Chapter 519: The World of Great Conflict
"You didn't come to me this time to talk about these things, did you?"
When Bai Shasheng said this, the look of pity on Yan Xi's face instantly faded a lot.
"The Venerable wants you to create equipment that can mass-produce those airguns..."
"It would be great if it could be replaced with stronger materials that could fire more powerful projectiles."
While Yan Xi was speaking, he had already taken out a pistol from somewhere that was totally out of place in this era.
It was a completely wooden pistol, from the barrel to the slide to the magazine, all were made entirely of wood.
The only difference is that the wooden structure of the barrel and hammer is made of special ironwood, which has sufficient strength.
"In addition, Luofu Island has developed a projectile with higher strength, which can withstand ten times the firing rate of Thunder..."
"So if possible, Your Excellency also hopes that you can research high-intensity 'compressed fire energy' as soon as possible."
Reaching out to take the pistol from Yan Xi's hand, Bai Shasheng removed the magazine and looked at the inflation hole at the bottom.
By injecting "fire" into the pistol through this inflation hole, the pistol can use the power of the short burst of "fire" to shoot high-speed projectiles.
As the maker, Bai Shasheng knew better than anyone how horrifically destructive that kind of bullet was.
"Your Excellency wants to create a weapon that can be used against those with supernatural powers!"
Although it was clearly a question, Bai Shasheng used an affirmative tone when he said it.
Because after it has initially acquired the ability to kill practitioners, this type of musket no longer needs to be further strengthened.
Continuing to improve the range and shooting accuracy is the next research direction for this type of musket.
However, the Venerable proposed the need for even stronger killing power, which meant that His target was not ordinary practitioners from the beginning.
"Yes, Your Excellency has found another traitor."
"That betrayer practiced the 'Golden Body Secret Records' of the 'Sun Sutra' and possessed a true Vajra-indestructible body."
"If we want to complete the encirclement and suppression of them, we must prepare weapons that can break through their defenses in advance."
Yan Xi did not hide the idea of killing Bai Sheng, as he knew it could not be concealed anyway.
Instead of letting Bai Shasheng guess blindly, it is better to let the other party think of a solution together.
After all, in addition to being known as a "skilled craftsman", Bai Shasheng is also a recognized wise man within the Taiping Dao.
If his mortal status had not limited his performance, Yan Xi would have introduced him directly to the Venerable.
However, it is better not to introduce Baisha to His Holiness.
Because if something happens in the future, with Bai Shasheng's identity and status, there is still a hope of escaping.
"If the purpose is to encircle and suppress the indestructible body of the supernatural being..."
He looked at Yan Xi in silence for a long time, until the other party showed suspicion, Bai Shasheng spoke again.
"Then I suggest not using the pistol structure in the design drawing."
"I don't know what the designer of that blueprint had in mind when he designed such a dangerous weapon to be the size of a palm."
"But in my opinion, rather than continuing to pursue concealment and convenience, increasing its lethality and range is the right approach for this weapon."
Without waiting for Yan Xi to refute, Bai Shasheng took out two new design drawings from behind him.
The two new design drawings were derived from Li Hao's [Air Gun Design Drawings] and were new weapons with higher firing rates and greater lethality.
If any human on Earth saw these two designs, they would probably exclaim in surprise.
Because these two new design drawings are clearly rifles with high rate of fire, high precision and long range, as well as artillery with high firepower, large size and great deterrence.
"This...you are such a genius!"
Being able to become Bai Shasheng's partner, Yan Xi is naturally not a fool.
She saw the advantages of the two new design drawings at a glance, and quickly focused her attention on the design drawing of the artillery.
"How many times can this thing be magnified?"
Yan Xi asked in shock after keenly noticing the size markings on the design drawing.
"If we can use the sacred tree of the Qingmu Sect, or meteorite iron from outer space to make it..."
"Even if the size of this firearm is enlarged two or three times, it can still withstand it."
After a slight pause, Bai Shasheng continued to add.
"However, in order to drive this firearm, you must have a special 'compressed fire'..."
"That is beyond the limit of my equipment. I need a few true practitioners to help me refine the 'fire energy'."
After a brief hesitation, Yan Xi agreed to Bai Shasheng's request without hesitation.
"No problem. I will ask His Majesty to send a few Dan Ding Sect practitioners to help you when I get back."

At the same time, Tianyi Sect on Luofu Island.
"We... are subverting the existing order of this world..."
Taoist Tianyi held the improved musket in his hand with trembling hands, his eyes full of shock.
Although this improved musket was scrapped, the barrel had exploded into a trumpet shape.
But the pieces of fine iron that exploded like watermelons not far away were enough to illustrate the power of this improved musket.
The projectile was fired at ten times the speed of thunder, or ten times the speed of sound...
Even if one is a true master of supernatural powers, he would probably have to consider the cost of taking this bullet head-on.
Under normal circumstances, if a practitioner wants to possess the same destructive power, he must have at least thirty to fifty years of attainment and practice in thunder magic.
In contrast, the consumables used for this musket are nothing more than wood created by magic.
Regardless of its "one-time" nature.
Even if it is made purely by hand, it will only take three to five days.
What's more, Taoist Tianyi knew that besides himself, there were other people in the world who were also researching and improving this kind of musket.
As long as the material problem can be solved, it is basically impossible for the product to become scrapped after one use.
By that time, practitioners should really withdraw from the stage of this era.
"Your Excellency, we will definitely win this time!"
With a flash of determination in his eyes, Taoist Tianyi put away the broken musket in his hand.
So what if we withdraw from the stage of this era? Practitioners, or the way of heavenly beings, should have withdrawn from the stage of this world long ago.
As early as the era when the Sun Star Lord ruled the world of heaven and man, the Tianyi Taoist had developed a special technological route called "firearms" for the other party.
Unfortunately, the Sun Star God did not use "firearms" for violence, but rather used it more as a tool to promote the improvement of people's livelihood, which led to his eventual fall.
Today's Tianyi Taoists firmly believe that only by keeping violence firmly in their hands can the tragedy of the Sun Star Lord be prevented from happening again.
Moreover, the birth of the musket merely symbolizes the transfer of "authority of force".
As long as the practitioners are willing to give up oppressing mortals by force.
Then they can also call the wind and rain, safeguard people's livelihood, predict good and bad luck, and mediate public opinion.
The only difference is that the status of practitioners is no longer so high, and they have changed their way of life.
After all, the Sun Star Lord has never thought of completely eliminating the existence of practitioners.
