Chapter 107: Creating Puppets! (1)
Leo didn't immediately start creating puppets, instead, he began taking out materials/items that he accumulated over time within his inventory.
Placing it on the sculpted table that the skeletons created in the past as he began studying them one by one... From the teeth of the canines to the nails and feathers of Soul-eating birds, instantly filling the table with decaying skeletons and corpses of different kinds of beasts.
Making the place quite sinister, as Leo's body seems to release a Mad aura akin to a mad scientist...
"Now what kind of puppet should I create?"
Leo thought unhurriedly, taking out hundreds of Earth's Gold within his inventory before placing it in one of the bottles... It would become the main battery of his puppets, the main source where they get their energy!
Moreover, he also needs to sculpt it with inscriptions! Creating an Order within the puppet's mind that they will follow!
However, in able to do that, he first needed the ability of the Qi/Mana thread! As for how it works, Leo already had an idea within him.
Creating inscriptions using Qi threads is quite similar to how Formation masters create their formations! The only difference is that the formation is countless times larger than the inscription is.
In addition to that, Formation Master also uses the environment to their advantage!
Taking one of the Earth's Gold on the bottle.
Leo took a deep long breath, drinking the tea that he had brewed earlier using Moon Leaves as he began manipulating the Qi within his body, summoning it to his pointed finger before thinning it into threads...
At the same time, he ensured the durability of the Qi... Ensuring that it could penetrate through solid objects, unhindered.
Unfortunately, with his current control of Qi. It only allows him to thin the Qi with a size comparable to 25 stands of hairs coiling to each other.
"It's still far away from the satisfactory set by the system, but it would and should work for creating a basic puppet!"
Leo calmly thought, exhaling turbid air within as he began carving the Earth Gold in his hand... His gray eyes never wavered as he wholly focused on carving inscriptions, replaying the puppetry knowledge within his mind as he slowly followed the step carefully.
Soon, minutes silently passed by.
The cold breeze again careless the sweating body of Leo as he manipulated the Qi thread to a great degree... slowly sculpting it to his desires and orders...
The Earth's Gold on the other hand, under the nonstop penetration of his Qi thread begins to slowly transform... The beauty within it slowly unfolds as it radiates with weak fluctuation of aura.
...
Puff~ Finally it's done!
Leo exclaimed as he inspected the oval (earth gold) in his hand in interest, revealing a proud expression upon finally finishing inscribing it!
"Next should be creating the puppet's body!"
Leo happily thought as he drank the tea beside him in one gulf. Sitting down on the ground Leo unhurriedly closed his eyes, circulating his cultivation technique to recover the Qi that he spent/lost earlier...

As Leo was peacefully creating puppets within his little territory. Far away, toward the town, chaos was secretly brewing...
The number of beasts that were eyeing the town began to spike in numbers, slowly accumulating their strength within the depths of the forest as they were waiting for the opportunity to strike...
Although the beasts were still lacking the Core Formation realm in their mids, the number of late-to-peak foundation beasts already entered more than 100, enough to threaten the safety of the town.
Moreover, it's worth mentioning that the corpses found in the town secretly reach a staggering number of 20! Making people afraid of going outside their houses!
In addition to that, the herbs and fruits continue mysteriously disappearing one by one, day by day...
A problem within the exterior and interior, intensifying the unease within their mind.

Opening his eyes, Leo exhaled a turbid air within him, checking his character panel only to see that his Qi already recovered by half.
Unhurriedly standing up, Leo began stretching his muscles which became his hobby after finishing a long time of sitting in cultivation.
"Now it's time to make the body of a puppet!"
Leo excitedly thought, clearly couldn't wait to create his first-ever puppet.
It could be said that so far, the creation of his first puppet was going smoothly, making him believe that making a puppet is much easier than creating a process potion.
Now, I could begin stitching up materials within the puppet, making it ideal for my mind and preferences...
Using his Qi thread, Leo began to connect countless materials into one, slowly stitching it up using his Qi... After that, Leo created or to be exact connected the Earth Gold that he inscribed earlier toward the Qi thread within the puppet...
If he didn't connect the Qi thread toward the Earth Gold in the middle of creating the puppet, the Qi thread that was connecting all materials into one would slowly vanish without the support of the battery (Earth Gold).
Huff~
After using his Qi thread for two long hours, Leo finally retracted his pointed finger from the puppet in front of him, heaving a heavy sigh of relief...
"This... I couldn't believe it, I actually succeeded on my first try!"
Leo revealed a bright smile on his face as he stared at the black crow in front of him in happiness, never expecting that he would be able to do it on his first try.
Ding!
As he was about to cast a "Soul Scan" toward the crow puppet, the familiar sound of metal hitting metal echoed within his consciousness, widening Leo's smile as the expected notification of the system finally appeared.
"This is it, the reward for the first time of creating a puppet!" Leo thought in anticipation as he began reading the notification with great excitement.
Ding!
