Immortality begins with inheriting the myriad arts of cultivation.

Chapter 385 Puppet Talent, Tier 3 Body Refinement

Inside the cave on the riverbank.

Li Ping looked at the two smiling women in front of him, but his mind was still on the grand auction a few days ago.

The most precious item in this grand auction is a Soul-Stabilizing Pill, which appeared last. This pill helps the condensation of Yin spirits and can increase the probability of forming a Nascent Soul by about 10%.

Generally speaking, spiritual items like these only appear at barter fairs where Nascent Soul cultivators exchange goods; they are impossible to buy with low-grade spirit stones.

This time, Lingxiao City specially offered a Soul-Stabilizing Pill as an auction item in order to boost popularity.

The reason why most of those late-stage Core Formation cultivators with impressive backgrounds appeared at the Lingxiao City Grand Auction was actually for this pill.

The final price of the Soul-Stabilizing Pill reached an astonishing 410,000 spirit stones!

Even Li Ping was secretly astonished by this price.

"Fellow Daoist Li?" Wei Yiling's soft voice startled Li Ping from his reverie.

He looked at Wei Yiling, who seemed to possess the True Phoenix Elixir within her body.

In terms of rarity, the True Phoenix Pill can increase the probability of Nascent Soul formation by 20% to 30%, far surpassing the Soul-Stabilizing Pill, which can only increase the probability by 10%.

The Soul-Stabilizing Pill can fetch 410,000 spirit stones, while the True Phoenix Pill is worth more than a million spirit stones.

No, no one would be foolish enough to sell this; it's truly priceless!

"This is mine, hehe..."

Thinking of the scene of those geniuses from major sects vying for the Soul-Stabilizing Pill, and then thinking of the True Phoenix Pill Essence that he was about to obtain, Li Ping couldn't help but hum softly to himself.

He looked at Wei Yiling, a smile appearing in his eyes: "It's nothing, Fellow Daoist Wei, I'll treat you and Fellow Daoist Feng right now!"

After learning the true value of Zhenfeng Danyuan, his service attitude unconsciously became even better.

After the treatment, urged by Wei Yiling, Feng Xishuang took out a life-sized cyan puppet from her storage bag and said apologetically, "Fellow Daoist Li, I have successfully created several low-level puppets in the past few years, so this year I started trying to create a first-level high-grade puppet, but I failed. Fellow Daoist Li, could you help me see where the problem lies?"

"A first-tier high-grade puppet?" Li Ping looked at Feng Xishuang with some surprise.

He had only passed on his third-tier puppetry skills to the two of them five years ago, yet Feng Xishuang was already able to create first-tier high-grade puppets.

Although Li Ping had already judged from her extremely fast pace of cultivating the "Myriad Spirits Divine Technique" that she possessed excellent puppetry talent, far surpassing his own, he still had a lot of talent.

But he didn't expect Feng Xishuang to be so talented. In less than five years, she had almost reached the first-class high-grade level in puppetry.

Glancing at the two expectant women, Li Ping didn't rush to look at the puppet Feng Xishuang had taken out. Instead, he smiled and said, "There's no time like the present. Fellow Daoist Feng encountered a problem in making the puppet. What about you, Fellow Daoist Wei? Why don't you also bring out your work, and I'll help you find the problem together?"

"Huh? Me?" Wei Yiling was a little flustered when she heard this, but she quickly calmed down and waved her hand dismissively: "I don't need to, you can just give Shuangmei some pointers."

Li Ping was somewhat puzzled by her reaction, but since Wei Yiling didn't want him to give her guidance, he wouldn't force her.

Therefore, after nodding, he immediately scanned the puppet beside him with his divine sense.

Upon examining it with his divine sense, Li Pingfang discovered that the puppet was more complete than he had imagined. However, the core for converting spiritual energy was flawed, preventing the conversion of spiritual energy into magical power.

Other aspects, such as energy circulation and mana output, are generally fine.

The author "Good Names Are Hard to Think Of" recommends reading "Immortality Begins with Inheriting the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation" using the "Renren Bookstore" APP. Download and install it.

He immediately gave Feng Xishuang some pointers on how to handle the issue of spiritual energy conversion. Feng Xishuang nodded repeatedly as she listened, and finally showed a look of sudden realization.

Finally, Li Ping smiled and said, "Go back and think about it a little more. You should have no problem with a first-grade high-quality puppet. You have a great talent for puppets. If you have any questions in the future, you can come and ask me for advice."

"Thank you for your guidance, Fellow Daoist Li. We'll take our leave now."

Feng Xishuang put away the cyan puppet and then bid farewell to Li Ping. Judging from her appearance, she seemed eager to return and repair the spiritual energy conversion core.

Li Ping nodded: "Go ahead."

Li Ping watched the two leave with satisfaction in his eyes.

Gaoji Daoist asked him to rebuild the Tianqiao Sect's lineage, but he didn't have the time or ability to do so.

Now it seems that since Feng Xishuang has an extremely high talent for puppetry, and judging from her appearance, she is very fond of studying puppetry, it is most appropriate to entrust this task to the two of them.

Then he thought of the fourth-order puppet-making method that Daoist Gaoji had promised him, which had yet to materialize, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "Old Gao, are you even capable of this?!"

After instructing Meng Wanjun not to disturb him, Li Ping returned to the training room.

I closed my eyes and sat quietly, circulating my qi throughout my body for a long time.

Li Ping opened his eyes, and two glints of light flashed in them.

Placed at the very center are the three rare spiritual materials that were only collected after arriving in the Great Zhou Dynasty: the "Supreme Yang Wood," the "Golden Dew," and the "Eight Treasures Spiritual Spring Water."

Li Ping murmured, "Golden Pupil of Illusion, I hope you won't disappoint me!"

If it weren't for the goal of maximizing the awakening of this divine ability, he could have already broken through to the third level of body refinement in the Western Wilderness, without having to spend so much time and energy traveling to the Great Zhou to search for materials.

With a flick of his hand, Li Ping summoned a pill-refining furnace in mid-air. He then threw the spiritual materials on the ground into the furnace one by one, following the order recorded in the blood-red armor plate, for refining.

With his skill as a third-level alchemist, doing such a job was naturally a piece of cake.

Several days later, the once dazzling array of spiritual materials had disappeared, and in front of Li Ping floated a ball of spiritual liquid the size of a human head with a pale golden surface, from which astonishing spiritual energy continuously emanated.

He gazed at the spiritual liquid before him, his eyes filled with solemnity: "Body Refinement Stage Three, let's begin!"

brush!

With a wave of his hand, a golden thread extended from the spiritual liquid and landed directly on Li Ping's brow. Then, centered on where the golden thread landed, a faint golden light spread out, expanding along his skin until it formed a thin golden film covering his entire body.

And this process is still ongoing, which is manifested in the outside world as this light golden film getting thicker and thicker.

Li Ping dared not be careless and immediately began to use the methods of the "Nine Tribulations True Spirit Holy Scripture" to refine the spiritual liquid on the surface of his body in order to break through to the third level of body refinement!

"ha!"

"call!"

"snort!"

……

A muffled thunderous sound resounded within his body, his muscles crackled and popped, his tissues were broken and reformed, and golden light began to shimmer within each bone...

As Li Ping's cultivation deepened, the spiritual energy within the cave fluctuated violently, with a massive amount of spiritual energy flowing into the training room before finally dissipating without a trace!

It was as if a savage beast was devouring everything in its path.
