I am evergreen in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 296 Puppet Clone

Qizhen building, alchemy room.

After hearing the news, Granny Yun rushed over to appraise the three Foundation Establishment Pills that Lu Changan had refined.

"They are all genuine Foundation-Building Pills with very few impurities. I admire Master Xu's superb alchemy skills."

Granny Yun was full of praise.

The Yun brothers and sisters were delighted and had smiles on their faces.

Once alchemy, both brother and sister got the foundation building pill.Not only save money and time, but also reduce risk.

"Really Xu, this is your reward."

Granny Yun accepted two Foundation Establishment Pills and gave the other one to Lu Changan.

This is a prior agreement.

If three Foundation Establishment Pills are refined, Lu Changan will take one of them as a reward.

After this alchemy, the two sides got to know each other and established initial trust.

Lu Changan's alchemy skills were recognized by Granny Yun.

The three foundation building pills are of high quality, and the alchemy speed is fast and stable.

With such skills, at least a quasi-third-tier alchemist.

Moreover, Master Xu claimed that he could still refine a small number of third-level elixirs, but the success rate was not high.

Qizhen Building, the living room on the first floor.

Granny Yun personally made tea for Lu Changan and chatted for a while.

During this period, Granny Yun kept her composure and looked at this Mr. Xu, making sure that the latter's appearance and charm were not from any old person in her memory.

"Could it be the illusory reincarnation past life?"

Grandma Yun was uncertain.

However, in reincarnation, the next life is equal to a new life, even close relatives are fine, and they may even kill each other.

Therefore, searching for past lives is meaningless.

Unless it can break the mystery of the womb and awaken the memory of the previous life.

But only those who are powerful, or those who practice reincarnation attributes can do this.

Xu Zhenren, as a real person of alchemy, a quasi-third-level alchemist, is at least one or two hundred years old.

Lihuo Shangren's soul lamp was extinguished, and he fell for decades, and his age was completely out of date.

"This person is elegant and easy-going, and he is indeed kind-hearted. He is easy to please most people..."

During the conversation, Grandma Yun became more and more comfortable looking at her, and she was willing to talk with her.

Whether it is a fate of reincarnation, or a real fate, it is a good thing, and this person is worth wooing.

Lu Chang'an didn't want to have an in-depth communication with Grandma Yun, but the other party was too interested in talking.

He managed to get to the point:

"Shopkeeper Yun, I heard from Yunling earlier that if the alchemy is successful this time, will you recommend a comfortable and free third-order spiritual vein dojo for Xu?"

Granny Yun was inexplicably annoyed, she could see that Lu Changan didn't want to talk to this old woman.

She mused: "It is indeed the case, and the old man will help to introduce it. But whether it can be successful depends on Master Xu's skills and character."

"Really Xu's skill is recognized by the old man. In the end, it depends on the opinion of the real old friend of the old man. Because he is in charge of the spiritual vein dojo."

"That Spirit Vein Dojo is in the Heyuan Oasis? Which faction owns it?"

Lu Changan asked.

"It's in the Heyuan Oasis. That ashram doesn't belong to a certain faction. It doesn't need Master Xu to work hard, and there are not so many constraints. Only Master Xu can steadily complete some alchemy commissions, train some medicine boys, and help take care of them. Herbs..."

The conditions Granny Yun said made Lu Changan tempted.

He estimated that it should be a small private third-level spiritual pulse dojo.

In addition to being divided into grades, spiritual veins are also divided into scales.

The higher the level of spiritual veins, the larger the scale.

There are also small third-order spiritual veins, most of which are acquired, not congenital.

For example, Jinyun Valley's medium and large third-order spiritual veins can supply seven or eight real pills for cultivation at the same time.

"How long will it take to have accurate news."

Lu Changan's other two candidates are not as good as this one.

"It will take about half a year for my old friend to return to Heyuan Oasis. If Master Xu has no better choice, you might as well wait."

"Okay, then half a year."

Lu Changan agreed.

He reckoned that half a year was just Yun Yan's rhetoric.

During this period of time, Yun Yan and that old friend will probably investigate Xu Zhenren's origin and examine his character.

……

The next day.

Lu Chang'an rented a small private courtyard in Fangshi for half a year, which is more cost-effective than an inn and more private.

For half a year, he didn't have a third-order spiritual vein, but only enjoyed a second-order spiritual vein. Lu Changan used spirit stone pills as a supplement.

However, the spirit stone elixir cannot be relied on for a long time, otherwise it will reduce the monk's sense of heaven and earth and kill his own potential.

Moreover, the cost is more than ten times more expensive than renting a spiritual vein.

For half a year, Lu Changan focused on studying "Records of Transforming Spiritual Puppets" and Ada Wan's puppet experience to promote his skills and inspiration.

That female puppet with a human face is the crystallization of Ada Maru's lifelong research.

Just this strange spirit puppet has benefited Lu Changan a lot.

The human-faced dragon girl can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, about [-]% complete, with some defects, the battle cannot last long, and it is prone to failure.

In addition, the independent consciousness of the human-faced dragon puppet's spirit injection has a certain repulsion to Lu Changan's manipulation, and he is restrained.

After all, the consciousness of the puppet's spiritual injection was once the sister who fell in love with Adamaru.

Fortunately, Lu Changan did not intend to use "her" to fight, it was purely used as a research object.

By studying this supernatural puppet, Lu Changan quickly understood the method of injecting spirits in the "Record of Transforming Spiritual Puppet".

In less than a month, he learned successfully.

After all, Lu Chang'an has the vision consciousness of a Nascent Soul, his spiritual consciousness is strong, and his puppet skills are close to the third-order mid-level.

After learning the method of puppet injection, Lu Chang'an wanted to find a test product.

It needs to refine the living soul, and the effect is better for intelligent humans, and the methods are cruel.

Although Lu Chang'an was not a benevolent person, he would not kill innocent people of his own kind indiscriminately without benefit or grievance.

He sent the rock rat to the desert, caught some sand beasts with higher spiritual intelligence, and collected some sand beast souls through the soul raising ring.

Afterwards, the soul of the sand beast was refined and injected into the eliminated second-order puppets.

When refining, erase the memory of the consciousness that resists the disadvantage, and finally leave a relatively clean seedling of consciousness.

After many experiments, one or two cases were successful.

Lu Chang'an discovered the flaws and limitations of this kind of refining and infusion.

One is the refining process, which may make the living soul unable to bear the torture and completely collapse.

The higher the intelligence of the living soul, the stronger the resistance.

Second, after refining and infusing the spirit into the puppet, it still needs to undergo a long period of training and training.

If the time of training and training is long enough, the consciousness and wisdom in the puppet will be higher, and its judgment will be more rational, and its combat strength may exceed that of monks of the same level.

Therefore, the two cases in which Lu Changan successfully injected spirits were dull, and the consciousness level of independent fighting was very weak.

"Ada Maru's success is due to trickery. His own sister, who is in love with him, is willing to cooperate..."

Lu Changan saw the reason.

Adawan has tricks, and so does Lu Changan.

The first, second, and fourth lives in the Nine Seal Tablet are all ready-made soul forms, and after being washed by the reincarnation power of the Nine Seal Tablet, they are extremely pure.

However, no matter how much the soul is refined through spiritual infusion, some of the obsessions left during life will remain.

In the following time, Lu Changan tried to guide the shadow of the soul of the first life, refining it and injecting it into the puppet.

The shadow of the soul of the first life lit up extremely fast.

Nourished by the soul of the golden core realm, it can be lit up in a day at most.

The previous attempts all ended in failure.

The soul shadow of the first life, after leaving Lu Changan's body, passed away at an accelerated speed.

In the process of merging and running in with the puppet, it was not so smooth, and it collapsed soon after.

Lu Chang'an understands that the physical body of the previous life and this life are perfectly compatible, and there is no such blessing for other physical bodies.

Seeing this, Lu Changan directly refined the shadow of the soul in his body, compressing and purifying it.

Just like refining a magic weapon, imprint your own spiritual consciousness.

The control hub of the puppet carrier is also refined, leaving a mark of spiritual consciousness.

In the end, the compressed and purified soul shadow turned into a mung bean-sized soul light bead and merged into the second-order puppet carrier.

This time it worked!
The shadow of the soul of the first life, refined and injected into the puppet.

"what!"

Lu Changan unexpectedly discovered that the second-order tortoise puppet after the spirit injection was like his flesh and blood clone.

With a thought, the turtle puppet flexibly made various precise movements.

Continuous backflips, death spins, turtle sumo...

Not only wielding it like an arm, Lu Changan's own spiritual consciousness consumption is minimal.

After two months of trying, Lu Changan was heartbroken.

After compression and refinement, the first spirit injection is supplied with the spiritual power of the puppet crystals. As long as there is no violent fighting, it can be stored for a long time.

some night.

Lu Changan manipulated the puppet of the first spiritual injection in the wilderness, far away.

As a result, this puppet can be manipulated by his thoughts like an arm within a range of hundreds of miles, like a remote clone.

Moreover, it can also share the senses of the puppet.

"Puppet incarnation!"

Lu Changan was pleasantly surprised, and an idea popped up in his mind.

The alien puppet created by Adalaru does not have the control of a flesh-and-blood arm, nor can it be controlled from such a long distance.

Lu Changan speculates that the target of the spirit injection refining is the soul form of his previous life, which is equivalent to another self!
Therefore, after the spirit injection possesses the puppet, it will have the similar effect of "incarnation outside the body".

But there are differences.

Lu Changan's puppet clone has no independent consciousness and needs to be controlled remotely.

The real incarnation outside the body can only be completed in the stage of transforming into a god.

This state is also known as the distraction period, which can separate part of the consciousness and thoughts independently without affecting the original source of the soul.

Such avatars have supernatural powers, have self-awareness, and can explore outside, fight martial arts, and perform complex tasks.

In the realm below the transformation of gods, it is difficult to cultivate the magical power of transformation.

Because, you have to bear the consequences of splitting your soul consciousness, hurt your soul, and affect your lifespan and potential.

Even if the legendary "Second Nascent Infant" is created under the guise of foreign objects, the consciousness must be split, the soul of the deity will be damaged, and a little soul origin will be lost.

The loss of the original soul, involving the potential of life, is almost permanently irrecoverable.

This is also the reason why there are very few people who have cultivated into incarnations in the Nascent Soul stage.

There are very few cultivation avatars, most of them are castrated versions, with greatly reduced supernatural powers, and there are many restrictions.

The fourth generation of Lu Changan, I have consulted the relevant classics and records.

Even in the stage of transformation, there are risks in playing transformation.

Once the deity of Huashen is injured, the strength drops, or the avatar gets some great opportunity, and the strength surpasses the deity, there is a risk of turning back.

Such an example has happened more than once or twice in Tianheng Continent since ancient times.

"Although my puppet clone is far inferior to that of Huashen Tianjun, it only incorporates the soul of the first life."

"If it is integrated into the second life's alchemy peak, the fourth life's Nascent Soul, the control distance may be farther, and the strength will be stronger."

Lu Changan couldn't help looking forward to a scenario:
He himself hid in Fengyuan Kingdom, remotely controlled the powerful puppet possessed by the Fourth World, and returned to the Guardian League and Liang Guoxiu's world to purchase resources, inquire about intelligence, and assassinate enemies.

Of course, this is just a theoretical reverie, and there are many difficulties in practice.

For example, the puppets created must be realistic enough, and their appearance and speech are indistinguishable from those of humans.

The puppet inheritance that Lu Changan received in his fourth life memory was quite satisfactory, without any cutting-edge skills in this specific field.

Adamaru does have some reserves of such skills.

However, as long as the puppet is close, it is easy to see the flaws, and it can only deceive low-level monks.

"To create a perfect puppet avatar and go out for me, you must acquire the core puppet skills of Qianjijiao."

Lu Chang'an intends to settle down in Fengyuan Country and advance to the mid-stage of alchemy before considering this matter.

……

Lu Changan spent the agreed six months to the fullest.

The current puppet avatar simply controls a long-range large toy, and its practicality is not as good as that of a rock mouse.

Until this day, Yunling came to visit and interrupted Lu Changan's study.

This time, Yun Ling came alone, and her brother Yun Hao was in retreat recently, preparing to build a foundation.

"Master Xu, grandma asked me to come over."

Yun Ling wore a long pink and white dress, bowed her knees, and her voice was as sweet as a bell.

Lu Changan looked at the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, with starry eyes and bright teeth, willow slender waist, delicate snow skin, and pink lip liner, all of which were pure and bright.

This girl's appearance is very different from Guan Qiaozhi's, but the girl's characteristics are similar, and her appearance and temperament are more outstanding.

"There's no need to be too polite, what does Shopkeeper Yun have to say?"

Lu Changan waved his hand with an easy-going tone.

Yunling paid a visit alone, and seemed a little embarrassed when facing Master Jiedan.

The clear and bright eyes glanced at the elegant man, then lowered his head, not daring to look directly at him.

"This is a token from Grandma to you."

Yun Ling took out a purple jade pendant and presented it to Lu Changan with a serious expression.

Looking at the delicate hand that is close at hand.

If Lu Changan glanced at her meaningfully, the alchemy in his hand surged, and he took the jade pendant into his hand.

As soon as the spiritual consciousness came into contact, a simple map appeared in the jade pendant, marking a certain location on the Heyuan Oasis.

When Lu Changan felt the jade pendant, Yunling's face turned slightly rosy.

The reason why I was nervous when I visited Master Xu this time was because she had the intention of probing, and this little cleverness seemed to be discovered by the seniors.

The three previous meetings, the congenial and friendly feeling made Yuling puzzled and curious.

In the first transaction in the stall area, Lu Changan let her take advantage, which was a bit strange.

Grandma once warned her that there are no benefits for no reason in the world, especially the benefits given by those men.

Grandma also said a law: No matter young men, middle-aged people, or old people, there is an eternal heart, and that is to like young and beautiful women.

Lu Changan's behavior that day inevitably made Yuling suspect that this senior really had some thoughts about her.

She decided to try it out: if this Master Xu touched his own hand while receiving the token, it would be with ulterior motives, and it was what her brother said, "Old cows eat tender grass".

Grandma seems to be a little interested in Xu Zhenren and has no objection to it.

If Xu Zhenren behaved wretchedly, even if he got the token and went to the dojo, he would not get permission.

Of course, Yunling is willing to sacrifice a little beauty, mainly because she has a good sense of the elegant and handsome Xu Zhenren.

If she was really in her seventies, she would definitely not take action.

The result of the trial.

Yunling was briefly nervous and surprised at first, and then there was a trace of inexplicable faint disappointment.

"Okay, I already understand."

Lu Changan nodded, and put away the purple jade pendant.

"It's okay, you can go back."

After glancing at the hesitant Yun Ling, Lu Changan sent her away.

dong dong!

Just as the girl's back was about to disappear at the gate of the courtyard, there was movement in Lu Changan's spiritual pet bag.

Xuan water turtle protested.

It wanted to come out to meet and play with Yunling, but Lu Changan did not agree.

"You lazy bastard, want to rebel?"

"It's just a shape-changing technique, I haven't learned it yet, and you want to continue the frontier?"

Lu Changan reprimanded and complained.

In the spiritual pet bag, the Xuan Shui Turtle had a helpless and aggrieved expression, with bubbles popping out of his mouth.

Xuan water turtle is lazy and not aggressive.

Unlike the ground rock rat, who studied diligently and studied at the Beast Master Zhou's family back then, he learned the "shape-changing technique" very early, including some monster fighting techniques and secret techniques.

The inheritance of beast control among the trophies of Huanglang real person, and the secret law knowledge for training pets do not need Lu Changan's supervision, and the rock mouse trains itself.

……

Lu Changan flew out of Fang City, followed the location marked in the jade pendant, and flew to a forested area on the northwest side of the oasis.

Before it settled down, the jade pendant in his hand was flowing with purple crystal patterns.

hum!
Near the mountain forest, a transparent white light flashed across the void.

Suddenly, an antique manor with an area of ​​several tens of acres came into Lu Changan's vision.

The third-order phantom array covering this place distorts the senses of spiritual consciousness.

He even used the Sumeru spell to make the manor, which covers an area of ​​tens of acres, actually occupy a few acres of land in the Heyuan Oasis.

"Small nook, there is no hole in the sky."

Lu Chang'an looked at the scenery in the manor, and the surrounding herbs and spiritual trees formed a garden, which was colorful.There are mountains and water inside, pools, pavilions, and winding paths.

It is a quiet and elegant private dojo.

Among them, the small spiritual veins and the spiritual pressure emitted can reach the third level, which is obviously cultivated the day after tomorrow.

"Master Xu, Duan has been waiting in Shanshui Manor for a long time."

In front of the mansion with the water view of the manor, sitting cross-legged is an elder in a toga who is about 50 years old and has a fat figure.

The man smiled loudly and waved his wide sleeves.

The formation of Shanshui Manor opens a gate of nothingness, and invites Lu Changan to enter.

Judging from the faint fluctuations in alchemy, this mysterious old man with the surname is at least a true alchemy cultivator, not even in the early stage of alchemy.

If it is an ordinary fake real person, he may not dare to enter rashly.

If you don't dare to enter, if you are coy, you will be looked down upon by the other party, and the recommendation matter may be dropped.

"Huh? So it's this grandson!"

Lu Chang'an took a look and narrowed his eyes slightly.Although the appearance of the robed elder has been adjusted, the mana breath cannot be faked.

It's not that he cursed in his heart.

This elder with the "duan surname" who has cultivated alchemy is the grandson of the fourth generation.

"Let Duan wait for a long time."

Lu Changan hesitated for a while, and looked around. This place is not an ashram isolated from the world.

He took a deep breath and flew into Shanshui Manor.

Seeing Lu Changan's serious expression, the elder Duan stroking his beard and smiling slightly approvingly.

In the past six months, he investigated the origin of Xu Zhenren, and it was rumored that he was robbed and killed in the deserted city of Scorpio.

The next time, he will appear in the Heyuan Oasis in poverty.

"Really Xu, please sit down. If you have any doubts, you can ask."

Duan Lao's sleeve robe was raised lightly, and a futon was formed.

In front of the Waterside Mansion, the two sat opposite each other.

"The third-order spiritual vein here seems to have been successfully cultivated not long ago. I don't know how many real people can practice it."

Lu Changan asked a question of concern.

"The small third-order spiritual vein dojo is suitable for a true alchemy cultivator, plus some foundation building and Qi refining junior servants to practice without pressure."

"It would be a bit reluctant to let two true elixir cultivators practice at the same time. But under this spiritual vein dojo, there is also a third-level spirit gathering array. If you invest in spiritual stones for a long time and let two or three true elixir cultivators practice at the same time, there will be no problem. big."

Old Duan was very patient and answered.

Lu Changan nodded, generally small third-order spiritual veins are biased towards personal dojos, and can only accommodate one or two monks of the same level to practice.

"Most of the time, Duan is not in this manor dojo, and goes to various places to run business.

"If Master Xu is willing, you will guard this place and take care of the spirit wood and herbs. Master Xu will help refine some spirit pills from time to time, and train alchemy apprentices as a reward."

"Mr. Duan, do you trust someone Xu to guard this place?"

Lu Changan said curiously.

In the Heyuan Oasis, the small third-level dojo is also a scarce strategic resource.

If other forces annex it, it can be used to win over the real pill for offering.

If there is a brilliant pulse master, they can even migrate to their own third-order spiritual veins, merge and grow.

A fake alchemy real person, guarding the newly cultivated small third-tier dojo, and taking care of the spiritual wood and herbs, does not sound so reliable.
