Chapter 220: Chapter 212: Foundation Establishment Spirit Puppet

Translator: 549690339

These patterns…

They are designed to enhance the hardness of these materials and the control of the spirit puppet’s core over them.

Spirit puppet…

Its body is full of intricate patterns. Though these patterns appear mysterious, they serve the simple purpose of making the puppet easier to manipulate and more durable.

The most important part of the spirit puppet is its core.

Crafting the core is when He Song’s skill truly comes to the test.

The patterns currently being engraved into these materials are just sculpting the body of the spirit puppet, making it more resilient and less susceptible to destruction.

And since the body is cast in one piece, the durability of the spirit puppet will significantly increase.

After crafting the body of the spirit puppet and ensuring its durability,

The next step is to shape the form.

He Song stretches a large lump of materials in front of him and tailors it into a human form.

As for the likenesses…

After some thought, He Song eventually shaped it into a delicate-looking child.

The child figure has no gender traits. He Song suddenly thought of how famous monks and Taoists usually have two children following them. Therefore, he decided to model his first spirit puppet as a small child.

Unfortunately…

Due to the multitude of patterns engraved on the materials to ensure their strength,

This delicate child figure, covered in intricate patterns, looks nothing like an ordinary person.

But He Song didn’t mind.

After the body of the spirit puppet was completed, He Song quickly started crafting its core.

The core of a typical puppet…

Requires the use of a demonic beast core.

A demonic beast core is similar to a cultivator’s Golden Elixir, it’s birthed for storing a demonic beast’s powers.

However, there isn’t much similarity between a demonic beast core and a Golden Elixir.

The closest resemblance they share is that both are incredibly durable and contain powerful energy.

If judged by power, the energy within a demonic beast core pales compared to that contained within a Golden Elixir unless it has reached the Golden Elixir Realm.

A demonic beast core at the Foundation Establishment Realm is valuable.

It probably costs tens of thousands of spirit stones each.

He Song is unclear about this.

But…

He doesn’t need to know.

The crafting of spirit puppets does not require these.

The materials required to produce a spirit puppet core, as recorded in the Spirit Puppet Skill, had been purchased by him a long time ago.

A single spirit puppet only costs about twenty thousand spirit stones in materials.

Compared to conventional puppets, the Spirit Puppet Skill seemed to have indeed saved He Song a fair amount of spirit stones. The core of the spirit puppet is made from a special material.

It is called Soul Accommodating Jade.

Soul Accommodating Jade…

As the name suggests…

It’s a jade that can host souls.

To manufacture the core of a spirit puppet, one needs to cast a soul into the Soul Accommodating Jade and refine it with a special method.

After the refining process, the soul in the jade is transformed. The spirit puppet core made from the Soul Accommodating Jade naturally possesses a hint of spirituality.

This is the origin of the term Spirit Puppet Skill.

Having this touch of spirituality is the essence of the Spirit Puppet Skill.

The Spirit Puppet Skill derives from the Demonic Puppet Refining Skill Means, and it’s a normal practice to use souls for refining.

When He Song first came across this method, he was a bit reluctant.

However, when he learned how to collect the souls referred to here, his reluctance disappeared.

The souls referred to in the Puppet Refining Skill does not require He Song to personally kill cultivators, imprison their souls, and refine them.

It is also possible to use the souls of ordinary demonic beasts to manufacture the core of a spirit puppet.

In fact, because the souls of demonic beasts carry a strong killing intent, the core of the spirit puppet refined using a beast soul will be more combat capable.

Thus, knowing there is a better method without having to kill people for his cause..

He Song finally set his mind at rest and began to collect various materials for the crafting of a spirit puppet.

At this time…

Knowing that it is better to use a demonic beast soul, He Song took out a Soul Accommodating Jade from his storage bag and turned his gaze towards Yu’er beside him.

Yu’er was oblivious of what was going on, seeing He Song looking towards it, she quickly shrank her neck.

Seeing this, He Song shifted his gaze away from her.

This turtle… Doesn’t look like a bloodthirsty demonic beast, right?

Yu’er hid her head in her shell for a long time before peeking out again, completely clueless that she just had a close brush with death.

At this moment, He Song had already held the Soul Accommodating Jade in his hand and started to cast his spell.

Since he already knew that the core of the spirit puppet requires the soul of a demonic beast…

How could He Song be unprepared?

Earlier, before he went to visit Meng Guan and Wei Fan, he already killed a few demonic beasts in the Qi Refining stage during his journey and sealed their souls into the Soul Accommodating Jade.

So at this time, all He Song needed to do was to start the refining process.

Time passed in the blink of an eye.

In the blink of an eye…

Several days had passed.

At one moment, He Song, who was refining the demonic beast’s soul, suddenly relaxed his brows.

“The spirit puppet core is complete!”

“Next, just need to integrate the spirit puppet core into the spirit puppet’s body and activate it with a secret method.”

“Then, the spirit puppet will be complete.”

With the steps of crafting a spirit puppet flashing through his mind, He Song began to act without hesitation.

First step…

He refined the core of the spirit puppet in his hand with his mana and sealed it into the pre-made spirit puppet’s body.

Due to the existence of mana and both having been refined by He Song, the fusion of the two went quite smoothly.

After the spirit puppet’s core fully integrated into the body of the spirit puppet, it was firmly protected in the safest position.

He Song’s mind moved, and his mana was driven.

The child covered in patterns in front of him stood up with a swish.

Seeing this.

He Song’s mind moved again.

The child in front of him, following He Song’s will, took a step forward.

His mind moved again.

The child reached out his hand and swung it hard at the place where He Song was.

At the same time, a shield also appeared in front of He Song.

The child’s hand hit hard on the Green Water Tortoise Shell Shield, making He Song feel a powerful counteracting force.

Feeling the intensity of this hit, He Song was not surprised but delighted.

“Good, good, although it can’t reach the level of the Foundation Establishment realm, it is not too far behind. It’s more than enough to deal with Qi Refining cultivators, and even poses a certain threat to a Master in the Foundation Establishment realm.”

“Moreover, if there are a few more spirit puppets, attacking together, considering the strength of the spirit puppets, even if it’s a siege on the Foundation Establishment cultivator, it could well be a piece of cake.”

“With these spirit puppets, in the future battles, it’s as if I have several powerful assistants.”

Gazing eagerly at the child in front of him, He Song was filled with joy.

Nearly twenty years in the Foundation Establishment stage.

Only now does he feel he truly possesses the ability to crush cultivators of the same level.

From now on, even if Early Foundation Establishment Cultivators attacked, he would not feel any fear or cowardice.

Even if he met the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, he could rely on the spirit puppets to desperately block while he uses the Blood Escape Skill to save his life.

Not until this moment did He Song finally relax.

In his heart, he also got a handle on the threat posed by Master Ningyin.

Master Ningyin.

He was the origin of the spirit puppet technique on He Song’s body.

He was also the Master that He Song had killed when he first arrived at the Herbs Immortal Workshop, Cheng Yan’s master.

Now, with He Song holding the Herbs Immortal Workshop and having killed the disciples of Master Ningyin, once the Seven Star Sect returns, Master Ningyin will certainly focus on him.

At that time, He Song, with his spirit puppets and his powerful battle strength, would even have the chance to fight against Master Ningyin alone.

These years.

After killing Cheng Yan, He Song had always been worried about the return of Master Ningyin.

But now.

When he produced his first spirit puppet.

The worries in his heart also disappeared.

With several spirit puppets protecting him.

Even if he couldn’t beat the so-called Master Ningyin.

As long as he left one, or several spirit puppets behind, he could still escape.

While in a lively mood, He Song looked at the child in front of him and found the timing to be spot-on.

“From now on, you’ll be called Qing Feng.”

“I’ll refine another child next, and then call it Mingyue.” “With these two children, I’ll refine a few more servants, mounts”

“I think that should not cause any problems.”

Having named Qing Feng, He Song’s thoughts started to wander, calculating even the spirit puppets he’d refine next.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator now, he definitely needed servants.

By that time, any servant he casually brings out would have the strength of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, anyone who hears about it would surely be scared to death.

As for a mount, should he get a tiger?

Should he refine a flying mount? A Golden Winged Roc?

However.

While He Song was contemplating about the varying spirit puppets he needed to refine next.

He noticed a pair of eyes locking onto the Green Water Tortoise Shell Shield in front of him.

At this moment, besides He Song, only Yu’er was in the quiet room.

So naturally, the owner of those eyes was Yu’er.

Why is Yu’er looking at the shield?

With curiosity.

He Song glanced at Yu’er, then at the Green Water Tortoise Shell Shield in front of him.

Green Water Tortoise Shell Shield?

Isn’t Yu’er also a turtle?

The next moment.

He Song took the Green Water Tortoise Shell Shield back into his body, obstructing Yu’er’s view.

He had made a mistake.

When he bought this shield, he had forgotten about Yu’er.

He Song silently warned himself that he should never release this shield in front of Yu’er in the future.

Otherwise, when Yu’er gains spiritual intelligence in the future, it would be hard to explain the origins of the Green Water Tortoise Shell Shield.

He opened the quiet room.

He casually threw Yu’er out.

He also threw Qing Feng out nonchalantly.

Then he closed the door.

Soon He Song sat cross-legged on the futon again, with a flood of memories about precious spirit plant cultivation methods emerging in his mind.

These were the pieces of information he obtained from the Book Collection Pavilion of the Thick Earth Sect.

Now that the spirit puppet is complete, he only needs to follow the plan and he will be able to refine the new spirit puppet as before.

While refining the spirit puppets on the one hand, it is also time for him to pick one or two pieces of information to ensure his future source of spirit stones..
