"Are these second-level puppets?" Bai Yuan on the side couldn't help but ask, while looking at these puppets, his eyes shone.
"Yeah! They are all second-level, first-level puppets. I didn't refine them."
Su Fan nodded. Although first-level puppets are easier to refine, they are just like that. Their strength is only at the late stage of Qi training. For the Su family, there is no improvement.
But this second-level puppet is different. The monks at the ninth level of Qi training can refine it, and with their souls, they can also exert the combat power of the first and second levels of foundation building.
Although it cannot last long and cannot be like a real Foundation-Building monk, allowing the ninth level of Qi training to exert the combat power of a Foundation-Building monk is equivalent to adding the combat power of six more Foundation-Building monks.
Therefore, the eyes of the senior executives of the Su family and the Bai family are different.
This puppet is a rarity in Zheng itself.
After all, puppets and magic weapons are different. Some magic weapons can be made by some weapon refiners through trial and error, even if there is no weapon refining method.
But puppets do require special refining methods. Without a refining method, you simply can't make them.
Therefore, there has never been any trading of puppets in the markets of Zheng State, and even the Yunyang Sect may not have such a thing.
Even if I'm afraid I didn't refine it myself, someone probably brought it back from other immortal cultivation countries.
If the Yunyang Sect can really refine it, it will definitely sell it, even though the cost of this thing is very high.
Not to mention the first-level magic weapon, which is far superior to the same-level magic weapon, the second-level puppet costs 15,000 to 6,000.
Of course, depending on the refining method, the cost is within this range anyway.
The reason why it is so high is also because the materials it requires, especially the core material soul crystal, the second-level soul crystal, cost about 10,000 per piece.
The higher the quality, the more expensive the price will naturally be.
The method of refining puppets in this world is somewhat similar to that in the Great Qin world. However, in the Great Qin world, there are no spirit stones. The puppets are driven entirely by the gods' divine cores, and the divine cores are similar to the soul crystals in this world.
And the role of spiritual stones.
The function of the soul crystal is to connect the monk's spiritual consciousness to drive the puppet. The spirit stone is naturally the source of power.
The divine core of the Great Qin world includes both of them.
But relatively speaking, the divine core is naturally more precious. After all, the divine core can also automatically absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth to recharge it. It can be said to be like a perpetual motion machine.
In the main world, there is naturally no divine core, so Su Fan can only use the soul crystal to refine the puppet.
The second-level soul crystal is about 10,000, and the quality is a little higher, 13,000 to 4,000.
Coupled with other main materials, it would cost about 15,000 to 15,000 to build such a second-level puppet beast, and even a top-level second-level one would require a little more than 20,000.
It's just that the soul crystals Su Fan purchased were all second-level and lower-grade, so the cost was lower. Of course, this also meant that the puppet beast's combat power was relatively lower.
But no matter how low it is, it still has the combat power of the early stage of foundation building. If it is sold, the cost of 15,000 will be sold for 25,000. Not to mention the price, there will be no market.
But there will definitely be people willing to buy it.
It is true that the price is more expensive than the Foundation Establishment Pill, but the Foundation Establishment Pill is priceless and cannot be bought just by having a spiritual stone.
And this, if you have the method to refine it, you can buy it.
Therefore, Su Fan believed that some immortal cultivating families would inevitably buy one or two to keep as part of their family heritage.
To prevent the family's foundation-building monks from suddenly failing in the future, having such a second-level puppet can also deter some people with bad intentions.
You must know that for many foundation-building families, not every generation can have foundation-building monks. Many qi-training families have existed longer than the Su family, and their ancestors have multiple foundation-building monks.
But as a result, during the period of the previous Foundation-Building monk, the next Foundation-Building disciple could not be trained, so there was a gap in the family.
Because the family has foundation-building monks, they can usually build a second-level spiritual vein. However, once the family loses the foundation-building monks to intimidate them, there will definitely be many casual cultivators, especially those who have no basis to spy on them.
After all, the number of second-level spiritual veins in the Zheng Kingdom is not as large as the number of foundations, especially for casual cultivators. What is rogue cultivators? They have no foundation, just like duckweeds.
And once you have a spiritual vein, you are considered a family monk.
In the Su family back then, before Su Wanjun became a foundation-building monk, the Su family had a dozen or so scattered monks at the beginning, and none of them could be considered family monks.
Later, Su Wanjun laid down a first-level spiritual vein and established the Su family. When Su Wanjun succeeded in building the foundation, he laid down Yuntai Mountain and became the five major foundation-building families in Yu County.
If Su Wanjun had died during the century-old monster invasion and the First Elder had not yet established the foundation, I am afraid that the current Su family would also be dispersed.
Because there must be foundation-building monks who want to attack Yuntai Mountain.
Even back then, after the patriarch Su Wanjun was injured, some foundation-building monks did come to take a peek, but they were eventually scared away by Su Wanjun.
Therefore, in Su Fan's view, there is still a certain market for these second-level puppets and even third-level puppets. Even if they are not popular, some families are still willing to buy one as a legacy for their family.
This second-level puppet can earn about 10,000 spiritual stones, which may not be a big deal to a behemoth like the Yunyang Sect.
But for some monks in Yunyang Sect, it must be a big temptation.
However, it has never appeared in the market, which means that the Yunyang Sect does not have such a refining method.
The Yunyang Sect is a major Jindan sect, but after all, its foundation is not that deep. Its history of existence is only tens of thousands of years, and its scope of influence has never exceeded the Zheng State.
It is normal to not have such a collection.
After all, this puppet itself is a rare thing, and the method of refining it is probably a treasure among the big powers. The big powers may sell the puppet, but selling the method of refining it is probably impossible.
Maybe some powerful people with declining family fortunes may sell it, provided they own it.
Su Fan's refining method came from other worlds, and he created it himself in the evolution space, and it was still in Nanli Country. After he purchased a first-level puppet, he went through the evolution space and continued to practice before he created it.
The refining method invented.
If there was no cheating device like the evolution space, he wanted to create a puppet refining method that belonged to the main world, but he didn't know how much materials would be consumed.
Just like scientific research in later generations, if there is virtual imaging and artificial intelligence, a lot of materials may be saved, and the evolution space is similar.
Moreover, the evolution space is more advanced and its effect is more powerful.
This is also the reason why Su Fan's level of alchemy and talisman making improved so quickly.
