After five days, the puppet ink was finally made.

A puppet tree was ten feet tall. Considering that there were six thousand puppet stones, Shen Qingluo cut each tree into five even parts.

After that, he spent two thousand points and exchanged a high-quality engraving pen specially used for refining puppets from the system interface.

The next step is the most important step, rune engraving.

Shen Qingluo held the engraving pen, dipped it in puppet ink, took out a piece of it, and began to carefully engrave the 108 runes recorded in the Thousand Puppet Technique in order.
During this period, there must not be any mistakes in the engraved runes, otherwise the puppet wood will be directly destroyed.

The jade slip also mentioned that the force must be kept consistent during engraving.

If one rune is deep and the other is shallow, the puppet wood will not be completely destroyed, but after being refined into the corresponding puppet, not only will its power be greatly reduced, but its movements will also be inflexible.

In addition, there are also requirements for the application of puppet ink during engraving.

After dipping the engraving pen in ink, engrave it on the tree trunk. If there is too much ink and it overflows, the corresponding rune will be scrapped and the corresponding puppet wood will be useless.

It is also not good to use too little ink, otherwise the runes will not be visible and the power of the puppet will be reduced.

The most crucial point is that the rune can only be engraved once. Once the rune is not visible, it will not be feasible to re-engraving it along the original pattern, and all the work will be in vain.

All in all, the refining method described in the Thousand Puppet Technique is extremely demanding.

Fortunately, as long as this technique is successfully used, the combat effectiveness of the resulting puppet will be quite considerable.

According to the records on the jade slip, if it can be refined perfectly, the resulting puppet will have combat power comparable to that of a Return to Void cultivator.

As for the specific small realm, there is a certain element of luck involved. Good luck is equivalent to the perfection of Return to the Void, while bad luck is equivalent to the initial stage of Return to the Void. There is no fixed number.

If the puppet has flaws, then depending on the severity of the flaws, the one with smaller flaws can also have combat power comparable to that of a god.

As long as this puppet refining technique can be mastered, the corresponding puppet's minimum combat power will be equivalent to a cultivator in the Jindan stage.

About two sticks of incense later, all 108 runes were engraved on the first piece of puppet wood. The process was not smooth as there were several flaws.

The first time engraving, the main purpose was to accumulate experience, so Shen Qingluo did not give up halfway.

After the engraving was completed, a ball of white light appeared in the central area of ​​the tree trunk, where the fifty-ninth rune was located.

This is specially used to place the puppet stone. As long as this stone is embedded, the white light will disappear.

Shen Qingluo waved his sleeves and brought up a spiritual power, pulling a puppet stone outside the bamboo house in front of him, and controlled it with his spiritual power to slowly approach the location of the white light.

After a moment, the light faded and the stone disappeared without a trace.

When the puppet stone was refined, an imprint of spiritual consciousness was engraved into it. Now it is embedded in the puppet wood. Under the influence of the runes, its shape can be controlled as one wishes.

Shen Qingluo directly turned the puppet into a two-meter-tall square wooden man.

Due to the relatively large number of flaws, the wooden man's strength is roughly equivalent to that of the early Nascent Soul stage.

This kind of puppet is good at close combat and has strong defense. If compared with cultivators, it can be considered a physical cultivator.

As for the means of long-range attack, there is only one, and that is the red light shot out from the center of the eyebrows. This attack can lock onto the enemy, and as long as it is launched, it will not miss.

However, this kind of attack will directly consume the energy of the puppet stone and the engraved runes. If it is used too many times, the puppet's strength will slowly decrease until it is scrapped. The puppets refined by the Thousand Puppet Technique do not have obvious advantages in single combat. If there are a large number of them, they will have a blessing effect, so they are more suitable for group combat.

The jade slip clearly states that during a battle, the area is limited to ten miles in radius. As long as the puppets are within this range, the greater the number, the stronger the blessing effect.

To illustrate this in detail, the jade slip gives some examples.

If there are ten puppets within a radius of ten miles, then when fighting the enemy, the runes between the ten puppets will generate induction, and each of their strength will be increased by 10% on the original basis.

If there are a hundred puppets, when fighting an enemy, the strength will increase by 20% on the original basis; if there are a thousand puppets, the strength will increase by 50%.

Shen Qingluo recalled the contents of the jade slip, took out the second puppet wood, and continued to carve the runes.
As time went by, I became more and more skilled at engraving and gradually stopped making mistakes.

In the outside world, the mornings rise and the evenings set, day after day, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, in the space of the Mountain and River Fan, Shen Qingluo finished carving the last puppet wood, embedded the puppet stone, and used his spiritual power to control it to turn it into a square wooden man. At this point, the refining of the puppet came to an end.

A total of 6,000 were refined, of which 720 had defects, and the remaining 5,280 all possessed strength comparable to that of Return to Void cultivators.

The number seems to be a lot, but if you encounter a Mahayana or tribulation-crossing monk, it is actually nothing.

However, people with this level of cultivation are ultimately a minority, so this group of puppets can still play a major role in the future catastrophe.

After the puppet was refined, Shen Qingluo took out another treasure obtained from an ancient battlefield, a meteorite containing fairy spirit.

This item can be used to improve one's cultivation. The reason why those aquatic creatures are rich in spiritual energy is thanks to this treasure.

Now that she is at the perfect state of Return to the Void, she cannot break through in the space of the Mountain and River Fan. Otherwise, when the thunder strikes and splits the space, this spiritual treasure will most likely be destroyed.

Realizing this, Shen Qingluo immediately left the place with the blue and white meteorite that was half a person's height and returned to the cave in the Law Enforcement Peak.

She sat cross-legged on the mat, placing the meteorite in front of her. The aura of the immortal spirit in it continued to spread outward, just in line with the speed at which she absorbed and refined it.
In the outside world, a lot has happened in the past six months.

First, the identity of the Lord of Danqingque was known to the cultivators of Dongling Continent, which caused countless waves. Most people were shocked and sighed, while the remaining few did not believe the news at all.

Among them, the reaction of the Daoyi Sect's cultivators was the most intense. The sword-wielding elder Wu Hong's sea of ​​consciousness was severely damaged by Shen Qingluo, and the top-grade elixir he took was precisely refined by Shen Qingluo's clone.

When the news reached Daoyi Sect, some people immediately started conspiracy theories, believing that the elixir was fake, which was why it didn't work.

The relevant remarks quickly spread after being spread by some people with ulterior motives, with the intention of ruining Shen Qingluo's reputation.

When the monks of Taisheng Sect learned of this, they immediately fought back.

It is not difficult to identify fake elixirs. Not to mention that there are no less than a hundred high-level alchemy practitioners in a sect, even if you are not a cultivator of this art, as long as you have a certain understanding of elixirs, you can tell the real from the fake.

Unless Daoyi Sect is full of incompetents, how could they not be able to tell the authenticity of a mere elixir?
As soon as this statement was made, it immediately stopped the rumors spread by people with ulterior motives.

In this case, if they still insist that the elixir is fake, it will undoubtedly show the outside world that the sect is incompetent. By then, Daoyi Sect will no longer have any prestige in front of other forces.

During that period, whenever the monks of Tai Sheng Sect who were traveling outside for training heard someone secretly talking about and slandering Shen Qingluo, they would not hesitate to use relevant words to fight back, leaving the troublemakers speechless.

When he encountered a brainless black person, he beat him up. In the process, he also found an undercover agent who was sent by Chenweijie hundreds of years ago and lurked on the mainland. It was an unexpected gain.
