Inside the cave.

Shen Lian sat cross-legged on a cushion woven from spiritual herbs. His mind was as calm as a sleeping old turtle. He ignored the passage of time and devoted himself wholeheartedly to receiving the inheritance.

In the sea of ​​divine consciousness, the front of the little soul figure was covered by densely packed words.

"Spirit Puppet Attachment Technique!"

"1.33 billion words..."

His spiritual sense sensed the densely packed words and he couldn't help scratching his head. This was a secret technique that was no worse than the Wanling Immortal Puppet Technique that was inherited before.

The Immortal Puppet Technique focuses on the secondary soul of the original body, while this secret technique focuses on attaching divine thoughts to the refined puppet to achieve a level of unity between the mind and the cultivator.

Countless words rushed towards the little man in the divine consciousness, and Shen Lian was a little overwhelmed.

As we all know, some traveling monks in the world of immortal cultivation like to write notes, and the more words they have, the worse their notes sound.

But this secret technique is not like that, it is too detailed, which shows that the predecessor who created this method was a good person.

In this way, Shen Lian carefully read the Spirit Puppet Attachment Technique, and compared it with the previous Wanling Fairy Puppet Technique.

Putting these two secret techniques together is a perfect match that complements each other.

In this way, he studied motionlessly, and only woke up from his intoxication after a whole month.

The reason why this secret method was only passed down at the fourth level is because the starting point is too high. The fourth level is just the starting point, and many fifth-level and sixth-level creatures are its main materials.

Among them, it details the various magical races in the world of immortal cultivation, and how, after being refined into puppets, the attached souls imitate the fluctuations of their race's aura.

Each one corresponds to a unique coordination method.

"If you want to fully understand this secret technique, you need to practice more."

Shen Lian sighed. Even though he had a means of inheritance that was like an epiphany, the sophistication of the secret technique still could not be understood just by looking at it.

It took him more than two months to review the puppet knowledge that had been passed down from beginning to end.

…

"My Five Elements Spirit Puppet also needs to improve its quality. It's a bit behind at the moment."

Inside the cave, Shen Lian took out the five elements spiritual object he had obtained from Zi Yang before.

The quality of these five spiritual objects is very high, and it doesn’t take much to upgrade the Five Elements Spirit Puppet.

A jade box surrounded by thick water vapor was opened, and a black, crystal-clear spirit bead appeared.

You can hear the sound of a tsunami inside this bead, and it exudes a strong feminine scent. I don't know where Old Monster Ziyang got it from.

After Shen Lian stretched out his hand and grabbed the spirit pearl, thick water waves enveloped him. The water seemed warm, but it felt like it was isolating and trapping him inside.

Five-colored spiritual light flickered in his palms, and the three combined magical powers gathered in his palms, instantly suppressing the water vapor in the spirit pearl.

Without the strength of Nascent Soul level, it is really not easy to refine the fourth-order spiritual objects.

Under the cover of the five elements magic power, Shen Lian drew out a stream of water from the black bead and gathered into his body.

During this process, he did not continue to extract the water vapor, but took out the wood element spirit object again and extracted a trace of it as well.

In this way, he extracted a little bit of each of the five spiritual objects one by one and then gathered them into his body.

After the five energies gather in the body, they are quickly assimilated by the five elements circulation force in the body.

For every one he absorbed, Shen Lian would extract.

Although the speed is a bit slow, it is stable.

After the fourth-level spiritual objects gathered in the body, they gathered into the Five Elements Spirit Puppet, and the spirit puppet's aura began to grow.

…

Half a year later.

Shen Lian finished his work, resealed the five jade boxes in front of him and put them away. A colorful light flashed on his body, and he transformed into a spirit that looked exactly like him in front of him.

The spirit's body was colorful and gave off an extremely mellow aura.

With the nourishment of the fourth-level spiritual creature, the strength of the spirit puppet has also increased to a level comparable to the third-level great perfection.

"point!"

In a flash, five colors burst out, and the spirit puppet was divided into five. Each breath was just one step away from the great perfection of the golden elixir.

Seeing this, Shen Lian was a little dissatisfied and took out five spiritual objects again.

When the five spirit puppet auras of different colors in front of him had all reached the perfect third-level mellow aura, he stopped again.

The five spirits turned into streams of light and gathered together again.

“Buzz!”

At this moment, the united spirit body flashed with spiritual light, and its aura rapidly increased.

Seeing this, Shen Lian was so frightened that he quickly set up two more formations to block the aura.

Fortunately, the vision did not happen.

The aura of the reunited spirit body reached a level that surpassed the perfection of the Golden Elixir, but did not completely touch the critical level of the Nascent Soul.

He remembered that when he was on his way out of the Wanxing Sea for the first time, he passed by the Siren Island Chain and met a monk in white. With his sword, he suppressed dozens of Jindan Demon Kings on the entire Siren Island and dared not act presumptuously.

The aura of that man back then made Shen Lian unforgettable.

And now, the aura emitted by his natal spirit puppet has surpassed that of the white-robed monk back then.

It’s a pity that he hasn’t seen that monk again for so many years, and he wants to repay him.

The spirit puppet's aura reached the peak below the fourth level. Shen Lian re-refined the secret method of evolving the second soul, allowing the second soul's control power after entering the spirit puppet to reach eighty thousand feet.

After finishing all this, more than a year has passed.

Inside the cave, Shen Lian rubbed his hands. In front of him was a coffin that exuded demonic aura.

The aura that made him tremble back then is no longer a thing now.

When the coffin was pushed open, the scarred and bruised figure of the Meishan old demon was revealed.

After pulling the body of the Meishan Old Demon out of the coffin and standing him up, Shen Lian began to carefully examine the wounds on his body.

The old demon Lianzhen had been very ruthless back then. Meishan had been dead for so many years, and there was still a lot of poison left in his body. He had to refine him into a puppet first, and he needed to clean out the poison from his body.

After laying out the body of the Meishan Demon, Shen Lian stripped it naked first, then took a look at the ox. Guess what, it was quite big.

The materials used for the puppet should be intact, so as to ensure that the puppet can exert its maximum power. Missing parts can often easily become the puppet's fatal weakness.

The magic power flowed into the body of the Meishan old demon through Shen Lian's palm. A rustling sound came from the lifeless body of the old demon, which made Shen Lian frown.

The old demon Lian Zhen was just a golden elixir. Although he used various means to store the corpse of his Nascent Soul, it was still a little bit lacking.

The blood in the Meishan Demon's body had dried up, and his flesh and blood had shriveled up. The wounds on his body had festered, and there were toxins in his body.

It’s amazing.

Even Brother Niu is crimson purple.

Shen Lian slowly withdrew his hand. This corpse was too shriveled. Once it was successfully refined, it would look like a puppet at first glance. How could he pretend then?

Think of a way! Licking the corner of his mouth, he immersed himself again in the vast ocean of puppet inheritance and began to dig.

This body has already practiced magic, and the demonic energy in it cannot be washed away. Therefore, Shen Lian did not expect it to be a good person. It would cause trouble as soon as it went out.

It’s okay for a demon cultivator to kill a demon cultivator.

…

Two months later.

In the spacious cave, various auras were lingering, including blood, poison, and demonic energy. Several large cauldrons were bubbling. Erwan kept shuttling under the cauldrons to control the flames, while Sanqian was observing the situation inside the cauldrons and continuously adding water.

As for the Meishan Old Demon, he was squatting in a large cauldron of pale green poison, being stewed in a raging fire.

The poisonous bruises on his body had spread all over his body, and the old demon looked green and gray.

Since there was no way to guarantee that he could create the original old demon, Shen Lian planned to make it into a comprehensive puppet that combined poison gas, demonic energy, blood energy, and ghost energy.

It is normal for a monk who practices poison and ghost to have some sores and a few small insects crawling on his body.

At the beginning, the old demon Lianzhen left behind three jars of sealed blood water, which have now been used up. Shen Lian used it all in one breath to bathe Meishan.

His hands passed through the body of the Meishan Old Demon like a butterfly flying through flowers, and the golden thread quickly sutured the wound from the inside. As for the external wound, it was fine if it rotted away. Shen Lian even deliberately induced some rotten meat to grow, but it was a bit too late to find the rot worms now, otherwise he would have had to match it.

After the transformation, Meishan is guaranteed to come back to life, but one has to doubt whether this is really him.

…

Two months later.

Meishan came out of the big cauldron with his bare hands being faced face to face by the secondary soul. Wisps of mysterious divine power emerged from the secondary soul and drilled into Meishan's body through the holes.

The power of divine thoughts began to take shape in its body. Different from living creatures that possessed a sea of ​​divine thoughts, the law of the spirit puppet's possession of a spirit was to organize the divine thoughts into a divine thought sequence that covered every corner of the puppet.

The advantage of having divine consciousness everywhere is that you can perfectly control the puppets, making them look vivid and lifelike, like real living beings.

It's this process of possessing a spirit that is too troublesome.

The main reason why Shen Lian controlled the secondary soul to take the last step was to add this step.

He controls the secondary soul, and the secondary soul controls the puppet. Although there is a transfer in the middle, because of the two secret techniques of Wanlingxian Puppetry and Spirit Puppet Attachment, there will be no disconnection in the transfer process.

On the contrary, it allows him to have a wider range of control.

You can directly control the puppet's actions within a radius of a thousand miles. If you use the silk condensation method, the range of control can be further increased.

Once there is a problem, the puppet will be abandoned directly and Shen Lian will slip away.

A trace of divine power turned into a thread and drilled into the body of the Meishan old demon. As time passed, the old demon's body trembled slightly, as if it felt something foreign had drilled into it.

This process is boring and mentally taxing.

Shen Lian was not in a hurry. The more carefully he worked now, the greater the power would be when the time came.

Since he decided to let the puppet follow the path of evil, he also prepared two treasures for it. One was the Meishan Mirror, the original life-saving magic weapon of the old demon Meishan, and the other was the Zunhun Banner.

The Meishan Mirror is similar to a small shield. After Shen Lian inspected it, he found that its quality was average. When Meishan was alive, this mirror must have had some spirituality.

But now it has lost all its spirituality and some cracks have appeared inside.

After some renovation, it can be used just fine.

With the help of the spirit possession technique, and the appearance of being surrounded by a rotten and poisonous aura, others would think twice even if they wanted to get close to investigate.

…

Gushan mountain range.

"You don't have to leave, come on."

A charming voice sounded, and a rolling blood demon aura emerged from the mountains and fields. On a ten-foot-long spiritual boat, the leader, a female cultivator with long legs in light gauze and bright red runes on her calves, went deep into the valley.

Behind her were a dozen Demon Sect monks wearing uniform robes.

As for the one they were chasing, it was a ninth-level Foundation Establishment cultivator with crooked hair. His body was covered with black things that looked like blood snakes, which were constantly biting their flesh.

"Senior Sister, we still have to rush to the next small town. We can't waste too much time."

On the flying boat, a disciple reminded the female cultivator in the black skirt.

"That's long-winded."

The female cultivator snorted coldly, "Didn't you see how good-looking the young male cultivator in front of you is? Look at you all, you are so gloomy and not sunny at all. It's not my fault that I didn't care about you in the past. I have to soak for three days to get rid of the odor after playing with you for one night."

…

"Evil cultivator, I will never let you succeed even if I die."

"It's okay. I don't mind dying."

On the flying boat, the female cultivator made a magic gesture with both hands, and a series of blood lights flew out from her blood-red hair, piercing through the air and hitting the back of the fleeing male cultivator, making countless small blood-red holes.

"Go get it for me, while it's still warm. I want..."

After leaving behind a few words, the female cultivator was about to enter the small dock in the middle of the spirit boat, but suddenly her expression froze.

The end of the mountains.

The rolling evil energy was like huge waves, submerging mountain tops one after another, mixed with the strong howling of ghosts and wolves.

Within the evil aura, there were wisps of pale green air that corroded all the grass and trees.

"Which ancestor is it?"

Seeing this scene, the Demon Sect monks on the flying boat were so shocked that they were speechless.

It's so horrible.

Even the sect's Jindan elders do not have this kind of aura.

It’s the Nascent Soul Demon!

No, it’s the ancestor.

The demonic energy, like a waterfall, was just at the horizon, but in the blink of an eye it had rolled to the front. The terrifying pressure made their hearts tremble.

Plop! Plop! The flying boat was shaken by the energy of the demonic energy, and the monks on the flying boat fell to their knees one by one.

"The disciples of the Hidden Blood Sect pay their respects to the ancestor."

Such demonic energy must belong to a giant of the devil.

As a fellow demon cultivator, just kneel down and kowtow.

Crash! The demonic energy rolled up and enveloped the kneeling demon cultivator in the blink of an eye. A scream mixed with a crackling sound rang out.

Afterwards, the swaying flying boat stabilized again, leaving only a figure wrapped in a black robe, with dirty blood seeping from the chest and emitting a rotten smell.

The wide robe shook lightly, and the few wisps of soul smoke rising from the blood mist were shattered into nothingness, and the remaining blood energy was sucked into the body from all directions.

The figure turned his head slightly, revealing a dark face.

With bared teeth and a ferocious look on his face, he looked like an old devil as soon as he opened his mouth.

“Hehehe!”

…

“Hehehe!”

Eight hundred miles away, in a small cave.

The secondary soul also grinned.

One thousand five hundred miles away.

“Hehehe.”

Shen Lian also let out a strange cry.

"This demon Meishan."

"I came here just to eat demons."
