Chapter 714 I’m so stupid, really
It is very difficult to improve a puppet. Taoist Tiemu has lived for so many years but has not been able to refine a puppet good enough to obtain the inheritance. This is proof.

But sometimes, the improvement of puppets is very simple, at least simpler than the practice of practitioners.

In the hands of a celestial puppet master, as long as there are enough materials and treasures, it is not difficult to enhance the strength of an earthly puppet.

Even if it is a puppet in the Earth Realm, it is still a dead object after all. The improvement of a dead object and the transformation of a living being are not the same concept.

As long as you have the skills, materials and a little luck, the puppet can be upgraded.

The owner of this place is undoubtedly the Heavenly Puppet Master. The last arrangement he left before his death created a puppet at the level of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. It can be said that he has control over it, it is reasonable and there is no problem at all.

But the problem is...

This is the opportunity left by the Heavenly Puppet Master for the successor. Zhou Qing is not that successor, he is just here to make up the numbers.

After the inheritor obtained part of the inheritance, he practiced hard, delved into the art of puppetry, and then started the subsequent inheritance. "I", as the master, left behind the puppet refining pool to help my disciples' puppets go to the next level.

It is such a wonderful thing to have this one-stop service arranged.

But now, something good has gone wrong.

A large amount of puppet heart sources were obtained by Zhou Qing.

The puppet lying in the puppet refining pool now is also Zhou Qing's.

This thing is causing trouble...

"Pavilion Master, the puppet refining pool..."

Zhou Qing hesitated, not knowing what to say.

Taoist Tiemu looked at the puppet refining pool where the fire was flickering, and his expression changed from bright to dark.

Zhou Qing waited quietly. Now he could understand even if Taoist Tiemu attacked him in anger.

Of course, understanding ≠ I accept.

"Ugh……"

Finally, Taoist Tiemu let out a long sigh.

"Perhaps this is the price I pay for taking shortcuts. I didn't rely on my own abilities to obtain the inheritance, so this is what happened. Karma is cyclical, and retribution is inevitable."

"The fortune of the Puppet Refining Pool... belongs to you. The Puppet Heart Source is the reward for your help, and so is the Puppet Refining Pool!"

The Pavilion Master is magnanimous, and may he live a hundred years!
"Thank you, Pavilion Master."

Zhou Qing thanked him solemnly, "If there is anything that Zhou Qing can help with in the future, please just ask, I will never refuse."

"Stop talking, it's annoying."

Taoist Tiemu waved his hands and said, "Damn it, I am such an idiot. I really want to slap myself a few times."

"..."

It’s not like that. Man proposes, God disposes. Pavilion Master, it’s not your fault.

But after spending time with Taoist Tiemu along the way, Zhou Qing really felt that he was an interesting person who acted very frankly and was worthy of close friendship.

Zhou Qing also remembered the relationship between Puppet Heart Source and Puppet Refining Pool, which was a great benefit.

As for Taoist Tiemu's bluntness, once you get used to it, it's not a shortcoming; at least he has no bad intentions.

It's better to speak the truth than to ask for the slander of a villain, right?
If you were asked to choose, which type of person would you choose to be friends with?

The answer is obvious.

Zhou Qing stood beside the puppet refining pool, watching it temper the Six Spirit Earth Puppets.

The flames in the pool were extremely intense, with dense array patterns covering them, containing terrifying power. From time to time, some melted gold and iron liquid would flow out from the four sides of the pool and be drawn into the interior of the Six Spirit Puppet, causing the puppet's body to undergo a transformation.

A series of array patterns were engraved on the Six Spirit Puppet, causing its strength to leap forward.

Even more, the pool of fire transformed into a series of illusory small hammers, hitting various parts of the Six Spirit Puppets.

The Heavenly Puppet Master has died, and the formation he set up here is the one in charge of tempering the puppets now.

Once a puppet enters the puppet refining pool, the formation will be activated and then follow the program preset by the Heavenly Puppet Master before his death.

All kinds of treasures that have been processed in advance and pre-engraved puppet formation patterns will take effect one by one in this process and play their due roles.

The most obvious one is the bottom of the Six Spirit Puppet.

There was an endless supply of black power rising up and entering the bodies of the Six Spirit Puppets, causing them to undergo a fundamental transformation.

This is earth power, the foundation of earth warriors' practice.

Whether it is elixir, weapon, or puppet, as long as it involves the level of earth and heaven, it is necessary to utilize the power of "earth" and "heaven".

The same was true during the previous three days when Taoist Tiemu upgraded the Six Spirit Puppets.

The practitioner has already reached the realm of earth and heaven, so it is naturally easy for him to mobilize the power of "earth" and "heaven".

And if you are refining treasures across borders, then if your own skills are high enough, you can also use external objects to pull the "earth" and the "sky".

Of course, those metal minerals and medicinal treasures that have reached the earth grade and sky grade also contain the power of "earth" and "sky".

Zhou Qing watched all this intently, combining it with the knowledge of formations he had learned, and gained some insights.

At this time, Taoist Tiemu suddenly said:
"Once the puppet refining pool is opened, it cannot be closed. If you force the puppet refining process to stop, it will lose its effect. Unless there is a heavenly puppet master who is no less capable than Master, he can close it without damaging the puppet refining pool."

This kind of pre-set formation program has its limitations after all.

"If I could control it, I would definitely stop it and let my natal puppet enjoy this good fortune. Sigh."

Taoist Tiemu sighed again, damn it, making less profit means losing money.

He glanced at Zhou Qing and said directly:

"I know you have been on guard against me in your heart. In fact, I am also on guard against you. To be honest, if you were not a disciple of Xuandu Temple, if you were not so valued in Xuandu Temple, I am afraid I would have had bad thoughts."

"But I really don't dare to touch you, a banished immortal. I finally got the inheritance with great difficulty, and I don't want to be hunted down to death by Xuandu Temple."

"Now that everything is over, there is no need to be on guard against anything. You get the Puppet Refining Pool and the Puppet Heart Source, and I get the rest of Master's things. It's a foregone conclusion."

"..."

Zhou Qing was speechless. You don’t have to be so frank.

"The Pavilion Master and I have just met, so it's normal for us to be wary of each other."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "But a person's character can be seen in the details. I believe we can be friends after this incident."

"Ha." Taoist Tiemu smiled.

"To be friends with a banished immortal like you is actually quite high for me."

"But if you really count it, since you have received these two benefits, you can barely be considered my junior brother. If you need help with anything in the future, just come to me directly."

Taoist Tiemu is a man of temperament, but he is not really a fool. From his last words, we can see that he is very smart.

Now that the outcome is certain, he has no way to transfer the benefits Zhou Qing has gained to himself, so he might as well take advantage of this fate and make friends with Zhou Qing.

If one could make friends with a banished immortal who had cultivated for two years and reached the second level of refinement, then the long-term benefits would definitely not be less than those from a puppet refining pool or something.

Only a fool would part ways with a genius like Zhou Qing and start a fight just for the result of interest distribution that cannot be changed.

That’s why Tiemu Dao gave up his talents again and again.

For Zhou Qing, having a new Earth Puppet Master as a friend, and a Earth Puppet Master who has inherited the complete Heaven Puppet Master heritage, is a great thing with only benefits no matter how you look at it.

Of course he wouldn't refuse.

"Zhou Qing will never forget the kindness we showed you today."

The atmosphere became much more harmonious for a while, and Taoist Tiemu gave another instruction:

"In addition to upgrading your puppet to a higher level, the Puppet Refining Pool can also give it the power of fire."

"That is this kind of pool fire. Although it is not the strange fire of heaven and earth, it is produced by a kind of puppet fire array created by Master. It is very powerful. For the puppet itself, this kind of fire can speed up the recovery of the body. It is very suitable for your immortal marrow."

"When fighting the enemy, this flame will cause extra damage to living beings. It is a battle fire that can enhance the puppet's combat power."

Zhou Qing nodded, feeling happy.

Okay, really good.

Zhou Qing was extremely satisfied with the huge gains he had gained from this trip here.

"Master, how long will this tempering last?"

"I don't think it will be finished today. It will take three to five days. Just wait."

It’s worth it to spend three to five days to exchange for a puppet of Ksitigarbha’s level!

Taoist Tiemu left the puppet refining pool, bowed to the stone statue of the old man, and then put it away.

He said to himself, "I have come this far thanks to the help of my master. He has passed away for who knows how many years. From now on, when I join the lineage, I will kowtow to my master's portrait."

"Let's practice here before the puppet is tempered. Once we go out this time, this place will collapse and cease to exist."

This means that the approach of returning to Yujing first and then waiting a few days to retrieve the puppet is not feasible.

Zhou Qing had no objection to practicing here.

Taoist Tiemu took out an ancient book and began to read it with great concentration.

This ancient book was what he had just taken from the stone table. Zhou Qing estimated that it should be a puppet inheritance, so he was not very interested in it.

Even if he was interested, he wouldn't go over to take a look at this time.

"Cuck!"

At this time, Frog's voice sounded, Zhou Qing's heart moved, and then he went to a corner quietly.

In the Soul Land, Frog jumped out from the gray fog.

Since bringing back the Earth Lotus Platform last time, Wazai has been out for several days. His return today made Zhou Qing feel excited.

There were three things on the lotus leaf on the frog's back. There weren't many, but Zhou Qing believed that they were definitely of high quality. His breakthrough had indeed raised the upper limit of the frog.

There were three treasures, the first of which was actually a real dragon formed by water, as long as an adult's arm.

What is this thing? Some kind of dragon?

As soon as the mental power touched, a voice message sounded, which sounded like a young boy's voice.

"The essence of the water veins of the Heavenly River? The Dao Palace was destroyed, and the Heavenly River dried up. I never thought that a section of the remaining Heavenly River here could actually breed the essence of the water veins. It can be called a miracle."

"The dragon-shaped water vein essence is also ranked among the best among all water vein essences. It is quite a blessing."

"This is a rare treasure suitable for the aquatic species, Fellow Daoist Long. According to the distribution rules we set in advance, it belongs to you."

"Thank you all fellow Taoists."

"You are welcome, Fellow Daoist Long. With this water vein essence, after you return, you will be able to break through and transform in no time."

"The essence of dragon-shaped water veins is most suitable for the dragon clan. Fellow Daoist Long is indeed very lucky."

Amid the congratulations, all other voices disappeared.

"Water Vein Essence, I have never heard of this thing before."

Looking at the water dragon floating in his hand, ripples appeared.

The words carried by the water essence did not explain this treasure clearly, but Zhou Qing at least understood some of it.

This is a treasure that is very suitable for aquatic creatures. Its known function is that it may help aquatic creatures break through the realm and improve their strength.

This function alone means that it has very high value. The things that Frog brings back are of high quality. This also means that the essence of water veins can be effective on masters.

As to whether it has other functions, Zhou Qing currently does not know.

I’ll ask Ao Xuanwei later to see if she knows about the water vein essence.

"Dao Palace..."

Zhou Qing thought of another word mentioned by those voices just now.

The Earth Lotus Platform he obtained last time came from the ruins of the Taoist Palace.

It seems that the essence of this water vein is the same?

The ruins of the Taoist Palace sound like a place of ancient relics, and such a place would naturally attract many people to explore.

The ruins of the Taoist palace must be very extraordinary since they can unearth the lotus platform and the essence of water veins.

The second treasure is two large eyeballs, but they do not look weird or scary. Instead, they give people a different kind of beauty.

Zhou Qing still couldn't recognize it and continued to trigger the voice.

"The Eye of True Vision that can see through restrictions and dispel all kinds of illusions? Brother Wei actually has such a treasure. With this item, our safety after entering the ruins of the Taoist Palace will be greatly improved."

"That's right. I'll have to rely on Brother Wei more in the future."

“Hahaha, you guys are too modest. My pair of True Vision Pupils are at the Earth Realm level and can only see through part of the forbidden ground formation. The Dao Palace ruins are dangerous and unpredictable, so we must not be careless.”

"Such a miraculous effect is already a great help in exploring the ruins of the Taoist Palace."

"I heard that although the Eye of True Vision looks like a human eye, it is a treasure nurtured by nature?"

"That's right. This pair of pupils of true vision was discovered by the Wei family in a treasured place in heaven and earth. There are natural restrictions and illusions everywhere there, but at the deepest part, this treasure that can break illusions and see through restrictions was born."

"Its essence is actually a unique condensation of the secret power of heaven and earth, which just happened to be shaped like an eye pupil. If you stick it directly on your eyes, you can absorb it. After absorbing it, both your soul and body will have the ability of true vision."

"The creation of heaven and earth is truly mysterious."

The voice disappeared, but an uncontrollable smile appeared on Zhou Qing's face.

The Earth-level True Vision Eye that can see through some earth bans and formations, and can break through all kinds of illusions!
Good thing, now I have it too.

This kind of thing is so precious that if it were sold outside, it would be sold at a sky-high price.

Although it cannot bring about a direct improvement in combat power, if the Eye of True Vision is placed in front of anyone, no one will refuse to have such an ability, especially since Zhou Qing himself has a special talent in his eyes.

I'm afraid that this pair of eyes of true vision will bring him a huge benefit.

Without hesitation, Zhou Qing directly put the pair of treasures on his eyes. Although they are souls now, this thing can act on both the body and the soul at the same time, so there is no problem using it now.

The treasure, which was originally solid, melted into liquid and merged with the eyes after it came into contact with the eyes.

Cool and comfortable, without any pain.

Zhou Qing could feel that his eyes were constantly undergoing some changes.

While his eyes were transforming, Zhou Qing looked at the third treasure.

It was a brush made of hair, but the pen holder looked like it was made of bamboo.

Zhou Qing sensed that the power contained in this pen was not weak, and it had completely reached the Earth Realm level, but it did not seem like an Earth artifact or an Earth weapon.

The mental power probes into it and obtains the voice information it carries.

"The secret treasure of the talisman array, the Luanhe Pen! This is the most top-notch earth-level secret treasure!"

"Take action, and you must seize this secret treasure. Don't let it fall into the hands of others."

"Get lost! The Luanhe pen is mine!"

The sound disappeared very briefly, but it allowed Zhou Qing to obtain enough information.

"The secret treasure of the talisman formation, the Luanhe pen?"

Zhou Qing seemed to be thinking about something. Secret treasures were not of the same type as regular magic tools and weapons, but they were even more precious.

From the words of those who fought for it, we learned that this Luanhe Pen belongs to the field of talisman formation.

The specific function is not explained clearly, but knowing this is enough. Zhou Qing can slowly explore it later.

The top-notch earth-level secret treasure can be sold at a high price even if it is taken out for sale.

Zhou Qing was very satisfied with these three things.

Once the level of the treasures is high, even if he can't use them, it will not affect their value.

High-level treasures, the hardest currency among hard currencies.

Let Frog continue on his journey, while Zhou Qing quietly waits for the transformation brought about by the Eye of True Vision to be completed.

In the blink of an eye, four days passed.

At the puppet refining pool, the fire gradually went out and all the array patterns disappeared.

Zhou Qing and Taoist Tiemu had already been waiting on both sides of the puppet refining pool. After the fire in the pool completely disappeared, the six spirit puppets shook their bodies and jumped out directly.

Its body turned pure black again, and the little bit of silver light that came with it when it was upgraded to a ground puppet also disappeared.

After feeling the current situation of the Six Spirit Puppets, Zhou Qing nodded with satisfaction.

"Its strength has indeed reached a new level, and it has successfully mastered the power of the Puppet Fire."

Looking at the six spirit puppets, Taoist Tiemu said with some envy:

"If this puppet can be trained in the future, it can be expected to become a Heavenly Puppet."

"Take good care of it."

Hearing this, Zhou Qing looked strange.

"Come on, it's time to leave."

Taoist Tiemu turned and left first, and Zhou Qing followed.

On the way out, the restrictions on the stone gate were no longer obvious until they reached the entrance of the cave. Taoist Tiemu once again used a drop of his own blood as a trigger to open it.

The two men left the cave and looked back, only to see that earth and rocks had collapsed in the passage inside the cave, but the cliff itself did not tremble, and soon, the passage disappeared.

Looking at this location from outside the cave, it seems that everything has returned to normal.

Zhou Qing said: "If this place can be preserved, it can actually be used as a base. At least it is very hidden."

Thanks to the Heavenly Puppet Master's methods, this place is difficult to be discovered and can indeed be used as a secret base.

Taoist Tiemu shook his head, "No, the inheritance has been taken away. Once the puppet refining pool is activated, this place can no longer support itself."

"Pity."

The two flew up the cliff, Taoist Tiemu took out the flying artifact and rushed towards Yujing City.

But before it flew out of the Taiheng Mountains, it stopped again.

Their eyes fell on a hill in front of them, and then Zhou Qing looked at Taoist Tiemu, and the other party did the same.

"Master, is that your man?"

"Zhou Qing, is that your man?"

When the same question was asked, both of them were stunned for a moment, and then their faces immediately became solemn.

Since I am not from any of them, then...

Four people flew out from the hilltop that the two men were paying attention to.

They were dressed in black robes and wearing masks, so their appearance could not be seen.

"Jie Jie Jie..."

A strange laugh was heard.

In the wild mountains and wilderness, it hides its head and shows its tail, laughing strangely.

If you say they are good people, then Zhou Qing is a great good man for ten generations.
