Chapter 359: Starting to Refine

The strength and potential of a Heaven Demon Puppet depended on the materials refined, and the gap between the materials could not be too large, otherwise it would only fail. This thing was like a pill, and it had to ensure balance.

Seeing that Xiao Yan refused to say, Yao Lao did not ask much. After all, Xiao Yan's ability to know the future was not a matter of a day or two.

Xiao Yan took out a frozen corpse from his storage ring. This corpse looked unusually eerie. The upper body was human, the lower body was a scorpion's tail, and the hands were not human hands, but two massive scorpion pincers.

"This thing looks a bit ugly!" Xiao Yan looked at the corpse of Xie Biyan he got from the Chuyun Empire and felt somewhat disgusted. After all, if this thing was really refined, it would definitely be some kind of monster.

Seeing Xiao Yan feeling disgusted, Yao Lao shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, "Although it is a bit ugly, it also fused all the essence blood of the Blood Demon Scorpion Emperor. As long as it is slightly refined, it can refine a powerful Heaven Demon Puppet. After all, the body of a magical beast has always been very powerful."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan also nodded. He naturally knew that the Heaven Demon Puppet refined with this body would definitely not be weaker than a five-star Dou Zong.

Xiao Yan flicked his finger, and a mass of black and white flames shot from his fingertip, falling onto Xie Biyan's body. Under the scorching high temperature, the ice layer enveloping him melted instantly, and the clothes also dissipated, transforming into nothingness.

With the constant burning of the Exotic Fire, strands of faint black Qi constantly drifted from the corpse, then were burned into nothingness by the Exotic Fire.

After Xiao Yan cleared the corpse completely, Xie Biyan's body also underwent a massive change, directly transforming into a blood-colored massive scorpion. After continuing to temper for a while, he directly flicked his finger, and a force Qi shot from his fingertip, opening a small hole in the scorpion's head, then took out a seventh-rank magic core from his storage ring and put it in, then continued to temper with flames.

Time passed slowly. Because of the addition of the magic core, the aura emitted by the scorpion became stronger and stronger. Until it reached a certain peak and the aura no longer climbed, Xiao Yan took out a small jade bottle from his storage ring, placed it in his palm, and directly enveloped it with Exotic Fire. The small jade bottle instantly transformed into fly ash, and a black soul was exposed before Xiao Yan.

"Xiao Yan, what exactly do you want to do?" The black soul squirmed slowly, finally transforming into human form, looking at Xiao Yan with a face full of resentment, and said angrily.

"Hehe, Protector Tie, what are you in such a hurry for!" I will let you go now, Xiao Yan curled his lips into a smile, then the Exotic Fire in his palm erupted, directly swallowing the black soul.

"Ah!" A miserable howl rang out, and Protector Tie struggled constantly in the flames, but it was still of no avail, and finally the voice became smaller and smaller.

Xiao Yan continued to calcine with flames for a while, and after confirming that Protector Tie had completely lost his sanity, his left hand threw lightly, and this mass of black Qi drilled into the scorpion's body through the small hole.

With the addition of the soul, the originally tightly closed eyes of the scorpion opened directly, but the eyes were empty, without any sanity.

Looking at the opened eyes of the scorpion, Xiao Yan curled his lips into a smile. Everything went very smoothly, and the remaining steps were very simple, all of which were time-consuming work.

He took out some rare metals from his storage ring and placed them in his palm, then began to calcine. Under the terrifying high temperature of the Yin-Yang Dual Flames, these rare strange metals melted quickly.

After the metal was refined, Xiao Yan continued to temper the body with Exotic Fire, waiting for the perfect fusion time point of the body, soul, and magic core.

Time passed slowly without knowing it. Xiao Yan closed his eyes slightly. Xiao Yan, who had refined so many high-level pills, had long been accustomed to waiting for such things.

Suddenly, the giant scorpion's body trembled fiercely, and the soul hovering in its head finally transformed into countless light spots, densely scattering toward every part of the body.

When the soul and body fused, the magic core that had been quietly waiting in the brow center also surged with strands of violent energy, scattering to every part of the giant scorpion's limbs and bones.

With the integration of the soul and magic core, the originally light red body also turned blood-red. The giant scorpion's body size shrank a bit again, but although the body size shrank, the aura emitted from its body was even more powerful.

"Not bad! This aura has already reached the five-star Dou Zong level." Xiao Yan looked at the masterpiece before him, his lips curling into a smile.

However, Xiao Yan seemed to have thought of something, looking at the two massive pincers of the giant scorpion, and became somewhat dissatisfied. This thing was clearly somewhat inappropriate to carry on his body, after all, the body size was somewhat large.

After thinking for a long time, Xiao Yan directly took out a massive drill and a massive gear from his storage ring.

After a while of tinkering, Xiao Yan finally replaced the two massive pincers with a drill and a gear respectively.

After looking at his masterpiece again, Xiao Yan nodded with satisfaction, then threw a mass of dark golden solution in his palm toward the giant scorpion.

"Chi!" As the high-temperature metal dripped onto the giant scorpion, its surface instantly emitted strands of white mist, and a foul smell was emitted, making Xiao Yan cover his nose.

The dark golden solution constantly flowed on the giant scorpion's body, constantly covering its body, and at the same time, the very foul white mist also permeated from its body.

When the metal solution completely covered the giant scorpion's body, the originally blood-red surface now also turned dark red.

By this step, the refining of the Heaven Demon Puppet was basically over. Next, it only needed to be constantly calcined. As for what level this Heaven Demon Puppet could finally reach, Xiao Yan didn't know, but in any case, it would not be lower than the copper level.

According to the information about the Heaven Demon Puppet recorded in the bamboo slip, the Heaven Demon Puppet was divided into three grades, and the grade of the Heaven Demon Puppet mainly depended on its color: Heaven was gold, Earth was silver, and Human was copper.

Under the burning of the Exotic Fire, the dark gold solution also began to slowly permeate into the giant scorpion's skin, and with the entry of the dark gold solution, the color of the puppet's surface also began to change, from dark gold to dark cyan.

Looking at the giant scorpion that was only copper-colored, Xiao Yan's brows furrowed slightly, somewhat dissatisfied. This was not to say that this Heaven Demon Puppet grade was human-level, just that it could not evolve into a Heaven Demon Puppet in the future, and could only reach the Earth-level level, and its strength could at most reach the peak of Dou Zong.

With the constant burning of the Exotic Fire, the giant scorpion's body also began to change constantly. Although the speed was somewhat slow, its surface began to shine with silver light.

Looking at the layer of faint silver light on the giant scorpion's surface, a smile finally appeared on Xiao Yan's face. This meant that it was about to evolve into an Earth Demon Puppet.

He saw the aura emitted from the giant scorpion's body becoming stronger and stronger, and the original dark cyan disappeared completely, all turning into silver-white.

When the silver light reached a certain peak, it stopped abruptly, the silver light slowly disappeared, and all the light hid into its body.

Xiao Yan looked at the silver puppet before him, and felt inexplicably excited in his heart. After all, this was his masterpiece!
