Battle Through the Heavens: The Beginning of the Dou Sheng Inheritance

Chapter 94 Earth Demon Puppet

The instant the soul turned into points of light, the demonic core resting on its chest emitted a faint buzzing sound. Then, bursts of violent energy surged forth from it like a rushing lake, finally flowing along the meridians of the body.

With the changes in the soul and the demon core, the gray-white color on the surface of the body became increasingly intense, and the size of the entire body was slowly shrinking. A powerful aura, devoid of any emotion, slowly emanated from the corpse.

Sensing the aura that was comparable to that of a four- or five-star Dou Zong expert, Yao Lao moved his hand, and the dark golden liquid that was floating in front of him slowly floated out and finally poured onto the cold corpse.

laugh!laugh!

The extremely hot molten metal dripped onto the corpse, immediately bursting into white mist and emitting a faint smoky smell, but the skin that came into contact with the solution showed no signs of damage.

After a series of refinements, the puppet's physical strength has now reached a formidable level.

Soul power swept across the puppet's body like ripples on water, while the dark golden solution was slowly applied to every part of its body.

For a moment, a foul-smelling white mist continuously emanated from the puppet's body, and the hissing sound produced when the high temperature came into contact with the skin was quite eerie.

When the solution was completely applied to the puppet's body, its cold, grayish-white color was replaced by a dark gold, which shimmered and gave it an extremely solid and strange feel.

With a glance at the puppet whose body was covered in the solution, Yao Lao let out a soft breath. Then, with a wave of his sleeve, a pale white flame surged out again, enveloping the puppet completely, and the terrifying high temperature slowly seeped out.

As the high temperature continued to scorch, the dark golden solution began to slowly erode into the puppet's skin. As this erosion intensified, the puppet's body gradually turned dark blue, vaguely resembling a block of copper.

According to the bamboo slips, the Heavenly Demon Puppets are divided into three grades: Heaven, Earth, and Human. The best way to distinguish these three grades is to observe their skin color: Heaven is gold, Earth is silver, and Human is bronze. The color displayed by this puppet is clearly the last grade among the three, no wonder Elder Yao is somewhat dissatisfied.

Although somewhat disappointed, Yao Lao did not stop the flames from scorching the puppet. The terrifying high temperature continued to seep out, slowly penetrating the dark golden solution into the puppet's skin and withered muscles.

The so-called method of refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet is to use these metal materials to modify the strength of a person's body. If it were a living person, they would probably explode and die on the spot if they were to be subjected to this.

However, since this puppet is painless and unaware of pain, it can ignore this unparalleled agony. Therefore, if it is successfully crafted, although the puppet does not understand combat techniques, its physical body alone would be the most perfect killing weapon.

As the dark golden solution was gradually absorbed by the puppet, suddenly, a few silver lights flashed on its pale blue skin.

As the silver light flashed, the aura emanating from the puppet gradually increased!

This transformation took only about ten seconds. Then, the dark blue puppet turned into a shimmering silver light. Although there was still a faint blue light shining within the silver light, it was almost negligible compared to the large-scale silver light.

When the silver light reached its peak, it stopped completely, and its rising momentum also came to an abrupt halt. Then, the silver light slowly dimmed, as if all the light had seeped into the puppet's body.

Although the silver light had dimmed, Yao Lao could sense that the puppet's aura had not weakened in the slightest. Clearly, the dissipation of the silver light was just a small trick to prevent the puppet from being too conspicuous.

Amidst the pale white flames, the puppet slowly straightened its body, then stood motionless in mid-air without any support, its eyes filled with empty blackness.

The old apothecary called out, "Xiao Jue!"

Xiao Jue lightly bit the tip of his tongue, and a drop of blood containing a trace of the soul's imprint slowly floated out, finally landing precisely on the puppet's forehead, slowly infiltrating and eventually turning into a dark red blood spot the size of a thumb.

As the drop of blood entered the puppet's brain without hindrance, leaving an indelible mark, a faint glimmer of life slowly appeared in the puppet's black, empty eyes.

Twisting her still somewhat stiff neck, she looked down at Xiao Jue not far away, then placed her feet on the ground, knelt on one knee, and slowly lowered her head towards Xiao Jue.

Xiao Jue closed his eyes slightly. When his soul blood fell into the puppet's forehead earlier, he clearly felt that his soul was as if it had been divided into two parts, one part controlling himself and the other part controlling the puppet in front of him.

At this moment, he had a vague feeling that the puppet in front of him would obey any command he gave, even if the command was for it to attack Xiao Jue himself, it would probably launch an attack without hesitation.

Having been imprinted with a soul mark, this puppet would become Xiao Jue's closest bodyguard in the future, because it would never have a heart of betrayal.

His gaze was fixed on the kneeling Heavenly Demon Puppet before him, or perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it Earthly Demon Puppet, since this puppet had not yet reached the highest level recorded in the bamboo slips.

Even though it was just an Earth Demon Puppet, Xiao Jue was still quite satisfied. He could sense that the strength of this Earth Demon Puppet was probably no weaker than that of a five-star or even six-star Dou Zong expert.

Furthermore, if Xiao Jue refines a seventh-grade pill later, the Earth Demon Puppet will be further tempered, and when it evolves into the Heaven Demon Puppet, it will possess strength comparable to a Dou Zun.

The old doctor laughed and said, "The strength of a five or six-star Dou Zong is not bad. I just don't know how much this puppet can be tempered by absorbing the pill lightning."

"But most importantly, it can absorb the pill lightning to temper the puppet itself, which is equivalent to directly helping the alchemist resist the pill lightning." The old alchemist sighed, "If such a puppet were auctioned in Zhongzhou, I'm afraid some alchemists would be willing to offer an eighth-grade pill in exchange for it."

Xiao Jue put away the Earth Demon Puppet, grinned, and said, "Elder Yao, it's time to help me break through to the Dou Wang realm."
