Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master

Chapter 81: Yuan Dasheng\'s Rebirth!

As Ning Zhuo\'s soul returned to his body, the puppet body he was inhabiting scattered to the ground with a crash.

However, when Ning Zhuo quickly returned, the puppet body rapidly reassembled itself on the ground and soon stood up again.

At the same time, the teleportation circle spat out Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse.

Seeing this scene, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit suddenly felt a darkness before its eyes.

The situation it most dreaded had happened!

For a moment, it glared at Ning Zhuo with wide dragon eyes, nostrils flaring, and with each breath, it spewed sparks.

But Ning Zhuo didn\'t feel anything at all.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit\'s breathing grew more intense, and it roared to the heavens in fury!

The roar echoed in all directions, shaking the entire Immortal Palace.

Sound waves quickly leaked out, causing magma to splash on the peak of Mount Huoshi, dispersing a large expanse of smoke and clouds.

City Lord Meng Kui abruptly opened his eyes and immediately interrupted his cultivation: "Is it happening again?"

In the main hall of the Lava Immortal Palace.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit frantically darted about in mid-air, constantly spewing fire pillars from its mouth, burning everywhere as if it had gone mad.

The Lava Immortal Palace grew increasingly turbulent.

Against the backdrop of the sky-high flames, Meng Kui\'s expression grew darker.

Ning Zhuo was completely unaware of this.

In the room he was in, it was peaceful and serene.

After quickly examining Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse, he felt both surprised and disappointed.

He was surprised because, on his first attempt, he had successfully brought Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse into the Lava Immortal Palace. This was a brand new experience for him.

He was disappointed because he had specifically hidden storage bags above and inside Yuan Dasheng\'s body. However, neither of these bags had been transported.

"I was constantly sensing the Buddha Heart Demon Seal during the palace entry process."

"Sigh, if only I could bring in a large amount of materials."

"The resources available in the Lava Immortal Palace almost always require the expenditure of limited spirit stones."

If he had a large quantity of materials, Ning Zhuo was confident he could make the first three levels impenetrable!

Calming his emotions, Ning Zhuo began to ponder what to do next.

He had successfully brought in the ape corpse, but how could he deliver the ape corpse to the Immortal Palace?

He didn\'t know this step of the process; he was severely lacking in information.

This information should have been provided promptly by the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, but now it was gritting its teeth, frantically fleeing in the main hall.

Behind it, a fire whip was flying.

Crack! Crack!

The fire whip continuously lashed the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, even as it flew swiftly around the pillars.

At the top of Mount Huoshi.

Meng Kui, exerting all his strength, frantically urged his spells, conjuring a large hand to suppress the Lava Immortal Palace.

The radiant beams from the Lava Immortal Palace soon pierced through the large hand.

Meng Kui sighed helplessly and had to activate the grand formation of Huoshi Immortal City. With the power of the grand formation, he finally managed to stabilize the situation.

"What on earth is making the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit go crazy?!"

This time, the scale of the Lava Immortal Palace\'s upheaval was unprecedented.

Therefore, the pressure on Meng Kui was immense.

Meng Kui could even discern from the dragon roars transmitted outside the palace a strong sense of unwillingness, rage, and exasperation. And… also the sound of miserable wails and cries of pain.

At first, there was only one fire whip lashing at the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit. But as it continued to resist and shirk its duties, the number of fire whips increased.

Five or six fire whips now chased the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, relentlessly striking it!

The entire spiritual body of the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was being lashed into a dim, ethereal state. Unable to endure any longer, it had to speak and convey the critical information.

In the room, Ning Zhuo was preparing to make some attempts. Upon receiving the information, he frowned slightly, "The Lava Immortal Palace seems to be severely damaged. Such important information should have been communicated immediately."

Without any hesitation, Ning Zhuo acted immediately and dragged Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse to the door.

His small puppet body found it extremely difficult to drag Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse, taking considerable time and effort.

Once Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse was dragged to the door, a teleportation circle appeared and swallowed it up.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit curled up in a corner, enduring the continuous lashes of the fire whips with pain, a look of utter despair on its face.

It knew that Ning Zhuo had made the most appropriate choice!

Even if Ning Zhuo brought in the corpse of a Golden Core stage cultivator to create a spiritual puppet, Ning Zhuo would not be able to control it.

But Yuan Dasheng was not a Golden Core; he was at the third layer of Qi Refining, ninth layer of Essence Refining. Using him as raw material, the resulting puppet creation would be just at the edge of Ning Zhuo\'s control limit.

The most crucial point was the celestial aptitude!

Materials with celestial aptitude were extremely rare and highly valuable!

The Lava Immortal Palace had four levels of furnaces: copper, iron, silver, and gold.

To refine materials with celestial aptitude, the gold furnace must be used. Once used for refining celestial materials, even the gold furnace can only be used once!

Since the construction of the Lava Immortal Palace, there had been at most eight gold furnaces, and now only four remained.

Now, to refine Yuan Dasheng, another gold furnace had to be used.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit desperately didn\'t want to see this happen, but reality was harsh for it!

It had no choice but to comply, controlling the entire Immortal Palace to place Yuan Dasheng\'s corpse into the gold furnace.

The gold furnace began the refining process.

A massive amount of spiritual energy started to be consumed, and a magnificent beam of light shot out from the gold furnace.

The light was blindingly bright, shooting straight into the sky, thick as a pillar.

"What is happening now?" Meng Kui was astonished. He hurriedly used the grand formation to summon clouds and smoke, doing his best to cover the towering pillar of light.

"If only I could enter the Immortal Palace…" Meng Kui gritted his teeth in frustration and could only sigh.

His expertise in mechanisms was very low. To be more precise, by the standards of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, it was extremely low.

Thus, he hadn\'t been chosen and couldn\'t enter the Lava Immortal Palace.

In this regard, he was even less qualified than some Golden Core and Foundation Establishment cultivators who had been admitted after the palace\'s standards were lowered.

Among his subordinates, two Golden Core cultivators, like him, hadn\'t been chosen by the Immortal Palace.

Some of his Foundation Establishment subordinates had been selected and could enter the Immortal Palace. But overall, the advantage was not significant enough to differentiate them from the Zhou and Zheng families.

Because of this, after the appearance of the Immortal Palace, Meng Kui personally took action, stationed himself at the mountain peak, and used the investigation as a reason to seal off the entire Immortal Palace, temporarily preventing all cultivators from entering.

The Zhou family and the Zheng family did raise objections, but Meng Kui strongly rejected them. After all, the City Lord’s mansion also did not send any cultivators to directly enter the Immortal Palace.

Meng Kui, representing the Southern Dou Dynasty, used the excuse of investigating the demon cultivators. The other two families had no choice but to watch the Immortal Palace, ensuring that the City Lord\'s mansion did not secretly send anyone inside.

"Our greatest hope still lies with Chong’er."

Meng Kui had immense confidence in Meng Chong.

Especially recently, Meng Chong had successfully broken through, taking his Wild Sprint Thunderclap technique to a whole new level, making tremendous progress.

"Chong’er has exceptional aptitude and strong fate. Any pressure only makes him stronger. In a fair competition, who can surpass him?"

The pillar of light gradually dissipated, and the Lava Immortal Palace returned to calm.

Meng Kui snorted with satisfaction.

At the same time.

Another teleportation circle appeared before Ning Zhuo.

From the circle, a mechanical monkey slowly floated down.

"So, it’s finished this quickly?"

Ning Zhuo was pleasantly surprised and stepped forward to inspect it.

Seeming to hear his footsteps, the mechanical monkey opened its eyes and slowly raised its head.

It looked at Ning Zhuo, its pupils glowing with a blood-red light, exuding an awe-inspiring presence.

Ning Zhuo slowed his steps.

At this moment, Yuan Dasheng was reborn!
