Chapter 247: Chapter 126: He’s Worthy of the Saintess? His Strength Has Greatly Increased, Adding Wings to a Tiger_2
The two of them courteously exchanged items. From a distance, Zheng Yunrui, who was watching, couldn’t help but develop a strange expression. She rubbed her hair bun and thought to herself, How strange! They’re clearly exchanging Secret Manuals, but why does it look like they’re exchanging tokens of affection?
Zheng Yunrui wore a peculiar expression. Beside her, Liy Ruoqing muttered softly, "Mr. Mu, in his green robe, possesses an elegant figure and handsome features, far beyond ordinary men! The Third Princess is a national beauty, ethereal and refined. Looking at them together, they do seem to..."
At this point, Liy Ruoqing suddenly noticed that Celestial Sect Elder Hua Yanluo seemed to have overheard his murmuring and was looking over. He quickly shut his mouth, gave a sheepish smile, and dared not continue.
That’s the Third Princess of Great Xia, Celestial Sect Saintess Xiaoo Ying’Er! Have I lost my mind recently? How dare I gossip about her like this!
Liy Ruoqing didn’t dare to speak further, but Zheng Yunrui, as if inspired, patted her hair bun and whispered, "A perfect match of talent and beauty! No wonder when I saw that Jade Token, I thought it was a token of affection!"
Hearing this, Liy Ruoqing was stunned. His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Zheng Yunrui.
Damn! This tigress really dares to speak her mind! Isn’t she afraid the Celestial Sect Elder will strike her dead on the spot? Even I, the Black Tiger Hall Master, don’t dare to say more!
"You’re Miss Zheng of the Zheng Family, correct? What did you just say about a token of affection?"
A spectral figure tore through the air, landing beside Zheng Yunrui in an instant. It was Hua Yanluo, her expression extremely hostile.
Zheng Yunrui stiffened, immediately clamping her mouth shut, not daring to utter another word. Even the hair bun on her head trembled with fear.
Hua Yanluo snorted softly, then turned her head to look into the distance. In that direction, ’Mu Shiba’ and Xiaoo Ying’Er were sitting together on a white carpet.
Hua Yanluo said softly, "The Celestial Sect Saintess and Princess of Great Xia are so noble. With the Profound Phoenix Strange Vein and the Appearance of an Exiled Immortal, she can cultivate the Blood Bath Divine Skill. This is a world-shaking Talent, rarely seen among millions, unmatched in the entire Great Xia Dynasty! Even in the Rakshasa Divine Kingdom and Central Divine Dynasty, perhaps only a few Buddha Sons from the Buddhist Sect or Saint Heirs from the Immortal Sect can compare to our Saintess. Which ordinary Martial Cultivator in Great Xia could possibly be worthy of her?"
Her voice lowered even more. "Although this Mr. Mu possesses an Abnormal Technique and great strength, he is ultimately far inferior to those Saint Heirs from the Immortal Sects in the Central Divine Dynasty. He is absolutely unworthy of our Saintess. All of you, stop spouting nonsense!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Elder is right!"
"Right, right, right! Elder speaks the truth!"
Liy Ruoqing, Liy Ruo Ying, and Zheng Yunrui nodded repeatedly in fear, expressing their agreement.
Not far away, Saintess Xiaoo Ying’Er seemed to have heard something. She frowned, glanced in their direction, and then continued reading the Secret Manual. Meanwhile, Lin Xuankong placed the Jade Token on his forehead, quickly absorbing the information constantly being transmitted into his Brain Mansion from it.
After Half a Cup of Tea Time, Lin Xuankong finally put down the Jade Token, a hint of understanding in his eyes. So, this Spirit Puppet Technique, similar to the Eight Gates Celestial Eye, is an Abnormal Technique activated by Heart Thought. The difference is that the Eight Gates Celestial Eye is passed down from the Demon Sects of the Rakshasa Kingdom. It requires Strange Veins like Zhao Yufei’s to activate, and it is used on living beings. The Spirit Puppet Technique, however, is a Buddhist Secret Technique from the Rakshasa Kingdom. It only has requirements for the strength and Grade of Heart Thought, and it acts on beings that have been dead for no more than seven days! The Spirit Puppet Technique converts the Cultivator’s Heart Thought into a condensed substance similar to True Qi. This substance infiltrates the target’s body, refines the target’s remaining Divine Soul, and leaves behind a control imprint. It’s akin to the Cultivator gaining a Puppet avatar! Unlike activating the Demon Pearl or the Black Soul Wondrous Jade, the Demons and Shadows of the Black Soul summoned by them are formed by the Martial Cultivator’s Qi Blood, matching the Cultivator in Same Tier and Cultivation. However, the Puppet avatar controlled by the Spirit Puppet Technique already possesses a body and Demon Technique. Its power is related only to the Demon’s own Realm and is unrelated to the Cultivator. This gives the Cultivator the opportunity to control a powerful Demon Puppet much stronger than themselves! For example, consider the late-stage Tier Nine Flood Dragon Puppet guarding Kyoto. Once its Divine Soul is refined, as long as its refiner, Emperor Xiaoo, allows it, even a Tier One Martial Cultivator could control the late-stage Tier Nine Flood Dragon Puppet in battle! A Tier One Martial Cultivator possessing a Tier Nine Puppet could naturally battle a Tier Nine Powerhouse... This Spirit Puppet Technique truly transforms the mundane into the miraculous!
"Mr. Mu, have you memorized the Spirit Puppet Technique?" Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er asked when she saw Lin Xuankong put down the Jade Token.
Lin Xuankong nodded and said, "This Spirit Puppet Technique is indeed wondrous. Without experiencing it personally, it’s hard to imagine such a Miracle Technique exists in this world! With such a Miracle Technique, doesn’t it mean that if one refined dozens of Tier Seven Puppets, even a group of Tier One Martial Cultivators could easily face a host of Tier Seven Martial Cultivators?"
Xiaoo Ying’Er shook her head slightly. "Refining such Spirit Puppets requires the slain Demon to be completely intact, its body without major damage. Otherwise, once the Spirit Puppet is refined, being a dead object, it cannot recover from injuries, and its combat power will naturally be greatly reduced.
"High-Tier Demons are rare to begin with. Furthermore, subduing a Demon of Tier Seven or higher definitely involves a fierce battle, making it very easy to damage their bodies.
"Others don’t have a Demon Prison Cage like yours. Obtaining an intact Demon corpse isn’t that easy!"
