Chapter 240: Refining the Puppet (2)
Lifting up and jumping into the cave, Bi Lingxiao looked down. The area around the cliff was guarded by high-ranking disciples selected by the Eastern Soil because of his location. These disciples were selected from the two largest sects in the Eastern Land, the Puppet Sect and the Netherworld Sect. I saw that the rocky beach, the riverside, and the top of the cliff were guarded by disciples to ensure that the cave would not be disturbed in any way during the retreat.
My wife and Guo Fei were stationed at the bottom of the cliff, and tents had been set up for the two sect masters to rest. Guo Fei was obviously very resentful of Dai Lun's behavior of ignoring him and entering the cave, and he could feel the other party's unhappiness from such a distance. After being very satisfied with the location and making sure that no one would see the inside of the cave, Bi Lingxiao walked in with a smile.
The barrier opened silently, confined to the small confines of the cave. "Come out, little one!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a person suddenly come out of the smooth stone wall of the cave. Everyone thought that this young brother of Dai Ran did not accompany the Dharma Protector, but as everyone knows, the other party actually accepted the order and quietly followed.
When the demon spirit appeared, he stretched out his hand and swiped it, only to see an object fall out of the space and fall to the ground with a thud. At this time, the Supreme Elder's eyes were still wide, and his expression of obvious surprise was frozen on the wrinkled face that had lost its vitality and had turned blue-gray, and he probably didn't know how he died in the end.
"They've brought it to you, now it's time to start. ”
Augustus's soul came out, and the void floated in the air. Although a soul body without a body cannot reappear in the world for a long time, it can still exist for a short time.
"What's the hurry. Those medicinal herbs don't matter, but there is only one body in this important body, what if it fails?"
Bi Lingxiao was not in a hurry. Although the medicinal materials for refining puppets are precious, for a large kingdom like Dongtu, it is not a problem to collect a few pairs, but the flesh of the master is not a radish and cabbage, which can be seen everywhere. Several Supreme Elders of the Puppet Sect, this should be the highest rank, otherwise Augustus would not have chosen him, if it was wasted because he was not careful enough, it would not be a pity.
Without directly starting the drug refining, Bi Lingxiao first came to the corpse. Reaching out and pressing on the top of the old man's bare head, the water elemental flowed silently. After all, it is the body of a master above the peak of the 12th order, the meridians are very broad and strong, and the muscle lines are dense, compared to some demons. Human beings are inherently weak, and although the strength of their physical bodies increases as they move up in rank, there is still a gap between them and demons who are born with strong physical bodies. This Supreme Elder is already in his last years, and his physical strength is comparable to that of ordinary demons, which is already very remarkable.
After checking the meridians, Bi Lingxiao explored the rest of his body. After all, he is close to the advanced age of the ancient age, and there are not a lot of old injuries and internal force accumulation in his body, presumably this Elder Taishang must have been a belligerent when he was young, if it weren't for these old injuries and blockages that were difficult to heal, it would not be a problem for his strength to improve a few times.
It seems that these gaps can be repaired when the flesh body is re-refined, and maybe it can be reached a few more levels. While exploring, Bi Lingxiao pondered.
Watching his movements, Augustus was silent for a moment. "So, you need a test piece?"
Hearing his question, Bi Lingxiao's heart moved. "Then it's troublesome to kill the gods, and run again!"
Augustus showed a murderous smile, and the next second it disappeared into thin air, and the demon's body trembled.
"Go ahead. ”
"Yes. ”
The little one nodded, and disappeared into the cave. Bi Lingxiao smiled slightly and continued to carry out his work. The decision to shape the body for Augustus was not a temporary idea, nor was he afraid of the other party, nor did he want to be a living Lei Feng, but had a more important purpose - to pave the way for shaping Mochen's body in the future.
Mo Chen's body died, his soul dissipated, and his soul fell into another dimension. Although there is a Yin and Yang Soul Restoration Talisman of the Strange Master, the broken soul can be repaired completely, but Mo Chen's own body has been completely shattered in that battle, and even if the soul is repaired, the soul does not have a shell to live in.
Using the puppet sect's puppet technique to refine the puppet as a shell was an idea that Bi Lingxiao had long had. A puppet with no soul mark and a strong puppet of its own is the most suitable body for foreign souls to take away. But there is no precedent for such a thing. After all, the time from the time of death to the dissipation of the soul is very fast, and the puppet of the puppet sect is engraved with the soul mark of the master. It is as difficult to take away a puppet under control as it is to take a living body.
This time I entered the Circle Domain, and by chance I got acquainted with Augustus, a legendary figure who had been active for several years ago, and Augustus, who had long lost his body, what he urgently needed at this time was a body that could be taken away. This is also an opportunity. The other party needs a new body, and Bi Lingxiao wants to know the possibility of a puppet as a body, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
It didn't take long for this decaying body to be explored, and Bi Lingxiao threw it aside and began to examine the materials needed for the puppetry. Through the Talisman taught by the Strange Master, he can now detect the potency of various materials through the activity in the water element. No matter what kind of strange herbs or poisons they were, as long as they were injected with the water element, he would immediately know the various properties carried by these unknown materials.
Most of the materials needed for puppetrying are to strengthen the physical body, consolidate the foundation, and there is nothing special about it. As he probed piece by piece, the previously vanished demon spirit returned, this time with two corpses.
"I thought you'd get rid of the remaining four!" Bi Lingxiao said with a smile on his hand.
"The five elders of the Puppet Sect have formed a magic circle together. This array is located under the puppet sect and is of little use in normal times, but once the number of people in the town is reduced to less than two people, the defense barrier will be activated. ”
Augustus originally wanted to capture all these Supreme Elders, but when he dealt with the third person, he clearly felt that the field below the puppet sect had changed slightly. This change was so small that even the other two surviving Supreme Elders in the array didn't notice it. But Augustus was at a higher level, and his soul body was more sensitive to external senses, so he was aware of it. Now was not the time to startle the snake, so I had to give up the idea of solving everyone's problems and only bring those two back.
"It doesn't matter, two is enough!"
Putting down the last material, Bi Lingxiao put his hands on the bodies of the two unlucky guys respectively, and probed the internal conditions of the two. I don't know if I don't see it, but I find the problem when I look at it. The situation of these two people is not much different from the first Taishang Elder who died, but the degree of congestion in the body of one of them is more serious, and the meridians are full of large and small blockages, these blockages are not very big, and ordinary people must be difficult to detect, but these blockages greatly block the meridians, making it difficult to improve the rank.
"What level was this guy before?"
"It's just barely a turn, what's the problem?" Augustus raised his eyebrows.
"Good thing you ran again. Withdrawing his hand, Bi Lingxiao smiled slightly. "This guy can refine a stronger puppet!"
The refining soon began. With the Qilin Flame fused with the Flames, Bi Lingxiao didn't need other fires at all. The refining of puppets is somewhat similar to the preparation of talismans. To make a talisman, you must first fuse the materials, and then draw them on the rune paper to stabilize the effect, and the same is true for refining puppets. First, the body is tempered with medicinal materials, and then it is put into the fire to continue to be tempered, during which materials are continuously added to complete the puppet. The strength of the puppet depends on the medicinal power of the material, the temperature of the fire, the strength of the body, and more importantly, the tempering degree of the medicinal material.
The more completely the energy in the medicinal herbs is generated, the more powerful the puppet will become. Therefore, the puppets of the Puppet Sect are all made by the top fog makers in the human world. Urging medicinal herbs, no one in the world does it better than a fogger.
To put it simply, the production of a puppet is just a fog maker who induces medicinal materials to refine the body, so it seems that any person, as long as they find a fog maker, can refine the puppet. It's certainly not that simple.
In addition to the materials required to refine the puppet - these materials are carefully selected and are the most suitable for refining the flesh - there is also the method of controlling the puppet.
Just like the Kun Sect's insect control technique, the most unique and important thing about the puppet sect is the technique of this puppet mastery. If you forge a puppet but can't control it, then no matter how powerful the puppet is, it's a dead thing that can't move. If you want to control the puppet, you need two parts: the first part is to wash away all traces of the original soul of the physical body. The second part, marked with the traces of his own soul. And Bi Lingxiao doesn't even need to do the second part. As long as the original soul traces of the physical body are washed away, so that foreign souls can enter it without hindrance.
From refining the medicinal herbs to completing the puppet, the whole process was surprisingly smooth. Only two days later, the body used as experimental material was successfully baked under the extremely surprised gaze of Augustus.
"That's, done?"
"That's right, because I don't need to tattoo my own soul traces, the last step is saved!"
For his Virgo, Bi Lingxiao is still very satisfied. This body has been tempered and baptized by repeated drugs and flames, and has changed its appearance inside and out.
First of all, in the body, the old wounds of the years have been expelled, and the blockages in the meridians have been opened one by one, under the double cultivation of medicinal power and fire, this body is no longer the body of an ordinary human, and the strength at this time can even be comparable to some powerful demons. Outwardly, the withered face of the old man is gone, replaced by a clean, grainless young face. If it weren't for the cyan characteristic of dead people on his skin, it would have looked like a young man in his prime.
Can all golems be reborn like this after forging?
Bi Lingxiao is not a conceited person, but he also dares to boast that in this nether realm, no one can refine a puppet above him!
What is Bi Lingxiao's flame? It is a fusion of the blue sea and the blue fire, the only and peerless two supreme artifacts in this world. The essence and vitality brought by the blue sea mace, the blazing fire and powerful energy of the canghuo gong, have all made this body undergo earth-shaking changes! Not only has it completely repaired the accumulated old wounds and opened up the accumulated meridians, but it has also removed all impurities and reshaped the body inside and out, which is also the reason why the refined puppet can rejuvenate itself!
Not to mention the body of a peak master, even if it is an ordinary person here, under his forging, it can become a perfect body that can hold the soul of a powerful Augustus!
Augustus' eyes widened. This once famous killing god of the Three Realms had an extremely rare expression on his face that was so strange that it was a little funny.
