Demonic Demoness Training Project

"Yes, a little bit, but we like this feeling."

Su Xiaoya murmured softly, because from her perspective, every time she met Lu Li, it was as if it were the first time they had met, due to the fact that they had never met before.

It feels like... having gained a completely new mother!

How wonderful!

It was this feeling of being both close and distant, strange yet familiar, that brought Su Xiaoya a unique kind of stimulation.

"Is there anything we can do for our mother?"

"I almost forgot the important matter. Help me find someone named Lin An. He was probably an outer disciple before. He died in the Boundless Realm. He might have been turned into a wooden crow, or something else entirely."

"As ordered!"

"Also, don't alert the enemy. More important than the mission is to ensure that you are not discovered."

Although Su Xiaoya was very cautious when facing Lu Li, sometimes being too cautious is not a good thing. The once affectionate Mu Ya suddenly became distant, and those who knew her well could easily notice the clues.

The little wooden crow tapped its wings in front of it, and said somewhat awkwardly:

"Um, I have a small request."

"explain."

"That's right, I was assigned by the sect to follow a female disciple."

"Mmm, and then what?"

"That female disciple has a puppet sister. That female disciple is a big bad guy. She only uses the puppet sister as a tool. The puppet sister is so pitiful. When I saw her last time, her stomach was all hurt. I think the puppet sister is alive, just like us."

“Uh…” Lu Li was speechless. No wonder Xiao Bi Ga’s attitude towards Lu Li changed so much. There was even this misunderstanding. “So what is your demand?”

"Mother, can you help that puppet sister remember her memories from her past life and then join us? Please!"

Chapter 120 Robbery Everywhere [3k]

Lu Li looked at the little wooden crow and fell silent.

What a joke! To be the mother, enemy, and sister of a wooden crow at the same time? That seems impossible no matter how you look at it.

"Isn't that possible?"

Lu Li initially wanted to refuse this absurd request, but he came up with a better idea. The reason Lu Li had been hiding his identity was because he was worried that if Su Xiaoya's identity was exposed, Lu Li's identity would also suffer as soon as possible.

His identity as a mother made it inconvenient for him to communicate with Su Xiaoya, and he often had to call her out, and she often didn't recognize his face. Using the identity of Mo Wan to communicate was just right.

"Well, you might not believe it, but she's been secretly plotting and harboring resentment for a long time; she's already one of our people."

"Oh!"

Little Wooden Crow's eyes lit up. Although she didn't know when her mother had completed the ritual remotely, enlightening the ignorant and confused puppets, she thought it was amazing.

Lu Li was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and said:

"Come here for a second and lie down properly."

"Oh, what is Mother doing?"

"Lie down properly."

Lu Li casually found a rock to sit down, and the little wooden crow shyly lay down on his lap, its wings tucked behind its back and its legs spread apart in a welcoming gesture.

"Quack... Please, be gentle."

Lu Li examined the little wooden crow several times, turning it over and over, and finally found a line of small characters on its belly—

[Baiyue Palace Yushui Academy was built in the fourth month of the Bing Shen year (1375).]

Almost all the wooden artifacts produced by the White Moon Palace have this mark. In fact, trying to find a specific soul among hundreds or thousands of wooden crows is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Xiao Hanyan showed Lu Li the jade slip listing the fallen. Lin An died the year before last. The Boundless Realm opened in January of that year, which means the batches starting from February of the Bing Shen year.

From the perspective of the soul path, considering that the spirit of the artifact will wear out and disappear over time, at the very least in a few months, and that storing the soul itself requires a certain cost, in order to squeeze the value of the spirit of the artifact as much as possible.

From collecting souls to finally forging a weapon spirit, the process usually takes no more than a month.

Based on this calculation, the range can be narrowed down considerably, and the production time can be basically locked in January or February of the Bing Shen year.

After narrowing down the scope and having some preliminary information, the remaining task is to try to deduce using the methods of destiny. However, Lu Li does not have such methods at the moment. As for what will happen next, he can only take it one step at a time.

"When you help me find people later, be sure to pay close attention to the wooden crows produced in January and February of the Bing Shen year. You need to record them for me."

While the reward offered by Xiao Hanyan was certainly tempting, Lu Li felt he had done more than enough, and all that remained was to do his best and leave the rest to fate.

Two years have passed in between. That's a long time. Maybe the wooden crow named Lin An is already broken down.

……

After explaining things to Su Xiaoya, Lu Li went to report to the sect and then prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Lu Li stuffed the uranium pill into the Qi-Mixing Cauldron. In future battles, if he needed to use a future body, he could simply activate the Reversal Heavenly Dipper Instrument, saving him the step of swallowing the uranium pill.

As for the uranium pill emitting immeasurable calamities within the body, that's also easily resolved.

According to the method of opening up the source of the immeasurable kalpas given by Tan Mengzi, as long as the concentration of the immeasurable kalpas in the body reaches the threshold, one can circulate the body in a specific way.

If successful, it will trigger a tribulation of lightning, at which point one can attempt to break through the open source.

Even if you fail, you will still achieve the goal of tempering your body.

Lu Li had previously consumed uranium pills several times, and still had a considerable amount of immeasurable tribulations remaining in his body. During his seclusion, he attempted to do so twice, consuming a significant amount of immeasurable tribulations, but unsurprisingly, both attempts ended in failure, and he also depleted a considerable amount of immeasurable tribulations in his body.

From another perspective, it is precisely because Tan Mengzi's cultivation method consumes the immeasurable tribulations within the body that this action is beneficial to the body. If outer disciples possess such a cultivation method, the casualties during the annual exploration of the immeasurable realm will certainly be much smaller.

By repeatedly practicing the technique and attempting to break through, one can always keep the purity of the immeasurable eons within the body within a relatively safe range.

As for the issue of uranium pill consumption, there is no need to worry. Even if Lu Li places the uranium pill outside his body, it will still emit immeasurable calamity. Lu Li cannot stop this. Since it will emit immeasurable calamity anyway, he might as well make use of it.

Back then, Tan Mengzi didn't have Lu Li's advantages. She was just a mortal with limited magical artifacts, making it difficult for her to fight against demonic beasts. Even though she was in the Boundless Realm, she had no way to obtain uranium pills.

Tan Mengzi accumulated immeasurable eons by consuming uranium water, which required several years of accumulation before attempting a breakthrough. It took him over a hundred years and thirteen failures before he finally advanced to the Open Source Realm.

Lu Li estimated that at his current pace, he could attempt a breakthrough every three days.

The upper limit of the Demonic Path's Open Source is higher. If you can't break through it, then you should honestly go through the formal channels and get an Open Source Pill from the sect.

If he is lucky enough to break through to the Open Source stage, then everyone will be happy. Afterwards, Lu Li will get an Open Source Pill from the sect, register it, and pretend to be a righteous Open Source practitioner.

Since placing the uranium pill into the Qi-Mixing Cauldron, the uranium pill has been circulating throughout his body for countless eons, and Lu Li feels that his waist no longer hurts, his legs no longer ache, his uterus no longer feels cold, and his body feels warm on ordinary days.

Old Master Duan also noticed this, but she just smiled to herself and didn't say much.

……

Two days later, Lu Li returned to the core area, went to the pear orchard, and brought out the puppets from there.

As expected, these people had forgotten about her again. Lu Li proved her identity, and Hong Xian immediately led everyone to kneel and worship.

"We have taken it upon ourselves to appoint Lady You as the head of the household, Hong Xian as the second-in-command, and Zhuge Jin as the strategist."

"The way you're saying that makes us sound like robbers."

Lu Li's words were just a casual remark, but to his surprise, Hong Xian was startled, thinking he was being reprimanded. However, the man once again displayed his silver tongue, speaking with righteous indignation:

"With just a word from Lady Uranium, we are willing to go through fire and water. What does it matter if we become outlaws?"

Lu Li's lips twitched, and he exclaimed that it was completely unnecessary.

To Lu Li's surprise, the injuries on these people had been healed in just a few days, and some of the puppets even had one or two new puppet weapons. All of this was thanks to Zhuge Jin.

This guy was also a master of the Open Source Realm in his previous life, and his mastery of puppetry was even higher than Lu Li had imagined. As long as he was given enough spiritual materials, it would not be difficult for him to guide the puppets in production, repair and arm a group of puppets.

Lu Li then released the group, sending them to help him find the Ghost-Faced Flower King.

With these puppets, Jia Yixin was able to sweep away the vast majority of cultivators in the Boundless Realm.

Now that these puppets have fully awakened, the resentment that had been building up in their hearts can be vented. In addition, they feel fearless because they have the support of a cultivator at the Creation Realm. Furthermore, Hong Xian is also a talented individual, leading this group of puppets to plunder resources and rob passing cultivators.

If you encounter a cultivator from the White Moon Palace, rob them!

If you encounter a Qingyang Palace cultivator, rob them!

If members of a mid-tier family come, rob them!

No wonder all the major sects are refining souls and puppets, no wonder the Daoist tradition of Datong is so prosperous. This kind of fully automated production doesn't require Lu Li to worry too much, it's simply too great.

Using the pear orchard as their hideout... no, their base, the group would return every two or three days to regroup and offer a portion of their loot to this uranium-rich lady.

In less than ten days, the spiritual materials that Lu Li had given to these puppeteers had been recouped.

Lu Li glanced at the mountain of spiritual materials, quietly pocketed them, feeling both secretly pleased and somewhat apprehensive.

Worried that those forces would come after her again, and with these puppets continuing to cause trouble, the pseudonym "Uranium Girl" might not be able to stay hidden any longer.

"You didn't mention my name when you went out, did you?"

"Don't worry, senior. Although you are our leader, we act under the name of the Tongxian Sect and its protectors. When we encounter cultivators from the Tongxian Sect, we let them leave."

"What a clever way to shift the blame! Was this your idea?"

"Reporting to Senior Uranium Maiden, this was the idea of ​​Military Advisor Zhuge."

The greatest enemy of the puppets was originally the Tongxian Sect, but after these people caused such a commotion, the two sects and many families instantly turned their attention to the Tongxian Sect.

Lu Li reasonably suspected that even if Protector Jia had brought these puppets, he wouldn't have achieved such great results. Turning Hong Xian into a spirit and using him as a puppet would be a waste of his talent.

Some people are born to be robbers; only by letting them develop their talents can they truly showcase their abilities.

However, their good fortune was short-lived. The various forces soon discovered the villain and began to band together for mutual support. With the addition of two elite factions joining the battle, the teams that were originally composed of three to five people now consisted of a dozen or twenty people. Even when Zhong Yan saw him, he could not act rashly.

However, with this power, Lu Li was still able to get a share of the pie in the deep zone. The total value of the spiritual materials he had exceeded 20,000 spirit stones. Including the previous fragments of the Return to the Void Seal, he had accumulated a total of sixteen fragments.

In the blink of an eye, the sixteenth day arrived. Hong Xian found him and said it was the whereabouts of the Ghost-Faced Flower King.

Subsequently, Lu Li arrived at the valley where the Ghost Face Flower King was located. From a distance, he saw that the flower was about two zhang long, with a huge, pale face on top of its black petals. This face was six zhang in diameter, dozens of times larger than the ordinary Ghost Face Flower.

At this moment, the Ghost-Faced Flower King was eating. Its large face suddenly split open from the middle, revealing a mouthful of serrated teeth. It stuffed a second-stage demon beast into its mouth and chewed it, making a crunching sound, which was extremely ferocious.

"The limit of the Ghost-Faced Flower is the second stage. This Ghost-Faced Flower must have been affected by the Immeasurable Tribulation to advance to the third stage, which is why it has undergone such an abnormal change. I just don't know if it has a uranium pill inside its body."

Lu Li was considering whether to use the power of the uranium pill to kill it instantly.

Just then, a pleasant female voice rang in my ears.

"Beautiful lady, would you be interested in hunting this monster with me?"

"Ok?"

Lu Li turned his head and saw twelve or thirteen Open Source Realm cultivators walking towards him.

The speaker was a young girl who walked at the front of the group. She looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old, with a chubby face and long, cherry-pink hair that fell casually to her waist.

At this moment, she sat obediently on the shoulder of a puppet, her bare jade feet swinging gently, and her purplish-red eyes blinking, casting a curious gaze at Lu Li.

However, what Lu Li cared about most was not the girl herself, but the puppet beneath her, which gave Lu Li a strong sense of oppression.

This is actually a... three-turn puppet!

Lu Li's heart skipped a beat. He was on high alert. Could it be that his men had been involved in too many burglaries and robberies, and that the White Moon Palace had taken notice of them?

It's just unknown whether his past influence will have any effect on the Three Turns of the Oddity.

Chapter 121 Saintess Xie Lingyin [3k]

“I forgot to introduce myself. I’m Xie Lingyin,” the girl patted the puppet beneath her. “This is my younger sister, Xie Xiao.”

younger sister!?

Lu Li glanced at the puppet named Xie Xiao and couldn't help but swallow. This puppet was over two zhang tall, with a snow-white and round body. It had no head and a single eye the size of a basket on its chest.

Then I looked at the little girl with her tiny feet dangling on the puppet's shoulder.

So, the big one below is the younger sister, and the tiny one above is the older sister?

If the relationship is good, it's not entirely incomprehensible that one would name their own spouse and address them as sisters.

However, the name Xie Lingyin sounded strangely familiar to Lu Li.

So, Lu Li searched his mind and quickly found the name from the information provided by Su Xiaoya.

Xie Lingyin, the third saintess of the White Moon Palace!

Unlike Lu Li, who was a Saintess of Glory with only a title but no real power, the one opposite her was a genuine Saintess, not only a leading figure among the younger generation, but also holding a position in the sect that was no less than that of some elders.
