Chapter 174 Yuanying Late Stage Puppet! The Glue Man Dayan God!

More than ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past ten years, although with the help of Tianyuan Dan, Li Mufeng still failed to break through the late Nascent Soul stage, which really made him depressed.

Old Monster Tianhen broke through to the late Nascent Soul stage very easily.

However, it seems that the reason why it was so easy for Old Monster Tianhen to break through was definitely because he had made many attempts before, and it also had a lot to do with his two or three hundred years of accumulation.

However, I have just cultivated to the peak of the middle stage of Nascent Soul, and there are still some slight gaps. It may take some time for me to settle down.

In addition to failing to successfully advance to the late Nascent Soul stage, another piece of news also forced Li Mufeng to come out of seclusion.

Xin Ruyin brought news that the deadline for Dayan God seemed to be approaching, and the other party hoped that Li Mufeng could refine a late Nascent Soul puppet as soon as possible.

Having already promised the other party before, Li Mufeng naturally would not go back on his word.

Somewhere in the Wanling Mountains.

"Boy, if you don't come out, I will really think you are going to break your promise!" The voice of Dayan God was a little unhappy.

"Didn't the senior deceive the junior? What do you mean by impending failure? Aren't you still fine, old man? At least you can hold on for a few more years." Li Mufeng replied calmly.

"You kid don't really want to wait until I'm about to die to refine the puppet!" Hearing Li Mufeng's words, Dayan God's voice became sharp, like a cat whose foot was stepped on.

"I have spent my entire life working on this puppet. If I don't see its power before I die, I will never rest in peace!"

"I say, old man, you always brag about how great you are, but you spent so much time researching a puppet in the late Nascent Soul stage. It seems that you are just so-so. I thought you researched a puppet in the Spiritualization stage."

Hearing the hateful voice of Lord Dayan, Li Mufeng added his attack.

“Hmph! If I really figure it out, can I find the corresponding materials in this human world?” Dayan God, who had been accustomed to being hit by Li Mufeng too many times, retorted.

"These materials are only enough for one refining. If there is a mistake in the refining of the key parts, there will be no time to find a replacement. I can't be sure of the success rate. After all, I am refining for you, and if I misunderstand a little bit, the refining may fail."

As soon as he entered the secret room, Li Mufeng pulled out a bamboo tube and stood it upright in front of him, and said calmly.

It was as if the words of stabbing you in the back had never been said before.

"Of course I know about this. Before refining, I will explain the refining method to you in detail, and repeatedly question you about your understanding. I will not let you start until you have mastered it. Before I explain, you should take a look at this jade slip. It contains the general information about my puppet refining. You should comprehend it as a whole first."

The voice of Dayan God came from the bamboo tube. He seemed to have thought about this matter a long time ago and looked confident. Then the lid of the bamboo tube made a light "bang" sound, and a white jade slip flew out of it and was grabbed by Li Mufeng.

"Since senior has a clear idea in mind, I feel relieved." Li Mufeng nodded without saying much. He immediately sat down cross-legged and immersed his consciousness in the jade slip.

As time passed, the expression on Li Mufeng's face began to change constantly. It had to be said that this old fellow, Lord Dayan, was really quite capable.

"Hehe, kid, are you surprised, right? I have something even more surprising for you." A smug voice came from the Dayan God in the bamboo tube, and then another jade slip flew out.

"The secret art of soul-splitting?" Li Mufeng murmured when he saw the jade slip thrown out by Lord Dayan.

"When I was trapped in the puppet because of the spirit parasitism, I naturally did not do nothing. I spent thousands of years researching a method to transfer the spirit from the puppet without borrowing magic power."

"As a result, this method was too difficult and failed, but we discovered another secret technique to split the spirit. This soul-splitting technique is very different from the ordinary mind-splitting technique. It is the real way to split the souls of our cultivators."

"When the time comes, I will split my spirit into two. One part will carry most of the spirit's power and merge into the puppet, while the other part will carry emotions, memories and other things and dissipate, returning to the path of reincarnation."

Dayan God explained to Li Mufeng.

"Senior, what you are doing is equivalent to deceiving the heaven, and it will definitely not go as you wish." After hearing the explanation of Dayan God, Li Mufeng said lightly.

"Cultivation is to go against the will of heaven, why bother about these things?" Hearing Li Mufeng's words, Dayan God said nonchalantly.

"I think you are good in everything except that you are too respectful of heaven and earth. You will not be able to cultivate to a higher level if you continue like this." He then gave Li Mufeng some advice as if he were an old senior.

"Haha." Hearing this, Li Mufeng smiled and asked in return, "If there is no man, the sky is still the sky. If there is no sky, can there still be man?"

Hearing Li Mufeng's question, Lord Dayan was speechless for a moment and could only change the subject, urging: "Don't be distracted, hurry up and learn the art of puppetry."

More than half a year passed in a flash, and Li Mufeng completed refining the last part of the puppet.

"Tsk tsk, boy Mu Feng, your weapon refining skills are definitely the best I have ever seen! There is absolutely no one in the entire human world who can compare to you. It is really a blessing that my puppet can be refined! My puppet, plus your weapon refining skills! The power of this puppet is definitely a level higher than I expected!"

Lord Dayan looked at the puppet parts refined by Li Mufeng and marveled at them.

"It's just so-so." Li Mufeng replied lazily and then asked.

"Senior, I'm sure you have thought of the magic weapon that the puppet uses, right?"

"If I were to fight with bare hands, I would be no match for those cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage."

"Hehe, you naturally don't have to worry about that. To be honest, you have so many top-grade materials on you. I haven't collected so many when I was alive!" Lord Dayan chuckled, and then he told Li Mufeng about his plan.

"The lapis lazuli chain on your body can be mixed with some Gangyin to make a protective shield for the puppet."

"Moreover, you have even collected the Divine Mud. This is truly amazing!"

"The Divine Mud is known as the Shape-shifting Paste. It is said that it can be transformed at will and refined into a magical tool. It also has the special ability to repair itself after being damaged. It is a rare material for refining complex magical tools."

"Plus, you have a lot of wealth, and if you mix it with some other materials, you can refine Chiling Soft Jade."

"After being refined, this divine mud can not only maximize its deformation and repair effects, but also absorb the magical attacks of cultivators. Once an attack full of spiritual power touches this object, it can be weakened by more than half. The only drawback is that it is afraid of attacks from the object itself. After all, it has no defensive ability at all. But just because of this, the value of this mud is not much inferior to that of Gengjing."

"This divine mud combined with your Gangyin is naturally an excellent material for refining the puppet's body. Even without using any defensive magic weapon, not many people in the human world can easily destroy the shell made of these two materials."

"Senior, you really don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. I got that Huayi Divine Mud from the Suanni King's Court with great difficulty, and you just let me use it without saying anything."

Hearing what Li Mufeng said, Dayan God Lord retorted, "Why should I use it? Anyway, you are the one who will enjoy it in the end. I even took out my own spirit, so what's wrong with taking a little from you?"

After that, he continued to introduce. "With the Jiaolong materials you have, you can completely imitate the Jiao bow! Refine a thunder and fire bow! And match it with the thunder arrows made from the golden thunder bamboo, and the fire arrows made from the feathers of the Haoyang Bird and the Golden Sun Crow. Just thinking about the power, gaga gaga!"

As if talking about something he was very proud of, Lord Dayan couldn't help but burst into wild laughter.

Seeing the appearance of Lord Dayan, Li Mufeng was reminded of those plastic guys in his previous life.
"That's right! There is also the Five Elements Jade's Five Elements Shield, plus the sword made from the North Pole Crystal."

"Add to that your weapon-refining skills that surpass those of the rest of the world. It is absolutely impossible for a Nascent Soul cultivator to defeat this puppet of mine head-on!"

"Hahahaha—I am indeed a genius!"

Looking at the wildly laughing Dayan God, Li Mufeng said something lightly, and the pride and arrogance on the other's face disappeared without a trace.

"Senior, if I take out a magic weapon made from the golden magnetic wood that can exert the golden magnetic light, how will you respond?"

"This..." Upon hearing this, Dayan God's proud expression suddenly deflated. Although this puppet used many top-grade materials, there were quite a few metal ore materials among them, such as Gangyin, and many of its components were made of metal ore materials. If it encountered the golden magnetic heavy light, it would not be directly scrapped, but its power would definitely be greatly reduced.

"There shouldn't be such a thing still in existence, right? It's not like I haven't traveled to the human world before. I've even been to a place as far away as Dajin. But the legend of the golden magnetic spirit tree has long been extinct in ancient times."

After hesitating for a while, Lord Dayan said this.

"Oh, really? It just so happens that I have a magic bead made from golden magnetic spirit wood." A golden light flashed in Li Mufeng's hand, and a bead that was somewhat similar to the wooden bead made from the soul-nourishing wood appeared in his hand. However, unlike the black color of the soul-nourishing wood bead, this wooden bead was light gold.

"You kid really have everything!" Seeing the wooden beads that Li Mufeng took out, Dayan God smacked his lips.

After observing the surroundings for a while, Dayan Divine Lord shook his head and said, "Your bead is too small, and the golden magnetic light it releases is too little and the magnetic force is too weak. If my puppet opens the Five Elements Shield, it will not be affected at all."

"If you encounter the Golden Magnetic Spirit Tree in the future, you can figure it out yourself. Anyway, I've already seen the power of puppets and the path to reincarnation by then, so it's none of my business. There's no such thing as perfection in this world. When I was researching puppets, the Golden Magnetic Spirit Tree had already become extinct, and no one said it still existed in this world. If you bring it up now and ask me to figure it out, I won't get any results in a short time. You're just a troublemaker."

Then, Lord Dayan excitedly introduced other parts of the puppet to Li Mufeng.

After hearing the end, Li Mufeng frowned, seemed a little dissatisfied, and spoke.

"Senior, I found a problem with your puppet."

"You say." Dayan God was a little confused. How could there be any problems with such a perfect puppet of his?

"Your puppet can't transform!" Li Mufeng said as a matter of course, "For example, when I want to use a flying magic weapon, it can transform into a dragon and carry me flying in the sky. When I need it to fight, it can transform from a dragon to a human form."

“This is it, and then this.”

Li Mufeng then used his magical powers to project an image, showing his thoughts to Lord Dayan.

After reading it, Lord Dayan's eyes lit up, "What a genius idea! Why didn't I think of this when I designed the puppet? What a mistake."

"How is it? Senior, can we change it now?" Li Mufeng asked.

"No." Dayan Divine Lord rejected directly, "The way of puppets is not as simple as imagined. I don't have much time left and I don't have time to study it."

"Just follow my instructions."

"Okay." Li Mufeng nodded, then took out the things that Lord Dayan had just mentioned from his storage bag and started refining it again.

Almost half a year passed.

On this day, Li Mufeng stood in the middle of the secret room with his eyes closed. In front of him, a human-shaped object with shining silver light appeared and floated in the air.

"Hehe, I have spent most of my life on puppetry. It is my original wish to make my soul and this puppet become one. Besides, I will not use the Soul Splitting Technique. The deadline is approaching, so why hesitate?"

"You don't have to persuade me anymore."

“The Dayan Jue has also been passed down. Although Lin Yi’s aptitude is not as good as mine, he can follow you. Maybe he can go further than I do in this life. The Qianzhu Sect will surely flourish in his hands.” Lord Dayan chuckled and said nonchalantly.

"Oh! Well, it's really hard to find good employees like you who pay to work and are willing to devote their energy to the union." Li Mufeng shook his head and said with a little regret.

"Since you are so determined, I won't say much. I hope everything goes well for you."

Lord Dayan laughed a few times, and suddenly a green light flashed from the middle of the bamboo tube, and it split into two halves out of thin air. A little man shining with golden light suddenly appeared there.

This little man is a puppet several inches in size, made of neither gold nor wood, and extremely exquisite. He vaguely resembles a middle-aged man who has been shrunk hundreds of times, with an elegant appearance.

At this moment, the little man's eyes flashed green and he sat cross-legged.

A low incantation was immediately heard, and a green light flew out of the little boy's mouth, turning into the size of a fist, covering his body.

"This Lord Dayan is really a possessed guy." Seeing this scene, Li Mufeng's mouth twitched.

As the spell became more rapid, the green light became increasingly blinding, almost impossible to look directly at.

Li Mufeng narrowed his eyes, his pupils shrank slightly, and blue light flashed.

Then Lord Dayan shouted in pain, causing the entire secret room to buzz.

As Li Mufeng's expression changed, the green light suddenly split into two. The big one floated directly towards the silver puppet, while the small one flashed and flew into the little man's mouth again, reappearing the shape of the little puppet.

But at this time, the little man had his head slightly lowered and his eyes were dim.

Seeing this, Li Mufeng did not dare to delay. He tapped the silver puppet with his fingers several times. Suddenly, the humanoid puppet opened its mouth, and more than ten thin silver threads shot out from its mouth, which immediately drew the split light ball into it and pulled it into its body.

Then the whole puppet's silver light shone brightly, and its figure began to tremble non-stop.

"So this is what it feels like to have a split soul. It's really amazing. I'm afraid I'm the only cultivator in the world who can experience this feeling." The big-eyed god's wild laughter suddenly came from the little man, but his internal energy was obviously weak, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

"Awesome!" Li Mufeng fully affirmed the Dayan God's thirst for knowledge.

The other party's answer is like wanting to experience what it feels like to be torn into pieces by five horses.
