Vile Dominion

Chapter 27: Demon Li Gang

On the day of Test

Everyone from all the factions are gathered here again. Jiang Wushuang looked at everyone and nodded. 

"Since everyone is here. Then let us start the third test. You can see here, hundreds of small buildings are present. All you have to do is enter these and battle the puppets. The number of puppets you defeat would be your score. Remember that, each puppet is of same cultivation level as yours, but they don't have any Secret Techniques and Spiritual Imprint to back them up. Take these talisman and enter the buildings. If you feel that you could no longer continue, then break these talisman. If you overestimate yourself and don't come out, then you might even die."

Hearing that, everyone was stunned and they finally became serious.

Long Yifan murmured. "This time, I would definitely win. I won't let those lowborn surpass me."

Soon, everyone entered the buildings and started fighting. But, not long after, the elimination began. 

After all, fighting someone of similar cultivation is not easy. Most of them were able to defeat one, but when they fought with two, they started feeling difficulties.

After one hour, 80% of them were eliminated.

Li Yuxong's fight

He is currently fighting 8 puppets at the same time. Using Sword Step and Sword Slash, he is effectively able to dodge and attack them. But, instead of getting any advantage, he is continuously being suppressed.

But, he continued his fight. Finally, he awakened his Spiritual Imprint.

"Poplar Resilience"

His veins turned green, and a tree shaped mark appeared on top of his forehead. As soon as this Spiritual Imprint was used, his temperament changed. His soul has increased to Grade 5 peak, and so does his Spiritual Imprint.

All his exhaustion swept away, and he started attacking even strongly. Soon, he suppressed and destroyed all of them.

Next, He immediately went to next stage. What greeted him were 16 puppets. Without waiting, he attacked immediately, but this time, he faced much more difficulty. His wounds increased and healed, and he was continuously being suppressed. 

Soon, he slashed one of the puppet, but, the pressure didn't reduce a bit. 'I can't go on like this!'

He immediately took back 'Poplar Resilience' and shouted. "Spiritual Imprint: Warp Walker"

As soon this appeared, a dark shadow covered his various parts of body, like dark tattoos engraved within it, with various peculiar shapes.

Warp Walker allows him to gain slight control of Space, and use it to travel through it.

Like shadows, he appeared and disappeared instantly, killing various puppets instantly. But he felt his Spiritual Essence is reduced by 90%!

He sighed. "It seems I have to keep the talisman in hand during the next fight."

In the next stage, 32 Puppets appeared. 

This time, he again used the Warp Walker, and destroyed 5 of them, before using the talisman to come out.

While all these were going on, something strange happened in Tang Liuyue's fight.

Tang Liuyue was fighting 8 puppets.

But, as soon as she awakened her Spiritual Imprint, her body became paralysed. She could no longer move, and could only watch as the puppets surrounded her.

She wanted to scream, but no voice came out. She died miserably, but there was no one to pity her.
