Volume 1: The Decline of the Yue Family Chapter 65: Golden Immortal Puppet Two Watches

  In a hidden chamber of the Sima family, Yue Cheng casually set up a seal and sat cross-legged on a stone bed inside. In three months, it would be the day of the Alchemist Grand Competition, and Yue Cheng also wanted to make some preparations. Actually, what was most important was that Yue Cheng wanted to refine some elixirs and other things for himself during these three months.

  After sitting cross-legged, Yue Cheng took out the Wan Shou furnace from his body and immediately took out a large pile of fragmented spiritual medicine and many refining materials. These were all things that Yue Cheng had borrowed under the pretext of preparing for the Alchemy Master Competition, and Sima Changping quickly helped Yue Cheng prepare them properly. In fact, these were just things that Yue Cheng needed himself, and with the help of the Sima family in preparing these things, it was much easier than finding them on his own.

  Finally, Yue Cheng took out a few jade slips. These were very precious things that Sima Changping had specially handed over to Yue Cheng. The contents of these jade slips were all fourth-grade elixir recipes, and according to Sima Changping, one of them was even close to a fifth-grade elixir recipe. From the bottom of his heart, Sima Changping had never doubted Yue Cheng and Sima Yanran, treating Yue Cheng as his future son-in-law, which is why he was so generous. It's worth knowing that a fourth-grade elixir recipe is extremely valuable. With the power of the Yue family, one fourth-grade elixir recipe would be worth half of the entire Yue family estate. The Sima family's power was stronger than the Yue family's, but they didn't have many fourth-grade elixir recipes either. If Sima Changping knew that Yue Cheng was just a fake fiancé invited by Sima Yanran, he might not have been so generous.

  Yue Cheng merged all the jade slips into his mind and took a look, immediately knowing the refining method and steps of these elixirs. With Yue Cheng's cultivation in his previous life in Huaxia, any elixir with a recipe could be refined by him, but due to his own cultivation reasons, Yue Cheng's current strength was not enough to refine high-grade elixirs.

  But all of this was just a matter of time, in just a few short years, Yue Cheng had cultivated to the level of opening his spiritual aperture, such speed would be considered super freakish if it were known by others in Huaxia, others might not even have such fast cultivation speed in ten years.

  After a moment, Yue Cheng rummaged through the medicinal materials and other items in front of him, put away some things that were not needed for the time being, took a deep breath, and decided to start refining the puppet he had always wanted to refine.

  This time, he offended the Liang family. Although it is said that in the Sima family, he doesn't have to worry about the Liang family being unfavorable to him, Yue Cheng also wouldn't be foolish enough to believe that the Liang family would easily let him off. When he leaves the Sima family, the Liang family will definitely be unfavorable to him, so it's still more important to have a few trump cards by his side.

  Yue Cheng planned to refine a puppet called 'Golden Immortal Puppet', which was a very powerful treasure in his own cultivation of the Hunyuan True Classic. However, Yue Cheng also knew that with his current cultivation strength, the Golden Immortal Puppet he refined might only be able to withstand the attacks of nine-star and ten-star Douling. But this was enough, because this Golden Immortal Puppet was not an ordinary puppet, it could cultivate like a human and slowly upgrade.

  Yue Cheng thought to himself, if he had refined the Golden Immortal Puppet earlier in his past life, perhaps he wouldn't have been destroyed by the heavenly thunder during the sixth tribulation. One of the Golden Immortal Puppet's abilities was that it could absorb any lightning from the heavens and earth, transforming it into its own power, and also use the absorbed lightning to upgrade itself.

  Jinxian puppet is divided into five realms: human puppet, ghost puppet, demon puppet, immortal puppet, and finally Jinxian puppet. If it evolves to the level of Jinxian puppet, even a super master below the third level of Tribulation Period can't do anything about it.

  After making all the preparations, Yue Cheng took out the piece of Wan Nian Xuan Gang that he had obtained from Sima Yanran. Originally, Yue Cheng only planned to refine one or two Golden Immortal Puppets, but he didn't expect that Wan Nian Xuan Gang would be so worthless on the Xuan Tian Continent. With such a large piece of Wan Nian Xuan Gang, Yue Cheng changed his mind and decided to refine five Golden Immortal Puppets instead. Once all five puppets reached the final stage of Golden Immortal Puppetry, it would be an earth-shattering sight. It would be equivalent to having five super powerful bodyguards at his side, making him invincible even in the face of a sixth tribulation.

  After punching out a handprint, two strands of Supreme True Fire converged from Yue Cheng's hands and shot into the Beastly Furnace in front of him. With the low hum of the beasts' growls resonating within the furnace, it quickly turned bright red inside, while its surface remained cool to the touch, without much change.

  As for the Wan Beast Furnace, Yue Cheng also liked it more and more. When his cultivation improved in the future, he didn't plan to replace this Wan Beast Furnace either. At that time, adding some materials and refining it again would make it no worse than the alchemy furnace he used before.

  Inside the secret room, under Yue Cheng's Supreme True Fire, it had already become a scorching heat. When Yue Cheng felt that it was almost enough, he freed one hand and threw a pile of crystal stones in front of him into the Beast Furnace. Along with the burning of the Supreme True Fire, not long after, the pile of crystal stones inside the Beast Furnace began to show signs of melting.

  If someone saw that Yue Cheng could actually refine the crystal stone, they would be shocked beyond recognition. The crystal stone is one of the hardest things on the Xuantian Continent, and ordinary alchemists can't even refine it a bit. In fact, this is mainly due to the relationship with fire. Yue Cheng uses the Supreme True Fire, which is only slightly inferior to the strongest Three Flavors True Fire in Huaxia. If Yue Cheng's cultivation were to recover to its original peak state, the Supreme True Fire he emits would be almost indistinguishable from the Three Flavors True Fire.

  On the Xuantian Continent, crystal stones were not particularly rare or precious, but to Yue Cheng, they were treasures. Seven days later, a large pile of crystal stones had been fully refined by Yue Cheng. Immediately after, he stuffed an Original Restoration Pill into his mouth and then proceeded to refine other materials such as Thousand-Year Yin Soil and Black Magic Bones in the Ten-Thousand Beast Furnace. Another seven days passed, and Yue Cheng's complexion turned somewhat pale.

  This situation was already within Yuchen's expectations, and he was very satisfied that his cultivation could support half a month of consumption. After putting another Rejuvenation Pill into his mouth, Yuchen rested for a moment and also took the opportunity to adjust the true energy inside him. He found that after this half-month of refining the Golden Immortal Puppet material, his cultivation seemed to have made some progress again, which made Yuchen's heart joyful beyond measure.

  Next, only the Ten Thousand Year Xuan Gang had not been refined. After Yu Cheng calmed down, he threw a large piece of Ten Thousand Year Xuan Gang into the Wan Shou furnace. Two strands of scorching hot Supreme True Fire continuously enveloped and burned the Ten Thousand Year Xuan Gang.

  Just as Yue Cheng was in seclusion, the atmosphere on Zuo Xing Island had become increasingly lively. Batch after batch of alchemists began to arrive on the island, and some major powers surrounding Zuo Xing Island started to extend olive branches to some alchemists. Every Alchemist Grand Competition was an opportunity for these major powers to absorb fresh blood into their ranks, and they would not let it slip by.

  However, some truly talented alchemists had already been targeted by some superpowers and were invited to join them as soon as they arrived on the Left Star Island. This year's Alchemist Grand Prix was different from previous years, as the Sima family did not actively recruit alchemists everywhere. Although the recruited alchemists had excellent talents, they were all at the peak of three-star alchemy.

  Now that the Sima family has a fourth-grade alchemist son-in-law, Sima Changping will definitely not be foolish enough to go and poach people from other forces at a high price.

  Among the young alchemists who entered the Left Star Island this time, there are two people whose names have been circulating recently. One is called Liu Liyang and the other is Zhao Qingsong. These two are also fourth-grade alchemists and were immediately pulled into Qinghai Gate and Xue Shaomen as soon as they entered the Left Star Island.

  Of course, Yue Cheng's name also spread all over Zuo Xing Island. It is said that Yue Cheng is a student of Dou Qi Academy and represents the Sima family in the competition because he is Sima Yanran's fiancé, which is also in line with the rules of the tournament.

  It's said that Yue Cheng had once defeated Liang Yu of the Liang family in a battle of spiritual energy, so everyone began to pay attention to this suddenly appearing Yue Cheng. However, no one had ever seen Yue Cheng before, because he had never left the Sima family's gate. Some young people started to admire and envy Yue Cheng, mainly because of Sima Yanran's reason. Sima Yanran was a famous figure on Zuoxing Island, with a beautiful face and figure, and she was also the only daughter of the Sima family. Those young men who had always admired Sima Yanran couldn't help but think to themselves: why wasn't I the one who was Yue Cheng?

  So the popular candidates for this Alchemist Grand Prix fell on five people, namely Liang Yu of the Liang family, Zhao Qing Song of the Qinghai Gate, Liu Li Yang of the Blood Slaughter Gate, Du Mi Er of the Dan Gate, and Yue Cheng, son-in-law of the Sima family.

  It just so happened that these five people were representatives of the three gates and two families, the five major forces on the Left Star Island. All five were fourth-grade alchemists, which made one wonder who would win the championship in this Alchemist Grand Prix. The most popular candidate was undoubtedly Du Mier from the Dan Gate.

  For those who don't know about Du Mier on the Left Star Island, there are probably only a few. Du Mier is considered one of the most talented people in Danmen in nearly a hundred years. Five years ago, when Du Mier was just 13 years old, he had already reached the peak of second-class alchemist in Danmen's internal assessment, which caused an uproar on the Left Star Island at that time. Two years ago, the people of Danmen announced that 16-year-old Du Mier had become a fourth-class alchemist, shocking everyone thoroughly.

  Two years have passed, and people are speculating about Du Mier's current cultivation level, wondering if she has reached the terrifying level of a fifth-grade alchemist. An 18-year-old fifth-grade alchemist would be hard to find even across the entire continent.

  A month later, Yue Cheng's secluded room was filled with a thick layer of cyan mist. In the center of the thickest part of the mist, a black-clad youth sat cross-legged, his hands holding two fiery flames that constantly tempered the five human-shaped puppets in front of him. The dense cyan mist emanated from these five puppets.

  Today, a good friend's book "Swallowing Hongmeng" is on the shelves, and I hope everyone will go and support it.

  Who says that cultivating top-notch skills requires more effort? Why should others have fun and flirt, while I'm stuck in closed-door training? What's so great about top-notch skills anyway? Is being a celestial fairy for 300 years really that impressive?

  Xiao Fan's cultivation method is simply against the heavens! No, what does heaven count for? This is a technique that can devour Hongmeng. Closed-door training in solitude? No! No! No! Xiao Fan still indulges in flirting with girls every day.

  Take a look at the woman next to him, and just be envious, don't drool. He's very protective of his women, not anyone can touch them, whoever touches them will be unlucky!

  My friend's "Urban Cultivation of Immortals" is also great.
