Situ Nan muttered a few words. He knew that Wang Lin was very worried, so he didnāt waste anymore time. āThere is still a bit of my soul essence left. I can help you teleport once, but only once, because if too much of my soul essence is used up, then Iāll disappear before you reach Spirit Transformation,ā he said.
With that, Situ Nan didnāt say anymore. Wang Lin suddenly felt a cold air enter his body. This cold air was overwhelming. It was many times stronger than the time he was teleported by the white light.
The cold air cycled through his body. Every part of his body that the air would pass through started to freeze. Wang Lin became like an ice sculpture and started to lose control of his attraction technique.
Zhou Peng noticed Wang Linās change, particularly when Wang Lin stopped chasing him, but he didnāt even dare to turn around. He began to move even faster.
When Wang Linās body turned into an ice sculpture, Situ Nan shouted, āKeep your mind calm. Iām about to teleport!ā
Suddenly, dark swirls cycled through Wang Linās body and, in the blink of an eye, his body disappeared.
Zhou Pengās divine sense had been locked onto Wang Lin this whole time. When Wang Lin suddenly disappeared, he was stunned. Before he could even understand what had just happened, a black dot appeared 5 meters in front of him. The black dots split up into smaller black dots and each one them turned into a black swirl.
At the same time, Wang Linās body suddenly appeared. The ice on his body quickly melted and he said, in a cold voice, āYou canāt run away!ā
Zhou Peng was shocked. His face became pale. He clenched his teeth and spat out a mouthful of green light. This green light grew until it became a giant python. He bit the tip of his tongue and spat out some blood. That blood turned into a bell. He rang the bell and the python grew even larger. Then, it swiped its tail at Wang Lin.
Situ Na said, with a lazy voice, āBrat, there is still a bit of my power in your body. It would be a waste not to use it. Iām going to borrow your body and show you one of my famous techniques.ā
With that, blue lights appeared from Wang Linās body, forming a blue ball of light before him.
The moment the ball appeared, the sky darkened and a destructive force appeared. With a boom, the ball broke and sent out waves of destructive force.
When the wave touched the pythonās tail, the ice traveled all the way to its head. The python fell to the ground, frozen solid.
Zhou Peng coughed out a mouthful of blood because of his connection with the python, but just as he coughed out the blood, the blood froze into red droplets. Then, Zhou Pengās body also slowly froze, until he became an ice sculpture.
Situ Nan proudly said, āIt is unfortunate that there are no more people. This technique of mine works best when there is a lot of people. Hey kid, this is the power of the Underworld Ascension Method. Can you see how strong the cold energy of this technique is?ā
Wang Linās body moved. He caught Zhou Pengās frozen body. Without stopping, he rushed away from the Heng Yue Mountain.
After finding an isolated place, he placed Zhou Pengās frozen body to the side and asked Situ Nan, āIs Zhou Peng already dead?ā
Situ Na slowly said, āThis little baby is not dead yet, but he is close. If you want him to die faster, you can just break the ice, then he will die for sure.ā
Wang Linās eyes lit up. After pondering for a while, he said, āBefore, you said you would teach me a puppet technique. Teach me that technique now.ā
Situ Nan let out a laugh. He was very happy with how things were turning out. He hadnāt told Wang Lin what the puppet technique was like or where it was from. Actually, this puppet technique was a demonic technique. He thought that Wang Lin was lacking killing intent. With his lack of killing intent, even if Wang Lin had ten lives, it wouldnāt be enough to survive in the cultivation world. Situ Nan had been trying very hard Ā to change Wang Linās nature and it seemed he was finally having some success.
Situ Nan was very happy. āThis puppet technique must be performed by you. Iāll tell you how itās done once you find a secluded cave,ā he happily said.
Wang Lin grabbed Zhou Peng. He searched around until he found a cave and went inside.
Situ Nan slowly said, āIāll release the ice now. Zhou Peng is in a near death state. You must open up his body, take out his inner organs, and start refining them.ā
Wang Lin was stunned. He hesitated for a bit, then said, āTake out his inner organs and refine them? Thisā¦ā
Situ Na secretly laughed and said, āThis is a necessary step for making puppets. If you canāt do it, then I canāt help you.ā He secretly thought, āBrat, you have never seen blood, so how will you ever be bloodthirsty? This puppet technique is actually not this complicated, but this is a good opportunity to open your eyes a bit. Kid, you will definitely be my demon sectās member. You canāt escape it!ā
While thinking that, Situ Nan quickly shouted, āIām going to remove the ice. You have half an hour, so donāt waste any time. Think about what he was planning to do to your parents.ā
With that, the ice surrounding Zhou Peng quickly melted and turned into blue light. The blue light returned to the heaven defying bead.
Wang Lin hesitated for a while. He thought that if he didnāt solve this problem now, there will definitely be more problems in the future. He clenched his teeth and waved his hand over Zhou Pengās body to cut it open. The strange thing was that there was no blood dripping out.
While suppressing his sense of nausea, Wang Lin followed the directions Situ Nan gave him. He was forming different seals with his hands as his divine sense focused on the task. This half an hour felt like a whole year. When Situ Nan proudly said it was over, Wang Lin couldnāt help but rush out of the cave and puke.
Situ Na laughed. āGood. This first step is over. Now, this second step is the most important step. You must surround his body with your divine sense and refine it for 3 days and 3 nights. Once you do that, the puppet can be considered complete. You will need to perform some techniques during those 3 days. Iāll explain them one by one, so listen carefully.ā
Wang Linās face was pale as he bitterly nodded. He took a deep breath and returned to the cave.
