Chapter 167: Puppets and Peach Gum

Chen Yu had long wanted to go outside the market town, not only to Danhua Island, but also to the depths of Leiyangze.

The only one in the swamp whose strength is unknown is the Dragon King in the Jindan stage.

Perhaps there are still some old monsters hiding here, but the probability is not as high as that Chen Yu’s courtyard will be discovered by some powerful person who happens to pass by here.

It seems that without realizing it, I have become this so-called "old monster"?

Chen Yu sat under the peach tree, flipping through a thick book.

The content inside was very simple and he had no use for Jianmu at all.

Mechanical engineering is a branch of weapon refining, and its most common application is in making traps.

It is said that a monk who had great cultivation during his lifetime would have his body preserved after death, and a tomb full of dangers would be arranged before he passed away to prevent anyone from disturbing his peace.

This book on mechanical engineering is one of the legacy of the Qingxuan Sect, but it is not very precious. Disciples in the Qi Refining Stage are also qualified to practice it.

The most powerful mechanism recorded in it is enough to ambush and kill a cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining, and can be considered a top-grade one.

Chen Yu finished reading a book called "Detailed Explanation of Mechanisms" which had more than 200 pages in just two hours, and at the same time he was familiar with all the contents.

It was just a first-grade superior product, which could not satisfy his needs.

As a person of Guidao, how can I not have multiple vests?

Chen Yu came under Jianmu. With his experience in formation and refining, it was not difficult for him to deduce it to the third level.

His goal is to master the puppetry techniques in these mechanisms, and if he develops them to a higher level, there may be unexpected results.

A first-grade, top-quality puppet, except for the lack of a living breath, is no less capable than a human cultivator in other aspects.

They are proficient in everything from housework to housework, and some combat puppets even have strength comparable to that of a late Qi Refining cultivator.

It’s just that the cost-effectiveness is not high, and no one has been interested in developing it over the years.

The materials used to refine a first-grade top-quality puppet are enough to refine more than ten magical instruments of the same grade.

A large amount of spirit stones would be consumed to be used in battle, and if any damage occurred accidentally, it would take countless efforts to make up for it.

If it was only used to serve tea and pour water, I'm afraid even the Jindan Patriarch would not be so extravagant.

Chen Yu didn't need to worry about the issue of resources. He started refining immediately after deducing it.

The third-level spirit puppet has the characteristics of both magic weapons and formations. Strictly speaking, it is a super-large magic weapon with complete functions.

The limbs, torso, and facial features must be connected by smooth array patterns.

Its core is a formation that controls the entire body, which requires a part of Chen Yu's consciousness to reside in it.

Through this core formation, one can indirectly control other formations, but its flexibility is slightly lower than one's own.

But one thing cannot be ignored, that is, the person who discovered the secret of the spirit puppet cannot use the spiritual consciousness in it to find Chen Yu's existence, otherwise he might as well travel to the outside world in his real body.

Inspired by the soul imprint on the monster, Chen Yu used the spirit bead as a medium to set a restriction on the spirit puppet.

Once the puppet is more than a million miles away from him, the consciousness within it can return with the help of the spirit bead.

The moment a monk searches his soul, it will explode directly, dealing a heavy blow to the monk.

Unfortunately, this method cannot be used on magic weapons. Chen Yu is still hoping that it will grow to its full potential, but it cannot become an accessory to the spirit bead.

The spirit puppet uses spirit stones for energy, consuming about three spirit stones every day, which is less than a first-level puppet.

If you are in a combat state, the amount of spirit stones consumed is enormous.

If necessary, you can also directly use the spiritual energy in the materials to reveal the combat power of the Golden Core Stage.

The cost is quite high, and Chen Yu would not do this unless it is absolutely necessary.

Generally speaking, the strength of a puppet cannot exceed that of the creator himself.

Chen Yu could break this limitation with the help of Jianmu and high-level spiritual materials, but it was completely unnecessary.

The strength of a lower-grade third-order spirit puppet is comparable to that of an ordinary Jindan-stage spirit puppet, and it is even slightly better in physique.

The main body of the puppet was roughly completed, but how to shape its appearance made Chen Yu puzzled.

Bones and tendons can be constructed with red fruit tree trunks and spirit gold, and hair can be simulated with spider silk and silkworm silk.

The only problem was the texture of the skin. He tried many different materials but was not satisfied with any of them.

The perception of cultivators is so sharp, could they use the special cultivation techniques to cover it up?

Regarding the probability of success of this trip, Chen Yu decided to pursue perfection.

The peach trees in the space bear fruit in turn, and so far they have only been there for more than three hundred years.

But the spiritual energy is rich, comparable to that of a second-level low-grade spiritual plant. The tree crown is several feet in diameter, and the trunk is as thick as a man's embrace.

There are no four seasons in this space, and the trees grow very vigorously. Chen Yu can see that there are a lot of gelatinous substances of various sizes secreted from the branches.

This is the so-called peach gum. It has a high concentration of spiritual energy and is considered a rare treasure among first-grade high-quality spiritual objects.

In the past, he didn't care about the uses of peach gum. Maybe it could be used to refine pills, but it had no effect on him, so he naturally didn't collect it specifically.

If I pick some now, it will be just enough for one spirit puppet.

Peach gum is soft or hard due to different secretion times, and is transparent with a light yellow color.

When you touch it gently, you will feel a slightly cool and warm feeling.

The seemingly weak mana flame roasts the peach gum to different degrees with very strict force.

The peach gum melted into liquid, and Chen Yu poured it on the skeleton made of spiritual materials, and then used his spiritual sense to mold it into shape.

Various concealing formations are already available, including one that imitates bone age and can present different ages in the eyes of cultivators.

Some create the illusion of internal organs and blood flow, making them perfectly like real people.

When it came to shaping the face, Chen Yu shaped it into a very ordinary young man.

Since ancient times, beautiful women have been the cause of trouble, and the same goes for handsome men.

Having an overly outstanding appearance is not a good thing for a monk, as it often brings unnecessary hidden dangers.

Chen Yu's spiritual consciousness circulates spiritual energy within the spirit puppet and can also change the color of its "skin".

Monks can also have rich expressions of joy, anger, sorrow and happiness.

Presumably, cultivators at the foundation-building stage and below would not be able to detect that this is a lifeless spirit puppet.

Chen Yu tried to separate about one thousandth of his spiritual consciousness, which was just enough to control the core formation with ease.

This is just two minds doing two things at the same time, there is no other independent thinking.

The feeling of another perspective was strange, but not surprising to Chen Yu.

Even without support, he can use his spiritual sense to observe himself in the outside world.

The spirit puppet has been refined, and all that’s missing is a storage bag.

The captive Soul-Eating Rats multiplied to more than twenty. Chen Yu caught a few of them, took their fur, and made a first-grade, top-quality storage bag.

It contains three hundred spirit stones, which is enough to last for three months even without replenishment.

Chen Yu has always valued peace, he can watch the fun, but don't think of getting involved. So it is estimated that not too many spirit stones will be used, and they can be collected outside.

After making a set of clothes out of silk and putting them on, this spiritual puppet with hidden secrets can appear in Leiyangze.

The spirit puppet does not look anything like Chen Yu. Its serial number is Jiayi, and its external name is Chen Zhou.
