A Flying Sword Bestowed, the Xingfeng Sect Destroyed!
Ningguo, in the mountains behind the royal palace.
Xue Yangzi was sitting cross-legged on a rock, with a murky mass of Spiritual Qi in front of him.
He was just one step away from breaking through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.
Looking at the ball of Spiritual Qi in front of him, Xue Yangzi did not hesitate for long before he began to circulate his Cultivation Method.
Once he absorbs all of this Spiritual Qi, he will surely advance to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.
As he circulated his Cultivation Method, the turbid Spiritual Qi in front of Xue Yangzi was slowly absorbed into his body.
The next moment, a surge of spiritual Spiritual Qi filled his Spirit Aperture.
As soon as the Spiritual Qi entered the Spirit Aperture, the entire Spirit Aperture was stained black.
It turned black because this Spiritual Qi contained a great deal of resentment.
This single mass of blood-eating Spiritual Qi was formed from the slaughter of at least two hundred thousand living beings.
Faced with this immense resentment, Xue Yangzi dared not be careless and began to calm his mind.
Once he is corrupted by this resentment, he may Qi Deviation at best, or even die on the spot at worst.
This is also why there are very few cultivators in the various countries of Yingzhou.
Even if one possesses the aptitude for cultivation, there is a chance of perishing due to resentment every time one absorbs blood and Spiritual Qi to cultivate.
Pain was evident on Xueyangzi's face, a sign that he was being consumed by resentment.
He said in a deep voice:
"On the day I become an immortal, I will resurrect you all. You paved the way for my path to immortality, so what is there to resent?"
After saying that, Xue Yangzi began to forcibly refine the blood-eating Spiritual Qi.
As Xue Yangzi refined the essence, the black color of the Spirit Aperture within his body began to fade slowly.
A faint light reappeared within the Spirit Aperture.
Half an hour later, the blackness in his Spirit Aperture had completely faded, leaving only some turbid resentment.
At that moment, his aura suddenly surged.
"Haha, after a full ten years, I've finally broken through!"
Xueyangzi's aged face was filled with excitement.
He is 110 years old.
The lifespan of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage is at most one hundred and fifty years.
He has now reached the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, and is only one step away from Foundation Establishment.
Once he successfully breaks through to the Foundation Establishment, his lifespan will increase to three hundred years.
Currently, among the surrounding countries, his cultivation level is considered the highest.
The rest of the people were mostly still at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining.
At this moment, Xue Yangzi seemed to sense something, and he then rode the wind to the foot of the back mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, Lei Potian was kneeling here.
Seeing Lei Potian kneeling, Xue Yangzi asked in confusion, "Potian, what do you want?"
Upon seeing Xue Yangzi appear, Lei Potian immediately understood that his ancestor had successfully broken through. He hurriedly and respectfully said:
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Ancestor! I have something to report to you."
Lei Potian then recounted the events surrounding Xingfeng Sect.
He returned to Ningguo long ago.
However, Xue Yangzi was in seclusion during this time, so he couldn't disturb him.
But Guo Ming will definitely seek revenge.
So during this period, he knelt here and waited almost every day.
After listening to Lei Potian's words, Xue Yangzi said nonchalantly:
"It's just a martial arts force in the Yue Kingdom. Even if they possess special hidden weapons, they're still nothing more than ants."
Xueyangzi seemed unconvinced.
To him, everyone except cultivators was an ant.
Why would he care about the affairs of ants?
"Ancestor, are we just going to let this matter go like this?" Lei Potian said unwillingly.
He really wanted to lead his troops to wipe out the Xingfeng Sect.
Xueyangzi said:
"My deal with that old man Yue Qianshan is complete. You can no longer bring troops into the Yue Kingdom territory."
Upon hearing this, Lei Potian's face was filled with disappointment.
At this moment, Xueyangzi suddenly said:
"But that special hidden weapon you mentioned is indeed quite interesting. It just so happens that Yue Qianshan isn't in the Yue Kingdom, so why don't you take my Law Artifact and go there?"
After he finished speaking, a flying sword hovered in front of Lei Potian.
Looking at the flying sword in front of him, Lei Potian was filled with shock:
"Ancestor, this..."
Lei Potian never expected that his ancestor would entrust him with such a celestial treasure.
He knew all too well how terrifying those flying swords were.
Xue Yangzi once used this flying sword to kill a Transformation Realm from a distance of a thousand meters, and without breaking a sweat.
"Although you are not a cultivator and do not possess Spiritual Qi, I have nurtured this Law Artifact for many years, and it already contains a certain amount of Spiritual Qi. You only need to inject your blood to activate it briefly," Xue Yangzi said calmly.
He certainly wouldn't personally travel to the Yue Kingdom just to wipe out a small force.
Since he has only just broken through, what he needs to do now is to consolidate his realm.
Send Lei Potian there with his Law Artifact; that would be enough to destroy the Xingfeng Sect.
"Thank you, Ancestor!" Lei Potian kowtowed to Xue Yangzi.
With this treasure, he alone is enough to destroy the Xingfeng Sect.
He could slaughter any martial arts force within the Yue Kingdom, let alone Xingfeng Sect.
The power of the immortal's treasure is no joke.
"Okay, go ahead."
Xue Yangzi waved his hand; he wasn't worried about losing his flying sword.
His spiritual consciousness resides there; unless one's cultivation level is far superior to his, it's impossible to take it away.
Lei Potian immediately accepted the flying sword with both hands and left.
In the modern world, Chen Feng appeared at Xingfeng Mining.
He went to the factory's production workshop, intending to refine the "Phantom Hidden Gold" that had a concealment effect.
Last time, we tested this thing and found it could block radar.
However, to know the specific properties of this product, we still need to have the equipment in the production workshop refine it.
Both the Blazing Sun Iron and this "Phantom Hidden Gold" contain a large number of impurities.
The forging techniques used in the Painting Scroll World are incapable of removing impurities.
But modern devices can.
This is why the strength of the Blazing Sun Iron is far greater than that of the weapons forged from Blazing Sun Stone in the Painting Scroll World.
Chen Feng then found Old Zhang, the manager of the production workshop, and asked him to take the stones to refine them.
A moment later, Old Zhang returned with a container.
"Boss, it's all refined."
The container in Old Zhang's hand is called a "crucible," which is a high-temperature refractory container.
Chen Feng took the crucible and glanced at it. Inside, he saw a pool of pitch-black liquid.
"How did it turn into a liquid?"
Chen Feng originally thought that the refining process would turn the metal into a blocky form like iron; he hadn't expected it to turn into a liquid.
Old Zhang explained:
"Boss, after removing the impurities from that stone, this is the liquid inside. What is it?"
Old Zhang didn't recognize what the stone Chen Feng had given him was.
Chen Feng dipped his finger in the mixture and examined it closely.
This thing actually started to change color under sunlight.
The original black color gradually turned into a color similar to his fingers.
Upon seeing this, Old Zhang exclaimed in surprise, "This is color-changing metal!"
"Color-changing metal?" Chen Feng looked at Old Zhang.
Old Zhang quickly said:
"Boss, some special metals have the ability to change color. For example, I know of 'gallium-based alloys,' which are silvery-white at room temperature, but become translucent when the temperature is too high, and turn purple at even higher temperatures."
Old Zhang specializes in refining metal ores, so naturally he knows a bit about metals.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "Thank you."
This thing seems to be much more valuable than he thought.
At this moment, Chen Feng already had a plan in mind.
He plans to turn this stone into metallic paint.
It can achieve a camouflage effect simply by being applied to tanks and fighter jets.
"Looks like the price we were thinking of was too low. Let's increase it by several hundred times."
I think the government will definitely be willing to spend money on this.
It can evade radar and even change color; how could anyone not be tempted?
He plans to sell it by the gram, not by the kilogram.
Chen Feng then left the workshop and went to Lin Wei's research room.
At this moment, Lin Wei was modifying the Spiritual Qi collector.
The Spiritual Qi collector that Lin Wei modified this time is much larger than before, with a height of several meters.
This Spiritual Qi collector is square in shape, covered with a dense network of pipes and sophisticated instruments.
According to Lin Wei, she plans to build a high-powered Spiritual Qi collector.
This high-powered Spiritual Qi collector can expand the Spiritual Qi absorption range by tens of kilometers.
Chen Feng, of course, unconditionally supported this.
The more Spiritual Qi he absorbs, the more Spiritual Qi liquid he can obtain.
"What brings you here?"
Lin Wei, who was modifying the Spiritual Qi collector with tools, looked at Chen Feng and asked a question.
The hair on her forehead was already soaked with sweat.
But Lin Wei showed no signs of fatigue.
This was also because Chen Feng had given her several kinds of nourishing pills during this period.
My physical condition is much better now than before.
Even if I work for more than ten hours straight, I don't feel tired.
"How much longer will this take to complete?" Chen Feng asked, looking at the nearly three-meter-tall Spiritual Qi collector in front of him.
Lin Wei put down the tools in her hand and sighed, saying:
"It will probably take a long time, because some of these chips require high-end lithography machines, and foreign lithography machine manufacturers have a long waiting list for chip manufacturing. It might be next month before it's our turn."
"Also, the funds you gave me are running out soon."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng asked in surprise, "You've already spent all of the ten billion?"
Seeing Chen Feng's expression, Lin Wei immediately put her hands on her hips and said with dissatisfaction:
"My dear Mr. Chen, all you know is that you gave me a billion, but why don't you remember how many things I developed and how much I gave you in return?"
"Besides, modifying this high-powered Spiritual Qi collector is very expensive, you know."
Lin Wei looked unhappy; she wondered if Chen Feng thought she had embezzled the money.
She used all the money Chen Feng gave her for research.
I didn't spend a single penny on myself.
Chen Feng said with a smile:
I was just asking, I didn't mean anything by it.
He knew Lin Wei wouldn't lie to him, and that the money was spent wisely, but she still spent it too quickly.
Whether in the modern world or the Painting Scroll World, he is now facing a shortage of money.
"It's good that you know. If you're short on funds, I can slow down the research a bit. There's no rush."
Lin Wei also felt that the money had been spent a bit too much.
Chen Feng supported her research almost without regard to cost.
But research projects are not something that Chen Feng, the owner of a small business, can afford to support.
Regardless of the type of scientific research project, they are all backed by national financial support.
Most privately owned companies engaged in scientific research are large multinational corporations.
Chen Feng waved his hand:
"There's no need to slow down. I'll figure out a way to get you a few lithography machines later."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wei was immediately taken aback:
"How do you plan to get a few lithography machines?"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "You'll see in a while."
What to do? He went to the company that manufactures lithography machines, of course.
He doesn't have the money to buy such a high-end lithography machine right now.
Furthermore, the other party would never sell it to Dragon Country.
So he had no choice but to borrow a few.
Chen Feng planned to visit the company that manufactures lithography machines after he went to the Golden Triangle.
After chatting with Lin Wei for a while, Chen Feng left.
He then went to Xingfeng Pharmaceuticals.
He had already had Liu Qian purchase and deliver a batch of Yangyuan Pills last time.
It should be manufactured by now; Chen Feng plans to go and take a look.
Upon arriving at Xingfeng Pharmaceuticals, he could hear the sounds of machines running in the pharmaceutical factory.
Wound Healing No. 1 has been gradually being sold nationwide for some time now.
This has resulted in a large number of orders for the factory.
The workers are also working overtime to increase production.
