My Simulated Road to Immortality-Chapter 1261 - 113 The Emperor Receives Destiny
Trapped, Li Ping showed no signs of panic.
These puppets were all driven by the source energy refined and extracted through the Vital Element Art of the Myriad Beings.
The Qi Zhi Ling Yuan Gong, currently practiced by the people of the Sacred Dynasty Daqi, was an elevated version of the Vital Element Art of the Myriad Beings.
With just one look, he could discern how the source energy influenced the puppets, and the Web of Gold Source Force within Li Ping emitted waves of invisible vibrations.
The purity of his energy had nearly reached the level of the Essence of Source Power, naturally suppressing the puppets manipulated by the craftsman.
In a single breath, the dozens of fiercely staring puppets in the secret room had become disheveled and unsteady, unable to stand.
Including the female Shangguan puppet.
The artisan’s face suddenly turned unsightly. Having dealt with source energy for most of his life, how could he fail to recognize the mysterious figure’s method of influencing the puppets?
He had already given up on the idea of fighting to the end and began to plan how to escape, or even considered abandoning his body to be reborn from a backup of his memory.
Li Ping, watching the fluctuating expressions on the craftsman’s face, had naturally seen through his inner thoughts.
Without hurry, he revealed the hiding places of several of the craftsman’s memory backups, one by one.
The craftsman was greatly shaken, unable to hide his shock anymore.
"Who on earth are you?" his voice cracked from fear.
Unable to fight, unable to escape.
Since his escape to Xuan Huang World, the craftsman had never felt so desperate.
"Craftsman, do not misunderstand, I am here to offer you a chance at creation," Li Ping said slowly.
But his slightly somber tone, coupled with his indiscernible face, was utterly unconvincing.
The craftsman, of course, did not believe him, his inner panic growing even more intense.
Because the name "craftsman" had never been mentioned to anyone else in Xuan Huang World.
The world only knew him as the mysterious Sect Master of the Elemental Spirit Sect.
Now, there appeared someone who could reveal his past with a single comment, someone who knew him like the back of his hand—a faceless mysterious person!
The craftsman even began to wonder if there were other survivors from Celestial Mechanism World besides him.
For a moment, the craftsman was in utter disorder. But all his chaotic thoughts disappeared when Li Ping raised a dazzling golden radiance in his hand.
"Source Power... Essence?!"
"How is this possible!"
The craftsman exclaimed again, his face full of disbelief.
As he was about to examine it closely, the golden orb had already been put away by Li Ping.
"Aren’t you seeking the Essence of Source Power in vain? I can teach you," said Li Ping, his words striking the craftsman once again.
"Do you not wish to recreate the Immortal Level Puppet Ancestor? I can help you with that too," Li Ping continued, speaking deliberately.
By then, the craftsman had been so shocked he had become numb, not at all surprised to learn that Li Ping knew of the Ancestor’s existence.
While feeling utterly ludicrous, a glimmer of hope also began to surface in his heart.
What if what the other party said was true?
"What are your conditions?" the craftsman asked directly.
Li Ping laughed lightly: "Seeing is believing. Please follow me first, fellow Daoist."
The craftsman followed Li Ping as they traveled east from Jiushan Province, arriving deep in the Misthaven Ocean.
Near a seabed volcano.
```
"Hmm?"
```
The Artisan gazed intently at the terrain, faintly perceiving that within the Earth Pulse Fire below, there seemed to be a living being in slumber.
And Li Ping’s following words confirmed his speculation.
"A puppet with full self-awareness?" The Artisan was somewhat skeptical.
"It’s not a direct creation of a puppet but a transformation through a mysterious method into a puppet form. It has absorbed the power of ley lines for thousands of years, yet it still has not completed its thorough metamorphosis. If we rashly awaken it, I’m afraid it might lead to an innate deficiency in the puppet’s body. I’ve brought you here to see if you have any way to help," Li Ping said indifferently.
"Shape-shifting?" The Artisan chewed over the meaning of these words.
Then, his eyes emitted a golden light, sweeping over the sprawling ley lines below.
After a long while, the golden light faded, and the Artisan nodded, "The puppet below, with the help of Terrestrial Flame Power, has indeed expanded its strength to an extent that was originally unattainable. However, the intensity of the Terrestrial Flame is limited after all. Even if it continues to absorb for another thousand years, its strength is destined to only reach the peak of God Transformation. Advancing any further would be impossible."
"And this Terrestrial Flame array was laid out by it before it fell into slumber. After such a long time, the two have already shown signs of merging into one. If we easily try to modify it, it might also awaken it."
"Unless..."
The Craftsman fell into thought for a moment before speaking with contemplation, "Unless the very Terrestrial Flame that tempered the puppet itself changes."
"You know, the Xuanhuang Heaven Path is incredibly enigmatic, often accompanied by drastic changes in Heaven and Earth. And the Earth Fire is a manifestation of the power of Heavenly Dao Laws..."
"However, such an opportunity is something that can be encountered but not sought after," the Craftsman said honestly.
Li Ping spoke slowly, "I understand."
"Worthy of being a descendent of the Celestial Mechanism World. My original plan was to use natural treasures to transform and elevate the Terrestrial Flame Genesis Array. But now that I think about it, your suggestion is better. To borrow the Power of Heaven and Earth, to recreate Qiankun..."
The Craftsman was momentarily taken aback, then he repeated emphatically, "I said, this opportunity is something that can be encountered but not sought after."
"Is that so?" Li Ping smiled wryly.
"My friend, watch my technique."
After making such bold pronouncements, Li Ping closed his eyes and stood still in place.
The Craftsman thought the other party was accumulating energy to release some Divine Technique and watched attentively.
However, after waiting for almost half a day, there was no movement of wind or grass.
If it weren’t for the faint presence of Essence of Source Power still locking on to him, the Craftsman might have thought about seizing the opportunity to slip away.
But the situation was pressing, and with the other party not speaking, he could only continue to wait with him.
This wait lasted for nearly half a month.
It was only because the Craftsman was a Refining Implement Grandmaster with an extraordinary temperament that he could barely persevere.
And in a place invisible to the Craftsman, within the Sacred Dynasty Daqi Miniature World of the Holy Dynasty,
Those captured and produced by the Flesh and Blood Factory, the numerous people of You Clan, began to pray anew to the Ocean of Darkness.
Perhaps because they were naturally created to provide power to the Ocean of Darkness,
Almost without much instruction, the efficiency of their prayers was several times more effective than praying to the Faceless Saint Emperor.
The cumulative, subtle influence began to take effect in the Xuanhuang World.
And the Great Enthroned Faceless Saint Emperor, standing tall amidst the Misthaven Ocean bed, also silently sensed these shifting energies between Heaven and Earth.
Certain events didn’t happen overnight but rather gradually accumulated.
Half a month later, when Li Ping felt this accumulation had finally surpassed a certain threshold...
"Distorting Heaven and Earth Reason!"

The Faceless Saint Emperor murmured softly, his towering figure pointed gently towards the sprawling Earth Pulse Fire below.
It seemed like a frivolous gesture, yet a moment later, the Craftsman, who had been observing all along, was suddenly stricken with astonishment!
