Chapter 334: Ancient Puppet Technique!

Chapter 334: Ancient Puppet Technique!

"Liu Ling, I will now impart to you another secret technique!"

Upon hearing Gu He's words, Liu Ling, who was crouching with Gu He's hand on his shoulder, quickly entered a focused state, ready to receive the information Gu He was about to transmit.

"System, transfer the Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique to my first disciple, Liu Ling!"

As Gu He gave the command in his mind, all the knowledge about the Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique, along with some of his own refining experiences, surged into Liu Ling's mind.

Gu He chose to impart the Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique to Liu Ling instead of Zi Yan and Han Yue for two reasons. First, as an alchemist, Liu Ling was more suited to learn this technique. Second, the refining process of the Heavenly Demon Puppet was too gruesome, and since most of Gu He's disciples were female, he decided that Liu Ling, being a man, was more appropriate to learn it.

In just a few moments, Gu He had transmitted the entire Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique to Liu Ling. After withdrawing his hand from Liu Ling's head, a notification sound immediately echoed in Gu He's mind.

"Ding, the host has granted the Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique to the first disciple Liu Ling. Congratulations, host, you have received a ten-thousand-fold return, obtaining the ancient secret technique, Seed Puppet Technique!"

"The ancient secret technique, Seed Puppet Technique, has been delivered to the system space. Please check it."

Ancient Secret Technique, Seed Puppet Technique!

Upon hearing the system notification, Gu He's consciousness immediately immersed into the system space.

At the center of the system space, beside the Abyssal Demon Flame, floated a completely pitch-black light cluster and a smaller purple light cluster, about the size of an egg.

The black light cluster was the returned ancient Seed Puppet Technique, while the smaller purple light cluster was the eight months of cultivation returned after transmitting power to Liu Ling.

At this moment, Gu He's attention was entirely focused on the black light cluster.

Ancient Seed Puppet Technique: Condense a puppet seed with one's soul power and merge it into another's soul. The person implanted with the puppet seed retains their original consciousness and can continue to cultivate normally, obeying the caster's commands completely. Unless someone has a soul realm far superior to the caster, they will not detect the puppet seed hidden deep within the controlled person's soul.

This technique is incredibly powerful, able to turn living people into puppets with their own consciousness, who can still continue to cultivate!

Reading the description of the ancient Seed Puppet Technique, Gu He was extremely excited. With such a powerful secret technique, he could potentially infiltrate various major forces and weaken them significantly without their knowledge.

However, the last part of the description was ambiguous. Gu He wasn't sure how much stronger another's soul realm needed to be to detect the puppet seed.

"Given my current soul realm, I wonder if those with god-level souls can detect the puppet seeds I've planted..."

"Never mind, I won't overthink it. By the time I can interact with such figures, my soul realm will likely be much more advanced than it is now."

Sighing inwardly, Gu He's consciousness slowly withdrew from the system space.

"Master, this Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique is amazing! It can create powerful puppets completely under one's control!"

As Gu He's consciousness exited the system space, Liu Ling had already received all the vast information and was exclaiming excitedly.

"The Heavenly Demon Puppet Technique is indeed marvelous. When you reach the Dou King realm and become a seventh-tier alchemist, the Heavenly Demon Puppet will provide you with immense assistance!" Gu He said calmly, acknowledging Liu Ling's excitement.

In the information Liu Ling had just received, it was mentioned that once a Heavenly Demon Puppet was successfully refined, it could be tempered by the Dan Thunder generated when refining seventh-tier or higher pills, greatly enhancing the puppet's strength.

The images of the Heavenly Demon Puppet that had appeared in Liu Ling's mind earlier had already captivated him. Hearing Gu He's words, Liu Ling earnestly responded, "Yes, Master, I will strive to improve my alchemy skills!"
After Liu Ling finished speaking, Gu He raised his hand lightly, indicating for Liu Ling to stand up.

Once Liu Ling stood up, a lotus-shaped azure flame suddenly appeared in Gu He's hand.

As the azure lotus flame emerged, an intense heat filled the small courtyard. If not for the seal Gu He had placed on the courtyard, the entire city might have felt as if they were in an oven.

"Master, what is this?" Liu Ling asked curiously, noticing the blazing flame in Gu He's hand.

Xiao Jin's eyes were also filled with curiosity. It could sense the terrifying energy contained within the small flame.

"This is the Green Lotus Core Flame, ranked nineteenth on the Heavenly Flames List. It originates from the depths of the desert's core. Today, I am bestowing it upon you as a reward for successfully completing your training!" Gu He extended his hand, slowly bringing the Green Lotus Core Flame towards Liu Ling.

Under the intense heat, sweat continuously dripped from Liu Ling's forehead.

"Master... you are too kind to your disciple..." Liu Ling swallowed hard, his voice choked with emotion as he saw Gu He giving him such a precious gift without hesitation.

Seeing Liu Ling's emotional state, Gu He couldn't help but scold him more sternly: "A man crying like this is unseemly. Even when Xian'er received her Heavenly Flame, she didn't behave like this!"

Hearing Gu He's reprimand, Liu Ling's face turned red with embarrassment.

Comparing himself to Xiao Yi Xian, he realized he was lagging far behind, which made him feel deeply ashamed as the senior disciple.

Trying to change the subject, Liu Ling asked, "Master, what kind of Heavenly Flame did Junior Sister Xian'er receive?"

Gu He replied directly, "Your junior sister received the Netherworld Poison Flame, ranked twentieth on the Heavenly Flames List."

Netherworld Poison Flame!

Liu Ling was utterly shocked upon hearing this. In just one day, he had encountered three legendary Heavenly Flames, and with Xiao Yi Xian's Netherworld Poison Flame, that made four. This was something he had never dared to imagine before.

Now, he was about to have his own Heavenly Flame.

"Stay calm, stay calm..." Liu Ling told himself, trying to suppress his excitement as he slowly reached out his trembling hand towards the Green Lotus Core Flame.

"Wait!" Gu He quickly slapped Liu Ling's hand down, scolding him, "You little fool, do you want your hand to turn into roast pork?"

Embarrassed, Liu Ling scratched the back of his head and grinned, "Master, I got too excited and forgot about the intense heat of this thing."

"Liu Ling, this is not an ordinary beast fire. Do not treat it lightly!"
