I played the world alone

Chapter 396 Refining! ([-]-in-[-])

This crack is much larger than the one in the ancient small world, so the degree of pollution around it is also higher.

Even at this moment, Lu Chen could see outside along the crack.

There seemed to be some ever-changing shadows shaking slightly in the darkness, sometimes turning into human figures, sometimes turning into some unknown animal, or just a weird shape.

It seems that there are some of the most disgusting sins and malice in the world hidden inside. It makes you feel uncomfortable if you look at it more, as if your spirit is being polluted.

Even after taking a second look, I could feel some sneaky whispers in my ears, intermittent and thin.

Lu Chen only felt a chill on his back. He had an inexplicable feeling that when he was a child, he watched ghost movies. It wasn't the bloody scenes that hit his face, but something that seemed normal at first glance, but after thinking about it carefully, the more he thought about it, the more spooky and scary he felt.

He quickly withdrew his gaze and got rid of the distracting thoughts that had just entered his heart. In order to avoid a long night and many dreams, he immediately started to repair it.

As before, start mobilizing the origin of the world to repair it.

This crack was like a baby that had been hungry for a long time, greedily licking the original power of breast milk, and the crack began to slowly shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Now that he has the original supplies of the ancient Tai Small World, his hands are relatively loose, allowing him to eat with confidence.

The evil spirits around seemed to have realized this and began to surge crazily. However, Lu Chen, who was well prepared, blocked them in advance so that they could only go out but not in.

In the blink of an eye, the cracks had shrunk to just the last hole.

Just like last time, he stopped decisively to avoid starting the next flashback immediately.

However, the impact of this level of cracks is already very small, and the world can slowly repair itself.

And what is needed next is to clean up the evil spirit here.

But just as he was thinking about how to solve so many evil spirits here as quickly as possible, he suddenly found that those evil spirits suddenly began to slowly and inexplicably decrease.

After observing carefully for a while, I discovered that the special formations inside the puppet's body were slowly devouring the surrounding evil energy.

"You actually have this kind of ability..."

It seems that the real purpose of the original owner placing this puppet here is actually this.

But it may be that the cracks later expanded and the evil energy leaked out because it could not be completely suppressed.And the original owner couldn't take care of this place for some unknown reason.

Considering the introduction of the previous system, this place should have been really abandoned.

However, this puppet's speed of digesting evil energy is really slow. I don't know how long it will take to digest it like this.

Lu Chen originally planned to leave directly, but suddenly he heard a notification sound coming from the system that had been silent for a long time.

[I found an ownerless puppet. Do you want to tame it? 】

"Ok?"

Lu Chen froze on the spot and looked back with a strange look.

"System, are you sure I can conquer this big thing?"

This behemoth is like a big mountain, and I am much smaller than an ant in front of it.

Moreover, the strength level of this thing is at least the stage of divine transformation, which is a whole step higher than mine!
Can this be conquered?
[This puppet is currently ownerless and is set to be controlled by the will of the world. The current host has been recognized by this world, and the success rate of subjugation is synchronized with your current strategy progress]

Lu Chen looked at his progress bar which had reached 99% and couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

[Because its strength exceeds your own strength, you can choose to use one of the three puppet places, and the system will refine it on your behalf]

It turned out to be the case.

He kind of understood.

It still has to be solved by the system.

But that also meant that he had to give up one of the three puppets.

The puppets he currently has are White Snake, Fahai, and his "senior brother" Yuexiong.

After much thought, I finally decided to give up on Fahai.

After all, one of the other two is the president of the Monster Clan Association, and the latter is killing zombies and working in the ancient small world. They are both one of the channels of communication with the real world, and they are also important actors.

But Fahai is simple.

At present, it is only kept as a corpse in Buddhism for study or worship. If he is given up, at most it will become a corpse without any chance of resurrection, so it should not be a big problem.

"Then it's settled!"

……

"Dong dong dong..."

In a Buddhist hall, a group of monks were kneeling and chanting sutras, while a monk in Zen robes sat next to him and struck wooden fish slowly and heavily.

In front of them, in addition to the large golden Buddha statue, there was also a mummy packed in a glass cabinet.

It was the body of Fahai that was excavated originally!

After the relevant departments collected some skin and other tissue samples, due to the strong request of the Buddhist Association, they solemnly handed over the body as an important Buddhist token.

Of course, official people would still come over frequently to check to prevent the body from being used for any bad purposes.

And some people have also found that when chanting sutras and chanting Buddha's name in front of this corpse, their hearts will quickly calm down and enter an ethereal state, and the effect seems to be better than usual.

Although I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, Buddhism began to pay more attention to it after discovering this. Ordinary monks have no chance to get close to this place and can’t even take a second look.

All those who can be here are eminent monks who were famous in the past.

But at this moment, the monk who was knocking on the wooden fish suddenly paused, and even the voices of the others chanting sutras were a little confused.

"what happened?"

Someone asked dissatisfiedly.

If the normal rhythm is messed up, just adjust it as soon as possible. Why are you still stuck in place?

I saw the monk looking up blankly in the direction of Fahai's body, frowning slightly, with a somewhat uneasy look on his face.

"Just now, I suddenly felt that there seemed to be some change in the body of the eminent monk Fahai..."

"Variety?"

Others are a little puzzled.

They looked at the body and couldn't see anything different.

Besides, what else can happen to this corpse?Moreover, there are surveillance cameras everywhere, and the security force is extremely strong. Is it possible that someone would dare to come here to steal the body?
"How about telling me where there are changes? Maybe this is also a symbol that you have understood some kind of Buddha nature?" one of them asked in a persuasive way.

The monk was also a little unsure and shook his head: "I don't know either. I just suddenly felt..."

He hesitated, not knowing whether to continue.

He suddenly felt that the sacred feeling of this corpse disappeared in an instant and turned into an ordinary mummy.

It's just that these words were a little too rebellious. If others knew that he had such thoughts, I'm afraid they would kick him out on the spot.

So I hesitated for a while and still didn't dare to say it.

"Maybe I was just distracted for a moment. Let's continue."

Everyone did not doubt his presence and continued to chant sutras and recite Buddha's name. …

"Give up Fa Hai's puppet."

After Lu Chen made his decision, he immediately felt that he was disconnected from a certain connection deep in the distant space.

Fahai's body should have completely turned into a mortal by now.

The next matter of refining the puppet in front of us will be left to the system.

Soon, the system begins to take over his body.

Looking from the perspective of a bystander, he saw that his Nascent Soul's body was slowly growing in size until it almost became like a hill.

This was the first time Lu Chen saw this function, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

Feelings’ own understanding of the magical powers they possess is not as good as the system’s…

But it makes sense when you think about it.

After all, these skills are all collected from the system.

After thinking wildly for a while, he quickly concentrated on observing the next movements.

Now that it has become the size of a small mountain, the gap between it and this puppet is not as big as before.

I saw Yuanying slowly flying up until it reached the position between his eyebrows, and he squeezed a few magic formulas into it, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to surge wildly, and even the sea water began to churn, as if it was boiling.

At the same time, what he didn't know was that the originally calm sea suddenly began to become windless and the waves continued to crash, and the sky became darker and darker.

Lu Chen was staring at the movements of his Nascent Soul when he suddenly felt his surroundings suddenly light up. He subconsciously looked down along the light source and saw the puppet's eyes open, revealing a pair of very lifelike but lifeless eyes.

Those pupils were like two high-power searchlights, illuminating the supposedly dark seabed like daylight!

This scene scared Lu Chen, but fortunately, he quickly determined that it had no intention of attacking, and seemed to be just verifying the identity of the person who woke it up.

The light gradually dimmed, and at the same time, there were loud cracking sounds all around, and the ground under the sea was shaking like an earthquake.

If you look carefully, you can see that the puppet is slowly shrinking...

The entire refining process lasted about twelve hours.

The system first uses various exquisite spells and spiritual energy control to fully awaken the puppet, and then shrinks its size until it is almost the same height as a normal person.

After that, everything was "patched" slowly by infusing it with my own spiritual energy.

This process was extremely long, but many of the techniques and the delicacy of precise control of spiritual energy made him feel that he had learned a lot and gained quite a lot of insights, which he might be able to use in the future, so it was not a loss.

Finally, around the morning of the next day, this long refining process finally came to an end.

At this time, the puppet had completely transformed into an ordinary person, and even the clothes on it had shrunk in size, and it stood quietly in front of Lu Chen.

After careful observation, you can find that the appearance is indeed lifelike, almost exactly like the real person.

If you put it in front of others, they probably wouldn't be able to tell whether it is true or false.

But of course there are also shortcomings.

After all, it is not a puppet made natively by the system, so its functions in all aspects are somewhat imperfect, and it cannot imitate humans perfectly like Bai Suzhen or Yuexiong.

For example, its body is still an empty shell, with only one core filled with top-quality spiritual stones as its core driver, and no other flesh and blood can be seen.

And when he speaks, he is extremely cold, neither laughing nor crying, and his face is always expressionless.

However, if you look at it from another angle, it can be regarded as the majesty and arrogance of a peerless strong man. He is not hypocritical to other people and has no interest in talking to him.

If you think about it this way, you will have fewer flaws.

Of course, no one should have the courage to suspect that a boss in the transformation stage is actually a puppet.

That's right, Lu Chen finally confirmed the strength of this puppet.

But this is the remaining strength after he has completely refined it.

"It is estimated that the original strength is not only at the divine transformation stage, but may even be higher..."

He guessed.

After all, the pressure on him is obviously much lower now than when he first started.

Although it has the effect of recognizing the master, the loss of its own strength is also one of the reasons.

The system spent a lot of energy in order to allow him to fully accept puppets in his current state.

"But even so, my strength is still in the divine transformation stage, which is completely enough for me at this stage."

Because he is now a Nascent Soul, he can even be directly possessed by the Nascent Soul, directly feeling the terrifying power from the Divine Transformation Stage, which is also of great benefit to his own state of mind.

In addition, after the puppet was conquered by himself, the trench here has been revealed again, and the remaining cracks in the world still remain in its original position and have not moved with the puppet's departure.

Fortunately, this size will not affect the surrounding sea area, otherwise Lu Chen would really have to consider whether to take away the puppet.

……

When he returned to Ningchang City with the puppet, he was a little surprised to find that there were already two other Nascent Soul stages around Pingxuan.

Lu Chen didn't expect that the other party would move very quickly. He had already called his old friend just two days after leaving.

As soon as they saw his appearance, Ping Xuan and others immediately became excited, unable to sit still at all, and rushed over to greet him without hesitation.

"Fellow Daoist Yueze, you are finally back! If you had come back two days later, we might all have risked our lives to find you."

He said half-jokingly.

But Lu Chen felt that they might actually do it.

After all, it is about their life and death. Who can watch the chance of survival slip away!

The other two new friends were a little more reserved because they were not familiar with each other yet, and they just introduced each other politely.

Ping Xuan suddenly noticed the puppet following Lu Chen and couldn't help but wonder: "Hey, this is..."

I don't know why, but I always feel that the other person looks familiar, but I just can't remember where I've seen him before.

"Oh, this is an old friend of mine, who is also in the early stage of Nascent Soul. Because we happened to meet him on the road and we got together."

Lu Chen gave a brief introduction.

In order to avoid trouble, he also asked the system to slightly change the appearance of the puppet during refining, so as not to cause commotion.

At the right time, he controlled the puppet and suppressed his momentum to leak out a little.

"That's it." Ping Xuan suddenly realized that he was there.

There are not many Nascent Soul stages in this world. Maybe I have seen them once before in a dojo where there was a martial arts competition.

Besides, it's not important.

Then, he couldn't wait to ask the question that concerned him most.

"Fellow Taoist, I wonder how the medicinal materials are prepared?"
