Demonic Demoness Training Project

Given Lu Li's cultivation level and mastery of the Puppet Dao, if she were to refine this kind of second-stage spirit core, its quality would definitely be even better. Usually, spirit cores produced under such circumstances would have the words "True Inheritance" added to their names.

Regardless of quality or grade, every spirit core has its corresponding audience. If the Chamber of Commerce wants to dominate the market, it cannot only produce high-grade spirit cores. It needs to have high-quality, high-priced luxury products, as well as second-grade products with high cost-performance ratios.

Talking about quality without considering cost and output is just being dishonest. Besides, what kind of decent person would hire a cultivator at the Creation Realm to mass-produce second-stage spirit cores?

That's unrealistic, and Lu Li doesn't have the time for that either. That's exactly what Ouyang Hao was worried about.

The sample that Luli gave him was of such high quality that he was afraid she was just trying to fool him with hand-rubbed products, and that the quality of the mass-produced products would decline and fail to meet his standards in the future.

In fact, before coming here, Lu Li had already had a miniature production line set up. This water spirit core was refined using the production line, and several sample components were initially produced.

Lu Li didn't try to deceive people by showing off the water spirit cores she had refined, because it wouldn't make much sense. There's a big difference between refining by high-level cultivators and mass refining by the Yanzhen (a type of magical array). The latter might be of slightly lower quality, but it can be mass-produced.

This slewing formation, obtained by exchanging the Blessing Return to the Void Seal Diagram, is quite remarkable. Its system is complete, and as long as a spirit is present, it can control the production line in batches, producing components of extremely high quality.

This skill is unique; not only does the Lingxi Sect not possess it, but the Hecheng Chamber of Commerce is also mostly unable to match it.

Ouyang Hao was sent by the middle-level forces to oversee the branch. He knew the situation in the middle-level forces best. Even with the technology of the middle-level forces, they could not guarantee the mass production of second-level spirit cores of this quality, let alone Lu Li.

After realizing the other party's doubts, Lu Li explained:

"Don't worry, I have more than 500 puppeteers under my command. Each puppeteer team is led by a master puppeteer at the Open Source Realm. We can definitely maintain this quality in the future."

Lu Li spoke without hesitation, and Zhuge Jin and Hong Xian couldn't help but chuckle to themselves upon hearing it.

Where did these 500 people come from?

Where did this open-source master come from?

Ouyang Hao smiled awkwardly, clearly still somewhat skeptical. He carefully considered his words, trying to think of a way to politely refuse Lu Li.

Before Ouyang Hao could speak, Lu Li immediately covered his mouth with her tongue.

"How about this: next month, in addition to transporting the components we mentioned earlier, we'll also bring over a hundred spirit cores. If you're satisfied with the quality, we'll increase production in the future. If not, then they're ours."

"Alright, since you've put it that way, I'll gladly accept your offer. However, I have one more question."

"what?"

"Could you tell me, young lady, who your backer is? Is it the Fire Cloud Sect? Or one of the other two? Or perhaps the Unifying Immortal Sect?"

The Fire Cloud Sect that Ouyang Hao mentioned was naturally one of the three major sects that occupied the Baiyi River Basin. Lu Li had been pretending all along, pretending that his source of goods came from the Boundless Realm of the Crimson Child.

Therefore, the first thing that comes to mind is the three major sects, followed by the Tongxian Sect.

Lu Li subtly stuffed a slice of fairy pear into her mouth, raising an eyebrow.

"What? You want to treat this differently?"

"No, no, no, a hero's origins are irrelevant. If you don't want to tell me, then don't."

At this moment, Lu Ling suddenly said:

"Sister, I suddenly discovered something. According to the Heavenly Observation, the Hecheng Chamber of Commerce and the Tongxian Sect fought a battle in the middle reaches of the river some time ago."

"Wow, is that true?"

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Lu Li has a grudge against the Tongxian Sect, and the Hecheng Chamber of Commerce happens to be at odds with the Tongxian Sect. This is undoubtedly good news for Lu Li.

This news is so timely.

Although Lu Li didn't think she was good at business, fortunately, during the negotiations, the spirit connected with Xuan Shutian to help her collect information. If she didn't understand something, she could ask Lu Ling, so at least in front of others she could appear to be very knowledgeable.

So, Lu Li immediately said:

"Anyway, it's not from the Tongxian Sect, I can guarantee that, and I can write it in the Dao Oath."

In general, for large transactions like this, both parties need to sign an oath to bind their behavior and prevent one party from cheating.

In previous transactions, Hong Xian had made no fewer than five Dao oaths. It was precisely because of these oaths that the other party dared to do business with Lu Li, a rogue cultivator of unknown origin.

Afterwards, both parties made a vow, which included keeping the contents confidential, and Ouyang Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Li asked the question knowingly:

"What, you have a grudge against the Tongxian Sect?"

"Hey, it's all because of that new leader of the Tongxian Sect. He's been too arrogant, relying on his Creation Realm cultivation. But whatever, next month, the main headquarters will be sending people over, and then I'll be the deputy leader."

Ouyang Hao complained that the main headquarters had sent a powerful figure to demote him from leader to deputy leader. Ouyang Hao was understandably angry, but he had no other choice. Lu Li chuckled, realizing that this matter was related to her.

After the Venerable One and the Dharma King fell one after another, True Lord Tuihuo, in a fit of anger, dispatched a Heavenly Craftsmanship Realm cultivator to oversee the two major river basins of Liubao River and Baiyi River.

"By the way, Master Ouyang, does your Hecheng Chamber of Commerce have any methods for long-distance communication?"

"Remote communication? How far? We have special sound transmission stones that can transmit messages over a hundred miles."

Lu Li thought to herself, "What good is a hundred-mile communication tool?" What Lu Li wanted was something like the "Disparity Heaven," preferably a Spirit Core with the "Disparity in Territory" suffix. But she didn't say it directly to avoid arousing suspicion about her identity.

"Ideally, it should be able to transmit messages over thousands of miles."

"Then we must connect to the Heaven of Disparity."

"Yes, it's the Heaven of Disparity. I wonder if the leader has any connections?"

"It's no big deal. I'll apply to the higher-ups right away and send people over to build the Heavenly Pavilion for you."

"No, no, no, that's not necessary."

"Well, the price is negotiable. With your financial resources, it won't cost you many spirit stones to reach the Fifth Rank Heavenly Pavilion, maybe three to five hundred thousand."

After so many transactions, Ouyang Hao felt that Lu Li must be very rich.

The on-site installation service is very convenient, but this is not a matter of spirit stones at all. If Zhongyou sends people down to help her build the Heavenly Pavilion, it means that she will expose the matter of the Boundless Realm of Yu Zhe. Compared to on-site installation, Lu Li still prefers to buy a Heavenly Pavilion and install it herself.

Chapter 325 Lu'er Wants to Write a Song Titled "On Loving Pears"

"If I had the blueprint for the Heavenly Pavilion, I could build and install it myself."

“Yan Tu, the Heavenly Pavilion only needs a fourth-level Spirit Core as its core. This core is probably difficult to refine and requires extremely high Soul Dao attainments. If you are willing to buy it directly, it should save you a lot of trouble.”

"No problem, Chief Ouyang, just name your price."

"Hmm... The Heavenly Pavilion's Scroll is worth about 110,000 spirit stones, but given our cooperative relationship, I can round it down to 100,000 spirit stones. Can you handle the spirit materials?"

"Just provide all the necessary items for me. How many spirit stones would that cost?"

"Yes, it adds up to about 200,000 spirit stones, including all the spirit materials needed to build the Heavenly Pavilion, as well as three sets of spirit materials needed to refine the Spirit Core."

"Yes, it's alright."

The price was much cheaper than Lu Li had imagined. After all, a three-turn nine-type spirit core would cost 30,000 to 50,000 spirit stones, while the Yan Tu and spirit materials together only cost 300,000.

It seems that the main selling point for spirit cores is the processing fee and technology, while the cost of spirit materials is only a small part.

“Miss You, let me make this clear first: if you have no prior experience in refining spirit cores, even with a diagram for reference and three sets of spirit materials, you may not be able to succeed.”

"I know that. If it doesn't work, then we can talk about it. Besides, I didn't make it myself; someone else will make it for me."

After several attempts to persuade Lu Li, Ouyang Hao, seeing that Lu Li remained unmoved, simply laid his cards on the table.

"Actually, I still recommend that you buy directly, as it's more convenient. If you buy directly, we can provide a fourth-to-fifth type spirit core, but if it's a yantu, we'll give you one below the fourth type."

Even relatively enlightened forces like the Hecheng Chamber of Commerce have monopolized the technology downstream. They keep the advanced models of the Spirit Core in their own hands and will not easily hand them over to outsiders.

Over the next half hour, the two sides discussed specific matters, including a confidentiality agreement for the Yantu and a prohibition on secondary sales.

In addition, Lu Li also purchased all the spiritual materials needed to upgrade and set up the medium-sized sculpted array.

In the end, a total of 800,000 spirit stones were spent, and the little savings he had were once again completely depleted.

At this moment, the thousand-year-old immortal pear on the plate was eaten by Lu Li. The pear flesh was sweet and left a refreshing fragrance in the mouth after eating it.

The fragrance lingered for a long time and possessed a miraculous effect, making people feel refreshed and their consciousness extremely active. It even increased the speed of the Great Dream Pivot's operation by 30%.

This isn't just a placebo effect; the operating speed has genuinely increased by 30%.

Lu Li silently commented on this in her heart.

"What you eat is a pear, but it can affect your spiritual senses. This is somewhat similar to the Soul-Returning Pear. According to the Hecheng Chamber of Commerce's promotion, this effect can last for three days before gradually fading away."

"Some cultivators even buy thousand-year-old immortal pears to consume before deducing the creation of magical artifacts, in order to improve the speed and success rate of their deductions."

"I've long heard that the Thousand-Year Immortal Pear is delicious and highly nutritious, but I couldn't bear to buy it in the past. Today, I finally have the chance to taste it, and it truly lives up to its reputation."

"It's a pity...it's a pity there's only one."

Lu Li sighed inwardly, silently placing this thousand-year-old immortal pear at the top of her must-eat list of immortal pears.

At this moment, Lu Li only regretted that he was too ignorant to compose a poem to express his love and longing for the thousand-year-old immortal pear.

Lu Li had already thought of a name: "Love Pear Says," but seeing that Lu Ling was still sorting through intelligence and deducing matters, Lu Li didn't want to disturb her and could only give up.

Lu Li and the others arrived at the Chamber of Commerce at noon, and two hours passed in the blink of an eye. As the sun set, Ouyang Hao tried to persuade them to stay.

"Miss You, why don't you stay? I've prepared some food."

"Thank you for your kindness, Master. I have other matters to attend to later, so I will be leaving now."

"Very well, then let's talk another day. I hope you will take this with you, as it is a small token of my appreciation."

As he spoke, Ouyang Hao waved his hand, and two maids each brought forward a large pear. Immediately, Lu Ling's voice echoed in his mind:

"Oh, oh, oh! Sis, this is your favorite thousand-year-old fairy pear!"

"So-and-so said I love to eat it."

"Maybe they noticed you like this, so they specially sent you two."

Is it that obvious?

"But you ate everything on your plate before."

"I didn't mean to..."

Lu Li politely declined, but the helmsman was so enthusiastic that she had no choice but to accept it reluctantly.

"What did I tell you?"

What did you say?

"As long as you have a high enough status, sooner or later someone will come to give you gifts. As long as you stand high enough, let alone a thousand-grade pear, even a legendary ten-thousand-year-old immortal pear, people will fight to give it to you."

……

After doing all this, Lu Li led Hong Xian and the others back the way they came without stopping.

As mentioned above, she recorded the diagrams of the Heavenly Pavilion and the Four Transformations and Four Types of Spirit Cores into her sea of ​​consciousness, and with Lu Ling's help, she deduced them no less than twenty times.

The round trip took seven days and seven nights. Lu Li only brought eight puppets with her, leaving the rest, including Mu Sixian, in the Boundless Realm so that they could familiarize themselves with and manipulate the puppet formations and refine puppet armor.

Mu Sixian is now at the Creation Realm, and her mastery of puppetry far surpasses that of other puppets. After Lu Li returned to the Boundless Realm, not only were twenty sets of puppet armor completed, but Mu Sixian and the others also practiced for three days and became basically familiar with the operation of the puppet formation.

This was beyond Lu Li's expectations. She had prepared herself mentally, thinking that it would take Mu Sixian and the others at least two or three months to master the formation.

Having fewer people also has its advantages. For example, the Yan Clan of the Azure Vein often has hundreds or thousands of people in their Yan Formation, which is extremely difficult to command and quite complicated to train. However, Lu Li currently only has so many people, so training them is naturally much easier.

After Luli's examination, it was found that there were basically no major problems.

Subsequently, Lu Li organized manpower to have Hong Xian and others who accompanied her practice the puppet formation, while also having those puppets who had already mastered the puppet formation upgrade the production line, transforming the miniature puppet formations on the production line into medium-sized puppet formations.

Three days later, Hong Xian and the others also mastered the slewing formation and immediately joined the work of setting up the slewing formation.

As for the previously agreed-upon four-day work week and three-day weekend... they all volunteered to work overtime, especially since Lu Li had recently received 10% of the profits as a bonus and paid triple overtime pay, which boosted the morale of all the puppets.

With prior experience and so many people to help, Lu Li completed the medium-sized siege formation in just seven days.

Then, they used the medium-sized sculpted array to produce components and build the Heavenly Pavilion. Meanwhile, Lu Li worked non-stop to begin refining the Spirit Core.

Chapter 326 The Silly Roe Deer Nobody Cares About

The plan for the Shangtian Pavilion that Ouyang Hao gave to Lu Li was extremely large, built entirely according to the standards of a lower-level sect, almost on par with the Shangtian Pavilion of Baiyue Palace back then.

Lu Li was deeply impressed by this; the Heavenly Pavilion of the White Moon Palace had a total of seven floors, and the signal was better the higher you went.

Back when she first became an inner disciple, she had to queue at the Heavenly Pavilion every day. The Little Suspended Heaven Realm of the White Moon Palace was attacked by the Azure Sun Palace every few days, so the signal was extremely unstable.

It was only after becoming a saintess that Lu Li was able to enter the upper echelons of the Heavenly Pavilion, and this situation improved.

In reality, she had no need for the seven-story Shangtian Pavilion.

On her way back, Lu Li deduced the layout of the Shangtian Pavilion. She completely preserved the core magic array of the Shangtian Pavilion, but took out the fourth to sixth floors of the layout separately and simplified them slightly, temporarily building only a three-story Shangtian Pavilion.

This process is simplified from complex to simple, only changing the structure and scale of the lower-level private rooms without altering the core magic array, so it is not a difficult task.
