Fire Monster

Chapter 309 The beginning
So Zhao Guanshan began to retreat inside the spirit tower.

But rather than calling it a retreat, it would be more accurate to call it intensive training.

He knew better than anyone what level of spirit tower he was assembling and deploying.

Now everything is ready, except for the east wind.

That's right, he needs to use up all those spirit stones.

And nothing is more cost-effective than tempering the pure yang body.

In just five days, he completed the fourth nine-level tempering, consuming 144 spirit stones.

Then, in the next six days, he successfully completed the fifth nine-level tempering, consuming 180 spirit stones.

When he completed the sixth nine-layer tempering, the spiritual stones consumed were 216

So far, he has consumed a total of 540 spirit stones.

Just crazy.

However, at this point, there were only ten spirit stones left in the ash bag, which were kept at the bottom of the box.

In addition, he also used an operating table to grind and produce eight hundred fake spirit stones that looked exactly like the spirit stones and had the same weight. After irradiating them with high-pressure spiritual energy, he put them back.

This is a method he came up with to conceal the truth, and it seems to be going smoothly so far.

In short, he used up all the one thousand spirit stones. Half of them were used to temper his pure yang body, and the other half were used to meet deadlines and reserved as fuel.

"It's almost time to usher in a new era."

Zhao Guanshan exhaled a breath of foul air, then quickly blocked his consciousness. With an expressionless face, he lifted the bag of ash into the huge reactor of the Spirit Supply Tower, placed it solemnly there, and then closed it.

Then he began the final deployment sprint, and in just half a day, he completely completed the internal control psychic circuit and related supporting facilities of the spirit supply tower.

At this point, he threw fifty perfect magic pills into the Spirit Supply Tower without hesitation, along with two hundred spirit stones.

Because this is a seven-level spirit-offering pagoda.

That’s right, what Zhao Guanshan produced was level seven!
He had not originally planned this, but the discovery of so many complete and important core components gave him tremendous confidence and a huge advantage.

Coupled with the secret book given to him by Cheng Muye, he was able to complete this feat of stealing the day right under everyone's noses.

The seventh-level spirit-offering tower is completely different from the sixth-level spirit-offering tower.

If the former can only be regarded as a conventional mechanized corps, then the latter is a heavily armored corps with full-domain combat capabilities on land, sea and air.

But this seven-level spirit-offering tower was not prepared for Wu Jin, Wu Yuan and others, nor was it prepared for a smoother voyage.

This is a spirit tower that belongs only to him.

He wants to fight back!

He wanted to be the 'national teacher', so he would not go to the Zhenhaidao Palace, because if he went there, he would surely die.

As long as he goes, everything will go to the unknown!
His fate had already been tasted and devoured by that thing.

There is one thing that the thing should be right about, it likes to taste the complex emotions of human beings and likes to play with the tortuous fate of human beings.

Therefore, this thing's perception should be extremely sharp, and it should be able to see changes in people's mentality.

So, screw the cooperation. As long as it is cooperation, no matter how good the conditions offered are, it will only become one of the most delicious dishes on its table.

This is something Zhao Guanshan understood and was certain of from the very beginning, and he would never waver.

Even if he believed most of what that thing said and thought that 90% of it was true.

But what if these 90% truths are just to cover up the 10% lies?

So Zhao Guanshan was suspicious of the thing that could talk to him so freely and claimed to be a "devil".

It is very likely to be a fall!
There are three pieces of evidence. In the previous conversation, it never mentioned the spiritual world, but every Qigong practitioner should know how important the spiritual world is to the real world.

There is also Sui Quanyou who escaped from Wu Jin's team.

That day, he escaped with his body covered in golden light.

Zhao Guanshan did not mention this matter, nor did he mention that thing, because not everyone could see the golden light.

In the second half of that conversation, he was already on high alert, trying to block his consciousness as quickly as possible.

Then there is one last piece of evidence, which is the eight-level spirit-offering tower of the Qingcheng Taoist Palace. It was still barely able to maintain operation, so why was it completely destroyed in the blink of an eye?

In addition, the reason why the Qingcheng Taoist Palace was destroyed is probably not that simple.

But no matter what, Zhao Guanshan only needs to return to Linjiang Prefecture to find out the truth.

Of course, before that, he also needed to say hello to Wu Jin and others.

A control jade plate appeared in Zhao Guanshan's hand. As he operated it, a ray of spiritual light lit up. In an instant, the spirit stones in the reactor of the entire seven-level spirit supply tower were stimulated, and the spiritual energy vortex force field began to change immediately.

At this time, Wu Jin and others had not yet realized what was happening. They were very busy during this period. Because the defense of the ship was reduced, the Demon-Suppressing Net could only resist the magic fire. The high-level evil demons that kept attacking were enough to make them run around. When they had some free time, they would catch a few Twilight Dust Moths to save spirit stones.

In short, they were very busy. In addition, Zhao Guanshan said he wanted to go into seclusion, so they hadn't come to disturb him for a long time.

So when they saw the psychic vortex appear at this moment, they were a little confused. They thought that Zhao Guanshan had finally figured it out and was debugging it.

But the next second they widened their eyes in surprise, because the extremely rich high-pressure spiritual energy suddenly changed its normal state and sprayed towards the sky, reaching a height of 100,000 meters in one breath!
The area within a radius of thousands of miles was illuminated, and even the high-pressure spiritual energy beams emitted by the seven-level spirit-supplying tower of the Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace could be seen.

There’s no way, the seventh-level spirit offering tower is just that powerful.

Previously, more than 500 perfect magic pills were enough to make a sixth-level Spirit Supply Tower explode, but that little bit of energy was just enough to keep the seventh-level Spirit Supply Tower in normal operation.

In fact, to activate the seventh-level spirit supply tower, at least one hundred perfect magic pills are needed. These days, Wu Jin and his team have only collected fifty, so the remaining gap is filled by Zhao Guanshan using spirit stones.

This is a spiritual stone, and its energy efficiency is even more terrifying.

This almost instantly brought the operating efficiency of the seventh-level spirit supply tower to the extreme!

And the effect this brings is explosive.

After the high-pressure spiritual energy, which was almost a hundred times that of a sixth-level spirit supply tower, rushed to an altitude of 100,000 meters, it was immediately transformed into a giant demon-suppressing net 500 kilometers long and 500 kilometers wide under the control of the preset rune matrix.

In the area covered by the Demon-Suppressing Net, no matter how arrogant the evil demons are, no matter how fierce the demon fires, as well as the countless demon thunders and endless demonic energy, they will all be caught in the net.

It was caught in one net, and then was quickly killed, burned, purified, and refined under the terrifying high-pressure spiritual energy impact of the seventh-level spirit supply tower!
Then it transformed into a vast amount of primary and rough spiritual energy, which was sucked into the seventh-level spirit supply tower.

The spiritual energy obtained from this net alone is equivalent to five hundred perfect magic pills.

That’s right, the seventh-level Spirit Supply Tower is already self-sufficient and can generate huge profits.

Otherwise, for a Taoist palace as large as Linjiang Prefecture to rely on those small spirit-supplying towers to supply spiritual energy, that would be a joke.

Even over the past decade or so, the Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace has been trying to launch a nationwide enlightenment and industrial revolution in cultivating immortals. It has been so grand and rapid in development, but without sufficient spiritual energy, it would be useless!

Everything is supplied by the seventh-level Spirit Supply Tower. It can be said that the seventh-level Spirit Supply Tower supplies at least 70% of the spiritual energy of Linjiang Prefecture.

So now, even though Zhao Guanshan invested 450 spirit stones in advance, he actually made his money back with just this one move.

But what he has to do has just begun.

"Fellow Daoist Guanshan! Fellow Daoist Guanshan, have you deployed the seventh-level Spiritual Offering Tower?"

On the big ship, Wu Jin shouted excitedly, very excited and worried.

Really, if it was a level six Spirit Offering Tower, he would trust Zhao Guanshan very much, but if it was a level seven Spirit Offering Tower, he would have nightmares even when he couldn’t control the jade plate!

Zhao Guanshan smiled at them and did not answer. He just continued to debug the seventh-level spirit supply tower. They could not rush in anyway. The seventh-level spirit supply tower did not require physical barriers. It only needed to place down a spiritual barrier formed by spiritual energy vortices in a certain area. Even someone as strong as Wu Jin could not rush in, and dared not rush in!

Now this big ship is completely under his control.

With the huge thrust transmitted from the Demon-Suppressing Net, the ship began to move, but it did not head towards Linjiang Prefecture. Instead, it circled around the Taoist Palace of Linjiang Prefecture.

One after another, large amounts of demonic fire demons were refined and transformed into the extremely surging high-pressure spiritual energy inside the seventh-level spirit supply tower.

Zhao Guanshan divided these high-pressure spiritual energies into three parts.

One will automatically throw out a super-large demon-suppressing net to continuously and orderly collect demonic fire and evil spirits, catch fish, and create better economic effects.

One part forms a second psychic vortex force field, enveloping the entire ship.

This time, Wu Jin and others could not only not get in, but also could not get out.

Then, Zhao Guanshan used the third portion of high-pressure spiritual energy to irradiate and impact new high-level substances. Thanks to the old friends from the Qingcheng Taoist Palace for sending him the remains of the Taoist Palace, he had enough materials to irradiate and impact.

This time, the material standard he wants to irradiate and impact is Destiny Level 1080!
That’s right, he still has to continue deploying upgrades and upgrade the Spirit Offering Tower to level eight.

Then, he would use the super-large demon-suppressing net formed by the eight-level spirit-offering tower to cover the entire Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace.

This is equivalent to directly cutting off water, electricity, internet and food to an important city.

Don’t you want to play Destiny Awakening?

Don't you want to play the Industrial Revolution?

Come on, let’s play together.

At this time, in the direction of the Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace, there was also an angry aura rising, but it was still very weak. It was that thing, the one that disguised itself as Destiny. It finally stopped pretending and knew it couldn't pretend any longer.

Because Zhao Guanshan actually put the bag of ash it left behind into the center of the reactor of the seventh-level spirit supply tower. It has its special means in it, and its perception is connected to it.

As a result, under the impact of high-pressure spiritual energy, not only was it reduced to ashes in an instant, but it was also severely damaged.

Well, it was already badly injured, and now it is even more injured.

At this moment, Wu Jin, Wu Yuan and others were astonished to see a scene that shocked them extremely. The illuminated Linjiang Prefecture Taoist Palace was suspected to be wrapped and shrouded by an extremely huge shadow evil god.

Is this the so-called awakened destiny?
Although the evil god's body disappeared the next second, as if it were an illusion, they all felt as if they were falling into an icy cave.

I feel like my entire world view, outlook on life, and outlook on spiritual practice have collapsed.
