But Ye Feng shook his head and said, "Don't make a move for now. Let's see if the infantry can handle it. If they can, that's great. If they can't, then it's not too late for you to make your move."
Gongbu Qiuye nodded without saying much; he knew why Yefeng had made such an arrangement.
Ye Feng was actually training his troops, training the soldiers of the new infantry corps.
Moreover, this can be considered a test.
Boom boom boom!
The even larger Crimson-Tailed Beast charged towards them at high speed, its gaping maw flashing with a bewitching red light.
The next moment, a large basin of fiery breath spewed out from the Red-tailed Beast's mouth.
Upon seeing this, Chen He immediately ordered his men to take cover. As a result, all the soldiers of the infantry corps split up from the middle and retreated to both sides, barely managing to evade the attack of the eighth-rank red-tailed beast.
Immediately afterwards, the infantry corps launched a powerful counterattack!
One after another, spirit stone grenades were thrown out, flying in parabolic arcs towards the eighth-grade Crimson-Tailed Beast.
The eighth-grade Crimson-Tailed Beast immediately let out a roar, and a shockwave spread out from its mouth, directly changing the trajectory of those spirit stone grenades!
So nearly two hundred spirit stone grenades didn't land on the eighth-grade red-tailed beast, but instead landed around its body.
Boom! Boom! Boom! The spirit stone grenades exploded one after another, but they did not cause any damage to the eighth-grade red-tailed beast.
"That's the flaw of the Spirit Stone Grenade," Night Wind remarked.
Gongbu Qiuye nodded in agreement.
The power of the spirit stone grenade explosion was extremely strong. The protective true qi of a True Yuan Realm martial artist could not withstand it at all. As expected, the protective true qi of a Divine Travel Realm martial artist was also shattered when hit by the spirit stone grenade explosions.
However, the distance between when the spirit stone grenade leaves the hand and when it explodes is a fatal weakness.
Since spirit stone grenades are thrown by infantry soldiers and are not fast, the trajectory of the spirit stone grenades through the air can be easily captured by martial artists and demonic beasts. In this way, they can use various means to interfere with the flight trajectory of the spirit stone grenades.
In this way, the spirit stone grenade cannot accurately hit the target, so no matter how powerful the spirit stone grenade is, it is useless.
"If we could design a launching mechanism that works with spirit stone grenades, that would be great. This mechanism would increase the speed at which spirit stone grenades are launched, thereby improving the hit rate and reducing the possibility of the enemy interfering with the trajectory of the spirit stone grenades. What do you think of that?" Gongbu Qiuye asked after thinking for a moment.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "I've already started researching this, but there are no results yet."
The eighth-rank Crimson-tailed Beast was majestic and awe-inspiring, just like a war god on the battlefield.
Although the spirit stone grenades could not directly hit it, they forced it to keep its distance. Even so, this eighth-grade red-tailed beast had already put immense pressure on countless soldiers of the infantry legion.
After all, this Rank 8 Crimson-Tailed Beast is extremely powerful in both size and strength, far surpassing ordinary Crimson-Tailed Beasts.
But Ye Feng still didn't make a move.
Unexpectedly, at that moment, a pretty figure appeared on the battlefield.
It was Luo Qing!
Luo Qing's appearance startled Luo Lin, and Xu Ping'an, Chen He, Jiang Wei, and others also changed their expressions drastically.
"Miss Luo Qing, what brings you here?"
"This is not a place for you, go back now!"
Chen He and Jiang Wei immediately tried to stop her, but Luo Qing easily slipped past them and kept getting closer to the front line.
"Don't stop me, I want to test out my new weapon!" Luo Qing shouted.
Upon hearing the words "new weapon," both Chen He and Jiang Wei looked puzzled.
They then looked at Ye Feng together, and Ye Feng nodded to them after thinking for a moment.
Since Luo Qing is already here, let her stay here. Anyway, with Ye Feng around, Luo Qing won't encounter any danger.
And Ye Feng was actually quite curious about that new weapon she mentioned.
Rowling has surprised Ye Feng more than once, and this time Ye Feng wants to see what surprises she can bring him.
Luo Qing ran to a high hill and took out a bunch of things from her storage ring and started assembling them quickly.
Before long, she had assembled a thing that was half a person tall and had a long cannon barrel.
"Look, Ancestor! I've got you something big!"
Luo Qing shouted excitedly, and when she saw Ye Feng looking in her direction, she immediately activated the strange and unusual spiritual machine.
The next moment, streaks of crimson light filled the entire Lingji, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from it.
In that instant, everyone present felt an exceptionally powerful spiritual energy emanating from that spiritual machine!
Even Gongbu Qiuye showed surprise!
"Wow... such strong spiritual energy of heaven and earth, what exactly is that spiritual machine?" Gongbu Qiuye said in surprise.
As soon as Gongbu Qiuye finished speaking, Luo Qing adjusted the cannon barrel and pressed a switch on it.
Then a crimson streak as thick as an arm shot out from it, spiraling towards the eighth-rank crimson-tailed beast.
However, it missed.
It wasn't that the eighth-grade red-tailed beast dodged, but rather that Luo Qing's aim was flawed.
The spiraling crimson beam of light struck past the eighth-grade Crimson-Tailed Beast, piercing through several lower-grade Crimson-Tailed Beasts before finally crashing into the ground.
Then, a deafening roar echoed throughout the entire mountain forest!
The storm raged, flames erupted, and the ground trembled.
It was as if a hundred or even more spirit stone grenades had exploded at once, creating a crater more than fifteen meters wide in the ground!
The power was so great that everyone present was stunned.
One hundred guards and two hundred infantrymen stared blankly at Luo Qing and the strangely shaped Lingji in front of her, their faces showing disbelief.
Fortunately, the Crimson-tailed Beasts were also frightened. The remaining hundreds of Crimson-tailed Beasts, as well as the eighth-grade Crimson-tailed Beast, stared blankly at the spirit machine in front of Luo Qing, unable to come back to their senses for a moment!
"Fire another shot, this time aim carefully!" Night Wind shouted.
"Yes, Ancestor!"
Luo Qing shouted, her face flushed with excitement.
She then adjusted the cannon barrel and aimed it at the eighth-rank red-tailed beast.
The eighth-rank red-tailed beast immediately showed a look of terror—the terror on its face was so lifelike and vivid.
Moreover, this eighth-grade red-tailed beast did something that surprised everyone present—it ran!
Suddenly it turned around and ran wildly into the distance, trying to escape!
"Run? You think you can run away!"
Luo Qing shouted excitedly, finally locking onto the eighth-grade red-tailed beast and pressing the switch.
