The upper and lower limits of the Bean Soldiers Ability were large.

It would change according to the refining technique and materials.

Under normal circumstances, the refining materials chosen would be large in quantity and high in quality.

Zhou Feng immediately thought of his Blood Qi.

He cultivated the Emperor Coiling Scripture, so his Blood Qi had been condensed to the extreme.

In addition to all kinds of passive buffs and the AI’s assistance, his Blood Qi had already completed its metamorphosis. From the quality point of view, it was not low at all.

Moreover, the quantity… Well, he had lots of it due to the passive Second Heart and Blood Qi Boost.

Using the Blood Qi to refine dao soldiers was already the cheapest and most convenient method.

When the Blood Qi was consumed, Zhou Feng could make up for the Blood Qi consumption by eating.

The Level-2 Gluttony had turned him into a Blood Qi manufacturing machine.

“Begin!”

Zhou Feng cut a small hole in his palm, and threads of golden blood seeped out.

Then, the AI began to assist him in the refinement.

First, Shi Li’s remnant soul was forcibly merged into one of the spirit beans.

Then, a large amount of Blood Qi was used to start infusing these spirit beans.

The spirit beans already contained a trace of spirituality, and they were infused with the Human Emperor Blood. Thus, it wouldn’t be long before these spirit beans were spiritualized.

And after the spirit beans were spiritualized, the most crucial step followed.

One had to stabilize this trace of spirituality so that it wouldn’t be lost.

This step was very taxing on one’s mind. If one weren’t careful, all previous efforts would be wasted.

As long as one completed this step, the subsequent refinement would be a long process.

Actually, it was not very difficult to turn beans into soldiers. Even cultivators with poor aptitude could successfully cultivate this divine ability.

However, the strength of dao soldiers was hard to guarantee.

Zhou Feng had the AI’s assistance, so any opportunity to operate it was perfect.

He could even refine all the spirit beans at the same time.

“Not bad!”

He felt his Blood Qi being drained.

Although he had lost a lot of Blood Qi, he could still hold on.

The most important thing was that the Blood Qi recovery was effective.

The 10 spirit beans in front of him gradually began to turn into small figures.

“Then, the next step!”

After the spirit enchantment was completed, the next step was to equip the dao soldiers!

One could equip the dao soldiers with various items. Some cultivators would draw a formation during this step, while others would seal remnant souls inside.

Some rich cultivators would directly fuse demon beast skin, scales, spirit blood, and natural essence into them.

It was simply comparable to refining puppets.

Once this type of dao soldier was formed, it would possess extraordinary intelligence and could complete some complex commands on its own.

It could also replenish its own Spiritual Qi.

Under normal circumstances, only large sects would refine it like this.

Ordinary cultivators weren’t that particular.

As for Zhou Feng, he would mobilize a large amount of Great Void Primordial Qi and condense it into a suit of armor and various weapons.

This was the most suitable method for Zhou Feng after the AI’s deduction and optimization.

He would use his Human Emperor Blood to refine the Great Void Primordial Qi as equipment.

Once the refinement was successful, these dao soldiers would be comparable to the weakened version of him.

Moreover, he could continuously provide these dao soldiers with Blood Qi and Great Void Primordial Qi.

When that time came, Zhou Feng would be the commander of a terrifying army.

He had already suffered enough of being alone.

It just so happened that Bean Soldiers was a group attack weapon. He wanted to take this opportunity to create an army for himself.

When he encountered a group fight, he would not be afraid.

Speaking of which, Zhou Feng had to mention Shi Li.

In order to refine an army of dao soldiers, the crucial point was to have a main general as the leader.

This leader was vital, equivalent to Zhou Feng and these dao soldiers’ transit station.

It just so happened that Shi Li’s remnant soul could be used as the main general’s soul.

At that time, the main general’s soul would be controlled by the AI.

Zhou Feng would be in charge during the battle while the rest would be handed over to the AI.

In order to complete this idea, the supercomputing power of the AI was an essential part.

In other words, it was basically impossible for others to copy this method.

“It’s formed!” Zhou Feng revealed a trace of excitement.

After a few consecutive days of refinement, a General-level dao soldier and nine Ordinary dao soldiers were finally formed.

Zhou Feng had almost been sucked dry. During this period, he had had no choice but to eat several times to replenish the lost Blood Qi.

The moment the dao soldiers were formed, Zhou Feng collapsed to the ground and panted heavily.

The 10 spirit beans that were formed were floating in control, constantly absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.

It was also thanks to the Spiritual Qi in the cave abode being dense enough. Otherwise, it would not be enough for these spirit beans to absorb.

Although he had paid such a high price—he was almost sucked dry—there was something to gain.

These 10 spirit beans could be activated instantly with just a thought from Zhou Feng.

Once they turned into dao soldiers, they could directly engage in battle.

Furthermore, each one of them had a Divine Ability cultivation base.

This was because the divine ability these dao soldiers used was the Great Void Primordial Art, and the AI controlled it.

Zhou Feng felt that he could destroy a small sect with Bean Soldiers.

“It’s a pity that I don’t know the art of military formations! If I had the art of military formations, I could condense a military soul! That would be amazing!”

Even so, Zhou Feng was still a little dissatisfied.

This was because there was the art of military formations in this world.

The art of military formations could be said to be a supplementary art created specifically for Bean Soldiers.

It could maximize the power of the dao soldier.

Once the formation was completed, it could summon a terrifying army spirit, as if a great devil had descended upon the world, sweeping away all cultivators of the same realm.

It could even fight against cultivators of a higher realm.

Unfortunately, the tokens only had the Bean Soldiers Ability and only some mentions of the art of military formations.

“I was too greedy!”

It was indeed everyone’s nature to get what they wanted. Zhou Feng gathered his emotions and put the refined dao soldiers into his sleeve.

Now that he had successfully cultivated the Bean Soldiers Ability, it was time to explore the ruins of Chaotian Temple.

According to Hexadirectional Calculation’s prediction, he would face a great calamity in 10 days.

And it would come from the three holy lands.

Zhou Feng could tell that the three holy lands would definitely play for real this time.

They might even send out Dragon Transformation experts.

Therefore, he had to take advantage of this period to improve himself. It was not enough to use the Bean Soldiers Ability.

If he wanted to fight against the Dragon Transformation experts, he had to obtain the connate numinous treasure.

Otherwise, it would be very difficult to hurt a Dragon Transformation expert just by relying on his Divine Ability cultivation.

A sense of urgency pressed down on his heart.

Therefore, he had to explore the Chaotian Temple’s ruins. Hexadirectional Calculation had predicted that his lifeline was located in the Chaotian Temple’s ruins!
