Chapter 149 Barrier

It took Wei Zhong half a month to transform the silver-white puppet. The high-level spiritual materials in it were streamlined, which slightly improved the performance of the puppet.

Looking at the puppet in front of him with satisfaction, Wei Zhong used the "Splitting Spirit Method" to split a spirit into it again.

"At most one year apart, the spirit must be synchronized back to avoid various accidents such as betrayal by the spirit."

Looking at the puppet gradually moving under the control of the spirit, Wei Zhong couldn't help but think that the current strength of this puppet clone is one level higher than his own.

Wei Zhong has just entered the middle stage of Jindan. Without using the [Time Dao Fa], he can only reach the edge of the late stage of Jindan.

Fighting this puppet head-on, he is really not sure to win.

In terms of physique, the puppet's body strength is undoubtedly higher than Wei Zhong's body tempered by the "Forging Gang Method".

As for spiritual power, Wei Zhong's spiritual power reserves are much higher than the puppet, but he is inferior in terms of spiritual power burst.

In layman's terms, the puppet's output frequency is faster. As long as it follows the magic talismans engraved in its body, it can quickly consume spiritual power to cast magic.

However, Wei Zhong has to take into account the safety of his body and cannot use his spiritual power at a high speed, otherwise it will damage the meridians in his body.

'But I have many more means than the puppet. '

Since Wei Zhong's cultivation, he has accumulated countless means, including various magics and magic tools.

There are only four runes of peerless magic on the puppet, and the spells that can be cast are only these four.

As for other magic, the puppet's body is not as clever as the human body. If you want to cast a spell, you can't use the help of the cultivator's body. Only Wei Zhong can use his full power to control the spiritual power.

However, with Wei Zhong's current spiritual consciousness, he can't do this. The magic he casts is incomplete. If he wants to complete the casting process, it will probably be possible only after he reaches the Nascent Soul stage.

Therefore, the silver-white puppet is just a humanoid weapon with some magic runes engraved on it and capable of controlling magic tools. There is still a big gap between it and the real incarnation.

‘Without the exquisite structure of the human body, it is naturally impossible to practice the skills, nor is it able to perform the [Time Dao Fa]. Otherwise, relying on the puppet technique, I have the hope of dominating Yunzhou.

But this is also a good thing, so that I don’t have enough strength to suppress the puppet body.

It is not bad to just use it as a magic tool. ’

Wei Zhong touched his chin, already thinking about where to send this puppet to explore for the main body next time.

After thinking for a while, Wei Zhong turned the silver-white puppet into a silver ring and put it on his finger, looking back at the other five elements puppets.

These five puppets are used to construct the formation. When controlling them, you only need to use the formation token, and you can control them indirectly like controlling the formation. In theory, there is no need to inject the spirit to use them.

However, in order to practice the "Splitting God Method", Wei Zhong is still ready to invest five spirits into it.

‘Anyway, it is used to protect the Spirit Island, and will not be used for attack and killing easily. The safety is guaranteed, and there is no worry about the damage of the soul. ’

Thinking of this, Wei Zhong sat down cross-legged, and was already practicing the "Splitting God Method". Like the silver-white puppet, he separated five Jindan-level consciousnesses and injected them one by one.

Suddenly, multiple perspectives appeared in Wei Zhong's mind at the same time. Wei Zhong blocked them all and immediately made the five souls fall into a deep sleep.

Feeling a little sluggish consciousness, Wei Zhong took out several soul-nourishing pills and swallowed them to refine.

Being able to separate six souls with independent consciousness in a short period of time, this is all thanks to Wei Zhong's powerful consciousness, which is far beyond the same level. Ordinary Jindan mid-stage cultivators really can't do this.

This time, he refined four high-quality soul-nourishing pills before Wei Zhong recovered from the sluggish state of consciousness.

"In the future, you have to be slow when performing the "Splitting God Technique". You must not be as reckless as you were today."

Standing up and casting the spell, the five puppets stood up together and moved closer to Wei Zhong.

Wei Zhong took out five magic weapons and stuffed them into the hands of the five-element puppets one by one.

The latter took the magic weapons into their bodies, and then flashed five-colored lights, gathering towards Wei Zhong's palm.

When the spiritual light went out, the puppets were gone, leaving only five rings of different colors in Wei Zhong's palm.

There were dense runes on them, which were mysterious and extraordinary.

Leaving the cave with the five-colored rings, Wei Zhong called Ling Ziwei, who had already prepared to build the five-element soldier killing array.

Giving the five rings to her, the latter immediately took off into the air and headed towards the various formation nodes on the Spirit Island.

Wei Zhong watched from afar, and saw the other party pinching his fingers to cast various arrays in various places on the Spirit Island, and occasionally integrated the ring into them...

Adding the Five Elements Killing Array on the original protective array caused a lot of movement, and a series of five-colored spiritual lights frequently appeared in the sky above the Spirit Island.

The cultivators in the Spirit Field saw this scene and thought that there was an external enemy attacking Qingbo Island.

When Zou Ruiyuan saw Ling Ziwei flying around, he immediately knew that she was adjusting the array, so he stood up and comforted the people in the Spirit Field.

Seeing this, Wei Zhong sent a message to the whole island:

"Today, we are renovating the protective formation of Ling Island. Don't panic..."

After hearing Wei Zhong's voice, many people calmed down. Feeling the great power coming from the formation above their heads, they couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Our Qingbo Island is really becoming more and more stable."

"Yes, this is all because of the island owner's ability. He actually married Fairy Ling from the Ling family. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to enjoy this kind of stability..."

Wei Zhong didn't care about the servants' idle chatter. He quietly watched Ling Ziwei complete the upgrade of the formation.

Then he sensed the location of his five spiritual divisions, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

Ling Ziwei finished transforming the formation and moved closer to Wei Zhong.

He took out a formation token:

"This is the control token after the formation is upgraded, husband..."

"I think it should not be used."

Wei Zhong slightly stretched out his hand, and the calm formation around him immediately fluctuated, and a sense of killing rose from the Spirit Island.

Five human-shaped phantoms as tall as a hundred feet appeared above everyone's heads, each holding a sword, a knife, a whip, a hammer, and a stick.

The aura on their bodies was long, and each of them had reached the level of the late stage of Jindan. This was the puppet's strength after the formation and the blessing of the magic weapon.

The people on Qingbo Island felt the pressure of the human-shaped phantom above their heads at close range, and they exclaimed in amazement. Only Zou Ruiyuan frowned. As the only foundation-building cultivator present, he obviously realized that the human-shaped phantom was far more powerful than the foundation-building cultivator.

Ling Ziwei also had a strange look in her eyes:

"This puppet formation is so powerful, no wonder the Zhigang Palace lost several Jindan elders in that secret realm."

Wei Zhong nodded. The puppets of the middle stage of the third order were matched with the magic weapons of the middle stage of the third order. Under the blessing of the Five Elements Killing Formation, they all had the power of the late stage of the third order.

This is the power of the puppet formation.

Not to mention the secret realm, even if the former Zhigang Palace came to the Qingbo Island at this moment, it would not be able to avoid a complete annihilation.

If the silver-white puppets don't come out, these five five-element puppets will be enough for the other party to drink a pot.

Of course, if Song Linfang, who may have condensed the infant now, is still unstoppable.

'Perhaps in the future, dozens of second-order and one third-order late silver-white puppets can be filled in this formation, so that under the blessing of the formation, a main formation puppet with pseudo-fourth-order strength can be launched.

It can fight with the Yuanying. ’

Wei Zhong tested his ability to control the formation and found that he could not only activate the Five Elements Killing Formation for attack, but also activate the matching defense formation, which was the effect of the formation linkage.

As the person who set up the formation, Ling Ziwei could also use the token in her hand to activate both, but her control over the Five Elements Killing Formation was not as flexible as that of Wei Zhong who had injected the spirit.

However, there was not much problem in dealing with ordinary late Jindan cultivators.

Wei Zhong finally felt relieved.

In the past, I was occasionally worried that my nest would be dug out by some enemy when I went out.

Now I finally don’t have this worry. If the Yuanying cultivators don’t go out, Qingbo Island will be the most solid barrier.

After calming down the formation, Wei Zhong and Ling Ziwei returned to Yunqingyuan hand in hand and began to discuss the upgrade of the formation in the future.

“I didn’t expect that my Qingbo Island has become so powerful,” Ling Ziwei heard what Wei Zhong said, with a complicated look in her eyes.

Wei Zhong had only been in the Jindan stage for a few decades, but he was already thinking about the Nascent Soul's combat power, which made Ling Ziwei feel a little unreal.

The current Five Elements Killing Array was already a great means in her eyes. With the cultivation of the early Jindan stage, controlling the killing array of the late Jindan stage, what a dreamlike scene it was for a formation master.

"Haha, as your husband's strength increases in the future, our place of practice will become more and more stable. What does this small Five Elements Killing Array count for?"

Wei Zhong knew that this was far from the end, but just a beginning.

As they chatted, Wei Zhong led the topic to cultivation.

"Has Ziwei made any progress to the middle Jindan stage recently?"

The latter nodded:

"Soon, I can already feel the obvious barrier between the early and middle stages. It will take a few more years to break through."

Wei Zhong was not surprised to hear this. Ling Ziwei had broken through to the Jindan stage for seventy years. With her qualifications of a top-grade spiritual root and sufficient third-level resources, it was time for her to break through.

In total, the time the other party stayed in the early stage of Jindan exceeded Wei Zhong by thirty years.

Although Wei Zhong was decades later than the other party in Jindan, he broke through to the middle stage before the other party.

This was certainly due to the blessing of resources, but more importantly, the blessing of Wei Zhong's panel on the practice method made Wei Zhong's practice more efficient.

"Husband is almost there, right?"

Ling Ziwei didn't know that Wei Zhong had broken through, so she asked:

"I'm not as good as you, Ziwei, I probably need to spend another 10 to 20 years."

The early stage of Jindan took sixty to seventy years, and the progress of Wei Zhong and Ling Ziwei was very fast among the same level.

Due to resource constraints, many Jindan cultivators often need to stay in this realm for ninety or even a hundred years. The early stage of Jindan took so much time, not to mention the middle and even late stages.

The time required is increasing step by step, which is why many people practice until the end of their lives, but only reach the middle and late stages of Jindan.

‘It will probably take me another hundred years to reach the state of perfect Dan formation and start to consider the matter of condensing the infant. As for Ling Ziwei, it will take about two hundred years.

But this is not a big problem for her. When she formed Dan, she only lived for more than two hundred years. Now she still has a lot of life left, which is enough for Dan formation practice. ’

“How is Ling’er’s practice recently?” Wei Zhong asked.

“After improving her qualifications, sister Ling’er put aside the chores of Lingdao and concentrated on practice. Now she has made great progress in the middle stage of foundation building. It will take about twenty years to break through to the late stage of foundation building.”

Wei Zhong nodded after hearing this.

‘This progress has already met my expectations. It seems that the effect of improving qualifications is quite good. ’

It took about 60 years to move from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage. It seems to be much slower than Wei Zhong, but in fact it is faster than many foundation building cultivators.

Wei Zhong took out a spiritual pill and handed it to Ling Ziwei:

"This is a second-level upper-grade realm-breaking pill. If it is stuck at the bottleneck of the late stage, let it be used boldly and enter the late stage of foundation building as soon as possible."

The higher the cultivation level, the higher the grade of its natal cloud will be, so it will be more convenient to cultivate it, and then the effect of using the "Spirit Planting Method" on the improvement of spiritual roots will be more obvious.

Wei Zhong's expectation is that Xie Linghua will not only enter the peak of foundation building before the foundation building deadline, but also improve her own spiritual roots to the upper grade to make full preparations for pill formation.

As for the side effects of the realm-breaking pill, they can be easily eliminated by refining one dust-reducing pill after another.

Ling Ziwei took the pill.

The two returned to their retreat rooms.

······

In a place in Luohe Prefecture, a white-bearded old man and a woman in palace dress were walking slowly by the Luohe River.

Wang Lihua looked at the woman in front of him with a complicated expression. She was Song Linfang who had just returned from condensing her infant.

She had just succeeded in condensing her infant, but she did not return to Gang Palace immediately. Instead, she walked along the Luohe River with Wang Lihua. It was obvious that she had her own plan in mind.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, I wonder if the false news that I failed to condense my infant has been spread?"

"Senior," Wang Lihua swallowed his saliva and continued with some nervousness, "According to the request of the senior, I have already put this news into the streets of Luohe Prefecture. It won't take long for everyone in Luohe Prefecture to know about it."

Song Linfang's success in condensing her infant has brought about a major change in her status. Now, as a third-level formation master of the Wang family, Wang Lihua has to respectfully call her a senior in front of her.

'I didn't expect that the other party really succeeded in condensing her infant! This is a Yuanying, which is a top figure even in my Wang family. ’

Wang Lihua thought of himself again, and a bitter taste suddenly rose in his heart:

‘I am only in the middle stage of Danjie now, and it is a long way to complete Danjie. The remaining life span is not enough to support my cultivation. It is hopeless to condense the infant in this life! ’

Wang Lihua sighed in his heart, and suddenly saw Song Linfang walking in a direction, and suddenly reminded:

“Senior, this direction is not the location of Zhigang Palace.”

Song Linfang smiled slightly:

“I naturally know, just wait for the bugs in the palace to make a fuss, I will go to see a good friend first to kill time.”
