Chapter 296 Puppet Clone

Qizhenlou, alchemy room.

After hearing the news, Granny Yun came over to identify the three foundation-building pills that Lu Changan had refined.

"They are all genuine Foundation-Building Pills with very few impurities. I admire Master Xu's superb alchemy skills."

Grandma Yun was full of praise.

The Yun brothers and sisters were delighted and had smiles on their faces.

After refining the elixir in one go, both brother and sister got the foundation-building elixir. Not only did it save financial resources and time, but it also reduced risks.

"Zhenren Xu, this is your reward."

Granny Yun accepted two Foundation Building Pills and gave the other one to Lu Changan.

This was a prior agreement.

If three foundation-building pills are refined, Lu Changan will take one of them as reward.

After this alchemy, both parties got to know each other and established initial trust.

Lu Changan's alchemy skills were recognized by Granny Yun.

The three foundation-building pills are all of high quality, and the elixir refining speed is fast and stable.

With such skills, he is at least a quasi-third-level alchemist.

Moreover, Master Xu claimed that he could still refine a small number of third-level elixirs, but the success rate was not high.

Qizhen Building, living room on the first floor.

Grandma Yun personally made tea for Lu Changan and chatted for a while.

During this period, Granny Yun calmly looked at Mr. Xu, making sure that the latter's appearance and charm were not any old friend in her memory.

"Is it an illusory past life of reincarnation?"

Grandma Yun was uncertain.

However, after reincarnation, the next life is equal to a new life, and it doesn't matter even your closest relatives, and they may even fight each other.

Therefore, there is no point in exploring past lives.

Unless the mystery of the womb can be broken and the memories of past lives can be awakened.

But only powerful people, or those who practice reincarnation attributes, can do this.

Master Xu, as a master of alchemy and a quasi-third-level alchemist, is at least one or two hundred years old.

Li Huo's soul was extinguished, he had been dead for decades, and his age was completely inappropriate.

"This person is elegant and easy-going. He has a really good face and is easy to please most people..."

During the conversation, Grandma Yun became more and more comfortable and happy to talk with her.

Whether it's a fate of reincarnation or a real affinity, it's a good thing and this person is worth winning over.

Lu Changan didn't want to have in-depth communication with Granny Yun, but she was too interested in talking to her.

With great difficulty, he got to the point:

"Shop Manager Yun, I heard Yun Ling say before that if this alchemy is successful, will you recommend a comfortable and free third-level spiritual dojo to Xu?"

Granny Yun felt a little annoyed for no reason, seeing that Lu Changan didn't want to talk to an old woman like herself.

She mused: "It is true, I will help introduce you. But whether it can be successful depends on Xu Zhenren's skills and character."

"I approve of Master Xu's skills. In the end, it depends on the opinion of Master Xu's old friend. Because he is in charge of that spiritual dojo."

"That spiritual vein dojo is in the Heyuan Oasis? Which force owns it?"

Lu Changan asked.

"It's in the Heyuan Oasis. That dojo does not belong to a certain force. It does not require Master Xu to work hard, and there are not so many restrictions. Master Xu only needs to steadily complete some alchemy commissions, train some medicine boys, and help take care of the things there.

Herbs…”

The conditions stated by Granny Yun made Lu Changan tempted.

He estimated that it should be a small private third-level spiritual dojo.

In addition to being divided into grades, spiritual veins are also divided into scales.

The higher the level of spiritual veins, the larger the scale.

There are also small third-level spiritual veins, most of which are cultivated and not formed innately.

For example, it is not a problem for Jinyun Valley's medium and large third-level spiritual veins to supply seven or eight true elixirs for cultivation at the same time.

"How long will it take before we have accurate information?"

Lu Changan's other two alternatives are not as good as this one.

"It will take about half a year for my old friend to return to Heyuan Oasis. If Master Xu has no better choice, you might as well wait."

"Okay, then it will take half a year."

Lu Changan agreed.

He estimated that half a year was just Yun Yan's rhetoric.

During this period of time, Yun Yan and her old friend will probably investigate Xu Zhenren's origins and examine his character.



The next day.

Lu Changan rented a private courtyard in Fangshi for half a year, which was more cost-effective and more private than an inn.

For half a year, he did not have third-level spiritual veins, but only enjoyed second-level spiritual veins. Lu Changan used spiritual stone pills as a supplement.

However, spiritual stone elixirs cannot be relied on for a long time, otherwise it will reduce the monk's understanding of the world and stifle his own potential.

Moreover, the cost is more than ten times more expensive than renting a spiritual vein.

For half a year, Lu Changan focused on studying "The Record of Transforming Supernatural Puppetry" and Adamaru's puppet experience to improve his skills and inspiration.

That human-faced dragon female puppet is the result of Adamaru's lifelong research.

This supernatural puppet alone has benefited Lu Changan a lot.

The human-faced dragon girl can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, with a completion rate of about 70%. It has some flaws, and the battle cannot last long, and it is prone to malfunctions.

In addition, the human-faced dragon puppet's independent consciousness is somewhat repulsive to Lu Changan's control and is restrained.

After all, the spirit-infused consciousness of the puppet was once the biological sister who fell in love with Adamaru.

Fortunately, Lu Changan has no intention of using "her" to fight, just as a research product.

By studying this supernatural puppet, Lu Changan quickly understood the method of injecting spirits in the "Record of Transforming Spiritual Puppet".

In less than a month, he learned successfully.

After all, Lu Changan has the vision consciousness of Nascent Soul, powerful spiritual consciousness, and his puppetry skills are close to the third-level mid-level.

After learning the method of injecting souls into puppets, Lu Changan is looking for test subjects.

It needs to be refined to regenerate the soul, and the effect is better with intelligent humans, but the methods are cruel.

Although Lu Changan is not a virtuous person, he will not kill innocent people of his own kind indiscriminately without any interests or grudges.

He asked the rock rats to go to the desert to catch some sand beasts with higher intelligence, and collected the souls of some sand beasts through soul-raising rings.

Afterwards, the soul of the sand beast was refined and injected into the eliminated second-level puppets.

During refining, the conscious memory of resistance and disadvantages is erased, leaving a relatively clean consciousness seedling in the end.

After many experiments, one or two cases were successful.

Lu Changan discovered the flaws and limitations of this kind of refining and infusing spirits.

First, the refining process may make the living soul unable to bear the torture and completely collapse.

The higher the spiritual intelligence, the stronger the resistance.

The second is that after refining and infusing the spirit into the puppet, it still needs to go through a long period of training.

If the training time is long enough, the consciousness and wisdom in the puppet will be higher, its judgment will be more rational, and its fighting skills may exceed those of monks of the same level.

Therefore, the two cases in which Lu Changan successfully injected spirits were dull and had a very weak level of consciousness to fight independently.

"The success of Ada Wan is due to some tricks. His sister, who is in love with him, is willing to cooperate..."

Lu Changan saw the reason.

Ada Wan has tricks up his sleeve, and so does Lu Changan.

The first, second, and fourth lives in the Nine-Seal Monument are all ready-made soul forms, and they have been washed by the power of reincarnation in the Nine-Seal Monument and are extremely pure.

However, no matter how much the soul is refined through spiritual infusion, some of the obsessions from life will remain.

In the following time, Lu Changan tried to guide the shadow of the soul of the first life, refining it and injecting it into the puppet.

The shadow of the soul in the first life lights up very quickly.

Nourished by the spirit of the golden elixir realm, it can be lit up in one day at most.

The previous few attempts ended in failure.

The shadow of the soul of the first life passed away faster after leaving Lu Changan's body.

The process of merging and running in with the puppet was not so smooth, and it collapsed soon after.

Lu Changan understands that the physical body in the previous life is in perfect harmony with this life, and there is no such blessing for other physical carriers.

Seeing this, Lu Changan directly refined the shadow of the soul within his body, compressing and purifying it.

It's like refining a magic weapon, imbuing it with the mark of your own divine consciousness.

The control hub of the puppet carrier is also refined, leaving a mark of divine consciousness.

Finally, the compressed and purified soul shadow turned into a mung bean-sized soul light bead and merged into the second-level puppet carrier.

It worked this time!

The shadow of the soul of the first life is refined and injected into the puppet.

"Huh!"

Lu Changan unexpectedly discovered that the soul-infused second-level turtle puppet was like his flesh and blood clone.

With a thought, the turtle puppet flexibly makes various precise movements.

Continuous backflips, death spins, turtle sumo...

Not only can it be wielded like an arm, Lu Changan's own spiritual consciousness consumption is minimal.

After two months of trying, Lu Changan felt excited.

After compression and refining, the first-generation soul injection is supplied with the spiritual power of the puppet crystals in the puppet. As long as there is no fierce fighting, it can be stored for a long time.

One night.

Lu Changan controlled the first soul-infused puppet in the wilderness, far away.

As a result, this puppet can be controlled by his thoughts like arms within a range of hundreds of miles, just like a remote clone.

Moreover, you can also share the puppet's senses.

"Puppet incarnation!"

Lu Changan was pleasantly surprised, and an idea came to his mind.

The supernatural puppet created by Adamaru does not have the control of a flesh-and-blood arm, nor can it be controlled at such a long distance.

Lu Changan speculated that the target of soul-injection refining was his soul form in his previous life, which was equivalent to another self!

Therefore, only after the soul is possessed by the puppet, it will have the similar effect of "incarnation outside the body".

But there are differences.

Lu Changan's puppet clone has no independent consciousness and needs to be controlled remotely.

The true external incarnation can only be achieved during the stage of spiritual transformation.

This state is also called the distraction period. It can separate part of the consciousness independently without affecting the origin of the soul.

Such incarnations have magical powers and have independent consciousness, and can explore, fight, and perform complex tasks outside.

In the realm below the transformation of gods, it is difficult to cultivate the magical power of transformation.

Because you have to bear the consequences of the splitting of the soul's consciousness, which will damage the soul, affect your lifespan and potential.

Even if we use foreign objects to create the legendary "Second Nascent Soul", we still need to split the consciousness, damage the soul of the original soul, and lose a little of the origin of the soul.

The loss of the soul's origin involves the potential of life and is almost permanently irrecoverable.

This is also why there are very few people who have achieved incarnation in the Nascent Soul stage.

There are very few incarnations that have been cultivated, most of which are castrated versions, with greatly reduced magical powers and many restrictions.

In Lu Changan's fourth life, he had consulted relevant classics and records.

Even in the stage of transformation, there are risks in playing with the transformation.

Once the deity's original form is injured and its strength drops, or if the avatar gets a great opportunity and its strength exceeds that of the original form, there is a risk of turning against the guest.

Such examples have occurred more than once or twice in Tianheng Continent since ancient times.

"Although my puppet clone is far inferior to the clone of the God-Transforming Heavenly Lord, it only incorporates the soul of the first life."

"If it is integrated into the peak of the second life's core formation and the fourth life's Nascent Soul, the control distance may be farther and the strength will be stronger."

Lu Changan couldn't help but envision a scenario:

He himself is hiding in Feng Yuan Kingdom, remotely controlling the powerful puppet possessed by the fourth life, returning to the Wei Dao Alliance and the Liang Kingdom to cultivate immortality, purchasing resources, gathering intelligence, and assassinating enemies.

Of course, this is just a theoretical reverie, and there are many difficulties in practice.

For example, the puppet created must be lifelike enough so that there is no difference in appearance and conversation between it and humans.

The puppet inheritance that Lu Changan received in his fourth life memory was quite satisfactory, without any cutting-edge skills in this specific field.

Adamaru does have some reserves of such skills.

However, it is still easy to see the flaws of the puppet as long as you get close to it, and it can only deceive low-level monks.

"To create a perfect puppet incarnation and walk for me, you must acquire the core puppet skills of the Thousand Machines Sect."

Lu Changan planned to stabilize his position in Feng Yuan Kingdom, advance to the middle stage of Danjie, and then consider this matter.



Lu Changan spent the agreed half year to the fullest.

The current puppet clone simply controls a remote large toy, and its practicality is not as good as that of a rock rat.

Until that day, Yun Ling came to visit and interrupted Lu Changan's research.

This time, Yun Ling came alone. Her brother Yun Hao has been in retreat recently and is preparing to build a foundation.

"Zhenren Xu, grandma asked me to come over."

Yun Ling wore a long pink and white dress, bowed with her crotch folded, and her voice was as sweet as a bell.

Lu Changan looked at the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. Her starry eyes and white teeth, willow-slender waist, delicate snowy skin, and pink lip line all revealed purity and brightness.

The appearance of this girl is very different from Guan Qiaozhi, but the characteristics of the eighteen-year-old girl are similar, and her appearance and temperament are even more outstanding.

"No need to be polite, what do you want from Shopkeeper Yun?"

Lu Changan waved his hand and spoke in an easy-going tone.

Yun Ling visited alone and seemed a little embarrassed when facing Master Jie Dan.

She glanced at the elegant man with clear bright eyes, then lowered her head, not daring to look directly.

"This is the token that grandma gave you."

Yun Ling took out a purple jade pendant and presented it to Lu Changan with a serious expression.

Looking at the delicate hands so close at hand.

Lu Changan looked at her thoughtfully, and the elixir power surged in his hand, and he took the jade pendant into his hand.

With a slight touch of spiritual consciousness, a simple map appeared in the jade pendant, marking a certain location on the Heyuan Oasis.

When Lu Changan felt the jade pendant, Yun Ling's face turned slightly rosy.

The reason why I was nervous when I visited Xu Zhenren this time was because she wanted to test her. This little cleverness seemed to have been discovered by her seniors.

The three previous meetings, the feeling of rapport and cordiality made Yuling feel confused and curious.

In the first transaction in the stall area, Lu Changan let her take advantage, which was a bit strange.

Grandma once warned her that there are no unreasonable benefits in the world, especially those benefits given by men.

Grandma also said a rule: No matter young men, middle-aged men, or old people, they all have an unchanging heart, which is to like young and beautiful women.

Lu Changan's behavior that day inevitably made Yuling wonder whether this senior really had any thoughts about her.

She decided to test it out: if Master Xu touched her hand while receiving the token, he had ulterior motives and was what her brother said: "Old cows eat young grass."

Grandma seems to be a little interested in Xu Zhenren and has no objection to it.

If Xu Zhenren behaves obscenely, even if he gets the token and goes to that dojo, he still won't get permission.

Of course, Yun Ling is willing to sacrifice a little beauty, mainly because she has a good sense of the elegant and handsome Xu Zhenren.

If she was really in her seventies, she would definitely not take action.

The result of testing.

Yun Ling was briefly nervous and surprised at first, and then felt a sense of inexplicable loss.

"Okay, I understand."

Lu Changan nodded and put away the purple jade pendant.

"It's nothing, you can go back."

After glancing at the hesitant Yun Ling, Lu Changan sent her away.

Boom!

Just as the girl's back was about to disappear at the entrance of the courtyard, there was movement in Lu Changan's spiritual pet bag.

Xuan Shui Turtle protested.

It wanted to come out to meet and play with Yun Ling, but Lu Changan did not agree.

"You lazy guy, you want to rebel?"

"You haven't learned even a single shape-shifting technique, and you still want to continue your career?"

Lu Changan reprimanded and complained.

Inside the spiritual pet bag, the Xuan Shui Turtle looked helpless and aggrieved, with bubbles popping out of its mouth.

Xuan Shui Turtle has a lazy character and has no enterprising spirit.

Unlike the Earth Rock Rat, who studied diligently and studied at the Beast Control Zhou Family, he learned the "Shape Changing Technique" very early, including some monster fighting skills and secret techniques.

The inheritance of beast control in the trophies of the real Yellow Wolf and the secret knowledge of pet training do not require Lu Changan's supervision. The Earth Rock Rat trains itself.



Lu Changan flew out of Fang City, followed the location marked on the jade pendant, and flew to a mountain forest area on the northwest side of the oasis.

Before he could settle down, purple crystal patterns appeared on the jade pendant in his hand.

Buzz!

Near the mountain forest, a transparent white light flashed across the sky.

Suddenly, an antique manor covering an area of ​​dozens of acres came into Lu Changan's sight.

The third-order phantom formation that envelopes this place distorts the senses of consciousness.

He even used Xumi magic to make the manor covering dozens of acres actually occupy several acres in the Heyuan oasis.

"A small nook, there is a hidden world."

Lu Changan looked at the scenery in the manor. On the outside, there was a garden of herbs and spiritual trees, which was colorful. Inside, there were mountains and water, ponds, pavilions, pavilions, and winding paths.

It is a quiet and elegant private dojo.

The small spiritual veins in it emit spiritual pressure that can reach the third level, which is obviously a result of acquired cultivation.

"Zhenren Xu, Duan has been waiting at Shanshui Manor for a long time."

In front of the mansion with a water view of the manor, an elderly man in a toga, about fifty years old and with a stout figure, sat cross-legged.

The man smiled loudly and waved his wide sleeves.

The formation of Shanshui Manor opened a void door and invited Lu Changan to enter.

Judging from the subtle fluctuations in elixir power, this mysterious old man with the surname Duan is at least a true elixir cultivator, and not even in the early stages of elixir formation.

If it were an ordinary fake elixir master, he might not dare to go in rashly.

If you don't dare to go in and act coy, you will be looked down upon by the other party, and then the recommendation may be abandoned.

"Huh? It turns out to be this grandson!"

Lu Changan took a quick look and narrowed his eyes. Although the appearance of the long-robed elder had been adjusted, the aura of mana could not be faked.

It's not that he was cursing in his heart.

This elder with the surname "Duan" who cultivated alchemy was the grandson of the fourth generation.

"I've kept Duan Lao waiting for a long time."

Lu Changan hesitated for a moment and looked around. This place was not an isolated dojo.

He took a deep breath and flew into Shanshui Manor.

Seeing Lu Changan's cautious expression, the elder Duan stroked his beard and smiled with slight approval.

Half a year ago, he investigated Zhenren Xu's origins, and it was rumored that he had been robbed and killed in Scorpion Desert City.

The next time, I will appear in the Heyuan Oasis in poverty.

"Master Xu, please sit down. If you have any questions, you can ask."

Duan Lao's sleeves and robe were lifted slightly, turning into a futon.

In front of Shuixie Mansion, the two of them sat facing each other.

"The third-level spiritual veins here seem to have been successfully cultivated not long ago. I don't know how many real people can be allowed to practice."

Lu Changan asked questions of concern.

"A small third-level spiritual pulse dojo is suitable for a true alchemy monk, plus some junior servants who are building foundations and refining qi. There is no pressure."

"It would be a bit reluctant to let two true elixir cultivators practice at the same time. But under this spiritual vein dojo, there is also a third-level spirit gathering array. If you invest in spiritual stones for a long time and let two or three true elixir cultivators practice at the same time, there will be no problem.

big."

Duanlao answered patiently.

Lu Changan nodded, generally small third-level spiritual veins tend to be personal dojos and can only accommodate one or two monks of the same level for training.

"Most of the time, Duan is not at the manor monastery, but traveling to various places for business trips.

"If Master Xu is willing, I will leave this place to you to guard and take care of the spiritual trees and herbs. Master Xu will help refine some spiritual elixirs from time to time and train the alchemy apprentices in return."

"Lao Duan, can you rest assured that Mr. Xu will guard this place?"

Lu Changan said curiously.

In the Heyuan Oasis, the small third-level dojo is also a scarce strategic resource.

If other forces annex it, it can be used to win over the true elixir for worship.

If you have a skilled formation pulse master, you can even migrate to your own third-level spiritual veins and merge them to become stronger.

A fake elixir master guarding the newly cultivated small third-level dojo, and also taking care of the spiritual trees and herbs, does not sound very reliable.
