Emergence Point!
Among martial artists and War Automata of the same cultivation realm, martial artists far surpassed War Automata in every aspect.
That was because humans were living beings who could learn and apply what they knew, adapting flexibly and changing their methods at will. Even an ordinary sword technique could display a thousand variations in their hands. War Automata, despite possessing the same strength, were dead objects. Without a controller directing them from the side, they possessed nothing but brute force and not the slightest trace of technique.

Thus, although some War Automata in the Devil Realm possessed the strength of Ninth-Rank Dao Venerables, they were rarely used in actual combat.
Within the Devil Realm, many puppet refiners also understood the drawbacks of War Automata. Without anyone directing them, War Automata were like walking piles of scrap iron. Therefore, many puppet refiners changed their strategy and began refining "human puppets." The human puppets of the Asura Battlefield, for example, had been refined by the Devil Puppet Sect.
The Devil Puppet Sect had once been a sect specializing in refining War Automata, but later, it had no choice but to change its methods and refine human puppets.
