Obtain the Divine Puppet Seal and refine a seventh-level puppet!
“With your excellent Puppet Refining ability, you easily passed the first trial and received the reward from the Xuan Tian Secret Realm: a Profound Origin Stone, an excellent Material for refining Puppets.”
“You continuously passed the preceding trials, and the Artifact Refining Materials you obtained became increasingly Advanced… You finally passed the ninth trial with your excellent skill, arriving at the final stage.”
“This trial requires you to refine a Puppet using your self-created refining method. The remnant thought left by Mystic Heaven Taoist will observe from the side. If you gain his approval, you can obtain the God Puppet Imprint.”
“After a period of adjustment, you prepared to begin refining the Puppet…”
“Under the gaze of Mystic Heaven Taoist’s remnant thought, you placed the Materials needed to refine the Puppet into the Cauldron. The Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire surged, and in less than ten minutes, the Materials melted into liquid. You then successively added the other auxiliary Materials, and the refining process went very smoothly…”
“Thirty minutes passed, and you had refined all the Materials needed for the Puppet into liquid. You took out a Beast Soul from your Storage Ring and infused it into the Puppet for Fusion. The Puppet gradually took shape, and the incomplete Beast Soul, residing within the Puppet, gave birth to a trace of sentience…”
“Ultimately, you refined a sixth-tier Puppet. The Puppet, fused with the Beast Soul’s will, developed intelligence, enough to understand simple commands. And because of the Beast Soul Fusion, the Puppet’s beastly nature became violent, making its attack power even stronger.”
“Mystic Heaven Taoist’s remnant thought, who had watched the entire refining process, commented on your refining method: ‘It has its merits.’ You passed the test and obtained the God Puppet Imprint Art.”
“You left the Xuan Tian Secret Realm and found a quiet environment to enter seclusion and Cultivate. You flipped through the beast skin scroll recording the God Puppet Imprint. As you delved deeper, you were astonished by the various Puppet refining methods recorded within the God Puppet Imprint, deeming them heavenly.”
“Twelve months passed, and you officially mastered the God Puppet Imprint. Through the God Puppet Imprint method, you were now able to refine God Puppets.”
“Simulation ended, settling now…”
… …
Consciousness returned to reality, and the Cultivation method of the God Puppet Imprint was firmly etched in Jiang Qing’s mind.
“As expected of something called the God Puppet Imprint, its effects are truly astonishing.”
“Mystic Heaven Taoist is truly a rare Genius!”
Jiang Qing was filled with endless admiration for the God Puppet Imprint.
Before obtaining the God Puppet Imprint, Jiang Qing had already dabbled in the Dao of Puppets, and being able to refine a sixth-tier Puppet was enough to prove his profound mastery.
However, the various Puppet refining methods recorded in the God Puppet Imprint completely overturned his understanding, greatly broadening his horizons in the Dao of a Civilization Master.
Mystic Heaven Taoist divided Puppet refining methods into two types: Dead Refining and Live Refining.
Dead Refining refers to Puppets refined from various Ore Materials. This method is considered inferior, and Puppets refined this way rarely develop sentience, only capable of understanding simple commands.
Live Refining, on the other hand, involves directly refining living people. The stronger the Martial Dao Cultivator used, the better. While they are still alive, molten iron is poured into and infiltrates their Physical Body, refining them into Puppets while they are still alive.
Such Puppets still retain fragments of their Soul in their minds, and thus they are called God Puppets, naturally retaining most of their sentience.
God Puppets can Cultivate Cultivation Techniques and utilize Martial Arts. Their strength is far greater than Puppets created through Dead Refining. They can also obey their master’s commands, perform complex tasks, and are not much different from humans.
At the same time, the Cultivator embeds the God Puppet Imprint deep within the Puppet’s Soul, thereby firmly controlling the Puppet’s sentience, ensuring it never betrays them.
Even if the one refined into a Puppet is a sworn enemy with deep hatred, with the God Puppet Imprint in place, they can only obediently work for oneself, which is terrifying to the extreme.
Jiang Qing sat cross-legged and adjusted his breathing for a moment, then officially began to condense the God Puppet Imprint.
Cultivating the God Puppet Imprint requires spatial extraordinary Materials. Coincidentally, Jiang Qing had obtained some in previous simulations, which could be used to condense the God Puppet Imprint.
Having experience from previous simulations, Jiang Qing was adept at it. In less than an hour, he successfully condensed the God Puppet Imprint.
“It’s done! Tomorrow, I’ll conduct another simulation to accumulate resources, and the day after tomorrow, I’ll officially refine the Puppet!”
Jiang Qing had an idea in his mind.
Since he was going to refine a Puppet capable of protecting him in later generations, it had to be as perfect as possible.
Tomorrow, he would conduct a simulation to accumulate the Ore Materials and Cultivation resources needed for refining Puppets.
The day after tomorrow’s simulation would focus solely on Cultivation. Once his Mental Energy was sufficient, he would begin refining, aiming to make the Puppet’s strength invincible among its peers.
Arriving at the meditation room, Jiang Qing began to meditate on Mental Energy.
Mystic Heaven Taoist was a dual Cultivator of both civil and Martial Arts. His five seals were also most effective when used by dual Cultivators.
Jiang Qing’s Martial Dao Cultivation was keeping up; next, he needed to intensely improve his Mental Energy strength.
… …
The next day.
Jiang Qing conducted a simulation.
“You projected yourself into the Ancient Era for one year. You joined the Civilization Saint Hall, refining a large number of Medicinal Pills and Puppets to obtain a large amount of merit points. You exchanged all the merit points for Materials used to refine Puppets and Cultivation resources. One year later, you buried all your gains in a hidden location.”
…
The following day.
Jiang Qing rubbed his hands and began the simulation.
“Simulation Target: Jiang Qing.”
“Simulation World: Battlefield of the Heavens.”
“Simulation Time: Ancient Era.”
“Duration: 1 year.”
“Simulation Conditions: Focus on improving Mental Energy strength in the early stage. Once Mental Energy is sufficient, begin refining a God Puppet.”
“Simulation starting…”
“In the Ancient Era, you appeared in a forest on the Battlefield of the Heavens. You unearthed the resources you had buried and arrived at the secluded Cultivation spot you left during the previous simulation, focusing on your Cultivation…”
“One month passed, and your Realm Advanced to the middle stage of Spirit Nurturing…”
“Six months passed, and you Advanced to an extraordinary Civilization Master. Your Mental Energy underwent an ultimate sublimation, and your Martial Dao Cultivation greatly surged under the nourishment of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi…”
“Ten months passed, and you became a mid-tier Cloud Soaring Civilization Master. Through the continuous tempering of the Expanding Spirit Art, your Mental Energy strength was comparable to a low-tier Mountain and Sea Realm Civilization Master.”
“You felt your Mental Energy was sufficient and prepared to refine a seventh-tier God Puppet. You inquired about information in the outside world and eventually captured a Martial Venerable Peak expert who was notorious for his evil deeds. You brought him back to your secluded Cultivation spot and began refining a Live Puppet.”
“Eleven months passed. You placed the Martial Venerable Peak expert into the Purple Lightning Profound Cauldron for refining, simultaneously refining other Puppet refining Materials into liquid with a divided mind…”
“Ten days passed. The Martial Venerable Peak expert’s internal organs were completely incinerated, and all of his energy accumulated in his bones, flesh, and skin, greatly increasing his defensive power.”
“Twenty days passed. The Martial Venerable expert’s Physical Body was refined to be as hard as iron. You poured the molten iron, refined from Ore Materials, into his Physical Body, causing the molten iron to fuse with the Martial Venerable expert’s Physical Body, greatly increasing the God Puppet’s defensive power.”
“Amidst the agonizing screams of the Peak Martial Venerable, his Soul shattered into pieces, but it was firmly confined by the God Puppet Imprint.”
“Twenty-five days passed, and a seventh-tier God Puppet was born. You named it ‘Kui Yi.’ You returned to the Human Race Ancestral Star with Kui Yi and buried it along with all your lifelong gains behind the Jiang Zhe Martial University in later generations…”
“Simulation ended, settling now…”
