Li Zhuo held the Jade Slip.
He mobilized his Dharma power, carefully injecting it into the Jade Slip.
"Ugh!"
"Headache!"
Under the guidance of the Dharma power, the Jade Slip emitted a faint glow.
At the same time.
Countless pieces of information suddenly appeared in Li Zhuo's mind.
Text, symbols, sounds...
The complex information formed the Cultivation method for the Qing Ying Kui Bing.
Li Zhuo sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, gradually accepting the information in his mind.
Thanks to the All Things Modifier.
This three-star Divine Ability now had no Cultivation difficulty whatsoever.
Li Zhuo only needed to systematically accept all the information, and he would naturally master the Qing Ying Kui Bing completely.
Otherwise.
Even a prodigy from a major School would have to put in a lot of hard work to fully learn this Qing Ying Kui Bing.
Under the Daosheng Qingwen Banyan.
Li Zhuo sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, as if an old monk had entered meditation.
Motionless.
The Daosheng Qingwen Banyan gently swayed its branches, sending wafts of cool breeze to Li Zhuo.
The Little Squirrel occasionally jumped over, staring with wide, blinking eyes.
Its eyes revealed a look of confusion.
However, the little fellow also knew that Li Zhuo was Cultivating.
Therefore, it did not disturb him.
After watching for a while, it returned to the fields to pull weeds and Deworming.
After one day and one night.
Li Zhuo finally opened his eyes.
"I'm hungry."
He mumbled.
He stood up and patted his tiger-skin skirt.
He then ate some unappetizing bear meat and two or three fruits.
Only then did he finally let out a long sigh of relief, a satisfied expression on his face.
"I'm full~"
"Although it doesn't taste good, at least it doesn't have the fishy smell of fish meat~"
"The Divine Ability is also fully mastered~"
"How comfortable~"
"Now, let's make a Puppet Soldier~"
"I need a wood-attribute Spiritual Plant, let me think..."
As he was speaking.
A tender green branch suddenly extended from the Daosheng Qingwen Banyan beside him.
Snap.
With a soft sound.
The branch broke off and fell into Li Zhuo's hand.
"Heh, thank you~"
He picked up the branch in his hand and checked its attributes.
As expected of a five-star Spirit Tree, it was indeed pure, with no other Impurities besides its wood attribute.
"Enough, enough~"
"If this were placed outside, this single branch would cause a bloody storm."
"A treasure indeed~"
As he spoke.
Li Zhuo formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
The wood-attribute branch began to move on its own, slowly floating up.
Suspended in the air.
Li Zhuo chuckled, lightly tapping the branch with his finger.
At the same time, he circulated his Dharma power according to the method of the Qing Ying Kui Bing.
In an instant.
The branch vibrated violently, constantly changing!
The various forks and green leaves on the original branch disappeared.
In their place were slightly thicker, straight branches, like the limbs and head of a small person.
The prototype of a Puppet Soldier had appeared!
Looking at the floating wooden figure, Li Zhuo nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he let out a long breath, adjusting himself to his optimal state.
He became serious.
"Now comes the most important step."
Li Zhuo raised his hand and pressed it lightly on the little figure's glabella.
Then.
His finger moved slightly, using his own Dharma power as a guide.
He outlined various mysterious symbols.
As his finger moved like a Dragon, the little figure actually emitted a faint glow.
Li Zhuo's gaze was serious, and he dared not be negligent, only outlining it bit by bit.
This process lasted for a long time.
It wasn't until half a day later that Li Zhuo finally stopped.
Then.
He formed a sword-finger gesture and pointed it sharply at the little figure.
"Chì!"
With a soft "pop" sound.
A brilliant azure light suddenly erupted from the little figure.
The original pure wood attribute actually transformed into a rich vitality.
Completely enveloping the little figure.
After another moment, the little figure absorbed all the vitality.
It was alive!
Holding the little figure in both hands, Li Zhuo chuckled.
"Successful on the first try, hehe~"
"When I have more Dharma power, I should be able to greatly shorten the process of making Puppet Soldiers."
"Let's test the effect of the Puppet Soldier~"
Li Zhuo's mind stirred.
He immediately had a very strange feeling.
In his mind.
Not only did he see what was in his own eyes, but it also included the Squirrel, fields, and lakes that the Puppet Soldier saw...
Although it was very strange, Li Zhuo felt no discomfort whatsoever.
As if this was how a person should naturally be.
Then, he tried to control the Puppet Soldier to move.
The small Puppet Soldier took steps and began to walk around swaggeringly.
This little fellow scared the Squirrel, who was observing from a distance, quite a bit.
It clearly remembered.
Not long ago, that was just a wooden stick, how did it turn into a little person now?
Li Zhuo naturally didn't know what the Squirrel was thinking.
At this moment, he was immersed in controlling the Puppet Soldier.
The small Puppet Soldier would somersault, then perform a set of fist techniques, and even pick up stones to throw at the Little Squirrel...
He was having a blast.
The Little Squirrel, hit on the head, was fuming.
It clenched its tiny fists and jumped directly in front of the Puppet Soldier.
It was about to teach this unknown "monster" a lesson.
Li Zhuo was startled.
He couldn't let the Little Squirrel break the Puppet Soldier he had worked so hard to create.
He quickly controlled the Puppet Soldier to flee back to his side.
He also finally fully understood the various characteristics of the Puppet Soldier.
"What is this thing?"
The Little Squirrel, shaking its tiny fists, came to Li Zhuo's side, looking coldly at the Puppet Soldier with a rather unfriendly gaze.
"A small Divine Ability."
"Can a Divine Ability create living beings?" The Little Squirrel was very puzzled.
Although it believed Li Zhuo was extremely powerful, he couldn't be that powerful, could he?
To bring inanimate objects to life, even an Immortal wouldn't possess such a method, would they?
Li Zhuo naturally saw the Little Squirrel's confusion.
He explained, "Of course not creating living beings, this is just one of my Clones."
"So..."
The Little Squirrel picked up a stone from the ground, weighed it in its tiny paws, and said,
"Was it you who threw a stone at me just now?"
"..."
After a moment of silence, Li Zhuo pointed to the wheat field behind him, "There are bugs gnawing on the wheat sprouts."
"Huh?!"
Upon hearing this, the Little Squirrel quickly dropped the stone.
It dashed to the wheat field to remove the bugs.
"Because my Dharma power is very little and very impure."
"This resulted in the Puppet Soldier only inheriting half of my strength."
"It's almost incapable of combat."
"And with my current Divine Sense state, I can only control one Puppet Soldier as if it were my own arm."
"Any more, and it would affect me."
"But this is enough."
"With it, I can easily explore the surrounding environment."
"And I can also take Little Red to dig up those Spiritual Plants~"
"That's great~"
Muttering contentedly, Li Zhuo immediately summoned Little Red.
Since acquiring a Spirit Stone.
Little Red, besides exploring for nearby Spiritual Plants, would lie on the Spirit Stone and Cultivate.
This diligence made Li Zhuo feel a bit ashamed.
Slithering to Li Zhuo's side, Little Red lowered its head: "Master, what are your commands?"
Li Zhuo pointed at the little figure and said, "Go into the mountains and find a Spiritual Plant; it will lead the way for you."
The little figure jumped and landed on the triangular snake head.
Sitting cross-legged.
Although Little Red didn't know what this was, it would absolutely obey Li Zhuo's command.
"Yes!"
"Oh, right."
Li Zhuo picked up a stone and threw it at the Squirrel.
"What are you doing!?"
"You go too!"
...
Watching the snake and Squirrel depart, Li Zhuo stretched.
He lay down on the bearskin mattress to rest.
"With the Puppet Soldier, my range of activity has greatly increased."
"The matter of Safe Zones also needs to be put on the agenda."
"Once Safe Zones are established, powerful beings will be needed to guard them."
"Currently, I only have Little Red, the Little Squirrel, and the Fire Luan."
"Moreover, daily cooking and maintaining the Safe Zone wasted a lot of time, causing me to have no time to check the Spiritual Plants within the Safe Zone these past few days."
"I'm short-handed..."
