Immortality System: Cultivating with Girls

Inside the Refining Artifact Hall.

Flames soared to the sky as Wen Zhixing controlled the Earth Core Spirit Fire, tempering Ning Shan's body.

It's a pity that a puppet crafted from a dead being has no potential for growth.

Wen Zhixing's gaze was like a torch, his eyes reflecting the flames within the cauldron.

With his current skills in the refining path, crafting a puppet posed no difficulty at all; it was as easy as reaching out and grabbing it.

Simultaneously, he also identified the puppet's disadvantage.

A dead person is, after all, dead.

Once refined, the puppet's strength would be fixed, with no possibility of further improvement.

Moreover, it wouldn't be as natural as Zhang Tiancheng. It's very easy for others to notice.

No wonder Mu Yunqing made Zhang Tiancheng so crudely. It wasn't because his skills were inadequate, but because the difficulty was too high.

Wen Zhixing also realized how difficult it was to refine a living person puppet.

Even with his cultivation at the Third Realm of Artifact Refining, perfectly crafting a living person puppet was exceedingly difficult.

He might inadvertently refine a living person into a dead one.

In particular, the array methods for converting the forces of life and death were beyond his current ability to learn.

Mu Yunqing truly is a genius.

Admiration involuntarily arose in Wen Zhixing's heart.

Some things, one can only understand the difficulty of by doing them oneself.

Soon, Ning Shan's body was almost completely refined.

Her entire body's flesh and blood had been refined into a single Blood Pill, which now hovered where her Sea of Qi had once been.

This served as the source of the puppet's physical strength.

Her torso, with the aid of various auxiliary materials, had been made exceedingly tough and resilient.

Ning Shan's remnant soul is trapped within this skin. It seems I'll have to use the remnant soul from this skin as a substitute.

Wen Zhixing then took out the skin and forcibly refined it together with the body.

"Ah!"

Horrifying screams seemed to echo from within the skin.

Thanks to the Beast Creation Skill, the remnant soul was well preserved. Wen Zhixing could even faintly see its ghastly appearance as it seemed to turn its head.

"Disperse!"

Wen Zhixing narrowed his eyes, and a streak of Nine Heavens Mysterious Thunder burst forth directly.

CRACK!

In an instant, the divine soul within the skin was mostly shattered and dissipated.

Only a few fragments of the divine soul remained, drifting within.

Refining a puppet didn't require a powerful divine soul within the body; a mere flicker of consciousness capable of executing commands was sufficient.

The first step is done... two more to go...

Wen Zhixing exhaled softly.

The physical body was now considered complete. However, this was merely the most foundational step.

Immediately, Wen Zhixing formed hand seals and began to embed array methods within Ning Shan's body.

The puppet before him resembled a dried corpse, which naturally wouldn't do.

For a dead object to appear human, he could currently only rely on the power of array methods.

"Rejuvenation Array, Blood Fiend Array, Concealing Spirit Array, Spirit Gathering Array..."

With the aid of his Divine Consciousness Power, one array method after another was rapidly deployed.

Fortunately, Wen Zhixing had previously advanced to the Second Realm.

These array methods were all a piece of cake for him.

After some time, Ning Shan's shriveled body began to fill out at a rate visible to the naked eye.

The Blood Pill within her began to circulate.

A large amount of blood energy began to surge.

Would it be better if I added my own blood to this Blood Pill?

Seeing this, Wen Zhixing immediately had an idea.

He possessed the Longevity Body.

The blood it contained, although not granting eternal life with a single bite like that of the monk Tang Sanzang, surely possessed extraordinary effects.

With that in mind, Wen Zhixing promptly slit his own wrist.

Bright red blood surged out.

"Go!"

With a mental command, Wen Zhixing directed his blood into the Blood Pill.

BUZZ!

Instantly, the Blood Pill began to vibrate and spin rapidly.

Wen Zhixing's blood acted like a supreme tonic; the blood energy of the Blood Pill began to increase explosively.

The Blood Pill, originally the size of an eyeball, doubled in size in a moment.

Ning Shan's body also began to change.

A healthy, rosy color began to suffuse her originally pale face.

Incredibly, new flesh and blood began to regenerate upon her very bones.

Despite not being fully refined and theoretically devoid of any aura, the puppet body began to exude a faint trace of a living person's aura.

"Eh?"

Wen Zhixing was somewhat surprised to see new flesh and blood regenerating.

It seems my own blood is indeed remarkable. Possessing the Longevity Body, I myself don't feel much of a difference, but for others, it's undoubtedly a great tonic. Evidently, it can even nourish a corpse.

If my Longevity Body grew stronger, perhaps like Tang Sanzang, a single bite could indeed grant others immortality, Wen Zhixing mused, stroking his chin. Thinking this, I might actually be in some danger. If some peerless powerhouse were to discover this, I might be captured and used as a great tonic!

CRACK!

Just then, an abnormal sound came from the Blood Pill.

Wen Zhixing immediately returned to his senses, only to see that the Blood Pill had grown larger by another circle.

The blood energy surrounding it grew terrifyingly intense, but a crack appeared on its surface.

This indicated that the Blood Pill had reached its containment limit.

"Stop."

Wen Zhixing hurriedly stopped infusing his own blood.

My blood is still too potent, too nourishing.

The Blood Pill, formed from all of Ning Shan's flesh and blood, couldn't absorb too much of it.

That should be enough.

Wen Zhixing took another look and nodded in satisfaction.

Ning Shan lay with her eyes closed. Her skin glowed with a translucent sheen, resembling mutton-fat jade—cool and clear.

Wen Zhixing stepped forward and touched Ning Shan's forehead. He found the texture smooth and delicate.

Although the refinement wasn't yet complete, Ning Shan already seemed no different from a living person.

Only the final step remained to achieve success.
