Parasite (Gu) Breeding Longveity Path: Starting from the love-enamored Gu

At the same time.

Puppet Clan headquarters.

Many Puppet Clan Elders also heard the news of this battle's defeat, each one's expression calm, as if they had anticipated it.

"As expected, our Puppet Clan's plan failed this time," one said.

"A very important factor was that the Human clan mastered a method to identify our Puppet Clan."

"It is precisely because of this that our Puppet Clan was exposed."

"This is a fatal blow to our Puppet Clan," stated a Puppet Clan Elder gravely.

It felt that the greatest factor in the failure of this battle was that the Puppet Clan, parasitic within human bodies, had been discovered by humans.

This meant that the many methods previously used by the Puppet Clan began to completely lose effect.

Operating undercover among humans as before would certainly not be as simple.

"Although we anticipated the failure of this plan," one continued.

"Our defeat was too miserable, too swift."

"It can only be said that the Human clan's development is rapid, truly beyond imagination."

"If this continues, our three clans will also have their living spaces squeezed by the Human clan."

Another Puppet Clan Elder's expression was very grave.

They had initiated the attack on Fengxi City not only to annihilate a city of the Human clan but also to test the current strength and development level of the Human clan.

The result of this attack fully displayed the terrifying power of the Human clan and their research into the Puppet Clan.

So, their plan this time can also be considered a total defeat.

But there wasn't a lack of gains.

At the least, they became aware that ordinary parasitic methods were now largely useless against the Human clan,

Easily identifiable.

"Our Puppet Clan's parasitism has three levels," a Puppet Clan Elder said resolutely.

"The first level is flesh and blood parasitism, which is merely simple parasitism, like controlling many flesh and blood beings as our soldiers, just as controlling puppets. Yet, this parasitism at a shallow level is easily perceived by others."

"The second level is soul parasitism, a deeper level of parasitism that can parasitize deep within an enemy's soul, absorbing the enemy's soul memories, and completely concealing our Puppet Clan's aura unless launching full-strength attacks which might then reveal the Puppet Clan's aura.

But now, this level of parasitism seems to have been deciphered by the Human clan. The Human clan seems to have developed a talisman, named Puppet Talisman, that can detect discrepancies between spirit and flesh, thereby recognizing those parasitized entities."

"The third level is Spirit and Puppet As One, where we, the Puppet Clan, fully integrate and merge indistinguishably with other flesh and blood beings, completely replacing their soul and flesh. Thus, achieving a true unity of spirit and flesh, completely assuming their identity.

Of course, initiating this level of Puppet parasitism means we can never leave this host body; if it dies, we die with it, so unless absolutely necessary, we do not use this degree of parasitism.

However, once Spirit and Puppet As One is conducted, even if the Human clan uses various methods, they can't detect our true Puppet Clan selves, because we truly become humans, just without the memories of the Puppet Clan," stated a Puppet Clan Elder gravely.

Certainly, these are the terrifying parasitic methods of the Puppet Clan.

They are also among the main reasons the Puppet Clan was able to become one of the super clans of the Spirit World in the past.

In the past, the Puppet Clan often parasitized those belonging to super races and super geniuses, seizing their bodies, acquiring their cultivation, and their talents.

Millions of years ago, it was also a Mahayana Cultivator of the Puppet Clan who attempted to seize the Soul of a True Spirit Sky Phoenix, replacing the True Spirit Sky Phoenix, thus infuriating it and bringing about their clan's annihilation."

"Elder, do we really need to apply Spirit and Puppet As One?" one Puppet Clan Elder inquired.

"Once we do, our future is set."

Truthfully, they didn't really wish to apply this Puppetry Technique on the Human clan; they merely desired to control them.

After all, among the myriad clans in the Spirit World, many possessed greater talents than the Human clan.

Compared to them, the Human clan was merely a mediocre clan.

If they were truly to employ Spirit and Puppet As One, why not seek other flesh and blood beings with more astonishing talents? There was absolutely no need to choose the Human clan, as it was purely compromising their future.

"Don't worry, not all the Elders need to do this," assured an Elder.

"It is sufficient if only a portion of the Puppet Clan Elders do so."

"Once we control many of Human clan's Great Unification Ability, then sooner or later, the Human clan will all be under our control."

"We could even quietly control the Human clan, enslave them."

"For our Puppet Clan, this is a great opportunity for development," declared a Puppet Clan Great Elder resolutely.

"Great Elder, do we have a way to enslave the Golden Toad Clan and the Flying Snake Clan?" asked another Elder.

"If we could also enslave these two super clans, wouldn't the strength of the Puppet Clan also see a remarkable increase?" suggested a Puppet Clan Elder, aiming his thoughts at the Flying Snake and Golden Toad Clans.

In this world, there are no eternal cooperation, only eternal interests.

If they could assimilate these two super clans, then the Puppet Clan might also ascend further.

"Difficult, very difficult. Our Puppet Clan's power is difficult to apply on these two clans," an Elder responded.

"Firstly, the Golden Toad Clan, a clan that devours countless deadly poisons, resorts to their bodies as repositories of filth; if we try parasitism, our parasitic entities would likely be poisoned to death."
