He Ping gained a lot from the experiment. By testing the "heart", he mastered core-level information.

First, he found a way to control the heart and transplant the heart. By using this method, he could safely implant the "heart" into the body;

Secondly, He Ping also knew the secret of the Chongyang Palace, and knew that Chongyang Palace secretly worshiped a god named "God of Sacrificial Fire".

This is an unheard of god, which should be related to the beliefs of the Chongyang Palace throughout the ages. Very few outsiders know this secret.

"I was born with 'one body and two souls'. With the soul of my original body, I can implant this heart into my body. This heart derived from Undead Abomination, in addition to giving me the ability to regenerate my severed body and reorganize my flesh and blood, can also force my body to obtain a temporary immortal body under the influence of Three Yang Calamity's power."

Thinking about this, He Ping also felt very excited.

He remembered clearly that when he and Chixinzi teamed up to kill Sheng Qingzhi, Chixinzi revealed that Chongyang Palace's <Three Yang Calamity> would have a short-term immortality after completing the Dao.

This kind of immortality cannot be killed by ordinary methods. You must calculate the time carefully. You must kill it ten times in a row within half a cup of tea to cut off this immortality... Otherwise, no matter how hard you fight, you will not be able to prevent the opponent from resurrecting.

"In addition to Three Yang Calamity's power, I also thought of a way to deal with Wu Yousheng and Immortal Puppet Sect's backhand..."

Another reason why He Ping has been reluctant to Heart-Swapping Technique all along is that he is worried about Wu Yousheng's backhand. He is afraid that once Heart-Swapping Technique is made, he will be turned into a living puppet by Wu Yousheng's hidden methods.

"Three Yang Calamity power, no, this Undead Abomination's heart is filled with the power of 'God of Sacrificial Fire'. I really don't know the origin of the Chongyang Palace's god, but her The vast power cannot be ignored, Chongyang Palace is Innate Dao Sect, <Three Yang Calamity> is also the ninth-ranked disciple of Dao Zhengfa, and is far stronger than our Immortal Puppet Sect!"

If one day, Wu Yousheng plans to refine himself and turn himself into a living puppet, then he can use God of Sacrificial Fire's innate will to rise forever and assimilate all things to deal with Wu Yousheng.

"Even if that Wu Yousheng is a strong man who has surpassed the Dao level, I don't believe he can resist this God of Sacrificial Fire. If he really has this ability, then Immortal Puppet Sect has already surpassed Three Daoist Sects's cultivation sect."

He Ping is determined and plans to do a few more experiments. After confirming that they are correct, he will undergo Heart-Swapping Technique surgery to transform his body again.

Two days later, Qingjian Mountain Black Flag Stronghold's warehouse was transformed into a laboratory and operating room. During this period, many bandits from Qingjian Mountain Black Flag Stronghold were secretly sent here and never returned.

I don't know if there were too many dead people, but the secret room in the warehouse was filled with a very faint smell of blood, and there was also a strange coldness in the air.

He Ping After making other preparations, he sat on the operating table with his upper body naked.

"Reformation of the heart changes only later. I had to complete two surgeries at one time. One was to install Undead Abomination's heart, and the other was to integrate Mountain Demon's heart into my body. If something happens to Undead Abomination's heart, the other heart would be able to play a role and save my life."

He thought very carefully and basically took everything that should be considered into consideration.

"The next first step still needs the help of 'Nine-Death Substitute Witch Puppet'," He Ping, who was sitting on the stone bed, took out "Nine-Death Substitute Witch Puppet" from his arms and placed the little witch puppet on the equipment table next to the stone bed.

"The virtual soul is immortal, the third child has returned, the soul has fulfilled the oath, and wandered in all directions..." He recited the incantation, Hand Seals his left hand, and there was a lighted candle in his right hand.

"Hide my true soul, impart my form and my will, be transformed into one, and return to its roots!"

After reciting the incantation "Soul-Hiding and Spirit-Shifting Technique", He Ping bit the tip of his tongue, spit out a mouthful of blood, and sprayed it on the candle.

The flame of the candle was stimulated by the blood, and suddenly it burst into flames. The flame jumped to the ground, and the flame turned blue, and suddenly shrank into a ball, as if it turned into a glaze-colored fire bead.

He Ping flicked his index finger, and the fire ball was flicked onto "Nine-Death Substitute Witch Puppet". Fine runes appeared all over the puppet's body, and these engraved runes were flowing. At the same time, a smile appeared on the face of this witch puppet whose face was similar to He Ping. In the next second, the fire was sucked in, and he became ordinary again.

"It's done."

He Ping sent one of his souls into the witch puppet. This is Immortal Puppet Sect's soul-hiding spell. Immortal Puppet Sect's disciples only need to use this spell when Heart-Swapping Technique cooperates with "Nine-Death Substitute Witch Puppet", in a short period of time, your own flesh and blood will turn into a wooden clay sculpture, like a puppet. Next, by performing the Heart-Swapping Technique operation, you can save the pain caused by caesarean section and heart digging, and you don't have to worry about excessive blood loss, massive bleeding and other problems.

If a mortal had his heart dug out, he would die on the spot. After the Immortal Puppet Sect's soul-hiding spell was cast, it would be easy to disembowel the body and dig out the heart. As long as the heart is put back later, there is no danger of life. The only flaw of this spell is that after it is used like this, Nine-Death Substitute Witch Puppet will consume a life.

"Even if one life is lost, this witch puppet still has four chances to 'replace death'. Furthermore, as long as Undead Abomination's heart is integrated into my body, I can also gain Three Yang Calamity power, which is equivalent to having a different kind of immortality. No matter how you calculate it, this deal is worth it!"

He Ping was lying on the stone platform. He moved his two fingers slightly, and several Severed Ghost Hand flew over from the surroundings. These ghost hands were holding instruments such as scalpels, floating in the air one after another.

The chief surgeon, Severed Ghost Hand, held a translucent fishbone-like knife with five wooden fingers.

"Let's get started!"

He whispered to himself.

There are no outsiders in this secret room, Severed Ghost Hand are all puppets and prosthetics, so naturally he said this to himself.

He Ping controlled Severed Ghost Hand, who was hanging in the air, and cut open his chest with a scalpel. Not a drop of blood flowed out after this cut, and his skin texture showed extremely dull wood grain.

"No more pain?"

He Ping felt no pain at all even after being cut into a long wound. The blade applied to him was like piercing another body, and the touch he received was like being separated by an invisible layer of skin. His perception was somewhere between waking and sleeping, which was very unreal.

"Very good, it seems you don't have to worry anymore!"

This also made him feel relieved. With this kind of protection, the scalpel held by Severed Ghost Hand acted boldly. As a result, it didn't take long to find his heart.

Through a bronze mirror set up on the stone bed, He Ping could see his own chest. He controlled the invisible silk thread and the scalpel to cut out his own heart.

Then, he controlled several other puppet prostheses and took out a heart from the jar next to it. This was the heart of Undead Abomination. Under the heart's skin flap, there was a bright fluorescent light. In addition, steam was emitting by itself, which looked extremely strange.

"Come on!"

He said indifferently, the puppet prosthetic machine completed the next work of Heart-Swapping Technique, and the heart transplantation of Undead Abomination was completed. This heart has an unusually strange vitality. Once integrated into the body, it will forcibly fuse with the flesh and blood, releasing endless vitality, and it can easily grow muscles and heal bones.

After completing the first Heart-Swapping Technique process, Severed Ghost Hand began to make subtle adjustments and transformations to the chest cavity.

This is also the Secret Method that only Immortal Puppet Sect people can master. This Secret Method can change the muscle structure and bones to change the volume, and add a second heart to the chest.

After the first heart of He Ping was taken out, it was replaced with the heart of Undead Abomination, located on the left side of the chest. This heart was temporarily silent. The moment the "installation" was completed, it was connected to the second soul in his consciousness.

The original soul is silent and ignorant, and the huge information contained in Undead Abomination pours in, but it cannot infect this unconscious soul. The two sides have reached a wonderful balance.

The second modified Mountain Demon heart is located on the right side. This heart can increase the volume of blood in the body and the blood supply capacity of the heart, which is equivalent to a spare heart.

Mountain Demon, who has a lifespan of three hundred years, can barely be considered a "big demon". The powerful life potential in his heart is injected into his body along with the blood. After integrating into his body, he feels waves of surging life force in his body, like the vigorous vitality of the Yangtze River.

Finally, the reconstruction surgery was completed. The wound that opened the chest was sutured with catgut, tightly wrapped with medical cloth, and bandaged properly. He Ping slowly climbed up from the operating stone table.

Although he had undergone the transformation of having his chest removed and his heart removed, he did not feel much weak. Instead, because of the strong vitality in his body, he felt that his body was like an active volcano that was about to erupt at any time.
