After successfully refining Fan Lao's corpse, Lin Feng did not immediately leave seclusion; this was merely an appetizer.
With a wave of his hand, the corpse of the kind-hearted Scorpion Bi Yan appeared in the secret chamber, along with the jade bottle sealing his soul and the seventh-order demon core required for a Dou Zong-level Heavenly Demon Puppet.
"Sizzle, sizzle."
Having succeeded the first time, for Lin Feng, who had already reached the perfect mortal realm soul and only needed to accumulate soul essence step by step to reach the spirit realm soul, the possibility of failure in refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet was no longer possible given his superior soul control and perception.
With the previous experience, Lin Feng boldly unleashed the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame this time, the blazing flames baking the corpse of the kind-hearted Scorpion Bi Yan until it sizzled.
This process would continue for a while, and Lin Feng didn't intend to waste any time. He only diverted a portion of his attention to control the flames, preventing them from burning Xie Biyan's corpse to ashes, while the majority of his mind was immersed deep within the body, slowly refining a purple-gold blood droplet radiating immense energy, attempting to advance further beyond the Dou Zong realm. The
originally dark secret chamber was now illuminated by the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, emitting a greenish hue. Anyone who entered with a weak heart would likely be scared half to death. Fortunately, the occasional sounds of the corpse being burned and processed brought a touch of life to the chamber.
However, the scene of the living processing the dead added an extra layer of eeriness and terror. It could only be said that the method of refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet was truly inhuman. In Lin Feng's memory, there seemed to be an even more evil and vicious method of puppet refining in the original work, something like a Blood Puppet.
However, although this puppet is evil, for alchemists whose combat power is relatively weak, having such a fearless guardian who can also devour pill lightning to evolve while refining high-level pills would be a great benefit.
Five or six days passed in the blink of an eye. With the experience from the first time, although this time they were refining a Dou Zong-level Heavenly Demon Puppet, the refining speed was significantly faster.
After burning Xie Biyan's corpse to a certain degree, Lin Feng waved his hand, and two beams of divine light shot out, opening wounds in Xie Biyan's chest and head.
The seventh-order demonic core, which had been prepared beforehand, floated into his chest under Lin Feng's control. He then took out a jade bottle containing Xie Biyan's soul, one of the "gift packages" for him.
"Ah, Lord Lin Feng, please spare me! I am a Dou Zong! I will serve you like a slave; it will definitely be useful to you!"
As soon as the jade bottle sealing Xie Biyan's soul opened, a weak soul floated out, knelt on the ground, and begged Lin Feng for mercy. Although he had reached the Dou Zong realm, apart from alchemists, most powerful beings' souls were untrained. Without the nourishment of a physical body for so long, he was already too weak to continue and was on the verge of unconsciousness.
"Senior Xie Biyan, you just came out of the jade bottle, and it seems you stepped out with your left foot first! Do you know that in a certain period of my hometown, the left was revered? Are you trying to order me around?"
Lin Feng, seeing Xie Biyan's miserable state, inexplicably mentioned an old custom from his hometown.
"You vicious wretch! I'll be waiting for you down there! You slave souls, refine corpses—a vicious wretch like you won't live long! Ah!"
Seemingly aware that Lin Feng wasn't going to let him go, Xie Biyan suddenly stood up and roared at Lin Feng, his entire body roaring as if he intended to self-destruct his soul and perish together with Lin Feng!
Seeing this, Lin Feng remained unmoved. With a wave of his hand, the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame extended upwards, causing the victim to emit a shrill scream.
"You couldn't do anything to me when you were alive, let alone now that you're just a wandering ghost. Oh, right, it seems there's no such thing here!"
Lin Feng rubbed his chin, pondering the concept of souls in the Dou Qi Continent, but ultimately couldn't come up with anything, so he stopped being distracted. With a wave of his hand, he tossed the Scorpion Biyan's soul into the hole in its head, returning it to its rightful owner.
Afterwards, Lin Feng multitasked, continuing to refine the corpse of the Scorpion-Biyan while simultaneously refining a higher-grade exotic metal, waiting for the opportune moment to fuse it with the corpse. Only in this way could his formidable combat power be guaranteed. As for the demonic beast's essence blood, it had already been prepared separately.
Of course, most of Lin Feng's mind was once again immersed in his body, refining the essence blood of the old Dragon Emperor Zhukun, not missing a single opportunity to strengthen himself.
"Moo!"
After the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit took turns alternating several times in the sky outside, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes in the secret chamber. After regaining his senses, his hands quickly formed hand seals, and he uttered a syllable. Then
, the Scorpion-Biyan corpse, the exotic metal, and the seventh-tier demonic beast's essence blood in front of Lin Feng seemed to receive some strange instruction. The metal quickly adhered to the surface of the Scorpion-Biyan and flowed, while the demonic beast's essence blood extended into the depths of its body through its open mouth.
At this moment, Lin Feng rapidly increased the supply of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, using its powerful fire force to compel the three elements to merge spontaneously. The powerful flames lasted for a full day, but fortunately, Lin Feng's cultivation technique was extremely strong, so he did not weaken.
"Buzz!"
In a certain instant, the Heavenly Demon Puppet was completely refined, and beams of crystal-clear light appeared on its body, turning bronze in the blink of an eye.
"Heaven, Earth, Man, Gold, Silver, Bronze, I've finally completed the human puppet," Lin Feng murmured, recalling the records of the Heavenly Demon Puppet in his mind.
"Thump!"
Lin Feng walked over to the human puppet, flicked his finger, and it emitted a strange sound.
"Not bad, not bad at all. It actually possesses the physical strength of a four-star Dou Zong, coupled with its fearless ability to face death. It could even contend with ordinary five-star or even six-star Dou Zong!"
"It's a pity. If I had obtained the method for refining that blood puppet, this puppet could have used Dou Techniques, making its combat power even more formidable!" Lin Feng shook his head, seemingly blaming the people of the Dou Qi Continent for not appreciating the secret techniques of their ancestors.
"Whoosh!"
After a moment of reflection, Lin Feng flicked his finger, sending a strand of soul power into the puppet's mind as a control hub. As for the puppet refined by Fan Lao, Lin Feng didn't do that. After all, a mere Dou Huang level puppet was nothing to Lin Feng; he could easily defeat it in a few moves.
He'd keep that for extorting that old fox, Yao Chen! In his soul state, he desperately needed such a puppet as a protector!
