Slay Demons and Eliminate Fiends Mission, Golden Core Level Puppet Avatar
Lu Qing quietly led Xiao Yan and the others back to the Holy Mountain.
He held extremely high authority on the Holy Mountain, and no one except the three Holy Lords was qualified to request an audience with him.
So whether he went out or returned, almost no one knew, and it did not cause any ripples.
However, it was only the second day after Lu Qing returned.
The disciples of the Holy Mountain discovered that a new type of talisman had appeared on the treasure exchange catalog in the Merit Hall.
It is called the "Fiend Suppression Talisman".
Its main power lies in the power of talismans, which has a great restraining effect on Evil Demon cultivators and can easily suppress and kill Demonic Cultivator.
Meanwhile, a new long-term quest, "Slaying Demons and Eliminating Evil," has appeared in the Mission Hall.
That is, for every Evil Demon cultivator captured and killed by a disciple of the Holy Mountain, the merit reward will be doubled.
The moment this mission was announced, all the disciples of the Holy Mountain became excited.
It's important to know that merit points are extremely important on the Holy Mountain.
Not only can you exchange for various treasures and cultivation techniques, but if you have enough merit points, you can even ask Elder to guide your cultivation.
Now that they see that the merit points earned from this "Slay Demons and Eliminate Evil" quest are doubled, all the disciples of the Holy Mountain are filled with excitement.
Immediately, countless disciples of the Holy Mountain accepted the mission and went down the mountain to slay demons and monsters.
Even some Elder couldn't resist the temptation and secretly accepted missions to go out.
After all, the treasures and cultivation techniques in the Merit Hall are something that even they are very envious of.
In this way, Evil Demon cultivators in the world will be in big trouble.
Within just a few months, they were hunted down by the disciples of the Holy Mountain and fled in terror, with most of them killed or wounded.
Only a few skilled at hiding managed to escape to more remote and desolate areas, thus surviving by sheer luck.
As a result, Evil Demon cultivators almost disappeared from the world in a short period of time.
The Holy Mountain's reputation soared, inspiring even greater awe in numerous sects.
Lu Qing, who stirred up this storm, didn't seem to care much about what was happening outside.
He anticipated this outcome the moment he issued the task.
Those scoundrels who cultivate the Evil Demon path are not yet powerful enough to withstand the crushing force of the Holy Mountain.
So after posting the task, he didn't pay much attention to it.
Because he has more important things to do.
Holy Mountain Cave Abode, Lu Qing was looking intently at the swollen Li Fire Cauldron in front of him.
He formed various hand seals, creating a series of magical seals and restrictions that fell into a certain artifact being refined inside the cauldron.
As the final restriction was applied, the Li Fire Cauldron suddenly shone brightly, rapidly absorbing the spiritual energy within the cave to power the transformation of the artifact within.
A massive amount of spiritual energy surged wildly, constantly being absorbed by the artifact.
After a few breaths, it had already far exceeded the limit that a Foundation Establishment Stage could absorb.
Fortunately, the Holy Mountain is the center of the Central Province, and its spiritual energy is already incredibly rich.
Even if dozens of the Golden Core Realm were to cultivate here at the same time, it would be perfectly adequate to supply them.
Therefore, although Lu Qing's actions caused quite a stir, their impact on the Holy Mountain was not significant.
After absorbing the spiritual energy in the cave for a full quarter of an hour, the Li Fire Cauldron finally stopped absorbing it.
The object inside the cauldron has finally completed its transformation.
Lu Qing made a hand Magic Art, and a stream of light flew out of the cauldron and landed in front of him.
It was a humanoid Puppet Avatar with a similar build to him and indistinct facial features.
"Finally, it's been successfully refined."
Lu Qing looked at the Puppet Avatar in front of him, smiled, and then activated his Supernatural Ability.
A few breaths later, a purple light of Supernatural Ability emerged from the Puppet Avatar, and several pieces of text floated out.
[Golden Core Level Puppet Avatar: A powerful Puppet Avatar crafted from numerous precious materials.]
This Puppet Avatar possesses extraordinary power, having already reached the Golden Core Realm realm.
This Puppet Avatar possesses Five Elements, allowing it to utilize Five Elements power.
This Puppet Avatar is a growth-type puppet; its power can be increased through training.
"Not bad, you've reached the Golden Core Level."
When Lu Qing finished reading the information floating on the Puppet Avatar, he was even more satisfied.
As expected, he spent a lot of merit points to exchange for many precious materials in the treasure vault of the Holy Mountain.
It took several more months to finally create the Puppet Avatar.
Its power alone has already reached the level of the Golden Core Realm.
After admiring it for a while, Lu Qing had a thought, and a ball of Divine Soul Power flew out from the acupoint between his eyebrows and landed on the forehead of the Puppet Avatar.
It was the Divine Soul Seed that he had cultivated over the years using the Soul Division Technique.
After the Divine Soul Seed entered the Puppet Avatar and was refined,
The Puppet Avatar began to change, its form becoming identical to Lu Qing's.
The previously blurry face became clear and looked exactly like him.
Immediately afterwards, the Puppet Avatar's eyes opened, a spiritual light flashing within them, and it gazed back at Lu Qing's true form.
"What a wonderful feeling."
As Lu Qing sensed all of this, a strange expression appeared on his face.
At that moment, he felt as if he had two selves, facing each other face to face, which was quite novel to him.
However, he was of a high level and quickly adapted.
Once a cultivator's cultivation reaches a certain level, they will be able to multitask.
Although the Soul Division Technique is wondrous, it is actually quite similar to this.
Both consciousnesses originate from the same source, but each has a different perspective.
"The power of the Dharma Body should currently be somewhat stronger than that of the three Holy Lords."
Lu Qing estimated the power of the Puppet Avatar and came to a conclusion.
Over the years, the three benefactors would come to him from time to time to ask for his advice, so he was quite familiar with their abilities.
The Puppet Avatar he created lacked Mana Golden Core, Divine Soul Rune, and various innate Divine Ability and magical treasures.
The main source of his power is a "False Core" that he condensed by referencing his own Mana Golden Core.
Therefore, compared to his original form, he is naturally far inferior.
However, due to his higher cultivation level, the strength he could unleash was still considerably greater than that of the three Holy Lords.
Lu Qing estimated that with his current level of cultivation and the power of his Dharma Body, he should be able to easily defeat three Holy Lords by himself.
Most importantly, the Puppet Avatar he created is capable of growth.
The "False Core" within the body, though not tempered by Heavenly Tribulation, cannot be considered a true Golden Core.
However, it can also continuously enhance its power by absorbing spiritual energy, refining and compressing Spiritual Power.
If this compression continues, it's not impossible for him to eventually reach the limit of the Golden Core stage.
"Soul Shaping Mud is indeed amazing. It is indeed a material that the Puppet Sect has been dreaming of. It was worth spending so many merit points."
The reason this Puppet Avatar possesses growth potential is due to the existence of Soul Shaping Mud.
The Puppet Sect listed it as one of the best main materials for crafting puppets, and there was indeed a reason for that.
After familiarizing himself with the Puppet Avatar, Lu Qing left it in the quiet room to cultivate on its own, while he went out.
Since bringing Xiao Yan and the others to the Holy Mountain, he has divided up his cave dwelling into several quiet cultivation rooms for them to use for cultivation.
After leaving the meditation room, seeing that Xiao Yan and the others were still in seclusion, Lu Qing did not disturb them. He left the cave on his own, intending to take a walk on the Holy Mountain to clear his mind.
As Lu Qing walked slowly, he admired the scenery around him.
This is the summit of the Holy Mountain, with extremely strong pressure that only Golden Core Realm experts can withstand.
Apart from the three Holy Lords who occasionally come here, almost no one else appears.
Lu Qing doesn't like seeing outsiders, so he usually comes here to relax and unwind.
However, this time, Lu Qing had only been walking for a short while when he felt something and looked up at the front of him.
A streak of light flew in from the distant sky and finally came to rest in front of the Holy Mountain, revealing a graceful figure.
At the same time, a visiting card in his hand emitted a faint light and flew into the Holy Mountain.
"This aura... Has she finally broken through?"
Sensing a familiar aura emanating from the newcomer, Lu Qing seemed to be deep in thought.
The arrival of the Golden Core Realm could not escape the notice of the three Holy Lords.
Moreover, the other party also presented a visiting card.
Soon, the First Holy Master's gentle voice echoed from the mountains.
"I am truly ashamed that I have failed to properly welcome the Palace Master."
Then a rainbow bridge flew out from the mountain and landed in front of the figure that was suspended in mid-air.
"I am ashamed that Ling Shuang has dared to visit me."
The figure in mid-air gracefully bowed before stepping onto the rainbow bridge and flying into the mountains.
Indeed, the Golden Core Realm who has come to visit is none other than Han Lingbai, the Palace Master of the Cold Water Palace.
However, after ten years apart, when they met again, he was already Golden Core Realm cultivator.
Watching Han Lingbai enter the mountain, Lu Qing thought for a moment and then slowly walked down the mountain as well.
