The Longevity Family: Starting from the Branches and Leaves

Chapter 144 The third-order thunder monkey puppet and the blue crystal mine (subscription required)

early morning.

The fiery red sun just came out of the mountain, and the morning glow dyed half of the sky red.

In Chenjiaao, the smoke from the kitchen is curling up.

In the small courtyard, the fragrance of the lotus fire filled the air.

training room.

Chen Ling sat cross-legged on the futon, and in front of him was a Thunder Ape with a height of more than one foot and a black armor.

At this moment, this semi-finished Thunder Ape puppet is surrounded by cold spirit crystal flames.

The air around it is twisted, as if surrounded by a faint thunder, resisting the flames.

After about half a quarter of an hour, Lei Mang gradually dissipated.

At the same time, the black armor began to soften at a speed visible to the naked eye,
Chen Ling glanced at Thunder Ape in front of him. This semi-finished puppet has been completely renewed under the sacrifice of Cold Spirit Crystal Flame.

The original second-tier super puppet imprint inside was also replaced by a third-tier inferior imprint by Chen Ling.

Then he recited the formula in his mouth.

Immediately, streams of blood slowly flew up from the real furnace and fell in front of Lei Yuan.

Chen Ling took a deep breath, stretched out his finger, and the cold spirit crystal flames poured into Thunder Ape's body like a fire dragon, carrying blood.

Since it is a semi-finished product, the spirit fire only needs to temper the body and blood at the same time and let them fuse to form a complete puppet.

Of course, the fusion of blood and meridians is not easy.

Chen Ling wanted to fuse according to the distribution of blood in the body and in perfect proportion.

Then, controlling the consciousness and spiritual flame, Chen Ling refined it meticulously.

Thunder Ape's body is of the thunder attribute, mainly hard and violent, while the blood attribute of the snow-haired fox is dexterous and magical.

The fusion of these two completely different attributes, once it is out of control.

Then it becomes four different, and none of the advantages can be brought into play.

So during the whole process, Chen Ling didn't dare to be careless in the slightest, and refined and blended meticulously.

In the true furnace, the last drop of snow-fur spirit fox's blood completely merged into Thunder Ape's body, and a dazzling thunder light emanated from Thunder Ape's body, illuminating the entire training room at once.

"It's done, the third-rank low-grade puppet!"

Chen Ling let out a breath, with an uncontrollable joy on his face.

"boom!"

A clear and mysterious connection appeared in his sea of ​​consciousness, which was the third-order low-grade puppet imprint that he implanted in the puppet body just now.

Through this imprint, Chen Ling was able to successfully control the newly refined third-level thunder ape puppet.

Looking at Lei Yuan swimming in front of him covered in thunder, Chen Ling's eyes were filled with joy.

The black armor, which was originally dull and dull, is now blood red all over, and one can clearly see the bulging blood vessels, and the thunder light all over the body is looming, powerful and powerful, just like a revived third-order Thunder Ape.

However, since the blood of the snow-fur spirit fox was fused, there was still some difference.

Chen Ling reached out and tapped Lei Yuan's chest.

A dark hole appeared, which is the control hub of the puppet.

He put a high-grade spirit stone of wind attribute into the spirit slot.

After closing it, quietly activate the puppet imprint.

The next moment, he saw the burly Thunder Ape in front of him instantly turning into a black shadow and disappearing from his eyes without a sound.

"This is the blood talent of the snow-haired fox, invisibility?"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

Once the snow-fur spirit fox's blood talent is activated, it can blend into the surrounding environment.

Thunder Ape, which can be invisible, is comparable to a second-tier top-grade defensive spirit weapon in its physical body alone, and its attack power is also impressive. Now it can also make surprise attacks. Such a puppet is simply the perfect of perfection.

But after all, it is a fusion, and there are still flaws.

It's just that the consumption of spirit stones is too large, and it needs specific high-grade spirit stones of thunder and wind attributes to be able to activate.

And there are very few high-grade spirit stones with the thunder attribute.

And the invisible time can only last about 1 minute.

After all, the body and blood of this puppet are made up of pieces.

There is still a natural repulsion between the blood of the snow-haired fox and the body of Thunder Ape.

It's just that under the fusion of the cold crystal spirit flame and the puppet mark, a certain fusion has been achieved.

But after all, the attributes are different, no matter how optimized it is, it is impossible to achieve perfection.

"call!"

Chen Ling let out a breath.

Even for 1 minute, that's enough.

With Thunder Ape's fighting power, let alone a minute, even a second can decide the outcome!

Seeing the burly figure appearing by the gate, Chen Ling looked satisfied.

Over the past few days, he has accumulated 132 incense points.

In order to ensure the successful refining of this Thunder Ape.

He improves by adding points.

Puppet Origin (Proficiency: 83/100) (+)
At the same time, the puppet master has also reached the second-level best.

"Now we have to find a way to get a high-grade thunder-type spirit stone, otherwise this puppet is just a decoration!"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

Now there are 15 yuan high-grade spirit stones in the storage ring, most of which are fire and metal, and there is also a piece of other civil winds, but there is no thunder attribute.

"Husband, Meng Ping asks to see you!"

Just as Chen Ling was thinking, He Yunxiu's voice came from outside the door.

"Meng Ping!"

Chen Ling put away the real stove and puppets, and turned his eyes.

After the beginning of spring, the task of opening up wasteland for the new year has begun again.

And Meng Ping has been outside, according to the map originally obtained from the Luo family, to explore several veins.

Recently, if there is any progress, I will rush back.

Immediately, he got up and left the practice room.

"Master Meng, have you gained anything from this search?"

In the hall, after the two sat down as guests and hosts, Chen Ling asked with a smile.

Meng Ping drank Kou Ling tea and said with a solemn expression, "Patriarch, after a period of investigation, we have found all three areas to the west, only one in Huoyan Valley a hundred miles away from us. Found a tiny vein."

"It's a blue element spar with space attributes."

"It's just that there are a group of fire scorpions around it, and there is a second-level fire scorpion king among them. I dare not get too close."

"Blue Yuan spar!"

Chen Ling's eyes shrank slightly when he heard this. As a craftsman, he naturally knew the value of this blue crystal.

Not only is it the main material for refining storage rings, it is also the main material for most treasures with space attributes.

The price of a low-grade blue element spar of one or two ranks is hundreds of spirit stones.

A small ore vein can produce hundreds of catties, or even more.

If it can be mined, this is a very lucrative income.

"Tier [-] Fire Scorpion King!"

Chen Ling murmured.

Weigh the pros and cons of it.

With the current strength of the Chen family, it shouldn't be too dangerous to deal with a second-tier fire scorpion king!

Besides, more than 100 miles is not too far away. With the speed of Huoyou Beast, it can be reached in more than a quarter of an hour.

After thinking about it, he said, "This year, I will use this Fire Rock Valley as the land reclamation area."

Meng Ping nodded, and then said with a smile on his face, "Today there is also news from the mine that someone from the clan accidentally excavated more than ten kilograms of third-grade Jinyang stone."

"If it's not as I expected, if you continue to dig, you can still find a third-order golden sun stone."

"Okay!" Chen Ling looked happy.

After a long winter of depression, good news finally came from the mine.

"Don't spread the news of the third-order Jinyang stone!" Chen Ling warned cautiously.

With the current strength of the Chen family, they are still unable to hold onto the ore veins that can produce third-order golden sun stones.

Although I don't know how much the output is, but a dozen catties is enough to cause competition among Golden Core cultivators.

Qingyangzong and Xingjianzong have been fighting for so many years, nothing more than to split the gold veins.

Whoever masters this vein will have a lot of resources.

"Patriarch, don't worry, Master Feng has set up a small five-element phantom formation in the mine, and it will be difficult for outsiders to discover the existence of the vein."

"And the mine has always been under closed management, and the clansmen will not go out."

Meng Ping's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly clasped his fists and said.

Chen Ling nodded, glanced at Meng Ping, then raised his hand, and a pill bottle fell in front of Meng Ping, "Hall Master Meng, you have worked hard these days."

"I see that your cultivation base has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Training. This Erdan Pattern Foundation Establishment Pill is a reward for you!"

"Thank you, Patriarch!"

Meng Ping took the pill bottle and hurriedly cupped his hands to express his thanks, with an overjoyed expression on his face.

When joining the Chen family, the Chen family didn't have a single Foundation Establishment cultivator.

But in just over a year, the Chen family now has eight Foundation Establishment monks.

The rapid development far exceeded his expectations.

His Meng family has already integrated into the Chen family.

What a correct choice it was to decisively join the Chen family.

. . .

After Meng Ping left, Chen Ling thought about it, and then sent a sound transmission to his father-in-law.

Let him come to the house for a visit.

The discovery of the third-order Jinyang stone in the mine is definitely a major event.

There can be no mistakes.

So he decided to let Chuxiong go to sit in the town to make sure nothing goes wrong.

After Chu Xiong arrived, Chen Ling gave him some instructions, and handed over the Golden Armored Warrior puppet to him.

Chu Xiong himself is a puppet master, and he will be able to control the soul seal of a golden armored warrior in a short time.

"Grandpa, why are you leaving so soon!"

Watching Chuxiong come out from the hall, Chun'er, who was playing in the courtyard, said with a look of reluctance.

"Grandpa still has things to do, and he will bring something delicious for Xiaochun'er when he comes back!"

Chu Xiong picked up Xiao Chun'er and said lovingly.

"Chun'er, don't pester grandpa!"

The sound of early rain came from the room.

"Oh!"

Only then did Chun'er let out a sigh of reluctance.

Chu Xiong put Xiao Chun'er down, and urged, "Chun'er be obedient, when grandpa comes back, I'll buy you candy!"

"Ok!"

Chun'er suddenly beamed with joy.

. . .

After lunch, Chen Ling called his clansmen to discuss the land reclamation this year.

He sat quietly at the main seat, with Li Yourong and Qingtang on his left and right.

Feng Jia, Chu Gui, Shen Zhen, Fang He, and Meng Ping sat in the left and right rows.

It is currently the highest decision-making body of the Chen family.

As for Hu Wan'er and Qin Wumei, although both of them were foundation-building practitioners, one was pregnant and the other was out of character, so they didn't attend the meeting.

"Let's see if there is any good way to deal with this group of fire scorpions?"

After Meng Ping introduced the situation of Huoyan Valley to everyone, Chen Ling glanced over and asked calmly.

According to Meng Ping's investigation, there are a lot of fire scorpions in Huoyan Valley.

It is estimated that there are hundreds of them, including a second-order late-stage fire scorpion king.

There are also two second-level fire scorpions, one in the early stage and one in the middle stage.

There are hundreds of others, and the others are ordinary fire scorpions.

The overall strength is quite strong.

And the most dreadful thing is that these fire scorpions have been living in the evil mist all year round, and have been infected with evil poison.

It's dangerous if you get hit by it.

Li Yourong was the first to speak. She advocated capturing the king first, as long as the Fire Scorpion King was killed, everything else would be easy.

On the other hand, Chu Gui believed that drugs could be used to lure the fire scorpions out of Huoyan Valley and destroy them one by one, which would reduce unnecessary casualties.

The last thing is to seal the armor. He suggested to lay down the magic circle first and introduce the fire scorpion into it, so that it will get twice the result with half the effort.

It didn't even take much effort to extinguish the fire scorpion.

Of course, this formation is the key.

After some discussion, Chen Ling finally decided to adopt the tactic of sealing the armor.

First lay out the second-order magic circle and the square sword element array to trap the fire scorpions, and then strike and kill these fire scorpions in the formation.

As for the Fire Scorpion King, he will deal with it in the end.

After all, he now has two sky fire thunders on his body, as long as the time is grasped, it is enough to kill this second-level fire scorpion king.

After the discussion, Chen Ling decided to start this year's land reclamation in ten days.

The others went to prepare separately.

Fang's family prepared a detoxification elixir to defend against the evil poison and the venom of the fire scorpion.

Shen Zhen asked the workshop to speed up the refining of the magic weapon.

Fengjia prepares the formation.

Qingtang and Li Yourong stayed at Chenjia'ao.

However, just to be on the safe side, when he got home, Chen Ling sent a voice transmission to Wang Hai, asking if he had a high-grade thunder-attribute spirit stone in his hand?
Soon, Wang Hai replied that he did not have a top-grade thunder-attribute spirit stone in his hand.

Chen Ling could only ask Shen Zhen to inquire about it.

This lightning attribute spirit stone is really hard to find!

Hope to find it before the family departs.

Being able to activate the third-order Thunder Ape puppet also has an additional means to deal with the fire scorpion.

. . .

Another five days passed in a hurry.

To Chen Ling's disappointment, not only did Shen Zhen inquire from many sources, but even Hu Wan'er asked the Hu family to inquire, but he still couldn't find a top-grade thunder-attribute spirit stone.

Chen Ling felt very helpless, and it took a lot of effort to successfully refine the Thunder Ape Puppet. Could it be just a decoration?
"Forget it, just look for it slowly in the future!"

"Fortunately, we have Feng Jia to help us deal with the fire scorpion this time, otherwise it would be a big trouble!"

Spring's warm eyes shined on the patio, and Chen Ling lay leisurely on the wicker chair.

It is as blue as washing, and it is magnificent.

"The time is tight this time, otherwise it would be better to refine a batch of puppet troops and use them to deal with these fire scorpions."

Chen Ling was thinking about it.

With the improvement of puppet origin technique, he also mastered some puppet formations and puppet army refining methods.

Once the puppet army is refined, the casualties of the tribe can be minimized in the future.

"Patriarch, a cultivator who calls himself Shen Ling seeks an audience!"

At this time, some clansmen came to report.

"Shen Ling?"

Chen Ling sat up and was slightly taken aback.

"It was her!"

It was only later that I remembered that this Shen Ling was the female monk of the Suiyun Sword Sect introduced by Li Jian last time.

"What is she doing here?"

"Isn't it because I found the cold spirit crystal flame in my hand?"

Chen Ling was suspicious.

"Is there anyone else coming with you?"

Chen Ling asked.

"No, just one person!"

The tribe replied.

Only then did Chen Ling breathe a sigh of relief, thinking it had nothing to do with the cold spirit crystal inflammation.

Then he got up and walked towards the living room.

As soon as Chen Ling stepped into the hall, he saw Shen Ling, who had a refined temperament, was drinking spirit tea slowly.

On the side, Shen Zhen sat with him cautiously.
