Third-order materials and fourth-order materials are worlds apart.
Similarly, the difference between fourth-order and fifth-order materials is even more pronounced.
It's not just about power and effectiveness.
Even the difficulty of refining it will increase significantly.
The fourth-tier materials in the Nether Toad's Storage Bag were all melted and condensed with the Nether Toad's help.
Subsequently, under the construction of Lu Li's Golden Core Divine Sense, the Great Xia further utilized its existing Spirit Machinery industrial technology.
A fourth-order humanoid spirit puppet was crafted.
Yes, those two enormous machines, each five hundred meters tall, hidden in the shadows of the cliff face in the underground palace of Lu Li, were not mechs.
It's a true fourth-order puppet!
Moreover, it is a modified and upgraded version of the Spirit Gang Giant Puppet.
As for why it was called that, Lu Li was initially a little confused.
Until he witnessed the Spirit Gang Giant Puppet in actual combat...
" Nether Toad, this time you revealed your true form in the Heavenly Wolf Blessed Land. Do not provoke us; merely feign madness and seek healing elixirs."
"Remember! Make a big fuss! Make sure to attract the attention of all the powerful demons in these Blessed Land."
Inside the underground palace, Lu Li issued his orders.
Military buildup has begun.
The Beyond Heaven Dao Academy is in the military preparations.
However, the military measures were not so mild.
Nether Toad explained it very clearly: the Demon Manor and Jingxi Prefecture had a major conflict on the border.
The Prefecture-Breaking War is imminent, and both governments are about to fall into chaos.
His precious golden development time has been shortened; he must accelerate it.
Yes, the Beyond Heaven Dao Academy can continue to erode the power of the surrounding Blessed Land from the lower levels.
As for acquiring high-grade spiritual materials, Lu Li plans to steal them outright!
The plan was simple: the Nether Toad would appear in Pang's Blessed Land to attract attention while proving its innocence.
Then, he released the two Spirit Gang Giant Puppet at the target Blessed Land.
Recalling the experimental performance of the two Spirit Gang Giant Puppet, Lu Li's confidence increased greatly.
In such a chaotic time, as long as he can secure a few votes, he can accelerate the acquisition of high-level spiritual materials.
Once the Prefecture-Breaking War begins, your safety will definitely increase significantly!
"I had planned to have several decades to develop, allowing me to accumulate resources to exchange for or purchase numerous high-level spiritual materials."
"Time is of the essence, so I can only try buying it for free!"
Lu Li simultaneously sent a message back to Blue Star regarding his accelerated development plan.
After rigorous strategic analysis and probabilistic planning.
Although the Great Xia side had some concerns, they knew that if they didn't take advantage of the chaos to accelerate their development.
Once the Prefecture-Breaking War begins, Lu Li's chances of survival will become extremely low.
Li Yuanchao did not say much about this, but instead mobilized the entire nation to urgently send out another batch of Spirit Machinery weapons.
When it comes to buying things for free, you absolutely must be careful and discreet.
Xu Xiong is busy hyping up and inflating the prices of medicinal herbs.
Yuanhao was busy revising his ideological teaching materials.
The disciples of the Dao Academy were busy dealing with the increasing number of assessment tasks.
Lu Li summoned the Changming Changye.
Inside the underground palace, under the Changming Changye, Nether Toad, Lu Li, and two others sat together.
Lu Li the door and got straight to the point.
" Changming Changye be lit, and may I, your Uncle You, and your master, take a look."
Have you noticed anything unusual lately?
Lu Li looked at his two beloved disciples, ever since he stepped into the Golden Core.
The ability to Changming Changye somewhat lacking.
You have to be extremely focused to spot even the slightest clue.
It's far worse than before, but there's nothing we can do about it.
True Lord lives for five hundred years, roams freely in heaven and earth, and is thus largely unaffected by karmic consequences.
Changming and Changye are merely Foundation Establishment cultivators with a lifespan of just over two hundred years. How could they possibly discern fortune and misfortune at this level?
The two knew they couldn't be of much help, and for the past two years they had been filled with anxiety and guilt.
Therefore, he worked hard for the Dao Academy, thus indirectly helping his master.
"Master, please wait a moment. My junior brother and I will take a look at... Uncle You."
Lu Changming respectfully clasped his hands in a fist salute. He and Changye were aware of the existence of the Nether Toad.
After so many years of getting to know each other, the two of them didn't have any special feelings for each other.
He focused intently on the top of the Nether Toad's head.
Upon seeing this, Nether Toad sat up straight and became serious.
It had heard of the abilities of its master's two beloved disciples.
Divination has been shrouded in mystery since ancient times.
Even it can't escape it; all that's left is to wait for the answer.
only...
"Master... Uncle-Master You's cultivation is too high, I... I can't see any clues..."
Changming's tone was tinged with guilt.
The Changye was the same; the two lowered their heads.
Even the Golden Core is difficult to discern clearly, let alone the Nascent Soul.
Lu Li had already anticipated this; he was just trying his luck.
"It's alright, don't be discouraged. In that case, let's see what your teacher can do."
"Good!"
Upon hearing Lu Li's words, the two of them became serious.
Having cultivated with Lu Li for so many years, Changming and Changye had long regarded Lu Li as their closest person.
Their greatest dream since they began cultivating was to one day stand in front of Lu Li and save him from danger.
Now that they are useful to their master, he will not spare any effort.
They gathered their senses and looked up at Lu Li's head.
One gritted his teeth, the other's temple veins bulged.
The Spiritual Power around the two surged wildly, converging in their eyes.
A faint golden light flickered deep within his pupils, as if it were igniting.
His cheeks quickly lost blood, his breathing became heavy, and his body trembled.
Lu Changye managed to say with difficulty, "Master... Master, there may be a source of good fortune in the due east."
"Master! There is no disaster!"
Lu Changming managed to finish his sentence.
A newly acquired flying sword at his waist, which he hadn't yet refined, suddenly flashed and, as if provoked by something, pierced straight towards his Dantian.
"Whoosh!"
"Bang!"
Lu Li reacted swiftly, grabbing the flying sword and refining it in an instant.
He turned back to look at Lu Changye, raised his hand to grasp his meridians, and channeled his Spiritual Power into him.
Dispel the abnormal energy within its body.
It's clear that as Lu Li's cultivation level increases, the side effects of his two beloved disciples' observations will become increasingly apparent.
The speed of that flying sword almost destroyed Changming's dantian.
As for the unusual aura emanating from Changye, if it is not cleared away in time, Lu Changye will likely remain confused and disoriented for the next few days.
The existing fortuitous opportunity for advancement will likely all slip away.
"Before Changming Changye's cultivation improves, they should avoid causing trouble for their two precious disciples."
"It would be bad if it caused any future problems."
With a slight thought, Lu Li stood up.
The divination results are in: good fortune prevails, no misfortune.
So what else could he possibly worry about?
He's definitely going to take this freebie!
" Nether Toad, leave today!"
"Two days from now, at this very moment, you and the Heavenly Wolf Blessed Land will appear to attract attention and buy me more time."
"Remember, don't use your fists. I'll finish this quickly."
Lu Li gave a few words of advice in a deep voice, then turned to his two disciples.
" Changming, Changye, I'm going out for a while. You must supervise the various matters at the Dao Academy effectively."
"During this period, we must not afford to make any mistakes!"
"I will obey your orders, Master!"
Changming Changye bowed respectfully, while Lu Li and Nether Toad simultaneously disappeared from the underground palace...
