Mortal: Return of apprenticeship? Bug at the beginning

After planting the jade oak seedling in the spiritual field, Jiang Tongyue began to comprehend the true meaning of puppets.

The materials needed to refine a late Nascent Soul puppet were too scarce. Even the Xinghai Merchant Alliance had only gathered enough materials to refine one late Nascent Soul puppet.

Therefore, Jiang Tongyue must be careful not to waste these materials.

While comprehending the true meaning of puppets, Jiang Tongyue also used the Palm of Heaven Bottle to promote the growth of jade oak, thousand-year-old iron wood and other materials needed to refine Yuanying late stage puppets.

Finally, after a few months, Jiang Tongyue became somewhat confident in refining a late Nascent Soul puppet, and he had gathered all the materials and was ready to start refining a late Nascent Soul puppet.

Jiang Tongyue entered a secret room, took out the Tiangang Xuandan Ding and various precious materials, added them into the Tiangang Xuandan Ding one by one, and then opened his mouth and spit out the Samadhi True Fire, which immediately burned on the Tiangang Xuandan Ding...

Spring goes and autumn comes, time passes by little by little. For a cultivator, more than a year is nothing.

After a year of hard work, Jiang Tongyue finally succeeded in refining a puppet in the late Nascent Soul stage.

Of course, due to the lack of precious materials such as the Demon Marrow Drill and the Divine Mud, the late Nascent Soul puppet refined by Jiang Tongyue could not be as strong as the late Nascent Soul puppet refined by Han Li under the guidance of Lord Dayan in the original book.

Moreover, although the humanoid puppet refined by Jiang Tongyue looks somewhat like a human, upon closer inspection, one can immediately tell that it is a puppet.

However, even so, Jiang Tongyue's late Nascent Soul puppet is still very precious.

With this late Nascent Soul puppet in hand, the strength of Huangfeng Valley will immediately increase several times, and even forces like the Hehuan Sect will not want to provoke it.

Moreover, this puppet in the late Nascent Soul stage is not like humans, which has the worry of lifespan and can be passed down forever.

What makes Jiang Tongyue even more excited is that once he rewards this late Nascent Soul stage puppet to his disciple, the system will be able to return him a puppet of at least the late Spirit Transformation stage.

Just thinking about it made Jiang Tongyue feel very excited.

A puppet of the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation! In the human world today, not to mention the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation, even the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation may not be possessed.

Of course, nothing in the world is absolute. It all depends on whether those Jin Dynasty cultivators in the Jin Dynasty can successfully advance to the middle stage of the Jin Dynasty.

However, even if he advanced to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, Jiang Tongyue was no longer worried.

Jiang Tongyue brought the late Nascent Soul puppet that he had just refined to Xin Ruyin's residence, ready to give it as a reward to Xin Ruyin.

Among Jiang Tongyue's disciples, Han Li and Mo Yuzhu are the most powerful, followed by Mo Caihuan, Xiao Cui'er and others, while Xin Ruyin is the weakest.

Because Xin Ruyin had been immersed in the art of formation and had no time to practice various magical powers and powerful secret techniques, and was not interested in them.

Of course, this does not mean that Xin Ruyin is really weak. If Xin Ruyin is prepared in advance and the formation is set up, even Jiang Tongyue will suffer a great loss.

This is what formation masters do. They only need to set up various formations, while ordinary cultivators have to consider many things.

"Ruyin, this is the Nascent Soul puppet that I just refined. Its combat power is not inferior to that of ordinary late Nascent Soul cultivators. As long as you have enough spirit stones, it can keep fighting. I'll leave it to you to use for self-defense."

After seeing Xin Ruyin, Jiang Tongyue directly took out the late Nascent Soul puppet that he had just refined and handed it to Xin Ruyin.

"Master, this..."

Xin Ruyin looked at the late Nascent Soul puppet that Jiang Tongyue handed over, her eyes filled with shock.

She didn't expect that her master could actually refine a puppet in the late Nascent Soul stage.

Xin Ruyin, who practiced the Dayan Jue, also knew that refining a puppet in the late Nascent Soul stage required all kinds of extremely precious materials.

Even, it was still unclear whether some precious materials could be gathered. She had never expected that her master would reward her with the late Nascent Soul puppet that he had worked so hard to refine.

"Okay, you know my temper, take this puppet quickly, or I will be angry."

After Jiang Tongyue turned the puppet around, he put his hands behind his back and looked at Xin Ruyin with some displeasure.

"Yes, Master. I won't be polite then."

Hearing this, a happy smile broke out on Xin Ruyin's face, and she put the late Nascent Soul puppet into her storage bag.

"By the way, Ruyin, I wonder how you are doing with the formation book I gave you earlier?"

Seeing this, Jiang Tongyue smiled again, and then began to ask Xin Ruyin.

"Master, that formation book is very profound. Even if I study it day and night, I have only comprehended a small part of it. Without a hundred years, I am afraid I will not be able to fully comprehend this formation book."

Xin Ruyin, who was usually calm and composed, now showed a rare look of distress, as if she was a little embarrassed.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, Ruyin. With your current strength, the human world is so vast that you can go anywhere. No one can stop you, so take your time with the formation book."

Jiang Tongyue said to Xin Ruyin that he didn't want his disciples to have too much pressure because of this formation book.

In fact, even with Xin Ruyin's current understanding of the formation, he is already able to use the Xutian Map returned by the system to break the restrictions of the Xutian Palace and take control of the Xutian Palace.

However, Jiang Tongyue planned to wait until the Xutian Palace was opened before considering taking control of the Xutian Palace.

Jiang Tongyue planned to reward his disciples with the spirit stone mines in Xutian Palace and Biling Island after he broke through to the Spirit Transformation Stage.

In this way, the quality and level of the spiritual stone veins of Xutian Palace and Biling Island will be higher after being returned.

However, several years ago, Jiang Tongyue had asked Han Li to go to the far west to search for the soul of Lord Dayan.

The soul of Lord Dayan is already too weak, and he needs the Soul-Nourishing Tree, one of the three sacred trees in the world of immortal cultivation, to nourish his soul.

Therefore, Jiang Tongyue planned to go to the Xutian Palace first, get the Soul-Nourishing Wood, and give it directly to Han Li.

"Yes, Master, I understand."

Listening to Jiang Tongyue's words, Xin Ruyin nodded obediently.

"Okay, Ruyin, you should have a good rest first. I'm leaving first." Jiang Tongyue reached out and rubbed Xin Ruyin's head. After leaving a word, he turned and left Xin Ruyin's mansion.

On the way back, Jiang Tongyue looked at the introduction of the Spirit Transformation Stage puppet that had been returned earlier.

The previous puppet, which was in the late Nascent Soul stage, was returned to Jiang Tongyue in the form of a puppet in the late God Transformation stage after the system returned it a hundred times.

This puppet in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm is extremely powerful, with outstanding attack and defense. Even a cultivator in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, without a top-level killing treasure, cannot break through the defense of this puppet in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Moreover, the attack of this puppet in the late stage of Spirit Transformation is also amazing. If one does not have top-level defensive treasures, he will not be able to defend against it at all.

Of course, although this puppet in the late stage of transformation of the spirit is capable of both offense and defense, its consumption of spirit stones is also very alarming.

Even high-level spirit stones cannot last for a short while before the spiritual energy is exhausted. Only the spiritual energy in the top-level spirit stones can allow this puppet in the late stage of the Spiritual Transformation to fight for a long time.

Fortunately, Jiang Tongyue didn't have much other things in his hands, but he had plenty of top-level spirit stones, so he was not afraid of the consumption of this puppet in the late stage of Spirit Transformation.

"It seems that my plan can be changed. I am going to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage ahead of time."

Jiang Tongyue originally planned to stay in the late Nascent Soul stage for a few hundred years. After all, after breaking through to the Spirit Transformation stage, he would be restricted by the thin vitality of the human world. Every time he exerted his full strength, it would consume his lifespan.

And now that Jiang Tongyue has such a puppet in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he doesn't need to take any action at all, and naturally he doesn't need to stay in the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

If you break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage sooner, the system's return multiples can also be increased sooner.

If other cultivators knew what Jiang Tongyue was thinking, they would definitely be shocked. Most cultivators cannot break through to the Nascent Soul stage in their lifetime, let alone the Spiritual Transformation stage.

But for Jiang Tongyue, breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Stage only requires having hands. How can they not be envious?

There is no other way. Jiang Tongyue is a wall-climbing expert, and he uses a system cheat, and it is a system cheat that is rewarded for teaching his disciples. If his cultivation speed is slow, wouldn't it be a waste of this system cheat?
After returning to his mansion, Jiang Tongyue entered the secret room for practice, took out the sixth-grade lotus platform and the golden spirit bead and began to practice.

With the help of these two treasures, Jiang Tongyue's cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds. In less than a few years, he was able to cultivate to the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage.

By then, Jiang Tongyue will be able to go into seclusion and advance to the realm of spiritual transformation.

After Jiang Tongyue had been in seclusion for several months, Han Li finally returned to the Chaos Star Sea. He successfully found the soul of Dayan God and brought it back to Xinghai Island.

After learning the news, Jiang Tongyue did not continue to retreat, but came out to meet the Great Yan Divine Lord.

"Master, the spirit of Senior Dayan Divine Lord is now in this blessed cave."

After seeing Jiang Tongyue, Han Li took off a yellow bamboo tube from his back and spoke to Jiang Tongyue.

Recalling this journey to the Far West, Han Li still felt a little scared and angry. If he had not been a cautious person and had not been informed of a lot of information by his master in advance, he would probably have been tricked by Lord Dayan.

Who could have thought that Lord Dayan, who had fallen thousands of years ago, although had lost his physical body, his soul was so strong that it was almost as strong as that of a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage!

"Junior Jiang Tongyue greets Senior Dayan Divine Lord."

Jiang Tongyue had a gentle expression. He clasped his hands together and bowed towards the Dongfutian in Han Li's hand.

This Dongfutian is also a magical cave treasure. There is another cave world inside it. The puppet possessed by the soul of Dayan God is stored inside Dongfutian.

"From what Han said, it was you who asked me to go to the far west to look for my soul. I am here to thank you. However, your soul is stronger than mine, comparable to that of a cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm. This is really surprising."

A defiant and slightly surprised voice came from the yellow bamboo tube in Han Li's hand.

Jiang Tongyue in front of him, although his cultivation is only in the late Nascent Soul stage, the magic power in his body is extremely strong, dozens of times more than what he had in the beginning!
What is even more surprising is that Jiang Tongyue's soul is several times stronger than his even after he practiced the Dayan Jue!
"Senior, you are too kind. If I hadn't practiced the Great Evolution Technique created by you, my soul would be at most equivalent to the level of a cultivator in the early stage of the Spiritualization Stage."

Hearing the praise from Lord Dayan, Jiang Tongyue just waved his hand modestly.

“I really don’t know whether you are being modest or arrogant, but the Great Evolution Art that I passed down to you seems to only have the first four levels. It is impossible for your soul to be so powerful.”

The corner of Dayan God's mouth twitched as he listened to Jiang Tongyue's words. Then he stopped dwelling on the topic and asked curiously.

"This is naturally due to hard work and sweat. It is because of Jiang's hard work that he is what he is today."

Jiang Tongyue looked extremely calm in response to the question from Lord Dayan.

The reason why he can achieve what he has today, apart from a little insignificant help from the system, is all due to his hard work and sweat.

"Tell me, why did you ask Han to travel thousands of miles to the Far West to bring back my soul? What's the matter?"

Seeing that Jiang Tongyue was unwilling to elaborate, Dayan Divine Lord didn't care and asked Jiang Tongyue directly.

Jiang Tongyue asked Han Li to go to the far west to find his trace and let him see the light of day again. No matter what, he owed Jiang Tongyue a favor.

"That's right. I think Lord Dayan can deduce the higher level Dayan Jue and the method of refining a puppet in the God Transformation Stage."

Seeing Lord Dayan asking, Jiang Tongyue no longer hesitated and directly stated his needs.

A scientific research talent like Lord Dayan should be allowed to deduce the higher level of Dayan Jue and the true solution of puppets day and night.

“Hmm? Speaking of which, although you let Han go to the Far West so that I could see the light of day again, this little favor doesn’t seem to be enough for you to command me.”

After hearing Jiang Tongyue's words, Dayan God in Dongfutian couldn't help but frown and asked back with a hint of anger.

"Of course. Senior created the miraculous technique of Dayan Jue ten thousand years ago. I have nothing but respect for you. This is just a plea from you."

Facing the question from Lord Dayan, Jiang Tongyue remained calm and continued to speak with a gentle expression.

“Having said that, I’m afraid I am powerless to deduce a higher level of Great Evolution Jue, or even a Spiritualization Stage Puppet.”

Seeing Jiang Tongyue's attitude, Dayan God felt much calmer and the anger in his tone also dissipated.
