Chapter 189 Advanced Puppetry
After several hours.

Qin Ming has completed refining seven times.

There were still a few failures.

at last.

Wait until the eighth time of refining.

A burst of colorful light emerged from the interior of the Xuanyu furnace, lingering around the furnace.

Qin Ming's expression lit up with joy, and he raised his hand towards the alchemy furnace. Suddenly, a transparent elixir with six lines on it appeared in his palm.

"Exquisite Soul-Returning Pill!"

After using up all the remaining materials, Qin Ming refined two ordinary quality Soul-Returning Pills and two fine quality Soul-Returning Pills.

For a second-grade, top-grade elixir that is extremely difficult to make, the success rate is already extremely high.

Qin Ming studied a few pills for a while, then put them into a jade bottle.

“Tsk tsk, this seemingly ordinary elixir can actually allow a cultivator to return to his peak state, a flash in the pan.”

Although he had refined the elixir in less than a month, he was not in a hurry to go to Canghai Fairy City to deliver the goods.

Anyway, he will have to go to Danding Pavilion in Canghai Fairy City to get spiritual materials in person three months later, so they might as well go together then.

for the rest of the time.

In addition to practicing, Qin Ming continued to study the high-level puppetry that he had obtained from Miao Renke's storage bag.

After several years of research, Qin Ming's application of puppetry and the power of mind separation has almost reached the second level.

The straw puppets in the spiritual field have also been upgraded by him to the first-class level.

After returning from Canghai Fairy City last time, he also bought some materials and refined a second-level puppet.

Inside the cave.

Qin Ming was concentrating on fiddling with the object in his hand.

After Qin Ming's meticulous carving, numerous materials gradually took shape, and a piece of black copper in his hand was embedded into the core part.

He assembled a puppet in the shape of a spirit turtle.

Qin Ming also painted a layer of khaki paint on its surface, making it look vivid at first glance.

Qin Ming then embedded a medium-grade spirit stone into the core groove of the turtle puppet.

Suddenly, the whole spirit puppet made a crackling sound, and dark green spirit patterns appeared on its surface.

The three-meter-long spirit turtle puppet moved for a moment, then lit up a pair of green eyes and looked at Qin Ming, waiting for his instructions.

Qin Ming used the puppet-controlling technique and separated a strand of his spiritual consciousness and immersed it into the puppet.

next moment.

The spirit turtle held its head high and chest puffed out, and the huge shell behind it flashed with a layer of ochre light.

The spiritual pressure it exudes is comparable to that of an immortal cultivator in the early stages of foundation building.

"A second-level low-grade puppet! It's finally been refined."

"Although it is only a low-quality second-level puppet, there is still room for improvement."

Qin Ming looked at his carefully crafted work and was quite satisfied.

This turtle puppet is a defensive puppet, able to withstand attacks below the middle stage of foundation building. It also has the ability to cast water arrows, and its power is not much different from the spells of ordinary foundation building cultivators.

Puppetry is also very useful to Qin Ming, besides helping him dig the ground and weed.

In the future, when you practice outside, if you encounter a great opportunity, if it involves the opportunity to form a pill, or even the opportunity to form a Nascent Soul in the future.

Even if he had enough life, he could not help but remain indifferent.

After mastering the art of puppetry, he naturally became cannon fodder for him.

It can reduce a lot of risk for yourself.

Materials such as monster materials, spiritual wood, and ores can all be used as materials for refining puppets.

What Qin Ming lacked the least were these things, so learning how to refine them went quite smoothly.

From then on, in addition to spiritual plants and alchemy, Qin Ming also acquired another art of cultivating immortals and entered the second level.

……

Two months later.

Qin Ming's continuous improvements and addition of materials have improved the quality of the puppet.

Two brand new second-level inferior turtle spirit puppets were born in his hands. Although their attack power was not very strong, they were very sturdy and durable, and could be used as cannon fodder for exploration in the future.

Anyway, he still has a lot of spiritual materials in his hands, and he can remake them if they are scrapped.

"The three-month period has come and it's almost time to go to Canghai Fairy City."

Qin Ming put the two spirit puppets into the storage bag, then summoned the Silver-Winged Frost Bee, opened the misty illusion, and went directly out of Moon-Watching Island.

The situation outside has not changed much, but the monsters are much quieter than before.

Qin Ming rode the Silver-Winged Frost Bee at full speed, rushing all the way at lightning speed. After more than an hour, he arrived at the Canghai Immortal City.

The soil outside the fairy city is still bright red. It seems that it has experienced several waves of beast tides during this period of time.

"Hey hey hey!"

"Here's a fat sheep!"

"Brother, please stay!"

"Fight. Rob!"

Just when Qin Ming was staying not far outside Canghai Fairy City, he had just put the Silver-Winged Frost Bee into the spirit beast bag and was about to send a message to Lu Liang, asking him to open the formation for him to enter the city.

Two beams of light flashed by, and the figures of two monks, one fat and one thin, blocked his way.

The two men had evil eyes and emitted the magical power fluctuations of the early stage of foundation building. They were staring at Qin Ming with a wicked smile on their faces.

It seems that he is a robbery cultivator who is hiding near the Immortal City, taking advantage of the chaos caused by the beast tide.

"Brother, you are really brave. You dare to go out alone in such a chaotic world."

"Since you are alone, you can't blame us, the Sheshan Twin Devils."

"If you had surrendered obediently, we brothers would have been spared such a hassle."

"Maybe I can make you suffer less later, hehehe!"

Qin Ming was also quite depressed. He had not encountered any attacks from monsters on the way here.

Unexpectedly, when approaching Canghai Immortal City, they encountered two calamity cultivators.

However, the level of these two people is far behind that of a gangster group like Lin Zixiao.

Qin Ming raised a smile and said, "My two fellow Taoists, I have a treasure here. I think it is destined for you two. Why don't you take a look?"

"What treasure?!"

"Hurry up and take it out. If you feel like playing tricks, we two brothers will let you know why the flowers are so red!"

Qin Ming smiled when he heard that, and then he slapped his storage bag. The two turtle puppets turned into two streams of light and instantly appeared in the air in front of him.

"Second-level puppet!"

The moment the turtle puppet appeared, the two Sheshan demons on the opposite side couldn't help but exclaimed.

It was originally a two-on-one situation, but the situation suddenly reversed and became three-on-two.

In fact, the reason why Qin Ming had the patience to argue with these two stupid thieves was that he just wanted to test the strength of the two newly produced second-level spirit puppets.

He was just worrying about where to test them, but unexpectedly two of them came to his doorstep, and neither more nor less than the initial stage of the foundation-building period.

"Hey, hey, brother, you misunderstood!"

"We recognized the wrong person just now. We are so sorry!"

"We're leaving now."

But they were about to fly back.

hum~
A silver light flashed and appeared out of thin air in front of the Sheshan Twin Devils.

The two monks, one fat and one thin, were retreating and suddenly came to a sudden stop in mid-air.

Then they looked at the thing that blocked their retreat. When they saw it clearly, their pupils suddenly shrank!
They were so scared that they almost peed themselves to death. Because behind them was a silver-winged frost bee the size of a calf, emitting a huge spiritual pressure of a second-stage mid-stage demon.

And it looks like the pet of the ordinary-looking monk just now.

"Oh my gosh! Is this the fat sheep you mentioned?"

"Why do I feel like the two of us look more like fat sheep?"

The two men were already sweating profusely. They didn't expect that they would hit a wall on the first day of begging.

"My fellow Taoist, we are blind and have not recognized a great man. Please spare us!" The two men returned and bowed deeply to Qin Ming.

Suddenly!
More than ten spiritual weapons with sharp spikes flashing with green poisonous light came straight towards Qin Ming's face.

The Sheshan Twin Devils obviously did not expect Qin Ming to let them go, and actually chose to break through from his "weakest" body.

As long as Qin Ming is subdued, the remaining puppets and spirit pets will naturally be obedient.

But reality is always different from imagination.

In an instant, one of the turtle puppets moved horizontally to the middle, and the shell on its back suddenly became larger, emitting a yellowish-brown light.

Ding Ding Ding Ding!

A series of collision sounds were heard, and the two men's fatal sneak attacks, which were all blocked by the turtle puppet.

The two brothers were stunned.

Then the two turtle puppets attacked the two cultivators from the front and back.

In an instant, the two puppets and the two monks started fighting.

Qin Ming and Silver-Winged Frost Bee, on the other hand, watched the show calmly from the sidelines.

Various spells flashed in the air and flew everywhere.

Even though the two evil spirits of Sheshan tried their best, they could not break through the defense of the turtle puppet.

But once they tried to use their speed advantage to run out, the terrifying Silver Wing Frost Bee would appear in front of them in a strange way.
gradually.

The two robbery cultivators were completely drained of their magic power by the two turtle puppets.

It's already the last gasp of a spent force.

Qin Ming had almost finished testing the spirit puppets, and immediately separated all his spiritual thoughts and immersed them into one of the spirit puppets.

Then the turtle puppet opened its mouth and sprayed a blue water arrow that flashed through the air and instantly pierced through the chests of the two cultivators at a strange angle.

"Ah!"

The two men screamed and lost their balance and fell from the air.

Qin Ming didn't even raise his eyelids, he threw out two black spirit seeds and cast the thorn spell on the two of them.

Afterwards, two blood beads and two storage bags were harvested. As for the corpse, it would soon become food for passing monsters.

Qin Ming opened the storage bag and took a look. It seemed that the Sheshan Twin Devils were at the bottom of the list in the world of cultivation. Apart from tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones, everything else was just ordinary stuff.

He waved his hand and the two turtle puppets shrank in size and flew to his side.

Qin Ming checked carefully. After the fierce fight, the two puppets only had a few not-so-obvious scratches on their bodies. Everything else was normal.

"Yes, Not Bad!"

Then he put away the spirit puppet and flew towards the fairy city.

……

On the way, Qin Ming sent a message to Lu Liang.

After half a stick of incense.

Lu Liang rushed out of the city and personally let Qin Ming go.

"Oh, Fellow Daoist Qin, I didn't expect you to come to the Immortal City again so soon!" Lu Liang greeted Qin Ming warmly.

Fellow Daoist Qin smiled and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, Fellow Daoist Lu. I have to trouble you to open the door in person every time."

"Hey! What are you saying, Brother Qin? You are being too polite!"

"Fellow Daoist Qin, what is the matter that brought you to the Immortal City? Is there anything I can help you with?"

"It's nothing particularly important, just a small matter. There's no need to trouble you, Brother Lu."

"Oh, in that case, please come to my house after you finish your business. I will ask Wanjun to prepare a nice meal for you in the evening."

"sure."

As the two were talking, they had already arrived at the inner city.

Lu Liang had official business to attend to, so he went ahead.

Qin Ming went straight along the main road and came to the core area of ​​Canghai Immortal City.

Following Wei Wuya's instructions, they walked through several alleys and finally arrived in front of an elegant pavilion. On the plaque above the pavilion were three large characters "Linglong Pavilion".

It was the industry opened by Lei Yuanzong in Canghai Xiancheng.

Qin Ming immediately stepped in.

As soon as I entered, a white-haired old man in a blue robe came out and greeted me warmly:

"Oh! It's Brother Qin who is here!"

"My last name is Mei, and I am the shopkeeper of this Linglong Pavilion. Young Sect Master Wei just gave me instructions not long ago."

Fellow Daoist Qin observed Shopkeeper Mei briefly and discovered that he was actually in the late stage of foundation building.

Hearing this, he also returned the greeting, "Manager Mei."

"This is not a place to talk, please go upstairs." Shopkeeper Mei said with a smile and made a gesture of invitation.

After a while.

After the two went upstairs.

After Shopkeeper Mei set up a soundproofing ban for the room, he asked doubtfully, "Fellow Daoist Qin, you came to the pavilion so early. Did something go wrong during the process of refining the Soul-Returning Pill?"

"Is there anyone I can help with?"

"Or is it because there are not enough spiritual materials?"

"But if that's the case, I'm sorry I can't help you. The spiritual materials for refining the Soul-Returning Pill are really hard to find."

When Shopkeeper Mei saw Fellow Daoist Qin coming, he didn't even think about successfully refining the elixir.

Because it’s only been three months.

In his opinion, even the most powerful second-level alchemist would have a hard time even figuring out the elixir formula, let alone refining it.

Elder Yan of Lei Yuan Sect also spent more than half a year researching before he started to refine it, but the result was still horrible.

Qin Dao shook his head. He didn't plan to stay here for too long. He wanted to settle the matter and leave after getting the spiritual materials that Wei Wuya promised him.

He then took out two exquisite porcelain bottles, placed them on the table, and said straight to the point: "Shopkeeper Mei, thanks to Fellow Daoist Wei, I have successfully completed my mission and refined two pills."

The voice just fell.

hum~
Shopkeeper Mei stared at the bottle of medicine Qin Ming handed over, his mind going blank.

"Fellow Daoist Qin Qin!"

“Is this accomplished already?”

Qin Ming nodded without comment.

"Yes, one of ordinary quality, and one of premium quality Soul-Returning Pill. Shopkeeper Mei can check them."

"what?!"

"Exquisite Soul-Returning Pill!"

"..."

Afterwards, Shopkeeper Mei could not wait to open the two porcelain bottles in front of him and poured out two pills.

As a member of the Lei Yuan Sect who was in the late stage of foundation building, he had lived for so long that he had some experience.

When he saw the six elixir patterns on one of the elixirs, he was finally shocked.
