Soul Dominator of the Devouring Star

Chapter 37 Flesh and Blood Puppets

"call--"

"The essence of flesh and blood condensed from a Beast General-level monster is much stronger than that of a Beast Soldier-level monster."

After fully absorbing the flesh and blood of a Beast General-level being and evolving, my strength should increase by about 400-500 kg in a day.

Engaging in intense combat, causing the blood to boil and accelerating absorption, can make the process even faster!

After killing all the thousands of monsters on the street, Qin Ming also felt his body slowly improving as he absorbed the essence of flesh and blood.

After a long while, Qin Ming looked into the distance.

"According to military intelligence, a high-level lord-class monster, the King Kong Ape, is entrenched in the core area ahead. Avoid it for now!"

Before setting off on the hunt, Qin Ming naturally gathered enough intelligence.

This high-level lord-class monster force alone has three ape-type lord-class monsters under its command, as well as a large number of beast generals and beast soldiers.

Although he could fly and was protected by the Black God Suit, it was still quite dangerous.

"Go hunt in other places first, and then take it down once you've improved your strength."

Qin Ming glanced at the map on the communicator on his wrist.

City 003 is full of monsters; there's no need to put all your eggs in one basket.

brush!

After several leaps, Qin Ming soared into the air and shot off in another direction.

As for the now desolate neighborhood behind them, given the density of Monster 003 and the roaming nature of a large number of monsters, the number would increase within a few days at most, and no one would notice anything unusual.

A moment later, Qin Ming landed on a building.

"The monsters here are already very strong, with quite a few high-level beast generals appearing, and there seem to be other martial artists active here as well."

Qin Ming's consciousness seemed to float in the sky, seeing extremely distant places, and it was as if he had passed through the obstruction of buildings and saw the monsters entrenched within them.

This is a function that Qin Ming developed while exploring the Myriad Soul Banner.

He discovered that he could use the Myriad Soul Banner to attach a wisp of his consciousness to the soul of a monster, allowing him to observe everything around him from the monster's perspective.

They even simultaneously dispersed their consciousness into the multi-headed monster's soul body, forming a network of vision.

Instead of limiting ourselves to letting the monster's soul investigate autonomously.

This is an excellent skill for reconnaissance and even combat.

"The Banner of Ten Thousand Souls is still too mysterious to me. At present, I only use it to absorb monster souls and corpses to strengthen myself, or to use monster souls to attack directly or by possessing them."

There are still many features that haven't been developed yet.

With that thought in mind, Qin Ming leaped onto the balcony of the high-rise building below and began searching for and hunting the monsters within.

Inside this building lives a tiger-cat of the rank of a high-level beast general.

The tiger-cat is not very big; after all, it is just a cat-like monster, and even a high-level beast general is only the size of a calf.

Despite its small size, the tiger-cat is extremely ferocious, with incredibly fast reflexes and agility, making it a monster suited for assassination.

The strength of a tiger cat can be easily determined by its tail.

One-tailed high-level beast soldier, two-tailed low-level beast general, three-tailed intermediate-level beast general, and so on. When it reaches eight tails, it is already a king-level monster!

And this one has four tails.

"Let's use this tiger-cat to experiment with how to create a flesh and blood puppet!"

With a thought, Qin Ming unleashed a flurry of throwing knives from all directions at incredible speed, instantly killing the tiger-cat hiding at the corner of the stairs.

Clearly, the tiger cat had spotted Qin Ming on the rooftop and was attempting to ambush him.

Unfortunately, this kind of sneak attack could be detected in advance by any mentalist, let alone Qin Ming.

brush!

Upon landing in front of the tiger cat's corpse, with a thought, it absorbed the tiger cat's corpse and soul into the Myriad Souls Banner.

Unlike usual, this corpse was not quickly decomposed, but instead fell into a blood-red lake composed of flesh and blood essence within the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

The blood-red lake wasn't large, only about five meters in diameter.

After hunting down over a thousand monsters, half of them were absorbed by the Myriad Soul Banner itself, while the other part was left behind by Qin Ming and transformed into this flesh and blood boulder.

Noisy!Noisy!Noisy!

With a piercing sound, a large amount of blood essence surged into the tiger cat's corpse, and its originally spotted fur quickly turned bright red. The body pierced by the throwing knife was also rapidly repaired.

In just a moment, the fatal wound disappeared.

"Um?"

Suddenly, Qin Ming revealed a look of joy. As he refined the body, he seemed to be able to vaguely sense a body, and this sense was rapidly increasing.

This feeling is completely different from controlling the soul of a monster.

"So clear? You can even see the muscle tissue and cellular structure inside the ocelot?"

The more Qin Ming refined it, the stronger his control over the tiger cat became. He could even clearly see everything inside its body and easily take control of it.

brush!

A blood-red tiger-cat appeared before Qin Ming, its blood color quickly fading, but its eyes still held a hint of blood, filled with deathly stillness and killing intent.

"Controlling flesh and blood puppets? That's interesting!"

As Qin Ming made a thought, the tiger cat's body began to move, running and jumping, showing no difference from an ordinary tiger cat.

This is a tiger cat of the high-ranking warrior level!

In just a short while, Qin Ming gained the combat power of a high-level warrior.

In some novels I read in my previous life, demonic treasures like the Myriad Soul Banner often possessed the ability to refine corpses and control zombies, puppets, and the like.

In the world of Swallowed Star, there is also a profession called Puppeteer.

Puppet Masters are a type of psychic, but they are very niche and extremely rare compared to Controllers and Illusionists.

It was hardly mentioned in the original work.

As for flesh and blood puppets, Qin Ming only knew of a special cosmic life form called the "Green Line Devouring Worm," which could split into thousands, take root in planets, and control life puppets.

"With the power of the Myriad Soul Banner, it seems possible to mass-produce flesh and blood puppets for use as weapons."

Qin Ming stroked his chin, no longer personally controlling the flesh puppet, but instead refining the original soul of the tiger cat and stuffing it into it.

Sure enough, once the tiger-cat's soul entered the body in front of him, he controlled it very easily, as if he had never died.

"Go! Hunt down a monster for me."

At a command, the tiger cat leaped off the balcony, bounding across the street before landing in front of a low-level beast general-level tiger hound.

The sharp claws shot out and swept across the tiger-dog's neck at an extremely fast speed, tearing out its blood vessels.

Then its small body bit the tiger-dog and dragged it into the building, right in front of Qin Ming.

"This flesh and blood puppet seems to have a wider range of movement than a soul entity, and it can use the flesh and blood crystals to continue strengthening itself, just like a monster's soul absorbs soul crystals!"

"Continue the experiments. With a batch of flesh and blood puppets, my strength and safety will be greatly improved."
