After a mont of silence, Gu Yuntao slowly said, "Originally, the Seed Puppet Sect intended to support the Ten Thousand Dragons Comrce Association, but unexpectedly, the Purple Mountain Association won."
"However, to them, it doesn’t matter who wins."
"After all, their purpose was to support the association that controls the Wind Country."
"Now that the Purple Mountain Association has won, they will just support the Purple Mountain Association."
Upon hearing this, Yan Ming frowned even more deeply, "According to what you said, the Purple Mountain Association will eventually fall under the Seed Puppet Sect’s banner. How could Yan Ruchen possibly rebel?"
Gu Yuntao’s expression was as calm as water, and he explained unhurriedly, "The Seed Puppet Sect has always been tyrannical and overbearing, which I believe you know very well."
"And with Yan Ruchen’s cultivation, yet such combat strength, he must be quite proud in his bones."
"How could soone as talented as him be willing to be subordinate, allowing the Seed Puppet Sect to use him at will?"
"Therefore, a conflict between the Purple Mountain Association and the Seed Puppet Sect is destined, and this contradiction will inevitably erupt sooner or later."
Yan Ming slightly bowed his head in contemplation after hearing Gu Yuntao’s analysis.
He had to admit that Gu Yuntao’s words indeed made a lot of sense.
After all, the Gu Yuntao in front of him was once the indisputable number one genius of the Seed Puppet Sect, with extraordinary talent and outstanding strength.
However, even so, he was ultimately forced to leave the sect for various reasons.
This shows that in the value system of the Seed Puppet Sect, so-called geniuses are not the most important, but whether one is obedient and compliant is what they value the most as "truth."
...
...
Ti flew by, and in a blink of an eye, three years passed quietly.
Cangyue Mountain, underground cave.
Inside the secret chamber.
At this mont, the secret chamber was filled with all kinds of rare and precious puppet materials.
Xu Ping sat quietly in front of the artifact refining table, fully focused on the puppet slowly forming within the fire control array.
"Fuse!"
Xu Ping softly exclaid, his hands quickly forming complex magic techniques.
As the incantation left his lips, the flas within the fire control array instantly surged, like a roaring fire dragon, completely enveloping the puppet.
At the sa ti, with a flick of his finger, a Spirit Crystal brimming with imnse Spiritual Power streaked through the air like a teor, instantly rging into the puppet’s core.
Under the intense heat of the raging flas, the Spirit Crystal and the puppet gradually beca one, emitting waves of mysterious and powerful energy.
"It’s done!"
Seeing the fully ford puppet within the flas, Xu Ping couldn’t help but smile.
After spending so much ti, he finally crafted a third-rank mid-grade puppet.
"Extinguish!"
Xu Ping dispelled the flas of the array.
Imdiately, a lifelike third-rank mid-grade puppet holding a bow and arrow appeared before him.
The puppet stood about two ters tall, resembling a human, its entire body exuding a tallic sheen with smooth and rigid lines.
Its eyes shimred with a lively light, as if it possessed life.
Xu Ping imdiately began to perform the Puppet Control Skill, the Spirit Crystal within the core of the puppet continuously releasing powerful Spiritual Power.
This Spiritual Power flowed freely along the pre-designed ridians and circuits within the puppet’s body, activating its joints and components wherever it reached.
The secret chamber was filled with dazzling light, and the powerful ripples of Spiritual Power spread, causing the surrounding air to buzz.
"The power is quite impressive," Xu Ping nodded in satisfaction, his eyes filled with appreciation.
It’s noteworthy that third-rank mid-grade puppets are already considered high-grade puppets, and very few can refine them in the entire Wind Country, each of them being renowned.
But for Xu Ping, successfully refining a third-rank mid-grade puppet is far more than a simple technical breakthrough; it holds an exceedingly profound strategic significance.
After all, the refinent of third-rank mid-grade puppets is now on the proficiency list, and the success rate is much higher than that of ordinary Puppet Masters.
As long as there are enough puppet materials, refining ten or eight puppets is entirely possible.
Moreover, if the Divine Puppet Spirit-Enhancing Talisman is inscribed on the puppet, the power it can unleash will be significantly enhanced.
According to Xu Ping’s estimation.
If four or five third-rank mid-grade puppets inscribed with the Divine Puppet Spirit-Enhancing Talisman simultaneously attack with bows and arrows, even a Late-Stage Golden Core cultivator would be overwheld by such a powerful onslaught.
If this number reaches eight or even ten, even a Golden Core Perfection cultivator would be defeated.
The control of puppets requires very little Mana and Divine Sense, and does not affect other combat abilities at all.
....
A few hours later.
After Xu Ping ditated and restored his Mana and Divine Sense to peak condition, he eagerly inscribed the Divine Puppet Spirit-Enhancing Talisman on the puppet.
Given his current success rate, failure is simply not an option.
The only regret is that despite his repeated study and attempts, he has not yet been able to completely inscribe the original runes onto the puppet, always feeling just a little short.
The special Daoist charm contained within those runes seems shrouded in mist, and no matter how hard he tries, he cannot fully express it on the puppet.
As for the reason, he can’t figure it out no matter how he thinks about it.
Xu Ping steadied his mind, picked up a specially made carving pen, the tip of which flowed with delicate Spiritual Power.
As the carving pen slowly descended and lightly touched the puppet’s surface, a soft spiritual light imdiately shone.
