Chapter 719 Upgrading puppets, the secret realm of the abyss!
After discussing the matters concerning the secret realm of the Immortal City with Honglian and Ling Zixiao, Lu Changsheng came to Qian Zhuyan's Puppet Hall.
The entire hall was very empty, with a pile of messy puppets of different sizes, spare parts, and several forging furnaces placed inside.
Qian Zhuyan was polishing an arm guard with a somewhat stiff posture.
"Lord."
Seeing Lu Changsheng coming, she shouted in a hoarse voice.
As a top-level puppet of the third rank, she does not need to eat or drink on a daily basis, so apart from sleeping over the years, she has been building puppets and studying puppetry in the palace.
Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, and said with a gentle smile: "Qianzhu, I have obtained some fourth-level materials during my trip, which may speed up your progress in becoming a fourth-level puppet."
In fact, to upgrade the materials for the fourth-order puppet, Lu Changsheng could gather them after coming out of the [Hansha Fantasy Realm] and cleaning out the storage rings of True Lord Zi Cang and True Lord Tian Can.
It’s just that if I make this kind of thing appear too simple, I’m afraid Qian Zhuyan will think it’s too easy.
Besides, he was not in a hurry to help the latter upgrade.
Now he is preparing to go to Xingxiu Sea, intending to let the Sea-Splitting Black Dragon Whale look after the house for a while, so he is thinking about improving his strength in other aspects.
In his opinion, Qian Zhuyan is a good choice.
The latter is a top-level third-order puppet. One person controls multiple third-order puppets to form a puppet battle formation. He is definitely the top existence below the Nascent Soul stage!
Even when facing Yuanying Zhenjun or the transformed demon king, he can fight for several rounds.
If she helped Qian Zhuyan to take a step further, she would form a puppet battle formation, which might be able to entangle the Nascent Soul cultivator for a while.
"Fourth-order puppet!"
When Qian Zhuyan heard this, the soul fire in his eyes began to burn and fluctuate.
Her lifelong wish is to be promoted to the fourth level and then take revenge.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Lu Changsheng obtained the fourth-level spiritual material.
"Take a look at these materials, see which ones are useful to you, and come up with an upgrade plan."
Lu Changsheng raised his hand slightly, and rays of crystal light flew out from the Qiankun Shadow Belt.
In addition to the spiritual materials of heaven and earth obtained from Lord Loushan, Lord Zicang, and Lord Tiancan in his early years, there are also a bunch of fourth-level materials such as the fourth-level dragon king hunted down in the past, the two-headed demonized lizard hunted in Wanmoyuan, etc.
The entire hall was instantly filled with precious light, and was filled with fourth-level spiritual materials, as well as the faint pressure of a fourth-level demon king.
"so much"
Qian Zhuyan looked at the spiritual materials of heaven and earth in front of him that looked like a treasure mountain, and the entire puppet was shocked.
She had put a lot of thought into collecting fourth-level rare spiritual materials.
But now, they are piling up like mountains as if they were free.
Not to mention upgrading himself to a fourth-order puppet, he could even forge another fourth-order puppet.
"Thank you, Lord!"
Qian Zhuyan immediately thanked him with joy, and then couldn't let go of the spiritual materials in front of him, analyzing the materials' conditions and characteristics, and thinking about how to upgrade themselves.
"After you are promoted to the fourth level, how confident are you in facing a Nascent Soul cultivator?"
Lu Changsheng asked Qian Zhuyan again.
Under normal circumstances, puppets are definitely no match for monks.
It can only be used to delay and consume some time of monks of the same level.
But Qian Zhuyan is not an ordinary puppet.
"If this puppet body is upgraded to the fourth level, it should be able to fight against the Nascent Soul cultivator for some time. But if you want to really fight and defeat him, you must upgrade the puppet spirit to the fourth level, and then create multiple puppets of the third level or above."
Qian Zhuyan had seen the methods of Yuanying cultivators and knew that even if he was promoted to the fourth level, he would not be a match for a Yuanying Zhenjun.
That's why he cooperated with others and submitted to Lu Changsheng.
However, once her soul and puppet spirit are promoted to the Nascent Soul level, she will be able to control more puppets and form a more powerful puppet battle formation, then she will have the confidence to fight against the Nascent Soul True Lord.
Just wanting to achieve this step is so difficult!
"Puppet spirit."
Lu Changsheng knew that the biggest difference between Qian Zhuyan and other puppets was that his soul turned into a puppet spirit, thus allowing him to perfectly control the puppet.
During this process, she can also improve her soul and puppet spirit like a cultivator.
However, the gap between the Jindan soul and the Yuanying soul is like a natural chasm.
Even if he had traded for a small piece of fourth-rank soul-nourishing wood before, and refined it into Qian Zhuyan's puppet's brain component to nourish her puppet spirit and soul at all times, it would still take at least a hundred years before she could be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.
"That's enough. Upgrade your puppet body. Try to control and assist it."
At present, Lu Changsheng’s combat power is enough to suppress many Nascent Soul cultivators in the early stage.
But the other party was determined to escape, so it was difficult for him to intercept him.
So I thought that Qian Zhuyan’s combat ability should be more control-oriented, so that he could help him intercept and interfere with the enemy.
At that time, he will attack from the front, while Qian Zhuyan and Jinchi Tianpeng can block the four directions and assist.
"Yes."
Qian Zhuyan immediately conceived an upgrade route according to the requirements put forward by Lu Changsheng.
During this process, Lu Changsheng also made some suggestions based on his knowledge of refining equipment.
For example, he had previously obtained a bunch of top-level magic weapons from True Lord Loushan and True Lord Zicang.
It is entirely possible to recast these magic weapons and assemble them on Qian Zhuyan to enhance her combat power and means.
Although this is a bit wasteful.
But now Lu Changsheng has no time to recast these magic weapons, and it would be a waste to just leave them there.
If Yangming Zhenren had not caused too much trouble before and was worried that these stolen goods would leak out and attract attention, he would have disposed of these magic weapons to the outside world long ago.
In this way, a man and a woman continued to discuss in the hall, thinking about the upgrade of the puppet.
At the same time, after Honglian and Ling Zixiao finalized the transformation plan for the secret realm of Damengze, they notified the Jindan cultivators of the four major immortal sects of Jiang Kingdom of the matter.
It means that this is just an ordinary Jindan-level secret realm and does not contain any rare resources, so it is planned to be used as a trial medicine garden secret realm and open to the four major immortal sects and the Jiang Kingdom cultivators.
The condition is that half of the harvest from the secret realm will be handed over to the Dameng Fairy City, hoping that the trial secret realms in the hands of the four major immortal sects can open up some places to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Upon hearing that there were no opportunities in the secret realm and that Dameng Fairy City was even willing to open up the secret realm to Jiang State in all aspects, the Jindan masters of the four major fairy gates suddenly lost interest.
However, they readily agreed to give their disciples an extra opportunity to hone their skills, but said they needed to report this to the sect.
"it is good."
Without waiting for a reply from the four major sects, Ling Zixiao took several formation masters, feng shui masters, spiritual plant masters, and Lu Ping'an to the Damengze secret realm for transformation.
After all, the secret realm was related to her son's chance of forming a golden core, so she naturally didn't want to delay it for too long and wanted to complete it as soon as possible.
Tianjian Sect.
"The Great Dream Fairy City is willing to open this secret realm. It seems that it intends to integrate into our Jiang Kingdom."
"In this case, it won't hurt to give Dameng Xiancheng a few places for the secret realm trials."
The four great sects of Jiang Kingdom are of the same blood, so matters like this mainly depend on the opinion of the Tianjian Sect.
The Tianjian Sect nodded, and the Qingyun Sect, Luoxia Sect, and Yuling Sect naturally could not refuse.
However, in the eyes of the leader of Tianjian Sect, Dameng Fairy City’s willingness to open up the secret realm was a friendly attitude, so he would naturally not refuse him.
However, True Lord Juejian had previously instructed that all matters concerning Dameng Fairy City should be reported to him, so he went to report.
"According to analysis, these two people will not stay in Jiang Country or Dameng Fairy City for long. Why do they need a place in the secret realm?"
True Lord Juejian raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat puzzled.
However, thinking that the city lord and his wife had a son, or maybe it was a favor, he didn't ask too much, and asked the Tianjian Sect Master: "Tiejian, have you heard any news about Qingluan Zhenjun in recent years?"
The Liangyue War is currently at a stalemate, and he received news that the war between the more distant Yuan Kingdom, Qiyun Kingdom, and Tianluo Sect has ended, and Qiyun Kingdom has been divided up between the Yuan Kingdom and the Tianluo Sect.
The Yuan Kingdom is preparing to fight to support the war and is currently infiltrating the Wu Kingdom. In the future, it is very likely to intervene in the Liang-Vietnam War through the Wu Kingdom.
Under such circumstances, it is impossible for their Jiang Kingdom to sit idly by and allow the Yuan Kingdom to attack the Yue Kingdom or the Liang Kingdom and break the balance.
But no matter how powerful his Jiang Kingdom is, there are only two Nascent Soul cultivators, him and True Lord Xuanjian, so he wants to invite True Lord Qingluan, with whom he had once reached an alliance, for help.
However, after leaving the Hansha Illusionary Realm, there was no news from True Lord Qingluan, not a single bit of information.
"Replying to Master, there has been no news from Master Qingluan in these years."
The leader of Tianjian Sect shook his head and said.
"Where is Yangming Zhenren?"
True Lord Jue Jian asked again.
Based on the pioneering war and the Hansha Fantasy Realm, we can know that Zhenren Yangming and Zhenjun Qingluan have a close relationship.
"Since the Hansha Fantasy Realm, there has been no news about Yangming Zhenren."
The Tianjian Sect Master continued to shake his head.
Not only are many forces in the Southern Wilderness and Northern Region paying attention to Master Yangming, but their Tianjian Sect has also been paying attention to Master Yangming.
"Ah."
True Lord Jue Jian nodded slightly, looking towards the direction of Dameng Fairy City with a calm and deep gaze, and murmured softly: "If there is really no other way, we can only go to Dameng Fairy City."
At the previous whale hunting banquet, he had a very pleasant conversation with the Lord of Dameng City, and the latter expressed his willingness to contribute to the State of Jiang to the best of his ability.
But if he had a choice, he would still trust True Lord Qingluan, who rose step by step from the Kingdom of Jiang and knew the ins and outs of the matter.
But now there is no news about True Lord Qingluan. If the Wu Kingdom is really infiltrated by the Yuan Kingdom and reaches a cooperation with the Liang Kingdom, then he can only invite the two mysterious city lords of Dameng Fairy City for help.
At this moment.
In the eastern region of the Southern Wasteland, there is a deep lake of magma that is extremely hot and almost burns everything.
A huge, scarlet cocoon that looked like a phoenix egg lay quietly and motionless, with gorgeous and exquisite golden patterns outlined on it, alternating between light and dark, as if it were a living creature with life, breathing in and out.
At this moment, a magnificent blue phoenix broke through the layers of void, carrying several fire seeds, flew into the magma fire lake, and piled the fire seeds next to a giant cocoon that looked like a phoenix egg.
I saw the golden patterns on the giant cocoon interweaving and spreading, absorbing the fire energy and making the crimson luster even brighter.
Seeing this, the blue phoenix did not stay for too long, but continued to break through the void to find more original fire for the giant cocoon.
At the same time, in the central area of Southern Wilderness, there was a remote mountain village.
"Grandma, my brother hasn't come back yet. It's been two years. Has he forgotten about Xiao Que'er?"
On the bumpy path, a little girl about four or five years old with pigtails was carrying a bundle of firewood. She looked at the wrinkled, hunched old woman next to her, who was carrying a bamboo basket, and asked.
The girl's clothes were very worn and patched, but her little face was as white as jade and her eyes were black and bright, making her look like a lovely porcelain doll.
"How could that be? My brother has been spotted by an immortal. He will come back when he learns the magic. Not only will he bring candied haws and other delicious food to Xiao Que, but he can also fly and take you everywhere with him."
Upon hearing this, the old woman spoke with a loving face and a hint of longing in her eyes.
Who would have thought that she, an old and helpless woman, adopted two babies, and that the elder child would be favored by an immortal and taken to practice Buddhism.
"Uh-huh."
Xiao Que nodded obediently, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Little Bird is so cute. When he grows up, he may be noticed by the immortals and taken to practice."
The old woman looked at the girl in front of her who looked like a porcelain doll and spoke kindly.
Compared to the older child, she felt that the girl in front of her was more fairy-like.
Not only has she been healthy and well-groomed since childhood, her health is better than that of the average child, and her skin is as fair and tender as that of a rich girl. She does not get any scars from any bumps she gets in her daily life.
"Xiao Que'er wants to accompany grandma and wait for her brother to come back."
Although the girl is young, she is very sensible. Her brother used to take care of her and her mother-in-law.
Now that her brother is gone, she has to take good care of her mother-in-law.
"Little Bird is so good."
When the old woman heard the fairy's words, her face immediately filled with smiles. She stretched out her skinny hands and rubbed her pigtails. Then the old and the young returned to the village, talking and laughing.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.
On this day, Dameng Fairy City suddenly released a piece of news to the public, announcing that the [Qianyuan Secret Realm] would be open to the public in half a year.
All cultivators below the Jindan stage in Jiang Kingdom can enter the secret realm.
Soon after the Dameng Fairy City released the news, the four major fairy gates all helped to promote it.
For a time, the news about the Qianyuan Secret Realm spread quickly throughout the Jiang Kingdom's immortal cultivation world like a hurricane.
"Qianyuan Secret Realm? Isn't this the secret realm that appeared in Damengze before? Why is this secret realm open to the public?"
Qianyuan Secret Realm is the name given by Dameng Fairy City to the deep sea secret realm of Damengze.
On the one hand, this secret place is hidden in the deep sea.
On the other hand, he hopes that the children of the Lu family will be able to keep their potential and remain in the deep.
"There's no need to think too much. The secret realm must have been explored completely, and no great opportunities were found. So it was opened to the public, allowing us to explore the secret realm."
"According to the introduction, this secret realm is pretty good. It is somewhat similar to the Purple Nether Secret Realm. It has many magical medicines and natural treasures. You only need to hand over 50% of your harvest."
"Wait, something is wrong, isn't it? All cultivators below the Jindan stage can enter, how come a fake Dan Zhen can also enter?"
"Oh my god, a fake Dan Zhenren can enter this secret realm of Qianyuan!? How can this be played?"
"Is this completely open to those big powers?"
However, when many cultivators went to learn about the secret realm, they were stunned to see that anyone below the Jindan stage could enter, excluding the fake dan true cultivators.
After all, no matter how fake a fake Dan cultivator is, he still has the word "Dan" in his name.
It is not something that can be compared with the foundation-building cultivators.
Although there are many stories of building foundation and fighting against fake elixirs in the world of immortal cultivation.
But which one of these is not famous and rare?
"Who cares? Since the secret realm doesn't have so many requirements and restrictions, it's worth a trip."
"That's right, the fake Dan Zhenren are all well-known figures. As long as we don't provoke them, I don't think they will kill indiscriminately."
"Brother Lu, would you like to go to the Great Dream Fairy City with me to see this secret realm of the Abyss?"
"Let's go, let's go. Since the four major immortal sects are helping to promote this secret realm, it means that this secret realm is not too bad."
Although the secret realm does not restrict fake dan Zhenren, which has discouraged many cultivators, there are still many foundation-building cultivators who choose to go to Damengze.
After all, for ordinary cultivators, the secret realm is an opportunity!
Now that there is a free secret realm open to the public, even though they know that the Great Dream Fairy City and the four major immortal sects may have some plans, they are still willing to go there.
