Chapter 1586 289
In fact, the Tomb Master himself doesn't possess any power. If undisturbed by external forces, he is merely a mundane corpse buried here; thus, the difficulty and cost of transforming him into a puppet are not high.However, due to his body's special capacity, not only does it bear a three-colored glow within, but his eyes also emit Buddhist Jing Guang, a series of coincidences that empower this puppet with terrifying strength.
This kind of opportunity is rare and unattainable, requiring the misalignment of Heaven, Earth, and Man.
Zhao Yi felt that it was unlikely he would encounter a second chance like this in his lifetime.
But now, the first thing he must do is send his own body away.
Once a fight erupts in the narrow tomb chamber, his body will undoubtedly suffer.
Perhaps it's because of the chaotic, powerful energy surging within him, this overwhelming sensation makes Zhao Yi find his own body increasingly unsightly.
Without comparison, there is no harm. In contrast, his own body is far too weak, swaying like a willow tree in the wind, truly contemptible.
His arms were tightly restrained on both sides, but his legs were still free to move.
He first kicked "Zhao Yi" upwards, and once "Zhao Yi" was airborne, he kicked "Zhao Yi" out like a ball toward the opening of the thief's tunnel overhead.
Throughout the process, he had to constantly restrain his power because any imbalance in force would cause his real body to be kicked apart by himself.
Above, "Zhao Yi" successfully and safely landed on the ground outside through the thief's tunnel.
Extending the distance from his body caused Zhao Yi's consciousness below to spin and pull, but fortunately, he quickly adjusted.
Likely sensing that this body was once again evidently "out of control," the gold light within Zhao Yi's eyes suddenly flared, causing the tri-colored glow within him to fiercely vie for dominance.
Back when Li was controlling the Tomb Master, he experienced control ties being severed.
Yet the current environment is entirely different from that day.
First, the General beside him opened his mouth and sprayed dense corpse energy toward Zhao Yi's eyes, covering the gold light.
The noble's clothing split open, and bone worms transformed from his skeleton flew out, burrowing into Zhao Yi's chest, straight into his heart, liver, and lungs.
As each region was entered by bone worms, corresponding glows and colors were stimulated.
The two forces within were suppressed back, greatly reducing the pressure of Zhao Yi controlling the puppet.
Evidently, the General and the noble sensed the changes in the "Tomb Master" and began to actively cooperate.
The stance inclination was something Li had established long ago.
Zhao Yi would not change it, nor had any reason to change it, and could only shout internally:
"Great Emperor, you must watch closely. I will fight for you, bleed for you!"
Zhao Yi shook his arms, conveying messages to his allies on both sides.
Sure enough, in the next moment, the General and the noble released their hold on Zhao Yi's arms.
Without hesitation, Zhao Yi raised his right hand, extending his index and middle fingers, and jabbed them into his own eyes!
Just as the fingertips touched his eyes, before he could exert force, an invisible golden barrier had already arisen, followed by the fervent boiling of the Buddhist Jing Guang within.
Zhao Yi knew that his control over this body would be limited in time; he must complete the "self-damage" in the shortest period.
Though Mr. Zhao was not as knowledgeable about the underground chamber as Li Zhiyuan, Zhao Yi's mind was still full of skill techniques. Yet, considering the circumstances, he couldn't find anything suitable.
Given the high level of this confrontation, most techniques weren't even eligible to be wielded.
Uncertain if it was resignation or a critical decision to trust the Old Ancestor, Zhao Yi began to activate the Zhao Family's Secret Technique.
The Zhao Family's Secret Technique had notable advantages in driving various skill techniques, but overall, it wasn't too outstanding, so much so that even the Zhao Family believed their Secret Technique was quite practical yet undeniably mediocre in combat, which is why the Zhao Family persistently sought to augment Jianghu Cultivation Techniques.
But this time, when Zhao Yi applied his family's Secret Technique, his fingers, initially entirely isolated, began to emit a faint blue glow, slowly pressing downward.
It's important to know the power emitting from the eyes originates from that figure, yet the ancient blue glow still breaks through despite the heavy pressure.
Without an overwhelming aura, only resolute progress, even if mountains lie ahead, looking down at his feet, he climbs forward step by step.
Zhao Yi suddenly realized... It isn't his family's Secret Technique that's insufficient; it's his family itself.
The legacy left by Zhao Wuyang is stronger as the person strengthens, following a path of accumulating strength to explode forward, yet later generations find it hard to reach a height to appreciate the same scenery.
A moment of deep reflection surfaced within Zhao Yi's heart, although the ancestor Zhao Wuyang emerged from humble beginnings, the wealth left was exceedingly rich and precious. Jiujiang Zhao never produced another Dragon King; indeed, it's the descendants' ineptitude.
The fingertip entered the eye socket, bringing stinging pain.
However, Zhao Yi was long accustomed to this physical self-mutilation.
His fingertips twisted, changing jab to scoop, forcibly gouging out his own eyes.
These eyes didn't just shine; they burned hotly, even after being removed, they still possessed an intense urge to return to this body.
