Chapter 170: Refining the Puppet
The puppet technique is already profound and mysterious, the production of the spirit core alone is complex and extraordinary, studying this thousand secret techniques, Mu Xiao's brows suddenly furrowed, suddenly stretched, and there was something I didn't understand, that is, I went to the library for the first time, and under the patient teaching of the thousand-handed elders, Mu Xiao's puppet technique has made a lot of progress.
During the break time, many people in the academy saw Mu Xiao walking on the road, and they were all holding a thick scroll, and everyone who saw it was embarrassed, especially the disciples in the original freshman area.
Mu Xiao's talent and strength, compared to them, are unattainable geniuses for them, but now a person with such natural resources is working so hard, which is also a big stimulus for them.
Looking at Mu Xiao, who worked so hard, even Zhang Xiaofeng was much harder than his usual training.
With the deepening of the Thousand Secret Techniques, Mu Xiao also found that this puppet master is really a money-burning profession, in order to make the simplest spirit core in the early stage, the money on Mu Xiao's body is about to be spent, and there are not many spirit yuan stones, which are already about to bottom out.
However, fortunately, Elder Thousand Hands also seemed to see Mu Xiao's constraints, and agreed that Mu Xiao could use the materials in his warehouse at will.
Elder Thousand-Hands' approach was really a relief in the snow for Mu Xiao, and he was grateful for a handful of snot and tears, but these were directly ignored by Elder Thousand-Hands.
"The so-called spiritual core is based on the cultivator's own spiritual power, which is carved on the refined spirit core blank and drawn into a formation, so that it can continue to provide energy for the puppet in the puppet's body. ”
Elder Thousand Hands was teaching Mu Xiao how to make the Spirit Core while covering it up.
For three months, Mu Xiao didn't know how much material he had consumed, and finally a most basic spirit core was carved in Mu Xiao's hands.
His forehead was covered with sweat, and the production of the spirit core couldn't help but consume a lot of spiritual power, and at the same time, it would still consume a lot of energy.
Looking at the spiritual core glowing with spiritual power in his hand, although Mu Xiao's face was tired, it was still full of joy.
The spirit core is spherical hollow shape, and the runes are carved on it, these runes can only be regarded as a relatively simple type in the records of thousands of secret techniques, but they are such rune depictions, all of which have exhausted all of Mu Xiao's spiritual power and energy.
Mu Xiao is just a newcomer to the puppet technique, and the process of carving runes is naturally still a little rusty.
Elder Thousand Hands stroked his beard, looked at Mu Xiao's excited appearance, and said lightly, "This kind of spirit core, it's so-so, it looks like it's made by a novice." ”
Hearing what Elder Thousand Hands said, Mu Xiao pursed his lips, although this was a bit like pouring cold water, Mu Xiao was still very happy in his heart, after all, this was the first spirit core he had made.
Although the tone was very flat, Elder Thousand Hands' heart was not calm at all, in three months, he could produce a complete spirit core, such a puppet talent, even Elder Thousand Hands was a little indescribably envious.
You must know that it was when the Thousand-Hand Elder rested the puppet technique, and it took nearly a year to make the first spirit core of his own.
The core part of the puppet, the spirit core, has been made, and with a wave of his hand, a pile of metal raw materials suddenly appeared in front of him.
"The first puppet doesn't need to think too much, just refine the most basic ones first. ”
Mu Xiao nodded slightly, he also understood what Elder Thousand Hands meant, all cultivation is gradual, and it is impossible to achieve it overnight.
The body of the puppet, in addition to the metal, the most difficult part is the production of parts at the joints, each part must be calculated and drawn clearly in advance, otherwise every small deviation will make the previous efforts wasted.
On the ground, there was a crumpled ball of paper, and Mu Xiao's brows were furrowed together, the refining of this puppet body was not easier than the refining of the spirit core.
It was about two months later, Mu Xiao carefully placed the last part on the puppet's body with both hands, and the click sound he heard kept ringing, and the puppet in front of him flashed a spiritual light on the surface of his body.
Mu Xiao exhaled deeply, put his fingers together, and waved it gently, and the puppet also walked awkwardly forward with a clicking sound.
Seeing that the puppet he had refined was really moving under his control, Mu Xiao's heart felt an indescribable joy.
Although this puppet is only the most basic, after all, Mu Xiao, who controls the puppet, has the strength of the foundation building realm, and if he really controls it, his strength will be comparable to that of a cultivator in the late stage of the refinement realm.
"Well, in less than half a year, you can really refine a puppet, and it is not in vain that I spent so long teaching you. ”
Elder Thousand Hands praised Mu Xiao this time, and Mu Xiao was a little embarrassed in his heart.
Scratching his head, Mu Xiao also thanked him, "Thank you Elder Thousand Hands for teaching your disciples." ”
Mu Xiao's gratitude is sincere, if it weren't for the teachings of the Thousand Hands Elder, Mu Xiao's puppet technique would not have been able to make such progress in such a short period of time.
"Now you are also a real puppeteer, the puppet technique focuses on honing and accumulating, and blindly seeking progress will be counterproductive. ”
Elder Thousand Hands put away the metal raw materials and continued, "If you can skillfully control and master this one puppet, you can consider making other puppets. ”
"The disciple understands. Mu Xiao nodded and said, as Elder Thousand Hands said, now this puppet, he is still a little sluggish in control, so it is naturally not suitable to learn the production of other types of puppets.
Leaving the library, Mu Xiao looked at the storage bracelet on his wrist, with a smile on his face.
After nearly half a year of puppet learning, Mu Xiao's Lingyuan stones and points have been consumed, and it seems that he has to accept tasks and earn points again.
When Mu Xiao returned to the dormitory, he found that there was a spiritual message in front of his room, which was left by Elder Yuan, and after Mu Xiao came back, he went to find him.
During this time, Mu Xiao had been in the library pavilion, presumably Elder Yuan Yan should have been afraid of delaying his learning of puppetry, so he left this spiritual power message in front of the door.
His brows furrowed slightly, "Master uses this way, I'm afraid it's not something important." ”
In the courtyard, Yuan Yan was holding a jade slip in his hand, looked at it carefully, and then raised his eyebrows and looked at the door in front of him.
A young figure at the door was walking in slowly, it was Mu Xiao.
"Disciple Mu Xiao has seen Shizun. ”
After seeing Yuan Yan's message, Mu Xiao didn't have the slightest delay, he just came over.
Yuan Yan nodded slightly, looking up and down, "How is the puppet technique practiced?" ”
Shrugging his shoulders, Mu Xiao said lightly, "It's okay." ”
Immediately, with a wave of his palm, a puppet appeared in the courtyard, and above the puppet, there was a faint light of spiritual power circulating.
Seeing the appearance of this puppet, Yuan Yan was stunned, and there was shock in his heart, "This kid can actually refine puppets." ”
