Upgrade! Level 7 Wooden Puppet Soldier!

Chapter 100 Upgrade! Level 7 Wooden Puppet Soldier!

In the blink of an eye, the 2000 Yin Soul Woods vanished.

As the Yin Soul Wood was rapidly consumed.

The level 4 wooden puppet that Shen Yi was holding down was rapidly repairing its damaged parts, and new materials were being forged into it as it flashed with dark light!

The patterns on the wooden puppet soldier became increasingly clear, faintly exuding a sense of heaviness.

Level 5 Wooden Puppet! Upgrade successful!

However, Shen Yi did not stop. He looked at the number of Yin Soul Wood in the collection column, which was fixed at 31416.

Keep upgrading!

As his strongest individual force at this stage, the wooden puppet soldiers are capable of unleashing countless amounts of Yin Soul Wood!

Invest 3000 pieces of Soul Wood!

The level 6 wooden golem has been successfully upgraded!

Upon reaching level 6, the wooden golem undergoes a new change in appearance, becoming quite robust in size.

The amount of Yin Soul Wood required to upgrade from level 6 to level 7 has reached 5000!

This level of investment is completely beyond what he could normally handle.

"Level 7, upgrade me!"

However, Shen Yi looked up at the sky and saw the moon hanging high in the night sky. His innate "Moon Worship Spirit" had already taken effect!

Now that he is blessed by the moonlight, all aspects of his physical condition have been greatly improved!

With a determined effort, I decided to continue upgrading!

A level 7 wooden golem can develop a third characteristic!

There's no reason to stop here.

He can spend 5000 Yin Soul Wood to upgrade the Town Yin Wooden House.

This time should be no problem either.

Even if all else fails, with the blessing of the "Moon Worshiping Spirit," his body can quickly recover under the moonlight.

With the investment of 5000 Yin Soul Wood!

boom!

The wooden puppet soldier reached level 7 and suddenly let out a roar.

A faint light emanated from its body, quickly enveloping its entire body. Several special patterns then appeared on its chest, waist, abdomen, and legs, eventually converging into its right hand and becoming one with the long sword!

Shen Yi's strength was rapidly depleting, his whole body was trembling, and he was soaked in sweat, looking as if he had been pulled out of the water.

The investment of 5000 Yin Soul Wood was still too much of a drain on him!

If it weren't for the blessing of the "Moon Worshiping Spirit", he probably wouldn't have been able to complete this upgrade at all.

After a while.

With its energy depletion ceased, the wooden golem finally completed its upgrade.

[Wooden Puppet Soldier - Level 7]

【Function: Hunting Monsters】

【Characteristics: Detect Enemy (White: Detects monsters within a 20-meter radius and attacks them), Obey Command (Green: Will obey the master's commands and can perform complex combat missions), Devour Evil (Green: Rare; killing monsters has a chance to devour evil energy, which can repair the user's own damage and can be used to unleash a spatial slash!)】

【Durability: 100/100】

The third characteristic of a level 7 wooden golem —

It has reached the green rare level!?

Shen Yi quickly browsed through the new attribute information of the wooden puppet soldier and was shocked.

The Spirit Arrow, which can harm second-tier spirits, only has the trait of being a green rare item!

"Absorb the evil energy, spatial slash!"

With such characteristics, the wooden golem probably already possesses the ability to damage second-tier monsters!

"Can we continue with the upgrade?"

The third trait of a level 7 wooden puppet soldier is already a rare green quality.

If the upgrade is successful, the quality of the new features will be unimaginable!

However, Shen Yi used a piece of Yin Soul Wood to check the materials needed to upgrade to level 8.

[Wooden Puppet Soldier - Level 7 (Upgrading - 1/7000)]

"hiss!"

It takes 7000 Soul Wood to advance to the next level!

Shen Yi gasped. The upgrade he had just undergone had severely damaged his energy, and his vision was blurred.

This time it will consume 7000 Yin Soul Wood. Even with the blessing of "Baiyue Body Spirit", he is afraid he will not be able to withstand it at all.

"However, judging from the amount of materials consumed, I estimate that my current amount of Yin Soul Wood will not be enough to allow this wooden puppet to complete its upgrade."

Shen Yi considered it for a moment.

It takes 7000 Yin Soul Wood to upgrade to level 8, and it will probably take at least 8,000 or 9,000 to upgrade to level 9.

Advancing from level 9 to a higher level requires an enormous amount of resources.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Yi decided to spend 8000 Yin Soul Wood to upgrade the other four wooden puppet soldiers to level 5.

Their durability was immediately restored to full, all damage was repaired, and their power was even greater than before.

Most importantly, after the upgrade, they finally stopped making creaking noises when walking.

However, the problem of heavy footsteps has not yet been resolved.

Shen Yi looked at the Yin Soul Wood in the collection column and saw that there were still 15416 left. He shook his head helplessly.

The Shadow Wood is still not banned!

He immediately thought of several other villages.

"When the time comes, I'll go to Pucao Village, raid a few Lantern Ghost lairs, and upgrade the wells, chicken coops, and vegetable gardens in my territory!"

At this time.

When Mo Guanhai and the others returned from outside, their eyes widened in surprise upon seeing the scene inside the courtyard.

They had only been gone for a short while, yet the five wooden puppet soldiers looked completely brand new.

And how could one of the wooden puppet soldiers have undergone such a drastic change?!

They looked up.

The level 7 wooden golem has reached a size of nearly two meters!

He was taller than Shen Yi, standing like a mecha.

Not to mention the others, who could only look up and examine the newly upgraded wooden puppet in front of them.

Compared to Mo Guanhai's shock, Shen Kun, Shen Yuan, and Guan Yue were more worried about Shen Yi's health.

"Ayi, don't push yourself too hard," Guan Yue said worriedly.

Seeing their reactions, Mo Guanhai realized that Shen Yi must have paid a heavy price to re-refine the five wooden puppet soldiers.

His expression was equally serious. "Ayi, you must not be impatient for quick success. You must know that the road ahead is long and arduous, and haste makes waste. You must not damage your own foundation."

Shen Yi enjoyed the moonlight as he repaired his body, and nodded at their concerned words.

"How's the situation outside?"

Just now, Mo Guanhai and his companions went outside to check on how the people in several villages were dealing with the spirits.

"The situation is currently very calm, with only low-level monsters wandering around, and no second-tier monsters have appeared."

"Brother, Village Chief Tang said he's willing to send someone to escort us back tomorrow."

Shen Kun said.

"It's not time to go back yet, let's see if we can quickly take down that lantern ghost's lair north of Yanling Village."

.

They have no say in the matter of the Blackwater Swamp.

"By the way, a master named Master Lin has come to town this time. He's said to have the ability to summon second-tier spirits. Those delicate-skinned fellows we encountered on the mountain today were brought here by Master Lin."

Shen Yuan began by mentioning something.

Guan Yue said, "This Master Lin is quite arrogant. I heard that the banquet organizers specially invited him, but he didn't give Village Chief Tang any face and refused outright."

"Then why did they come to Yanling Village to help?"

Shen Yi asked curiously.

Since they've adopted such a high stance, why are they willing to get involved in the affairs of Yanling Village and choose to come and help?

"I don't know. I heard that Village Chief Tang sought help in Jiangchuan Town without success, and finally found this Master Lin. I didn't expect him to actually agree to come."

After Guan Yue finished speaking, she added, "By the way, the little girl you rescued on the mountain today has a close relationship with Master Lin. Master Lin seems to dote on her a lot."

"With the combined efforts of these people, the problem of the Blackwater Swamp should not be difficult to solve."

Shen Yi pondered for a moment.

Perhaps after dealing with the second-tier monsters in the Blackwater Swamp in a few days, he will be able to take down the nearby Lantern Ghost's lair as well.

As for the materials for second-tier spirits, he didn't even dare to think about it.

Getting involved rashly might be more dangerous than beneficial.

"Go wash up and rest."

Shen Yi stood up.

Rock Ridge Village has abundant water resources, and most of their fields have not been polluted by the swamp monster.

When I arrived today, I could see from afar a hundred acres of fertile land behind the valley where many crops were planted.

Yanling Village has developed to its current scale, which is clearly due to its much more complete infrastructure in all aspects.

Soon, the five of them finished washing up and went back inside to sleep.

The night passed quickly.

The sky was just beginning to lighten on the second day.

Shen Yi and his group of five had already gotten up early.

They went outside to find Tang Jing and learned from him that no second-tier monsters had approached the village last night.

Several village chiefs at the Solidifying Yuan Realm went to check out the Blackwater Swamp before dawn.

They hurried to the wall, just as Tang Qiang and the others returned from outside.

Huang Han's expression was grave: "The situation is more serious than we imagined."

What's the current situation at Blackwater Swamp?

Li Jun frowned and asked.

Huang Han said in a deep voice, "The murderous aura inside is overwhelming, and the black fog is so thick that it cannot be dispersed. We have only approached two miles when we felt an indescribable sense of oppression."

"The monsters in the Blackwater Swamp are indeed frantically gathering evil energy. If we don't deal with it quickly, once it erupts, the monster tide will be terrifying beyond our imagination."

Tang Qiang's tone hardened. "The biggest problem now is that they are only focused on gathering their malevolent energy and show no signs of coming out to harm anyone. We have no way to attack them from here."

Li Jun nodded and pondered, "It seems we have to take the initiative."

"Master Lin, I'm afraid we'll have to trouble you to take action next."

The village chiefs all turned their gazes to a composed old man in a gray robe.

The old man had gray hair and beard, and a withered face, looking like he was about to die, but everyone could feel the terrifying aura constantly emanating from his body.

They are not to be underestimated.

Lin Song's expression remained as still as a statue. He glanced at the crowd and squeezed out a hoarse voice from his throat: "I can use the demon-summoning technique to lure out second-tier monsters, but it may attract more monsters at once."

"If you've made up your mind, prepare three portions of flesh and blood from second-tier spirits before nightfall tonight, and refine three sticks of demon-attracting incense to draw out the accumulated malevolent energy from the Blackwater Swamp."

"Given the current situation, we have no choice but to take the initiative."

Tang Qiang and the others looked solemn, exhaled, and their eyes quickly hardened.

"I will retrieve the materials related to the spirits and give them to Master Lin shortly!"

Lin Song gave a faint "hmm" and turned to leave.

However, the girl next to him suddenly tugged at his arm.

"Hmm?" Lin Song looked down in confusion.

Then he saw that his usually unruly and rebellious granddaughter was showing a rare shyness.

He quickly understood and turned to look at the five people who were hurrying towards them from a distance.

Their gazes fell on the boy in the lead.

"Is it him?" Lin Song asked casually.

"Grandpa, it's him." Lin Qingzhi said softly, her voice almost inaudible.

"Village Chief Shen, you've arrived. Did you get a good rest last night?"

Tang Qiang and the others looked at the handsome young man with warm smiles on their faces.

"Thank you for your concern, village chiefs. We slept quite well last night."

"That's good, Village Chief Shen. Have your meal first, and I'll have someone take you back later."

After Tang Qiang finished speaking, he waved to the person next to him, preparing to give instructions.

"Village Chief Tang, we plan to stay here for another two days. We're wondering if there are any second-tier monsters appearing near the Lantern Ghost's lair to the north?"

"There shouldn't be any nearby, but if you go about twelve miles further north, there might be a second-tier spirit, the Crimson Fire King."

Tang Qiang gave Shen Yi a detailed introduction to the distribution of spirits and monsters north of Yanling Village.

Shen Yi listened attentively.

He was constantly making plans in his mind.

According to Tang Qiang, they were almost certain to take down this lantern ghost's lair.

I'll go over there in a bit.

If all goes well, we can take down this lantern ghost's lair tonight and head back tomorrow.

"However, our Yanling Village has already given all the Yin Soul Wood in the warehouse to Village Chief Shen. Does Village Chief Shen still intend to go out and collect more Yin Soul Wood?"

Tang Qiang was quite surprised.

Although Yanling Village doesn't specifically collect Yin Soul Wood, over the years, their warehouse has accumulated at least 30,000 pieces of Yin Soul Wood.

Shen Yi has obtained enough Yin Soul Wood, so why is he still thinking of going to the Lantern Ghost's Nest?

"Yes, I probably need more Yin Soul Wood than Village Chief Tang thinks. If we could have someone take us to the Lantern Ghost's lair later, that would be even better."

Shen Yi nodded slightly and added a request.

"No problem. We've explored the entire area, and basically everyone knows where the spirits are located. After breakfast, I'll have someone take you there to have a look."

As Tang Qiang spoke, he planned to have everyone go back and enjoy the banquet from this morning.

"Master Lin, would you be willing to dine with us?"

Tang Qiang then lowered his tone and asked Lin Song.

Seeing how respectful he was to the old man, Shen Yi realized that this person was the "Master Lin" that everyone was talking about.

He glanced at it discreetly.

A slight chill ran through me.

This person gave him a dangerous feeling, like a venomous snake, cold and deadly.

"No need."

Lin Song waved his hand indifferently and quickly led Lin Qingzhi out.

"This Master Lin is really arrogant; he looks down on us completely."

Watching him walk away.

Niu Jun couldn't help but let out a soft groan.

Tang Qiang said solemnly, "Master Renlin is here to help us, so watch your attitude and don't offend him."

Niu Jun understood this principle; he was just grumbling.

"Let's all go eat."
