two golems

Chapter 8 The Second Golem
On the other hand, Zhu Youchen, relying on the inexplicable layer of protection on his body, went back and forth with the bandits. Although he suffered a lot of injuries, they were all superficial injuries. In addition, with Jiuhong Jue carrying him, it was quite difficult. There is some momentum of getting more and more brave.

If it were a normal person, seeing the scarred man knocked to the ground, he would subconsciously manipulate the puppet to capture the scarred man, in order to threaten the bandits to retreat.

But Zhu Youchen did not do this. Instead, he directly controlled Da Zhuang to pursue the victory, leaped in the air, bent his knees and fell towards the scarred man.

Immediately afterwards, with a frightened scream from the scarred man, his entire chest was instantly crushed by Da Zhuang, killing him on the spot.

The sudden change shocked everyone. Even Xiong Ba, Xiong Shaolong and his son were frightened by Zhu Youchen's brutal operations.

At this time, the other bandits were already frightened and panicked, and their morale instantly fell to the bottom.

There was no way, the boss was dead, so what was the point of them continuing to fight?The key is that the opponent also has a powerful puppet master, and they may not be able to win if they continue to fight.

For a moment, the bandits who were so arrogant just now dispersed in an instant. They were just a group of desperadoes. As long as one of them takes the lead in escaping, the entire team will fall apart.

In just a short while, dozens of bandits rolled and disappeared into the forest.

It was not that Zhu Youchen had never thought about capturing the scarred man first and then forcing the bandits away, but after thinking about it calmly, he felt that doing so would be a waste of time and prone to accidents. In addition, the scarred man's cruel methods just now also made it difficult for him to do so. It made him have a lot of murderous intentions towards the scarred boy.

Seeing that the bandits dispersed in a hurry, Zhu Youchen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the ground and began to perform exercises to heal his injuries.

The people in the caravan who were still in shock gradually came to their senses. They looked at Zhu Youchen and then at the man with the scar who died tragically on the other side. They couldn't help but swallow their saliva with lingering fear.

"Brother Xiong, is this little brother actually a puppet master?!" Boss Liu looked at Xiong Ba in surprise.

At this time, Xiong Ba was also confused, "I didn't expect this kid to become a puppet master so quickly. He and Shaolong were just tested for soul talent before."

"Huh~~!" Boss Liu said meaningfully: "In short, thanks to this little brother, otherwise I would have suffered a big loss this time!"

Xiong Ba nodded awkwardly, but his eyes never left Zhu Youchen from beginning to end.

There was no way, he would never have thought in his wildest dreams that Zhu Youchen had successfully practiced the "Nine Grand Jue" and also successfully separated the first demon puppet.

Xiong Shaolong, on his side, has also recovered from the panic just now, staring at Zhu Youchen and Da Zhuang next to him with wide eyes. Until this moment, he couldn't believe that this was true.

Others may not know how difficult it is to practice as a puppet master, but he has experienced it personally.

Along the way, it took him nearly three days to barely feel the magic power through Jiu Hongjue, but Zhu Youchen had successfully separated the first demon puppet.

Recalling the scene of his previous confrontation with Zhu Youchen, Xiong Shaolong was instantly ashamed and extremely embarrassed.

At the same time, there was also a little bit of jealousy in my heart. After all, in terms of qualifications, he was much better than Zhu Youchen, not to mention that Zhu Youchen was judged to never be able to separate the third devil.

But what he didn't expect was that Zhu Youchen would become a puppet master so quickly, and even separate the first puppet.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!" Xiong Shaolong said somewhat unable to accept it: "According to the records in Jiu Hong Jue, it will take at least half a month from condensing the soul box to separating the first demon puppet, but how long has it passed? ?”

The reason why Xiong Shaolong felt this way was based on the speed at which he absorbed magic power combined with the records in the Jiu Hong Jue. But he didn't know that his speed at absorbing magic power was not at the same level as Zhu Youchen's.

However, before he recovered from the shock, Zhu Youchen, who was in the process of healing his injuries, gave him another critical blow.

Zhu Youchen, who was recovering from his injuries through exercises, suddenly raised his brows in pain. Then, with a violent fluctuation in his ability, a ball of bronze light rushed out from between Zhu Youchen's eyebrows.

Then, under the stunned gazes of Xiong Shaolong and his gang, Zhu Youchen transformed into a bronze-colored body with a "round" body. At the same time, a bronze-colored soul appeared on Zhu Youchen's left index finger.

That's right, after the battle just now and the accumulation of practice these days, Zhu Youchen successfully separated the second demon puppet representing the shield puppet.

"Oh my god, is this kid from the Zhu family trying to defy heaven?!" Xiong Ba, who had just calmed down, couldn't help but voiced his doubts again.

But at this time, Xiong Shaolong's side had already froze in place, completely speechless.

At the same time, Zhu Youchen also quickly opened his eyes, staring blankly at the bronze figure next to Da Zhuang. Although there was no expression on his face, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Is this my second magic puppet, the shield puppet?" Zhu Youchen looked at his shield puppet with interest, and then frowned unconsciously.

Like Da Zhuang, this shield puppet looks exactly like Zhu Youchen, just like twins. The difference is that this shield puppet is much fatter than Zhu Youchen.

Combined with the large and sturdy body shape, we can basically draw a conclusion. Although the image of the devil is theoretically the same as its host, different types of devils will show different characteristics.

As a powerful war puppet, Da Zhuang naturally corresponds to strength, and this shield puppet, which is good at defense, naturally corresponds to rough skin and thick flesh.

Even so, Zhu Youchen still had a strange feeling when he saw his shield puppet.

He has been thin since he was a child, and this is the first time he has seen how he looks after becoming obese.

Xiong Ba, his son, and Boss Liu's group also gathered around impatiently. They first inquired about Zhu Youchen's injuries. After confirming that it was nothing serious, they shifted the topic to the two demon dolls next to him.Xiong Shaolong could no longer suppress his inner curiosity and stared at Zhu Youchen eagerly, "You idiot Chen... Bah... Brother Youchen, when did you succeed in cultivation and why didn't you tell us?"

"You didn't ask, either?" Zhu Youchen replied calmly.

"Uh," Xiong Shaolong couldn't help being speechless, "I'm just curious, how did you manage to separate the two golems so quickly? I've been struggling for so many days, and I just felt the magic power."

"I don't know too well." Zhu Youchen shook his head in a little confusion: "It may be that while God closed one window for me, it also opened another window for me. In fact, when I got Jiuhong On the second day of the battle, Dazhuang was separated."

"What?! The devil was separated the next day?!" Xiong Shaolong couldn't help but screamed in surprise. Although he already knew that Zhu Youchen's cultivation speed was different from ordinary people, he didn't expect that he was even more perverted than he imagined. .

Hearing this, Xiong Ba on the side couldn't help but sigh meaningfully: "With such an astonishing cultivation speed, I'm afraid I can't find anyone else in the states? It's a pity... eh~~ This may be fate."

"Isn't that right~ If only I could practice so fast, I would have wasted such a good talent on him." Xiong Shaolong said with some unpleasant envy.

Zhu Youchen didn't feel much about Xiong Shaolong's words. After all, what he said was true. For someone like him who was destined to stop at the Eryin realm, what was the point of practicing faster?
To put it bluntly, Zhu Youchen has now reached the highest state he can reach, which is the so-called Eryin state.

Even if he has a cultivation speed that is different from ordinary people, it is impossible to go further.

The reason is very simple, because the next step is to separate the third puppet before he can continue to practice, but because of his incomplete human soul, he will never be able to separate the third puppet.

Although Zhu Youchen didn't feel anything, Xiong Ba was so angry at Xiong Shaolong's words that he slapped Xiong Shaolong on the back of the head, "You heartless thing, what are you talking about? If it hadn't been for Youchen this time, we would all have died. At this!"

After being educated by Xiong Babo, Xiong Shaolong also realized his mistake and quickly apologized to Zhu Youchen.

Zhu Youchen shook his head indifferently and did not blame Xiong Shaolong.

Xiong Shaolong was a little nervous at first, but after seeing that Zhu Youchen didn't pursue it, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned to ask curiously: "By the way, Brother Youchen, you just called him Da Zhuang, don't tell me that this is the name you gave him. .”

"Yes, what's the problem?" Zhu Youchen asked with a glance.

"..." Xiong Shaolong said with black lines on his head: "Then do you want your second devil to be called Er Fat?"

Originally it was just a joke, but who would have thought that Zhu Youchen would actually take it seriously.

Zhu Youchen nodded thoughtfully and said seriously: "That's right, that's right. I'll call him Fatty from now on!"

"No way?!" Xiong Shaolong suddenly looked confused, and the corner of his mouth twitched for a long time. It took him a long time to come back to his senses: "Isn't your name too casual?"

But Zhu Youchen pointed at Da Zhuang and Er Pang with a calm expression and asked, "Do you think he is strong?"

"Strong." Xiong Shaolong nodded subconsciously.

"Then do you think he is fat?"

"It's really fat."

"Then what's the problem if I call them Da Zhuang and Er Pang?"

"There is indeed no problem." Xiong Shaolong replied subconsciously. After saying this, he realized that he had been led astray by Zhu Youchen. He quickly waved his hands and shook his head and said: "I mean, you can't give the devil a nicer, more domineering name. A name? Anyway, my future puppets must have a domineering name."

"Oh." Zhu Youchen said disapprovingly, not taking Xiong Shaolong's suggestion seriously at all. Anyway, he thought the names Da Zhuang and Er Pang were good, simple, crude, easy to remember, and smooth.

"..." Xiong Shaolong rolled his eyes stiffly. Seeing that Zhu Youchen was so stubborn, he didn't bother to ask again.

……

Afterwards, after sorting out and resting, the group of people embarked on the trip to Lyceum City again. Although the loss of a few team members made the atmosphere of the whole team somewhat depressing, fortunately there was no loss of goods.

In this regard, Boss Liu was also very grateful to Zhu Youchen, and specially gave Zhu Youchen a generous reward, which was as much as two thousand demon dust.

Zhu Youchen naturally accepted the reward with an expressionless face. After all, his injuries could not be in vain.

And he is going to Lanxin City soon, so with this money, he is guaranteed.

As for Xiong Shaolong, ever since he found out about Zhu Youchen's awesomeness, he had wrapped himself around Zhu Youchen like a dog-skin plaster, calling him "Brother Youchen", which made Zhu Youchen's skin crawl.

Fortunately, this torture did not last long.

Two days later, the caravan successfully arrived at the legendary Lanxin City.

The moment he saw Lyceum City, Zhu Youchen, a country bumpkin, had seen the world, and at the same time understood why his father insisted on letting him come to Lyceum City.
