The onlooker sees the game more clearly than the player involved.
In Mowang Gong's entire life, he only had this one thought.
Even though he only had a shred of his soul left, he was still thinking day and night about how to turn the White Tiger Puppet into a living creature.
Today, Chu Xingyun's appearance shocked Mowang Gong.
Chu Xingyun's knowledge was not inferior to his. In fact, to a certain extent, even Mowang Gong felt inferior. Therefore, he placed his hopes on Chu Xingyun, hoping that Chu Xingyun would be able to untie this knot in his heart.
"It's that simple?" After a moment of silence, Chu Xingyun spat out a word.
This word was not long, only five words, but it made Mowang Gong's heart beat wildly.
However, at the same time, a trace of displeasure surfaced on his face. The problem that he had been studying his entire life was described as simple by this young man in front of him. This made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Then tell me your idea," Mowang Gong shook his head and threw the distracting thoughts out of his mind as he asked.
However, Chu Xingyun did not answer immediately.
He walked to the side of the White Tiger Puppet, looked it up and down a few times, and asked, "Senior Mo, can you tell me how to remove the heart of this White Tiger Puppet?"
"Why do you ask this?" Upon hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Mowang Gong's tone became cold and his eyes were like ice as he stared at Chu Xingyun.
The Heart of the Spirit Puppet was the source of the puppet's power.
This object was similar to the Spirit Sea of an ancient martial art practitioner. It could provide a huge amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, allowing the puppet to move around and explode with unparalleled strength.
Once the Soul Puppet's Heart was damaged or dismantled, the Soul Puppet would become a pile of scrap metal, completely useless. Therefore, when Chu Xingyun mentioned the Soul Puppet's Heart, Mowang Gong's body unconsciously emitted a sense of vigilance.
"Senior Mo, please don't misunderstand. I have absolutely no intention of destroying the White Tiger Puppet. However, if you want the White Tiger Puppet to become a living creature, you must tell me about it." Chu Xingyun's tone was serious and full of certainty.
Mowang Gong hesitated.
He could sense the confidence in Chu Xingyun's eyes. It was as if he had great confidence in this matter. However, he was also somewhat reluctant. He was afraid that the masterpiece he was most proud of would turn into scrap metal.
Mowang Gong's eyes flickered incessantly. He seemed to have sunk into deep thought. Suddenly, his gaze froze. He stretched out his hand and took out a scroll. "This is the blueprint of the White Tiger Puppet. What you want should be on it."
After speaking, he took a deep breath and solemnly handed the scroll to Chu Xingyun.
Chu Xingyun took the scroll and glanced at it. Then, he walked to the White Tiger Puppet's side. He placed his hand on the White Tiger Puppet's back and nodded. "Senior Mo, you can rest assured. I will not let you down."
Swoosh!
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xingyun's body disappeared without any warning.
Furthermore, the White Tiger Puppet also disappeared. Mowang Gong could not even sense a trace of its aura. One person and one puppet disappeared from his sight just like that.
At this moment, Mowang Gong suddenly felt as if he had been toyed with. It was as if his heart had stopped beating. Apart from the sound of his breathing, there was no other sound in the spacious space. The atmosphere was extremely strange.
Buzz!
Just as Mowang Gong was about to roar in anger, two figures appeared in front of him. They were Chu Xingyun and the White Tiger Puppet, who had just disappeared.
"Just now, you …"
Mowang Gong took a step forward. He was about to interrogate Chu Xingyun about what had happened. However, before he could finish his words, his gaze landed on the White Tiger Puppet. His eyes widened and his entire body stiffened in mid-air.
At this moment, the White Tiger Puppet's appearance did not change at all. However, the life force it emitted was stronger. Its eyes were filled with a divine light and its aura was intimidating. It was as if it was a real living creature.
"You, how did you do it?" Even an ancient expert like Mo Wanggong couldn't help but stutter when he saw the scene before him. His breath was as heavy as a cow's.
He had spent most of his life and tried hundreds of millions of experiments just to activate the White Tiger Puppet's life force and make it a living creature.
However, this difficult problem was solved by Chu Xingyun in just a breath's time. Mowang Gong was very puzzled and could not wait to know the answer.
"Senior Mo, you already know the answer to this question. You don't need to ask me." Chu Xingyun said something strange, causing Mowang Gong to be even more puzzled. He already knew the answer?
At this moment, Chu Xingyun smiled faintly. He flipped his palm and took out a golden jade.
This golden jade was not big. It was only the size of an adult's fist. As soon as it appeared, it emitted an extremely dense Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth. The Spiritual Energy formed a wind that wreaked havoc in the entire forging room.
"You removed the Heart of the Puppet?" Mowang Gong was so shocked that his eyes bulged. He was very familiar with the golden jade in Chu Xingyun's hand. It was the Heart of the White Tiger Puppet.
He stared at the heart of the Spirit Puppet, then turned his head and looked at the White Tiger Spirit Puppet that was full of vitality. He felt dizzy. "What is going on? You took the Spirit Puppet's heart, so why is the White Tiger still able to move freely?"
Puzzled.
Mowang Gong was completely puzzled.
Everything in front of him almost overturned his understanding of common sense.
Without the Heart of the Puppet, the White Tiger Puppet could still move freely. Moreover, the Life Force on its body did not disappear. Instead, it became more vigorous.
Chu Xingyun smiled and said, "Without the heart of the Soul Puppet, it naturally cannot move. However, the white tiger in front of us is not a Soul Puppet. Even if the heart of the Soul Puppet is removed, it can still move freely. Isn't this very normal?"
Hearing Chu Xingyun's words, Mowang Gong's body trembled. He had a sudden realization.
"The reason why living beings of Heaven and Earth can survive is because they rely on the Life Force in their bodies. Even without the nourishment of the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth, as long as there is a trace of Life Force in their bodies, they can continue to live. Therefore, after I removed the Heart of the Puppet, I injected the Life Force of the Phoenix Blood Essence into the White Tiger's body to strengthen the Life Force in its body."
As Chu Xingyun spoke, he stretched out his hand and waved his palm. Immediately, he cut off the Life Force of the Phoenix Blood Essence.
Crack!
The White Tiger's body trembled and fell from the sky. However, there was still a weak Life Force in its body. It was like a candle flame in the cold wind, bitterly holding on.
"Even after I removed the Life Force, the White Tiger did not turn into a pile of scrap metal. This means that from the beginning, this White Tiger was not a Puppet. It possessed Life Force and was a true living being!"
Chu Xingyun's words were like a heavy hammer, causing Mowang Gong to tremble even more. It turned out that from the moment he implanted the White Tiger's remnant soul, the White Tiger had already broken away from the category of a Puppet. It was a true living being, a living being.
However, Mowang Gong did not understand this. He had spent most of his life and spent countless amounts of effort. Little did he know that he had already fulfilled the great wish in his heart.
Seeing Mowang Gong's appearance, Chu Xingyun sighed softly and said, "Senior Mo, there is an ancient saying that the onlooker sees more clearly than the onlooker. After you implanted the White Tiger's remnant soul, the Life Force has completely muddled your mind. In your heart, the White Tiger is too important, even more important than your life. You spend all day studying it, afraid that this Life Force will be destroyed."
"Because of this, you have even forgotten the simplest difference between a Puppet and a living being. This is why you have been puzzled for so long and have not been able to find the true answer."
"The simplest difference!"
Mowang Gong's eyes shone brightly. He raised his head and let out a burst of wild laughter. A teardrop slid down his cheek and dripped onto the White Tiger's enormous body.
This teardrop was filled with far too many emotions. There was joy, regret, and lamentation. Mixed together, this ancient expert who had lived for tens of thousands of years could not help but weep and sigh.
After a long while, Mowang Gong stopped crying.
