My Beasts Grind Proficiency For Me

Assembling a Puppet is no less difficult than refining one.

This is especially true for giant Puppets. Their immense size prevents them from being refined in one piece like ordinary Magical Treasures; they must be crafted in separate sections and components.

In such cases, even the slightest misalignment during assembly could prevent the original tendons and Acupoints from connecting properly. This would severely degrade the Puppet's performance, possibly even rendering it non-functional.

Therefore, even with countless Puppets to serve as laborers, Yang Jing chose to assemble all the components himself, proceeding with extreme care.

With a flick of his hands to form a Spell, eleven rays of Spiritual Light shot toward the heavens from within the Positive and Negative Five Elements Formation.

The next moment, the internal organs he had previously refined all flew out from the core of the Spirit Vein's array.

Following the principles of generation and restriction among the Five Elements, Yang Jing installed the internal organs into the skeleton in sequence. Since they had been refined at different times, there were subtle deviations when they circulated the Five Elements Qi.

Fortunately, Yang Jing's mastery of the Five Elements had already reached the Peak of Perfection. He activated the Five Elements Wheel, coordinating the Five Elements Qi flowing between the organs.

Once the Five Elements were balanced, Yang Jing installed the Spiritual Tendons and Spiritual Muscle he had prepared beforehand.

This Puppet was being refined for the sake of practicing the Nine Yang Body, but as Nine Marvels had said, it would definitely possess Power on par with the Nascent Soul Level upon completion. That being the case, he certainly wouldn't allow it to have any obvious weaknesses.

Most ordinary Human Puppets directly used Magical Power to move their bodies and weren't fitted with refined Spiritual Tendons.

Lacking the strength generated by Spiritual Tendons and Spiritual Muscle, Human Puppets created this way were considerably weaker than Body Refining Cultivators of the same tier.

Yang Jing would not tolerate such a shortcoming. He used the muscles of Demons from the Nine Heavens World, blended with Copper Thread refined from Red Sun Refined Copper, to create powerful Spiritual Tendons and Spiritual Muscle befitting the Puppet.

Because these Demons lived in an environment with Spiritual Qi nearly as rich as the Upper Realm, their bodies were far stronger than those of other Demons at the same tier, making them the most suitable materials for refining Spiritual Tendons and Bones and Spiritual Muscle.

This way, even if its Celestial Gang Qi was depleted, the Puppet could still fight by drawing upon its own Spiritual Tendons and Spiritual Muscle.

Furthermore, Red Sun Refined Copper had an extremely high affinity for Yang Attribute Gang Qi, making it the undisputed choice for the Nine Yang Sect when refining Magical Treasures. Therefore, Yang Jing had not only added Red Sun Refined Copper when creating the Spirit Liquid but had also mixed it into the skeleton, Spiritual Tendons, and Spiritual Muscle.

Afterward, Yang Jing implanted the refined sensory organs, unlike Ghost Puppets, which crudely perceive the world through Restrictions etched onto their skulls.

Among the sensory organs, he paid special attention to the eyes. They were a crimson red, and even by themselves, constituted a pair of Tier Four Magical Treasures.

Once installed in the Human Puppet, the eyes looked as if they were about to burst into roaring flames.

"What a formidable Puppet."

Nine Marvels, who had appeared by his side at some unknown time, gazed at the Human Puppet and spoke with a grave tone.

"I misjudged it before. This Puppet's combat Power will likely exceed my expectations."

"After all, the Spiritual Materials spent on it are enough to refine fifteen or sixteen Tier Four Magical Treasures,"

Yang Jing said, looking at the Human Puppet.

"This Human Puppet operates using a Yang-attribute Body Refining Technique, doesn't it?"

Nine Marvels asked with some gravity.

Yang Jing had no intention of hiding it.

"Naturally. I am refining this Human Puppet for the express purpose of running the Nine Yang Body."

"No wonder I felt a vague sense of unease... To think the Nine Yang Body technique is still in circulation!" Nine Marvels's eyes flew wide as he stared at Yang Jing. "This Cultivation Technique was created back when the Central Continent fell. A Void Refining Cultivator, who had been fortunate enough to survive the collision of heaven and earth, was inspired by the sight of the world Outside the Central Continent being encircled by Outer Celestial Demons. He specifically created this Demon Refining Technique in response."

"Unfortunately, the Nine Yang Sect, which inherited this technique, ultimately failed to survive the Demon Tribulation. Their lineage was extinguished."

"Kid, listen. Outside the Nine Heavens, there are Demon Saints whose power is equivalent to the Void Refining Realm. Ordinarily, they don't interfere with the Nine Heavens World. However, the moment a Demon Refining Technique or a Demon Refining Magical Treasure appears, they will send down a Demon Tribulation. This Human Puppet you've created, in my eyes, is already pushing the very limits of a Tier Four Magical Treasure. Within the Nine Heavens World, it is undoubtedly one of the finest Ultimate Demon Refining Treasures in existence. The instant its refining is complete, the Demon Saint from the Outer Realm will absolutely send down a Demon Tribulation to destroy it."

Nine Marvels said with a solemn expression.

Though he too was a Tier Six existence, a Magical Treasure cannot unleash its full power without a Cultivator to wield it. Besides, as a Creation Treasure, he wasn't skilled in Magical Combat and would be no match for that Demon Saint.

Yang Jing's expression turned grave.

'When it comes to Ultimate Demon Refining Treasures, I'm a far greater counter to the Outer Celestial Demons than this Human Puppet, which is merely a Magical Treasure. Both my Five Thunders and True Martial Demon Vibration are first-class Demon-Slaying Divine Techniques among the Great Divine Techniques.'

'If completing the Human Puppet will attract a Demon Tribulation, would that Demon Saint from the Outer Realm simply let me be when I undergo my own Nascent Soul Formation?'

Yang Jing took a deep breath. He was lucky he had met Nine Marvels and learned this hidden information. Had he attempted Nascent Soul Formation in ignorance, he would have been caught completely unprepared.

"Senior Nine Marvels, could you please tell me more about this Demon Tribulation?"

Yang Jing hurriedly asked for guidance.

"This Demon Tribulation is when the Demon Saint tears an opening in the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Membrane to send down Celestial Demons. For example, this Puppet you're refining is at the peak of Tier Four. It will attract at least seven Demon Kings of the Nascent Soul Level."

Nine Marvels said with a grim face:

"And if anyone else provides aid, another seven Outer Celestial Demons of equivalent Cultivation will be drawn here as well."

In his opinion, as powerful as this Human Puppet was, facing seven Demon Kings was still too great a challenge.

'Only seven?'

Yang Jing breathed a sigh of relief. 'If it's only seven, I should be able to handle it by relying on this Human Puppet.'

"If that Demon Saint has the power to tear open the Heaven and Earth Embryonic Membrane, why doesn't it just shatter it completely and let in the vast hordes of Outer Celestial Demons?"

Nine Marvels snorted coldly.

"Do you think we Spirit Treasures are just for decoration?"

He might not be skilled in slaughter, but the Spirit Treasures passed down by other Sects and Noble Families certainly are. Back when this Small Realm was being contested, that very Demon Saint made a move, only to have one of its heads severed by a Divinity Transformation Cultivator from the Celestial Sword Sect wielding the Jun Tian Sword.

Several battles followed, with victories and defeats on both sides, which led to the balance of power we have today.

Yang Jing nodded in understanding.

"You can finish refining your Human Puppet within the Nine Marvels Small Realm. After you've familiarized yourself with it, you can leave the Small Realm to face the Demon Tribulation. That Demon Saint won't dare attack my Small Realm, as it wants to avoid another all-out conflict."

Nine Marvels said to Yang Jing. After all, Yang Jing had earned him a massive quantity of Top-Grade Spirit Stones; he held a certain status in Nine Marvels's heart now.

"Thank you, Senior."

Even though Nine Marvels spoke of it casually, Yang Jing couldn't ask for more than his willingness to offer protection under the threat of a Demon Saint.

He formed a spell with his hands and fitted the meticulously refined Spiritual Hide onto the Human Puppet's body.

"Wait, does your Human Puppet not have hair or eyebrows?"

Looking at the completely hairless Human Puppet, Nine Marvels said, clearly disturbed.

"Hair is completely useless during Magical Combat and cultivation, so I didn't bother refining any."
