Chapter 696: Cultivating Puppet Technique
In a cave house on the mountain behind Yunbi Peak, Shen Ruiling sat quietly on the mat in the training room, eyes closed, like a motionless statue.
In his hand he was holding the cyan jade slip that recorded the mysterious puppet technique, and his consciousness was completely immersed in the incomparably mysterious puppet technique.
As the research on this puppet secret technique deepened, Shen Ruiling gained a new understanding of the puppet technique, a rare immortal cultivation technique in the Lingnan world of immortality, and at the same time became more and more aware of the true value of this puppet secret technique.
Strictly speaking, puppet art is only a branch of the art of refining. It relies on the art of refining, but it is very different from the traditional art of refining.
This puppet secret technique in Shen Ruiling's hands contains two parts in total, one part is the refining of the puppet, and the other part is the method to control the puppet.
The former requires the cultivator to have a certain refining foundation, and then learn a specific puppet refining technique to be able to refine puppet beasts of various shapes.
The latter practice requires the cultivator to have a strong soul power, and to be able to attach his own consciousness to the puppet, so that he can further control the puppet that has been refined.
According to this puppet secret technique, the power of the puppet technique is not only based on the strength of a single puppet, but also on the coordinated attacks of multiple puppets.
For example, a puppet of Jindan stage strength is indeed powerful, but when facing ten or even hundreds of puppets of the foundation-building stage, the latter is still more powerful.
When Shen Ruiling saw this, a shocking expression appeared in his eyes. Obviously, he was deeply shocked by the use of such a puppet.
If you can really control hundreds of puppets at the foundation stage at once, then even if you encounter Jindan Zhenren, the latter will probably choose to shy away.
Therefore, it is not difficult to see from this place that the real core of the puppet secret technique lies in the method of controlling the puppet, and the puppet refining in the first half is not so important.
Of course, for Shen Ruiling, who was just beginning to come into contact with the secret art of puppets, it was obvious that he still needed to learn from the most basic methods of refining puppets.
And puppet refining skills are naturally inseparable from the craft of refining.
However, after some tests on the inheritance island, his level of refining can be said to be entry-level, and it is not a problem to refine some second-order instruments by hand.
I don't know how long it took, Shen Ruiling who was sitting quietly moved slightly, the closed eyes slowly opened, and a bright light flashed in those deep eyes.
As his thoughts moved, a large number of refining materials appeared in front of him out of thin air, but the quality of these materials was not very good, and they were all low-level materials of the first and second orders.
After all, Shen Ruiling was only just beginning to get into puppet art, so he naturally refined the lowest-level practice hands first? Even if he failed, he would only waste these low-level materials, and he would not feel any distress.
But if you directly use third-order spiritual materials to refine third-order puppets? If this fails? The loss will be huge.
I saw that a red flame suddenly burst out from Shen Ruiling's palm? He wrapped a large piece of [Hundred Refined Iron], and began to quench the impurities in it? Change its shape.
After about a stick of incense? A dark puppet embryo was finished, and he continued to make sure not to refine the puppet's limbs and head.
For the limbs of this puppet, Shen Ruiling chose two pairs of claws of second-order low-grade monsters, and after tempering these four claws? He added some metal spiritual materials appropriately to enhance its hardness.
......
Just like this? After a busy day, a dog-like puppet beast appeared in the cave.
Looking at the dissimilar organ puppet beast in front of him, Shen Ruiling nodded slightly, and seemed to be very satisfied with the results of his day's labor.
However, at present this puppet is only a defective product, and the last step is still missing.
After resting for a while? Shen Ruiling took out another dark green jade bottle from the storage bag, and immediately pinched out a mysterious magic formula to slowly pull the contents of the jade bottle out.
I saw, under the control of his spiritual power? A light group emitting a faint light slowly floated out of the jade bottle, and then slowly floated to the canine puppet beast.
At this moment? Shen Ruiling pinched out a few mysterious magic formulas on his chest again with both hands? He said something in his mouth? The faint light group drilled directly into the interior of the puppet beast.
For a while, the dull puppet beast that was like a dead thing suddenly burst into a soft light, as if it had been endowed with some kind of spirituality.
After studying the refining process of puppets, Shen Ruiling found that in order to refine puppets, not only some materials usually used for refining magic tools are needed, but also the souls of monsters and spiritual materials need to be fused together, so as to give puppets a certain spirituality.
This step is called "melting soul and soul."
And only after going through this last step, a puppet can be considered to be refined, otherwise the refined puppet is just a dead thing, and it is not much different from an ordinary doll statue.
When Shen Ruiling saw that the puppet beast in front of him was successfully given spirituality, a touch of excitement appeared on his stern face.
Soul fusion can be said to be the most critical step in the process of refining puppet beasts, and it is also an extremely difficult step to master, but he did not expect to succeed the first time.
But if you think about it carefully, this can be considered normal. After all, the main test of this step is the cultivator's ability to control the power of the soul, and this is not difficult for Shen Ruiling.
His divine soul power is already at the level of the pinnacle of foundation building, and because he has practiced "Dayan Shenmeng Pu", his control over the power of divine consciousness is far beyond that of ordinary people.
And the object of his soul fusion this time is just the soul of a second-order monster that he let [Soul Eating Tarantula] capture from the back mountain.
As for how he pulled out the souls of the dead monsters that had not yet dissipated, it would involve several magical powers in the puppet mystery.
What is used here is a mysterious technique called "Soul Pulling", which allows the caster to pull out the souls that have not yet dispersed from the corpse that has just died.
Although this Divine Soul Secret Art looks very strange, in fact, the value of the real practical fighting method is pitifully low, and it can even be said that there is no such thing.
Because this secret technique can only draw souls out of dead corpses, and for those living creatures, it cannot exert any power at all, it is just a magical power secret technique specially invented for refining puppets.
Compared to those secret techniques that specifically attack the opponent's soul, the power of this secret technique is simply terrible.
In addition to the most basic "Soul Removal Technique", this puppet secret technique also includes several other divine soul secret techniques, such as the "Soul Condensing Technique" that can artificially condense several weak souls into a powerful soul. ", and the "Soul Refinement Technique" that fuses the obtained soul and spiritual materials together.
These three kinds of soul secret techniques are all used to cultivate puppets, while the other secret techniques are used to control puppets.
After the canine puppet beast was successfully instilled, Shen Ruiling couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and was ready to continue the next control steps.
In fact, Shen Ruiling had also come into contact with the puppet control method before, that is, the puppet and the matching control method that the Lu family refined back then.
But now that he has come into contact with the complete puppet secret technique, he can clearly understand that the puppets that the Lu family refined and the puppet manipulation method they invented were completely low-end tricks.
The Lu family's control method is to treat the puppet as a tool of war with no spirituality. It requires the cultivator to control it with his spiritual sense, otherwise he will not be able to launch an attack at all.
This will distract the monk who controls the puppet during the battle, leaving an opportunity for the opponent.
And this control method on the puppet secret technique obtained from the inheritance island is completely advanced. The monk only needs to attach a ray of distraction to the puppet, and then pass an idea, and the latter will follow the command. How it behaves is entirely up to the puppet's instinctive actions.
Most of this instinctive action is determined by the soul of the beast that has been melted into it when the spirit is tapped.
Generally speaking, puppet beasts will inherit some instinctive actions in the fusion of the monster's soul to a certain extent, and even inherit some natal supernatural powers or natal talents from the monster's life.
Of course, if you want to reach the latter level, you need at least a third-order puppet.
On this side, Shen Ruiling slowly closed his eyes again, the whole person was immersed in his own sea of consciousness, and he was trying to split a small wisp of consciousness.
I saw that in his sea of consciousness, his own divine soul was quietly floating there, as if a soft spiritual light enveloped the entire divine soul.
Under the wrapping of this spiritual light, his divine soul gradually split into a small part, and began to slowly drift out towards the sea of consciousness.
Under the control of Shen Ruiling, this small strand of consciousness was carefully attached to the canine puppet beast, so that the former could immediately sense the real existence of the puppet.
At this moment, although Shen Ruiling's eyes were always closed, he was still able to clearly see the familiar scene in the cave through the eyes of the dog-shaped puppet.
The picture presented in front of him is real, not the kind of feeling that is perceived by divine sense.
In other words, Shen Ruiling could clearly perceive what the puppet could see and hear.
This kind of magical perception ability transmitted by the puppet made Shen Ruiling's eyes light up. After all, he had never experienced such a phenomenon when he grew up.
And what Shen Ruiling performed just now was the compulsory secret technique for controlling puppets, "Mystic Technique".
As the name suggests, this secret technique is able to split a small wisp of spiritual consciousness from the cultivator's own complete spiritual soul, and attach it to the puppet, so as to achieve the purpose of controlling the puppet.
Generally speaking, if a small part of the divine soul is split from the complete divine soul, it is difficult for the former to recover on its own, so the number of divine consciousness that can be split out by a cultivator is basically fixed, and it will not split too much. After all, too many splits will affect the strength of one's own soul.
But this is not a big problem for Shen Ruiling. At this time, in his sea of consciousness, the small wisp of divine consciousness that has been split has begun to slowly recover.
All of this is due to the "Dayan Shen Meng Pu" that he cultivated, which has been able to continuously forge his divine soul and become stronger.
Furthermore, the piece of [Soul Accumulation Crystal] in the sea of consciousness in his consciousness strengthens his divine soul all the time, and it can easily help him recover the split divine soul, so that his divine soul will never become weaker.
Even in the process of continuous division and recovery, Shen Ruiling's spirit will become stronger and stronger.
Of course, this puppet secret technique also includes a secret technique of forging souls. Obviously, it is a kind of soul secret technique that monks who practice puppet technique must practice.
What surprised Shen Ruiling the most was that UU reading www. uukanshu.com He felt that the soul training technique in this puppet secret technique was somewhat similar to the "Dream Book of Big Eyes" that he practiced, but the former was more obvious and simpler.
Could it be that the "Dayan Shen Meng Pu" that he cultivated was revealed on the inheritance island, or was it the reward that a certain Lingnan senior got from the first few stages of the inheritance test?
Thinking of this, Shen Ruiling felt more and more that his guess was correct. The inheritance island might have the training formula for the last five layers of "Dream of the Gods".
This is undoubtedly great news for him. At least he knows the clues of the follow-up mentality of "Dayan Shenmeng Pu". As long as Zhao Jie returns one day, he can look for it.
After half a cup of tea, Shen Ruiling slowly opened his eyes. He cast his gaze on the glittering puppet beast in front of him again, and began to try to control it in his heart.
Walking, running, jumping... these simple actions that monsters can do, this dog-shaped puppet can also complete, and even it can instinctively use its body and mouth to attack.
When controlling this puppet, Shen Ruiling could feel that the strength of this puppet was only about the second-rank low-grade, and it would only complete some simple actions, acting as a laboring labor for the family.
It took more than a month to study the puppet secret technique, and now the first puppet beast in life has finally been refined, although it is only a second-order low-grade puppet that is too weak.
But this is enough for Shen Ruiling, at least he is a beginner in puppet art, and it also proves that he has some talent in puppet art.
And just as Shen Ruiling was about to leave the customs, an aura galloping from the direction of Pingzhou had already crossed the vast waters of Zhenze Lake.
