Chapter 435: Unscathed
Three days later, Qin Xing finally opened his eyes in the waterhole, and from the outside, it didn't look like there was the slightest change, but in fact, he had successfully reached the realm of the Three Turning Star Marquis.
Once the star cultivator condenses the star soul, the speed of cultivation will slow down, and even a small level of improvement often takes up to several decades or more.
If Qin Xing hadn't come to the Sky Swallowing Star and hadn't discovered the waterhole in this holy land, then the time he needed would have been even longer than others.
Now, with all the hole cards he can use so far, he finally has the strength to compete with the four-step star king, which makes him think of the situation when he faced Long Zaiye and the Sky Messenger.
Long Zaiye, in fact, strictly speaking, is not a four-step star king at all, but he borrowed the power of the old ancestor and all the dragon family, which is similar to the secret method of star qi change, so he can have the strength of a four-step star king in a short period of time, and Qin Xing at that time, if he hadn't borrowed the murderous aura of the Seven Killing Stars, I am afraid that he would have died in his hands long ago.
As for Changkong, it was the real four-step star king, and even the punishment chessboard that Qin Xing was most proud of was difficult to hurt him in the slightest, if it wasn't for Chu Hanyi and his sudden appearance, then Qin Xing would become a prisoner even if he didn't die.
Feeling the abundant power in his body, Qin Xing said to himself: "The Three Turning Star Marquis, coupled with the secret method of Star Qi Change, can make my strength reach the realm of the Three-Step Star King in a short period of time, but this strength is still far from enough, whether it is to deal with Master Dayan or Wan Xianzhong, it is too far behind, not to mention, the time for the arrival of Gu Chenwei and others that Tianjizi said is getting closer and closer!"
At the beginning, after Qin Xing successfully fixed the star at the age of eighteen, because the purple bead suddenly burst into light, it attracted the attention of some people, and from Tianjizi's mouth, Qin Xing learned that these people were rushing towards Qin Tianxing.
Although the road is far away, it will take three or five years to get there, and now that more than two years have passed, they should appear in more than two years at the latest.
Gu Chenwei and these people, Qin Xing didn't know what their origin was, but he saw his sister Qin Yue in his previous life in a memory of his previous life, and he was brought back by Gu Chenwei.
And Tianjizi and the others were extremely jealous of Gu Chenwei, and told Qin Xing that if they wanted to deal with Gu Chenwei, then they needed to at least raise their cultivation to the realm of Star Monarch!
Qin Xing is now in the realm of the Third Transformation Star Marquis, and there is still a long way to go from the realm of the Star Monarch, so he must find a way to improve his strength more quickly.
As for the waterhole, now there is only one-third of the water of star qi left, no matter how hard Qin Xing tries to draw it from under the earth, he can no longer fill the waterhole, if he and Xiaohuo continue to absorb it so frantically, I'm afraid that this place will soon dry up completely.
Qin Xingwei was really a little embarrassed, and he had to leave some for the people of the Zhengu clan to say anything, so he had to find and occupy a new waterhole.
"Don't think about it so much, step by step, first refine Mu Gaotian into a puppet!
Qin Xing took out Mu Gaotian's corpse and placed it in the air, looking at his dry and tight skin, he nodded and said, "It's really a piece of dead wood, but the defense is indeed quite good, and it should be the best material for refining puppets." ”
Because he had considered in advance that the defense of the Deadwood Clan might be equally amazing, Qin Xing would only use the Broken Blade when he assassinated Mu Gaotian.
And in this process, he also felt that although the defense of the Deadwood Clan's body was not as strong as the Stone Clan, it was much stronger than other Star Cultivators and Beast Cultivators.
At this time, Qin Xing noticed that Mu Gaotian was wearing a bracelet on his withered wrist, and knew that it was a storage star weapon, so he took it off casually.
As the patriarch of one of the five major clans, Qin Xing believed that Mu Gaotian's collection of good things would definitely not be less.
However, when he infiltrated the power of the star soul into it, he unexpectedly found that there was nothing else in the star weapon except for some elixirs and star stones.
Although the elixir didn't seem to be of low grade, and the number of star stones was tens of thousands, Qin Xing still felt a little puzzled, the patriarch of one of the five great clans was so handy?
Qin Xing unwillingly increased the power of the star soul, and continued to explore the inside of the bracelet, still not finding any items, but there was another discovery.
The space inside the storage star vessel is fixed, but Qin Xing's two explorations of the power of the star soul were unexpectedly discovered, and the size of the space felt after the two explorations was inconsistent!
It's just that this difference is extremely weak, and I'm afraid that only Qin Xing's powerful star soul power can be keenly detected.
"This bracelet is weird!"
Qin Xing smiled coldly, and the star soul wrapped in colored light shot out from the top of his head, and instantly drilled into the bracelet, accompanied by the opening of the eye of the star core, and sure enough, he saw that in a corner of the bracelet, there was a simple seal!
This level of sealing naturally couldn't stop Qin Xing, and after easily breaking the seal, nine beads the size of a dragon's eye rolled out!
The nine beads were exactly the same size, round and not slippery, and the inside of the beads was filled with a faint mist, and they were still flowing slowly, looking like living creatures.
"What is this?"
Taking out the nine beads from the bracelet and placing them on top of his palm, Qin Xing tried to use the power of the star soul, the eye of the star core, and even the star qi to look at them one by one, but found that he could not enter the inside of the beads at all, and naturally he could not tell what the mist inside the beads was, let alone judge the effect of the beads.
However, since Mu Gaotian was so carefully stored in the storage star, and also added a seal, it was hidden very deeply, it can be seen that he attaches great importance to these nine beads, and it is definitely not an ordinary thing.
After studying for a while, Qin Xing collected the star stones, pills, and nine beads into his storage star weapon, and then officially began refining the puppet!
The palm of his hand spread out, a ball of flame jumped out, and Qin Xing threw it directly on top of Mu Gaotian's corpse, and at the same time, the power of the star soul also completely covered the corpse from the inside out.
Refining the puppet, this is the most critical process, everything in the puppet's body must be burned into nothingness, and keep the appearance of the body intact, if you are not careful, even if you can succeed in the end, but the puppet can only be regarded as a defective product.
Naturally, this process depends on the refiner's mastery of the power of fire.
Thanks to the fact that Qin Xing had completed two alchemy under the guidance of Tianjizi in the Tianxiang Building, he had become proficient in the control of the temperature of the flame, so refining this puppet at this moment was completely more than enough.
Seeing that Mu Gaotian's body was completely shrouded in flames, his clothes and hair were burned into nothingness in an instant, Qin Xing's face was extremely calm, Mu Gaotian had a damn reason, so refining him into a puppet, Qin Xing didn't have the slightest psychological burden at all.
According to Xu Wei's description, in the process of refining, if the refining time is longer, the stronger the puppet's body will be after success, and vice versa, the worse it will be.
At the beginning, his two Hou-level puppets, each of which had been refined for up to a day, were extremely strong, so he cherished them so much, even if they were counterattacked by the puppets, they were reluctant to hurt the puppets.
Originally, Qin Xing thought that Mu Gaotian's body, which already contained almost no water, would take a short time to refine, but when he really started refining, he realized that the process was actually quite long.
I don't know if it was because the body of the Dead Wood Clan, which was already shaped like dead wood, was too burned, or because Qin Xing didn't dare to adjust the temperature of the flame too high, it took three days for everything in Mu Gaotian's body to finally be burned into nothingness.
And his body is even more withered and shriveled, the real skin is wrapped in bones, the original height of nearly two meters, now shrunk by nearly a foot, plus the whole body is blackened by flames, if it is thrown on the ground, I am afraid that it will really be mistaken for a piece of burnt dead wood.
However, Qin Xing was quite satisfied with the current Mu Gaotian, his skin without the slightest moisture was tightly taut on the bones, full of toughness, and even Qin Xing took out the broken blade and slashed hard, but he couldn't break it, only leaving a shallow mark.
"The hardness of the flesh has even surpassed mine!"
Next, Qin Xing separated his star soul a little, followed the small hole in the center of Mu Gaotian's eyebrows, and directly drilled into it, and found Mu Gaotian's star soul.
The star soul that had lost consciousness was like a wandering spirit, slowly floating in Mu Gaotian's mind.
Qin Xing's star soul rushed into Mu Gaotian's star soul without hindrance, he had successfully snatched the control of Xu Wei's two puppets at the beginning, and now he invaded this completely blank star soul again, which was naturally more handy.
"Buzz!"
Mu Gaotian opened his eyes suddenly, there was no brilliance in his eyes, he looked like a dead man, but just the flipping of his eyelids made a slight air concussion sound, it can be imagined how hard his body has been!
Then, Mu Gaotian turned his neck, moved his hands and feet, and then walked up to the edge of the pool.
Although at the beginning, his walking posture was extremely stiff and his speed was extremely slow, but as Qin Xing's soul became more and more proficient in mastering this body, his natural movements became more and more flexible, and his speed became faster and faster, and in the end, he actually took off and leaped, turning into a black shadow!
With a "swish", Mu Gaotian appeared directly in front of Qin Xing, and Qin Xing raised his hand, gathered all his strength, and smashed it out with a punch.
"Bang!"
The punch hit Mu Gaotian in the chest as if it were hitting a broken leather drum, and it only knocked him back three steps.
And the next moment, Mu Gaotian's legs curled slightly, and he stood in front of Qin Xing again in an instant!
"Little fire, burn him!"
Qin Xing's order, which had always remained curious, and the little fire that was squatting on Qin Xing's shoulder immediately turned over happily, and before it fell, his small mouth opened, and a raging flame had already erupted towards Mu Gaotian.
Xiaohuo has absolutely no mercy, and the temperature of the flame is also the extreme he can achieve at the moment.
After the flames burned for half an hour, Mu Gaotian suddenly stepped out of the flames, and his body was still unharmed!
"Hahaha!"
Qin Xing couldn't help but laugh out loud, the strength of his puppet body really exceeded his expectations.
In terms of defense alone, even a four-step star king may not be able to cause him any damage, and from now on, this puppet will become a big help for himself!
"From now on, you are no longer Mu Gaotian, but my Qin Xing's king-level puppet, just call you - Wang Puppet!"
