Chapter 196 The Five Elements Puppet and the Divine Soul Advance
Late at night, the bright moon is bright and the breeze is gentle.
In the training room, the soft light of the crystal lamp shines, making the room brightly illuminated.
Zhou Ling sat cross-legged on the futon, with the Ziyang Cauldron standing in front of him. Inside the cauldron, a humanoid puppet was being continuously shaped.
Beast flames surround the puppet's body, causing it to constantly change its form.
Zhou Ling, on the other hand, used magic arts and recited incantations.
As the spiritual power penetrated one after another, the facial features of the puppet gradually appeared in front of him, and the form of an adult man emerged.
With a flash of eyes, Zhou Ling drove the final seal into the puppet's body. With a "pop" sound, a burst of five-color light flashed on the puppet's body, and the body was completely stabilized.
Ten pieces of second-level five-element materials were refined into the core part, and the second-level iron wood-based body was added to create such a second-level puppet body.
Zhou Ling had just received a huge reward from the Taoist Academy, but he also looked pained.
This puppet body, not to mention anything else, already consumes twelve middle-grade spiritual stones in terms of material consumption.
Refining this Five Elements Puppet is really expensive.
The price is four or five times more than that of ordinary second-level puppets.
“But, fortunately, it’s done!”
Zhou Ling slowly put away the beast flames and looked at the lifelike puppet in front of him, his face beaming with joy.
At this point, the first step of refining the puppet, refining the body of the Five Elements Puppet is truly completed.
Following this, Zhou Ling's thoughts moved, and the soul puppet seal of Lingnong appeared in the sea of consciousness, and he condensed the Qianyang True Fire, and cooperated with his divine consciousness to begin to carve the soul puppet seal at the core of the Five Elements Puppet.
With the assistance of [Intermediate Analysis] and the second-level Soul Puppet Seal he had already mastered, this Ling Nong Soul Puppet Seal is not too difficult for him.
In the flames, Zhou Ling's soul was like a knife, and he began to carve soul seals with every stroke.
·······.
Five days later, Zhou Ling, who had been in the training room, suddenly thought, and several figures around him stood up.
Sit cross-legged and meditate around him again.
Two heads, second level, middle grade, three heads, first level, top grade.
They look like human monks. Although the expressions on their faces are still a little dull, their bodies move vigorously and flexibly.
Zhou Ling is already very satisfied with the effect of refining it for the first time.
If you look carefully, some details are still a little rough.
Except for one of these five puppets, which is a gold-armored puppet with combat attributes, the others are all spirit farmer puppets.
The appearance is rough and has little impact.
The materials and soul puppet seals are all solid and in place.
“I hope these puppets can recover their costs as soon as possible!”
Zhou Ling murmured.
These five puppets, just the material price of two second-level middle-grade puppets, consumed nearly thirty pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones.
This value is three or four times that of the materials for refining a high-grade spiritual weapon.
Fortunately, Zhou Ling now uses iron wood as the main body of the puppet, and then uses the five elements materials to build the core of the puppet, so the material consumption will not be so much.
According to the records of the Five Elements Puppet Technique, the puppet is mainly divided into three parts, the body, the core part and the soul puppet seal.
There are also auxiliary objects, such as magic weapons, etc.
The soul puppet seal among them is very important, determining the grade and strength of the puppet.
It needs to be carved on the mysterious stone and integrated into the puppet's body to become the main center of the puppet, just like the sea of consciousness of a monk.
Second-level Mysterious Soul Stones are also very valuable. Each piece costs two or three middle-grade spiritual stones.
So Zhou Ling also hopes that high investment can lead to high returns.
Of course, Zhou Ling is still very confident about this.
Those three first-level high-grade puppets are currently equivalent to spiritual farmers in the late stage of Qi training, and can practice and recover independently.
So as long as they are brought to Ziyun Sect, they will be free labor for a long time.
The second-level mid-level puppet requires the consumption of five-element attribute spirit stones, and its current cultivation level is roughly similar to that of a mid-stage foundation-building monk.
Take the two second-level mid-grade puppets he refined this time as an example.
The second-level mid-level spiritual farmer puppet is a single spiritual farmer soul puppet. It already has the basic attributes of a second-level spiritual farmer and can cultivate second-level spiritual crops.
The other second-grade medium-grade golden armor puppet was made of second-grade gold black iron with a heavy investment.
This golden black iron is so hard that even a second-order spiritual sword cannot easily break it, and its defense is strong.
In addition to using the Golden Armor Soul Puppet Seal, Zhou Ling also incorporated the Feitian Soul Seal.
Let the golden armor puppet master the golden armor body protection technique and the cracking gold fist, and be extremely fast at the same time.
Basically, his strength is no less than that of a mid-stage foundation-building monk.
It is difficult for ordinary monks in the middle stage of foundation building to break through its golden armor defense.
Of course, this five-element puppet with attack attributes not only consumes a lot of raw materials, but also consumes a lot of money each time it is activated.
Five middle-grade spirit stones with five elements attributes can only be used to defend or attack the golden armor three times.
This is much more expensive than opening the second-level mid-grade spiritual robe.
Of course, Zhou Ling had already expected this.
It is acceptable to consume more points, as long as it is effective at the critical moment.
A golden-armored puppet like this can also block one or two attacks from the monks in the late stage of foundation building.
After collecting four of the spirit farmer puppets, Zhou Ling immediately took out five middle-grade spirit stones from his storage ring.
Now I still have dozens of mid-grade spiritual stones in my hand.
In addition to the Tianpin foundation building rewards this time, there are also the gains from the last trip to Tianyun Realm.
Of course there are also some that come from the Tiangong Division for monthly offerings.
Now that the foundation has been successfully established, Tiangong Division’s salary will also be improved.
The situation in the Tiangong Division is not bad. They only need to refine some treasures and not use them for other matters, but the various welfare benefits are not low.
And if you can get the Tiangong Division to focus on training Tiangong Guards, then the salary will definitely be increased several times.
Therefore, we must fight for this matter.
After stuffing five medium-grade spiritual stones into the core control slot of the golden armored puppet, Zhou Ling read the magic formula according to the magic spell recorded in the Five Elements Puppetry Technique to activate the golden armored soul puppet seal.
In an instant, a bright light flashed across the body of the Five Elements Puppet, and soon its face was a little dull. Emerge with vitality and vitality.
And in Zhou Ling's sea of consciousness, he also felt a mysterious connection.
Looking at the aura that the puppet is exuding at this moment, it is even stronger than him.
Zhou Ling looked satisfied.
Immediately sent the first thought to the puppet, asking him to meditate and practice.
The golden-armored puppet immediately imitated Zhou Ling, sitting cross-legged and practicing with every breath.
“As expected, there is no need to consume spiritual consciousness!”
“And it is exactly the same as a monk’s cultivation. This is really perfect!”
Feeling the aura of the puppet, Zhou Ling looked happy.
As long as it is not fighting, this puppet's daily actions will not consume spiritual stones.
Of course, practicing this way cannot improve its strength.
To achieve independent advancement through practice, you can only refine the native puppet.
With these five puppets as a foundation, Zhou Ling was also eager to try and refine a native cultivation puppet.
But considering the creation of the natal puppet, the materials must be better.
Although I still have dozens of mid-grade spiritual stones in my hand, I want to keep them to enter the Ancient Cloud Realm, so the spiritual stones are not enough for the time being.
But if you have enough points from the Taoist Academy or Tiangong Division, you can use the points to exchange for materials.
This can save spirit stones, and at the same time, the quality of the materials will be better than those purchased in the market.
“But the Five Elements Puppet is not like this, it can be solved once and for all!”
Looking at the golden armor puppet, Zhou Ling murmured again.
Even if the puppet has a little spirituality and autonomy, the puppet is still a puppet after all. Still have a spiritual connection with myself.
If you encounter an opponent whose soul is stronger than your own, your connection with the puppet general's soul may be severed.
The puppet will then be out of your control.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ling's eyes changed and he felt that he needed to improve his soul cultivation as soon as possible, and also needed some coping methods.
For example, if you give a command to a puppet, once it is separated from your soul, it will immediately self-destruct.
Of course, this is a last resort option.
Even if you self-destruct, you cannot let the puppet fall into the hands of others, otherwise you will suffer a big loss.
However, after all, this is a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution.
To blacksmith, you have to be strong enough.
Thinking of this, he took out the pill bottle from the storage ring and poured out the Soul Essence Pill.
This is the elixir rewarded by the Taoist Academy.
I saw two red lines flashing on the surface that was shining with crystal light.
“Er Dan Soul Yuan Dan!”
"The products produced by the Taoist Academy are indeed excellent!"
Zhou Lingxuan threw the Soul Yuan Pill into his mouth and drank it.
Then the magic method is run, refining and absorbing the medicinal power.
A feeling of coolness permeates the air.
[You are absorbing the power of Soul Essence Pill, the elixir stress +1, the power of Soul Essence Pill +1]
As the power of the medicine spread rapidly, Zhou Ling, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, felt waves of turbulent power of the medicine in his sea of consciousness, like torrential waves, sweeping over him.
There was a huge roaring sound in my head, my ears hurt unbearably, and my whole sea of consciousness seemed to be overturned.
Immediately, Zhou Ling's eyes darkened, and his face showed pain.
You must know that this is a second-level mid-grade second-grade soul essence pill with two pill patterns. The soul power contained in it can be imagined.
Coupled with the stimulation of [Elixir Stress], the power of the medicine skyrocketed.
Zhou Ling had difficulty refining them slowly for a while.
You can only keep running the "Qing Hui Spirit Nourishing Technique" and try your best to refine the medicinal power.
[You are absorbing the soul power of the Soul Yuan Dan. The more you are frustrated, the braver you will become +1, and your proficiency in "Qing Hui Soul Cultivation Technique" +30].
Fortunately, [the more frustrated you become, the more courage you get] comes into play again.
Zhou Ling finally woke up from his dizziness and exhaled heavily.
His complexion gradually recovered.
As the "Qing Hui Soul Cultivation Technique" continues to operate, the soul's cultivation level increases at a speed visible to the naked eye.
On the soul seed, the shadow of the fire maple tree grew in a large circle again, reaching about half a foot, and dozens of red leaves grew out.
This is the second level of "Qing Hui Soul Nourishing Technique".
Zhou Ling was overjoyed. He could feel that at this moment, his soul cultivation had improved significantly.
More than half an hour later, as the medicinal power was completely absorbed and refined, Zhou Ling opened his eyes with bright eyes.
After thoroughly absorbing the huge medicinal power of the Soul Yuan Pill, and with the help of his talent [The more frustrated he becomes, the braver he becomes], his understanding of the "Qing Hui Soul Cultivation Technique" naturally entered the second level.
Open up the meridians of the second level of "Qing Hui Nourishing Art".
At this time, Zhou Ling's pupils were revealed, and his whole body was exuding a thick and mysterious aura. The aura of his whole body was significantly improved from before.
The second level of practice of "Qing Hui Spirituality Technique" is completed!
His spiritual consciousness reaches 500 feet, which is more than an ordinary monk in the middle stage of foundation building.
Furthermore, the purity of the soul has also been significantly improved.
The help in refining treasures, controlling puppets, etc. has greatly increased.
And with the opening of the second level of meridians in "Qing Hui Nourishing Technique".
He also mastered several new methods of controlling spiritual consciousness.
God Splitting Technique, Soul Melting Technique and God Controlling Slash.
As the name suggests, the art of splitting the soul is to divide one's soul into several independent souls, attack at the same time, or control items.
This divine soul technique is undoubtedly very useful for Zhou Ling who practices puppetry.
With this divine soul technique, he can control several puppets at the same time without excessive consumption of the divine soul.
The soul-melting technique is to re-integrate the power of the soul through the soul seeds in the sea of consciousness, which can make the soul gain considerable improvement in a short period of time.
The third soul skill, Divine Slash, is the most practical method of attacking the soul.
It is the evolved version of the sword that condenses the soul when the first level is perfect.
With his powerful Kobe cultivation, he slashed out the Soul Sword.
This is an extremely powerful divine soul technique.
Able to launch soul attacks against opponents miles away.
"If combined with my [Spiritual Soul as Sword], this Divine Slash can crush even a monk in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. It is simply the best killing technique to kill enemies across levels!"
Feeling the divine soul technique he had just comprehended, Zhou Ling's face was filled with joy and he was thinking in his mind.
Compared with the previous two divine soul techniques, this divine slashing technique is one that Zhou Ling wants to master as soon as possible.
Of course, it is also the most difficult among the three techniques.
So now we can only do it step by step.
With the help of talents, you can improve your proficiency step by step, and it won't take long to fully master it.
As for the Divine Splitting Technique, due to the power of his soul, he is also assisted by the two talents of [Soul Training] and [Meticulousness].
This is the easiest thing for him to master.
It is also very practical.
As long as you reach a certain level.
He can control several puppets at the same time to fight against the enemy.
And he currently has five second-level puppets in his hands.
If he can control them all, he will be able to fight against the late-stage foundation-building monks.
However, this splitting technique has a weakness. The differentiated divine consciousness is much weaker than the original divine consciousness.
Once attacked by the opponent, it may even be destroyed.
That would also have a considerable impact on his consciousness.
This is also a problem to be solved next.
“I wonder if it can be used with [Shenhun Rudao]?”
Zhou Ling was thinking in his mind.
With [Soul as a Knife] combined with the God Splitting Technique, the power will definitely increase.
Of course, the key point is to improve the "Qinghui Spiritual Cultivation Technique" and the cultivation of one's own spiritual consciousness.
This is fundamental.
Then he glanced at the golden-armored puppet and smiled, "From now on, you will be called Jinjia."
The golden-armored puppet stood up, with a delighted smile on his face, and then bowed towards Zhou Ling A salute.
Although he can't speak yet, some basic expressions of thinking have been demonstrated.
Zhou Ling was also very satisfied with this, and immediately sent him an order, asking him to be responsible for the safety of the monastery and the cleaning and housework.
It is a bit wasteful to let a second-level high-grade puppet do housework.
However, this does not consume spiritual stones and will not have any impact.
Zhou Ling also wanted to give it a try. What are its specific conditions in various aspects?
Immediately, the golden-armored puppet took the order and walked out of the training room.
Started cleaning the small courtyard of the monastery.
