Self-Destructing Puppets

For Fang Yu, refining puppets was no longer difficult at all. If he wished, he could produce a whole pile of puppets at any time, because he could use the Great Puppet Technique.

However, doing so required a great deal of materials, as well as the corpses of Dou King and Dou Spirit-level experts. The puppets refined that way would not increase his strength by much and would instead be an enormous waste. Therefore, Fang Yu chose another method to refine powerful puppets. Although it required more materials, it could reduce some unnecessary losses.

This was nothing to Fang Yu. Pisces soon taught the others how to refine inferior puppets, but unfortunately, no one managed to learn it—especially not in such a short time. Fang Yu was greatly disappointed and wasted quite a few materials, though at least something had been left behind.

Soon, during the time they spent gathering intelligence, Fang Yu had refined as many as five Phoenix-tier puppets and more than ten Dou King-tier puppets. As for Dou Spirit-tier puppets, he had not refined a single one, mainly because there was no need.

Because if he wanted experts of that level, as long as he had enough pills, he could produce a whole group of them at any time. Of course, the price would be those experts' lifespans. Their remaining lifespan could be reduced from three years to five years, but as long as they broke through to Dou King within those five years, there would naturally be no problem. Yet for most Dou Spirit experts, this was an unattainable dream, because advancing to Dou King was a watershed. As long as one became a Dou King expert, they could barely be considered a powerhouse anywhere on the Dou Qi Continent.

Thus, this watershed was no small
