Chapter 85

"Whoosh—"

The crisscrossing sounds of blood energy echoed continuously, filling the surrounding space with this intersecting noise.

A blood-colored figure appeared before Xiao Yan. The figure was spread out in a large posture, with four thick, blood-red iron chains around its limbs. At the top of each chain was a massive bloodstone, seemingly blending with everything around it.

Xiao Yan carefully examined the blood-colored figure before him. Elder Zhan also emerged from the tower again, stroking his white beard and chuckled, "This is our unexpected gain—the Blood Demon Puppet. However, you might not be able to fully control it yet. Although the Blood Demon Puppet is sealed, its strength is still no less than that of a Two-Star Dou Di, and its body is extremely powerful. I imagine the bugs outside are its guardians."

"Those bugs are guarding this thing? This thing has the power of a Two-Star Dou Di?"

Upon hearing this, a golden light flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes. A Two-Star Dou Di puppet was indeed a good thing; it would certainly become a great helper for Xiao Yan. The Blood Demon Puppet was formed by the convergence of countless blood energies and spirits, refined by a powerful puppet master. It was extremely resentful but also extremely powerful. However, with Xiao Yan's Imperial Soul Power, he could勉强 control it, though it still needed further refinement.

"Of course, this thing is a pretty good enforcer for you now. Go ahead and take it, but be careful. It has some intelligence, so be cautious."

After saying this, Elder Zhan's figure disappeared again. Xiao Yan looked at the vanished Elder Zhan and smiled bitterly. Elder Zhan really was like Elder Yao. Looking at the Blood Demon Puppet before him, Xiao Yan's dark, calm eyes became passionate. The power of a Two-Star Dou Di, what a good thing. However, Xiao Yan also knew that while it was indeed good, he could feel the intense killing intent from the Blood Demon Puppet and realized that fully refining it would require a lot of effort.

Xiao Yan's figure flashed, and he was already in front of the Blood Demon Puppet. Upon closer inspection, the Blood Demon Puppet seemed to be entirely made of blood. In its almost transparent blood-colored muscles, one could see the blood energy flowing within.

"Damn, let's do it!"

Xiao Yan bit his tongue, and a stream of essence blood spurted out. Instantly, the runes in the sky emitted a faint rumbling sound.

The essence blood quickly entangled the runes in the sky, slowly seeping into them, dyeing the entire rune with an eerie color. Due to the essence blood seeping in, the rune underwent a qualitative change, and powerful soul energy began to emanate from it.

Xiao Yan's fingers curled slightly, and powerful soul energy rapidly condensed at his fingertips. It was clear that Xiao Yan was determined this time. Suspended in the blood-colored space, Xiao Yan's body turned, and with a flick of his finger, a beam of light struck the rune, which then forcefully smashed down toward the Blood Demon Puppet.

This time, the rune did not collapse as expected but instead became even more radiant.

A blinding light emanated from between Xiao Yan's eyebrows, and an immense amount of soul energy surged forth, all converging on the rune.

The rune instantly grew larger and quickly transformed into a faint liquid, flowing into the transparent body of the Blood Demon Puppet. An eerie rune quickly formed within the Blood Demon Puppet's body.

Seeing this, a hint of joy finally appeared on Xiao Yan's face. After several attempts, he had finally planted the soul rune.

The moment Xiao Yan planted the soul rune, the Blood Demon Puppet suddenly opened its eyes, and a thick killing intent immediately spread out. Such intense killing intent made Xiao Yan shiver involuntarily.
