Chapter 257 The Third-Level Perfect Thunder Ape Corpse Is Obtained

He bit the jade slip in his mouth and worked non-stop with his hands.

This is Shen Lian's current state.

Even if there is a time limit, he dare not work too fast.

There is a deadline for branding the runes on the puppet parts.

One hundred puppet parts must be made within one year.

This is why so many cultivators cannot complete it.

It is too difficult to replenish the consumption of divine consciousness. It is okay at the beginning, but it will become weaker and weaker later.

Moreover, the soul is consumed many times and cannot be fully recovered. It is easy to fall into dizziness during the performance.

How to describe it, it is like... like suddenly... shaking, and falling into the kind of ethereal instant state.

When he came to the valley on the black spirit ship, Shen Lian felt the existence of a divine consciousness that was not weaker than his, sweeping all the cultivators in the valley.

The only one who can match him in the strength and quality of divine consciousness is the fourth-level great demon king.

Moreover, he only faintly sensed the falling divine consciousness, and was not sure how strong it was.

It is not weaker than him, but Shen Lian applied some gold powder on himself, so the divine consciousness is probably much stronger.

It's just that the divine consciousness is a large-scale investigation, not fixed on a certain cultivator.

Although he has not sensed the divine consciousness spying since he came here, not sensing it does not mean that it does not exist.

Shen Lian is very jealous of the third-level great perfection Tianyuan Thunder Ape corpse.

The Great Demon King Canglan knows how to drive people. All 100 puppet parts are branded with the runes of the five elements cycle within a year. This is almost an impossible task for a Jindan cultivator.

Of course, "almost" is not absolute.

For Shen Lian, it is difficult but not hopeless.

Moreover, for this job of branding puppet runes, he does not need to let his puppeteer advance to the third-level upper grade. He can do it with his current inherited and integrated puppet skills.

The main difficulty of doing this job is the problem of divine consciousness. The stronger the divine consciousness, the faster it works.

With the inherited puppetry technique and the skills of a large number of puppeteers integrated in his mind, he easily found the most energy-saving branding method.

Shen Lian punched the five-element circulation runes into the puppet parts, and stabilized them one by one according to the instructions of the jade slip.

After thinking about it, Shen Lian felt that he could speed up a little and win this task.

First of all, Canglan Mountain has been famous for a long time. Although there are not many cultivators who have obtained the spiritual objects of the third-order great perfection level, every few decades, there will always be a cultivator who takes things away.

These people come from different forces from all directions.

It is precisely because of the fairness of Canglan Mountain that it can continuously attract cultivators from all directions to come to work.

Besides, he, Shen, is not a jinx. If he comes well, there will be problems.

There are many cultivators with stronger spiritual thoughts, and they can brand puppet runes quickly, which shows that they have superb craftsmanship.

Therefore, after continuously completing the puppet parts, Shen Lian's subsequent branding actions gradually accelerated a lot.

…

At the same time.

In the sky above the valley, a dragon with an indigo aura emanating from its body was lying, its body twisted, its claws under its belly clawed into the void, and its huge head overlooked the bottom.

Above the dragon head, a three-foot-sized demon baby with the same appearance stood upright, also looking down.

In the eyes of the demon dragon king, this huge valley was actually an irregular super battleship, or a huge flying city.

In different places in the valley, there were cultivators busy.

Some Jindan cultivators without skills were assigned to a small cave, sitting cross-legged in a hazy formation, and the endless spiritual power was extracted from the depths of the earth by the formation and refined into the bodies of the cultivators.

At this moment, the cultivators became a conversion medium, transforming the spiritual power in their bodies and injecting it into the runes in front of them bit by bit.

The weapon refiner was in a fiery red cave deep in the depths, making different parts according to the rules.

The spiritual plant master was cultivating spiritual plants in a verdant cave.

The magician was using strange means to continuously inject his energy into the black soul-sealing towers.

…

Inside the valley, a huge lightning column went straight into the depths of the earth.

The entire lightning column was planted on a huge mechanical turntable, which was made up of countless gears, and the total number of gears exceeded a thousand miles.

Under countless gears, a group of sturdy half-demon monks climbed on the long handles extending out of the gears with their hands, pushing them in circles like a donkey pulling a mill.

As the huge gears turned, a clicking sound was made.

"Snap!"

In the space, an ape-like demon waved a whip and roared, "Thunder is coming!"

The half-demons who heard the shouting lowered their heads while pushing the long handles outside the gears, so that they could stick close to the bottom of the gears.

Rumble!

Then, countless flashes of lightning were heard from the lightning pillar buried deep in the earth. The purple and silver light was as thick as a dragon, traversing from the depths of the earth and striking the earth in all directions.

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

The violent thunder swept out from the depths of the earth. When it reached the ground, it was blocked by layers of restrictions and there was no more movement.

But the restrictions in the valley still flashed dazzling spiritual light, and some places crackled and cracked, revealing the vast mountain scene outside.

More destruction came from the depths of the valley.

The seemingly ordinary earth and stone land exploded under the impact of lightning, and the colorful streamers were like fireworks, splashing up in a flash, and the broken magic weapon parts flew out.

There were too many places of such destruction. Looking around, there were hundreds of them, like electric sparks, dazzling.

"Puff."

In mid-air, the demon baby stepping on the dragon head opened his mouth and puffed, as if to spit out the turbid air he had just inhaled.

"This deity, hehe, it's cracked again."

"Continue."

The little demon baby licked the corner of his mouth, and then his mind changed, and he made a majestic voice. At this moment, even his momentum became majestic and vast like a god.

But in the blink of an eye, the majestic aura dissipated, and turned into a playful look, saying perfunctorily: "I know, I know."

"Remember, the 19,763rd attempt to carry the thunder impact failed."

"Continue to prepare for the 19,764th time."

The next moment, the vast dragon power emerged again, and the demon baby revealed a domineering aura.

"Work hard, and when I ascend, you can also become an immortal."

"Hehe." The dragon power was lost, and the demon baby became careless again.

"Thank you for the reward, I will definitely work hard and strive to make me ascend."

The demon baby's mouth moved, and some fox demon monks in various places in the valley were immediately shocked and immediately got busy, starting to take out the parts that had been built one by one, and went to the place where it had collapsed before.

The fox demon moved quickly, and the repair process was very skilled. It didn't take long for the cracked place in the valley to be repaired and restored to its original appearance.

However, when repairing, some places in the valley inadvertently flashed a black metallic luster.

…

"Why is it a little numb?"

Shen Lian paused in his busy work. He just felt a weak electric arc coming, but the arc came and went quickly. When he wanted to track it down, the arc had disappeared.

In this area, there was nothing to sense except weeds and puppet parts.

"The ninety-fourth piece."

Putting down the needle-sized parts in front of him, Shen Lian let out a long breath.

The demon king also has shameless moments.

The puppet parts we worked on at the beginning were as big as a mountain, and it was very convenient to brand the puppet runes, but the later the parts were, the smaller they were, and the more mentally drained.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoist, take a break first."

A soft voice sounded in my ears, and the little fox demon appeared again.

This time, the little fox demon wore a black and white landscape pattern skirt, and came with a tray in her hand. There were wine and food on the tray, and steam was coming out of the stew pot.

"I just made a three-feathered stewed chicken. It smells so good. I stole it from the old monkey mountain next door."

The sudden appearance of the little fox demon scared Shen Lian.

What's going on?

This is the first time he has encountered such a situation. What did you fellow Taoists do when you encountered such a situation in the past?

Seeking advice, I can't wait.

At this moment, Shen Lian's first reaction was that obstacles were coming.

Seeing that he was about to complete the imprint of 100 puppet parts, he came to make trouble.

This little trick, he saw through it at a glance.

Seeing Shen Lian sitting cross-legged to regulate his breath, the little fox demon frowned and muttered, "You don't know how to be a good fox."

"It's a waste of my life to steal the three-feathered chicken raised by the monkey for you to eat."

The little fox demon put down the tray, deliberately got another handful of firewood, warmed up the stew pot and spirit wine, and then lay down on the side and squinted.

After Shen Lian finished regulating his breath, he saw the little fox demon like this and felt a little bit helpless.

The black and white landscape pattern skirt is undulating, the mountains are mountains, the water is water, and the beautiful scenery is on the dangerous peaks and cliffs. (Seeking pictures)

After appreciating the landscape for a while, Shen Lian picked up the 95th puppet part, which is a pin-shaped part that connects the puppet parts, and the five elements of spiritual patterns need to be branded on it.

After the little fox demon woke up, it tilted its head and watched Shen Lian busy.

Every time Shen Lian completed one, it was very happy.

"Come on, fellow Taoist, there is only one left."

"Hehe, it has been a long time since anyone has completed a hundred."

Shen Lian's mind was immersed in making puppet parts, but he always separated a wisp of divine consciousness to sense the little fox demon. He really couldn't figure out what the fox demon was singing.

At first, he thought it was to slow him down, but now it seems completely different.

"Fellow Daoist, this is the last one."

"Hahaha... My fox son made a fortune this time!"

Seeing Shen Lian pick up the last puppet part, the little fox demon turned into its true form, jumping up and down on the spot, and wanted to make a humming sound, but then realized that it might affect Shen Lian, and quickly stopped his voice.

In this way, Shen Lian finally completed the imprint of the last puppet part within the one-year deadline.

"Your divine consciousness is so strong, it should be close to the limit of a Jindan Daquan cultivator."

"The last cultivator with such a strong divine consciousness was an alchemist. The Dragon Marrow Fengyang Pill in the reward was made by that person. He took three spiritual objects from the mountain."

"I didn't expect that I would meet such a powerful person as you. No, no, no, you are more powerful than that alchemist."

"You are too kind, my divine consciousness is good, but it is about the same as that of an ordinary Jindan Daquan cultivator. The main thing is that I have a deep understanding of puppet runes. Have you found a shortcut to brand runes?"

"Ah!"

The little fox demon walked up to Shen Lian on four legs, looked up at Shen Lian, and his eyes were full of surprise.

"That fellow Taoist's understanding is so high, it is much more powerful than the tyranny of divine thoughts."

As he said that, the little fox demon jumped up and down again, "Fellow Daoist, follow me to see the elder. I, Canglan Mountain, like friends like you."

"My adopted son, Hu, will also be rewarded for the arrival of my fellow Taoist."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

As he said that, the little fox demon transformed into a human form again, but the landscape clothes on his body were gone and turned into a pure white color again.

It does not have the shameful look of a human female nun, or in other words, in its cognition, it does not have the concept of politeness that a human race should have.

In the Monster Clan's cognition, these do not exist at all. Even if they transform into humans, their cognition is still based on the Monster Clan's.

Of course, this little fox demon is indeed very honest.

Shen Lian was talking about temperament.

He directly stated the reward he wanted to receive.

If it were him, or other human beings, they would definitely not tell the truth at this time, and the more sinister ones might even play tricks.

The little fox demon imitated the etiquette of the human race and bowed its hands towards Shen Lian.

"Come on, let's go, I'll take you to see the elder."

At this time, Shen Lian had a thought in his mind and asked, "I wonder how fellow Daoist Puppet Machine is doing?"

"He."

The little fox demon scratched a bunch of stupid hair on his head, "He was unlucky. He vomited blood and was seriously injured. Not every monk can survive like fellow Taoist."

The little fox demon was right about this. During the process of branding the puppet parts, the spiritual energy was consumed too much. The normal golden elixir would not be a big deal to recover, but the real puppet machine came here to give it a try this time.

Unexpectedly, it still failed.

"The time for the other two fellow Taoists has not come yet."

Through the fox demon's narration, Shen Lian understood that different tasks have different time limits.

This is true. It takes a long time to cultivate some spiritual plants, and it also takes a long time to refine high-level elixirs, but he can do it quickly.

The little fox demon turned into a human form for one moment, and then turned into a snow-white fox for another, and just jumped around in the wasteland, leading Shen Lian forward.

At this time, Shen Lian also discovered that a hazy figure appeared behind him where he had finished his work, dragging away his completed puppet parts.

Walking all the way to the hazy mist-like end of the wasteland, a door opened.

After Shen Lian stepped through the door.

In an instant, extremely strong demonic aura washed over him, and each demonic aura was like a sharp arrow, swirling around with electric arcs and filling the space.

In the middle of the demonic energy and electric arc, a demonic ape with a body as big as a hill sat cross-legged.

The demon ape had a hideous and terrifying face. The huge thunder mark on his forehead directly tore a bloody mark on the top of his head. His whole body was trapped by ropes made of black restrictions.

"Fellow Taoist, this is your reward for completing your mission."

A gentle voice sounded, and an old fox demon with an extremely old face and a cane came out, and the little fox demon was held in his arms.

The fox old woman, the thunder ape monster corpse, put it into a storage ring and pushed it towards Shen Lian, and also told her the method to lift the ban on the monster corpse.

Then it said with a smile: "My fellow Taoist is very skilled in craftsmanship. Are you interested in taking on another mission? You can choose Dragon Marrow Fengyang Pill, Jiyin Ghost Stone, and quasi-fourth-level magic weapons."
