Jiangkou City, since it belongs to Baihuan territory, naturally has Baihuan office.

In the courtyard that received Baihuan's patrolling disciples, Zhang Tianliu settled down peacefully. He did not go out for several days and did not see the local dignitaries who came to visit him.

It inevitably gives people the feeling of an arrogant foreigner.

If Zhang Tianliu cares, then he is not Zhang Tianliu.

Making others unhappy makes him happy.

Luo Weigong came to Jiangkou on the fourth day after Zhang Tianliu retreated to Jiangkou City.

He didn't care that his manor was occupied by the Pei family. Now it was difficult for the Baihuan Sect to allocate manpower to help. If he held on, it would only increase casualties, which would be harmful to Baihuan's strategy.

Retreating to Jiangkou is also a move he has already considered, and his property is basically here.

Therefore, Zhang Tianliu couldn't let go of the favors, so he personally returned visits one by one, and did not forget to say good things to Elder Zhang San. He was already full of vulgarity, and it was difficult to pick up the heart of the Tao.

Also returning with Luo Weigong were Yi Zongxu and nine other Baihuan disciples.

Luo Village is gone, but their mission is not over yet. The Jiangkou cannot be lost. If this place is gone, Daze Lake will be controlled by the enemy, and it will be difficult to save the city around the lake.

This loss is huge.

"Elder, aren't you going out today?" Ling Tingting has been very concerned about Zhang Tianliu recently, mainly because she can't untie Zhang Tianliu's metal block!

Yi Zongxu said that a trace of true energy can activate it.

She tried to no avail.

What's even weirder is that Yi Zongxu tried it but it still didn't work. It seemed to be a disposable puppet, but anyone can be sure that it was not a one-time use.

Yan Qingyao shook her head.

In the two days since she came back, she hasn't seen anyone from Zhang Tianliu.

Ling Tingting pursed her lips in disappointment.

Another half month passed. When Ling Tingting came to ask questions every day, she did not see Senior Sister Yan. Instead, she directly saw Elder Zhang San sitting in the hall drinking tea. A boy in front of him was pointing at a box of low-level materials.

The mouth is like a river.

Ling Tingting ran over happily and said respectfully: "Meet Elder Zhang."

Zhang Tianliu put down his tea cup, glanced at her, nodded, handed the boy a mustard seed charm, and said: "Continue collecting, be sure to send me all the low-level materials you can purchase."

"Okay, let's go and do it now." After taking the mustard seed charm, the boy didn't even look at whether there were enough spirit beads inside, and left happily.

"Elder Zhang, um, this is your thing..." Ling Tingting took out the metal block with a very troubled expression.

Zhang Tianliu stretched out his hand and directly touched the metal block on Ling Tingting's palm. He immediately saw that the metal block dissolved like a liquid and melted into Zhang Tianliu's fingers.

Ling Tingting's eyes widened in disbelief.

How could there be such a magical puppet?

It’s not that there are no puppets that are as changeable as water, but the fighting style is definitely different from before!

Suddenly there was a "pop", Ling Tingting knelt down and said: "Please also ask Elder Zhang to accept me as his disciple and teach me how to refine the puppet."

Zhang Tianliu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "If you want to refine this thing, it will be difficult to do without thousands of years of hard work. I advise you to give up."

Unexpectedly, Ling Tingting was not surprised but overjoyed, and said excitedly: "You can refine it after a thousand years of study! That's great, please, Elder Zhang, please teach me!"

The speed at which he kicked his nose and face made Zhang Tianliu speechless.

After a second thought, he smiled again, took out a piece of paper, and with a wave of his hand, a diagram of a talisman array was drawn on the paper.

"You have only seven days to make it according to the diagram. The final product must be the size of a grain of rice. You can also ask someone to help you. I only look at the final result. I will teach you if I can get it."

Ling Tingting took the picture respectfully, glanced at it, and said confidently: "Disciple will live up to the master's trust."

"Let's talk about it later." Zhang Tianliu stood up, took away a box of materials and walked towards the cabinet.

As soon as Ling Tingting went out, she saw her senior brothers gathered around, asking her how she was going to become a disciple.

Ling Tingting smiled and said: "Master has accepted me. From now on, everyone's puppet will be on me."

Yi Zongxu frowned, feeling incredible.

From his understanding, Elder Zhang San is not such a person.

He should be the kind of person for whom women will only delay his spiritual practice!

There is no need for women, let alone disciples.

"Congratulations to Junior Sister Ling. You are so lucky to be able to learn from Elder Zhang San." Everyone said with envy.

Regarding the fact that the puppets made by Elder Zhang San are very powerful, everyone tacitly agrees. After all, the more people know about it, the more difficult it will be for Ling Tingting to become a disciple.

As for them, it is of course impossible for them to become apprentices. Firstly, they do not want to practice weapon refining. Secondly, there is a teaching material, Senior Sister Yan Qingyao. She has followed Elder Zhang San for a long time, but she has learned nothing. It can be seen that Elder Zhang San

There is no way to teach the secrets of unskillful exercises.

But if Ling Tingting succeeds, having a well-connected puppet master will definitely help her on her path of cultivation.

Their relationship has been elevated from being from the same sect to being a life-and-death acquaintance. This friendship may benefit them throughout their lives.

Ling Tingting said goodbye to her senior brothers, went to purchase a bunch of low-level materials according to the diagram, and then locked herself in the room to refine them carefully.

At the beginning, the rune tool she refined was the size of a palm. After two days, it shrank to the size of a finger. However, for three consecutive days, it was stuck at the size of a soybean and it was difficult to make progress.

"Oh, what should I do if there are only two days left?" Ling Tingting was anxious, her previous confidence no longer existed.

Her method of refining materials has reached its extreme, and she cannot make a breakthrough in a short time. However, she feels that even if she makes a breakthrough, the purity of the material is high, and the dosage can only be reduced by half. Half a soybean is still not enough to meet Elder Zhang San's rice requirements.

"I really don't know what the use is of refining such a small product." Ling Tingting couldn't help complaining, but she was quickly stunned again.

She found that she had been ignoring an important question, what was this rune device used for?

I looked at the array map carefully and took out the rune books I purchased to compare. After understanding the purpose of the runes, I still don’t know the overall function.

Generally, after the refining is successful, it will be activated to see if the spiritual power is flowing smoothly. She is no exception, but only a very small amount of infuriating energy is injected. After finding signs of spiritual power running, she is busy making improvements and throws the finished product aside.

Now she has it back, and there are more than a dozen versions ranging from palm size to soybean size.

Activate the true energy to continuously inject into the rune devices, and then you will see more than a dozen rune devices appearing in an array at the same time. Due to the difference in size, the arrays may be larger or smaller.

"This... this seems to be a sword formation, right?" Ling Tingting couldn't be sure.

She concentrated on activating the sword array of a rune weapon, and saw a fine sword light from the sword array penetrated the beam above her head. It did not cause the house to collapse, but only a pinhole appeared in the beam and the tile roof above.

"Eh!" Ling Tingting didn't care about the hole penetrated by the sword light, but was interested in the missing part of the rune device's power.

This lack was quickly noticed by Ling Tingting because it was not the whole, but a decrease in the spiritual power of one attribute.

Ling Tingting is also familiar with rune weapons. Many puppets have them. However, after most rune weapons activate their power, the spiritual power consumed is integral. If it is only a part, it means that it is not an offensive rune weapon. Even if it needs to restrain the opponent's attributes, the lost

It is also a piece of a set of rune tools, rather than a part of a set.

Attack runes have a set of attributes to maintain a balanced operation.

It can be seen that this is a special-purpose rune device.

So this thing that looks like a sword array should not be used to hurt the enemy, so how should it be used?

Ling Tingting fell into thinking.

It took her half a day to figure out the use after dozens of attempts.

It’s actually the transmission of spiritual power!

Ling Tingting became even more excited when she thought of the metal puppet absorbing the magic power of the Pei family monks and converting it to resist the magic.

As a result, half a day passed, and only the last day was left.

"So that's it, I'm really stupid. The real purpose of this rune device is to purify materials. After obtaining the pure spiritual power of this material, you can activate the sword array to carve smaller rune array patterns. Only then can you create something as small as a grain of rice. No, even bigger.
