Battle Through the Heavens: His comprehension is extraordinary, shocking Yao Lao from the very begin

Chapter 147 Refining High-Level Puppets

Seeing the barrier appear at the cave entrance behind the waterfall, Yun Yun stood there dumbfounded for a long time before muttering in disbelief, "Is it really just cultivation?"

This discovery made her feel as if she had been doused with a bucket of cold water, as if a soft spot in her heart had just been deeply touched and she had felt a little hot.

Yun Yun frowned slightly, bit her red lips tightly, and stomped her foot indignantly. A look of resentment and grievance welled up on her pretty face.

He had made a plan for the two of them based on his own wishful thinking, never expecting that the other party was just a strange cultivator.

"Strange guy, may you live a lonely life from now on." Yun Yun bit her red lips and kicked a boulder hard.

A fierce burst of energy shot out, shattering the boulder and tearing a trench more than ten meters long into the ground.

Little Red, who had just returned to the top of the valley after frolicking around, couldn't help but shrink back when she saw this scene.

I knew this kind of animal was inedible; such a volatile temper would likely affect digestion.

After crawling back a short distance, Xiao Hong turned and ran towards the small valley filled with medicinal herbs, thinking to herself: This depths of the Monster Mountain Range are really not safe. I'd better just do my guard duty properly.

After venting her anger, Yun Yun's pretty face was flushed, and she slammed her sword into the ground, letting out a soft breath.

With her long, slender, fair legs, Yun Yun slowly knelt on the grass, exhaled softly, and suppressed some of the emotions that were rarely seen on her face.

Although she didn't know the specifics of how it would help with cultivation, Yun Yun could guess a little bit based on the lingering memories in her mind.

It is said that alluring women are used as a means of cultivation; if one can maintain composure, one's cultivation level will increase.

After thinking about it for a moment, Yun Yun felt her body go weak and couldn't help but let out a soft snort: "What kind of strange cultivation method is that?!"

Yun Yun had read quite a few ancient books, and after trying hard to recall them, she still couldn't think of any records of using female beauty to aid cultivation. This made her look up at the cave behind the waterfall with even more resentment.

As Yun Yun is, she has seen countless outstanding young men, including some whose status and position are so high that women would throw themselves at them.

However, she didn't show any extra attention to any of these things. The only man who could cause such a significant emotional fluctuation in her seemed to be this boy with whom she had a very complicated relationship.

Inside the cave, Xiao Yan sealed the entrance with his Dou Qi, then with a flick of his black sleeve, he retrieved the corpse of the traitor Wuya.

The Three Paths Gu erupted from his body, and Wuya's body, a Dou Zong, was covered in a ghostly green color, completely different from the bones of ordinary people.

The reason for sealing the cave entrance is not only to prevent disturbances, but also to prevent the spread of the Three Paths Gu poison.

Looking at the strongest corpse he had obtained so far, Xiao Yan couldn't help but think of the even stronger one from the Chuyun Empire.

"It's a pity that Xie Biyan, who was at the four-star Dou Zong level, was completely ruined after using the Demonic Poison Spot. His body and soul were completely destroyed."

"However, it's also thanks to the old man's demonic poison mark; otherwise, it would probably have taken a very long time to break through and become a Dou Huang powerhouse."

Thinking that he was able to break through the Dou Huang bottleneck that had troubled most geniuses in a very short time, Xiao Yan felt relieved of his regret.

As for the body needed to resurrect Yao Lao, let's wait until we find the other two materials. Keeping this Dou Zong's corpse will only cause it to depreciate in value.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Xiao Yan flicked his finger and released a wisp of dark green flame, using the evolved Netherworld Poison Fire to envelop the corpse of Wuya.

Nurturing it with the extremely potent poison produced by Little Fairy Doctor, the Netherworld Poison Fire evolves at a speed far exceeding other strange fires, making it the first flame to break through the rankings on the Strange Fire List.

Under the burning of the dark green Netherworld Poison Fire, as time went by, the black corpse energy produced by the centipede cliff's remains was gradually burned out.

Unlike previous refining methods, after the black corpse energy emerged, Xiao Yan's hand seals suddenly changed, and the Netherworld Poison Fire rose up, refining the corpse energy into his bones.

As a flame he cultivated himself, Xiao Yan's mastery of the Netherworld Poison Flame was absolutely exquisite, almost on par with Yao Lao's control over the Bone Spirit Cold Flame.

It's important to understand that Elder Yao accumulated his skills through years of alchemy, gradually reaching the level of an eighth-grade alchemist. Xiao Yan is only around fifteen years old, and his cultivation time is much shorter than Elder Yao's.

The refining method was changed, and this time the tempering took four or five hours to integrate the corpse poison into the centipede's corpse.

After the addition of corpse poison, the bones took on the same color as the Netherworld Poison Fire—a dark green!

Although it took some time, the Three Paths Gu fused with this strange corpse energy and evolved into a more troublesome and potent poison, which improved the quality of the corpses on Centipede Cliff.

Even Xiao Yan, the creator of this poison, would have to expend considerable effort to remove it.

After refining the body, Xiao Yan curled his five fingers and instantly unleashed five bursts of energy, creating five holes in Wuya's forehead and chest.

After completing this step, Xiao Yan retrieved four demon cores and a jade bottle from his storage ring.

Looking at the five holes in the body, Xiao Yan shook his head slightly.

For ordinary puppet making, you only need to open one on the forehead and one on the chest of the body, one to hold the soul and the other to hold the magic core.

Unfortunately, he had too few resources and could only compensate for the cost with sheer quantity.

After sorting through the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect's collection, Xiao Yan couldn't find a single seventh-tier magic core, but fortunately he did find a few sixth-tier magic cores.

Upon seeing the light again, the Iron Protector's furious, venomous roar echoed from the jade bottle: "Xiao Yan, what exactly do you want from me?!"

"Hehe, no need to rush, I'll give you your freedom soon." Xiao Yan smiled and flicked his finger to place four sixth-level magic cores into the four holes in Wuya's chest.

Having killed many powerful figures from the Izumo Empire, the sixth-tier magic cores obtained from the Ten Thousand Scorpion Sect only accounted for a portion of the total number of magic cores in Xiao Yan's possession.

These four sixth-tier magic cores were carefully selected, and they are all top-quality fire-attribute magic cores.

After all, it was the only Dou Zong body available, so Xiao Yan naturally treasured it and treated it with great care.

When Iron Protector heard that Xiao Yan was going to release him, he was naturally overjoyed: "It seems that you have come to know how powerful the Soul Palace is during this time."

"Your strength is not bad. If I were to introduce you, you could be a Earth-level protector, one level above me. With some more cultivation, becoming a Heaven-level protector wouldn't be difficult."
