Chapter 180: Strength Greatly Increased

As the three Paper Generals and more than twenty Paper Colonels entered the Yinjian military camp, the strength of the entire Yinjian Paper Army became increasingly powerful.

Now the Yinjian already had eight Paper Generals and more than eighty Paper Colonels, plus twenty thousand heavy-armored Paper Soldiers.

Such power would cause an earthquake-like effect anywhere in the human world, but for the entire Yinjian, it was hard to stir up much of a splash.

In the residence of the corpse-driving craftsmen in the military camp, Jiang's Third Aunt and the Jiang family's Great Elder sat opposite each other, while other clansmen stood guard outside the door.

"Big Brother, why did you say that earlier?"

Only then did Jiang Yujin ask her doubts directly. She was also hearing about things like the Yinsi and the Yin Son of Heaven for the first time.

"Third Sister, do you know what my first feeling was when I came here?"

Jiang Qingsong's old face looked very spirited at this moment, as if he had taken some kind of great tonic.

"Don't keep me in suspense, speak quickly!"

"Hehe, I once saw some murals in an ancient tomb, and those murals depicted some scenes of the Yinjian."

Jiang Qingsong spoke of what he had encountered in the past as if recalling it.

"Only then did I know that the Yinjian of the ancient era was not the Yinjian of today's world. In that era, there were indeed Shenren in the heavens, and the Yinjian even had a Yin Son of Heaven who governed life and death!"

"Coming here and seeing such a magnificent military camp, my past memories suddenly flooded my heart, and I couldn't help but think of the Yin army camp under the Yin Son of Heaven on those murals!"

"Combined with what you said, I guessed that the Great One's ambition is definitely not small. Perhaps he wants to rebuild the Yinsi and become the Yin Son of Heaven!"

Speaking of this, Jiang Qingsong looked quite excited, as if he had already seen the future.

"That Great One denied your statement!"

Jiang Yujin didn't think so. Although she had only been relying on the other party for a short time, she understood that the other party's will would definitely not be swayed by small people like them.

"You, you, you are still so stubborn!"

"Hey, those great figures, even the Emperor, do not want their thoughts to be guessed by others. It is naturally normal for him to deny my statement!"

But Jiang Qingsong was exceptionally firm. He belonged to the type of person who had become cunning with age. Having experienced countless power struggles, he naturally had some confidence in his grasp of human nature.

"Even if it is as you say, this Great One has great ambitions, what should we do?"

"Anyway, I can't get off the boat now. I only hope to get that Golden Corpse back before I die, so as not to fail the family's cultivation."

Jiang Yujin was not very interested in these things; after all, she didn't have such deep thoughts as the other party.

"Hehe, it's just a Golden Corpse. If that Great One doesn't give it, he doesn't give it. The important thing is that we have latched onto such a big thigh now!"

"From now on, our Jiang family must lean toward this Great One. If he really has the ambition to become the Yin Son of Heaven, then our Jiang family will definitely become the greatest contributor!"

"As long as we succeed, the Jiang family's future is promising!"

A somewhat fanatical smile appeared on Jiang Qingsong's face. The benefits of helping the Yin Son of Heaven ascend to the throne would be ten or a hundred times greater than helping a human emperor in the mortal world!

"Click, click, click."

In the stone house, the Shuangzi Gui merged into a Ghost Iron statue again and stood up.

Lin Feng naturally couldn't have only one Ghost Iron statue; this thing was originally a consumable specifically for him to explore the Yinjian.

Once he confirmed every part, he could mass-produce them through the Blacksmith Paper Soldiers.

However, the Ghost Iron statue in front of him was still the one he had made before, and its quality was considered top-tier. Wearing top-tier Ghost Soldier armor and holding a top-tier Ghost Soldier Fangtian Painted Halberd, a powerful General was completed.

"Next, go to the Ghost Market and see. This time I must get more corpse oil candles back!"

Lin Feng looked at the Ghost Soldier heavy-armored General in front of him, thought for a while, and directly took out five Black Jade Dark Gold Talismans and handed them to it.

With these five talismans, plus the two talismans that hadn't been used before, it was enough to deal with most things.

After putting away these Black Jade Dark Gold Talismans, the Ghost Iron statue turned into a black light and disappeared.

Under Lin Feng's control, it headed straight for the location where the Ghost Market would appear.

The movement of the Ghost Market had a specific pattern, but ordinary people simply didn't have the qualifications to come into contact with such secrets.

Back then, the old Taoist priest also relied on the inheritance of Xuande Mountain to know some of the rules and taboos of the Ghost Market.

And Lin Feng learned the relevant information directly through the memory of the sheep herder. At this time, finding the yellow mud road to enter the Ghost Market was naturally very easy.

According to the sheep herder's memory, the Ghost Market should have moved to the northern Zhangzhou territory by now, and the specific location would need to be found by getting closer.

While waiting for the Ghost Iron statue to reach Zhangzhou, Lin Feng began to let the Blacksmith Paper Soldiers forge the second batch of Ghost Soldiers.

"Now there are more and more ores with perfect quality. With this kind of ore and the forging method I improved, it stands to reason that the Blacksmith Paper Soldiers can also make mid-grade weapon embryos. After completing the weapon sacrifice, they can get top-tier Ghost Soldiers."

"Although it's a bit wasteful, if you want to mass-produce, this is already the best way."

"Now it's a bit shabby for the Paper Colonels, whose strength is close to top-tier True Immortals, to use mid-grade Ghost Soldiers."

"At the very least, they must be top-tier Ghost Soldiers to be worthy of their strength. As for the Paper Generals, they still need top-tier Ghost Soldiers to satisfy their combat power."

Thinking of this, Lin Feng directly started letting the Blacksmith Paper Soldiers act.

"Boom~"

As the golden ghost fire in the coal furnace began to rise, ores with perfect quality began to be thrown into it for calcination.

Soon, as these ores were burned red by the ghost fire, the Blacksmith Paper Soldiers took them out and began to forge them.

"Ding~ ding~ dang~"

More than twenty Blacksmith Paper Soldiers had a reasonable division of labor; some were specifically responsible for clamping the ore, and some were specifically responsible for forging.

After forging to remove the slag from the ore, what remained was the real Ghost Iron.

Then it was calcined again, and then repeatedly forged. Finally, these Ghost Irons, completely free of slag and impurities, would be taken away by another batch of Blacksmith Paper Soldiers.

At this point, it was the key step of forging and shaping.

To ensure the quality of the forged weapon embryos, Lin Feng specially improved the forging method.

Through the new Blacksmith Paper Soldiers, the Ghost Iron was placed on a pre-made anvil mold with indentations for forging.

Finally, the shape, size, and weight of the Ghost Soldiers forged in this way could be guaranteed to be consistent.

Moreover, during the whole process, the Blacksmith Paper Soldiers would no longer cause the forged things to deform due to other reasons, and the success rate would undoubtedly be greatly improved.

Soon, the new long spear weapon embryo was formed. Lin Feng tried it in his hand and found that it was indeed a mid-grade weapon embryo!

"Haha, good!"

"Immediately carry out polishing and quenching, and after completion, directly carry out weapon sacrifice!"

With such a result, it meant that he could mass-produce top-tier Ghost Soldiers next, and the strength of the Paper Colonels would be improved again! ===== CHAPTER 181 =====
