On April 1, 2024, which was April Fool's Day, black holes appeared and meteors descended, plunging humanity into apocalyptic disasters.
The reborn Ling Tian relied on his infinite space t...
"So severe?"
Ling Tian was also shocked. He had been in seclusion these days tinkering with the weapon and didn't know much about what the sect was facing. Now that he knew about it, he couldn't help but worry.
Although there is a secret passage that can take him some distance away from the sect, he doesn't think that the other party will not catch up with him. It is still unknown whether he can escape.
"Don't think too much. We are here to get you to a safe place. Hey, what are these two things in your hands?"
Song Zicheng noticed the strange thing in Ling Tian's hand and asked curiously.
"Oh, Master, this is called a Gatling gun. Let me show you how to do it."
"Gatling???"
As he spoke, Ling Tian held the ring on the gun barrel with one hand and the handle on the side with the other. With the input of spiritual power, Ling Tian lightly pressed a small mechanism on the handle, and the tiny muzzle immediately spurted out tongues of fire at high speed, one after another, which was very scary.
The strange object in the eyes of Song Zichen and the other two shocked them greatly. How could this weapon called Gatling be able to perform such a magical and continuous attack?
For a moment, hope appeared in the eyes of the three people, and they asked Ling Tian eagerly.
"Ling Tian, where did you get this weapon?"
"Replying to Master, this is a weapon from our Blue Mercury. I accidentally remembered it a few days ago and tried to copy it. I think it will be of great use to the sect. However, its power can only be exerted to the strength of the tenth level of Qi Refining. It will not be able to withstand higher spiritual power output."
"Isn't it because of the material that it can't withstand the load?"
Song Zichen hit the key point right away, which made Ling Ren admire him.
"Master, it is indeed related to the material, but refining this weapon requires a lot of parts, and each part requires different materials. If you want to refine a more powerful one, you need to constantly try various materials, but I am a little stretched on my own."
"How about this, I'll arrange for some people to come and help you try it out. You can take my token and use the items in the sect's treasure house as you please."
After Song Zihe gave the token to Ling Tian, he continued to discuss with Song Zijian and the others how to escort Ling Tian away better and more safely. Obviously, they did not think that relying on weapons with strange shapes could play a big role. Unless they reached the level of acquired spiritual treasures, they would not be able to reverse the situation.
Ling Tian also knew what they were thinking, but he did not give up, so he took the token to the sect's forging hall.
The hall is not big, with a total of three rooms, all of which are used to forge weapons and magic tools. There is underground fire inside, so the temperature is extremely high.
"Thank you, Hall Master!"
"Junior Brother Ling? How come you have time to come to a dirty place like mine?"
Xie Bin was very surprised by Ling Tian's arrival.
"It's like this. I have a weapon here and I need Brother Xie's help to see if I can upgrade its rank."
"Weapons? Or later? This is an emergency, weapons are in short supply, we..."
"Xie Senior Brother, take a look first."
Ling Tian immediately interrupted Xie Bin and handed him a Gatling gun.
Xie Bin was a little displeased, thinking, "Isn't it just first place in alchemy? What's so good about it?" However, he was soon attracted by the strange shape of the device. He kept exploring it and became more and more interested. After a while, he actually figured out how to use it.
"Da da da~"
A sudden tremor startled him. He stared at the wall in front of him, which was blasted into a large black piece. His eyes widened. He dropped his weapon and walked over to investigate. The dense shallow marks made him a little unbelievable, and then he became excited.
"Junior brother, who forged this? It's so exquisitely constructed and incredibly powerful. If the forging material were changed, the power would definitely be raised several notches."
"Thank you, Senior Brother. This is why I came to you. I need your help to see how to increase the power of this weapon. Perhaps it will bring hope of survival to the sect."
"Alive? Maybe."
Xie Bin shook his head. He was prepared to die in this disaster. The weapon Ling Tian gave him just gave him more hope as he devoted himself to studying it. Even if it was upgraded to a higher level, it would not have much impact on the final result.
"Junior brother, wait a moment."
In a moment, Xie Bin had called over the twelve disciples of the Forging Hall. Ling Tian didn't waste any words and immediately passed the prepared drawings into their minds. Of course, Ling Tian also had a trick up his sleeve, and he would develop the most critical part himself.
If there is strength in numbers, with the addition of the Forging Hall, in just one day, the Gatling gun made of the same material was tempered individually and integrated with metals, and its power was increased to the thirteenth level of Qi Refining. This can be considered a breakthrough.
"Junior brother, this power is also a great threat to those in the early stages of foundation building. If we produce a batch according to this process, the chances of low-level disciples surviving will be much greater."
"However, although this weapon is powerful, it consumes spiritual energy quickly and in large quantities. This is a huge flaw. Overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages."
"Yes, but we don't need too many. According to the results of the previous test, the spiritual power of a disciple who has reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining can only last for more than ten breaths. If a group of twenty people take turns using it, it can ensure that the weapon will continue to operate. However, it requires sufficient spiritual stones. In addition, adding two or three Foundation Establishment stage disciples to each group for protection may be more effective."
Xie Bin strongly agreed with Ling Tian's arrangement. This kind of weapon requires a team to unleash its true power.
Three disciples were assigned to refine it, while the rest continued to engage in research.
Another two days passed, and the atmosphere in the sect was extremely depressing. Many disciples had already developed the urge to rush out and fight for their lives.
Outside the sect, hundreds of thousands of cultivators surrounded the Dan League, and the more than ten people leading them were the sect's supreme elders who were about to be strangled, and their strength was terrifying.
"Song Zijian, I'm afraid this formation won't hold out for much longer. The outcome will be the same anyway. Instead of fighting to the bitter end, it's better to open it and die quickly. Otherwise..."
Luo Shouyi raised the corner of his mouth. An old woman with a dragon-headed cane appeared next to him. She was indeed surrounded by a layer of black smoke, which looked very disgusting.
"The old woman from Yinshan!"
"Hehe, I didn't expect that someone still remembered me, hehe!"
Inside the sect, Song Zihe remembered this terrifying existence, whose moods were unpredictable and who practiced the cruel and inhumane blood-sucking and soul-devouring technique that was not tolerated by the world of immortal cultivation. He was strangled by all the major sects and organizations a thousand years ago, and his lifespan should have ended long ago.
"Impossible, how can you still be alive?"
"Yes, I should have died long ago. It's all thanks to your Master that I've been able to survive until now. Today I'm here to repay your kindness, hahahaha!"
