What in the world is this monster?
Everyone stared, dumbfounded. Calling the mantis beast a living creature was a stretch, as it had no flesh or blood. Yet to call it a puppet was also inaccurate, as it bore no arrays or runes. It was like a jade statue of a Demon Beast that could move and fight, very likely a special life form, similar to the King of Gravel.
Realization dawned on Ye Xuan. No wonder he couldn't sense the slightest hint of a soul from the mantis beast. The creature wasn't a Demon Beast or a Profound Beast at all. 'How could it possibly have a soul?'
"Sect Master, do you need our help?"
The Langxie Sect's experts quickly looked toward Yu Xiuneng.
Yu Xiuneng replied dismissively, "No need. This beast is strong, but I can handle it."
From the start of the fight until now, although Yu Xiuneng had been bloodied and taken some injuries, they weren't serious and were in no way life-threatening.
