"Did Yao really say that?"
"Yes."
Zhuge Heng nodded his head, "Your highness might not know this, but the Daemon King level demon spirit stones are simply too precious. Even the strongest sect in the continent, the Tianji Sect, only has 11 Daemon King level demon spirit stones. This time, Big Miss asked for 8 in one go, saying that it was for her own cultivation. In reality, she only kept one for herself, and sent the rest to Your highness."
"Yao is too considerate …" Lin Muyu couldn't help but smile.
Zhuge Heng also smiled, "With Your Highness Yu's words, Eldest Young Miss' painstaking efforts were not wasted. This subordinate will tell her the truth. In addition, is there anything else Your Highness wants me to tell Eldest Young Miss?"
"How many soldiers does the Bai Ze Mercenary Team have?"
"100,000 people. Miss Si Kongyao borrowed 20 Captaincy from General Zhang Cheng to help train the soldiers. Currently, the Bai Ze Mercenary Team's combat power is quite high."
"They can still borrow the general's?"
"Of course, General Zhang Cheng is Miss Shang Qian's maternal grandfather. Miss Shang Qian personally asked for it, so there's no reason not to borrow them in the future."
"Immediately return these generals after using them, don't keep them," Lin Muyu said.
"Understood." Zhuge Heng was also an old fox. He smiled. "The Bai Ze Mercenary Team will fight with Zhang Cheng's army sooner or later, so the enemy's people naturally can't be kept."
"Haha, that's right. Someone, transport the goods and return to Winter Frost City overnight!"
"Yes!"
…
Traveling through the night, they returned to Winter Frost City at noon the next day. Lin Muyu didn't sleep and personally sent the 20 carts of Demonic Heart Stones to the weapons department to find Qin Ziling.
When Qin Ziling saw so many Demon Heart Stones, it was as if he had obtained a treasure. He was so happy that he almost danced with joy. "Your Highness, where did you get so many Demon Heart Stones? Great … Great!"
"I have a secret channel, Ziling doesn't need to worry about it. Oh right, what have you been doing these days?"
"Your Highness, follow me and you will know."
"Oh?"
Lin Muyu, Wei Chou, Situ Sen, and Situ Xue looked at each other and smiled. Then, they followed Qin Ziling into the large drill ground in the backyard of the Department of Ordnance. Clanking sounds came from afar. No one knew what was being forged. However, this was the secret base of the Qin Empire. Lin Muyu knew that the development of the Department of Ordnance was related to the fate of the entire Qin Empire.
After walking for a short distance, they arrived at the archery testing base. A group of Weapons Division employees were busy loading arrows and then shooting at the rocks in front of them. "Dang, dang, dang!" The arrows sank into the rocks one after another, leaving only the feathers outside.
"That's the hardest rock in the Winter Ridge Province. It's called Cockscomb Rock." Qin Ziling smiled and said, "I've improved the torsion device of the arrow box, greatly increasing the shooting speed. Moreover, these arrows are tempered with the dual elements of Demonic Heart Stone and White Diamond. The lethality is multiplied. General Sen should also know the principle of shooting, right?"
Situ Sen nodded. "I know a little about the Dragon Imperial Spiral."
"That's right."
Qin Ziling said, "Although my cultivation is low, I also know that the Dragon Imperial Spiral is a kind of energy field similar to a whirlwind. The power of the Dragon Imperial Spiral is similar to a willow twig rotating with an axis. Its speed is very fast, so it can rely on the centrifugal force on the outside and the Dragon Crystal to withstand the bombardment of the Magic Crystal Cannon. It can even withstand multiple bombardments without any damage. Therefore, I've focused on increasing the shooting speed of the arrows. As long as the arrows can enter the air flow of the spiral, it will be fine."
Lin Muyu was silent.
"Your Highness, what do you think?" Qin Ziling said.
"No."
Lin Muyu shook her head. "I've fought with the Dragon Knights many times, and I know the speed of the Dragon Imperial Spiral. Even if you've improved the speed of the arrow box, it's still far from being able to keep up. The speed of the torsion device is almost destined to be unable to keep up with the Dragon Imperial Spiral. I can give you an exact number. Within the domain of the Dragon Imperial Spiral, there will be at least 15 swirls of air in a second. A normal arrow box probably won't be able to keep up with that speed in its lifetime."
"My god, so fast …" Qin Ziling was stunned. His entire person became somewhat dispirited. The idea that he had painstakingly worked on for half a month had become nothing more than a bubble because of a single sentence from Lin Muyu. This blow was just too great.
On the blueprint to the side, there was a hand-drawn drawing of the operating principle of the Dragon Imperial Spiral. The giant dragon and the Dragon Knight were very lifelike. Lin Muyu flipped through a few of the blueprints, and couldn't help but marvel at Qin Ziling's conscientiousness. Unfortunately, the development of technology was far from enough. Because of the lack of gunpowder, they lacked the most basic driving force. If the arrows could reach the flying speed of bullets, then they might be able to cause a certain amount of damage to the God level Dragon Knight.
"Gunpowder, oh gunpowder …" He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Could it be that the heavens were torturing him? Unfortunately, the Shattered Cauldron Realm didn't have sulfur, so it was naturally impossible to develop gunpowder.
"What's gunpowder?" Qin Ziling was startled.
"It's nothing …" Lin Muyu leaned on the table, thought for a moment, and said, "Gunpowder is a product from another plane. Once it explodes, it will produce a huge shockwave, allowing the object to reach an unimaginable speed. If we had gunpowder, we could use the Demon Heart Arrow to shoot it. We should be able to achieve an unexpected result."
"Propelled by the explosion of gunpowder?"
Qin Ziling blankly stood where he was. Suddenly, he slapped his thigh and laughed loudly, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the reminder. Hahaha, this is great … Thank you, Your Highness, for the reminder!"
Lin Muyu looked at him with a stunned expression, "Ziling, what are you doing? It's like you've won the lottery."
Qin Ziling was extremely excited. His entire body trembled, and he stared at her with disheveled hair and a dirty face, saying, "It was Your Highness who reminded me. The shockwave produced by the explosion can greatly increase speed. Perhaps it can break through the limit of speed and destroy the defense of the Dragon Imperial Spiral."
"So what?"
"Could it be that Your Highness has forgotten the astonishing power produced by the explosion of the magic crystal cannon? What if we cast the arrowhead of the Demon Heart Arrow on the outside of the magic crystal cannon, and then use the power produced by the explosion of the magic crystal cannon to send the Demon Heart Arrow to destroy the Dragon Imperial Spiral? "
"Really?" Lin Muyu turned pale with fright.
"Yes, at least we can try!"
Qin Ziling laughed excitedly, and Lin Muyu also laughed along as if she had seen the light of dawn.
At the side, Wei Chou poured cold water on them, "Your Highness, Lord Ziling, don't forget how high the temperature produced by the explosion of the magic crystal cannon is. When we fought against the demons, their Armor Demons were wearing thick and heavy armor. A magic crystal cannon wouldn't even leave a scrap behind, let alone a small arrowhead like the Demon Heart Arrow."
Lin Muyu stilled, "That's true …"
Qin Ziling hadn't calmed down from his excitement yet. His forehead was covered in sweat, and he said, "It's fine, we just need to find some materials that can withstand high temperature to melt and refine the Demon Heart Stone."
"But how can materials that can withstand the high temperature of the magic crystal cannon be melted and refined into a Demon Heart Stone?" Wei Chou said.
"Ah …"
Qin Ziling was stunned for a moment, and then he pointed at the door of the Weapons Division, "Duke Wei, get out, you are not welcome here …"
Lin Muyu laughed loudly and patted Qin Ziling's shoulder, "Don't rush, think slowly, there will be a way."
"Mn."
Qin Ziling nodded, and said, "Your Highness, please be at ease, Ziling will definitely think of a suitable way to forge this godly weapon, and help our Qin Family reverse the situation."
"Mn, we'll leave it to you, then we won't bother you anymore. Ziling, you must remember to eat on time, you've already lost weight. Have you used the few demon race beauties I gave you a few days ago as concubines?"
"No … not yet …"
… …
Late at night, Lin Muyu once again refined a Demon King level demon spirit stone. Ever since he started cultivating the Invisible Elephant Arts, his body was like a dry well, thirsting for the nourishment of spirit energy. Speaking of which, it was strange that his Qi Sea seemed to have expanded a lot because of the Invisible Elephant Arts. It was bottomless, and even if it was a Demon King level demon spirit stone, he could still absorb at least eighty percent of its power.
"Huu …"
With a light breath, the demon spirit stone had already completely disappeared from his palm, and the turbid breath flew into the room through his mouth and nose. Having just finished refining, Lin Muyu could only feel his blood boiling, and this made him very excited. Could it be that he was about to break through again?!
This Invisible Elephant Arts simply made him feel as if he had the help of the gods. Even in the entire three realms, there wouldn't be many people with this kind of breakthrough speed, right?
He began to gather the divine power in his body, and attacked the profound entrances of his Qi Sea again and again.
The first thirty waves were extremely easy, and only when he reached the thirty-first wave did he feel a little strained, but he could still control it. In the blink of an eye, he had already broken through the thirty-sixth wave. He continued to gather all of his divine power together without hesitation, and crazily attacked the entrance of the profound entrances. With a "pu" sound, the profound entrances were broken!
An intense pain came from his body, but Lin Muyu still maintained a clear mind. Just now, he had already broken through the thirty-seventh layer of Heavenly Passage, but he felt that there was still a bit of potential left in his body, and he could still continue to stimulate it!
A crazy thought flashed through his mind, break through two realms in one go!
The thirty-eighth wave crazily surged, and began to attack the thirty-eighth profound entrances that had just been formed. Under the crazy attack, the lustrous profound entrances began to distort, and the pain it brought was naturally not something that ordinary people could endure.
Lin Muyu let out a cry and spat out a mouthful of blood. The power in his body was like a raging river, and the God Binding Chains, the Seven Luminaries Holy Gourd, the Dragon Blood Battle Shield, and other powers quickly passed through his body, and were glowing with a buzzing sound. Was he going to go berserk?!
He was slightly startled, and his mind was already starting to blur. As expected, one shouldn't be too extreme in cultivation!
At this moment, Lin Muyu already began to feel a little regretful, but what was the use of regretting?
"Akatosaurus!"
A roar that came from the depths of his soul instantly tore open the plane behind him, and Akatosaurus flew out with a loud and clear dragon roar, and transformed into a dragon armor that wrapped around Lin Muyu. At the same time, its dragon power formed a shield, and prevented its master's divine power from leaking.
