Bad people in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 256 Studying Jiuding
Bei Mingzi's cultivation ability far exceeded Tian Hao's expectation. It took him less than half a month to fiddle with two small spirit and star gathering formations.

The Star Gathering Formation is a step forward based on the Tiangang Big Dipper Formation. Although it is far from the expected 360 five-circle star sword formation, it can still gather star power stably. At most, it is limited to the seven compatible Big Dipper stars. .

The Spirit Gathering Formation is also easy to use. The Great Zhou Tianqi Movement itself is based on the Bagua Formation to guide the surrounding heaven and earth energy to bless the body. It only needs to be separated and targeted to evolve and strengthen. At the same time, it is also combined with Tiangang. Part of the mystery of the sword formation.

Although they are all rough, at least the purpose is achieved and you can try it.

For this reason, Bei Mingzi personally went out, Wu Yazi Chi Songzi and the four Tianzong elders on the mountain cooperated to perform the new Tiangang Beidou Formation, and Wu Yazi's eight direct disciples used the modified Tiangang Sword Formation.

The Tiangang Beidou Formation is inside, and the Tiangang Sword Formation is outside. One pulls the starlight, and the other pulls the surrounding heaven and earth energy.

Because it is specially used to gather starlight and the vitality of heaven and earth, the effect in this aspect is stronger and more can be gathered.

This was accomplished, but something unexpected happened.

I saw that the concentration of the gathered star power and the energy of heaven and earth actually conflicted with each other after reaching a certain level. As the concentration increased, the conflict became more intense, and even interfered with the operation of the formation.

"No, the two cannot coexist. There needs to be a reconciliation hub."

When the conflict reached a point where it was difficult to suppress, Bei Mingzi signaled to stop the formation.

This is just like the Tai Chi diagram. It is difficult for the two poles of yin and yang to coexist. A line is needed to separate the two sides and reconcile them.

They immediately thought of He's Bi, which was a treasure that could contain starlight and the vitality of heaven and earth at the same time.

But that thing is made of jade after all and is too fragile. Once the energy impact is too strong, it will inevitably collapse.

"We need to forge two heavy weapons to suppress the two formations."

Tian Hao thought for a while and suggested that in addition to reconciliation, he could also choose to get two treasures to suppress the two formations and stabilize the energy of the formations, so that even if there is a conflict, it can be manually adjusted.

"Nine cauldrons?"

Bei Mingzi and others were thoughtful, and immediately thought of the legendary Jiuding. It happened that their Taoist school had records of the Jiuding obtained from the Great Zhou classics.

They can't get the real Jiuding, but if it's just a simplified version, it shouldn't be difficult.

"Go and ask Mr. Shui Han to come over."

Wu Yazi told the eight disciples that if they want to forge a heavy weapon like Jiuding, they have to look to Mr. Shui Han.

"Yes, Master!"

The eight people took the order and went to Mr. Shui Han's place to invite him.

"Forging Jiuding?"

Master Xu who came over was very surprised after hearing Wu Yazi's request. He immediately glanced at the other people and looked at Tian Hao. Seeing the twinkling in his eyes, he knew it must be this brother's idea.

"Mr. Possible casting?"

Bei Mingzi was very polite. He had seen this master's casting skills before, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that his skills were miraculous. He was probably not weaker than sword-making masters such as Gan Jiang Mo Xena.

"There are too few relevant records. I need to see the current Jiuding with my own eyes."

After being silent for a while, Master Xu decided to give it a try, but he needed to study the Jiuding in the Qin Palace.

Although there are Taoist records of Emperor Yu casting the Nine Tripods, they are not detailed. It is difficult to cast the Nine Tripods through this method. It is best to look at the Nine Tripods inherited from Daxia.

Although it is not the Jiuzhou tripod cast by Emperor Yu, it is still a copy and is of great research value.

"Chisong, Wuya, you will accompany Mr. Shui Han to Xianyang and bring a Tianshou Pill with you."

Bei Mingzi did not hesitate and immediately gave orders to Chisongzi and Wuyazi.

It is obviously impossible to study Jiuding in vain, but it would be completely different if there was a Tianshou Pill.

It is the top elixir of their Taoist school, not weaker than the Immortal Gathering Pill of the Yin and Yang family, but the effect is different. The Tianshou Dan is used to save lives. As long as you still have breath, you can save your life by taking the next Tianshou Dan. If you are alone Taking it can also prolong life.

Of course, it is said to prolong life, but in fact it just makes the body more active, makes the body in better condition and less likely to get sick.

Human life itself is not short, but few people live to the end of their lifespan. Most of them die because of premature decline of certain organ functions in the body.

Tianshou Dan is made with this as its core purpose to enhance the vitality of the body and achieve the purpose of prolonging life.

This is an irresistible temptation for the emperor. I believe that King Qin will agree. Moreover, they are just looking at Jiuding and not taking it away. King Qin has no reason to refuse.

"Yes, Master!"

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Chisongzi and Wuyazi took the order. Wuyazi took Master Xu straight down the mountain, while Chisongzi went to get the Tianshou Pill.

"What heavy weapon do you plan to use to suppress the formation of stars?"

Bei Mingzi looked at the disciple. Now he could cast the Jiuding and use it to arrange the Nine Palaces and Bagua formation, which would be much more stable.

However, the star formation still lacks heavy weapons to suppress it. Although there are plans to cast the main sword, the sword is not enough to suppress a large formation.

"bell!"

When Tian Hao mentioned the type of heavy weapon he wanted to cast, he thought of the Chaos Clock, or the Eastern Emperor Clock, in the novels of the previous life.

This inspiration comes from the Golden Crow clone, who has been clamoring to be the prehistoric version of Donghuang Taiyi, and to get a Donghuang bell specially for giving bells to people.

According to the settings in the novel, the Chaos Clock depicts the sun, moon and stars on the outside, surrounded by earth, water, wind and fire. In the middle are mountains and rivers, and all races of the prehistoric era are looming.

This image is actually similar to Xuanyuan Sword, but Xuanyuan Sword is a sword after all and is not as thick as a bell. Therefore, it is most suitable to cast a bell according to the star power drawn by the Zhoutian Star Sword Array.

I just happened to get a lot of meteorites from Bohai, and the metal ratio in them is pretty good. After the Star Sword is cast, there should be a lot of leftover materials, all of which can be turned into a bell and a super big one with a height of more than ten feet. bell.

Creations of this size are completely achievable in this world. After all, even the Demon God of War can be made, let alone a bell.

"bell!"

After thinking about it, Bei Mingzi and others felt that this idea was feasible.

There are only a few important weapons in the world, and compared to them, a clock is more suitable.

Moreover, the meteorites from the Bohai Sea should have almost been initially refined, and they only need to be transported back to start forging.

Of course they couldn't transport those meteorites back directly. The metal content in them was too low, less than [-]%, and most of them were just stones. They might as well smelt them on site to extract the meteorite iron inside.

Anyway, Elder Xinzhai is there, and he can use Taoism to maintain the star power in the meteorite, so it will be much easier to transport it back.

What everyone thought was correct, Elder Xinzhai's smelting was indeed coming to an end, and the smelting efficiency assisted by Taoism was far beyond what normal methods could match.

But even if it is smelted into meteorite, it must be loaded on dozens of ships before it is all transported away.

Fortunately, the southeast wind is blowing now, and the fleet can sail with the help of the wind. Otherwise, it would not be easy to go upstream.

In addition, with the Taoist name in charge, no one dared to come out to make trouble. Finally, they arrived at the Weishui River smoothly and disembarked at the ferry closest to Taiyi Mountain.

In response, the Taoist disciples all mobilized to carry the pieces of meteorite iron up the mountain on their backs.

There was no way, Taiyi Mountain was already steep, making it impossible for carriages and horses to move. In the past, supplies needed on the mountain had to be carried on backs.

Fortunately, they are all martial arts practitioners, with strong physiques, and with the blessing of skills, it is not difficult. It only takes some time and is treated as exercise.

At the same time, Master Xu also returned from the Qin Palace. Faced with the Taoist request and a Tianshou Pill, Ying Zichu naturally had no reason to refuse.

Anyway, they have nothing to lose here, and they can still make Taoist owe a favor, and they will definitely make money without losing money, but some people are not willing to do this.

"Taoist! Jiuding!"

In the mansion, Lord Changping did not understand Taoist practices.He had also seen the Jiuding that the Qin State had snatched from the Western Zhou State. Although it looked extraordinary, it was just like that. At most, it was as good as a famous sword, or even not as useful as a famous sword.

The famous sword can also be used to enhance combat power and cultivate a strong man, but a heavy object like the Jiuding cannot be moved even if it is used to hit people.

Each of the Nine Cauldrons weighs nearly [-] kilograms, and even a strong person who practices military skills cannot lift it.

The Taoist suddenly came over and asked to see Jiuding, and even took out a Tianshou Pill, which looked weird no matter how he looked at it.

The most important thing is that the Mr. Shui Han brought by the Taoist family is from Huang Tianhou. Is it possible that the Taoist school and Huang Tianhou have cooperation or even an alliance?
"The high priest really took away a zodiac chart?"

Looking at Duke Nan of Chu who maintained his snake body, Lord Changping couldn't figure out Taoist intentions for a while.

"I took a pair away. It's very small."

Nodding the snake's head, Xiang Liu went over to take a look out of curiosity. It was indeed a very small zodiac star chart, only one foot in diameter. It was separated from the Taoist zodiac star chart, and it was very unstable. .

"Isn't it true that the Taoists stole the zodiac chart of my great Chu?"

Lord Changping asked again. He had received the news before that the zodiac chart of their Chu country had indeed been stolen, and the high priest was also killed by the other party.

It is definitely not an ordinary person who can kill the high priest quietly and take away the zodiac chart.

"Since the new high priest has personally confirmed it, it cannot be what the Taoists say. Moreover, the zodiac star chart can only be used for divination and is not of much use. Taoists are not too keen on this aspect. There is no reason to steal the zodiac chart of my great Chu when there is only one."

Xiang Liu responded based on Chu Nan Gong's memory, and was quite depressed about it.

The power of the stars is a great supplement to their alien beasts. If they absorb enough star power, they can even break the limits of the alien beasts and become divine beasts.

For example, the dragon, phoenix, three-legged golden crow and so on in ancient times are all mythical beasts, and their strength far exceeds those of other beasts.

If you can get a large amount of star power, your own strength will definitely increase a lot.

He had previously set his sights on the zodiac chart of Chu State, and was planning to wait for the body's physical strength to increase to a certain level before going over to devour it, but unexpectedly, he was caught first.

"The ones who can do such a thing are either the royal families or hundreds of schools of thought. Which family does Nan Gong think is the most suspicious?"

Lord Changping was still unwilling. At the same time, he also wanted to have a set of zodiac star charts. That kind of divination would be of great help to his plans.

"The top companies all have that ability."

Xiang Liu replied casually that it was not easy to guess in this aspect. There were too many suspicious targets.

Seeing that Duke Nan of Chu could not tell for sure, Lord Changping had no choice but to let go of the matter and turn his thoughts to Taoism.

"Xiaoyaozi, I have heard of this character before. He is a heroic man from the Guanzhong area. I thought he was a Taoist, but now it seems that there is another force behind him."

After recalling the information that had been passed from the Chu State, the Taoist family had explained their own experiences to the Chu State. The focus was on the Xiaoyaozi and the forces behind him, who had also stolen all of the Taoist's supreme secrets, and were very capable and courageous. It's amazing.

It was also related to the stolen zodiac star chart of their Chu country. He even agreed with the Taoist view that the person who stole the zodiac star chart of their Chu country must be related to Xiaoyaozi and the forces behind him.

The two methods were really very similar. While the main Taoist force was far away in the Bohai Sea, they suddenly launched an attack and stole all the Taoist's supreme secrets. They also killed many people and greatly damaged the Taoist vitality.

Over there, the Chu State dispatched many masters to the Qin-Chu border and the Chu palace was relatively empty. They stole Chu's Zodiac Star Chart and killed the high priest along the way.

It all looked like it was done by the same group of people, and since Xiaoyaozi mentioned it, it was almost irrefutable proof.

Really brave!

It’s just that he couldn’t think of any family with such courage and ability. Unfortunately, Xiaoyaozi was a strong man in the heavenly realm. Even if the Taoist master Bei Mingzi took action, he could not capture him and could only kill him. , his subordinates and close men were also dead soldiers, and they committed suicide by taking poison. Even if they want to investigate, they don’t know where to start.

The opponent's arrangement was too strict, and the only clue was the public loser.

It's a pity that the public loser has disappeared without a trace since his failure in the last battle of Longxi. He doesn't know where he has hidden.

"How are you going to deal with this dead end?"

No longer thinking about those troublesome things, Mr. Changping turned his eyes to the map hanging on the wall. It was a map of the entire Central Plains. Nowadays, the alien regions in the west and north have been added.

The six countries have secretly formed an alliance. Even if Qi joins in, although they will not directly send troops to suppress Qin, they will not hold them back.

The same was true for the Yan State. The Qin State was so powerful that it frightened the dignitaries and kings of the six kingdoms, so they were forced to join forces.

In addition, they also joined forces with the wolf clan in the north, plus the Yuezhi, so that they could form an encirclement against Qin.

They even made targeted arrangements for the many methods displayed by the bronze giant and Huang Tianhou. Those things were not invincible, and there was no absolute invincibility in the world.

So it was almost a dead end here in the Qin Kingdom. He wanted to see how Huang Tianhou and the Qin royal family would break the situation.

"Don't take it lightly, there is something very wrong with that Huang Tianhou."

Xiang Liu reminded him that he knew about Huang Tianhou, especially from Chu Nan Gong's memory that he had been killed by thunder and survived.

This kind of person must be extraordinary, more terrifying than the snare behind him, and he is a variable that must be guarded against.

"This man is indeed extraordinary, but it's a pity that he chose the young master of Qin."

With a regretful sigh, Lord Changping couldn't help but become more and more jealous of Qin.

From the Battle of Baiyue and the last Battle of Longxi, we can see the talent of Huang Tianhou, and it was this man who entered the capital of Zhao alone and risked his life, dug a tunnel under everyone's nose, and rescued Qin Gong Zizheng. And brought a black dragon back to Qin.

Today, the prestige of Qin Gong Zizheng is to some extent higher than that of Qin King Ying Zichu, and he is almost recognized by the Qin State as the next generation of Qin King.

If he could have such great talents to help him, he might have returned to his country to inherit the throne and become the new generation of King of Chu.

Qin is so lucky to have so many talented people helping it. Is it true that God has destined the world to return to Qin?

"Nangong thinks Huang Tianhou is going to cast a new machine giant in Longxi?"

After a while to calm down, Mr. Changping turned his attention to the Longxi area on the map.

He has returned to Xianyang since the end of the Longxi War. After all, he has a special status. He could go there in the name of war, but he must come back after the war.

Then I heard that a huge amount of coal was being mined and shipped there in Longxi, so much that it could pile up into a hill.

Such a large amount of charcoal made him very worried, and he initially speculated that Huang Tianhou might want to imitate the bronze giant and create a new machine giant.

If they really create many machine giants, even if they make targeted arrangements, it will be very difficult to fight.

"The core of the mechanism technique lies in the source of power. Just like the skills we cultivators cultivate, the larger the mechanism creation, the stronger the power it needs. Although Huang Tianhou's people snatched the bronze giant from the public loser, but when the public loser evacuated But it took away the power core of the bronze giant.

Even if they make a power core, it will definitely be difficult to reach the original level. It will be very difficult to control and it will be difficult to apply it in war.

Moreover, the machine giant is too big to hide. As long as it is noticed in advance, it can be dealt with. The trump card prepared by Longxi should not be the new machine giant. "

Xiang Liu didn't think that Longxi would be able to cast a machine giant. Without a powerful enough power core, even if the machine giant was built, it would be nothing more than a dead thing and of no use.

He knew this very well. You must know that he had experienced the era of Huangdi and Chiyou, and had witnessed the terror of the bronze giant with his own eyes, so that he had to avoid the edge and hide.

At the same time, he also knew that the power core of the bronze giant was made of fallen stars, and only a power core made of fallen stars could drive such a huge mechanical creation.

Nowadays, it is no longer possible to create such powerful mechanical creations.

He was sure of this. Unless someone could dig out more of the bronze giant that was maimed back then, it would be impossible to recreate it.

"Then what are they doing? Are they forging new war equipment?"

Mr. Changping frowned. He had been thinking about it since he got the news, but unfortunately he still couldn't guess it.

Just like the three mechanical crossbows and the nearly unlimited arrows last time, he did not expect it and did not get any information. In the end, he was caught off guard. The entire Yuezhi coalition was slaughtered, and their The plan failed.
