Martial Arts Sainthood Begins with the Tiger-Taming Fist

Chapter 121 Chen Mo's First Puppet Beast

Chen Mo tore off his clothes and used them to bandage the wound.

Afterwards, he left this place, found a secluded spot, sat down quietly, and practiced the Turtle Breathing Technique and the Tai Chen Ying Huo Chapter.

The next morning, he collected some morning dew and found some cicada shells to complete his daily tasks of cultivating his spiritual practice in the mountains and waters.

Then he got up and wandered around.

He kept the Thousand Machine Technique in mind.

Could we find a spirit that is neither too big nor too weak to practice with?

Just as he was pondering this, a flying insect swept overhead.

He looked up and saw a giant dragonfly with tiger-stripes on its head.

"A tiger-headed dragonfly?"

After a moment's thought, he suddenly stood up, used his Luo Yan Steps to chase after him.

In the blink of an eye, his muscular figure had already darted in front of his opponent, and a large hand covered his path.

Although the tiger-headed dragonfly was of low intelligence, it had a good sense of danger and was exceptionally agile in flight. It immediately flapped its wings and slightly deviated from its path, thus avoiding Chen Mo's ambush.

In the next three rounds, Chen Mo failed to win each time.

On the fifth occasion, he drew his sword and unleashed a shockwave that caused his opponent to stagger, before raising his hand to collect him in his palm.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that the tiger-headed dragonfly was about half the size of a palm, and a poisonous needle was protruding from its mouth.

"If I hadn't been careful just now, I would probably have been stung and poisoned."

Chen Mo gathered his energy slightly, and his palm unleashed a burst of force, knocking him unconscious.

I began to think about what to do with this thing.

Although he doesn't know how to find ebony wood right now, and his comprehension of the Thousand Machine Technique hasn't improved at all, this technique is different from other martial arts and requires a very high threshold of martial arts foundation.

It only requires understanding the patterns in the manual to produce the finished product; the only difference is the quality.

Having studied mechanical principles at a prestigious university in his previous life, Chen Mo had gained some basic understanding of the Thousand Machines Technique after reviewing it once.

This tiger-headed dragonfly only requires the basic skills of the Thousand Machine Technique.

"The tiger-headed dragonfly is characterized by its agility and venomous stinger, making it suitable as a scout or for surprise attacks."

With this in mind, Chen Mo began to take action.

Following the instructions in the first two pages of the first chapter of the Thousand Machine Technique, he drained the dark green blood from the tiger-headed dragonfly.

Then he dripped a drop of his own blood into her body.

After completing this step, he concentrated his mind, then flipped his palm and used a unique method to infuse the tiger-headed dragonfly with a trace of his intention.

Having reached this point, we are more than halfway there.

Then, hardwood and metal were used to reinforce its outer shell.

Chen Mo stretched his body.

After two hours, a well-made automaton was completed.

Although small, the sparrow has all the vital organs; though not exquisite, it is still quite small.

He made a few strange hand gestures at the tiger-headed dragonfly, and the dragonfly followed suit, flapping its wings and flying into the air.

He thought to himself, "If I inject a potent poison into its needles, its attack power will be greatly enhanced."

"This is only the first chapter of the Thousand Machine Puppet Technique. If one practices the last few chapters, it seems that one can transmit the vision of the puppet beast back to the master."

""

It means having a second pair of eyes!

"If one masters the Thousand Machine Technique, the created puppet beast will be like a battle partner."

He was immediately filled with boundless anticipation.

After packing the tiger-headed dragonfly beast into the package, I embarked on my journey home.

There are still two days left before the deadline to leave Fenglei Valley, so we can proceed at our own pace.

Along the way, he never forgot to collect morning dew and practice the Turtle Breathing Technique. In addition, he also did not neglect the study of the Fire Separation Technique and the Tai Chen Ying Huo Chapter.

The next day, relying on his accurate memory of the map, he entered a place marked with strange beasts and indeed encountered a beast that resembled a mandrill.

After six or seven rounds of fighting, he easily killed his opponent and, with great luck, obtained the beast core from its body.

Put the beast core into the package.

Chen Mo felt somewhat relieved.

With this beast core, he could finally explain the scars left on his arms by the cyborg monster. Otherwise, he wasn't sure if he could hide the existence of the cyborgs in Wind and Thunder Valley from Elder Jinwu.

At present, the origin of that mysterious woman is still unclear, and how she moves freely in and out of Fenglei Valley?

However, Fenglei Valley seems to have undergone significant changes in recent years.

Chen Mo decided to keep the matter of the Yan people a secret for the time being.

"At least let's find out what Elder Jinwu has to say first."

After thinking it over, Chen Mo wandered around some more before slowly making his way to the entrance of Wind and Thunder Valley.

The next morning, the first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon.

Chen Mo picked some wild fruit to fill his stomach. The entrance to Fenglei Valley was not far away, and he could vaguely see several figures standing there.

"Brother Chen!"

Du Tian called out from afar.

When Chen Mo walked up to everyone, they were surprised to see the blood-soaked bandages on his arms.

This guy who could kill the Blazing Wolf is actually injured?

Zhu Xiaoyan and Zhique walked up to Chen Mo, their brows furrowed as they looked at his injured arm.

Du Tian asked with concern, "Brother Chen Mo, the injury on your arm—"

Chen Mo shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing. I was fighting with a strange beast and was scratched by it."

Upon hearing this, the others remained outwardly calm, but inwardly they felt a sense of balance.

It seems he wasn't an omnipotent genius after all.

Compared to themselves, they only had an extra bit of luck that was just enough to cultivate the Tai Chen Ying Huo Chapter?

"It's fortunate that nothing serious happened!" Du Tian said.

Then, Chen Mo took out the beast core and handed it to Elder Jinwu, saying, "Fortunately, the other party isn't in much better shape either."

Seeing this, everyone's inner balance was once again shattered.

Is this what they mean by "the other party isn't much better"?

The other party's situation was absolutely bizarre!

Elder Jinwu accepted the beast core and nodded slightly. "Although it is a low-level alien beast, it is quite good that it can kill alien beasts on its own."

After receiving Elder Jinwu's affirmation, Chen Mo remained calm and showed no signs of emotion.

Seeing his calm demeanor, Du Tian got used to it and grinned with pride.

"alright."

Elder Jinwu scanned the area with his eagle eyes before abruptly withdrawing them. "Now that everyone has arrived, the Wind and Thunder Valley training is over. We have obtained five beast cores in total. I have recorded the contributions of each person. I will inform the Elder Council upon returning to Linzhi Peak, and compensation will be provided accordingly."

The group left Wind and Thunder Valley.

As soon as we stepped out of the valley, we felt the lush greenery all around us, and the originally chilly air became warm and comfortable.

The group arrived at Chengyun Pavilion on Linzhi Peak.

Elder Jinwu kept several disciples who had contributed beast cores behind.

Besides Chen Mo, there were also Zhi Que and others. During her last two days of wandering, she and two others joined forces to kill a low-level alien beast.

Elder Jinwu said, "Follow me to the Treasure Pavilion on Zhengyang Peak, where the steward elder will decide what to give you."

Several people looked at each other.

"The Treasure Pavilion?! I've heard it's where all the treasures of Nine Swords Mountain are kept, and it costs fifty taels of silver per visit!"

One of them looked expectant.

Chen Mo's face brightened slightly.

He quietly touched the package, which contained Elder Yan Tan's letter of introduction, and thought to himself, "Why not go and take up the post directly?"
