Years went past inside the Lord of Lords pagoda, and in these years I managed to finish the many Puppets, gear, and weaponry that I thought would need. Not only that, I even made several dozen spares of gear, equipment, and parts for the hundred puppet army.
The last thing I would want is lacking pieces or parts to repair a puppet that could be used to aid in my survival. After all you can never be too prepared.
I'm not that arrogant to think I'll be able to face off against far stronger, more powerful and far more experienced cultivators, so preparing and preparing some more is the best I can do.
I improved not only my weapons but also my tools, had made sure to have several thousands of talismans, even some that are simple as Sound Muffling talismans, or some as powerful as the Soul Shackling Stake inscription.
