It turns out that there are many ways to refine puppets, but most of them are very low-level and can only refine puppets that are below the level of distraction. Generally speaking, puppets that are distracted or above are very difficult to refine. Not only does it consume a lot of precious materials, but the refined puppet is only superficial. It has great power but not much intelligence. It can be easily killed in battle, which is simply not worth the gain.
However, it is said that in the past, there was a refining method passed down from the fairy world, which could make a very powerful five-element puppet. The biggest characteristics of this kind of puppet are three. One is its growability, which means that it can be placed in the five elements. Where there is abundant spiritual energy, they can grow automatically, become stronger and stronger, and even advance.
The other one is Lingzhi. This kind of puppet is very smart. When fighting, it can cooperate with each other, use formations, and even cast some simple but very practical auxiliary spells.
The last feature is infinite resurrection. It is said that as long as the core gem is not destroyed and there is enough corresponding spiritual energy, this kind of puppet can automatically repair and fully recover without losing any combat effectiveness.
With these three powerful characteristics, this method of refining puppets is naturally very popular.
It's just that although this method is powerful and abnormal, the requirements are also very high. First of all, the caster must be an immortal, at least a Seven Tribulations Loose Immortal. Secondly, the required materials are also relatively precious. Even to refine the lowest-level Nascent Soul stage puppets, very high-end materials must be used. Those materials can even be used to create or upgrade spiritual treasures.
With such harsh conditions, this method of refining puppets naturally did not spread widely. Therefore, it eventually disappeared without a trace, and only those super masters above Mahayana would hear about it.
But Song Zhong never expected that he would encounter such a puppet here.
But think about it, this is normal. Wutu Shenjun has extraordinary cultivation and is a scholar of heaven. It is not surprising that he knows the refining method of this kind of puppet. The extremely rich Wutu attribute spiritual energy here and the large amount of Wutu attribute materials also determine that this kind of puppets can be manufactured in large quantities here. And after the puppet is created, even if it is a Nascent Soul level, after so many years of cultivating Wutu spiritual energy, it may become a distracted or even higher existence.
As for which level it will become, it depends on the aura concentration of its location, as well as the materials and refining techniques of its gemstone core. With different materials and different refining techniques, the refining puppets will grow at different speeds, or even hugely different. For example, in this temple, after so many years, the puppets on the first level have only grown to the middle stage of distraction, while the three puppets on the third level have grown to the late stage of virtual refining. This is the difference between them.
For manufacturers, this kind of puppet refining problem is indeed a big trouble. But for an outsider like Song Zhong, this is an extremely precious treasure.
Because the current Lord Wutu has long since left this place and ascended to the fairy world, the puppets here have completely become ownerless things, so the gems that control them do not have anyone's divine mark on them. The biggest feature of this kind of puppet is that all the control mechanisms are on that gem. In other words, this gem is now empty. As long as Song Zhong can get it and insert his own divine mark, he can completely control it.
Of the three puppets in the late stage of virtual refining, who is the undeserved treasure? Moreover, there are hundreds of other puppets in this hall. Although their strength is a little lower, they are still puppets above distraction, and they can also fight together. They can definitely be called a powerful warrior. Stronger. It would be strange if Song Zhong couldn't be excited and crazy!
Now that he has discovered the weakness of the puppet, how can Song Zhong still be polite? He was like a pervert who saw a beautiful woman, drooling and rushed over. He first chopped the puppet into pieces with the Mountain Breaking Axe, and then immediately reached out and snatched the white gem that was still glowing. Without giving Huang Guang a chance to repair it, he stamped his divine consciousness mark on it.
Then, under the divine light of the hall, the puppet who already belonged to Song Zhong stood up intact again, but this time, it no longer hated Song Zhong, but stood respectfully behind Song Zhong.
Looking at the majestic new follower, Song Zhong couldn't help but laugh wildly with pride, and then worked harder.
In a short time, the three puppets became Song Zhong's pets. As a price, Song Zhong only gave up one-third of his mana, which was used to activate the Divine Axe.
After Song Zhong got the three big puppets, the gold-devouring beast Xiao Huzi didn't know what was going on, so he still bit them relentlessly. Song Zhong had to drink it to avoid killing each other.
Although Xiao Huzi stopped his offensive due to Song Zhong's order, he still stared at the three big guys warily, wondering why they suddenly became his own.
Song Zhong didn't have time to chat with this guy. Since he had such a good opportunity, he would naturally take advantage of it.
As a result, Song Zhong commanded the three puppets, summoned more than 200 Void Refining-level flower demons who could fight from the natal space, and walked to the second floor together.
The eighteen puppets in the early stage of refining the void on the second level also have a lot of fighting power, and Song Zhong has no intention of giving up. When he came down with a large force, the eighteen puppets also appeared again.
There was no surprise or fear in their simple heads, so no matter how powerful Song Zhong's lineup was this time, they still gathered together to charge forward. Their several-foot-tall bodies, combined with the momentum of running wildly together, really formed a boundless murderous aura.
This time, Song Zhong would not choose to escape again. He directly ordered the three puppets and the gold-devouring beast Xiao Huzi to go up and confront the eighteen puppets head-on, while the others attacked from a distance from behind.
Soon, the battle between the two sides started. The first ones to take action were the flower demons. Under Song Zhong, a wealthy man, they naturally have spiritual treasures in hand. At this time, they showed off their power together, but saw countless dozens of powerful rays of light flying out instantly, either flying swords, divine thunder, or mountains, Waves, various spells, and sword energy formed a large screen of light, hitting him head and face.
After being hit by so many large-scale attacks, the armor on the puppet's appearance was shattered, and its figure became shaky, and it no longer had the terrifying impact. However, as they were injured, that damn yellow light appeared again, allowing their broken places to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye. Obviously, there is a special formation in this hall responsible for emitting yellow light, with the purpose of speeding up their recovery.
Song Zhong didn't want to get into a hard fight, so he didn't give them a chance to fully recover, so he rushed over with three puppets and Xiao Huzi. The four of them were responsible for crushing the broken puppets, while Song Zhong was responsible for snatching the gems. And enter your own spiritual mark.
With the help of absolute force, Song Zhong did not spend much time subduing all eighteen puppets. However, because he did not activate the Godly Axe, he did not consume much mana.
After easily taking down the eighteen puppets, Song Zhong, who was greedy, set his sights on the distracted puppets below. Even though the individual combat effectiveness of a distracting puppet is no longer in Song Zhong’s eyes, he can’t hold it against too many? There are hundreds of distracted monks in formation, which is still a terrifying force.
Therefore, Song Zhong did not dislike them and immediately led a large force to kill them. Although there were more opponents this time, Song Zhong also had eighteen more puppets to help him, and his combat effectiveness soared again.
The following process can only be described in one word, that is overwhelming! Song Zhong has a total of forty or fifty masters at the Void Refining level on his side, so he can easily deal with a group of distraction-level puppets. Before the formation on the opposite side could be completed, Song Zhong directly asked the flower demons to use the spirit treasures in their hands to smash a large number of puppets, completely destroying their formation.
What followed was a one-sided massacre. Dozens of masters at the Void Refining level were like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep. In the blink of an eye, they beat the puppets to pieces, leaving limbs and broken arms everywhere!
Although the yellow divine light was always shining, in front of these powerful guys, those poor puppets didn't even have a chance to be completely repaired. Only half of it has been repaired, and it will be shattered again.
In this case, Song Zhong's work became extremely simple, as long as he kept finding gems and inserting the mark of divine consciousness.
However, although this job is simple, it is not that easy. After all, the gems are too small, only as big as a walnut, and are also mixed in loess of similar colors, making them difficult to search. Therefore, the entire process of subduing the puppets is actually It lasted for more than two hours before it ended. During this period, some of those puppets were even broken hundreds of times, but despite this, they kept repairing until the last moment, which shows how powerful this kind of puppet is.
…
After cleaning up all the puppets in this temple, Song Zhong was a little tired. In order to cope with the next battle, he entered the natal space and sat cross-legged to meditate under the protection of a large group of younger brothers.
A few hours later, Song Zhong, who had fully recovered, appeared again in full vigor. He first put all the younger brothers into their natal space, and then swaggered to the third floor again and continued to check whether there was a teleportation array that entered the next floor.
This time, as soon as Song Zhong came up, he saw a large whirlpool in the center of the hall, just like the special passage into the Wutu Palace.
