The Immortal Artifact Sect's Immortal Artifact Heir had made a grave error in his battle calculations!
The flesh-and-blood Dao soldier puppets making up the Flesh Furnace Formation—even the flesh of some low- and mid-level Immortal Artifact Sect disciples—seemed to come alive. Independent consciousness sprang up throughout their bodies, and they suddenly split apart with venomous roars.
These were the living beings they had once refined into their bodies and puppets as artifact components.
Countless members of the Immortal Artifact Sect, including many powerful cultivators, had believed they had completely overcome these independent consciousnesses.
