Chapter 255 The Puppeteer



After gossiping with Zhao Youcai about the power struggle at the top of the Heavenly Palace and Divine Court, Yang Cheng said, "Boss Zhao, what I got here is quite a lot, and I'm afraid you might not be able to fit it all in here."

Zhao Youcai glanced at the empty space in front of him and asked in confusion, "This is so big, how can you not fit everything? Come with me."

As he spoke, Zhao Youcai led Yang Cheng to the very back of his space, where a large warehouse, hundreds of meters in size, was piled with all sorts of scrap materials.

"Is this enough?"

Yang Cheng nodded and said, "That's enough."

As he spoke, Yang Cheng directly unleashed the giant bone hammer, startling Zhao Youcai.

After circling the giant bone hammer for a long time, Zhao Youcai clicked his tongue and sighed, "This thing is way too big, it's a bit difficult to handle."

Its material is quite sturdy, forged from white bones refined with yin energy.

However, this thing doesn't have any special abilities; besides being heavy and sturdy, it doesn't have any other special characteristics.

And why are there so many holes on the hammer? It also looks worn.

In short, it's hard to find a suitable buyer for this item. You can keep it with me for now, and if someone wants it, I'll help you sell it.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zhao. I have a few more things here."

As he spoke, Yang Cheng took out Lu Ban's secret techniques, the Mount Tai talisman, and the Soul-Binding Elixir.

The two items that Yang Cheng was rewarded with in this main quest were both pretty good, but unfortunately, Yang Cheng couldn't use either of them.

Among them, the Mount Tai Spirit Talisman is a spirit talisman personally written by the Lord of Mount Tai. It can be used to assist in cultivation, calm the mind and spirit, and is a supreme treasure of the immortals.

Unfortunately, Yang Cheng wasn't the type of reincarnator who practiced asceticism. His cultivation was all accumulated through battles and fights, so this thing was useless to him.

Conversely, Cui Laodao and Han Yu found this item very useful.

As for the Soul-Entangling Elixir, it is a high-level elixir, refined from extremely powerful vengeful spirits.

Once ingested, the spirit will be elevated to the same level as that vengeful spirit, and it will also have the effect of defending against attacks from the spirit attributes of yin ghosts.

It sounds powerful, but it has a fatal side effect.

That is, after taking the Soul-Entangling Elixir, one's soul strength will be permanently fixed at that level and will never be able to improve further.

Yang Cheng had used the Divine Travel technique to enhance his mental strength, and his spiritual power was actually quite high, so there was no need for him to take such a one-time use item.

Reincarnators like Jiang Kai and Lei Gong, who don't intend to pursue the path of the divine soul, can use it.

Zhao Youcai looked at them repeatedly and exclaimed, "Not bad! The items you've brought this time are all quite powerful. They're worth at least ten thousand reincarnation points in total."

The only problem is that Lu Ban's secret techniques are difficult to use. Although the secret methods recorded in them are powerful and evil, each one has terrible side effects.

Those reincarnators with even a little background value their lives and have no need to risk their lives with such dangerous items. So, like the giant bone hammer, they temporarily consigned it to me.

What are you planning to exchange this time?

Yang Cheng said, "This time I'm not replacing anything, but rather I want to repair the weapons."

As he spoke, Yang Cheng took out his Soul-Severing Spear and Imperial Guard Saber.

"This knife contains the soul of the Blood Devouring Blade. I wonder if it can be integrated into this gun."

Zhao Youcai stroked his chin and said, "This kind of thing is a bit difficult for me, after all, I'm not a professional in this field."

However, I do know someone whose skill in weapon crafting is quite remarkable; in fact, he could be considered one of the top experts in the entire cycle of reincarnation.

"who?"

"The Grandmaster of Weapon Forging of the Divine Court, the Puppet Master, the representative of the Five Dou Realm!"

Zhao Youcai said, "Yanshi isn't here. We need to go to Yingzhou, which isn't far from here."

Yang Cheng originally thought that with Zhao Youcai's abilities, he would definitely be able to open a spatial portal and travel directly there.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai drove out in a Santana that looked like it had been used more than eight times, and headed straight for the highway.

"Hey Mr. Zhao, you're quite wealthy. Aside from the Realm Lords, there aren't many Reincarnators richer than you, right? Do you really need to be so frugal?"

Zhao Youcai curled his lips and said, "Every grain is hard-earned. Every point of reincarnation is earned through my hard work. How could I bear to spend it like that?"

I'm not some sucker who would do something as wasteful as exchanging reincarnation points for money; of course, I'll save money wherever I can.

Besides, I've had this car for several years, and I'm reluctant to sell it. It only uses 6 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers, which is very economical.

"It saves on gasoline but not on engine oil, right? This thing is a hybrid, it's a mix of gasoline and engine oil."

Yang Cheng muttered to himself, "I should have borrowed a car from Boss Sun."

Zhao Youcai's car reeked of foot odor; heaven knows what he'd been doing there.

Three hours later, Zhao Youcai led Yang Cheng off the highway and arrived at a villa in the suburbs of Yingzhou.

The villa was antique and elegant, and the owner seemed to have very good taste.

Standing at the villa entrance, Zhao Youcai knocked on the door. The door opened, but instead of a person, a puppet made entirely of wood and metal emerged, its two large, white jade eyes glaring out.

"The owner is not here. Please leave a message."

The puppet said in a dry, monotonous voice.

Zhao Youcai said, "Alright, stop pretending. We're all on the same side, why are you playing the empty city ploy?"

This is one of my younger brothers. He wants you to modify a weapon. You'll definitely get paid.

If you don't take this order, I won't bother recommending any more to you in the future.

The puppet's eyes instantly became lively, and black pores appeared in the center of its white jade eyes.
