Puppets weren’t as strictly confined as talisman making.

After understanding the principles, one could flexibly modify certain minor areas depending on the situation.

Then, Lu Changsheng removed the golden Heart Protecting Mirror from the chest of the puppet.

Inside was hollow, being the core of the puppet’s spiritual control mechanism.

If the core were damaged, the puppet would be wasted, necessitating major repairs.

Lu Changsheng took out a Spiritual Pattern Carving Knife and, infusing it with Spiritual Power, slowly traced over the puppet’s chest core.

He needed to activate all the Spiritual Patterns and formations on the puppet’s body, linking them together.

This was the final step and also the most critical one.

If he failed, he would have to check the other parts’ Spiritual Pattern Formations again, re-engrave, and reassemble.

During this process, Lu Changsheng was extremely focused.

Each time the carving knife landed, it was precise and deliberate.

Time passed by slowly.

Finally, Lu Changsheng completed the last stroke.

He then poured a jar of thickly mixed Spiritual Liquid into it and embedded ten Spirit Stones.

In that moment, the entire puppet’s surface shimmered with Spiritual Light.

Pattern after pattern emerged, ancient and mysterious, emitting a faint spiritual pressure.

“Phew, it’s finally a success!”

Lu Changsheng looked at the Metal Puppet before him, revealing a tired smile on his face.

To construct this Second Rank Puppet, it had taken him a total of over four months.

Now that it was complete, he felt a considerable sense of achievement.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng performed the Puppet Control Technique to take charge of the puppet in front of him.

Instantly, the puppet’s surface glowed with a faint luster like that of ink jade, and a ‘humming’ sound emanated from within.

It was as if a war machine was awakening, spreading a terrifying spiritual pressure.

His Mental Spirit nudged slightly.

“Whoosh!”

The puppet, holding the Black Gold Long Knife, made a fierce slash forward, the blade like thunder and lightning, seemingly tearing the air apart.

“It looks alright, but this place is too small to test the real strength of this Second Rank Puppet!”

“With too much force, the house might just collapse,” said Lu Changsheng, smacking his lips and shaking his head.

The puppet before him was the Second Rank Lower Grade humanoid combat puppet he had intended to build.

It was a puppet designed for close combat, combining offense and defense.

However, despite its emphasis on melee, that doesn’t mean it lacked ranged attacks.

The five javelins on its back could be launched over long distances.

Each strike was comparable to a hit from an early phase Foundation Establishment cultivator.

For a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator facing this puppet, if they were too slow to escape, it almost guaranteed a dead end.

As for facing a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator,

one could only say, unless they were old and frail, just coming out of a battle, or had exhausted all their skills, a Foundation Building Great Cultivator,

Otherwise, it would be a fool’s dream to rely on a single puppet to defeat a Foundation Building Great Cultivator.

After all, anyone who could achieve the status of a Foundation Building Great Cultivator was no simple individual.

None were devoid of remarkable abilities.

“However, to allow this puppet to unleash its full strength and sustain combat, it requires embedding Middle Grade Spirit Stones, or even Superior Grade Spirit Stones,”

“Ten Lower Grade Spirit Stones simply can’t sustain its continuous outbursts,” Lu Changsheng mused as he assessed the puppet before him, stroking his chin.

This puppet, although it had a Spirit Gathering Formation for storing Spiritual Energy,

had a limited capacity and couldn’t sustain long periods of combat.

To operate for extended durations and engage in lengthy battles, it absolutely depended on Spirit Stones for sustenance.

“Let’s leave it like this for now. When I have Spirit Stones, I’ll exchange for ten Middle Grade Spirit Stones,” Lu Changsheng silently decided, not feeling too distressed about it.

It was not like he was going to skimp on ten Middle Grade Spirit Stones when he had already constructed a Second Rank Puppet,

Even though embedding ten Middle Grade Spirit Stones did indeed feel somewhat excessive.

Converted to Lower Grade Spirit Stones, that would be a full thousand.

But he wouldn’t use this Second Rank Puppet often, so it wouldn’t consume Spirit Stones.

In the event of an extended period of operational combat, it would be during a crisis where his life was at stake, and he couldn’t skimp on this expense.

Nine days later,

The Second Elder was about to return to the Lu Family and sent someone to inform Lu Changsheng.

Knowing that the Flying Boat could seat three people, Lu Changsheng decided to take two of his wives and Jiang Louyue back with him.

He had Jiang Louyue return to teach the children martial arts.

When the Second Elder saw that Lu Changsheng had another wife,

and they were all pregnant or holding babies, he couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.

He wanted to offer a few words of advice, but didn’t quite know what to say,

only reminding Lu Changsheng to take it easy with the children and to pay more attention to his health.

In his heart, he resolved to let the Fourth Elder discuss this matter with Lu Changsheng,

worried that if Lu Changsheng kept on like this, he seriously feared the man might ruin his health.

A day and a half later, the Flying Boat smoothly returned to Qingzhu Mountain.

After getting home, Lu Changsheng talked with his wives about Jiang Louyue teaching martial arts to their children.

The wives understood.

Knowing that their children lacked a Spiritual Root, it was good for them to learn martial arts in preparation for life in the secular world.

If nothing else, practicing martial arts would at least strengthen their bodies and keep them healthy,

but seeing that Jiang Louyue was also pregnant, the wives couldn’t help but silently criticize their husband, who didn’t even spare their children’s teacher.

After staying on Qingzhu Mountain for three days,

during which Lu Changsheng, under the guidance of the Fourth Elder in Talisman Making, displayed his progress in Talisman Making,

he began learning about Superior Grade Talismans.

This was in line with his previous plans,

by the next visit, he would be able to naturally reveal his status as a Superior Grade Talisman Master.

At the same time, he also paid a visit to Li Feiyu,

chatting with him about coming to teach his children martial arts.

According to his plans, the first batch of children would be sent to the secular world in two to three years,

and now, asking Li Feiyu to teach them martial arts, as well as some worldly knowledge and experience, would bring some benefits to the children.
