After reading the information about the Blood Amber Spirit Gu, Qin Fei fell into deep thought.

After a while, he flipped his wrist, and a jade box appeared.

The box contained the Gu worm he had obtained from the sacrificial statue.

Its color is like white wax, and it is crystal clear.

He felt that this insect was very similar to the Blood Amber Spirit Gu on the Curious Gu Ranking, but he was not sure yet.

"I need to find some time to feed it some Essence Blood and try it out. If it really turns into a blood-amber color, then I've truly struck gold."

Since this ranking list is called the Northern Plains Strange Gu Rankings, it must have some merit.

The Blood Amber Spirit Gu ranks third, demonstrating its rarity.

After collecting the Gu worms, Qin Fei then examined the cultivation method of the Blood Amber Spirit Gu.

The result left him both amused and exasperated. This Gu was extremely simple and brutal; as long as there was enough Essence Blood, it could keep growing.

This may be why it ranks third, but it is extremely difficult to cultivate.

Essence Blood is not ordinary blood, but the highly condensed life essence of a cultivator's body, consisting of essence, qi, and spirit.

A cultivator, after a lifetime of practice, has very little Essence Blood left in their body, which can be drained in just a few secret techniques.

The difficulty of the Gu worms feeding on this is self-evident.

However, cultivating Blood Amber Spirit Gu also has many benefits.

Most importantly, when a spirit gu parasitizes another person's body, it will feed back to its owner.

As for how to become its master, the Jade Slip also contains detailed records, which involve a Blood Pact Secret Technique.

Upon seeing this, Qin Fei suddenly recalled the sacrificial ritual arranged by the Blood Gu Rogue Person.

Could it be that the Blood Amber Spirit Gu is to be made to recognize a master?

After reading the entire secret technique, he suddenly realized what was going on.

The most crucial element in performing the Blood Pact Secret Technique is the Essence Blood of a virgin boy and girl.

However, this is not irreplaceable; the Essence Blood of a young Demon Beast can also be used.

Upon seeing this, Qin Fei immediately thought of the Beast Taming Sect.

He hasn't been there since becoming a guest elder of the Beast Taming Sect.

I need to make time to go there and bring back the disciple who trained the Purple Flame Deer, and also ask for some Demon Beast Essence Blood to see if this Gu worm is indeed the Blood Amber Spirit Gu.

Having finalized his plans, Qin Fei then turned his attention to the second Storage Bag.

As a male favorite of the Ghost Mother, the Daoist priest possessed significantly more Spirit Stone than the Blood Gu Rogue Person.

At a glance, there were at least seven or eight hundred Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.

In this way, the rent for the cave abode will not be a problem for several years.

However, the other treasures were somewhat disappointing.

Although there was a wide variety of spiritual weapons, Law Artifact, talismans, and elixirs, their grades were not very high.

To Qin Fei's surprise, his Storage Bag contained several bookshelves filled with all sorts of books.

I randomly picked a few books to look at, and most of them were geographical records of mountains and rivers and travelogues by monks.

The contents recorded inside were quite interesting, which broadened Qin Fei's horizons.

He came from the small town of Shangyu Market, and although he was already Foundation Establishment cultivator, he knew that his knowledge was still far from sufficient.

When talking with other cultivators of the same realm, he was usually the one listening in.

These books will be a good supplement to his knowledge.

However, one bamboo slip caught his attention. When he opened it, its contents made his blood boil.

"The Tumbling Phoenix and Nurturing Luan Art"

The booklet contains illustrations of various poses, along with detailed descriptions.

It turns out to be a dual cultivation method, where both partners cultivate together, nourishing each other and enhancing their True Qi during intimate moments.

However, this technique is mainly for men, and its effect on women is much weaker.

After all, he was a male favorite of the Ghost Mother; perhaps the strange Daoist priest broke through to the Foundation Establishment using this Cultivation Method.

Qin Fei pondered for a moment, then put it away and took some useful pills, talismans, and other items.

After doing all this, he flipped his wrist, and two jade boxes appeared in his hand.

Inside the jade box were two paper figures, both of whom showed expressions of terror upon seeing Qin Fei.

Surprisingly, the paper figure with fangs has now grown a row of neat teeth again.

He clearly remembered that the Iron Guard had beaten him to a pulp that day.

Can these teeth regenerate?

Qin Fei was overjoyed; those fangs were incredibly hard and were rare materials for refining weapons.

The amount was too little; it wasn't even enough to make a single dagger.

If it could be regenerated, and accumulated several times, wouldn't it be possible to forge another flying sword to make up for the loss caused by the destruction of the Still Water Sword?

Qin Fei waved his hand, and the Iron Guard appeared before him. He then walked towards the fanged iron man.

The paper figure looked terrified, almost to the point of extreme fear.

Iron Guard ignored all of that and raised its fist to smash fiercely at its newly grown teeth.

The Heart Fire, witnessing this brutal scene, was terrified. It dared not meet Qin Fei's gaze, fearing it might attract his attention.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned, and Qin Fei's gaze still fell on it.

The paper effigy of the Heart Fire shuddered, and a pleading expression appeared on its face.

The paper doll was supposed to contain two vengeful ghosts, terrifying beings, yet it was terrified of Qin Fei, which was truly laughable.

Qin Fei approached the Heart Fire Paper Doll and said calmly:

"Use your flames on me again, I want to see."

The paper figure seemed to have heard something unbelievable and hesitated to make a move.

It only started doing so after Qin Fei emphasized it again.

A flame ignited in his soul. This time, Qin Fei did not extinguish it directly. Instead, he separated a wisp of his Divine Sense and wrapped it around the flame.

The moment they made contact, their Divine Sense was instantly dissolved, without even a chance to resist.

Qin Fei frowned secretly, recalling how the Purple Flame Deer had shown such longing for this Heart Fire that day.

However, this fire is so powerful that it is clearly not suitable for direct feeding.

After thinking for a while, Qin Fei had no clue.

He knows almost nothing about beast taming, so it seems he needs to visit the Beast Taming Sect as soon as possible.

With a single thought, the flame in his sea of consciousness was suddenly extinguished.

Qin Fei put away the two paper figures and then went to Iron Guard's side.

Before heading to the Beast Taming Sect, there was one more very important thing to do: to imbue the Iron Guard with spirit.

Second-tier puppets can only be imbued with spirit by cultivators or Demon Beast of the same realm.

To this end, Qin Fei specially used a secret technique to extract the soul of the Blood Gu Rogue Person.

According to the Creation Spirit-Bestowing Scripture, after being imbued with spirit, the puppet will grow flesh and blood, becoming lifelike, just like a normal living being. Even cultivators of a higher realm would find it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake.

Qin Fei took out a jade bottle, pointed with one hand, and a pale blue ball of light slowly flew out of the bottle, heading towards the core of the Iron Guard's Puppet Core.

As the ball of light merged into it, the Iron Guard began to tremble violently.

Inside his chest, a small, blood-red dot suddenly appeared.

The red dot grew larger and larger, eventually turning into a fleshy ball that started throbbing with a "bang, bang" sound.

Fine lines spread outwards, like countless blood vessels, connecting all parts of the Iron Guard's body.

Then flesh and blood began to grow, and the internal organs appeared one by one.

This was a long process, and even with Qin Fei's formidable strength, he gradually found himself unable to persevere.

Fortunately, we just harvested a large batch of Mid-Grade Spirit Stone, which will allow us to continue.

Two weeks later.

Suddenly, an astonishing pressure emanated from the cave abode, dark clouds filled the sky, and thunder roared.

Streaks of light pierced through the sky from the horizon.

"What happened? Could it be that some treasure has appeared in the world?"

"I don't know, it seems like someone has broken through a cultivation level, but it's different."

"Huh? Isn't this Fellow Daoist Qin's cave abode?"

Everyone was filled with surprise and doubt.

Inside the cave abode, a naked male body stood with his hands clasped in front of Qin Fei.

A lean physique, a resolute face, a chest rising and falling, and even his eyes shone with light.

This is no longer a puppet; it's clearly a living, breathing person!
