Chapter 223 What, Wang Yangming?
Ang!
The lord's mansion is in a quiet room.
Xia Tian sat cross-legged, dragon-shaped breaths circulating in his mouth and nose.
A large amount of spiritual power condensed into a white cloud state under the action of the Feng Shui formation. The silver thunder power filled with it continued to flash around Xia Tian's body, reflecting the skin on his body as crystal clear as jade. Every bone exudes a faint golden light!
"Huh! Are you still at the limit of eight transformations? I didn't expect to hit a bottleneck..."
Xia Tian suddenly opened his eyes and frowned slightly.
Now, half a month has passed since the opening of the "City of Outstanding People".
A month has passed since "the world was unlocked and the vampires invaded".
In these days, Xia Tian not only entered the recruitment hall to receive some outstanding people who were interested in "Bai Yujing".
He has not relaxed his tempering and improvement of his own cultivation.
After all, after the "third round of fusion", the legendary "extraordinary creatures" will inevitably come...
By then, if the cultivation base cannot reach a high enough level, it will inevitably fall into passivity.
According to Xia Tian's original estimate, relying on the bonuses such as the "Taotie Cauldron" and "Luck Blessing, Feng Shui Formation", it should not take too long to complete the "First Eight times” transformation.
Unexpectedly, this time I was stuck by the "bottleneck".
No, strictly speaking it is not a "bottleneck", because with the characteristic of "Genius", he is almost not restricted by bottlenecks when practicing.
What really stopped him was that his own "power of mind" was not strong enough!
"Just like driving a 'spiritual weapon' requires sufficient mental power to exert its power."
"The body of a living being itself can also be regarded as a living spiritual weapon. Only the power of the 'mind' Only when the force is strong enough can it be controlled well!"
Xia Tian felt his true body which was nearly nine meters tall.
The "Taotie Cauldron" allows him to continuously strengthen his body just by eating.
But the stronger the body, the more mental power it takes to control it.
If it were other human beings, the same level of mind power would actually be enough to enter nine transformations, but it would not be enough for him!
"Sure enough, everything has its pros and cons, and there is no absolute advantage..."
Xia Tian was slightly troubled.
Such a powerful physique allowed him to fight through eight transformations and beat a foreign "eternal genius" to death.
But now it has become a constraint on myself, preventing me from breaking through to the ninth level of transformation!
“Can we only spend time to polish our mind?”
“The power of mind” is related to a person’s experience and experiences in a sense.
For example, some historical figures have complete experiences of their own lives, and even have experiences in the world of "Sea of Illusion" with very powerful minds.
As for Xia Tian, a lord, after all, he was just a student who had just graduated from university two or three months ago.
The mental strength is naturally not as strong as these outstanding people. If you want to break through the nine transformations, it seems that you can only rely on the accumulation of time?
“Forget it, let’s go take a look at the Talent Recruitment Hall first.”
Xia Tian stopped practicing, walked out of the lord’s mansion, and prepared to enter the “City of Outstanding Talents” through the Talent Recruitment Hall.
“Is this Bai Yujing?”
A group of ghost vultures happened to be escorting several "black gold" chariots from outside the bluestone city wall. A ragged and haggard human race ran out of the vehicle. After entering the territory, tears finally filled his eyes!
"Grandpa, great, we are safe! Finally we don’t have to worry about being used as food by those pig-headed men."
"Unfortunately, both mother and brother were eaten by those pig-headed men yesterday. , they couldn't wait for the heavenly soldiers to arrive, woo!"
"Thank you, master, thank you general for saving us! We are willing to act like cows and horses to repay your kindness!"
Because in "Renjie" During the opening period of "City", you can continue to gather "invitations" by developing the territory.
Bai Yujing, who originally had no active attacks from foreigners, started to activate the "attack" mode towards the surroundings in the past half month.
Within a radius of two hundred miles, the alien races that once had enmity with humans have all faced the revenge of the humans.
In particular, some alien races that enslaved humans as food or slaves directly ushered in the trapped camp led by Yunjiao Guards led by Zhao Yun and Hua Rong, Gao Shun, and Daniu, and The ghost eagle guards led by Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen and the cleaning of the chariot camp!
Especially the "Chariot Battalion".
Today's black gold chariot is an improved version developed by Qi Jiguang. In addition to the original weapons, it also adds shooting platforms, collision horns, razor wheels and other structures. It is even equipped with the equipment just a few days ago. The comprehensive combat power of the successfully produced "Suzaku Gun" is even comparable to that of a seventh-level or even eighth-level mortal being.
This group of people was rescued by Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong from a group of two-meter-tall pig-headed men who had reached the ninth level of mortal level. They came from various human strongholds that were captured by the pig-headed men.
They are treated as slaves on weekdays, doing work such as mining and planting. If they are injured during work, they will be directly used as food by the pig-headed people, smashed into minced meat and mixed with bones to make "dishes" !
Yesterday, when the pig-headed men were preparing to kill a group of people as sacrifices to their "ancestors".
The army of ghost vultures burning with green will-o'-the-wisps descended from the sky and attacked them together with the "black gold chariots" rushing out from the ground.
“Human! You dare to invade my pig-headed territory and seek death!”
Facing the "Suzaku Gun", the barrel became brighter, and then flew out a large number of "flaming feathers" like metal torrents, reflecting half of the sky. The black gold chariot charged, trying to rely on its own mane as hard as steel and various kinds of The "armor" made of stolen goods mixed with grease resisted the "pig-headed man". It only lasted for half an hour, and it completely became history.
"Thank you, master, thank you, general..."
A group of people cried bitterly, facing Lin Chong, who was wearing a bronze spiritual weapon armor on the back of the ghost vulture, holding a snake spear of eight feet, and the black gold warrior On top of the car, Lu Zhishen knelt down to express his thanks, leaning on a six-barrelled Suzaku gun and carrying a cold iron Zen staff!
"Don't be too polite, we are all human beings and we should help each other. Since we, Bai Yujing, have the ability, how can we allow foreign oppression!"
"Besides, it is not me and Lu who you should be grateful for. Senior brother, it should be Lord Xia!”
Lin Chong stopped these people from kneeling down, and even motioned for everyone to thank Xia Tian who came out.
"Master Lu, Coach Lin, thank you for your hard work..."
Xia Tian didn't care about this.
He smiled and nodded at Lu Zhishen and Lin Chong.
After joining the territory, Lin Chong still took his original "Ghost Eagle Guard" to assume the position of the leader of the first guard.
Lu Zhishen, on the other hand, needed to accumulate "Buddha power" by doing good deeds and saving people because of his talent.
For this reason, he took the initiative to run around these days, and together with Lin Chong, he saved a large number of humans!
"My lord, the Sa family has never cultivated good deeds in their lives. They just like to kill people and set fires..."
"While killing foreigners, you can also accumulate 'good deeds', which is really two birds with one stone. Besides, your lord and The 'Suzaku Gun' invented by General Qi and Prime Minister Zhuge is really powerful, as well as the 'Six Cleaning Bullets', all the noisy pig-headed men calmed down after a while, which is really to the taste of the Sa family!"
On the black gold chariot, Lu Zhishen touched the six-barrelled "Suzaku Gun" with a very happy expression on his face.
Under normal circumstances, this Suzaku gun must be mounted on the "Black Gold Chariot" before it can be used. Only Lu Zhishen, who has now reached seven transformations, can raise it with both hands and shoot directly.
While opening his own "territory to become a Buddha" during the battle, a five-meter-tall huge translucent golden Buddha controlled a three-meter-long "six-barreled spiritual weapon-level machine gun" and sprinkled fiery red fire. The rune bullets beat hundreds of pig-headed men until their limbs flew into pieces, leaving the smell of roasted pork everywhere.
Also, a celebrity clan member knelt down one by one and shouted, "The Bodhisattva is coming, with great mercy and compassion"!
"However, there is one thing that I need to tell you, sir..."
Lin Chong thought of something and said.
"Before those pig-headed men were wiped out, they threatened that their side had surrendered to the Cyclops clan. If we dared to attack them, the Cyclops would avenge them!"
"Cyclops?"
As the only creature within a thousand miles that appears in the sky above the secret realm other than the human race, the "vision" reaches a height of 900 meters.
These "Cyclops" are powerful beings that can achieve nine transformations in adulthood.
Not only does it have a huge body that is nearly ten meters tall and three stories tall, it has a huge strength of over one hundred thousand kilograms, it is extremely powerful.
Moreover, according to information from the Sky Eagle Guard, it is suspected that all its members can control lightning to attack... Even heavy-duty spiritual weapons such as "Suzaku Guns and Meteor Crossbows" may not be able to cause much damage to the huge bodies of those Cyclops. harm!
“Cyclops…”
Xia Tian’s face was also slightly solemn.
Like the Vampires, this Cyclops also has certain legends on earth, and it is said that it is a descendant of mythical creatures. It can be said that the only alien race within thousands of miles that still poses a threat to "Bai Yujing" is probably these Cyclops!
And now.
My own cultivation has temporarily fallen into a "bottleneck". In terms of physical strength, it is not necessarily stronger than the Cyclops.
Once the Cyclops chooses to attack the territory, there may be a real threat.
However, the current situation of the human race is such that it is impossible for the human race to compromise in the face of any alien race. Even if the Cyclops really dares to attack, it will never come back!
[Your territory rescued a group of humans, territory luck +2200, obtained: exquisite iron treasure chest (transformation)·1, silver invitation·1]
Moreover, rescuing these humans not only received additional rewards.
Among them, there are some human elites and even talents with high potential!
"The younger one is called Tang Long, and he is a blacksmith. I thank the lord for saving my life..."
A man with money spots similar to a leopard growing on his body, wearing tattered clothes, The middle-aged man with calloused hands knelt down towards Xia Tian, with a cautious expression on his face.
“Tang Long, ‘Golden Leopard’ Tang Long!”
Xia Tian glanced at him slightly, his eyes slightly interested.
"Do you know the nickname of the villain?"
The blacksmith, who was originally frightened, had a look of surprise on his face.
This Tang Long has some origins. He is one of the "Seventy-two Disciples" of Liangshan. Because his ancestors all made weapons for the imperial court, he is therefore responsible for making weapons for Liangshan. Armor is a highly skilled technical talent!
If there was such a blacksmith-like talent before coming into contact with “Go-getter Moye”, Xia Tian would definitely be very satisfied.
However, now I don't like the "Golden Leopard" who is just an expert.
Of course, it has not yet been confirmed whether "Gan Jiang Moye" will come to the territory. Even if he does, he will have to wait until the third fusion of heaven and earth.
Therefore, this "Golden Leopard" is suitable for its purpose. It can forge some weapons for the territory that need to be kept secret and are not convenient for the gray dwarves to make!
"Go to Mr. Wen and ask him to 'register' them! In addition, let Shen Lian arrange for someone to observe the behavior of these people for a few days, so as not to mix into spies..."
Xia Tian reminded One sentence.
During these days, Bai Yujing sent troops to conquer the foreign races.
The "Sky Eagle Guard" discovered that there seemed to be some people in the territory secretly informing the aliens!
Immediately, these people were arrested and imprisoned in the "Tiger Prison" to eliminate the spies in the territory.
However, a complete inventory cannot be achieved for the time being. If all people who have had contact with foreign races are included as suspects and carefully investigated, it will inevitably cause people to panic.
Therefore, for the time being, we only dispatch the "Eagle Guards" for surveillance.
If there are enough suspects, they will be brought to the "Star Hall" for "star care".
In this way, people who may have different intentions within the territory have been greatly eliminated.
"I think that by modifying the 'Tiger Crouching Cannon' and adding twenty-three runes such as firmness, armor-breaking, and great strength, it should be able to deal with creatures that have transformed nine times. It also works on extraordinary creatures... What does Pavilion Master Zhu think?”
It is worth mentioning that Qi Jiguang died before Zhu Youxiao was born, so he was not familiar with this emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
However, when he met the other person, he was able to tell his detailed life story.
In fact, many royal secrets and military equipment that are very confidential to the court can be known in detail, which makes Qi Jiguang a little curious about them!
Coupled with the technical attainments of Zhu Youxiao, who was promoted to Grand Master, Qi Jiguang became much more determined about coming to Bai Yujing.
"Mr. Zhuge, please believe me, as long as I can come to Bai Yujing, I will use this 'unshakable tongue' to convince the foreigners to defect and surrender!"
Previous In the courtyard, several outstanding figures were being received by Zhuge Liang, talking nonstop and showing off what they could do! (The setting has been slightly modified. The front yard of the Talent Recruitment Hall can be entered by consuming talents’ own luck, and the ‘invitation’ is required for introduction)
During this half month, the recruitment hall also received many "visits".
But what makes Xia Tian a little disappointed is that among these people, there is no one worthy of his personal invitation!
Or, the potential of some people is worth spending an "invitation" on.
For example, Mi Heng, Jiang Qian, Zhu Hai, Mao Sui... there is no lack of medium or even excellent potential, and many people only need silver invitations.
But Xia Tian was not in a hurry to send the invitation.
Just because these people seem to be more inclined to compare multiple companies before choosing a suitable territory to join, some outstanding people also put forward relatively "excessive" treatment requirements.
Based on the principle of "better to lack than to waste", Xia Tian temporarily kept the invitation in his hands and decided to simply wait until it was synthesized into a golden or even jade-white quality invitation.
Speaking of Yubai invitations, during this period, he also tried to send invitations through "designated invitations" to two super heroes who he expected to be the chief officers of the territory's "Military Affairs Office" !
But everything seems to have fallen into disgrace. So far, no super hero has come to visit in person.
This made Xia Tian realize.
Sure enough, without face-to-face communication and understanding, super heroes would not easily accept the lord's invitation.
However, the prerequisite for face-to-face invitation is that you can get in touch with "super talents".
But so far, he has not really determined the location of a super hero, so that he has a pile of "jade white invitations" of astonishing value in his hand, but he has been unable to send them out!
“Lord Xia!”
At this time, Xia Tian found Tang Bohu walking in from outside.
"It's Tang Jieyuan! Is something wrong?"
Xia Tian looked at him with a smile.
These days Tang Bohu is "painting" every day in the territory. In addition to painting "landscapes" to promote the territory, he also painted some spiritual-grade "figure paintings" for the outstanding figures in the territory.
And these paintings actually have a very powerful characteristic, that is, they can retain a ray of the opponent's "soul". Once a hero dies in battle, you can use this painting to recall the person's "remnant spirit"!
This is definitely very valuable, especially for Bai Yujing who owns the rare architectural terracotta warriors and horses.
It also made Xia Tian realize that he had definitely underestimated the value of a top golden hero to the human race territory before.
Even if you are just a "literati or painter", with the blessing of special powers, talents, and characteristics, you are still qualified to become the foundation of a human territory.
"I told that friend about the situation of 'Bai Yujing'. He was going to visit me in the afternoon and asked if you were free today!"
Tang Bohu said with a smile on his face. .
After these days of observation, he has completely determined that Bai Yujing is a suitable territory for him, and he has the idea of coming here.
Therefore, he worked harder to persuade "Brother Yangming", and now Brother Yangming finally agreed.
However. Except for the first day, Xia Tian spent most of his time practicing in the territory, so he had to confirm the time first to avoid being empty.
"Okay, I'm going to bring Brother Yangming here..."
After confirming that Xia Tian was free in the afternoon, Tang Bohu turned around and was about to pick him up.
"Wait..."
Xia Tian stood up suddenly and looked at this "romantic talent" from the Ming Dynasty with some disbelief.
"Tang Jieyuan, what did you call that friend?"
Taking a deep breath, Xia Tian held back her excitement and said.
These days, Tang Bohu regularly goes out to "reminisce" with his friends every day, out of respect for them.
Xia Tian has never asked him about that person's name, but now he finally heard the other person's name from his mouth!
Although, it’s just two words.
But Xia Tian couldn't help but stand up, and even sounded excited.
"Well, Brother Yangming! Does Lord Xia know about him?"
"Brother Yangming, his surname is Wang and his name is Shouren!"
Xia Tian There was a look of joy on his face as if he had been hit by a huge surprise!
