Peerless Conceited God

Tang Xiaohu was unable to cultivate. As he laid on the bed, he couldn't help but recall the days when he was together with Bao Er. That was the first time he truly felt kinship after surviving a great disaster, and that was the happiest day of his life.

Little by little, a warm image appeared in his mind.

Bao Er believed that this was definitely a peerless treasure. Thinking of this, with a thought, Tang Xiaohu took out the metal statue that looked like a gorilla.

Of course, there were also many other methods, such as coercion, temptation, refining the soul, and so on.

Tang Xiaohu was prepared to try each and every one of them. Firstly, he would probe the sculpture with his consciousness, wanting to see what kind of structure it had, and then see if he could find the artifact spirit.

Following the entrance of his consciousness into the sculpture, Tang Xiaohu frowned, he felt that the interior was a mess, did he have to waste his 200 spirit stones, seems like Bao Er had also misjudged it.

However, as he looked deeper into the statue, he was shocked to find that the interior of the statue was extremely bizarre. It almost looked like a human body.

Other than Tang Xiaohu, no one else would ever think of the reason for the appearance of the statue, except for the fact that the person who created the sculpture used so much energy to create it.

'Could it be … '

Tang Xiaohu's brain opened, and suddenly a bold idea came to mind.

According to legends, during the ancient era, Daoist magics flourished, bringing forth many schools. Among them, there was a school that specialized in developing golem puppets, known as Puppet Faction.

The puppets that were created, because they did not have souls, relied entirely on their master's willpower. In battles, they did not have any scruples, and usually used a method of fighting to the death, causing the opponent's head to hurt.

Later on, in order to make more exquisite and powerful puppets, puppeteers would use living people to refine them. The method was cruel, and the person being refined could only be a puppet for all his or her life.

Countless puppeteers had been killed, and most of the puppets had also been destroyed, spread to this day, there were very few that Tang Xiaohu had heard of, at least in China, where there was a profession called Puppeteer. Even if someone accidentally found a puppet, they would not know how to use it, and carry it around with them as if it were useless.

Thinking about it this way, many things could be explained. No wonder those normal appraisers in the Immortal Cultivation Market of the Biluo City were confused, they would definitely not be able to appraise it.

Actually, Tang Xiaohu didn't have this information before either. He didn't know whether it was because he had fused with the dragon's blood, or because after signing the soul contract, he had obtained the memories and inheritances from the demon beast's bloodline.

However, it was a pity that there was only some vague information in his head. Even if it wasn't a real puppet, he didn't know how to use it.

To call it a puppet was only a preliminary assumption.

After Tang Xiaohu retracted his consciousness, he forced out a drop of blood essence and dripped it onto the statue's forehead. The blood essence immediately disappeared and was absorbed?

Tang Xiaohu was pleasantly surprised. Could it be that there was really some destiny between him and this treasure, and normally speaking, if the treasure was able to absorb the blood essence, it meant that he was willing to establish a master-servant relationship with you. Tang Xiaohu was inexplicably excited in his heart, wanting to see how this sculpture would change after absorbing the blood essence.

He waited for a long time, but there was no reaction, not even the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power. Even if the blood were to drip into the clear water, it would still have some effect.

"How can this be? Give me some reaction!" Tang Xiaohu shook the statue hard.

"Is this treasure not ordinary? One drop of blood essence isn't enough!" Although he felt that this idea was not reliable, Tang Xiaohu still decided to give it a try. At the very least, this thing did not reject his blood.

gritted his teeth and squeezed out a third drop. At that moment, his face was extremely ugly.

This blood essence was not ordinary blood, it was not like nosebleeds. In the meantime, dozens of drops did not affect one's health, as blood essence was different. This was a person's cultivation that was transforming their blood essence, and without a single drop, what was consumed was the origin of life.

Three drops in one breath, that was already Tang Xiaohu's limit. Seeing that this sculpture didn't have any reaction at all, Tang Xiaohu suddenly felt very angry in his heart, wanting to destroy it completely.

He raised his hand and hesitated for a moment, but he still couldn't raise his palm. If he had spent 200 spirit stones just now and had put 3 more blood essences into that, he would have suffered a huge loss.

Tang Xiaohu held onto the statue's neck, bellowed coldly, and said: "Monkey, I know you are not an ordinary person, you will definitely be able to hear my words, right?"

As he spoke to himself, the ice-cold statue had no reaction at all, let alone an answer.

Tang Xiaohu still did not give up. With an ice-cold tone, he threatened: "Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you don't say anything. This young master has methods to torture people, if you push me too far, you will directly turn into ashes and disappear from the Three Realms."
