Chapter 182 Performance Puppeti

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Mobai worked hard chopping logs until he finally ended the Red Sun Wood business at Bud Hall.

Yu Lian, Luo Yixiu, and Luo Yixuan each contributed 100 lower-grade Spirit Stones, while from Liu Wenbo, he only received the market price, netting him 50 Spirit Stones.

Of these, too Spirit Stones were used to purchase Yuan Chiye’s storage bag. Apart from what Chen Mobai already had, he now totted up a considerable sum of 280 Spirit Stones.

After getting in good stead with Yuan Chiye, Chen Mobai handed over his share of Red Sun Wood, and immediately took two and a half months off to concentrate on the Dance Tool Dao Academy, as the pace of learning was becoming hard to keep up with.

Chen Mobai chose “Talismanic Runes” and “Puppetry” as his major courses. He chose to audit “Extraction of Talisman Ink and Pigment”, “Calligraphy” “Design and Manufacture of Spiritual Instruments and Automation”, and ’ “Agricultural Studies”.

Of these, “Calligraphy” is the basis for learning Talismanic Runes; if you want to major in Talismanic Runes, this elective must be picked up.

“Extraction of Talisman Ink and Pigment” was chosen as Chen Mobai considered the need for special talismanic ink in Tianhe Realm to depict talismanic runes, hence, he felt the need to learn this subject.

“Design and Manufacture of Spiritual Instruments and Automation” has the same basic requirements as “Calligraphy”; it’s a necessity when majoring in “Puppetry”.

As for “Agricultural Studies”, Chen Mobai initially didn’t plan on taking it. After all, with two majors and three electives, as long as all of them are passed, it amounts to 12 credits.

Even if an elective is failed, there would still be 10 credits, allowing one to pass the end-of-term assessment.

But the issue is all 13 people in the Divinity Transformation class had selected a minimum of two majors and four electives.

The most extreme one declared three majors and six electives, and only because first-year students are only allowed to declare that many, otherwise, he would have gone for even more.

And it’s not about showing off by declaring so many electives; they genuinely have the capability.

All those who can get into the Dance Tool Dao Academy are at least top students, and those who choose Divinity Transformation are considered the best among the best, they’re all study gods.

In order to fit in, Chen Mobai could only hold back his tears and select “Agricultural Studies”, an elective that piqued his interest.

Originally, he was planning to wait until the second academic year to take this elective; in future, if spare time allows, he would extend his studies to the major of “Spirit Plant”.

One day, he was attending the “Puppetry” class.

On the lecture podium, the silver-haired old man, Che Yucheng, was narrating about the origin of the formless puppets and the Method Acting Puppets.

As everyone has distinct physical constitutions and talents, the same cultivation technique would yield diverse subtle variations when adopted by different people. To make the technique perfectly adapt to oneself, adjustments would be needed according to personal characteristics.

However, the ones who can do this are at least Realm Masters at the Golden Core Realm stage.

As Realm Masters are rare, it’s impossible for them to customize cultivation techniques for each Qj Practitioner.

But if it’s for their own offspring or close relatives, Realm Masters occasionally do this.???????????????????????????????? y

During the process of personalizing a cultivation technique for his daughter, a puppet master had a sudden burst of inspiration and created a “Method Acting Puppet”.?? 6

The puppet master made a puppet identical to his daughter’s physical data, ran the cultivation technique on it, and through continuous trial and error adjustments were made repeatedly, ultimately, the perfect Qi Cultivation technique best suited to his daughter was created.

Inspired by the Method Acting Puppet, the following generations further innovated to create the Formless Puppet, simulating the Foundation Establishment process.

Upon this, functionalities like simulating cultivation, breaking through realms, and running cultivation techniques were added.

Further, after the Foundation Establishment phase, a function to simulate the Golden Core Realm was reserved in the Formless Puppet.

However, due to the limitations posed by the lack of Spirit Stones, this has not developed to that stage yet.

But yet, the Formless Puppet which has attained this much has been hailed as the crowning achievement of Puppetry Technique.

Halfway through listening, Chen Mobai’s mind was just filled with the idea of “Method Acting Puppets”.

He recently started cultivating the Longevity Technique, but due to the lack of conditions on this side from the Earth Star, the transition to the new technique was difficult, and he had not even managed to make a start. This led Chen Mobai to contemplate dropping the Two-phased Techniques, focusing solely on Pure Yang Scroll.

However, the progress of Pure Yang Scroll was also slow, which caused him great vexation.

After class, Chen Mobai immediately rushed over to Che Yucheng to inquire if there were “Method Acting Puppets” that he could apply for use in the academy.

“These are required to be custom-made; you can’t use the Method Acting Puppets in the academy.”

Hearing this, Chen Mobai’s face was filled with disappointment.

“However, I have a student who has a few replicas of the Formless Puppet on hand, which also wield the function of a Method Acting Puppet; as long as your body model data is inputted into it, the effect would be almost similar to a Method Acting Puppet.”

Che Yucheng gave Chen Mobai a phone number and advised him to get in contact himself.

This senior’s name was Chai Lun!

He was a year eight student from the Dance Tool Dao Academy. Because the creation and maintaining of puppets require a considerable investment, he opened an online shop to sell his own work and work from fellow puppetry major students.

As the Formless Puppet was considered as the crowning achievement of Puppetry Study, it became the graduation challenge for many students in Puppetry Studies.

Chai Lun had three replicas bequeathed by graduates.

Although not as effective as the original Formless Puppets, they were more than adequate as Method Acting Puppets.

Chen Mobai was very interested.

He then asked about the price.

Chai Lun said they could either be rented, being rather affordable at 10,000

Good Deed Points a use, or bought outright.

The price for outright purchase was high, indeed; it was a whopping 500,000 Good Deed Points.

As Chen Mobai was unsure of how effectively these replicas worked compared to the Formless Puppets, he wanted to have a look in person, preferably with a trial. f𝐫eewe𝚋nove𝗹.𝗰o𝚖

Chai Lun naturally welcomed this.

He rented a warehouse outside the academy as a workshop and happened to be heading over that day.

upon hearing this, Chen Mobai immediately asked him for the address.

“You seem to be quite in a hurry.”

Chai Lun, a burly giant, saw Chen Mobai waiting at the entrance to the warehouse when he arrived.

“I have many queries during my recent cultivation process. The slow progress

in transitioning to Pure Yang Scroll also weighs on my mind.”

Chen Mobai looked helpless, but it was true.

Hearing that he had chosen to cultivate Pure Yang Scroll, Chai Lun gave him a thumbs up in admiration.

“I have three here, two are for refining fire attribute cultivation techniques, one is for refining wood attribute cultivation techniques. The prices are all the same. I presume you need one for fire techniques?”

After entering the warehouse, Chai Lun pointed towards three life-sized cyclopean puppets hanging on the wail.

“Huh, why is there only one set of number wheels?”

Chen Mobai remembered that the Formless Puppet had digital rotary switches in both its left and right eyes.

“These three graduates, despite being naturally talented, still can’t compare to Master Che. That they’ve been able to replicate to this extent is already quite commendable.”

Chai Lun explained with a wry smile when he heard Chen Mobai’s question.

The number wheel in the left eye of the Formless Puppet can simulate the cultivation of nine levels of Qi Cultivation, and the right eye wheel represents the Foundation Establishment stage.

Originally, there should also be a number wheel on the forehead that represents the Golden Core Realm.

However, here in the Daoist Academy, due to the lack of enough Spirit Stones as a power source, it’s not possible to experiment with the function of the Formless Puppet theoretically simulating the Golden Core stage, and cultivation thereafter..
