Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Secret Book of Demons
Chapter 38 "The Secret of Ghost Descent"
The secret skills of the ghost clan mainly include three parts: concealment, poison and puppetry, and this "Ghost Secret Record" mainly records puppetry.
The puppet is the main combat weapon of the ghost clan, and its importance is even more than the magic weapon, the ghost clan has no substantial spirit body, and cannot strengthen the physique, so it cannot exert its own strong combat effectiveness, and the puppet made of the corpse just makes up for the serious defect of the ghost clan's own low combat effectiveness.
Because the strength of the corpse itself is very high, and after the strengthening of the ghost clan, its basic attack power is comparable to that of the beast clan of the same level, plus there is no soul and pain, even if it is hit hard, it will not affect the puppet's combat effectiveness, unless it is like Zhou Yang who will break the puppet into ten thousand pieces.
However, the ghost clan after the Yuan Infant period has a powerful puppet resurrection skill, which can instantly resurrect the broken puppet corpse by spending a lot of ghost power. That is, as long as the ghost's power is enough to support it, the golem can resurrect indefinitely and fight endlessly.
Therefore, the ghost clan above the Yuan infant stage is one of the most difficult opponents of the six clans.
Of course, the puppet, although strong, is not without weaknesses. Stiffness and lack of flexibility are the biggest dead ends, which is also the main source of the ghost clan's restraint by the immortal clan.
In addition, the opponent can also bypass the puppet and directly carry out soul attacks on the cultivators of the ghost clan, for example, the illusion of the demon clan can directly kill the ghost clan with a weaker soul.
The first step in cultivating puppetry is to find a corpse, and it is not an easy task to find a perfect corpse, because the quality of the corpse itself directly represents the combat power of the puppet.
The higher the level of the cultivator's corpse, the stronger the combat power of the puppet refined, but correspondingly, the more difficult it is to find and the more difficult it is to refine.
Because the master above the merge period will achieve the body of Vajra, unless it is a heavenly tribulation, but the powerful heavenly tribulation will shatter the entire Yuan Shen, and it is impossible to leave a corpse at all.
And the probability of the master being killed in the merge period is very low, unless the original soul is directly killed, so if you want to get the corpse above the merge period, there is only one way to kill the soul, but how powerful the soul of the merge period is, even the demons who are good at soul attacks dare not say that they are completely sure.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the corpses used by the ghost clan are all grades below the distraction period, and most of them are slowly cultivated from the grades below the Yudan period, and there are very few of them in the Yuan Infant stage, and now most of the corpses in the hands of the ghost clan above the Yuan Infant stage are exchanged from the hands of the demons.
And in order to prevent the ghost clan, after the death of the cultivators of the human race, they have always destroyed the corpse, and they do not want the ghost clan to get it, the immortal body yang of the immortal clan is too heavy, and it is not suitable to be a puppet at all, only the demon clan and the demon clan who are good friends with the ghost clan are willing to exchange treasures with the corpse with the ghost clan, especially the demon clan, because they are good at spiritual attacks, so they have obtained a large number of complete high-level corpses, these things are of little use to them, and they are generally used to exchange treasures with the ghost clan.
Due to the huge number of the beast clan, those who are not in the Great Wilderness Realm are not protected by the tribe, so they naturally become the target of the ghost clan's hunting.
The second step of puppetry is corpse refining. Enhance the Spirit's offensive and defensive abilities by extraditing the ghost's power to the target's corpse. In order to further enhance the aggressiveness, some even quenched poison on corpses. The higher the basic quality of the corpse, the higher the grade, the longer it will take to refine the corpse, generally between one and two months, because if the time is longer, the corpse will decompose.
The third step is to control the corpse. This is the last and most difficult step. The main thing is that the caster uses the power of the ghost to control the actions of the puppet. It mainly includes some simple attack moves, as well as some basic body movements.
Delicate control can greatly improve the combat power of the puppet, so it is the core essence of corpse control, even in the ghost clan, the experience and skills of corpse control can only be taught by a few cultivators with extremely high status and qualifications.
However, this "Secret Record of Ghost Descent" in Zhou Yang's hand records the essence of corpse control in great detail. Obviously, the red-haired ghost cha who was killed by Zhou Yang and Mercury Ping must have a close connection with the high-ranking members of the ghost clan.
Zhou Yang looked at the objects on the table again, and finally understood their purpose.
The small golden bell is called the Bliss Bell, which is a necessary utensil for controlling the corpse, which is divided into three materials: gold, silver and copper.
The yellow rune paper is exactly the same as the one used by the red-haired ghost before, mainly for resurrecting the puppet, which is infused with the spiritual power of the master above the primordial infant, and what is written on the paper is the spell that enables the rune paper.
As for what the bottle of bright red liquid was, Zhou Yang never figured it out. But he knew that the things of the ghost clan were very weird, and if he was not careful, he would never recover, so he didn't dare to move around, and carefully put back the storage bracelet.
"It's a good dagger, and it might work wonders when it matters most. Zhou Yang took a look at it, and put the short sword into the storage bracelet.
"Alas, most things are useless," Zhou Yang saw that Han Xiang wanted to speak, and quickly interrupted: "Don't say how powerful the puppet technique is, I don't want to use such a disgusting thing." ”
"Hehe, in fact, most of the puppets in the hands of the ghost clan are the corpses of the people they respect the most, fear and hate the most in their lives, if the master hates anyone to the bone, you might as well train it into a puppet to relieve your anger......"
".......Sizzle," Zhou Yang gasped, "This little girl is so vicious, but if you think about it on the other hand, it seems that it is not bad to really train the evil person into a puppet, at least his evil body can still do something meaningful, and it can be regarded as making up for his viciousness a little." ”
Thinking of this, Zhou Yang's heart suddenly shook, and he muttered: "What's wrong with me lately? Why do you always think about killing people and committing murder? Although it is the duty of a cultivator to eliminate demons and defend the Dao, he can't use this as an excuse to kill innocents indiscriminately." But then again, if I don't kill people, I'm going to be killed by others. Besides, can those people be called innocent?"
"Hehe, don't think nonsense, listen to the slave and maid, if the bad people don't die, the good people will suffer, if you don't teach the alien race, our immortal race and your human race will suffer disasters, so, for the sake of justice and the interests of the race, those who should be killed must be killed, this can be regarded as the way to eliminate demons. ”
"Hehe, what you said made me understand. I can't see that Hanxiang can still say such a big truth, it really benefits me a lot. ”
"Han Xiang is just a little girl, where do you know any big truths? This is all what you told me from the master. Han Xiang thought it made sense at the time, so he silently wrote it down, but he didn't expect it to be used. ”
"It's Riyao Immortal Venerable again, alas, when will I be able to recover the memories of my previous life?
But he thought of the Divine Realm qualification battle two thousand eight hundred years ago, even the top three masters of the Immortal Clan had ended miserably, and he couldn't help but sigh lightly.
Even the powerful Sunyao Immortal Venerable ended up with such an ending in the end, and it is still unknown whether he can cultivate to the strength of the Sunyao Immortal Venerable in the past two hundred years.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if he really recovers the peak state of the Sunyao Immortal Venerable, he is even stronger than the Sunyao Immortal Venerable, and can defeat the masters of the four clans in one fell swoop, but if a certain master of the beast clan also comes to a "soul blast" like the Sunyao Immortal Venerable, can he handle it?
Whether it is active or passive, Zhou Yang doesn't want to experience the feeling of being distracted again.
"Forget it, anyway, those things are still far away from now, and there may be a way when the time comes, so why should I worry about it?"
