Boom! Instantly, endless thunder light surged forth, forming a defensive space around Qin Chen, with strands of lightning merging into the spatial domain. After the transformation of the Thunder Bloodline, this spatial thunder domain evidently became even more terrifying, striking the demon puppets and leaving them charred, with black smoke rising. However, the defenses of these demon puppets were clearly formidable; the spatial thunder domain could only restrict their movements but could not kill them, yet that was still enough.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The moment the spatial thunder domain was formed, Qin Chen's half-moon ancient sword was already summoned. Sword Technique! Endless sword light surged out, lifting countless demon puppet corpses. These corpses flew chaotically under Qin Chen's sword light and thunder, turning to ashes continuously. With every sword strike, at least one demon puppet would fall, and even the strongest among them could not approach Qin Chen to attack.
The methods of attack from these demon puppets were extremely difficult. Either they used brute force to battle Qin Chen, but once they were unable to approach, they opened their mouths wide, spewing out streams of black demonic energy, sweeping towards Qin Chen. "So disgusting." Qin Chen felt an overwhelming sense of nausea, but he dared not let his guard down. The demonic energy spewed forth by these demon puppets was incredibly terrifying, and even his spatial thunder domain might not be able to completely withstand it. If it weren't for the layer of Green Lotus Demon Fire still lingering around his body, this demonic energy would have already entered his body.
Even so, Qin Chen felt a slight dizziness, and his mind began to blur gradually. The amount of demonic energy was simply too much. Even if the spatial thunder domain destroyed a large portion of it and the Green Lotus Demon Fire burned away another layer, there would still be some remnants that would contact Qin Chen. Just that tiny bit, accumulating over time, integrated into his body and affected his soul. "This demonic energy can actually corrode a person's soul?" Qin Chen was secretly alarmed, as the sea of souls surged, and he cast the Heavenly Soul Forbidden Technique, blocking the demonic energy from entering his body, trembling with fear in his heart.
At this moment, Qin Chen had only one thought in his mind: he absolutely could not allow these demon puppets to enter the Tianwu Continent. He could not imagine the consequences if these demon puppets were to invade the Tianwu Continent. These demon puppets were even more insane than the Demon Tribe; under the attack of a group of demon puppets, even a peak Martial God might not be able to withstand it. Even if they could kill these demon puppets, their souls would have already been tainted by the demonic energy they emitted. At that time, the entire continent would become a breeding ground for the Abyss Demon Tribe.
Qin Chen finally understood the horror of the Abyss Demon Tribe. Compared to the Demon Tribe, they were simply much stronger. Although the members of the Demon Tribe were powerful and could even seize human bodies at will, that did not mean they could do as they pleased. Once they seized a body, their cultivation would also decline because of the host. However, the strong ones from the Abyss Demon Tribe were different; the mere demonic energy they exuded from their bodies could turn countless warriors into demon puppets, becoming tireless and mindless fighters.
Thus, Qin Chen exerted all his strength to operate the Sword Technique, where the sword moved with his heart. Countless sword lights surged out, and with each sword light that fell, a demon puppet was killed. After advancing to the late-stage Martial God realm, his true essence was incredibly thick, and his soul power was immensely strong. Later, when he practiced the Ancestral Demon Blood Scripture, he gained an insight that subtly pushed his cultivation towards a breakthrough. Now, amidst this continuous battle, the first sword light he unleashed had yet to dissipate, and even as it flew, the next sword light was already triggered. As time passed, the number of demon puppets here grew increasingly vast, and the sword energy in the spatial thunder domain also surged.
