Chapter 314: Refining Zombie King Puppets
Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
While Luo Bing was conversing with the mysterious woman, Lin Ye walked along the path after he turned right out of the Heavenly Phoenix Pavilion.
Along the way, he was guided by a servant and quickly arrived outside the furnace hall.
Even though he was standing at the entrance, he could still feel the heat emanating from within.
“Esteemed guest, is there anything I can help you with?” The three-tailed fox lady guarding the furnace hall asked respectfully.
“Ineed a room with an Extreme Yang Flame furnace,” Lin Ye said.
‘The zombie king was of the Extreme Yin and was considered evil. If one wanted to refine its corpse into a top-grade puppet, one had to fuse it with the opposite Extreme Yang energy.
Although there was a possibility that an energy attribute conflict might occur during the refinement process and cause an explosion, with his mental cultivation and his full control of the puppet magic technique.
The probability of this happening was low.
“Extreme Yang Fire, this way please. Heaven Fire room 1 is still empty. Follow me.”
The three-tailed fox lady smiled and led Lin Ye in.
Along the way, Lin Ye saw many blacksmiths forging weapons in the Earth Fire rooms. The rhythmic sound of forging could be heard continuously.
Crossing the Earth Fire Zone was the Heaven Fire Zone.
‘The temperature here was clearly higher. The heatwave in the air was dozens of degrees higher than room temperature.
‘The little fox lady leading the way had a flushed face and was sweating profusely.
“Alright, you can go now. Give me your waist token and I’ll go in myself.” Lin Ye saw that her expression was ugly and took the initiative to speak.
“Thank you, esteemed guest. There are instructions on how to use the Heaven Fire room inside. You will understand after reading them.” Three-tailed Fox Lady looked as if she had been pardoned from a crime and shed tears of gratitude.
“Go.” Lin Ye took the waist token from the fox lady and quickened his pace as he walked towards the deepest room, Heaven Fire Room 1.
With his current cultivation, he was indifferent towards the temperature.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of room 1.
Lin Ye took out his waist token and swiped it in front of the room.
‘Whoosh—
Lights and shadows flashed in the void. The invisible restriction disappeared and the door opened automatically.
The space inside was not large and was about 50 square meters. The interior was simple and crude. Other than a three-meter-tall furnace placed in the middle, there was nothing else.
A raging fire was burning in the furnace. The temperature was high.
‘Through the gaps of the furnace, one could vaguely see some flames rising.
Terrifying fire energy even produced a three-colored flame halo around the furnace.
“Is this the power of the heavenly fire?”
Lin Ye narrowed his eyes and felt a little shocked.
Currently, his body had undergone the enhancement of 100,000 Awakening Chains. Its strength was several times that of his peers.
If not for the lack of corresponding Body Strengthening Pills or natural treasures to nourish the body, he would have advanced to the peak of Class 9 long ago!
But even so, seeing the terrifying heavenly fire in the furnace, he instinctively felt fear.
He felt that as long as he fell into it, he would probably be burned to death within a few minutes.
“Looks like my physique is still greatly different from the zombie king.”
Lin Ye sighed and followed the description stated in the Puppet Demon Technique.
The refinement method of the zombie king puppet required Extreme Yang flames. Among them, the Heavenly Fire had the best effect.
In other words, the zombie king’s body could definitely withstand the heavenly fire.
Otherwise, it would probably be burned to ashes by the flames of the Heavenly Fire before he could even condense the puppet runes.
“Let’s begin.”
Lin Ye looked at the boiling flames and the manual outside the furnace. Then, he formed a seal.
Bang!
The top of the furnace opened and fire particles shot out. The temperature in the air soared.
“Gol”
Lin Ye hurriedly threw the two zombie king corpses hidden in his space ring into it.
Swoosh—.
‘As soon as the corpse entered, it was as if ice water had been poured into hot oil. Cracking sounds rang out continuously.
At the same time, the blood light on the surface of the two zombie kings boiled and a large amount of blood-colored fog spread out. The entire corpse seemed to have been condensed and its size shrunk by a quarter, becoming about the size of a normal person.
“Impressive. I wonder how they cultivated such a body. If I can analyze the zombie king’s body tempering technique, I might even obtain a top-notch body tempering technique.”
Lin Ye’s eyes were burning with desire, but he had no other thoughts at this moment. He was fully focused on the corpse.
‘When the cold blood in his body evaporated, he tapped his glabella and a half-meter tall shadow appeared in his mind. He quickly formed hand seals.
His body and mind worked at the same time.
Every few minutes, a rune that was emitting a strange glow would condense in his palm.
Under Lin Ye’s control, it tore through the air and fused into the two zombie kings.
The runes entered his body and spread around the zombie king’s corpse like a spider web.
With every thread that entered, his mind would establish a wonderful connection with the zombie king’s corpse.
This feeling was similar to his avatars.
However, the puppet avatar felt more natural and he did not feel any discomfort when binding with them.
On the other hand, the zombie king corpses were different.
If the runes did not completely cover the corpse, there would be a problem with the compatibility.
It was very likely that if one gave the puppet an order, it would make strange movements and not listen to one.
Therefore, engraving runes was a long process. The more runes there were, the more compatible the puppets would be.
“900 runes… 2900… 5800…”
Lin Ye meticulously carved the runes. It was unknown how much time had passed.
Suddenly, the high-level avatar puppet’s heart trembled and it let out an extremely comfortable moan, almost making him waste all his previous efforts.
If it was more serious, it might have caused him to make the furnace explode. This was not a joke.
‘The two energy substances inside represented the fusion of Extreme Yang and Extreme Yin.
The slightest mistake would result in a backlash of energy.
“F*ck!”
Lin Ye cursed under his breath.
The information sent back by his thoughts made his heart burn.
It seemed like his main body was doing something indescribable.
So fast?
He glanced at the time from the corner of his eye. Ten hours had passed.
Alright, at this time, it was probably nighttime on the surface.
Ina few hours, it would be the ninth day.
After such a long time, Xiao Nuan and Xiao Bing should have long returned to the Lin Clan.
It was only natural for something to happen to them.
But
His main body was having a good time, but his avatar had to suffer.
His mind was inexplicably affected, and he still had to persist in refining the zombie king puppet in the furnace.
But what could he do?
Refining the zombie king puppets was a one-time deal.
If he cut it off now, it would be useless.
Therefore, no matter how uncomfortable he felt, he could only hold it in and continue carving the runes in pain and joy.
Another four hours passed and it was already late at night outside.
‘Whoosh—
Suddenly, the light in the furnace shone brightly. Thousands of puppet runes densely covered the two zombie kings’ corpses. Almost every skin and cell were tightly connected by the puppet runes. With a thought, he could easily control them and give orders.
“F*ck, it wasn’t easy. I withstood the pressure and finally completed the refinement. No, I’m still short of the last step.”
Lin Ye wiped the sweat off his forehead. He did not connect all the puppet runes. Instead, he grabbed the air and kept the two half-completed zombie king puppets into his space ring.
He turned around and hurriedly flew towards the teleportation array.
