Chapter 1202: Refining A Puppet With A Heart, Heading To The Great Ten Thousand Mountains, The Luo Hou Ancestral Land
The Wooden Puppet Refining Technique was a cultivation technique he drew from the gacha some time ago. It was a technique combining various spiritual woods with blood essence to make a puppet equivalent to a clone, which was very mysterious.
Chu Kuangren was going to experiment with it now.
He pointed out a sword hand sign and slashed it down at the Fusang Tree he obtained from the Honorable Yokai Hall, causing many leaves and branches to fall.
Then, Chu Kuangren took out some of its spiritual power.
Under his control, the Fusang Tree and other spiritual woods gradually transformed into a human-shaped puppet that had no facial features.
After that, Chu Kuangren pointed his sword hand sign at his chest, where a large amount of blood mist spurted out, and dug out his heart abruptly. The scene was horrifying.
“In terms of blood essence, nothing can compare to blood at the heart.” Chu Kuangren smiled.

While speaking, the big hole in his chest rapidly recovered, and a new heart had grown.
Such was the power of the Indestructible Physique!

Unless Chu Kuangren had lost his spiritual will, even an Arch Gilded Embodier would not be able to destroy his body.
…
“Go!”
Chu Kuangren threw out his heart, which was still beating in his hand and gleaming with Immortal Spark, to merge with the human-shaped puppet.
Immediately, an incomparably mysterious energy fluctuation emanated from the human-shaped puppet. It gradually took the appearance of Chu Kuangren.
The moment Chu Kuangren applied a strand of Immortal Consciousness onto the puppet, it opened its eyes, and a powerful Immortal’s Core energy spread from it.
Its power was even higher than that of a Higher Third-grade Heavenly Immortal!
Generally, the strength of a refined puppet depended on the power and quantity of blood essence invested by the refiner, and the blood essence of an ordinary cultivator was limited.
After all, it was about lifespan, foundation, and so on.
Losing ten percent of the blood essence was extremely serious for a cultivator. Therefore, although the Wooden Puppet Refining Technique was powerful, other cultivators feared that losing too much blood essence, which would, in turn, affect their future.
As such, having ten percent of their true forms’ strength was considered good enough for a refined puppet.
However, nobody had ever, like Chu Kuangren, refined a puppet with a heart.
Only Chu Kuangren, a freak with the Indestructible Physique, could do so.
In fact, his refined puppet had extremely powerful combat strength as it possessed thirty percent of his strength!
“Hm. It’s not enough.”
“This puppet can’t fully activate my blood from the heart. Logically speaking, the Wooden Puppet Refining Technique has a limitation. It can only make a puppet with fifty percent of the true form’ strength.”
“It seems to be due to the ingredients,” mumbled Chu Kuangren.
Although the Fusang Tree before him was a rare Immortal tree, it was only a branch of the real Fusang Tree and was very much different from it.
“Perhaps the effect of the Wooden Puppet Refining Technique can only be brought into full play by finding a real Fusang Tree or an Immortal tree that is no weaker than it.” There was a hint of excitement in Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
He was very optimistic about the Wooden Puppet Refining Technique.
Others were afraid of losing their blood essence, but he had no such scruples at all. As long as he had sufficient Immortal wood ingredients, he could refine puppets infinitely, including puppets with half his strength!
It was incredibly impressive!
Even ten percent of Chu Kuangren’s strength could put him at the top among the Heavenly Champions, let alone half his strength.
Except for those monstrous Heavenly Champions such as the Young Imperial Commanders and Embodier successors, none of the Heavenly Champions could compete with someone who had half his strength!
Chu Kuangren could mass-produce such puppets.
That thought was a terrifying one!
It could only be achieved by combining the Indestructible Physique and the Wooden Puppet Refining Technique, which was beyond the imagination of countless people!
“I’ll take Lil Fox to the Great Ten Thousand Mountains tomorrow while you go to the Demonic Dao’s Luo Hou Ancestral Land to check the situation first.”
The Demonic Dao’s Luo Hou Ancestral Land was a place he learned from the Soul Vanquisher’s memory, and he was very interested in it.
After all, he might find something from there since Luo Hou was called the founder of the Demonic Dao in the ancient Immortal times.
“Alright, my Lord,” said Chu Kuangren’s puppet.
There might be some danger as the Demonic Dao had the Luo Hou Ancestral Land under their territory, so it was better to let the puppet explore the situation first.
It would not be a big thing even if it were destroyed anyway.
…
The next day, Chu Kuangren took Lil Fox to the Great Ten Thousand Mountains while Chu Kuangren’s puppet departed to the Luo Hou Ancestral Land.
The Great Ten Thousand Mountains, where the Immortal World’s yokai lived, was off the beaten track. Even those top-notched Immortals would not set foot here unless it were necessary.
Although humans and yokai were not antagonistic, their thoughts differed due to their different tribes. As such, they would still guard against each other.
Swish!
Two figures emerged in the sky above the Great Ten Thousand Mountains.
It was Chu Kuangren and Lil Fox.
“It looks like I’ll have to ask someone where Tushan is,” mumbled Chu Kuangren.
The Great Ten Thousand Mountains were vast, and any of the mountains here were of the scale of a star. Therefore, searching for Tushan’s location with Immortal Consciousness was not an easy thing.
Moreover, Chu Kuangren was a human cultivator. If he were to blatantly use his Immortal Consciousness on a large scale in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains to spy on other territories, it would undoubtedly serve as a form of provocation to the Great Ten Thousand Mountains’ yokai.
Although Chu Kuangren was not afraid, there was no need to cause trouble.
Boom, boom!
At that moment, two different yokai clans were fighting in one of the Great Ten Thousand Mountains.
It was not an uncommon sight. There were countless clans within the Yokai Tribes in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains, and because they, more than the humans, believed in the survival of the fittest, conflicts occurred frequently.
Right now, two ordinary beast clans were battling it out, and their strength was relatively weak.
The strongest leader among them was only a Ninth-grade Heavenly Immortal.
“I shall ask them for directions,” murmured Chu Kuangren.
With that, his figure flashed and disappeared along with Lil Fox.
The two beast clans, who were fighting in full swing, suddenly felt a terrifying aura enveloping themselves and others.
“This strength… What’s going on?!”
“What a horrifying and domineering aura. Who is this?”
All the beasts were slightly startled.
Soon after, they saw Chu Kuangren fluttering before them.
“A human?”
“It is a human!”
“He’s very young. He must be the top-notched sky-pride among the humans, and the force behind him is probably no weaker than those of the Ancient Immortal Beast Ruler clan,” A dog-headed beast said in a trembling voice.
Most humans divided beasts into divine beasts, wild beasts, and the like. However, in the Great Ten Thousand Mountains, the beasts divided their forces into the Ordinary Beast clan, Great Beast clan, Giant Beast clan, and the top-notched Beast Ruler clan!
For example, manticore, sabertooth, nine-headed Snakelet… They were all under the Beast Ruler clan.
Their bloodline was far stronger than ordinary beasts and had better cultivation conditions than other beasts since they were born.
