Chapter 542

Attacking the Gloomy Shaman kingdom is a matter for later, the top priority right now is to be able to escape.

It was just that Wei Yuan discovered the weak essence of the Gloomy Shaman kingdom, and Master Shu Li's kingdom was even weaker, which suddenly gave him thoughts that shouldn't be there.

Wei Yuan suppressed the thoughts that shouldn't be there, starting to discuss the strategy for escaping, while also issuing missions in the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo.

Yu Yu Zhizhuo said: "There are two Daoist techniques that can be used, one is the Melting Gold Technique, in the Heavenly Work Hall we often use this technique to make gold-type materials easier to melt and process. The second is the Transforming Earth Technique, making earth-type materials become soft and fine. However, Cold Iron and Nether Soil are not ordinary materials, naturally having strong resistance to Daoist techniques, so these two Daoist techniques need to be further improved.

I have made some modifications to the two spell templates myself for my own use. This is the spell template, you take it and use it first, the effect should be much stronger than the original version, perhaps effective against Cold Iron and Nether Soil. I will make further modifications based on the physical properties of Cold Iron and Nether Soil, but it will take a few days."

Once these words were spoken, everyone in the room looked sideways. Wei Yuan still remembered that there was a person in the Tai Chu Palace who deeply improved the Water Blade Technique, named Pei Tinghai.

Every benchmark Daoist technique was improved countless times by countless generations, and only after being tempered a thousand times was it promoted. Those who could improve these Daoist techniques were all geniuses among geniuses.

Yu Yu Zhizhuo took out a piece of jade paper, handing the improved self-use versions of the two spells to Wei Yuan.

Everyone discussed for a while, and there was no better way, so they dispersed, each busy with their own work.

At this time, the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo suddenly popped up a new plan, pushing it directly in front of Wei Yuan.

This new plan originated from a suggestion by a Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick, with the core idea that the Gloomy Cold Realm was between virtual and real, and all living things existed and were active in the form of Primordial Spirits. Since it was a Primordial Spirit, there was naturally no need to be confined to the form of a physical body; in terms of pressure resistance, the best form was a ball.

The following long-winded text was all arguing about the benefits of a ball. Since it was a Primordial Spirit, spiritual sense could be used to replace eyes, and there was no need for hands and feet to cast Daoist techniques. If one wanted to move, rolling and bouncing were much faster than two legs, second only to spray tubes.

In addition, purely from the perspective of resisting pressure, this ball was naturally the smaller the better; if it could be several hundred or several thousand times smaller than the micro-worms in the water, that would be even better.

The latter part was purely armchair strategy. The size of the Primordial Spirit was fixed and couldn't be changed at will, but the form could really be changed...

After reading this plan, Wei Yuan tried for half an hour, finally retracting the arms and legs of his Primordial Spirit, and the neck was also gone, the torso correspondingly expanded a little, and he could only be like this for the time being. The current Wei Yuan was still some distance from a perfect ball, only able to be said to be a plump potato.

But the pressure resistance was really improved in a straight line. Returning to the Gloomy Cold Realm again, Wei Yuan felt that he could live for two cups of tea, which was not a problem.

At this time, a group of mortals gathered together in the central city of the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo, building a small building, and a tablet was erected at the entrance, inscribed: Structural Mechanics Research Institute.

The first research project of this research institute was how to build a cave under extreme heavy pressure.

Wei Yuan's heart stirred, turning into a mortal, pulling a few people who were building the house to ask why they wanted to use this name.

These few mortals were also honest, honestly saying that they got the inspiration from Xu Xu Wenwu's data. Pure mechanics research was both boring and low-end, but adding prefixes like structure, fluid, etc., the temperament was immediately different, otherwise it couldn't suppress other research institutes.

Wei Yuan clearly couldn't wait for their first research result. He returned to his residence and entered the Gloomy Cold Realm again.

A moment later, Wei Yuan forgot about things and himself, feeling the extreme pressure again. But after turning into a potato form, he really felt much more relaxed.

Wei Yuan didn't hesitate at all, casting the Melting Gold Technique and Transforming Earth Technique one after another, releasing over two hundred Daoist techniques in the time of half a cup of tea. After releasing over a hundred Melting Gold Techniques, Wei Yuan finally felt that a small piece of the gold mountain above had become slightly soft, so he made a decisive decision, shooting a light red sword aura!

Under the cutting of the Moon Laurel Immortal Tree's sword aura, a piece of Cold Iron the size of a fist was finally shattered. Wei Yuan was quick-eyed and quick-handed, immediately collecting it into his Dharma Form, and then moved his body to squeeze a part into this extra space the size of a fist, finally feeling a little more relaxed.

Wei Yuan then took a mass of misty gold aura from the Langya Divine Wood, blowing it into the Cold Iron in front of him with his mouth.

As a gold-type Immortal Plant, the rank of the Langya Divine Wood was one level higher than the Gloomy Cold Iron. Under the infiltration of the misty gold aura, the Cold Iron became soft, and the gloomy cold inside dissipated by more than half.

Wei Yuan immediately blew out a wisp of true fire, and after a moment, finally heated this piece of Cold Iron to a temperature where even steel could melt. But at such a high temperature, this piece of Cold Iron only became a little soft. If it weren't for the infiltration of the misty gold aura, this piece of Cold Iron wouldn't even be soft at all.

After the Cold Iron softened to a certain degree, Wei Yuan had another wisp of scarlet sword aura in his hand, cutting down a piece of Cold Iron the size of a human head with force, and collecting it into the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo. At this time, his endurance had reached the limit, so he exited the Gloomy Cold Realm and returned to Qingming.

After waking up in Qingming, Wei Yuan tried to manifest the two pieces of Cold Iron, and as expected, they appeared in the Human World. But after the two pieces of Cold Iron, one big and one small, fell to the ground, they directly smashed through the floor tiles and then disappeared into the soil!

Wei Yuan swept with his spiritual sense, discovering that the two pieces of Cold Iron had already sunk half a zhang into the soil. Don't look at these two pieces of Cold Iron as not big, but they weighed several thousand jin, dozens of times heavier than gold or something.

Wei Yuan retrieved the two pieces of Cold Iron and went to find Yu Yu Zhizhuo, asking him to research the physical properties to see if he could find a better way to handle them. Otherwise, whether it was the Langya Divine Wood's misty gold aura or the Moon Laurel Immortal Tree's moon flower sword aura, they were all nurtured for a very long time, and even if all were used up, they wouldn't be able to open a space of a few feet square.

When Wei Yuan walked into Yu Yu Zhizhuo's courtyard, he was lying on the desk, focusing on deducing spell templates, with eight jade papers floating in front of him, all filled with various data.

Wei Yuan walked into the study, and Yu Yu Zhizhuo didn't even lift his head, saying: "You're back? Sit down first, wait for me to finish calculating this data, very soon..."

No content missed, read it all at once!

Before his voice fell, his nose twitched, and he gasped: "What is this smell, so good?"

A small golden bird suddenly flew out from between his eyebrows, pouncing on the Cold Iron in Wei Yuan's hand, and stayed there, refusing to get up no matter what.

Yu Yu Zhizhuo put down his paper and pen, took a step forward, carefully holding the small piece of Cold Iron, looking at it for a long time, even sticking out his tongue to lick it, and then his voice trembled: "This, this is Ten Thousand Year Cold Abyss Nether Iron! One tael of Nether Iron has a market price of ten taels of immortal silver, this small piece is over two hundred jin, worth at least twenty thousand taels of immortal silver!"

The piece Wei Yuan was holding was the size of a human head, weighing over two thousand jin. Wei Yuan was somewhat stunned; was he holding twenty thousand taels of immortal silver? If so, his trip to the Gloomy Cold Realm didn't seem to be a loss.

Yu Yu Zhizhuo said: "I originally thought it was Gloomy Cold Iron, I didn't expect it to be Ten Thousand Year Cold Abyss Nether Iron! Oh, Cold Iron is a magic treasure level material, one jin is worth one tael of immortal silver, but Nether Iron is an Imperial View spirit treasure level material, the price is a hundred times that of Cold Iron, and it is quite rare.

Generally, if spirit treasures are doped with Nether Iron, they can have rare attributes such as gloomy cold, annihilation, and gloomy underworld. As long as a little Nether Iron is added to our city defense cannons, the strength of the cannon barrel will be significantly improved, enough to use magic treasure level gunpowder."

After saying a whole bunch in one breath, Yu Yu Zhizhuo suddenly remembered one thing, asking: "Is this the thing pressing on your head?"

"Yes."

Yu Yu Zhizhuo's voice started to tremble again: "You just said, how much was it?"

Wei Yuan's expression was wooden, saying: "It's about... a mountain."
