Capítulo 862: Chapter 403: Divine Mimicry Heavenly Soldier

The Heavenly Soldier Furnace is equivalent to a complete assembly line.

With just the right materials, you can forge an Imitative Heavenly Soldier in the Golden Peas state.

The Extraordinary Remains are refined and reassembled, minerals are turned into Bone Armor, Spirit Plants are disassembled and crafted into meridians. A mysterious construction similar to the Soul Well is formed.

Each Golden Pea represents technology beyond human comprehension.

And once the Golden Peas are crafted, just a small infusion of Spiritual Energy is needed to revive and accept commands.

They are the most loyal soldiers, willing to do anything to complete the mission.

Of course, instructions should be reasonable. If you were to ask them to write code, they wouldn’t understand that either.

Thanks to previous efforts, Li Yelai has accrued a substantial amount of Merit Points. In this Immortal Palace War, he was also awarded three thousand Merit Points and a million Giant City Coins.

This allows him to procure high-grade materials for Heavenly Soldier forging.

He spent ten thousand Merit Points, purchasing quite a few Extraordinary Creature remnants, even those at the Overlord Level.

The prices of these remnants were actually not high.

After all, the materials needed for Spiritual Ability Equipment or Magic Potions had already been extracted from the remnants.

Some valuable flesh was also stripped away.

The remaining skeleton or body parts had little use, often turned into fertilizer.

But the Heavenly Soldier Furnace is not picky. It just needs the remnants to be strong enough, no matter where they come from, they can be refined!

It can even elevate the value of the remnants somewhat.

From now on, no Extraordinary Creature’s body will leave the Giant City. It represents perfect resource utilization.

Li Yelai even saw the skeleton of a Mountain Dragon, the one that appeared in Disaster Fog No. 71.

Its size was enormous, and its bones were extremely sturdy.

Even the Insect Swarm hadn’t finished it. Some bones were left behind and collected by the officials afterward.

According to official research, if the bones of a Seventh Awakening Ancient Dragon and a Little Golden Tree Seed are used in forging, the Imitative Heavenly Soldier might carry Divinity.

Although the Imitative Heavenly Soldier has an empty panel, it lacks the diverse abilities of a Spiritual Ability User.

It wouldn’t be a match for a Spiritual Ability User with the same Spiritual Power Strength.

Often, it takes the cooperation of multiple Sixth Sense Heavenly Soldiers to oppose a Six Senses Captain.

But if they have Divinity, then that’s different.

Divinity is an overwhelming force against Spiritual Energy. Even if its attack methods are quite singular, it’s of little use against Overlord-level experts.

But it could still threaten Sixth-sense experts. If mixed with other Heavenly Soldiers, it might just achieve a one-hit kill!

But Li Yelai hesitated….

He initially thought that the matter of forging, with the same materials thrown in, could not result in any surprises. Just like one plus one not equaling two.

The same materials, the same furnace. What could possibly go wrong?

But just before, when he threw some Extraordinary Remains with Sixth Sense Strength and some Spirit Plants into the furnace, he only obtained some Imitative Heavenly Soldiers with Fourth Sense Strength, rarely with Fifth Sense Strength. And with Sixth Sense Strength… not a single one.

Heavenly Soldiers of such strength cannot deal with a Sixth-sense expert.

Li Yelai himself could single-handedly take on several Sixth Sense Imitative Heavenly Soldiers. What use were they?

After spending several thousand Merit Points’ worth of materials, just to harvest these?

It would be better to directly buy the materials and have the officials forge them. The quality might even be higher this way!

Thus, Li Yelai’s expression changed from initial excitement, to seriousness, and finally to frustration. Ultimately, it turned into numbness.

Disheartened, he squatted before the Heavenly Soldier Furnace.

“Does this also depend on luck?” Li Yelai couldn’t believe it, looking at the precious Overlord-level remnants and Little Golden Tree Seed.

Li Yelai ultimately ceased his stubbornness, disgracefully backed off.

If such materials were wasted, Li Yelai would have tears in his eyes even if he hid in his bed.

Therefore, Li Yelai decisively stopped and left the forging room. With his soot-blackened face, he quickly ran home to seek his sister’s help.

Li Yunyan was startled by her suddenly dirty, disheveled brother’s appearance.

After hearing Li Yelai’s explanation, Li Yunyan teased, “Are you saying that after finishing shopping, you went straight to forging Heavenly Soldiers?”

Seeing Li Yelai nod, Li Yunyan’s mouth twitched.

While she was out shopping yesterday, she had coaxed a doll into buying some clothes as a surprise for her brother. It turns out her brother hadn’t even returned home.

After some thought, Li Yunyan said, “Brother, with your luck, stop playing with fate. Let me handle it, I’m lucky!”

Afterward, the two returned to the forging room, with Li Yunyan personally putting the materials into the furnace, not allowing Li Yelai to touch anything. She even shooed him to a corner.

Li Yelai felt abandoned, thinking no self-respecting man should endure this within heaven and earth…

Li Yunyan directly teased, “That’s right, brother, we’re abandoning you!”

Li Yelai paused, feeling she was right.

He then reminded once more, “Don’t stare into the flames; it might lure you in.”

“I know, how many times have you told me? Later, find a Beast Swarm and let them jump into the fire by themselves, saving you a lot of effort.” Li Yunyan replied, then first washed her face and took out a small incense burner from somewhere, muttering incantations.

Only after performing a series of “monkey tricks,” did she lift a big bone and throw it into the furnace.

Li Yunyan didn’t let Li Yelai down. As the purple flames in the furnace blazed,

eight Golden Peas flew out from the furnace.

Li Yelai activated the peas, and eight Imitative Heavenly Soldiers emerged.

Among them, five had Spiritual Barriers that Li Yelai found hard to neutralize.

This means… they possess Divinity!

Five Imitative Heavenly Soldiers with Divinity, and three Imitative Heavenly Soldiers with Sixth Sense Strength!
