Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 171 - 165: Zhu Qingqing: I Think You’re Too Extreme!
"Then let me make you give up completely... Hm?"
Seeing Su Yuan’s operation in the Sixth Ring, Zhu Qingqing was taken aback.
In the scene of the Sixth Ring, there was Su Yuan, the examinee, and the human puppet he had crafted in the first three levels.
Besides that, he materialized some new materials.
These materials included a nail exuding a sinister aura, along with various items resembling spices.
The middle three levels revolved around enhancing the Vermilion Face White Bone Puppet, and the examinee could naturally materialize enhancement materials during this phase.
As long as he did not exceed a certain amount.
But Zhu Qingqing had never seen such materials used to enhance a human puppet.
Logically, the materials for upgrading a human puppet, apart from parts disassembled from the human body, would be some metallic or bone reinforcements. What exactly had Su Yuan materialized?
Then, she watched as Su Yuan nailed the head of the human puppet, disemboweled it, filled it with various spices, and then sewed it back up.
The whole process was as smooth as performing a delicate surgery.
The skin of the sewn-up human puppet showed no trace of injury.
Then Su Yuan, without pausing, began to concoct some kind of spiritual water, which he carefully poured onto the human puppet.
The human puppet’s skin, along with its internal bones, began hardening at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Soon after, the puppet, without any control from anyone, stood up straight, bared its fangs, and attempted to bite, but was pressed back by Su Yuan.
Afterward, Su Yuan carried the human puppet to a blade testing tool in the Sixth Ring to undergo hardness testing.
The blade, adhering to the predetermined force, slashed down and only left a white mark on the surface of the human puppet.
Passed!
Su Yuan hugged the hardness-enhanced human puppet and stepped into the Fifth Ring, which had one more ring than the Fourth Ring.
Time taken for the fourth level: five minutes!
"Is the enhancement completed just like that?"
Zhu Qingqing was in disbelief. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
However, after observing for a while, she vaguely realized something.
"Could it be that this kid used the Secret Corpse Refining Technique of the Undying Bone Nether Sect!"
"Didn’t they say that a hundred thousand years later, in the Cultivation Realm, the Demon had diminished, and the Demon Dao had long been suppressed and unable to rise?"
"How did this kid manage to practice this forbidden art to Great Success?"
Zhu Qingqing was a bit bewildered.
She felt she had been deceived.
Could it be that the outside world is ruled by demons?
Otherwise, how could such a method that even demonic cultivators avoid be so widespread?
"Hmph, just a lucky little fry."
"He just happened to learn the Corpse Refining Technique of the Undying Bone Nether Sect and our sect’s Puppet Refining Technique, nothing much."
In front of Taibai Phecda, Zhu Qingqing put on a disdainful appearance.
Though in her heart, she clearly knew that Su Yuan’s operation just now looked difficult, but was actually not simple at all.
To blend together two completely different Demon Techniques, one must first thoroughly comprehend these two Demon Techniques, otherwise, they would conflict.
Not to mention that Zhu Qingqing did not know the content of Ancient Corpse Refining; even if she did, combining the two would take time.
Absolutely impossible to accomplish what Su Yuan did in just five minutes.
This made Zhu Qingqing realize that Su Yuan was definitely not just for show.
"However, trying to reach me within an hour is not that simple."
"In the fourth stage, you had the Secret Corpse Refining Technique, but what do you have for the fifth stage?"
"To achieve Class A precision control of the human puppet, besides the puppet itself needing to be flexible enough, the key is years of blending with the human puppet."
"Only by understanding the human puppet as fully as a Sword Cultivator understands their Lifebound Flying Sword, can the precision control meet the standard."
"Although top-level talent can shorten this process, turning a human puppet into a walking corpse will make its body too stiff, greatly increasing the difficulty of improving precision control!"
"You made a poor move in the previous stage."
Thinking of this, Zhu Qingqing’s lips curved:
"After all, you are younger than me by a hundred thousand and eight thousand years."
"Not knowing that the most important thing in puppet crafting is making choices; throwing in all kinds of materials just causes serious redundancy."
However, to Zhu Qingqing’s surprise, upon entering the Fifth Ring, Su Yuan did not hesitate at all, directly placing the human puppet in front of the detection magical treasure for testing.
The detection magical treasure for evaluating control precision was also a puppet, with eight remarkably long arms.
Each arm had over a hundred joints, capable of performing countless tricky maneuvers.
To achieve Class A control precision, the puppet must evade continuous attacks from the detection puppet for thirty seconds.
Of course, the frequency of attacks by the detection puppet during these thirty seconds corresponds to the cultivation level of the examinee.
The assessment standards for Taibai Phecda and Su Yuan were completely different.
Yet even so, the speed of the detection puppet’s strikes was swift as the wind, each move cunning and lethal.
However, under Su Yuan’s control, his human puppet astonishingly evaded at a terrifying reaction speed, unscathed.
The stiffness resulting from refining the human puppet into a walking corpse seemed non-existent!
It was as if the human puppet’s performance had been boosted by some kind of enhancement, dramatically increasing!
In the blink of an eye, thirty seconds passed, and having achieved a Class A rating in control precision, Su Yuan hoisted the human puppet and charged straight into the Fourth Ring.
Including the time spent on traveling, Su Yuan only stayed in the Fifth Ring for forty seconds.
Now, there was only one ring between him and Taibai Phecda.
"Wait, I’m a bit confused, why can’t I understand this kid’s operation?"
