Chapter 2194 Repairing the Puppet
In the spacious secret room, there are more than ten huge night-light pearls, which illuminate the dim environment as if it were daytime.
On the stone platform in the center of the secret room, there stands a steel figure wearing armor, completely black, holding a long sword, which is the famous "Black Iron Puppet" of Qianji Pavilion.
However, at this moment, although the puppet is still domineering, its eyes appear empty and lifeless, and there is no spiritual pressure emanating from its body. It is almost like a dead object, which is obviously due to the damage of its internal structure.
As for Qin Tian, he holds his chin with one hand, paces back and forth around the puppet, and occasionally reaches out to fiddle with it for a while, with a confused look on his face, and feels somewhat helpless.
And this situation has lasted for three days and three nights!
During this period, he used his spiritual power to carefully scan the puppet's body several times, but in the end he gained little. He only had a certain understanding of the puppet's surface structure and could recognize the spiritual materials used. However, he had no idea about the large number of micro-arrays hidden inside and the operating rules of energy conduction.
This is probably because this thing is extremely precise and is not at the same level as the Shenwei Cannon in the lower world. In this case, once it is disassembled for research, Qin has no confidence in restoring it. He will regret it and have no place to cry.
This is why the puppet can still be intact until now. Otherwise, with the nature of a certain demon, he would probably imitate a certain demon elder without hesitation.
In short, if the parts of this thing are disassembled, Qin knows most of them, but if they are all assembled together, they will become quite unfamiliar.
Fortunately, the situation is in a stalemate.
But the situation is not bad at all.
For example, what he dared not do, Di Huan did it in the past, so after asking him for advice, Qin Tian finally had a relatively superficial understanding of the internal structure.
Moreover, although the puppet was damaged, it was only a few energy conduction nodes, and most of the other places were intact, so the difficulty of repairing it was also reduced a lot. As long as the corresponding spiritual materials could be found and the exclusive parts could be refined to fill those damaged positions, then he would naturally get what he wanted.
But the difficulty was that the spiritual materials required for repair were too special, and he, Qin, had never seen them at all. Even if he searched through ancient books, he found nothing, which also made the situation completely deadlocked.
In the end, he had no choice but to take out the third treasure he got on the altar of the ruins, which was the ancient black jade slip.
And what was recorded in it was the lifelong cultivation experience of Yuanchen Zhenjun, as well as his understanding of the formation, and the basic structure and control method of the Qianji Pavilion puppet.
Although the records in it are all ordinary things, and the secret true teachings such as "Xuantian Puppet" are not detailed, after careful study word by word, Qin Tian finally gained some results.
It turns out that the reason why the puppets cast by Qianji Pavilion cannot be imitated by the outside world is that in addition to the secret casting skills, there is another crucial point, that is, the strict control of spiritual materials.
According to the jade slip, no matter what grade the puppet is, the internal structure cannot be separated from a special spiritual material, called "White Chalcedony Essence"!
It is said that this thing is not naturally generated, but is made of rare spiritual materials "White Chalcedony" and "Li Yuanjing", which are fused in precise proportions through special methods. It is a special composite spiritual material, so it has a very high degree of fit for energy conduction and can be called the best spiritual material for refining the internal parts of puppets.
But both "white chalcedony" and "Li Yuanjing" are special products without fixed regions, and their mineral veins are firmly controlled by Qianji Pavilion, so they will not easily flow into the market. In addition, the method of fusing "white chalcedony essence" is also the core secret of Qianji Pavilion, so it is almost imaginable that others want to obtain imitations.
After finding out the truth, Qin Tian's old face turned black.
Although he found a way to repair it, he couldn't travel thousands of miles to the border of the spiritual world to search for spiritual materials, right? At the critical moment when his cultivation is about to break through, this is a bit of a loss.
Moreover, even if he got "white chalcedony" and "Li Yuanjing", he couldn't fuse them without the special method of Qianji Pavilion, and it would still be a waste of effort.
In short, this is a dead end.
Today, Qin has deeply experienced what it means that a good cook can't cook without rice.
In the end, he turned the storage space upside down, but after searching through all the spiritual materials in his collection, he found nothing with similar characteristics.
Helplessly, Qin Tian could only sigh secretly, feeling deeply fooled by Di Huan. He agreed to three conditions for no reason, but ended up with a piece of "scrap copper and rotten iron". How uncomfortable it felt.
However, just when he was about to regain consciousness and find an old senior to settle accounts, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to his mind, and his body froze for a moment.
Probably because he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be such a thing, no matter the appearance or texture, it was very similar to the "white chalcedony essence" recorded in the jade slip.
It's just that this thing is slightly less auspicious.
Finally, driven by curiosity, Qin Tian couldn't help but wave his hand, took out a huge thing with a weird face, and smashed it to the ground with a bang.
This thing is pure white, square, and exquisitely shaped. There are many rare animals engraved on the surface. Through the material similar to colored glaze, you can vaguely see two remains placed inside.
That’s right, this thing is the coffin of the great Yuanchen Zhenjun, which was obtained from the ancient Xiu Yifu!
However, looking at the coffin in front of him, Qin Tian's eyes widened, and the expression on his face became more and more weird.
Probably because after careful detection, he suddenly discovered that this thing is the rumored "white chalcedony essence"?
Even the purity is frighteningly high!
In short, I have been looking for it for thousands of times.
Suddenly looking back, it is deep in my pocket!
At this moment, Qin Tian dared to swear to the sky.
I have never encountered such a dog-blood thing in my life!
Who would have thought that Yuanchen Zhenjun would be so arrogant that even the extremely rare composite spiritual materials were used to cast the coffin. It can be seen that this old thing doesn't know what it means to rest in peace!
In this case, don't blame the younger generation for being disrespectful!
At this moment, even Qin Tian couldn't help but feel lucky.
Fortunately, the professional qualities he has developed for a long time have made him make a wise move of digging three feet into the ground, otherwise wouldn't he have missed the opportunity in vain?
However, there are more surprises to come.
Perhaps inspired by the coffin, Qin Tian quickly repeated the trick and took out several tables that he had looted that day. As expected, after careful identification, he found that these tables were exactly the same, all made of "white chalcedony essence".
Faced with such a situation, Qin Tian was surprised, but couldn't help beating his chest and stamping his feet for a while, and sighed with regret:
"Damn it...! If I had known earlier, I would have lifted up the floor, and those beams, I would have seen that they were unusual............!"
