The taciturn female cultivator, once exposed by Hua Linglong for her tactics, stopped pretending. She soared higher and then raised her hand to press down heavily. The pitch-black swarm of insects fell like a water column directly onto Song Yan.
Song Yan hurriedly dodged while manipulating the shadow puppets with his ten fingers.
The shadow puppets spun around him like a carousel. Supported by Profound Qi, they collided with the black column, emitting a continuous "sizzling" sound, reminiscent of a water mill spinning wildly or a dark waterfall plunging into a deep pool.
Wherever Song Yan dashed, the insect swarm followed.
The insects themselves were not particularly strong and many shattered upon colliding with Song Yan's ten shadow puppets, bursting into pieces and scattering in all directions.
