Chapter 333: Gongshu

"Wang Zhan, how is the news you inquired about?"

Su Fan and Wang Zhan's group arrived in the Qinling area, outside the Mohist Mechanism City, for a few days. However, they were not the main force attacking the Mohist Mechanism City. Being able to come here was entirely thanks to Wang Zhan borrowing Wang Jian's tiger skin.

Fortunately, Wang Jian's tiger skin was big enough; the Great Qin army, from top to bottom, didn't stop Wang Zhan and the others from coming.

"There is some news. These days, the Empire's army is indeed attacking the Mohist Mechanism City, but the effect is not great, and quite a few troops and horses have been lost."

"The Mohist Mechanism City is built in the mountains. The road up is extremely difficult, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack. Secondly, inside the mechanism city, there are mechanisms everywhere. Even if the Empire's soldiers went up the mountain, facing the heavy mechanisms, they suffered heavy losses."

Wang Zhan said this with a furrowed brow, also worried about the losses of the great army.

The Mohist School is not that simple. One had to know that before, when Great Qin hadn't unified the world, the number of Mohist disciples was extremely terrifying, once making all countries vigilant. It was also under the secret suppression of various countries.

The Mohist School slowly declined, but even so, the Mohist School could still be considered one of the top few among the Hundred Schools of Thought.

Now that Great Qin has unified the world, most of the Mohists have surrendered to the Empire, and the remaining ones are all remnants opposing the Empire.

This number, compared to the previous Mohist School, I'm afraid not even one-tenth remains.

However, the number of Mohist disciples is still quite large. According to the news he inquired about, the Mohist remnants hiding in this Mohist Mechanism City are at least ten thousand.

Backed by the Mechanism City, the Empire's army wants to attack, I'm afraid they need even greater losses.

"You don't have to worry. You can see it, and those in the Empire can definitely see it. The Mohist Mechanism City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, especially the mechanism art is very terrifying and difficult to crack. However, isn't it enough to find a mechanism expert to come?"

"As long as the mechanism art of the Mechanism City is cracked, even if it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it won't be able to stump the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire."

The biggest threat of the Mechanism City is still those mechanism arts, which are very powerful. But once the mechanisms are broken, then in close-quarters combat, the Great Qin Empire's army is not something the Mohist disciples can compare to.

Although the Mohist disciples are all considered elites in cultivation, on the battlefield, it is always the battlefield of the military school; the rest of the Hundred Schools of Thought are just delivering food on the battlefield.

"Mechanism expert, Mr. Gongshu."

Wang Zhan thought of this upon hearing it. Today, when he went to inquire about news in the army, he saw an old man. Many generals were respectful to this old man, calling the other party "Mr. Gongshu," so the Empire's high-level officials had already thought of a way.

"Hmm! You met someone from the Gongshu family?"

Su Fan was curious.

"Hmm! Today an old man came to the army, surnamed Gongshu. He is very likely from the Gongshu family. The Gongshu family has always been at odds with the Mohist School. It seems this time, the Mohist School will be lively."

Wang Zhan was also happy immediately.

"Mohist School and Gongshu School."

Su Fan looked into the distance. "I heard that the Mohist School and the Gongshu School both have mechanism beasts they built themselves, and the mechanism beasts are all very powerful. Have you seen them, Wang Zhan?"

"Mechanism beasts, I have heard of them and seen them, but they are all small ones without much power. The ones you are talking about should be the Mohist School's Four Sacred Beast Mechanism Beasts, which are said to be truly very powerful, not inferior to the combat power of the Profound Mastery Realm."

"It is said that they were built by the ancestor of the Mohist School and have been passed down, which can be considered the Mohist School's deepest trump card. The Mohist School has experienced crises many times and survived by relying on these Four Sacred Beast Mechanism Beasts."

"They really exist? And they have the combat power of the Profound Mastery Realm?"

Su Fan was greatly shocked upon hearing this. The combat power of the Profound Mastery Realm is roughly equivalent to above the Golden Core Realm in the main world. Even if it is not the Nascent Soul, it is at least a top-tier Golden Core combat power.

In this way, that mechanism sacred beast has the lethality comparable to the top-tier Golden Core. How could this not make Su Fan excited?

If he could get the method of refining it, returning to the main world in the future, wouldn't he be able to refine puppets comparable to the Golden Core?

Of course, Su Fan was clear that refining this mechanism beast must be extremely difficult, and the materials must also be exceptionally precious. Otherwise, the Mohist School has had it for thousands of years, and there are still only four mechanism sacred beasts.

However, materials are hard to find in this world. Perhaps the top-tier experts of this world are not inferior to those Nascent Soul or even Primordial Spirit experts in the main world.

But the volume of the world is inevitably not as good as the main world. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the area of the world, this world is still in the range of the Blue Star. Even if it is a hundred times larger than the Earth in the previous life, compared to the main world, it is still very small.

How big is the main world? Su Fan doesn't know. I'm afraid even those Nascent Soul big shots don't know.

But Su Fan knows that Zheng Guo alone is not smaller than the Earth's area.

And Zheng Guo is just the smallest country in the Southern Wilderness Ten Kingdoms, and the Southern Wilderness is just a remote area in the cultivation world.

Comparing this, the volume of this world is far smaller than the main world.

Su Fan is clear that it is not that it is impossible to refine this mechanism sacred beast, but the Mohist School doesn't have this resource.

If it were Ying Zheng, Su Fan believes that as long as someone knows how to refine it, not to mention providing mechanism sacred beasts continuously, just having another double the quantity is no problem.

And Su Fan doesn't ask to refine Golden Core or Nascent Soul mechanism puppets all at once, but Foundation Establishment or Purple Mansion is a great improvement for the Su family.

If it were truly a Golden Core or Nascent Soul puppet, it might not be a good thing.

Unless at that time, Su Fan has enough powerful strength.

An innocent man is not guilty, but his treasure is his crime. If the Su family doesn't have powerful strength to protect it, then this secret technique, once known by others.

One can imagine the ending; it must be very miserable.

Just like before, the spirit root in the Purple Mansion cave that the Su family obtained, the number of people in the Su family who knew about it was less than five.

At that time, the Su family didn't have enough strength to protect it. But if Su Fan returns to the main world this time, he won't be afraid.

Because at that time, he believes that after his divine soul returns to the main world, he can inevitably open up the Purple Mansion in a short time and become a cultivator at the Purple Mansion level.

Reaching this realm, the Su family's status in Zheng Guo will be different. Even if he takes out a few Foundation Establishment puppets, or even Purple Mansion puppets, there won't be too much danger.

Even if people know that the Su family has the secret technique to refine puppets, the Yunyang Sect will only try to find a way to trade for it, rather than snatching it by force.

In this regard, the Yunyang Sect is still not bad. At least compared to those sects in other countries, their reputation is much better.

In the Zheng Guo cultivation world, most cultivators still trust the Yunyang Sect.

But Su Fan is clear that if the Su family has the secret technique to refine Golden Core level puppets, then it might be different. ===== CHAPTER 334 =====
