.

Even so, the few Bone Demon Dao Realm experts Bai Fan had brought were already covered in wounds, their bones nearly torn apart.

Lightly flexing his newly regrown legs, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, suddenly shuddered again.

The agony of his lower body being burnt to ash in the battle with Ye Zhen surged back into his mind.

In all his years, it was the first time he had tasted such pain.

"I will surely execute this wretched thief!" Seventh Prince Cong Yun clenched his iron fists until they crackled, and the surrounding void seemed to tremble in response.

"Bai Fan, if you submit to this Crown Prince now, you still have a chance!" Seeing that the situation was almost set, the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, spoke again.

Of course, there was another reason: the Seventh Crown Prince of the Demon Emperor, Congyun, did not wish to waste all the power of his hundred Demon Emperor Battle Puppets on Bai Fan’s Bone Demon Legion.

To behead all of a hundred thousand Bone Demon troops would take an enormous effort!

Although within his self-contained One Realm little world he carried a War Puppet Spirit Pool and a vast stock of Supreme Spirit Stones, he did not necessarily have three days and nights to restore their strength.

So at this moment, saving a bit of their power was saving what little he could.

Bone Demon Lord Bai Fan, already killing in a red haze with a hideously ferocious expression, roared back, "Submit?"

"Keep dreaming your autumn fantasies; unless you yield this Ancient Demon God inheritance to us!"

"You’re courting death!"

"Don’t think only your Demon Emperor Lineage has trump cards!"

With a furious howl, blazing green flames suddenly erupted from Bai Fan’s body, soaring into the sky. "Ten Thousand Bone Divine!"
