Immortal Creation.

Chapter 706 Snow Color Girl, Snow Shuyu
Ning Zhuo also unearthed the Ling Shuang and Ao Xue Enlightenment Diagrams.

He sighed, realizing that he had never had the time to comprehend them.

"Hopefully, I'll have time in the future."

The most valuable among them are "Gao Sheng's Last Will and Testament" and "The Book of Punishments of the Underworld".

Ning Zhuo also found a Myriad Manifestations Cloud Seed at the bottom of the box. He had obtained it back in Fire Persimmon Immortal City.

Let's not even talk about the prisoners Lin You, Wu Hen, and the Bone Tomb Daoist.

Oh, and there's also the Heavenly Frost Ghost Mask. If used properly, that's a Nascent Soul level combat power!
Ning Zhuo's expression changed: "Strange, why didn't I think of using it during the battle against the Lord of Wangchuan?"

"Not only that, but also the Butterfly Maiden, I seem to have forgotten about them."

"Is it just because I'm nervous?!"

Ning Zhuo narrowed his eyes, unable to understand why he would forget.

It's incredible!

He only remembered this when he saw these things while examining his own assets.

Overall, Ning Zhuo's wealth is extremely substantial. While he may not be richer than a country, he is comparable to a wealthy village or town, and he still has a chance.

Those places that can form villages and towns are usually rich in cultivation resources. Otherwise, they would not be able to attract cultivators to gather there.

However, Ning Zhuo's asset distribution is quite distorted.

Many aspects can illustrate this point.

For example, as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, he is best suited to magical artifacts. Magical treasures are difficult for Foundation Establishment cultivators to fully utilize.

Foundation Establishment geniuses like Lin Jinglong and Shen Xi only possess two or three magical treasures because they receive financial support from their families.

Furthermore, they are not frequently used in combat. They are usually reserved for turning the tide of battle or delivering a decisive blow, providing tremendous assistance.

After all, the mana of a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator is hardly sufficient to support a level-one magic weapon.

Ning Zhuo possessed too many magical treasures, most of which were used for cultivation. He had two defensive magical treasures, but none for offense.

The vast majority of cultivators invest their assets in elixirs and talismans. The former is the most essential necessity in the cultivation process, while the latter is value-for-money and is far more convenient than arduous self-cultivation of spells.

Ning Zhuo has the fewest assets in these two areas; he has not even invested heavily in them.

He has many talismans, all gifts from others, and they are all exquisite, some even possessing spiritual power.

He doesn't need many elixirs because he has national strength bricks! He also has his own chef by his side. Whether it's spiritual food or national strength bricks, the side effects are far, far less than those of elixirs.

After examining his own assets, Ning Zhuo became aware of the situation and muttered to himself, "I need to make adjustments within the Myriad Manifestations Sect, focusing more on pills and talismans."

"Putting aside other things, if I purchase a batch of pills and talismans for physical cultivation, it will definitely increase my physical strength and solve the problem of the soul oppressing the body in a short time."

"The spirit stone reserves are far too low... We need to increase the reserves again!"

Ning Zhuo was a man with a huge fortune. It was only the battle at Baizhi Immortal City that bankrupted him.

After the inspection was completed, Ning Zhuo took out the Floating Ice White Jade Hand and the Weather Ball - Ice Crystal Snow.

The big-headed boy gave a wry smile: "My Ning family is renowned for its ice-related skills, but I am utterly useless in this area."

"I'm still too weak, there's so much I need to learn."

"To get Yuan Dasheng out of this predicament, we may have to rely on our own family members..."

The spirituality in the Floating Ice Jade Hands originated from Ning Xiaohui, and was already fully developed, possessing the innate talent of Ice Jade Hands.

The spirituality within the Weather Balloon: Ice Crystal Snow originates from Ning Xie. In life, she was an elder of the Ning family; after death, she became a Foundation Establishment Ghost Cultivator, hidden as the foundation of the Ning family. She possesses innate talent for Snow Soul and Ice Spirit, and her spirituality is already at its peak.

With these conditions, it could have been made into a mechanical doll long ago.

There was a reason why Ning Zhuo hadn't done this before.

On the one hand, it's enough.

Heavy Armored Blood Ape - Great Victory and Shadow Blade - Night Tiger served as the main combat force, and even performed well in the battle against the Lord of the Forgotten River.

The Buddhist physician Meng Yaoyin is Ning Zhuo's strongest trump card!
The Floating Ice Jade Hand is used as a healing method, while the Weather Ball Ice Crystal Snow is used to set up the battlefield and can also play a supporting role.

On the other hand, Ning Zhuo couldn't design it.

Designing a mechanical puppet is very difficult.

Thinking back to the original "Explosive Monkey" game, Ning Zhuo privately spent a long time and invested a lot of energy and resources. After countless improvements and adjustments, he finally produced a relatively mature product.

Yuan Dasheng's mechanical puppet didn't come from nowhere. When Ning Zhuo designed his mechanical body, it already had the foundation of the Fiery Monkey and the mechanical templates from the Lava Palace.

Even so, Yuan Dasheng's mechanical version underwent numerous improvements, eventually becoming the Heavy Armored Blood Ape type.

Designing a mechanical puppet is already difficult enough. What's even more challenging is constantly refining it through use and practice, adding or removing parts to the mechanism, and continuously improving it until it reaches a mature form.

Buddhist Physician Meng Yaoyin borrowed the mechanical template of the Lava Immortal Palace, essentially standing on the shoulders of the three masters.

The Shadow Blade - Night Tiger is somewhat special. Ning Zhuo had a stroke of good luck during that period; the design drawings scattered on the ground unexpectedly came together to form a design scheme.

As it turns out, this design was truly excellent.

Ning Zhuo has been using this Meng Ye Hu (a type of motorcycle) to this day.

Now, Ning Zhuo wants to elevate both of them to doll form, but he also faces design challenges.

Compared to before, he has much more confidence!

There is only one reason, and that is—the pages of the Luoshu (洛书) book.

This magical artifact is the origin of all divination arts in the world. With its help, Ning Zhuo can save a tremendous amount of time and energy. In terms of calculations, he will surely obtain the correct answer!

"We need to design and build these two puppets."

"Perhaps with the two of them, we can rescue Yuan Dasheng from the ice."

Even if it doesn't work out...

Even if it fails, it can still replenish Ning Zhuo's mechanical combat strength in time.

With the Buddhist Physician Meng Yaoyin, the Heavy Armored Blood Ape Dasheng, and the Shadow Blade Night Tiger all absent, Ning Zhuo needs another mechanical puppet to fill in.

The Underworld Messenger Qi Bai is not suitable.

Despite his powerful mechanical body, possessing magical artifact-level mechanical components, and the fact that he still has his golden core from his previous life and is naturally gifted, his spirituality is not at its full potential.

Furthermore, because Ning Zhuo was traveling, his spirituality had diminished somewhat.

Achieving a high level of spirituality is a turning point.

Before reaching this point, spirituality will be eroded by time. Once reached, even if spirituality is damaged, it can recover on its own.

"Boss, help me!" Ning Zhuo immediately used his divine sense to contact Sun Lingtong through the life-or-death connection.

Sun Lingtong was engrossed in studying array formations using the pages of the Luo Shu, when Ning Zhuo interrupted her, leaving her feeling helpless: "What is it now?"

Ning Zhuo did not immediately bring up the plan for the mechanical puppets, but first brought up another matter: "Boss, I just checked my assets and made a surprising discovery."

"Do you still remember the Frost Demon Mask and the Butterfly Maiden?"

"During the battle against the Lord of Wangchuan, I actually forgot about such valuable combat power and didn't even think of them. This is very unusual!"

Let's forget about Qi Bai, the messenger of the underworld.

He lacks spirituality, so even if Ning Zhuo were to use him, he would still have to control him himself.

Moreover, his combat power is concentrated in the Soul Path. Using him to deal with the Lord of the Forgotten River or the Imperial Guards is like showing off one's skills before an expert.

Sun Lingtong's expression turned serious, her eyes flickering uncertainly: "Xiao Zhuo, you're right!"

"That's a bit scary." "I know them both, but I forgot! There's no way I could remind you."

"Weird, this is so weird."

"Do you think this might be due to being misled by fate?"

Ning Zhuo nodded slightly. Sun Lingtong had guessed correctly; he thought so too.

"I am the savior of the White Paper Immortal City, sent here by Yang Tian."

"Perhaps these two things are more harmful than beneficial to me, so under the influence of fate, I have forgotten about them all."

The two discussed it for a while, but came to no avail.

On the contrary, it aroused the two brothers' strong desire for the art of fortune telling!

"I really want a legacy like that."

"But my mother told me that it's very difficult to get this...sigh."

Sun Lingtong: "Speak, why did you call me here?"

Ning Zhuo stated his purpose.

Sun Lingtong agreed without hesitation. He himself had some skill in mechanisms, but not as much as Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo is also inferior to Sun Lingtong in terms of formation.

Sun and Ning worked together, and with the help of the pages of the Luoshu book, they quickly produced a draft design.

Ning Zhuo, as if following a prescription, sent the cook and Gongsun Yan out to purchase the necessary precious materials.

Since he didn't have enough spirit stones, Ning Zhuo first took out three Ghost Dao Golden Pills and put them in the Trade Hall to exchange for enough procurement funds.

Seeing that Ning Zhuo had purchased a large amount of materials, Gongsun Yan had a guess in his mind and took the initiative to say to Ning Zhuo, "Young master, do you want to forge a weapon? I am not very talented, but I am willing to contribute my meager strength."

Seeing that Gongsun Yan had volunteered, Ning Zhuo thought for a moment and nodded gently: "Alright, I'll give you some tasks to refine."

Gongsun Yan then received some blueprints, his expression changing slightly. He thought to himself, "So, young master wants to forge mechanical components. Does young master also have knowledge of mechanical arts?"

"This cultivation technique is quite rare, and it's very difficult to achieve results. Why would you be interested in it, young master?"

"However, it seems that his natal magic fan uses some kind of mechanical trick?"

Gongsun Yan was somewhat puzzled. In his view, Ning Zhuo's mastery of the Five Elements was simply unfathomable, and such a bright future was the right path.

Mechanical arts are too niche.

However, these doubts did not prevent Gongsun Yan from giving it his all.

"This is the first task the young master has given me, and I must give it my all and do it perfectly!"

He examined the blueprints of the mechanism many times and first chose the Warm Jade Wheel to refine.

Gongsun Yan's refining process is quite different from that of ordinary people.

He first crafted a rough prototype, and then placed it in the furnace artifact.

Gongsun Yan pressed his palm against the furnace wall, channeling his magic power and talent into a ball of inner fire, which gently enveloped the rough jade wheel.

Xin Huo excels at fine work, and under Gongsun Yan's skillful hands, the rough blank of the warm jade wheel was meticulously carved out.

Gongsun Yan took out the cold steel and threw it into the furnace. Immediately, he pointed his fingers like a sword and swiftly pointed them in the air.

The cold steel melts and embeds itself into the warm jade wheel, forming a honeycomb-like grid.

The inner fire always envelops the warm jade wheel, and any slightly out-of-place cold steel will be precisely melted away.

Gongsun Yan successively invested three kinds of precious materials.

The precious materials melted in the furnace, transforming into a unified mixture of colors. These colors then fell onto the grid, forming tricolor enamel.

Gongsun Yan activated his inner fire, which penetrated into the warm jade wheel, burning out 360 micro-holes within it.

Having done this, he infused his divine sense with a powerful pull, drawing the enamel color through the micro-pores into the depths of the jade wheel.

Finally, the warm jade wheel was produced.

It floats in mid-air, slowly rotating. The outer ring has flowing frost-like patterns of three colors of enamel, while the inner ring has 360 pores that emit warm smoke.

After Gongsun Yan finished refining it, he looked exhausted.

"This is the most exquisite piece I have ever crafted."

"I wonder what kind of mechanism you, young master, can assemble with it?"

Gongsun Yan had extensive experience in weapon crafting. Even though he didn't understand mechanical arts, he still had some insight. He knew that such intricate mechanical components were rare. He also used two Golden Core-grade treasure materials as the main materials.

This means that the assembled mechanical artifact should be at the Golden Core level!

"Young Master and I are both Foundation Establishment cultivators. We want to create a Golden Core level mechanism... Is this really possible?"

"Regardless of success or failure, this is a truly grand gesture!"

After resting for more than an hour, Gongsun Yan restored himself to his peak condition.

He began to forge the next mechanical component, named the Cold Sundial.

Three days later, Gongsun Yan delivered five mechanical components to Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo checked it over and smiled with satisfaction.

He looked up and saw the utterly exhausted Gongsun Yan, and said gently, "As expected of the Heart Flame, it is very suitable for making such exquisite artifacts. Thank you, you have saved me a lot of hard work."

Gongsun Yan hurriedly said he dared not, and was very happy to have contributed his share.

Ning Zhuo nodded and told him to get some rest.

Gongsun Yan was disappointed that he did not see Ning Zhu assembling the mechanism, and obediently withdrew.

During these three days, Ning Zhuo used the three major mechanical bases to manufacture the remaining mechanical parts.

Among the myriad dragons, two puppets already have rudimentary forms. They only lack the assembly of the key components.

Soon, the assembly was completed. Ning Zhuo then used the life-sustaining thread to extract two wisps of spiritual energy and stuff them into their respective mechanical bodies.

The next moment, the mechanical components activated one after another, and the two mechanical puppets... came to life.

The doll on the left is six feet three inches tall, with a slender figure and graceful posture, and is in female form.

Her body was covered with a layer of three-color enamel nail polish, her cheeks were covered with snow porcelain face nail polish, and her black hair was woven mainly from ice silkworm silk.

Below the main arms, there are two other pairs of secondary arms.

Snow-Colored Woman - Wisdom!

The mechanical doll on the right is also six feet tall, but slightly shorter than Xuecai Nu Hui.

She is also in female form, wearing an ice-crystal helmet, which has reconnaissance capabilities. She is clad in hexagonal ice armor, the plates of which resemble a hexagonal honeycomb. The beast head she carries on her shoulders is a roaring ice dragon, and her eyes are inlaid with aurora glass, which can emit a cold light when she attacks.

Six mechanical spheres float around her at all times. The spheres are made of cold steel and covered with an array of ice crystal spider webs. They can spew out cold currents and create blizzards.

Snow Pivot Imperial - Rest!

Xue Cai Nu Hui looked down at her hands, first her main hand, then her two pairs of auxiliary hands, moving them alternately.

Xue Shuyu looked around and finally fixed his gaze on Ning Zhuo.

She slowly bowed and said in the voice of an older woman, "Greetings... Chieftain."
