"Fifty-one portions!? Fifty-one portions of Immortal Refined Gold?"

Gu Jinlai, surprises have been a constant in people's eyes.

After obtaining twenty-two portions of Immortal Refined Gold from the Cold Moon Sect, he only had about twenty portions left to refine the Cheng Ying Mecha.

Even taking into account the losses during the refining process, there would be a shortage of at most thirty or forty portions.

The reason he rushed to Lanzhou and controlled the Xuan Bird fighter jet to kill Demonic Beasts was that he wanted to exchange his merits for immortal refined gold.

However, the price of exchanging merit points for Immortal Essence is much higher than the actual price of Immortal Essence.

Exchanging one unit of Immortal Refined Gold is equivalent to exchanging one unit of a superior Spirit Artifact.

In reality, if one has a Celestial Master to refine it, the true price of an Immortal Refined Gold is only one-fifth of the market price.

The Demonic Beasts of Lanzhou retreated too quickly, and the Demonic Beasts King did not even show up. It has been believed Gu Jinlai that the merits gained in this battle may not be enough to exchange for a dozen or twenty portions of Immortal Refined Gold.

Unexpectedly...

The situation took an unexpected turn.

The two True Lords, Jing Yunshan and Cheng Lixue, actually possessed as many as fifty-one portions of Immortal Refined Gold!

Now he had more than enough materials to refine the Cheng Ying mecha.

Is that too little?

Cheng Lixue glanced at the Xuan Bird fighter jet behind Gu Jinlai: "To forge such a massive war Spirit Artifact, the amount of Immortal Refined Gold required would probably be five or six hundred portions, right? Fifty-one portions, that's probably less than one-tenth..."

"No! That's enough!"

Gu Jinlai said in a deep voice, "Our Lingxiao City has collected a considerable amount of Immortal Refined Gold beforehand. Combined with your fifty-one portions of Immortal Refined Gold, it's just enough for us to manufacture a new type of war Spirit Artifact! A..."

He took a deep breath. "A war Spirit Artifact that can defeat the Demonic Beasts King head-on!"

"Defeat the Demonic Beasts King head-on!?"

The two True Lord the Primordial Realm exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes.

Although the Xuan Bird fighter jet is powerful, it is still limited to the realm of the Primordial Spirit True Lord.

Even with the complete version of the Xuan Nu fighter jet, neither of them dared to imagine that it could confront the Demonic Beasts King head-on.

But right now...

It's been said Gu Jinlai that he could create a war Spirit Artifact capable of directly defeating the Demonic Beasts King!?

Defeat them head-on!

Not a direct confrontation!

The weapon-refining foundation of Lingxiao City is actually this powerful!?

"Good!"

Gu Jinlai nodded.

He considered the next opening time of the Autumn Mountain Demon Realm Rift and said heavily, "It will probably take me a year and a half to forge that war Spirit Artifact! After a year and a half, when the war Spirit Artifact is born, the first thing I will do is to wipe out all the Demonic Beasts in Muzhou and completely restore Muzhou!"

Previously, although he could unleash a strike that was essentially on par with a true immortal on land by relying on the property of inheritance and transformation, the Eternal Furnace would become unbalanced after each strike, requiring two and a half months to stabilize.

During these two and a half months, he not only couldn't cultivate smoothly, but his combat strength was also affected.

In other words, this is a forbidden technique with extremely high hidden dangers.

But if we could build the Shadow Mech...

In his battle against the Demonic Beasts King, he will no longer need to rely on that single, decisive strike.

"In a year and a half, the Demonic Beasts of Muzhou were wiped out..."

Cheng Lixue and Jing Yunshan listened to it as if it were a dream, as if it were a book written in the heavens.

After a long while, Cheng Lixue hurriedly said, "Lord Gu, there is no need to rush the restoration of Muzhou. Demonic Beasts are cunning and treacherous, and we don't know how much power they are hiding. It's not too late to invade Muzhou after Lingxiao City has enough strength. We can afford to wait ten years."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Gu Jinlai.

"Alright, I'll go back now and bring the Immortal Refined Gold."

Cheng Lixue said.

"I will go with you. I also need to talk to Sect Master Fang Linghai and True Lord Leng Ningshuang, Liu Jingtao, and Wuyou about going to Huangzhou as soon as possible."

"Huangzhou?"

"Um!"

Gu Jinlai nodded. "Another Demonic Beasts king has appeared in Huangzhou. It is a flying Demonic Beasts king that poses a great threat to the Primordial Spirit True Lord. This Demonic Beasts king has summoned the Tianhe Demonic Beasts and rushed straight to Huangtian City. It is obviously unwilling to accept the defeat of Yuntian City more than two months ago and is launching a revenge. I think the Cold Moon Sect will receive the news soon."

"Lord Gu is going to help? But your army and demon guards are all in Lanzhou..."

"I have already gathered thousands of demon guards from Lingxiao City and Xingguang City stationed in Star Province. If it really doesn't work, I will go there alone first."

This Gu Jinlai.

"Going alone? That would be far too dangerous."

As Cheng Lixue spoke, she said somewhat cryptically, "Lord Gu Tianjun, there must be some hidden story behind the sudden gathering of the Heavenly River Demonic Beasts and their rush out of the Heavenly River, right?"

Gu Jinlai, knows what he is referring to.

The inside story...

It's simply that Yellow Heaven Sect is colluding with Demonic Beasts.

"I understand what you mean, but..."

Gu Jinlai said in a heavy tone, "As I just said, Huangzhou not only has Yellow Heaven Sect, but also 30 million human people. If we didn't have the ability, that would be fine, but now that I have the ability, I absolutely cannot sit idly by and watch the 30 million people of Huangzhou become food supplies in the mouths of Demonic Beasts."

"Ability..."

Cheng Lixue and Jing Yunshan exchanged a glance.

His expression was somber, tinged with a hint of melancholy.

"The people of Huangzhou are neighbors with Star Province, and Star Province has a leader like Gu Tianjun. How fortunate they are."

Clearly, they had their eyes on their Muzhou.

If Muzhou had matured Gu Jinlai grown by the time of its calamity, perhaps...

Then we wouldn't have ended up with the entire territory falling to the enemy.

Gu Jinlai, Cheng Lixue, and Jing Yunshan quickly arrived at the newly recaptured Lengfeng Fortress.

Upon arriving at Lengfeng Fortress, he immediately found Fang Linghai, Leng Ningshuang, and others, explaining his intention to go to Huangzhou to provide assistance.

As Gu Jinlai, the Cold Moon Sect had already received news of the great upheaval in Huangzhou.

The sect leader and several elders were quite surprised by his decision.

To this day, it is no secret that Yellow Heaven Sect and the Tianhe Demonic Beasts have colluded.

However, their collusion was easily broken by the distrust Gu Jinlai the two sides, which ultimately led to the Yellow Heaven Sect reaping what he sowed.

But now...

Yellow Heaven Sect is once again attacked by Demonic Beasts, yet he is still willing to help from Gu Jinlai!?

Even with the main force trapped in Lanzhou, and with every reason to refuse!?

Liu Jingtao was worried that Yellow Heaven Sect's request for help might be a conspiracy and wanted to stop him immediately.

But when they heard the reasons Gu Jinlai, all the Primordial Spirit True Lord standing atop the Southern Peak fell silent.

After a long while, Fang Linghai solemnly cupped his hands in a salute. "The ancient Heavenly Emperor is benevolent and righteous, I am no match for him."

Leng Ning Shuang immediately promised, "Please rest assured, Lord Gu Tianjun, we know that the Demon God's personal guards need to refine the Essence Blood of Demonic Beasts to strengthen themselves. All of these Demonic Beasts corpses will belong to Lingxiao City."

Liu Jingtao was also at a loss for words regarding the reason given by Gu Jinlai.

After a long while, he said, "As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood. Whatever the old master wants to do, please be careful in your actions. You represent more than just yourself now, so safety is the most important thing."

"I see."

Gu Jinlai nodded. "I'll leave the cleanup to you all."

After saying that, he seemed to remember something and smiled at Fang Linghai, saying, "I intend to launch a counterattack on Muzhou in a few years. In order to formulate a detailed counterattack plan, I want to bring True Lord Jing Yunshan and Cheng Lixue, as well as those who have retreated from Muzhou, to Lingxiao City so that I can get first-hand information about Muzhou from them. Sect Master Fang, you won't refuse to let them go, will you?"

Fang Linghai, Leng Ningshuang, and the others were taken aback, but quickly realized the implication behind the words from Gu Jinlai.

In an instant, everyone's attention fell on Cheng Lixue and Jing Yunshan.

The two also stated frankly. "We will dedicate the rest of our lives to the mission of eliminating the Demonic Beasts of Muzhou and restoring Muzhou. Gu Tianjun has made a promise to us, and we believe in his promise."

Fang Linghai felt somewhat unwilling upon hearing this, but after glancing at the two Primordial Spirit True Lord representing the Yellow Springs Sect and the Purgatory Sect, he still sighed and said, "If it weren't for everyone's help in today's battle, the Cold Moon Sect might not have been able to withstand this Demonic Beasts invasion. Therefore, if our Cold Moon Sect were to say that we could conquer Muzhou in the future, it would just be empty talk."

After saying that, he looked at the two True Lords and said with a smile, "Furthermore, you two are guest elders of our Cold Moon Sect, and you are free to come and go. Now that you are heading to Lingxiao City, we will naturally not stop you."

"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Master Fang."

Cheng Lixue said.

"We should be the ones thanking you. If it weren't for the help of the two of you and your disciples, our Cold Moon Sect might not have been able to withstand the Demonic Beasts' attacks for so long."

Leng Ning Shuang responded with a smile.

Since Cheng Lixue and Jing Yunshan have decided to leave, and their target for refuge is Lingxiao City, which they dare not provoke at the moment, it would be better for everyone to maintain a dignified separation and part ways amicably.

Time was of the essence, and no one had ever lingered at Lengfeng Fortress Gu Jinlai.

After exchanging words with everyone, they arrived at Cheng Lixue and Jing Yunshan's courtyard and received fifty-one portions of Immortal Refined Gold from them.

After obtaining the Immortal Refined Gold, Gu Jinlai urged Gu Chifeng to lead the Demon God's personal guards back to Lingxiao City as soon as possible.

He himself rode the mechanical Tyrannosaurus Rex ahead, leading the two Grand Masters Zhang Yukun and Guan Xingyun, along with a team of a hundred Demon God guards, heading towards Lingxiao City at full speed.

Given the strength that Lingxiao City had revealed, Cold Moon Sect did not have the courage to forcibly detain the Demon God's personal guards.

Gu Jinlai had come from Lengfeng Fortress, returned to Lingxiao City at top speed.

Firstly, it's convenient to go to Huangtian City.

Secondly...

He has important matters to explain.

"All of them are here!?"

"It's really all here!?"

In the military workshop, Zhang Lihuo and Si Tianyan immediately gathered around, looking at Gu Jinlai with delight.

"The immortal refined gold for forging the first phase of the Cheng Ying mech is complete."

Gu Jinlai nodded heavily and led his group, along with several Grand Masters including Zhang Yukun who had returned with him, directly to a heavily guarded warehouse.

Here, the immortal refined gold obtained from Dragon Sparrow Manor, as well as the gold collected during this period, are all preserved.

He took out a design drawing and unfolded it, saying, "We already have sixteen models of the Xuan Bird fighter jet, but we don't have enough engines. Having more fighter jet models is meaningless. The Sharp Sword and Heavy Cannon... can also be handed over to Zhou Mingshi and the others. Your task next is to do your best to complete the forging of the Cheng Ying mecha's main body. I will personally supplement the details."

"The Cheng Ying mech! We've seen it a lot lately, and I've even dreamed more than once about piloting this war Spirit Artifact across the battlefield."

"Yes, I can't wait to see if this mecha can really suppress the Demonic Beasts King and even fight against the Saint's Golden Body, just as the Supreme Elder said."

"I have a feeling that starting with the Cheng Ying mecha, this will be the beginning of a great era."

The tone of Zhang Lihuo, Si Tianyan, and others was filled with anticipation, excitement, and emotion.

From Gu Jinlai, everyone has wanted to forge the Cheng Ying mecha as soon as possible, so that Lingxiao City could have a trump card that could truly compete with the top forces of Qiantian, or even the forces of divine weapons. And what about these Grand Celestial Masters?

After all...

If the data on the Cheng Ying mech is accurate and reliable, the Celestial Master, who has been dormant for thousands of years, will surely return to the world stage.

"Leave the initial work to us."

Zhang Lihu stepped forward and solemnly agreed.

"Good."

Gu Jinlai nodded emphatically and handed the warehouse key to Zhang Lihuo.
