After Qu Jianlei rested for half a month, he did a divination for Tian Yin. The conclusion was that it would be good to start retreat now.
Considering that Heavenly Demon's invasion would become more and more powerful, he took out Black Colt Tower and let Tian Yin, Bentley and Mu Yu enter the practice.
The team's several Black Colt Towers have now lost more than half, and Qu Jianlei is shutting down again to make new Black Colt Towers.
Another half month later, new news came, Heavenly Demon appeared on the Seven Stars Sect's territory.
This time there are two small teams of Heavenly Demon, both led by Heavenly Demon of the Golden Core Realm level.
Seven Stars Sect's alertness was not low, but Heavenly Demon's disguise was too strong, causing quite a bit of confusion before they could react.
Two stocks of Heavenly Demon were wiped out one after another, but the impact they brought was not so easy to eliminate.
The day after the news came, Ji Xiaohua came to the door again and asked Red Leaf Ridge to buy "the kind of Light Beam Weapon used on battleships".
Laser is not particularly useful against Heavenly Demon, but the characteristics of Wave-Particle Duality mean that it is not a pure physical attack.
For cultivators, except for Thunder Cultivator, light system and soul attacks, it is difficult to cause effective damage to Heavenly Demon.
When he was exploring the void last time, Ji Xiaohua noticed Red Leaf Ridge's attack method.
He knew that this was not a spiritual energy-driven method, and the attack effect could not keep up with Tree Race, let alone compare with Broken Blade.
But there is no doubt that it is still an effective attack method.
If used properly, it can even severely damage Nascent Soul Realm-level Heavenly Demon - but if you want to destroy it, you really need a lot of luck.
Red Leaf Ridge had previously kept silent about this weapon and refused all temptations, so it was hard for him to take the initiative to mention it.
But this time Seven Stars Sect appeared two shares of Heavenly Demon. Ji Family had a deep understanding of what happened before and after, and was a little frightened.
Most people know that Heavenly Demon's invasion is increasing in intensity. As the head of the family, Ji Xiaohua is under extraordinary pressure.
He was not sure when he would face a full-scale invasion by Heavenly Demon, but he believed that he could not wait any longer.
So this time, even if it made Red Leaf Ridge angry, he couldn't care less.
Qu Jianlei After hearing his request, he sat there and pondered, feeling a little strange in his heart.
When he was in the empire, it was very easy for him to obtain Energy Block, but it was a dream to trade for spiritual stones.
Almost all the spirit stones in the team were obtained through abnormal means.
Now it's good, someone wants to buy Energy Block with the spirit stone, and they are afraid that he won't sell it.
But... is Laser Weapon suitable for sale? "Fellow Daoist Ji, this is a serious matter and I want to discuss it with everyone."
Ji Xiaohua Diandian nodded to express understanding, "It should be."
However, other members of the team said that it's up to you, the boss, to make the decision on this kind of matter. "If you really can't make up your mind, you can figure it out."
Qu Jianlei was not so boring that he had to take care of such a trivial matter, so he quickly made a decision.
"There's no need to say anything about selling it. I can give you ten pieces. Don't tell anyone about it. Also, there are two big problems with it..."
The first question is of course Energy Block. There is no such thing as Energy Block in this world, and this substance is relatively excluded.
Just like in the empire, not to mention that there are no spirit stone mines, spirit stones cannot be preserved in ordinary ways.
Qu Jianlei comes with one million yuan Energy Block. After all, it is True Immortal who comes to open his mouth. Giving too little will not look good.
While emphasizing careful preservation, he pointed out another problem of Laser Weapon - it can even be said to be a disadvantage.
That is, people without any cultivation can use Laser Gun and Laser Cannon.
This is an advantage when dealing with Heavenly Demon, but for the Foundation Establishment Realm or Golden Core Realm practitioners, this is a hidden danger.
However, Ji Xiaohua didn't care at all about the hidden dangers he mentioned, saying that as long as they could be strictly controlled, it would be fine.
As long as Heavenly Demon can be effectively defended and attacked, other minor issues can be put aside for now.
Seriously, he wanted to find out something, "How many Energy Block did you consume in the last battle with Heavenly Demon?"
Qu Jianlei asked Xiao Hu, and then said that the main forces in the battle at that time were Wind Forgotten and Broken Blade, and Energy Block did not consume much.
Not counting the cost of navigation, but only counting the laser attack, it would be about more than five million yuan.
However, the Heavenly Demon they faced at that time was quite large, so the Energy Block sent out this time was not too small.
After Ji Xiaohua confirmed this, he asked if Ji Family also wanted to purchase Energy Block, at what price would it be? Red Leaf Ridge has already given away so much, he can't be so shameless and ask for it for free.
Qu Jianlei sighed in his heart again, things really have changed, and then gave an answer, "Buy one spiritual stone for ten yuan."
When the team set out from the empire, they carried more than 500 trillion pieces of Energy Block, and there are nearly 400 trillion pieces in existence.
Qu Jianlei has always had a strong sense of crisis and does not think this inventory is very rich.
After the team has established a foothold in the future, they will return to the empire, and they may face many battles in the future.
But even so, even if one-tenth of the inventory is consumed, the exchange ratio is ten to one, that is still four trillion spiritual stones...
He really didn't expect that the supplies that were originally intended for personal use could be exchanged for spiritual stones.
Ji Xiaohua heard this and said simply, "For ordinary spiritual stones, I brought 400,000 and replaced them all!"
He knew that the weapons he purchased were ordinary weapons, but these weapons could cause effective damage to Heavenly Demon, so he also brought Medium Spirit Stone and High-Grade Spirit Stone.
Since he brought it, he had to spend it. He didn't even test the weapon before he decided on it.
After the transaction was completed, he took his entourage to Yin Ridge to test the weapons, and visited Red Leaf Ridge again on the way back.
Ji Xiaohua said that he was quite satisfied with the power of this weapon, but... can he really not make it public at all? From the perspective of the clan leader, he hopes to give appropriate hints to the clansmen, which can at least stabilize people's hearts.
From the perspective of a Dongsheng cultivator, he doesn't want everyone else to be demonized, leaving only Red Leaf Ridge and Ji Family struggling.
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei sighed helplessly. He was actually quite confused about this issue.
Ji Family hopes that Dongsheng can have enough strength to protect himself, and so does he.
But if this thing is sold in large quantities, it will not only easily arouse suspicion from others, but more importantly, it may disrupt the entire society. Order
After a long silence, he sighed and smiled bitterly, "When I sold Energy Block to you, I guess I won't be able to go back..."
"But this thing comes from other worlds. I don't have much reserves. The key is that I don't know how many spiritual stones I should sell."
"That's easy to say," Ji Xiaohua said very simply, "I'll help you set the price. Anyway, they are looking for you to trade."
He finally understood why Ridge Lord Qu gave him weapons for free.
Otherworld's items will be affected by subjective perceptions of those who have experienced them, and it is indeed not easy to price.
But for Ji Xiaohua, there is no obstacle to pricing, just base it on your own feelings.
Anyway, the buyer will purchase directly from Red Leaf Ridge, so he is subjectively doing a favor.
Moreover, Ji Xiaohua also said that he would not deliberately publicize it, and other forces must fully and actively inquire before he will inform the details.
However, the Ji Family head still underestimated the cultivators' attention to Red Leaf Ridge.
After Ji Xiaohua went back, he announced to the tribe that he had obtained a special magic weapon to deal with Heavenly Demon, and He Jiuling came to the door the next day.
This is not because Ji Family has a mole, but because Jiuling True Immortal wants to inquire about something.
"Fellow Daoist Xiaohua, you came out of Red Leaf Ridge and went to Yin Ridge. I wonder why?"
The two of them were once in the same void exploration team, so asking about this was nothing.
The ten weapons obtained by Ji Xiaohua are five Laser Gun, two long and three short, as well as two Laser Sniper Rifle and two Laser Cannon.
There is also a ship-borne Laser Cannon, which can at least severely damage Golden Core Realm Heavenly Demon with one shot - provided it can be aimed.
Two days later, He Jiuling came to visit Red Leaf Ridge, "Fellow Daoist Qu, you can't favor one over the other."
He spent over 10,000 Medium Spirit Stone and 500,000 ordinary spiritual stones, and took away weapons with the same configuration as Ji Xiaohua.
A few days later, Li Yuren from Emerald Screen Mountain also came over, spending a total of more than 20,000 Medium Spirit Stone and one million ordinary spiritual stones.
After all, I am in Twelve Greats, so my confidence is different.
Qu Jianlei was also a little speechless. The weapons he sold were all his own junk.
Needless to say, those individual weapons, even the ship-based Laser Cannon, were dismantled from dilapidated battleships.
From the Empire to Federation to the Alliance to the Cangwu Realm, how many battleships did the team destroy?
It's really just waste recycling, but it's enough for them to buy another piece of land in Liuguang City - it must be larger than one square kilometer.
Otherwise, the arms business is really hugely profitable.
But Li Yuren didn't feel cheated at all. After the purchase, he even asked about the magic weapon to detect Heavenly Demon.
He knew that Red Leaf Ridge had the means to identify Heavenly Demon, and he also knew that he could not ask for details, otherwise he would be offended.
However, he strongly requested that Red Leaf Ridge develop a magic weapon as soon as possible - an ordinary product would do, as long as it could assist in the investigation of Heavenly Devil Qi.
Just like the mundane weapons they purchased, they didn't expect to be foolproof, as long as they could help a little.
Qu Jianlei frowned and replied, "The team is currently developing similar products, but... there is a lack of control."
He is indeed considering this issue and has already come up with a corresponding plan.
The plan is somewhat similar to the Identification Card he made before, but it also absorbs the principle of the detector and is an active detection type.
There are two problems now. One of them is that active exploration requires power, but the ready-made power system consumes Energy Block.
Changing the power system to spiritual stone will take some time, but it is not very difficult. Just test it a few times.
In other words, if he actually wants to replace the power of Laser Weapon with a spiritual stone, it may not be that difficult.
He is currently solving this problem, but he has not yet decided which power is appropriate to use in the future.
Qu Jianlei's tendency is to walk on two legs, get it out first, and then make a choice, or simply use both sets.
But the biggest problem in exploring Heavenly Devil Qi is... there must be some samples for reference, right?
