Mysteries of Immortal Puppet Master - Chapter 1021 - 372: Cultivation of Three Together (Part 2)
Chapter 1021: Chapter 372: Cultivation of Three Together (Part 2)
The key is that when Ning Zhuo chose this cave mansion, the mechanical ring did not react.
Cave mansions of this level usually cater to rich Foundation Establishment cultivators. Within the Myriad Images Sect, there are many.
Unless Ning Zhuo was particularly unlucky and chose a special one out of thousands, why would anyone specifically try to harm him?
But if you really want to talk about luck, Ning Zhuo isn’t lacking in that area either.
After the White Paper Immortal City, he definitely gained Yangtian’s favor, so his luck shouldn’t be bad. However, at the main mountain gate of the Myriad Images Sect, this luck hasn’t visibly manifested. Any superpower has exclusive treasures that stabilize their lifespan.
With all this, Ning Zhuo is almost certain that the Bluestone Cave Mansion is safe.
After secretly exchanging with Sun Lingtong, he pulled out the Snow Fairy Hui in the martial arts array.
He only used the Life Hanging Thread to connect secretly to the mechanical puppet, then hid his form and controlled a large number of mechanical beasts to besiege the Snow Fairy Hui.
The Snow Fairy Hui, caught in the siege, fought back on her own, tearing each wave of mechanical beasts to pieces.
In every battle, Ning Zhuo deliberately left gaps to allow the Snow Fairy Hui to rest.
After all, with spiritual nature as the main focus, controlling the puppet also consumes energy.
Every time the Snow Fairy Hui won, she would slightly raise her head, standing proud on the spot.
Through the Life Hanging Thread, Ning Zhuo could clearly feel her spiritual nature’s emotions naturally expressing each time, making his perception of the Snow Fairy Hui increasingly clear.
“I guess this is the answer.”
“The character of the Snow Fairy Hui is—pride.”
“As long as I continue to satisfy this point, I can express her character, allowing her to pass through the Spirit Movement phase more quickly.”
Unfortunately, the good times don’t last.
The number of victories for the Snow Fairy Hui gradually increased, but the sense of pride after each battle diminished.
Even though Ning Zhuo intentionally increased the difficulty, such as increasing the number of ordinary mechanical beasts, enhancing his control over them, the proud emotions expressed by the Snow Fairy Hui from victories noticeably decreased.
When the benefits decreased to a certain extent, Ning Zhuo decisively stopped.
“Doing the same thing brings less joy when repeated. For ordinary people, too many times can lead to numbness.”
“Then let’s do something else.”
Ning Zhuo, well-acquainted with Ning Xiaohui, naturally thought of talisman making.
When alive, Ning Xiaohui was quite skilled at talisman making.
Ning Zhuo called Qing Chi into the martial arts chamber.
This time he appeared, arranging Qing Chi and the Snow Fairy Hui to sit cross-legged in front of him.
Qing Chi first curiously observed the mechanical puppet, marveling at her beauty, then his gaze stuck to Ning Zhuo. Even with amnesia, he showed strong attachment.
Qing Chi always enthusiastically responded to Ning Zhuo’s calls.
Ning Zhuo said, “I called you both here this time to teach you the most basic talisman making. Watch closely!”
After speaking, Ning Zhuo demonstrated in person, creating a Featherweight Talisman.
The talisman’s effect is to lighten the target’s weight. If a mortal attaches it and activates the talisman, they can walk on snow without a trace, fly swiftly over grass, and become an expert in Qinggong in an instant.
After demonstrating once, Ning Zhuo let Qing Chi and the Snow Fairy Hui try to make it.
Qing Chi showed an embarrassed look; her gaze had unintentionally focused on Ning Zhuo’s face earlier, so she hadn’t clearly seen how to make the talisman.
It was the Snow Fairy Hui, whose spiritual nature indeed originated from Ning Xiaohui, who was deeply captivated by Ning Zhuo’s talisman-making, staring at his movements, motionless and fully concentrated.
Ning Zhuo instructed the two women to start attempting talisman making.
The Snow Fairy Hui stayed still for quite a while before starting, her movements very rigid and mechanical, and she soon failed.
Failure in talisman making can lightly consume mana and spirit, or heavily cause backlash.
Fortunately, the Featherweight Talisman is too low-end and simple; the foundations of both the Snow Fairy Hui and Qing Chi are sufficient to withstand the negative consequences of numerous failures.
After failing, the Snow Fairy Hui continuously suffered the negative outcomes.
Qing Chi was the same, but her movements became faster and her progress accelerated, drawing closer to success.
Ning Zhuo was secretly surprised: “When I learned this talisman, my progress was slightly slower than hers. I didn’t expect she’d have such remarkable talent in this cultivation technique!”
Again he looked at the Snow Fairy Hui, and because of the Life Hanging Thread connecting them, Ning Zhuo could clearly sense the surge of anxiety in her.
Clearly, she was very interested in talisman making and realized Qing Chi’s rapid progress, unwilling to be surpassed.
Ning Zhuo then looked at Qing Chi and saw her frowning, with a serious expression.
Without the Life Hanging Thread, he could still guess Qing Chi’s thoughts—”I must give it my all! If even a mechanical puppet surpasses me, how disappointed would Young Master Ning Zhuo be in me?”
Ning Zhuo sighed inwardly and thought, “Sorry, Qing Chi.”
He then used the Life Hanging Thread to connect with Qing Chi, subtly influencing her fingers.
While Qing Chi was making the talisman, her actions suddenly distorted, drawing a rather exaggerated arc, and she immediately failed.
Frowning, Qing Chi assumed her micro-control was lacking and immediately restarted.
Thus, with Ning Zhuo’s bias assistance, the Snow Fairy Hui’s progress gradually surpassed Qing Chi’s, ultimately first crafting a successful talisman.
She raised her head even higher than when she defeated the Tiger Demon, the gesture more exaggerated!
Ning Zhuo also felt joy, perceiving through the Life Hanging Thread the Snow Fairy Hui’s proud emotions, expressed extremely intensely, the strongest ever.
“This path is correct!”
