Chapter 269: Completion of Creation

After dealing with Gou Mang, Chen Ansheng began to contemplate where to find a puppet.

After sitting cross-legged for a while, Chen Ansheng suddenly realized.

“In the Spirit Realm, there are quite a few naturally born monsters that should be usable as a body!”

With this thought, Chen Ansheng focused his mind and began to observe the Spirit Realm that was suspended within him.

In the entire Spirit Realm, there were thousands of transforming beast monsters. They were native and wouldn’t bring external pressure to the Spirit Realm, so Chen Ansheng had never bothered with them.

Covering the entire world with his thoughts, Chen Ansheng selected a transforming tiger monster.

“To avoid being detected by that old guy, I must temporarily conceal my presence with Chaos True Qi.”

The Snow-Haired Elder had only left a trace of divine thought in the tower, insufficient to penetrate the Chaos True Qi.

Moreover, even if the old man discovered him, Chen Ansheng could simply say he was cultivating.

Then, Chen Ansheng summoned the Chaos True Qi to form a ball of yellow mist, and with a thought, quickly entered the Spirit Realm.

On a peak in the Spirit Realm, the transforming tiger monster was dispensing the essence of heaven and earth.

Swish!

An unparalleled figure suddenly appeared before it.

“You, you are…”

The tiger monster felt the terrifying aura and trembled all over like a sieve.

As a low-level tiger monster, Chen Ansheng couldn’t be bothered to explain anything to it.

“Puppet Technique!”

A powerful divine thought invaded the tiger monster’s soul.

“Roar!”

The tiger monster let out a painful scream, and after two or three breaths, it became stiff and motionless.

This was forcibly being turned into a puppet, equivalent to turning it into a walking corpse.

Chen Ansheng didn’t care; what he wanted was just this body.

“I have thoroughly grasped the embodiment refinement method; I’ll take care of it myself without asking my Master for help.”

Refining an embodiment required severing the soul, a process extremely painful. As long as Chen Ansheng was willing to go through with it, there was no need to trouble his Master.

After all, if his Master released her divine thought, it could attract the attention of the Snow-Haired Elder.

Then, Chen Ansheng activated the embodiment refinement method, with the spell’s blade piercing into his own celestial soul.

“Hiss, ah!!!”

A scream that could shatter the earth reverberated, shaking the entire Spirit Realm.

Then, Chen Ansheng took that fragment of his soul, sent it into the tiger monster’s body, and used the Soul Nourishing Method to merge it with the inactive soul of the tiger monster, slowly assimilating it.

In this way, a low-level embodiment was created.

This embodiment had the same aura as his main body, including the aura of cultivation, but it lacked self-awareness and needed Chen Ansheng to control it like a puppet.

For someone with strong mental power like Chen Ansheng, this was not difficult; he could do it with ease.

“Haha, nice!”

After using the Disguise Technique taught by Elder Ji to transform the tiger monster into his own appearance, Chen Ansheng was very satisfied.

It truly looked exactly like him.

“Celestial Spirit Qi, come!”

Then, as the master of the Spirit Realm, Chen Ansheng drew celestial spirit qi from the Spirit Realm and infused it into the embodiment, rapidly nourishing its celestial body. What originally would have taken forty-nine days to revive, awakened within a few hours in the Spirit Realm.

After completing this, Chen Ansheng glanced at his grandmother.

She was being attended by several maids and was relatively stable.

However, the issue of the Spirit Realm being pressured by external laws had yet to be resolved, and he needed to supplement the laws quickly.

Chen Ansheng decided to visit his grandmother briefly, fearing that she might be reluctant to see him go. He was in a difficult situation himself.

After a short stay, Chen Ansheng brought his embodiment back to the tower.

At this time, only a quarter of an hour had passed in the outside world.

As the Chaos True Qi dissipated, to outsiders, Chen Ansheng appeared to be sitting cross-legged in the same spot.

In reality, Chen Ansheng’s main body had activated the Chaos Concealment Method, which even the Snow-Haired Elder’s divine thought couldn’t detect.

Since he was concealed in chaos, he couldn’t use any celestial power.

Chen Ansheng used his mind to control the embodiment and brought it out of the tower.

Once outside, he saw the Snow-Haired Elder receiving the fierce general, Wu Conggang.

“Disciple, why are you not diligently cultivating, and where do you intend to go?”

The Snow-Haired Elder’s cold voice came through.

To be honest, Chen Ansheng was quite nervous at this moment; if his concealment method were discovered, he might be killed on the spot.

“Hu.”

Chen Ansheng calmed himself and spoke through the embodiment, “Reporting to Master, the disciple’s cultivation has been fruitless, and he is feeling quite restless. I came out for some fresh air.”

“Hmph.” The Snow-Haired Elder snorted coldly and said, “With a distracted mind, how can you achieve great things? From now on, without my orders, you are not to leave your quarters.”

“Disciple understands.”

The embodiment bowed deeply, its words and actions identical to Chen Ansheng.

“The old man can’t see through this; that eases my mind.”

Chen Ansheng breathed a sigh of relief, controlling the embodiment to return to the tower while he remained in the palace.

“Celestial King, what merit does that kid have to make you consider taking him as a disciple?”

Wu Conggang asked in confusion.

The Snow-Haired Elder sneered, “Spare him for now; he’s temporarily useful.”

Wu Conggang nodded. Based on his understanding of the Snow-Haired Elder, he trusted no one and would never take a disciple. It seemed that he had been betrayed by those around him in the past.

Then, the Snow-Haired Elder ordered, “Dispose of those suspicious women; their corpses and flesh can be thrown into the blood pool.”

“Yes!” Wu Conggang complied, then added, “Celestial King, one of those women is a subordinate of a Celestial King outside the city, with slightly lower cultivation than myself. If we kill her, I fear the outside Celestial King might come looking for trouble; what do you think?”

The Snow-Haired Elder frowned and said, “The female demon that killed my grandson is far less powerful than her. Why did you capture this higher-ranked woman?”

Appearance can be altered, but cultivation cannot be rapidly raised, so the Snow-Haired Elder knew that the woman Wu Conggang mentioned was not the one who had killed his grandson.

Wu Conggang responded, “Reporting to the Celestial King, the other day my subordinates attempted to capture that kid named Chen, and this woman obstructed them, injuring my men. Later, when I personally went to intimidate her, she was unruly and dared to fight me, so it took some effort to subdue her.”

“A clueless fool; killing her is no loss.” The Snow-Haired Elder said coldly.

“Understood.”

Wu Conggang complied.

In the past, they would never have acted this way as it could harm the reputation of Peace City.

But the situation was different now; the Snow-Haired Elder’s integration plan was about to be implemented, and everyone in the city would have to enter the blood pool, with no need for caution.

However, one thing was that the Abyssal Dragon Sea was located at the intersection of three territories, where the three major powers had established rules not to interfere, allowing low-tier rogue Celestial Kings to fight amongst themselves. The Snow-Haired Elder, as a Peak Immortal King with military symbols, had no right to dominate here, so he didn’t dare go outside the city to capture people and cause slaughter, fearing it would provoke the major powers into interfering.

Chen Ansheng quietly shrank back to the side, listening to this conversation.

He knew that the woman mentioned by the fierce general was Gu Miaoyan.
