From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Meanwhile, in Qing Feng Sect.

It was a gloomy day, with dark clouds looming over the sky.

One of the disciples guarding the stairs leading up to Qing Feng Sect was cursing at his luck.

"What a day to be on guard."

The other guard replied, "Stay alert, remember what the sect master said before he left."

"What’s there to worry about? Who in their right mind would come and attack?"

The first guard shook his head and continued his cursing.

He was looking up at the skies when he felt the other guard nudging him.

"What?" He looked down and saw the other guard with his jaw dropped as he pointed to the front.

Tremble.

Footsteps could be heard from far away, and they got louder and louder.

There was a swarm of men and women marching towards them.

These men and women didn’t look like normal human beings.

They had stitches all over them, and patches of their skin were of different colors.

It was like they were sewn together from different pieces.

"Stop! What do you think you are doing!"

The guards shouted, but the swarm of men and women didn’t bother with them.

They charged at the guards with swords and other weapons in their hands.

"Hurry, go and inform senior martial uncle!"

One of the guards shouted, and the fastest among them ran up the stairs.

The rest of the guards took out a jade pendant, injected their Qi into it, and broke it.

After the jade pendant broke, the Sect’s Protection Formation Array was activated.

A white glow beamed up from the ground, and those men and women near it got pulverized into ashes immediately.

The white glow then encompassed the whole sect, keeping it contained inside its protective sphere.

"Hehehe, as expected," a familiar high-pitched voice said.

The swarm of men and women opened a path as Skin Puppet Diao approached the white glowing wall.

He took out a small dark statue in the shape of a lotus.

A blinding flash came out of the dark statue.

The next moment, a manifest of the Dark Lord was standing in front of the white glowing wall.

The Dark Lord clenched his hand into a fist and punched at it, and the ground shook.

Inside the Formation Peak, elders sat inside a room.

They were seated in positions with scriptures written beneath them and demonic beast cores glowing bright.

As the Dark Lord kept punching at the white glowing wall, the elders frowned as they had to inject more Qi to stabilize the sect’s Protection Formation Array.

The Dark Lord had enough, and he knew he didn’t have much time left.

The situation on the other side wasn’t looking good with the Dark Envoy on the ground.

He raised his hand, and dark liquid oozed out of the men and women standing behind him.

They were Skin Puppets created by Skin Puppet Diao, and the Dark Lord absorbed whatever he could from them.

Those with the dark liquid absorbed by the Dark Lord fell to the ground motionless.

As the dark liquid got into the Dark Lord’s manifestation, he became much more opaque.

His fists glowed with darkness, and he punched both his fists at the white glowing wall again.

Boom.

The ground shook again, and this time the elders in the room coughed out blood.

The white glowing wall started to disappear.

It was not without a price; the Dark Lord became translucent again, much more transparent than before.

"Go away!" The guards shouted as the hordes of Skin Puppets continued their charge at them.

They tried to slash at them, but the Skin Puppets didn’t feel any pain and took the blows.

Very soon, they were overwhelmed by the Skin Puppets.

Rumble.

When the Skin Puppets ascended the long stairs, huge logs with scriptures on them rolled down.

They plowed through the Skin Puppets on the stairs.

Those behind quickly ducked to the side of the stairs.

"Hehehe, looks like they are prepared for us."

Skin Puppet Diao said when he saw the logs coming towards him.

He raised his scrawny hand with veins showing and flicked a needle at the log.

The needle went through the log, and Skin Puppet Diao turned and swung the log out of his way.

Soon there weren’t any more logs coming down from above. Continue your adventure at Freewebnovel

With the coast clear, the remaining hundreds of Skin Puppets continued to ascend up the stairs.

Whoosh.

Arrows rained down on them next.

The arrowheads glowed with a white glow and came down onto the Skin Puppets.

They went through the Skin Puppets, leaving behind huge wounds.

But it didn’t stop the Skin Puppets.

They continued going on with gaping holes in their bodies.

When they finally reached the top, disciples were already in the central square waiting for them.

They stood in precise positions, each and everyone looking out for the person beside them.

It was the Qing Feng Sect sword formation.

When the Skin Puppets in front got near, torrents of Twirling Wind Strike came at them.

They tried to dodge, but some of them still got hit; the Twirling Wind drilled into them and tore them apart.

Those that survived went at the nearest disciples.

But the disciples changed their positions, and it opened up a new line of fire for the disciples waiting behind.

Thud.

Another torrent of Twirling Wind Strike shot at the Skin Puppets.

They got torn up like what had happened earlier.

Soon, there were pieces of flesh and torn limbs all over the central square.

The disciples gripped tightly on their swords as the next wave came.

This time with much more numerous numbers.

Whoosh.

Another torrent of Twirling Wind Strike shot at the incoming Skin Puppets.

But this time, it couldn’t get through all the Skin Puppets, and those Skin Puppets broke through.

Getting in a tussle with the disciples.

"These things are so hard to kill!"

The disciples slashed at the Skin Puppets, but they just took it and continued their attacks.

Thud.

Finally, they couldn’t take on so many Skin Puppets.

And with their positions compromised from the Sword Formation, they couldn’t cover for each other.

"Argh."

Blood splattered as Skin Puppets brought the disciples to the ground.
