Mysterious mirror hanging high

"If my child can achieve even half the potential of Fairy Yuan Xi, I will be worthy of our ancestors..."

Jing Yu nodded secretly after watching this. After this incident, Zhao Yuanxi developed a lot of connections in the cultivator circle and gradually gained some reputation.

At this moment, he looked at Zhao Yuanxi's elegant and calm face, and was suddenly startled, thinking:

"If Third Sister also had a spiritual root back then, would she be like Yuan Xi now? Or even do better than her?"

Memories always come unexpectedly, like a drop of heavy water hitting the back of the head, making Jing Yu's scalp numb.

He considered himself to be a person with a cold personality, but after awakening his longevity personality, it actually felt somewhat natural.

Perhaps because they both died of old age, the deaths of his father Zhao Sheng, with whom he had a weak relationship, or his mother Li Anruo, with whom he had a deep relationship, did not have much of an impact on Jing Yu, and he was able to accept their departure relatively calmly.

He once thought that he was the most suitable candidate for the fate of [Longevity]. After all, life is endless, and people around him will always leave. He always has to try to get used to saying goodbye, or rather, he is now used to saying goodbye.

His feelings for his third sister, Zhao Mingyu, were hardly deep. His image of her was far from perfect, even a little too calculating and mean...

To this day, when he recalled the appearance of his third sister, he did not think of her as the gentle and quiet young woman at an ordinary birthday party, but rather a skinny old woman with wrinkled skin and white hair, a gloomy and vicious look, sometimes wise and sometimes confused.

But when he caught a glimpse of his third sister in Zhao Yuanxi, Zhao Mingyu, who revealed his inner secrets, cleaned up his flaws and paved the way for him at the last moment of his life, suddenly appeared in his mind again.

It actually made him miss her for the first time in his life.

"Uncle?" Zhao Yuanxi brought Jing Yu, who was lost in his nostalgia, back to reality: "You are..."

"Nothing." Jing Yu smiled: "I thought of your grandmother."

"Let's go."

Jing Yu led this large group of Qi-cultivating monks and marched towards the fairy mountain in the center of the blessed land.

Although the air is restricted here and foundation-building cultivators can only fly ten feet, Jing Yu had learned from Yuwen Xiaoyan before that this blessed mountain is an active volcano with rich fire spirit. As long as he carefully feels the changes in the density of the fire spirit in the space, he can roughly know the direction of the mountain.

The group stopped and walked along the way, and met many Qi-cultivating monks. After hearing about the deeds of the kind-hearted elder Xuan Jing Taoist, they joined the team one after another. Soon the team led by Jing Yu grew from dozens of people to hundreds of people. They were quite imposing as they walked in the dense forest. Even many foundation-building monsters had to temporarily avoid them and escape when they saw them.

Jing Yu also took advantage of this opportunity to probe his spiritual sense into the Black Blood Taoist's storage bag and searched it carefully.

Apart from some spirit stones and commonly used elixirs and magical tools, the most valuable things are only four.

The first is the black flag that can summon two evil ghosts in the early stage of foundation building and a large group of ghost babies.

This magic weapon is quite sinister. The person who made it at that time killed countless innocent lives in order to make the banner. The ghost baby in it has almost been cleansed by resentment and turned into a monster that only knows how to kill. Even its soul and spirit are gone. Even if a few Taoist priests and monks perform rituals to save its soul, it is difficult to restore its intelligence.

Although this magical weapon is a great help to cultivators in the early and middle stages of foundation building, it is definitely not allowed to be seen in public in the righteous path. Ordinary righteous cultivators would probably feel disgusted if they used it on a daily basis.

After much deliberation, Jing Yu decided to ask Yuwen Xiaoyan to refine the black banner with true fire to see if he could get rid of the resentful soul inside, leaving behind the materials for the banner body, and see if he could sell it for some spirit stones.

If not, then it can only be destroyed directly.

The second thing is the secret jade slip of [Blood Puppet Body].

Jing Yu was quite interested in this thing. He used his spiritual sense to read it and found that it was indeed a secret method that was extremely suitable for him!

This [Blood Puppet Body] is actually quite simple to explain. The general principle is to use the essence and blood in one's body, supplemented with an appropriate amount of the essence of the flesh and bones of monsters, to refine a blood puppet clone that is connected with one's own spiritual thoughts.

This clone shares the same consciousness with himself, so there is no risk of backlash against the original body.

When it is not needed on weekdays, it can be directly integrated into the body of the deity, or it can be released to act independently. It is extremely functional.

It is said that even if you are far apart, you can still control it remotely and share the perspective.

"This technique seems to be of high status..." Jing Yu almost immediately realized that this might be the most valuable secret technique of the Black Blood Taoist, without a doubt.

The fact that the clone can maintain contact with the original body even at a very long distance is enough to make this secret technique one of the best!

As for shortcomings, of course there are some.

For example, after this [Blood Puppet Body] is refined, its cultivation level will probably be one small realm lower than the original body, and almost all of its core magical powers cannot be used. For example, Jing Yu's [Xuan Mirror], [Spirit Root Mirror Image], etc., cannot be reproduced on the [Blood Puppet Body].

In addition, the [Blood Puppet Body] cannot be used for physical training. With only some ordinary techniques, it is probably only able to compete for the title of the weakest at the same level. At most, it can bully low-level cultivators by relying on the huge gap in realm.

But this defect is actually not a big deal in Jing Yu's opinion. After all, he himself does not expect to use the clone to fight, but he is interested in the functionality of the [Blood Puppet Body].

After all, because it is a clone refined with one's own essence and blood, its aura is almost exactly the same as the original body, and it can be so realistic that it is indistinguishable from the real thing. This alone has many application scenarios.

Alternatively, you can place a [Blood Puppet] in each of the several immortal continents to help Jing Yu purchase and collect natural treasures and become a traveling trader.

The second shortcoming is even more fatal to ordinary monks.

After all, essence blood is not ordinary blood. Ordinary cultivators cannot squeeze out too much at one time. If they use too much blood, it may damage their foundation and shorten their lifespan.

It is for this reason that the Black Blood Taoists simply used the blood essence of their closest relatives to create three incongruous and low-profile versions of the [Blood Puppet Body].

But this is not a disadvantage for Jing Yu.

The longevity character grants him endless lifespan and also makes the vitality in his body far exceed that of ordinary cultivators. Even if his essence and blood are completely depleted, it will not damage the foundation of his immortal path, and he can recover extremely quickly after the loss.

Even if an ordinary foundation-building cultivator can create a [blood puppet body] within a few decades, his vitality will be seriously damaged.

What restricts the number of [Blood Puppet Bodies] Jing Yu can refine is its refining limit - a cultivator can only maintain three clones at the same time.

If [Blood Puppet Body] had no upper limit, Jing Yu could even spend thousands or even millions of years to create a "Blood Puppet Army" composed entirely of clones, with the entire team sharing a unified consciousness!
