The Underworld, Old Yin Peak. A white-haired god of the Underworld was dozing off in the mountain. Suddenly, sounds of fighting came from the nearby River Styx.
The old man opened his eyes and stood up shakily, "Could it be that the old flood dragon couldn't wait any longer and wants to attack my Old Yin Peak?"
Old Yin was one of the Four Symbols, also known as Tai Yin. Old Yin Peak was one of the eight hundred Yin Mountains under the jurisdiction of the Yin Mountain Goddess, and it was one of the top spiritual mountains. It was rumored that one could see the cold moon in the human world at the top of the snow-covered Old Yin Peak. It was a weak point connected to the human world and received the Tai Yin Dew. Therefore, there were often ghosts who wanted to escape to the human world or steal the Tai Yin Dew. Fortunately, the Tai Yin Old Man was an experienced earth-realm god of the underworld, and he firmly guarded this passage and protected the tributes of the Lords of the Underworld.
However, as a neighbor of the Old Yin Peak, a Black Water Demon Flood Dragon often came to cause trouble, and the mountain god was troubled. The flood dragon was weaker than him, but with the help of the River Styx, the mountain god couldn't take it down easily.
He leaned on his crutch and looked in the direction of the Black Water River Styx, and saw a ten-meter-long black flood dragon controlling the Black Water to fight with a group of water ghosts.
"Those water ghosts …" Seeing the flag not far away, the mountain god was shocked, "Are they the Underworld Navy?"
The Underworld Navy had been neglected for so many years, and they dared to come out and attack those water ghosts?
The mountain god quietly went over to check. Amidst the battle cries, a commander held a flag and ordered his three thousand soldiers to line up.
"Disperse, they want to use Weak Water!"
The flag shook, and the power of the River Styx spread out on the water surface, and the flood dragon's Weak Water immediately disappeared.
"Quick, prepare the Dragon-tying Rope, use the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation!"
The water ghosts took out three hundred gold locks and worked together to trap the flood dragon.
"Don't attack the flood dragon's claws, attack its tail and horns!"
Although the army of three thousand water ghosts didn't have advanced armor, with their cooperation and prior practice, they steadily stalled the demon flood dragon and slowly took its life.
Not long after, the carcass of the Flood Dragon floated up from the river. The Water Ghosts quickly took out their blades and skinned the Flood Dragon.
The corner of the Mountain God's eyes twitched. This flood dragon was indeed not a big threat to him. Even if it escaped in the water, he would not be able to kill it easily. That said, it's not something that can be killed by trash like Hell's navy, right? After all, it was a dragon of the Human Realm!
The leader holding the flag put it away. The God Power that enveloped the River Styx immediately disappeared. He walked forward slowly and said, "Elder God, don't worry. We are under the king's orders to clean up the River Styx. We will return the Underworld clean."
"The Lord of the Nether River has made his move?" Old Man Taiyin had often heard the Goddess mention this master of the River Styx. Seeing that the master of the River Styx had finally started to clean up the River Styx, he couldn't help but pat his chest and say, "Good, good. It's good that the great lord has woken up. Otherwise, if water monsters appear all over the River Styx, our Underworld Mountain won't be safe. "
The great lord must have made the flag and taught them to seal the River Styx to prevent the water monsters from escaping.
Seeing that everyone was helping him deal with the water monsters, Elder God immediately sent someone to fetch fruits from the Divine Palace to serve the navy.
The Underworld navy had always been looked down upon. Now that they saw an Earth Realm Mountain God treating them with such respect, they felt proud and secretly admired the Lord of the Nether River.
"Sure enough, a backer is useful. With a great lord at the helm, our navy will have a day to shine. "
…
In the King Youha Palace, Marquis of Forgetfulness and Ji Feichen didn't stay idle while the navy was cleaning up the river.
Ji Feichen leaned over the table and was drawing a water map of the entire Underworld's waterways.
Marquis of Forgetfulness stood in front of an Eight Trigrams plate. A golden light shone from the Kun trigram. He took it and read it, then immediately presented it to Ji Feichen and said, "Your Majesty, the Demon Flood Dragon of the Old Yin Peak has been eliminated. Do you want General Li and the others to return? "
"Return?" Ji Feichen was drawing the map of the entire Underworld's waterways. He pointed the tip of his brush at the Old Yin Peak and drew down the River Styx. "Let them go along the River Styx and clean up the water monsters in these three areas." The red brush circled the positions of the three water monsters. "They used the Blood River War Flag to seal the waterways. No water monster can escape from I's Divine Power Realm. Three thousand water ghosts are enough."
The Underworld navy had been neglected for many years. To train his soldiers, Ji Feichen chose the water monsters in the waterways as his initial targets. Although there would be some casualties, the Yakshas were good at medicine. As long as they didn't die on the spot, they could be saved. Even if they died on the spot, with Ji Feichen's red brush, they would be treated as if they had died for the Underworld and could enjoy reincarnation.
With reincarnation, the water ghosts didn't have to worry about death. Instead, they fought bravely without fear of death. In just three months, more than half of the water monsters had been eliminated.
Marquis of Forgetfulness took the seal and went to the Eight Trigrams Plate again. After waiting for a while and seeing that there was no news from the other commanders, he returned to Ji Feichen's side.
"What, is there something else?"
"No, nothing." Although Marquis of Forgetfulness was favored by Ji Feichen, he knew that this was just a random assignment from the Lord. If he hadn't spoken up for the navy and left an impression in the Lord's mind, it would have been another ghost monkey who took his current position.
"I just wanted to ask when our equipment will be delivered."
Currently, he could easily defeat the water ghosts with the protection of Ji Feichen's Divine Power even without equipment. But it was not enough against the ghosts of the Guizhou Continent. According to the Phoenix Real Body's investigation, there were at least eight Giant Spirit Ghosts and many ghosts born in the Underworld. It would be a tough battle.
"Coming soon. It will definitely be delivered within a year," Ji Feichen said confidently, but he was still worried about the efficiency of the Marlboro Boy and the others. Thus, he personally used the newly formed "Zi Chen Incarnation" to rush to Luoshan's underground palace.
Zi Chen Incarnation corresponded to Great Scarlet Cave's Zi Chen Blessed Land, a special blessed land that suppressed the fate of people dao.
The Daoist's body was surrounded by purple gas as he floated to Luoshan's underground palace.
As Long Yuan's forces spread, the six of them were busy with their own forces. Genchuhei established the Yuan Sect outside and gathered the people of the Demon Sect to turn over a new leaf. After Pu Shilin came into contact with the Heavenly Dipper Sect, he secretly conspired with them to fish in troubled waters in the Guizhou Continent. Levante established merchant guilds in other continents and was currently not in Xuanzheng Chau. Ishino was helping Ji Feichen's Demon Dragon body in Yin Ming School to plan the orthodoxy of Yin Ming School. There was also "Qin Nianxian" who was reincarnating. Currently, the underground palace was managed by Jin Shaolan alone.
After Ji Feichen arrived, he directly entered the core of the underground palace.
"He's not here?" Calculating with his fingers, Ji Feichen found Jin Shaolan's location and directly entered the thirty-sixth secret room.
Although Ji Feichen had already used his own method to form the Phoenix True Body, Jin Shaolan was still curious about the Phoenix bloodline and was still researching the Phoenix True Body. However, due to the lack of materials, it was hard to analyze the Phoenix True Body's secret of Nirvana.
"I still need true Phoenix Blood. Boss's Phoenix True Body leans towards the Yin attribute and is not very helpful to me. The best candidate is still Bi Rong. "
Bi Rong, after Feng Qianli ascended, traveled the mortal world by himself and gradually gained some fame. Moreover, because he came from the Qi Practitioner lineage, the immortals also had a good impression of Qi Practitioners.
"It's best if I can find a chance to trick him and obtain the Phoenix Blood from him —" As Jin Shaolan was deep in thought, he suddenly heard a light cough from the side.
"Cough cough …" Ji Feichen looked at Jin Shaolan with a disapproving expression.
Jin Shaolan hurriedly stood up: "Boss, why are you here?"
"I'm here to ask about the progress of the armor production. But are you going to act against Bi Rong? "
"I'm just stealing a bit of Phoenix Blood. Right now, the demonic beasts are rampaging in the mortal world. As long as he is slightly injured, I can get my hands on him. "
"He is a Qi Practitioner lineage after all and has some relations with me. Don't hurt him."
"I understand." Jin Shaolan then brought Ji Feichen to another secret room: "According to Boss's suggestion, we will use an assembly line to produce the armor."
As they entered the secret room, a wave of heat hit them. Upon closer inspection, there was a whole new world inside. Many white-clothed people wearing masks were busy in front of a stone platform.
In the center were five giant furnaces. Five white-clothed people were controlling the heat to refine the molten iron. Starting from the first furnace, the molten iron flowed through pipes into the next four furnaces. Furthermore, there were people continuously adding spirit herbs and ingredients. When the fifth furnace appeared, the originally red molten iron turned a strange dark green color and flowed into the mold to create the various parts of the armor. And when the parts were completed, there were people using the "movable type printing" method to inscribe a formation inside the parts using talismans.
Ji Feichen raised his eyebrows: "These people … are puppets?"
"That's right, it's a modified version of the Big Dipper series based on the puppet that Boss brought back."
In the past, Ji Feichen had obtained a nameless puppet from the Zenith Palace. After researching it with Jin Shaolan, they understood the nameless system of the Zenith Palace. Thus, Long Yuan decided to use a similar method to create a puppet that belonged solely to Long Yuan. This was the so-called Big Dipper puppet system.
"I remember you said that the Big Dipper puppets are divided into three types: Principal, Auxiliary, and Deputy. Each of you can have one Principal seven-star, and I can use the 'Power of the North Pole' to descend at will. "This was the life-saving method of the Big Dipper puppets. If they could not defeat others, they could directly ask for Ji Feichen's avatar to descend. And on normal days, they could use the puppets to communicate with each other across continents.
"But the remaining two types of puppets, the Left and Right Deputy, haven't they been researched yet? Which type is this? "
"It's the Left Deputy's Dongming series. I inscribed the living souls I collected in the early years into the puppets and made them work for me as living corpses."
Ji Feichen frowned. Jin Shaolan hurriedly explained: "I got Shi Lin to secretly collect these living souls. Don't worry, they are all evil people. I found them in the Guizhou Continent."
Guizhou Continent.
Ever since the Guizhou Continent's expedition failed, the immortal sects were in chaos. They fought each other incessantly. As long as Pu Shilin picked up the scraps, he would be able to find a large group of living souls.
"Guizhou Continent? Forget it then." If it was Xuanzheng Chau, Ji Feichen might be wary of Peng Shaoyu and let Jin Shaolan release the living souls. But it did not matter to Guizhou Continent.
Looking at the white-clothed people in front of him, Jin Shaolan said: "Don't worry, Boss. They don't know where they are. Also, I will sign a hundred-year contract with them. After they work for me for a hundred years, I will wipe away their memories and help them reincarnate. "
"That's good too. You can make your own arrangements."
An experimental maniac like Jin Shaolan would find it difficult to make any progress on big topics if he kept researching by himself. At this time, the more helpers he had, the better.
However, he increasingly felt that his Long Yuan was starting to move towards the path of an antagonist. Which main character opened a laboratory and used assembly lines to manufacture firearms?
Why else would it be said that antagonist usually had lofty ideals and a team that worked wholeheartedly.
Ji Feichen's thoughts drifted further and further. He said to Jin Shaolan: "If you can find like-minded people, I don't mind if you expand the laboratory a bit."
"Mm." Jin Shaolan took out a finished wristguard from the side: "Boss, take a look. Is this suitable?"
This was a silver-white wristguard. There was only a strength amplification formation carved on it.
"Three Tribulation Force Formation?"
"Yes. It can increase the strength of soldiers by three times using the ancient talisman engraving method. After all, the cost of making real magic armor is too high. We have no way of copying the formation diagram. "
If it was the current magic treasure system, the runes on the formation diagram could change on their own and adjust the formation formed by the runes. However, Jin Shaolan used the talisman treasure system that had been eliminated a long time ago on the wristguard. There was only one formation and it could not be modified.
"Of course, to make up for this deficiency. Other than the wristguard, there are also corresponding formations on the arm, shoulder, leg, chest, and even the battle skirt. Normally, there would be twelve to fifteen formations on the armor to ensure the strength, spirit, agility, bone frame, and so on. Also, if a set of armor is assembled together, there will be a special set bonus, as well as three transformations of the armor. "
Ji Feichen played with the wristguard. He was very satisfied with the material of the armor. He asked again: "What's the final result of the experiment?"
"After an Early Stage of Exuvia ghost puts on this armor, they can fight against a Middle Stage of Exuvia ghost. And a Late Stage of Exuvia ghost can directly exert their peak strength. "
"How's the defense?"
"A complete set of Spirit Armor can block the full power attack of a Peak Stage Exuvia ghost without any damage. Of course, it can only block once. "
"Once is enough. We can repair it later. We'll go with your idea for now." Putting the wristguard back, Ji Feichen observed on the assembly line: "How many of these armors can be made in a day?"
"This …" Jin Shaolan hesitated, he said hesitantly: "I can barely make ten sets."
"Ten sets?" Ji Feichen immediately shook his head: "No, that's too little. Prepare at least ten thousand sets within a year. "
According to the current casualty rate of the Water Demons, there will be at least ten thousand Water Demons attacking the Bright Moon Continent. Ji Feichen requested for everyone to have a set of Spirit Armor, to show the new look of the Underworld Navy.
"Boss, I only have a hundred living souls here. Even if I transfer all of them to help form the assembly line, it won't be enough to make thirty sets a day!"
Ji Feichen rubbed his chin and thought: "How about outsourcing? Outsourcing some of the steps to other merchant associations or powerful forces? "
"That's what Old Lai is doing. Boss asked me to make the armor, and he made the weapons. Many of his weapons are outsourced to other merchant associations. He asked them to make the weapon embryos before applying the formation diagram. But I don't think his efficiency is fast enough. Also, our merchant association doesn't have enough artificers. " In order to rush the production of ten thousand sets of armor and weapons, Levante had already stopped many of his businesses to work on what Ji Feichen had instructed him to do.
Ji Feichen frowned and stared at the white-clothed man in front of him for a long time: "What if I find you some more living souls?"
"If we have more people, we can consider adding two assembly lines. But we can't find living souls from the Black Anemone Continent and Xuanzheng Chau. The Underworld's investigation will always be a problem. As for the Bright Moon Continent, we can't force Shi Lin's speed. "
"So, I will go personally!"
Was it difficult to collect the living souls of cultivators from the Bright Moon Continent?
In celestial continents without Underworld, the souls of cultivators would be led into the Underworld after they died and turned into ghosts or broken down to be reincarnated again. Since Pu Shilin found the souls of dying cultivators from the human world, then he would let the Phoenix Body find them from the Underworld.
"Shaolan, prepare the Left Assistant Puppet first. I will send you three hundred living souls in three days."
