A lifelike metal dragon raised its head and waved its claws. It looked mighty and ferocious. A terrifying aura spread out from it, as if a peerless beast was hibernating. Once it awakened, it would definitely shake the heavens and earth.
"This is …"
Du Shaofu's eyes trembled. The huge creature looked as if it wanted to soar into the clouds. The terrifying aura was invisible. It quietly occupied the mountain peak, making people's hearts tremble.
Du Shaofu went forward and touched the huge creature in front of him. Its entire body was covered in scales.
These were real dragon scales that had been refined. Under the reflection of the sun, they shone brightly. They had been covered in rocks and ashes, and now they had appeared.
"Puppet, this is a Dragon Puppet!"
Du Shaofu was shocked. After looking at it for a while, he could tell that this was a terrifying Dragon Puppet that was refined from a dragon's body.
However, this dragon's body should be a mixed-blood dragon. However, the aura it had when it was alive indicated that it had reached the Beast Emperor Realm.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to emit such a terrifying and invisible pressure in this half-finished state.
However, to be able to refine a Dragon Puppet with the body of a Beast Emperor, such methods and boldness made Du Shaofu secretly shocked. As expected of the Megrez Palace. Normal people wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
What Du Shaofu knew about puppets was recorded in the Secret Soldier Art and the Holy Body Art.
However, he had studied it with Yi Wuming before, but he had never refined it himself.
Refining puppets was one of the terrifying methods of Weapon Talisman Masters.
However, there were very few Weapon Symbol Masters who could refine puppets, not to mention those who were proficient in puppets.
"Secret Soldier Art, Holy Body Art."
After a while, Du Shaofu's expression became more and more shocked.
While looking at the huge creature, Du Shaofu found out that this Dragon Puppet not only used the refining techniques of the Secret Soldier Art, but also incorporated some of the techniques of the Holy Body Art.
There were quite a number of symbol arrays inscribed on the puppet's body, causing the strength of this dragon shaped puppet to be much stronger than this mixed-blood dragon.
However, the dragon-shaped puppet made from the Secret Soldier Art and the Sacred Body Art was only a half-finished product. It was one final step away from being a complete success.
In order to complete this last step, one had to be proficient in both the Secret Weapon Technique and the Sacred Body Technique. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to succeed.
Du Shaofu knew both the Secret Soldier Art and the Sacred Body Art, but he was not familiar with puppets. If he wanted to successfully refine this semi-finished product, he would have to slowly figure it out.
"I'm interested in studying the art of puppetry. Let's begin."
Du Shaofu muttered to himself as he immersed himself in the study of the art of puppetry.
Du Shaofu had long been interested in studying and comprehending the art of puppetry.
The Art of Puppetry was a terrifying technique.
It was rumored that some terrifying puppets had once appeared in this world, causing even the strongest experts to die.
In the Ancient Era, those rumored peak Artifact Symbol Masters relied on the puppets they made to stand proudly in the world. Even cultivators feared them and did not dare to provoke them.
The continuous mountain range gave off an ancient aura.
At dusk, the setting sun was like blood. In an elegant courtyard, a slender woman about twenty years old stood silently. She wore a long skirt and looked at the setting sun, lost in thought for a long time.
"Senior Sister Zhu Xue, I knew you would be here."
A young man wearing a long bluish-purple robe appeared. Looking at the delicate woman before him, his gaze dimmed as he sighed and said, "Are you thinking about Brother Shaofu again?"
"Say, how could a person like him leave just like that? Why do I keep feeling that he is definitely still alive? That I will definitely have a chance to see him again."
Zhu Xue softly said, "Or am I thinking too much? This is just my misconception."
"No, if this is what others think, they may be thinking too much. But you are different. Your Spiritual Root is special. As long as it is what you think, it will most likely happen." Hearing that, Guo Ming immediately revealed a happy expression.
"That's right. My Spiritual Root is special. Whatever I think will definitely happen. He is definitely not dead yet."
Zhu Xue's eyes carried a smile as she happily said, "I will also go to the Stone City. I want to go there and take a look."
"Senior Sister Zhu Xue, you can't go there right now. Tomorrow is the day you become the sect master's adopted daughter. Experts from various big forces will come. Even the One Valley, Two Schools, Three Sects and Three Schools will send people over. You cannot leave the sect for even half a step. Otherwise, the sect master will definitely find me to settle accounts."
Guo Ming immediately bitterly smiled as he shook his head and said, "As for the Stone City, I will send people over to check the situation. Once there is news, we will naturally know."
"Okay then." Zhu Xue nodded.
"Senior Sister, soon, the grand event of the Central State will begin."
Guo Ming said softly. His eyes were filled with yearning. That grand event of the Central State was enough to move all young people.
Zhu Xue looked at the sky in front of the courtyard. Her eyebrows were curved, and her face was beautiful. She murmured softly, "If he is here, he will be able to shine in the grand event of the Central Plains, and his name will resound throughout the Central Plains!"
Spirit Realm, Megrez Palace. Half a month had passed. Regarding the return of the young hall master, the entire Megrez Palace was abuzz with all kinds of discussions.
The surroundings of the Azure Dragon Peak had long been isolated. No one could approach it.
"It has already been half a month. I wonder how it is."
On a mountain peak, elder Zhu Xiu muttered softly as he looked in the direction of the Azure Dragon Peak. His expression was somewhat nervous.
"Is there something on the Azure Dragon Peak? I didn't know for so many years," a middle-aged man said doubtfully.
In front of the enormous object, Du Shaofu formed a seal in his hand. Blazing flames spurted out from his palm and wrapped around the enormous object.
Under the blazing high temperature, there were no spiritual stoves or talisman cauldrons to form. But under the high temperature, the surface of the enormous dragon-shaped puppet was full of flickering talisman characters.
Under the cover of the flames, the entire dragon-shaped puppet became fiery red. Faint dragon roars could be heard, as if it was alive.
This dragon-shaped puppet had long been refined. It was just that there was one last step, which was to set up a 'puppet spirit'.
There were two kinds of puppet spirits. One was condensed from the soul of a demon beast or a human's soul.
The other was condensed directly from the soul of an artifact symbol master.
But the second method of condensing a puppet spirit required an enormous amount of soul power for an artifact symbol master. It was not something that an ordinary artifact symbol master could support.
However, the second method of condensing a Puppet Spirit was even more precise for a Weapon Symbol Master in the future.
A puppet spirit that was condensed from one's Spiritual Soul was undoubtedly equivalent to one's second self. It was like one's left and right arm. When they worked together, they would be able to reach the most perfect state and be able to unleash the strongest power of the puppet.
At the moment, Du Shaofu wanted to set up a puppet inside the dragon-shaped puppet, and use the second method to set up a puppet spirit.
"Chi …"
A short time later, his hand seals changed, and Du Shaofu's figure rose up, directly arriving above the head of the dragon-shaped puppet. His five fingers bent slightly, and then, with a light flick, a burst of energy was released, shooting inside the head.
"Aooo …"
A faint dragon roar could be heard, and the dragon-shaped puppet trembled, as if coming to life. Its whole body was filled with an awe-inspiring aura, and the fluctuating talisman arrays on its surface spread a terrifying aura.
As his hand seals changed, a white light spread out from between Du Shaofu's eyebrows, emitting an ancient and vigorous fluctuation.
This was the soul power from the spiritual light ball in Du Shaofu's mind. Under the control of Du Shaofu, his hand seals were formed, and he gently tossed it, turning it into a beam of light, which then drilled into the head of the dragon-shaped puppet.
Seemingly due to the entry of the soul power from Du Shaofu's mind, the dragon-shaped puppet's tightly shut eyes suddenly opened. Its lantern-like eyes were filled with a gloomy and awe-inspiring coldness.
Du Shaofu was not surprised by this scene. What he needed to do next was to completely condense a puppet spirit in the puppet's body, and then communicate with it to activate the entire puppet.
Wanting to reach this step was not something that could be done in a short period of time. This required a process, as well as a powerful and vigorous Spiritual Energy. Ordinary Symbol Masters could only look on in the dust, and could only sigh at their inadequacy.
Du Shaofu continued to condense the puppet spirit. It took a total of five days. As the puppet spirit was condensed, the dragon-shaped puppet was filled with more and more vitality. Talisman scripts flowed on the surface of its body, emitting a faint luster.
Time continued to pass, and he still had not succeeded in setting up the puppet spirit.
The fusion of the puppet's body and the puppet spirit required a perfect degree of compatibility.
This kind of thing could not be rushed. Only when the puppet and the puppet spirit reached the most compatible time could it be completely successful.
However, this was also the most important test for a Artifact Symbol Master. Once the puppet and the puppet spirit reached the most compatible time, such an opportunity would not come again, and the entire puppet would be destroyed.
Du Shaofu knew the importance of this, and he had been very careful, not daring to be the slightest bit careless.
Another half a day passed. When the sun was setting in the west and the setting sun was as red as blood, Du Shaofu, who had been floating in front of the dragon-shaped puppet's head, suddenly trembled. His hand seals changed rapidly, and a trace of joy surged out of his eyes. The perfect time he had been waiting for had finally arrived.
"I'm sorry everyone for the past few days. I've only updated one chapter, and my body really can't write more. It's the last day, so I'll be thick-skinned and ask for some flowers.
Tomorrow is a new month, and Little Yu will resume his normal updates. At the same time, he will add more chapters. Once again, I sincerely apologize to everyone for the past few days. "
