Chapter 404: The Heavenly Demon Puppet! Xiao Tian Huo's Method to Seal the Poison Body!
Su Qian's expression turned bitter the moment he heard the familiar voice behind him. He turned his head and saw a "familiar stranger," forcing a stiff smile.
"Ah… Pavilion Lord, you're back!"
"If I hadn't come back, how much more would you have bullied Zi Yan? You actually made her work as your laborer what were you thinking?"
Wu Tian's eyes locked onto the white bearded elder, Su Qian, as he spoke indifferently.
…
Me? Bully her?
Come on, you're too protective!
I spent a whole ten thousand medicinal herbs just to convince this little ancestor to help me, and you're saying I bullied her?!
Su Qian's mouth twitched, but he knew better than to argue.
Instead, he just smiled and said, "Pavilion Lord is right!"
Trying to reason with a man who spoils women like crazy? Pointless.
No matter how justified he was, he would still have to suffer financial losses in the end. It was better to just accept his fate.
"Not bad, these Magic Flame Valley resources are pretty decent. Han Feng, bring everything back to the Pavilion. Also anything that can be copied, make a copy for Jia Nan Academy."
Wu Tian casually flipped through the loot on the table, smiling faintly.
"Yes, Pavilion Lord!"
Su Qian's mood brightened instantly.
At least he wasn't leaving empty handed.
Herbs couldn't be duplicated, but techniques and skills could so this trip wasn't a complete waste after all!
"Hey, annoying ghost brother! This thing looks really fun!"
Zi Yan suddenly ran over, holding a bamboo scroll in her hands. She tilted her head curiously.
Wu Tian took the scroll from her.
It looked ordinary, but considering it had been treasured by a Seven Star Dou Sect like the Demonic Elder, it definitely wasn't something simple.
As he unrolled it, large, blood red characters appeared before his eyes
"Heavenly Demon Puppet!"
Wu Tian's eyes lit up with excitement.
Oh?
I completely forgot about this thing!
This was an amazing technique.
With this, he could create an army of puppets perfect bodyguards!
If he refined them, they could protect those he cared about at all times.
Take Xiao Yu for example if he hadn't arrived in time, Cai Lin Pavilion would have been put in a passive position.
But if he had these puppets, such situations would never happen again.
His power was growing, and that meant more enemies. He wasn't afraid of them but some enemies would target his weaknesses.
Wu Tian focused on the ancient text:
"The Heavenly Demon Puppet is neither a cultivation technique nor an ordinary Dou Skill. It is an ancient puppet refinement art. To refine a Heavenly Demon Puppet, three essential components are needed:"
"A body, a soul, and a magic core. The body serves as the vessel, the soul as the guide, and the magic core as the heart. With additional refining materials, one can create the ultimate killing machine!"
"The puppets are divided into three tiers: Heaven, Earth, and Human. Their strength depends on the materials used and the quality of the refining fire. They feel no joy, no sorrow, no pain only endless slaughter!"
Reading this, Wu Tian felt a bit of regret.
Damn, I should have saved those guys' souls instead of completely erasing them!
They would've made great puppet materials!
"Not bad… This puppet technique is pretty monstrous. That old Demonic Elder must have been saving up that Seven Star Magic Core for this."
"He really did prepare everything for us!"
Wu Tian chuckled playfully.
"Pavilion Lord speaks the truth!"
Su Qian nodded in agreement, but there was a strange glint in his eyes.
Wu Tian glanced at the old man and felt like he was hiding something.
Luckily, he had saved a few souls earlier he could still refine Human Tier Puppets.
After storing the bamboo scroll and retrieving the Seven Star Magic Core, Wu Tian scanned the area.
Most of the techniques and Dou Skills were trash to him, so he let Han Feng handle them.
Now, it was time to head back and check out Gu He's surprises.
After all, the Sky Demon Phoenix's corpse had another Seven Tier Magic Core inside it…
Back at Cai Lin City
Wu Tian successfully refined a batch of Human Tier Puppets to guard his people.
Even if their individual strength wasn't very high, they were still formidable shields.
As for Heaven Tier Puppets, he needed stronger bodies.
After a brief meeting with Xiao Tian Huo, Wu Tian handed him a batch of spirit repairing pills.
When Wu Tian brought up Yun Shan's corpse, Xiao Tian Huo was interested… but hesitant.
Its strength was too weak not a good vessel.
So, he asked Wu Tian for time to think it over.
Wu Tian respected his decision.
After all, this was a crucial resurrection he could wait for a Dou Sect level body or even a Dou Venerate.
A Dou Venerate corpse, combined with Xiao Tian Huo's soul, could allow him to surpass his former peak!
Suddenly, Xiao Tian Huo's eyes lit up with excitement.
"Pavilion Lord, I heard you brought back a girl with the Woeful Poison Body?"
Wu Tian raised an eyebrow.
"You know about that?"
"Of course! Do you have a way to suppress it?"
Wu Tian nodded.
"I do. But it's only a control method I still need a few more ingredients. You're saying… you have a sealing method?"
Xiao Tian Huo grinned mischievously.
"Hehehe… I do! I once had a friend with the Woeful Poison Body."
Wu Tian was stunned.
"You had one too?!"
"Yep! Just like you, I also "
Xiao Tian Huo had no idea that Wu Tian was also thinking about Yao Chen.
Seriously? Is the Woeful Poison Body on mass production?
First Yao Chen. Now Xiao Tian Huo.
Did every major alchemist have one of these "special friends"?
Xiao Tian Huo continued, "Back then, my friend had the Woeful Poison Body, so I created a sealing method. But… it only works once and lasts a maximum of three years."
"If the control method isn't found within those three years, the poison will erupt uncontrollably."
"But for Pavilion Lord… three years is plenty of time."
"I thought this might come in handy. Even if you don't need it, it's good to have as a backup!"
Wu Tian smiled in satisfaction.
"Not bad! In that case, forget about Yun Shan's body I'll get you a Dou Sect body soon!"
Xiao Tian Huo tensed up.
Did Wu Tian just casually promise to kill a Dou Sect like it was no big deal?!
He sighed in relief
Good thing I didn't settle for Yun Shan's weak body.
Wu Tian always rewarded those who contributed!
"This sealing method is called the Heavenly Flame Seal. It uses fire attribute techniques to suppress poison. If you add an exotic flame, the effect is even stronger!"
Xiao Tian Huo handed Wu Tian a small book detailing the method.
The moment Wu Tian touched it, he absorbed the knowledge.
After storing it away, he left immediately.
Watching him go, Xiao Tian Huo muttered to himself
"Hmm… why doesn't he just create a sealing method himself?"
"Oh… I'm so dumb. He already created a control method why would he bother with a temporary seal?"
"That's like… having a Heaven Tier Technique and then wasting time on Yellow Tier ones!"
