Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Puppet Beast and Spirit

Consciousness—!

Translator: 549690339

“Good eye, my friend, it is indeed a first order lower grade magic tool.”

A magic tool as a meeting gift? How generous, I like you folks!

Noticing Luo Chen’s fondness for the puppet, he infused it with his Qi Power, yet the puppet remained motionless.

Murong Qinglian covered her mouth in a soft chuckle, “This is a puppet magic tool. A conventional attraction technique can’t control it. You have to use corresponding Dao law methods.

“Puppet magic tool?”

“Yes, listen well. The divine merges with the spirit, the spirit exists within matter, complicated upper bracket…”

Under the guidance of the charming woman, Luo Chen swiftly mastered the puppet technique.

First, he injected spirit power into a puppet beast and then stimulated the soul data.

However, during the Qi Refinement Stage, your spirit consciousness can’t leave your body. Therefore, it can only be mediated through spirit qi.

Suddenly.

Click!

A tiny pangolin abruptly took a step forward.

A delighted Luo Chen commanded the pangolin to move step by step with a thought, and it obligingly began to crawl.

Starting from slow, it gradually picked up speed and eventually started running around quickly in the yard.

“This is so fun, how interesting!”

“I had heard that puppetry rivals the Four Arts of Immortal Cultivation, but I was skeptical. After seeing this, I truly believe it lives up to its reputation!”

“It’s like a creation technique!”

Luo Chen repeatedly praised, and with a single thought, the little pangolin

crawled onto his shoulder.

Only then did he turn around and noticed Qin Liangchen and his wife looking

at him in surprise.

“Good lad, your spirit consciousness foundation is surprisingly profound!”

Qin Liangchen was once again astonished by his neighbor.

Firstly by his extremely agile body movements, and now by his extraordinarily advanced spirit consciousness foundation.

Luo Chen was puzzled, “Spirit consciousness foundation?”

Murong Qinglian nodded at him, “All things have spirits and life has a soul. Once humans begin their cultivation, they develop spirit consciousness. At the beginning of Qi Refinement, spirit consciousness resides within the sea of consciousness and can’t leave the body. Once Foundation Establishment is achieved, spirit consciousness can leave the body and extend to a radius of several miles. If one can luckily achieve the Great Dao Path of Golden Core, it can even evolve into divine consciousness, illuminating heaven and earth.

Soul, spirit consciousness, divine consciousness.

Luo Chen silently contemplated these terms.

He had heard fragments about them before, but now he realized how closely

they were interconnected.

“But how could you tell my spirit consciousness foundation is deep?

Luo Chen was puzzled.

According to their explanation, spirit consciousness cannot leave the body during Qi Refinement. How could they know about the strength of his spirit consciousness?

This time it was Qin Liangchen’s turn to enlighten him.

“Indeed, it’s impossible to detect the strength of the spirit consciousness of low-order cultivators. However, we can judge it by its outward manifestations. The simplest of which is puppet control.”

“In fact, we only learned this trick during our journey.”

Qin Liangchen said proudly, “The Luo Yun Sect my son joined is making its mark in the Yu Ding Realm with puppet technique. They have their own methods for testing and training spirit consciousness. As our son was getting initiated, my wife and I had a go at it too.”

“For example, to control this first order puppet beast, the speed of your first attempt, the maximum control time, the speed of the puppet beast, etc., can all reveal a hint about the depth of the spirit consciousness foundation.” Murong Qinglian nodded, supporting her Dao companion cultivator’s words, “indeed, it’s said that every year, the Luo Yun Sect holds a puppet beast speed competition inside, with generous prizes for the winners.”

Puppet beast race!

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen’s eyes lit up.

He had just experienced the pangolin’s running speed, which was almost equal to a middle stage Qi Refinement cultivator making full use of the Wind Riding

Technique.

And that’s when he was still getting the hang of it.

If someone designed a puppet better suited for running, and if it started to run, it could rival the physical speed of demon beasts!

However, after the excitement faded, he felt a bit downcast. Sect life really does seem colorful, but sadly, it’s not something he could enjoy. “Your skill in swiftly controlling the pangolin puppet beast suggests that your Spirit Consciousness Foundation far surpasses what my wife and I demonstrated initially.”

“It is said that the Spirit Consciousness of an Early Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator can usually be extended about two miles.’ Murong Qinglian spoke with a tone of admiration, “If you could advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage, I fear even at the initial stage of forming your Spirit Consciousness, it could reach as far as four to five miles.

Wow, I’m that badass?!

Luo Chen grinned, vaguely discerning the reason in his mind.

It could either be a bonus from being a transmigrator.

Or it could be due to the Heart’s Test he had crossed previously, which had significantly enhanced his spirit.

He was able to refine two furnaces of elixir in a day without feeling exhausted. Luo Chen asked curiously, “You mentioned that apart from testing the Spirit Consciousness, the Luo Yun Sect also has methods to train it? May I know how to train my Spirit Consciousness?”

“We don’t really know,” Murong Qinglian shook her head helplessly, “It is said that the stronger your Spirit Consciousness, the more, and the more powerful, puppets you could control. Perhaps the training method has something to do with controlling multiple puppets!”

Qin Liangchen smacked his lips, “Puppet beasts are really costly. We bought a few first-order ones, intending to present them as special products to you. But it cost us a huge amount of Spirit Stones.”

“Thank you for going through such trouble,” Luo Chen reluctantly handed the pangolin back.

“Hey, it’s not like we are short of one, don’t be so formal.

Qin Liangchen waved his hand dismissively.

“Once my son becomes a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, I can get as many as I want.”

Every time he mentioned his son, Xiao Hu, a touch of pride would always accompany his manly, rough exterior.

Murong Qinglian displayed the same feeling, radiating a motherly, divine aura. She stood and lifted her skirt, “Let’s clean up the house first. You two chat, and I’ll call you when dinner’s ready.”

Can I score another free meal?

“Isn’t it a bit much, my pot still has simmering pork leg in it,” Luo Chen said, sheepishly.

Qin Liangchen laughed, “Didn’t expect you could cook, but I doubt it tastes that good. Don’t be shy with my wife. Bring your braised pork leg over to enjoy it together later.”

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”

After Murong Qinglian busied herself, Qin Liangchen stayed in the yard, chatting with Luo Chen.

He was a generous and talkative man, his worldly experiences widely broadened after years of cultivation.

Now that he had left home and visited the Luo Yun Sect with its different customs and practices, he had even more stories to share.

Fortunately, Luo Chen was quite passionate about learning and played the listener’s role perfectly.

As they chatted back and forth, one could only lament how late their friendship had started, but how harmonious their connection had become instantly.

“If not for 01′ Mi’s insistence, we would’ve lingered around the Hu Yun Mountain a bit more. Really, what’s the point of fighting life and death battles?

Such a waste.”

Qin Liangchen ranted about the reason for their return, hurling disparaging words at that 01′ Mi.

To those unacquainted, they might have mistaken him for some riffraff. But Luo Chen knew that the 01′ Mi he mentioned was the real deal, a Powerhouse of Foundation Establishment Stage, and the current gang leader of the Broken Mountain Gang.

Surprised, he asked, “Big Brother Qin, are you going to fight for the Broken Mountain Gang?”

Qin Liangchen snorted in annoyance, “Of course, I have to help! Back when I couldn’t even afford meals, 01′ Mi gave me a job to guard the storage. I was just at the Second Level of Qi Refinement then. Now that he’s in trouble, I can’t just stand by and do nothing.”

Luo Chen hadn’t expected this. It was bad enough that his brother Wang Yuan would be participating in this deadly brawl.

Now, Qin Liangchen, who he had just recognized as a brother, was also joining in.

What’s going on?!

After some pondering, he decided to provide a gentle reminder.

“Big Brother Qin, I fear it will be tough for the Broken Mountain Gang to beat the Great Lake Gang. You should be aware of the dangers involved.”

Qin Liangchen cast a glance at Luo Chen and fell silent for a moment.

But soon, he waved it off nonchalantly.

“This is the way things are. No matter how risky, it can’t be worse than the time I went into the mountains to kill demon beasts as a Fourth Level Qi Refinement Cultivator. 01′ Mi has made it clear to me about this brawl. It’s the Lianyun Business Union pulling strings behind the scenes, isn’t it!”

“There’s no room for negotiation. We just need to smash them to oblivion..”
