Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Although the battle at the entrance of the mine was short, it also alarmed the other blackwater troops stationed here.

A total of ten people were stationed here, two died and eight remained.

The remaining eight people gathered quickly and rushed towards the entrance of the mine.

The people who come are Jindan strongman, sick cat, Da Dun, Erdan, the three of you will go to the entrance of the cave with me to stop them.

The remaining four people took the bazooka and spread out around the mine to ambush.

Zhu Zheng was very tall, so he selected three of the seven people behind him to go with him to stop the enemy.

It is almost a mortal task to stop the Jindan powerhouse with their foundation building and cultivation base.

Without any hesitation, the three behind them separated one of the two bazookas they were carrying, walked out of the team, and chased after Zhu Zheng.

As the respected Blackwater Army, the education they received from childhood made them fearless and courageous in the face of death.

It is a kind of honor for a soldier to die in battle, and it is a matter of glory.

With the establishment of the foundation against Jindan, they only have one chance at most to strike, and if they fail to succeed, the four of them will die at the hands of Jindan monks.

But before they die, the four of them will try their best to win more opportunities for the four comrades hidden behind.

The dozens of people stationed at the fire obsidian mine are all veterans who have experienced battles. Facing life and death, everyone is very understanding, even indifferent.

There is no sensational plot of let me go or don't go between each other.

The remaining four people took the bazooka and immediately rushed to the surrounding highlands to occupy a favorable position in advance.

The rocket launchers deployed by these soldiers are filled with mutated Thunder Spirit Grass seeds, which are powerful enough to kill Jindan.

It's just that although the power of a weapon is great, it still depends on the person who uses it. In the hands of a foundation cultivator, it will be greatly reduced. The main reason is that it may not be able to hit it.

When Zhu Zheng led the three of them towards the entrance of the mine, he already had the bazooka in his hand, ready to fire at any time.

When they were more than a hundred feet away from the entrance of the mine, they saw a tall and thin monk coming out of the mine. His scorched Taoist robes could not conceal the temperament of a strong golden core.

Zhu Zheng stopped immediately, pointed the bazooka at the Jindan cultivator in front, and pressed the switch with his thumb.

Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The four rocket launchers flew out at the same time with a tacit understanding,

They attacked the tall and thin monk from different angles.

The tall and thin monk had already discovered the four of them, Zhu Zheng, and he also felt a huge crisis in the face of the four attacking rocket launchers.

Immediately, the fiery red flying sword slashed out, and a bazooka was still on the way, and it was split in half by the flying.

The bazooka is just a magic weapon, its material and hardness are much worse than the magic weapon flying sword, so naturally it can't stop the magic weapon's blow.

After the Feijian split a bazooka, it continued to chop the next bazooka without stopping.

It's just that the flying sword just approached this time, and the bazooka exploded in the air, and the remaining two bazookas even accelerated and flew towards the tall and thin man.

Unfortunately, just as the bazooka approached, the tall and thin man turned into a light and flew away, successfully dodging the remaining two bazookas.

While the tall and thin man successfully dodged the bazooka, his fiery red flying sword made a half-circle and slashed at Zhu Zheng and the others below.

Zhu Zheng sacrificed a top-quality magic weapon shield, which was like paper in front of the magic weapon, and was pierced by the flying sword, and pierced through the chests of the four people at the same time.

When the tall and thin monk beheaded the four of Zhu Zheng, four more bazookas flew to the front in the sky, and eight light spots rose one after another in the distance.

12 rocket launchers flew towards him from four directions and 12 different angles.

This time, 12 bazookas blocked all his escape routes. Although his flying sword could split one or two bazookas, he could no longer cut his own way out.

Boom boom boom...

Amidst a series of bangs, the tall and thin man was engulfed by a cloud of smoke from the explosion, and there was no other movement for a long time.

When the smoke dissipated, only some body parts remained in place.

………………

It was half a day before the news of the mine reached Zhang He.

Six of the ten foundation-building monks stationed at the fire obsidian mine were killed in battle, and the remaining four used rocket launchers to successfully kill an invading Jindan monk.

After Zhang He heard the news, he immediately rewarded the ten people stationed in the mine, especially the six who died in battle. The rewards were even heavier, including honor and material rewards, which were received by their relatives.

He had paid enough attention to this mine before, and he almost let a Jindan stage spy escape.

In the past two years, the golden core monks under him have become a little more generous. He learned his lesson and immediately sent a golden core monk to lead two ten-man black water troops to guard the fire obsidian veins.

This is just a defense on the surface, and the amount should not be too much, otherwise there will be no three hundred taels of silver here.

He handed over the real defense point to the Shadow Pavilion, and asked the Shadow Pavilion to set up a large number of secret guards around the fire obsidian vein, so that no suspicious personnel could be allowed to leave the mine vein.

In addition, he asked Zhang Yuan to set up a magic circle within the area of ​​the fire obsidian vein, mainly to isolate the communication talisman and give an early warning.

As for the Golden Core cultivator who was killed this time, Zhang He guessed that it was most likely from the Fan family of Wu Kingdom.

Of course, it is also possible to come from other forces.

He once traded 500 catties of purple red obsidian ore with Fan's. For this kind of rare spirit ore, this is already a large amount. It is not impossible to attract the attention of other forces and investigate him.

The purple fire obsidian here is located deep underground, and it is difficult to mine. At least a Golden Core cultivator is required to mine a part of it, but compared to its value, it is worth it.

If this matter is exposed, it will be difficult for him to hold onto this territory with his current strength.

Improving strength is a slow process that accumulates over time, so there is no rush.

He himself has just been promoted to the middle stage of Golden Core, and it is impossible to be promoted to the late stage of Golden Core in a short time.

The strength of the avatar has improved rapidly, but after all, the training time is too short. If the avatar can grow to the level of the red-haired youth last time, it should be able to compete with the Nascent Soul cultivator.

According to the Undead Demon King, it can be achieved by swallowing that ball of blood essence, but he still dare not do so.

Now the only ones who can quickly improve their strength are his group of subordinates.

Even if his personal strength has improved a lot, his effect will be very limited.

But the total number of monks under him is thousands of people, and each of them only needs to improve a little bit, and the sum of them is much stronger than his promotion level.

Since others are greedy for his purple fire obsidian, he might as well use it up and turn it into his own strength.

Thinking of this, he took out dozens of pieces of purple fire obsidian from the space, packed them in a few jade boxes, and left the City Lord's Mansion.

Next door to the City Lord's Mansion is the Research Institute Building. Huya and his researchers stay here every day to study various technologies in the world of cultivating immortals.

When Zhang He walked into a hall of the research institute, Huya and a group of people were pointing around a big iron bump, and they didn't even notice Zhang He was approaching.

Zhang He was not in a hurry to disturb everyone's interest, and stood by the side quietly listening to the discussion.

After listening for a while, he already understood that what everyone was discussing was the large transport vehicle that Zhang He had given them to make.

The bulky big iron bump in front of them was the first sample they designed. The technology was not yet mature, and it broke down just after starting it.

I think the refining material is too poor to withstand the infusion of spiritual energy. The material should be replaced.

The cost of changing materials is too high. I think the array should be changed to suit the materials.

I think there should be a problem with the design idea.

I think……

Zhang He now has some understanding of this big iron bump.

Everyone's design idea is to refine a large transportation tool that can fly off the ground.

But if you want to carry the material to fly, you must have a lot of spiritual support. In this way, the entire transportation vehicle is engraved with densely packed improved version of the spirit gathering array.

It's just that the refining material is steel, which cannot withstand too much aura impact, and is easily broken and damaged.

At this time, Zhang He couldn't help but said: We can make it into a car and walk on the ground, so that the consumption of spiritual energy will be greatly reduced, and only a small amount of spiritual energy is needed to drive the vehicle forward.

Because flying is a high-energy-consuming movement, in addition to moving forward, you must continue to fight against the gravity of the ground.

If you switch to running on the ground, you only need a forward traction force, which can save a lot of energy.

It turns out that the young master has arrived!

Meet the young master!

Several refiners saluted Zhang He at the same time.

Don't be too polite, everyone continue.

Zhang He waved his hands. These craftsmen were also relatively simple. Hearing this, they immediately continued the previous discussion, and directly refuted Zhang He's theory.

Although vehicles that walk on the ground can save a lot of spiritual energy, they must have a road to travel. If a large amount of materials are transported, the existing road surface cannot bear it.

It has to be said that the current infrastructure of the Great Zhou Dynasty is very poor.

Since immortal cultivators can fly, and if they want to be more comfortable, there are flying boats available, so the nobles are not interested in road construction.

In the case that the nobles don't spend money to build roads, you can imagine how bad these roads are.

Almost all roads are dirt, with potholes, especially on rainy days, the wheels often get stuck in the mud, and dust is flying all over the sky on sunny days.

Only a very small number of roads are paved with gravel, which will be slightly easier to walk.

This time, Zhang He requested to manufacture large-scale transportation vehicles. The existing road surface is not enough in load-bearing capacity, and the width of the road surface is not enough.

Unless you, my lord, even rebuild the road surface.

Those who engage in technology, when faced with technical problems, have long forgotten the importance of big and small, and refuted Zhang Helai without any sympathy.

Zhang He doesn't care about this either. For those who are technical, they should not be restrained by rules and regulations.

I'm planning to build a road specially for transport vehicles.

Next, Zhang He explained the design of trains and railways to everyone.

He didn't say it before, he just wanted to see how people in this world would make the transportation tools.

It seems that everyone has inertial thinking, and at this time they are still thinking about building aircraft.

Now I just wait for you to design the finished product, and I will organize people to build the road.

Everyone immediately entered into a new round of discussion, Zhang He didn't bother, but pulled Huya lightly.

When Huya came to his senses, he led him out of the hall, and the two of them entered a secret room.

Young master! What are your orders?

Recently, we have added a lot of Golden Core cultivators, and I need you to personally refine a batch of magic weapons.

When Zhang He said this, he took out dozens of jade boxes from the storage bag and placed them on the table one by one.

Huya opened a jade box, and a scorching breath came out of it immediately.

Are these purple fire obsidian?

That's right! I want you to use these materials to refine a batch of magic weapons. It's best to make some camouflage on the outside so that people can't see that it's made of purple fire obsidian.

The Golden Core cultivator under his command has a magic weapon refined from purple-red fire obsidian, which looks cool, but it is easy to cause disaster, so it is better to keep a low profile.

Zhang He made some requirements on the type of magic weapon and left the research institute.

In the next few days, he found Wen Sheng again and handed him a batch of purple fire obsidian, asking him to take it out quietly and exchange it for spirit stones or other resources to bring back.

Zhang He now needs a lot of spiritual stones, he wants to expand the space area, plant more spiritual medicines, in order to train more masters.

After making some arrangements, Zhang He entered the space and walked under the dark tree.

This tree was planted by him in the space, and it has been cultivated for more than a thousand years, but it has only grown a little, almost a few inches.

The three fruits hanging on the branches have only grown a little bit, and there is no sign of maturity so far.

Zhang He stroked the trunk, feeling the turbulent heat in it.

At this time, he picked a relatively straight branch, took out a magic weapon-level ax, aimed it at the branch, and chopped it off.

A small gap appeared on the branch, and at the same time, the raging heat from the branch instantly melted the sharp blade on the axe, forming a gap.

Swinging the ax again and again, chopping for a while, finally cut down the branch, and at the same time, the magic weapon in his hand was completely useless.

The cut branch is about the size of an egg, relatively straight, with only a black leaf hanging on it, and the branch is black from the inside to the outside.

Zhang He intends to refine this branch into a magic weapon.

He is very friendly to the fire element now, and a fireball technique can catch up with the power of a fire magic weapon.

Last time in the underground world, I got a lot of top-grade fire-type materials, just enough to refine a magic weapon together.

Before preparing the refining tool, Zhang He soaked these materials in spiritual spring water to improve their quality.

The refining of fire-type materials is more troublesome, because they are fire attributes, and only higher-grade flames can melt them.

In many cases, no higher-level flames could be found at all, so materials could not be smelted.

Finally, a refiner thought of a way, which is to use the monk's spiritual consciousness to guide the heat of the material itself, causing the internal flame to fall into chaos.

After the chaotic flames continued for a period of time, the original material structure changed, and self-melting began to appear.

In short, it is to use spiritual consciousness to guide its internal heat, melt it and then carry out the refining operation.
