Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Su Xing was shocked, and at the same time muttered with some surprise,

"If I trigger the Origin of Power... I should be able to instantly kill True Person Wan Mu with one punch, right?"

"After killing True Person Wan Mu, perhaps the Spirit Vein Dragon won't be exposed... By then, maybe the Dragon Protector won't know about the emergence of the Spirit Vein Dragon?"

Su Xing was lost in thought.

But this was just Su Xing's guess. To know the specific situation, Su Xing still needed to try it in the next simulation.

"And the Dao of Puppets... Now, after receiving two lessons from Ghost Grandma, although my study of the Dao of Puppets is at the beginner level, it should be enough to drive ordinary puppets, right?"

Su Xing looked at the eight puppets left by the Damned Zong.

If these eight puppets were slightly modified, perhaps Su Xing could have a batch of free labor for alchemy and farming.

So, in the next week, Su Xing began to try modifying the Living Dead Puppets.

"These puppets are all combat types... they are not specifically for alchemy. The abilities of humanoid puppets are not much different from their abilities when they were alive..."

Su Xing first consulted the Damned Zong's diary and spent an hour to find the identities of the eight puppets.

Among the eight puppets, three had wood and fire attributes of Spiritual Energy, namely Flower Fairy and the other two puppets.

One of the puppets had even been an alchemist.

Knowing that these three puppets had the ability for alchemy, the next steps became much simpler.

Su Xing first erased the Divine Sense Marks left by the Damned Zong on the puppets, then left his own mark.

Next, Su Xing opened the control core of the Living Dead Puppet, which was generally located in the puppet's heart.

A puppet's abilities mainly depended on three parts.

The first part was Su Xing's Divine Soul Mark, which Su Xing could activate to command the puppet.

Secondly, it was the puppet mark at the puppet's control core.

There were many types of puppet marks: combat, auxiliary, spirit array, alchemy, and talisman-making.

With different puppet marks, the puppet could perform different tasks.

The third part was the abilities the person had before they died, which would be retained to a certain extent.

And since Su Xing couldn't independently create new puppet marks to replace them, only those three puppets with alchemy talent could be used for alchemy.

Su Xing named them, Ah Da, Ah Er, and Xiao Mei!

Ah Da had been at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage before being made into a puppet, and he retained strength close to the peak Nascent Soul level. He had also been an alchemist.

So Su Xing easily taught him how to make Fasting Pills.

After all, this was the lowest rank of elixir. Even a Foundation Establishment puppet could make it.

Ah Er was also at the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage and retained wood and fire attributes of Spiritual Energy after becoming a puppet.

Although he was a combat puppet without intelligence and independent consciousness, he had the ability to mimic and learn.

So Su Xing let him follow Ah Da to learn how to make Fasting Pills. He would likely learn it soon.

As for Xiao Mei, she was the Damned Zong's lover, Flower Fairy.

She had only the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage, but her physical body was well-preserved, with some residual consciousness. She was likely a top-notch puppet refined through secret methods by the Damned Zong.

Her strength was the lowest, but her potential was significant.

Su Xing temporarily let Xiao Mei also learn how to make Fasting Pills.

As for the remaining five Living Dead Puppets, Su Xing let them do farming and weeding tasks.

This would also reduce Su Xing's pressure.

The Living Dead Puppets had no independent consciousness and didn't need rest.

They only needed regular energy infusion, inserting Spirit Stones into the core, to be used continuously.

After some calculation, Su Xing found that if they only did weeding tasks, one puppet would need only one Low-grade Spirit Stone per year.

Alchemy required more Spirit Stones, with one puppet needing ten Low-grade Spirit Stones per month.

But this was entirely manageable for Su Xing, who had tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.

"It's just... puppets need an incredible number of Spirit Stones for combat!"

"And the early-stage Return to Void Realm puppet obtained from the Wan Mu Sect ruins is almost scrapped... Maybe I can try to repair it when I have time in the future?"

Very quickly, a week passed.

In Su Xing's Spirit Field Cave, there were eight new free puppet laborers.

Ah Da performed well, providing Su Xing with an extra one thousand Fasting Pills per week, with a chance to produce top-quality Fasting Pills.

Ah Er was slightly worse, producing about five hundred Fasting Pills per week.

As for Xiao Mei, she made only about a hundred Fasting Pills per week, with a high failure rate.

However, Su Xing was very patient, considering it as future accumulation.

As long as there were enough puppets, Su Xing could produce tens of thousands of Fasting Pills per week in the future!

This week, Su Xing was busy modifying puppets and teaching them alchemy, so he only managed to make less than two thousand Fasting Pills himself.

When the day came to meet Jin Congxue, Su Xing disguised himself and suppressed his aura before going to the villa area.

In the villa, Jin Congxue had been waiting for a long time.

The two sat facing each other, eating and chatting.

Jin Congxue took out a storage ring she had prepared earlier and said,

"The new week's goods, including the output from the second-rank alien metal mine, are here... From now on, we can stably provide second-rank alien metal every week!"
