Chapter 391: Have the Kind of Hand-to-Hand Combat

After hugging Li Zhi, Wei Yuan led the army back to Qingming. This time he led the army to attack ten thousand li, facing completely strange mountain people, but the results were unexpectedly good.

On the way back, Wei Yuan kept reviewing the whole battle situation.

Eshan was exactly ten thousand li away from Qingming, and at this time Qingming's range was three hundred li, which meant that within fifteen thousand li, Wei Yuan's combat strength Dao Foundation had improved. Under the blessing of the ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains, the soldiers' rate of fire had improved, the barrage was continuous, and the killing effect was unexpectedly good.

Thinking back to the great power of the Immaculate Reincarnation when dealing with the little monk Honglian, Wei Yuan faintly felt that he might have underestimated the power of the continuous bombardment of flying swords. Just like when he first developed the "Flowing Water Blade Technique," he didn't expect the power to be so great.

As long as ordinary fire guns form a continuous barrage, the killing effect in the open area of the battlefield is also unexpected. Perhaps he should consider improving the rate of fire?

The power of a gun on the battlefield depends on many factors: rate of fire, control, the power of the flying sword itself, production difficulty, etc., etc. Wei Yuan thought of dozens of factors that needed to be considered at will, and felt a headache. But this was a big matter and had to be thought through, not allowing a little carelessness.

But Wei Yuan suddenly thought that there were tens of thousands of mortals in the ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains, and these guys had retained some memories of their previous lives, without the need for re-education. These guys were idle all day, idle to the point of worshiping when handing something over, and worshiping for half a day. There were not enough immortal plants for them to worship, and they had to carve statues to worship.

Since this was the case, why not call them to study together? Anyway, just treat it as an idle move, and it doesn't matter if they can't research anything.

So Wei Yuan entered the ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains, transmitted his intention, passed down the structure of the existing flying sword gun, and let these mortals try to improve it, while letting them refer to Xu Wenwu's materials.

After arranging the task, Wei Yuan put this matter behind him, anyway, he didn't expect these people to really research anything.

Up to now, gun improvement, one was to absorb inspiration from Xu Wenwu's materials, and the other was to rely on Yu Zhizhuo's design and refining.

As for ammunition, gunpowder was the key. Without Sun Yu's improved gunpowder formula, fire guns would still be chicken ribs. Just thinking about the new gunpowder, Wei Yuan felt a pain in his flesh. The new gunpowder was several times more expensive than the old one, and after the rate of fire was raised, the ammunition consumption increased sharply during the war. Every time he heard a gunshot, Wei Yuan felt that immortal silver was burning.

Therefore, Wei Yuan had been ruthless every time he asked for a ransom recently.

Just as the large army returned to Qingming, Yu Zhizhuo sent someone to find Wei Yuan, asking him to come over to help catch spirit objects. Wei Yuan was also very curious about what kind of spirit object could make Yu Zhizhuo think about it day and night.

The traces of the spirit object appeared in the new mineral vein in the northwest of the domain. This mineral vein was located four hundred li northwest of the domain, already outside the domain. Yu Zhizhuo explored along the earth vein all the way, explored more than one hundred li in one breath, and finally found this mineral vein.

According to Yu Zhizhuo, there were a large number of associated spirit minerals in this mineral vein, belonging to a supreme-rank mineral vein, with immeasurable value, and the suggestion was to build a city to guard it.

The location of the mineral vein was still in the Shaman domain heaven and earth, with Shaman tribes appearing from time to time, which was quite dangerous. In order to protect the exploration team, Wei Yuan specially sent two thousand elite soldiers to be dispatched by Yu Zhizhuo. During this period, they repelled several small groups of Shaman tribe harassment before building the mine.

When Wei Yuan arrived, Yu Zhizhuo was setting up an array, and he had also pulled Sun Yu and Old Daoist Chuhe over to help set up the array together.

The entrance to the mine was at the bottom of a small hill. After digging away the soil, it was all ore with red spots, and there were mineral layers with golden stripes inside.

"Uncle Master Yu, what kind of spirit object is it, to make such a big fuss?" Wei Yuan asked.

"It's a mass of gold-nature essence, it looks like a mass of blue light, it can move in the mineral vein, very rare. I have already set up an array to limit it to a certain range, but this range is still too large, and it is difficult for us few people to catch it, and it has slipped away several times. That's why I asked you to come and help."

Wei Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse, followed Yu Zhizhuo down the mine, and guarded in a spacious natural cave. Wei Yuan stood still in the center of the cave, and just as Yu Zhizhuo left, he saw a mass of blue light emerge from the cave wall, a small light ball poked its head out, and after seeing Wei Yuan, it spat a piece of ore with a "peh."

Wei Yuan grabbed the ore in his hand, flashed, and appeared in front of the blue light, grabbing it.

The blue light didn't dodge, and only escaped when Wei Yuan's fingers were about to touch it, not forgetting to spit a handful of mud at Wei Yuan on the way.

Wei Yuan was furious! He had never seen such an arrogant spirit object!

But when he took back his hand and looked, he saw a crystal-clear gemstone in his right hand, and there was actually a small immortal mountain floating in it. Although Wei Yuan didn't know what this was, he knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary spirit material, and it must be very expensive, especially expensive, very expensive!

The mud in his left hand was full of spiritual energy, and there were golden particles in it, which looked like spirit gold or meta-copper, in short, all rare spirit materials.

After being spat on twice by the spirit object, Wei Yuan obtained thousands of taels of immortal silver out of thin air. In an instant, Wei Yuan's resentment disappeared, and he felt that it was very reasonable to be arrogant. Wei Yuan suspected that there might be another reason why Sun Yu and True Person Chuhe couldn't catch this spirit object for a long time.

At this time, a stone suddenly fell from above, smashing toward Wei Yuan's head. Wei Yuan reached out to catch it, and his net worth increased by another thousand taels of immortal silver.

After several exchanges, Wei Yuan found that this spirit object's speed was incredibly fast. Even if his hand fell within its palm, whether it was changing or suddenly accelerating, it could calmly escape, and by the way, humiliate Wei Yuan.

Although Wei Yuan welcomed humiliation, not being able to catch it was not the way. So Wei Yuan cheered up, and when the spirit object appeared again, the surrounding world suddenly turned into black and white, and everything appeared grainy.

The spirit object exclaimed, wanting to drill into the rock wall, but was bounced out. It seemed to have hit quite heavily, swaying and retreating, dropping countless spirit materials and treasures along the way, clanging, almost making Wei Yuan's Dao heart lose its guard and bend down to pick them up.

Fortunately, Wei Yuan could still distinguish the importance; enabling the Yin-Yang boundary once cost three strands of heavenly luck, which was much more expensive than spirit materials and treasures. He dropped his large hand and grabbed the spirit object. At this time, Wei Yuan's five fingertips were full of blue ice glass qi, freezing the spirit object into an ice crystal.

Returning to the ground, Wei Yuan handed the spirit object to Yu Zhizhuo. This mass of spirit object looked like it had no physical body, but it was born with spirituality.

Yu Zhizhuo was overjoyed, carefully sealed it, then let out a long breath and said to Wei Yuan: "Nephew, you have really helped me a lot!"

"What is the use of this thing?" Not only Wei Yuan, but Sun Yu and True Person Chuhe were also very curious. They had been catching this little thing for three whole days, and their net worth had increased by nearly one hundred thousand immortal silver, but they hadn't succeeded.

Yu Zhizhuo didn't hide it either, saying: "With it, you can slightly adjust the material properties within a certain range. This kind of adjustment itself is not of much value, but it can quickly master the material properties by comparing the differences before and after adjustment. Some immortal materials may only have a small piece in the whole world, and it is extremely difficult to study their properties. With this treasure, this matter can be solved easily. This is a priceless treasure for weapon refining.

With this thing, my Dharma Form path will have no obstacles, and I only need to accumulate a little more material knowledge to break through the barrier. In the future, if I can go one step further, it can also serve as the foundation of a cave heaven."

!.

Everyone was moved. However, this thing only had special functions for master weapon refiners like Yu Zhizhuo, and for others who didn't refine weapons, the value was greatly reduced.

Yu Zhizhuo bowed to Wei Yuan and said: "This is the grace of achieving the Dao, I cannot thank you enough!"

Returning to Qingming, Wei Yuan was in a very good mood. If Yu Zhizhuo could become a Dharma Form, the domain's strength and foundation would definitely go up another level. And listening to what he meant, with this mass of gold-nature essence, there was hope for the future.

Returning to his residence, Wei Yuan had just pushed open the courtyard door when a wisp of sword qi rested on the back of his head, and then a cold and pleasant voice sounded: "The mouth is so big, but the ability is not very good!"

Wei Yuan was not panicked and said indifferently: "If you have the kind, put down the sword, and let's have hand-to-hand combat."

"Who's having hand-to-hand combat with you!" The person behind him kicked Wei Yuan down, stepped on him, and said coldly: "If it were a life-and-death battle, you would be a dead person now!"

The foot is so soft... Wei Yuan hurriedly cleared the thoughts that shouldn't be there.

Recently, the mortals in the Dao Foundation prayed every day, and the content was abnormally outrageous. Wei Yuan heard too much, and his thoughts were inevitably a bit strange. Wei Yuan felt that he had to rectify these mortals.

"If it were really a life-and-death battle, the one who died would definitely be you. Why, without immortal swords and spirit treasures, you can't fight?"

"Nonsense! Do I need to rely on external forces?"

Wei Yuan sneered: "Don't you need to? I see your physical body is not very good, which third-rank blessed land did you steal the Body Forging method from?"
