The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

Chapter 125 Refining the second-order soul puppet and the birthday of the Hu family's golden elixir (subscription required)
After lunch, He Yunxiu made Chen Ling a cup of spiritual tea.

Then go to coax Shengxia and Chun'er to sleep.

After Chen Ling finished drinking the spirit tea, he came to Qin Wumei's room.

The afternoon sun gradually climbed up the window lattice.

The projection like broken gold shines on every corner and every speck of dust.

A faint medicinal fragrance permeates the air.

Make people feel comfortable!

Qin Wumei, who was looking at the alchemy book, saw Chen Ling and frowned in dissatisfaction, "Isn't this the owner of the Chen family? What brought you to me today?"

There is a strong complaint in the tone!
Chen Ling was slightly taken aback, and then remembered that these days, he was busy refining weapons, and spent nights with other wives and concubines on the other hand, neglecting the pregnant and sentimental Qin Wumei.

"Fifth Sister, it's not good for your husband." Chen Ling put his arms around Qin Fifth Sister.

"don't want!"

Qin Wumei put down the alchemy book and pushed Chen Ling away halfway.

Chen Ling hurriedly took out the real stove from the storage ring, and said with a smile on his face, "Look, this is a second-tier middle-grade real stove, which is refined from third-tier materials, and its actual power is no less than that of a second-tier high-grade , even top quality!"

"It took me several days to refine it!"

"Second-rank high-grade alchemy stove!" Qin Wumei took over the alchemy stove after hearing this, and began to watch it carefully.

It is warm and delicate in hand, very tactile.

Based on her alchemy experience, she can naturally see the extraordinaryness of this alchemy furnace.

Put away the alchemy furnace, although his face was still sullen, but he had already forgiven him in his heart.

Chen Ling coaxed her for a while, and then she smiled.

[Hint: Your wife, Qin Wumei, has a sense of family belonging of 110%, and her golden incense value is +2. 】

The panel prompt bar appears.

Chen Ling felt helpless. Once a woman had a child, either her mother's love was overflowing, or she was unreasonable!

. . .

Ten days passed in a hurry.

Chen Ling left Chenjia'ao early in the morning and came to Qingfengfang City.

The layout of Fang City is almost the same as that of Jinshan Fang City, and it is estimated that it was built according to the same blueprint.

On the main street, many shops have been rented out one after another, and there are many casual repair vendors on both sides.

People come and go, and the flow rate is probably close to [-]% to [-]% of that in Jinshanfang City.

Chen Ling quickly found the shop in Wanbaolou.

An exquisite and gorgeous loft located on the main road of the most prosperous east district in Fangshi.

The plaque hanging on the gate has the words "Wanbaolou" written on it.

Mana fluctuations can be seen faintly in the whole building, obviously a magic circle is arranged.

Chen Ling entered the pavilion, showed the jade badge of the second-level guest minister to an attendant in Tsing Yi who was in charge of hospitality, and was quickly led to the VIP room on the second floor.

"Thank you, Senior Chen!"

Looking at the Ice Flame Sword and the Real Fire Stove, Li Jian was delighted and his tone was a little excited.

Chen Ling nodded calmly, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

"Senior, here are five hundred middle-grade spirit stones, as well as the pill formulas of Peiyuan Pill, Xuanyuan Pill and Ziwei Pill!"

"As you ordered, [-] spirit stones and [-] contribution points have been deducted from the three pill recipes!"

Li Jian put away the Bingyan Sword and Dan Furnace, and handed Chen Ling a two-way storage bag.

Chen Ling nodded with a smile on his face, becoming more and more satisfied with Li Jian's service attitude.

Then he asked, "Are there any materials for making puppets for sale in the building?"

"Yes, senior, please follow me!" Li Jian said with a smile.

Afterwards, Chen Ling followed Li Jian to the materials area on the first floor.

In the second-order material area, each material is paved with delicate yellow satin.

This time, Chen Ling wanted to independently refine the second-order soul puppet, not a monster puppet. He needed to use many materials such as black iron wood, soul stone, golden silk, phantom stone, etc. to refine the body.

For each type, the price is several thousand lower-grade spirit stones, and some are tens of thousands.

Chen Ling spent [-] spirit stones and purchased four materials.

Almost half of the middle-grade spirit stones on his body were consumed.

Although there were still ten high-grade spirit stones, they were reserved for opening the formation, and Chen Ling didn't dare to use them at will.

But four materials are enough for him.

For an ordinary second-tier puppet master, the success rate can reach [-]%, which is enough to be proud of.

And Chen Ling's success rate can often reach more than [-]% by adding points and strong spiritual consciousness.

This is his biggest advantage!

In addition, he has a cautious personality, and often comprehends high-level spirit prohibition before he begins to refine mid-level spirit weapons.

Then, with a fluke mentality, he asked Li Jian if there was any third-order monster spirit blood for sale?

Li Jian shook his head.

And just as Chen Ling was about to leave Wanbao Building, he unexpectedly met Shen Ling and Mu Yi at the door.

"Master Chen, can our spirit weapon be refined?" Shen Ling glanced at Chen Ling and asked hastily.

Chen Ling nodded, bowed his hands, and said with a smile, "I have handed it over to Deacon Li!"

When the two heard this, they both showed joy.

Shen Lingdai raised her eyebrows, a smile appeared on her delicate and glamorous face, and said, "We are about to go to Xiling Swamp, I wonder if Master Chen Qi is interested in going with us, and the treatment will naturally satisfy you!"

Chen Ling was taken aback when he heard that.

Thanks to the cooperation with Beast Sect, Chen Ling also had a general understanding of the terrain in the western region.

This Xiling Swamp is located in the area where the Hundred Beasts Sect and the Star Sword Sect meet in the west, stretching for hundreds of miles.

It's a wasteland.

Not only is the evil spirit pervading, but there are also many second-order monsters lurking in it.

Cultivators of the Chen family had to be careful every time they passed by in the air.

The last time he was ambushed by monsters was also in this area.

Chen Ling shook his head directly, and refused with a smile, "The family affairs are busy, and I can't separate myself!"

How could he take such a risk to such a dangerous place?

Although the two are mid-stage Foundation Establishment monks, but I am not familiar with them, so naturally I won't do anything unnecessary!
"I don't know how to flatter you, Miss Shen invites you, that's how I think highly of you!"

Mu Yi's face darkened, and he snorted coldly.

Seeing Mu Yi's cold and arrogant face, Chen Ling felt a little displeased, but considering the background of the two of them, there was no need to offend them for such a trivial matter, so he cupped his hands at Shen Ling and left.

Seeing Chen Ling being so ignorant, Mu Yi looked angry, and was about to stop him loudly.

"The two seniors came just in time. The spirit weapon has been refined for you, please go upstairs to watch!"

At this moment, Li Jian came out, clasped his fists at the two of them and said.

Only then did Shen Ling and Mu Yi follow Li Jian into Wanbao Building.

But Mu Yi looked at Chen Ling's leaving figure, and a stern look flashed in his eyes!

Then Chen Ling came to his shop.

The five stalls are connected together, about 100 square meters, and it seems that the scale is quite large.

The decoration is also antique, very classy!

"Husband, you are here!"

When Qin Yelian saw Chen Ling, a sweet smile appeared on her pretty face.

"Meet the Patriarch!"

More than a dozen other tribesmen who worked at the stall also saluted Chen Ling.

Chen Ling smiled, gave up, and briefly read it.

In the store, the main sales are low-level instruments and elixir.

There are two or three scattered practitioners who buy magic weapons in the shop.

"Husband, there is a small courtyard of our Chen family in the back alley, do you want to go and have a look?"

Qin Yelian asked expectantly.

Chen Ling is mainly looking at the business situation of the store now, but the yard doesn't pay much attention to it. Looking at Qin Wumei's graceful body, she walks slowly towards the inner room.

He also followed.

The layout of the shop here is the outer shop and the inner courtyard.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, Qin Yelian turned on the sound insulation array, her face flushed, and she entangled her.

Just caught Chen Ling by surprise.

. . .

Back home, it was already dusk.

The whole family is waiting for him to cook!
After eating, Chen Ling played with Xiaopingan and the others for a while, and told them a few short stories!

It wasn't until He Yunxiu asked them to take a bath that Chen Ling came to the training room!
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, Chen Ling clicked on the panel.

Incense value: 80.

In the past ten days, another 80 incense points have been accumulated!
""Puppet Origin Technique", upgrade!"

Chen Ling's consciousness was on the + point after "Puppet Transformation Origin Technique".

The incense value decreased rapidly, and in the sea of ​​consciousness, a familiar figure appeared again.

The figure was chanting words, and at the same time, one after another soul imprints were condensed out in his hands.

Those soul marks were slowly imprinted on Chen Ling's sea of ​​consciousness.

There seemed to be a flash of soul marks in Chen Ling's eyes. At this moment, as if he had opened his eyes, he suddenly opened up.

Various methods of refining puppets have emerged one after another, and countless understandings such as the method of patchwork, the method of division, and the method of soul restraint are clearly understood.

At the same time, a large amount of knowledge about puppet materials suddenly gushed out from the sea of ​​consciousness, and all kinds of puppet materials flashed in his sea of ​​consciousness one by one, and were imprinted into the sea of ​​consciousness.

Twenty breaths later, the figure in the sea of ​​consciousness gradually dispersed, and he withdrew from enlightenment.

Chen Ling's eyes flickered, "No wonder Chu Yu said that it took Yue Zhang more than forty years to barely become a top-rank puppet master."

The knowledge required for puppet art is even more complicated than that of refining weapons.

He looked at the panel, and the incense value was reset to zero. In the skill column on the panel, "Puppet Origin Technique": (20% proficiency).

Puppeteer: Tier [-] Top Grade.

"The second-tier top-grade puppet master has already been able to refine puppets that are equivalent to the combat power of the late foundation establishment stage. With more improvements, the real combat power will even be above the foundation establishment stage!"

"Coupled with powerful spiritual consciousness, as long as you don't meet the peak monks who established the foundation, you will be able to protect yourself!"

Chen Ling thought about it, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

The combat power in the late stage of foundation establishment is considered the top combat power in Star Sword Sect!
But thinking of the current situation of Star Sword Sect, my heart suddenly calmed down again!
"We still need to improve our strength as soon as possible!"

Now that you are dragging your family and your mouth, you can't make any mistakes!

Then he made another cup of spiritual tea and sat on the futon.

I feel that the spirit tea is getting more and more delicious!
Puppet art!

Refiner!

Alchemy!

Chen Ling himself was puzzled. In the world of comprehension, there was probably only one monk who was as mottled and proficient in cultivation as he was.

But in a dangerous world.

As long as he can protect himself, he wants to master it.

The so-called many skills do not overwhelm one's body, these are all means to settle down, not to mention, no matter how mysterious the skills are, for him, they are just a little extra.

Get more incense, and marry a few more concubines!
After drinking the spirit tea, Chen Ling began to conceive the puppet he was going to refine this time.

Golden armor puppets and shadow puppets.

This was the plan that Chen Ling had already prepared.

Golden Armored Warrior puppets are known for their strength and defense. They are metallic, and their golden armor is extremely hard, and their strength is even more powerful.

In addition to the materials needed to refine the puppet itself, Chen Ling also decided to use the third-order golden yang stone to make his golden armor.

Of course, in addition to materials, there is also a refining method. This time, Chen Ling used the method of soul restraint.

The so-called soul restraint method is to imprint the soul mark on the puppet, so that it has a certain attribute idea.

This is the most difficult refining method among the many refining methods of puppet art.

It requires the puppeteer to possess extremely powerful spiritual consciousness in order to be able to successfully imprint the soul mark.

For example, the soul mark of a warrior in golden armor is the soul seal of a warrior.

The formula alone is extremely profound and obscure, and it is not easy to condense it.

And the level of the soul seal also determines the level of the puppet's combat power.

If the materials used to refine the puppet are all third-order materials, but the soul seal is only first-order, then the overall combat power displayed by this puppet may not reach the second-order.

As for the shadow puppet, Chen Ling planned to blend the purple ice essence and lapis lazuli left over from refining the ice flame sword into it to create an ice flame sword for it, which is absolutely powerful!
"Using the "Puppet Transformation Origin Technique" to enter the proficient state, now refining these two puppets should not be a problem!"

Chen Ling took a deep breath and adjusted his state.

The material is then removed.

Then run the Nine-turn Lingyan Jue, condense the Qinglian Thunder Ganghuo, and start refining the golden armor warrior puppets.

In the raging flames, materials such as black iron wood, soul stone, golden sun stone, golden silk, etc. were under the control of the flames and Chen Ling's spiritual consciousness.

Constantly changing various forms.

Accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of "Zi Zi", the spiritual flame burst out suddenly.

Almost fills the entire room.

And in the flames, a golden glow bloomed.

A golden armored warrior more than ten feet tall emerged from the flames and stood in front of Chen Ling.

It's just that the expression is dull, like a puppet, lifeless!
Chen Ling looked solemn, and the next step was to refine the puppet, the most critical step, to build a soul seal.

Following the movement of Fa Jue, Chen Ling's spiritual consciousness began to build a soul seal.

Different from the spirit seal condensed by the spirit pattern of the spirit ban, the soul seal is like the figure drawn by the painter.

At the same time, under the influence of the soul, this condensed soul seal can give the puppet simple and autonomous control capabilities.

First, the head of the Golden Armored Warrior's soul seal, then the body, and the limbs gradually condensed into a complete soul seal.

At this moment, Chen Ling felt that the soul seal had a mysterious aura, as if it was an extension of his soul.

However, the consciousness was obviously consumed, but he controlled the soul seal in an orderly manner, and slowly merged into the puppet's body.

As the soul seal completely merged into the golden body, the puppet's body suddenly burst into golden light.

Exudes an astonishing coercion.

A pair of eyes slowly opened, exuding a look of indifference, as if there was a breath of life.

Completely different from the original sluggishness, there is more vitality and aura.

"It's done!"

A smile appeared on Chen Ling's face.

Put away Qinglian Thunder Ganghuo, and then move your mind.

"Meet the master!"

The burly body of the Golden Armored Warrior slowly knelt down towards Chen Ling.

After implanting the soul seal, the Golden Armored Warrior puppet has a simple consciousness.

Chen Ling put it away in satisfaction. As for fighting in the future, he needed to put in spirit stones of the same attribute.

Looking at the full moon hanging high outside, it was already late at night.

Chen Ling immediately got up and left the practice room, and went to Sister Fang Ying's room.

. . .

Another five days passed in a hurry.

On this day, near the afternoon of late autumn, there is already a hint of coolness.

In the courtyard, Chen Lingqing created a large open space.

The sisters Fang Ying were standing back to back, holding a shining golden spirit sword.

Chen Ling sat quietly on the rattan chair in the corridor, looking at the sisters with serious expressions, with a smile on their faces.

The cultivation base of their sisters has also reached the Great Consummation of Qi training, coupled with the combined fencing technique they have practiced, the power is not at all inferior to that of the monks in the early stage of foundation establishment.

But under the attack of the shadow puppet, it fell completely below.

Last night, Chen Ling successfully refined the shadow puppet and equipped it with an ice flame sword.

Combat power is definitely high.

After lunch, Chen Ling took sister Fang Ying to try out the specific combat power of the shadow puppets.

Even with preparations, Sister Fang Ying still failed to block the shadow puppet's surprise attack.

But Fang Luo refused to accept it and must try again.

Chen Ling originally wanted to refuse, after all, an attack by the shadow puppet would consume a lot of energy.

Although he controls the puppet, so that he can only exert about [-]% of his combat power, but it also consumes two middle-grade spirit stones.

But Fang Luo couldn't hold back Fang Luo's soft and hard palate, and finally agreed!

Seeing that the two people's spiritual consciousness had been spread out, but they could not detect the trace of the shadow puppet, Chen Ling became more and more satisfied with the shadow puppet.

"Ready! Going to strike!" he shouted with a smile.

At the same time, send ideas to the shadow puppet.

Sister Fang Ying frowned slightly, ready to fight.

But the time passed by every minute and second.

But no shadow appeared.

Fang Luo couldn't help asking, "Husband, why haven't you made a move yet?"

Chen Ling said with a smile, "Your experience is not as good as your sister's. When you are facing the enemy, you can easily be distracted."

"The shadow puppet is going to attack you!"

As the words fell, a flaming sword light suddenly pierced out of the void and shot towards Fang Luo.

And the figure of the shadow puppet is almost the light and shadow of the green leaf bamboo swaying slightly attached to the ground, it is difficult to detect its existence.

Fang Ying also said with a smile, "This is called a soldier who never tires of deceit. We just wait for it to attack!"

The swords in the hands of the two sisters drew an arc of light and shadow at the same time, which instantly turned into an arc of sword light, and bombarded towards the flaming sword energy.

boom!
Fire is everywhere!

Sister Fang Ying took two steps back almost at the same time.

He scanned his surroundings warily.

Chen Ling smiled, "Okay! That's it for this time!"

Then with a move of consciousness, he recalled the shadow puppet.

There was a wave of light and shadow flickering in front of him, and then a lifelike black-clothed puppet with a slender figure and glamorous appearance appeared.

Chen Ling was quite satisfied with the performance of the shadow puppet.

Even if his spiritual consciousness in the late stage of foundation establishment was not for the soul seal that controls the puppet, it would be difficult to detect its existence.

If it is used for a surprise attack, it may be difficult for monks in the late stage of foundation establishment to guard against it!
Chen Ling put it in the storage ring with satisfaction.

"Husband, this puppet is so powerful! If we hadn't been on guard in advance, we wouldn't be able to stop it at all!"

Fang Ying came over and praised.

Chen Ling was about to boast a few words, when footsteps came from outside the gate.

Then, Shen Zhen hurried in!
"Uncle Shen, what's the matter?"

Chen Ling stood up and asked.

"Patriarch, in three days' time it will be the 200th birthday of the ancestor of the Hundred Beasts' Hu family Jindan. The Hu family sent an invitation to invite the Patriarch to celebrate!"

Shen Zhen took out a jade slip from his pocket and handed it to Chen Ling.

Chen Ling took the jade slip and scanned it with his spiritual sense.

The content inside is similar to that of an invitation.

Basically, the ancestor of the Hu family celebrated his [-]th birthday and invited the head of the Chen family, Chen Ling, to celebrate the new year!

Chen Ling frowned slightly. For ordinary monks, receiving an invitation from a Jindan monk would be a joy to burn incense.

The face of the Jindan cultivator still has a great deterrent effect.

It's just that Chen Ling has never been to the site of Hundred Beasts since he started his business in Hundred Beasts for more than half a year.

He has never dealt with anyone from the Hu family.

But Patriarch Jindan had already issued an invitation letter, and he had to go there in person no matter what.

Shen Zhen seemed to have seen Chen Ling's hesitation, and said with a smile, "Patriarch, besides congratulating Patriarch Hu, there is another important thing to do this time!"

"What's the matter?" Chen Ling asked.

"I have already negotiated with the Hu family to buy two second-level fire beasts raised by them."

"In the future, it will be much safer to use this fire beast to transport goods!"

Shen Zhen said.

Fang Ying brewed a cup of spirit tea from the hall and brought it over.

"Uncle Shen, have a cup of tea first, let's chat slowly!" Chen Ling said with a smile.

Afterwards, he discussed with Shen Zhen about the birthday of the ancestor of the Hu family.

What hobbies does Patriarch Hu have?
What gift is appropriate?
Do the rest of the Hu family want to take care of it?

But for these, Shen Zhen has already done enough homework, Chen Ling just needs to go there in person!

. . .

"Husband, it is said that the Hundred Beasts are all barbarians, you have to be careful!"

"Why don't you let Miss Qingtang accompany you there!"

While eating breakfast, He Yunxiu asked worriedly.

Chen Ling smiled and said, "It's okay! I'm going to celebrate someone's birthday, and I'm not fighting a war. Besides, he's a Golden Core cultivator, and most people don't dare to provoke him."

He Yunxiu looked at Sister Fang Ying again, and said, "If you don't take Fang Ying and the others, you are used to Fang Ying's cooking, so I can serve you on the way."

Sister Fang Ying also looked at Chen Ling expectantly.

Chen Ling shook his head and said, "It's not far from the Hundred Beasts Sect. It doesn't take an hour to go there by cloud boat."

Now I have two second-order top-grade soul puppets in my hand, as long as I don't meet the peak foundation-building monks, there will be no danger!
Seeing what Chen Ling said, He Yunxiu nodded.

After a few simple instructions, Chen Ling walked out of the compound and came to the square.

In the square, Shen Zhen had already brought a few people from his tribe, waiting on the cloud boat.

Chen Ling jumped onto the cloud boat and shouted to the clansmen, "Let's go!"

The cloud boat turned into a stream of light and flew towards the west.

The scenery below quickly passed by, and after Star Sword Sect's continuous land reclamation, all the evil spirits in the city of Qingfengfang within a hundred miles have been cleared.

But after half a quarter of the journey, the wasteland area appeared again in front of him.

The thin evil spirit began to appear again, and a valley flowing with a black swamp appeared in everyone's vision.

"We have entered the Xiling Swamp, everyone be alert!"

Following Shen Zhen shouted loudly.

More than a dozen members of the Zhantang tribe held up the first-grade high-grade magic weapon, the black iron crossbow, and stared at their surroundings with vigilance.

Chen Ling scanned the surrounding area for tens of feet, but found no monsters, and immediately shouted, "Go faster!"

The tribe maintained a high level of vigilance, Yunzhou continued to roar forward!
Rumble!
Continue to travel for more than ten miles, and suddenly there is a loud noise in the swamp ahead!

"Not good, there are monsters attacking, the cloud boat is flying high!"

Shen Zhen shouted hastily!

Chen Ling frowned slightly, staring at the swamp below.
