This place is fun

Chapter 132 Fierce Flame
Looking at the smokeless gunpowder in front of him, Su Daoshan couldn't help but be happy.

In fact, from the time he first came up with the idea to the time he actually started implementing it, he had always had a worry - this was a different world after all.

If this world can have powerful martial arts and strange skills that completely violate the laws of physics, then isn't it normal for the world to be different from the original world in terms of underlying elements and rules?

Until now, a big stone in the bottom of my heart finally fell to the ground. And for some reason, Su Daoshan suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. It was as if this strange world suddenly became more familiar and more intimate.

But soon, Su Daoshan shook his head, put aside his distracting thoughts, and focused on the current plan.

In the past, after the invention of gunpowder, humans were still in the era of cold weapon warfare for a long time until the emergence of black gunpowder.

However, black powder produces a lot of smoke and leaves a lot of residue, so it is difficult to meet the requirements of modern warfare in terms of firing speed and distance. Therefore, that period of history is a period when artillery, muskets and cold weapons intertwined.

It was not until the emergence of smokeless gunpowder that firearms became the mainstay of warfare, sending cold weapons to history museums.

It is no exaggeration to say that the emergence of smokeless gunpowder is like a boundary that divides history into the era of cold weapons and the era of hot weapons. In the world of the former, whoever masters the latter means mastering the ability to strike at a reduced dimension.

The same is true for Su Daoshan who is in this world.

"The combat power of the Spirit Realm depends on the Dao Seed and the Battle Spirit. Although my Dao Seed has the twelfth grade, this advantage is only a relative advantage at present. In terms of absolute strength, those extraordinary warriors who have entered the Spirit Realm for decades and have reached the Earth Realm, Heaven Realm, and even the Dao Realm are definitely not comparable to a newcomer like me."

"So, the reason why I am stronger than others and have my own unique differentiation is because of my battle spirit."

"From a certain perspective, battle spirits are actually like battle pets. In the real world, people capture exotic animals and train them to serve as battle pets. Well, the Fushan beast used by Chongguang City this time is one of them. However, the ability of a battle pet depends on its own talent and awakening. In the spiritual world, the ability of a battle spirit must be improved by refining the heart furnace."

"Because of this, the same kind of war spirit transformed from a spirit beast will eventually develop different characteristics in the hands of different people. Whether it is powerful or not depends entirely on the different perceptions of people."

"And the knowledge that transcends time is the most difficult threshold for warriors in this world to cross, but it is also my greatest weapon!"

Su Daoshan stared at the smokeless gunpowder in front of him and felt his heart beating faster and he could not calm down.

It's exciting, but also a bit lonely.

Only he knew that this was the crystallization of civilization from another world. Only he knew how significant the emergence of this thing was. But he looked around and could not find anyone to share this joy with!

"If I can't share the joy, then I can only share the firepower!" Su Daoshan thought, with a smile on his face. He decided to speed up. In one go, he visualized the Gatling gun.

Compared with the epoch-making product of smokeless gunpowder, the visualization of firearms is much simpler.

As early as the time when he first visited the market in Yishan City, Su Daoshan discovered that this world had reached a very high level of attainment in metal because of the warriors.

After all, the hammers swung by ancient blacksmiths in the previous life were only 10 to 20 kilograms. In this world, a blacksmith who has reached the ninth rank can easily swing a hammer weighing hundreds of kilograms. He can even use a hinge to raise a giant forging hammer weighing thousands of kilograms to hammer and shape metal products. The effect is not much different from the hydraulic forging hammer in the previous life.

In addition, the fighting between warriors requires very high strength of weapons. In the face of a force of thousands of kilograms, ordinary swords are as fragile as rotten wood. Therefore, the smelting and forging technology must be developed.

Demand is the driving force of progress.

Su Daoshan even heard that due to the existence of some materials and forging methods that were different from the rules of his previous life, some of the metals here had metal properties that he had never heard of in his previous life.

With such a foundation, it would be almost no difficulty for Su Daoshan to visualize metals with properties similar to chromium-molybdenum alloys or some special types of stainless steel.

More importantly, because visualization can directly make the material reach the desired temperature, angle and shape without the need for tools such as lathes, after refining smokeless gunpowder, making a Gatling gun and the corresponding bullets has become a simpler matter.

The only thing that made Su Daoshan feel painful was the consumption of his spiritual energy.

It was not until he finished refining the smokeless gunpowder that he realized that the original eight thousand spiritual essences were now only five thousand! A full three thousand spiritual essences were consumed while he was constantly replenishing the heart furnace and refining one batch of materials after another.

And if you want to refine a Gatling gun, consumption is also essential. After all, even if the processes such as forging, shaping, and cutting can be completed directly, if placed in the real world, these processes will take time, so in the spiritual realm, it will not be less.

If you have enough time, you can put it aside and let it slowly take shape. But if you want to skip time directly, you can only use spiritual essence to smash it.

“Smash!”

Su Daoshan gritted his teeth and quickly immersed himself in the visualization of refining the Gatling gun.

Hundreds of spiritual essences were poured into the heart furnace, transforming into strands of spiritual energy. And these spiritual energies, along with the visualization, continuously gathered into vortices, and then condensed...

An hour passed quickly.

Finally, a Gatling gun was fully materialized in the void of the heart furnace. It was completely black, and the six barrels arranged in a ring looked hideous.

Su Daoshan rubbed his hands excitedly, and couldn't wait to use his spiritual power to take out the Gatling gun and the bullets from his heart furnace space, and then merge them into the Dao Seed.

As the Gatling gun was integrated, the 17-meter-tall Dao Seed suddenly transformed into a black tree in space. Then, its aerial roots began to change. Originally just a wooden structure, it began to shrink as it was given metal properties, becoming tight, solid, and full of metal texture. Immediately, the inside of the tree root became hollow and turned into a gun barrel.

At the same time, the branches and trunks of the trees also changed.

The branch where the gun barrel was located began to swell and formed the gun body. Inside were the bolt mechanism and the gears that rotated the gun barrel. The densely packed fruits on the trunk changed from lychee-like shapes to strips like bullet chains, and the seeds became bullet-shaped.

Because after the war spirit is integrated into the items refined by the heart furnace, it only possesses the characteristics of the items and will not become exactly the same as the items. Therefore, when a tree-based Gatling gun appeared in front of Su Daoshan, except for the barrel with six tree roots entangled together, the appearance was very different from the original Gatling gun.

In addition, Xiao Hei is still a juvenile spirit monster, with only forty aerial roots. Therefore, after retaining enough tree roots for whipping, entanglement and other combat methods, it can only transform into two Gatling guns.

However, that hideous and terrifying feeling still came to me!

Su Daoshan looked at the Dao Seed Space in fascination. In the space, the black tree stood like a black and red giant on the ground. On its crown, every leaf was dancing with flames, like a raging fire rushing straight into the sky. Its trunk has now become much thicker as the Dao Seed's combat power has increased. With the thick aerial roots rooted in the ground, one tree is a forest.

Above the black tree, two particularly thick branches spread out to the left and right like the arms of a mecha. Dense vines were entwined on the branches. They looked like the pipelines on a mechanical arm. At the end of each branch was a bulge like a huge fist. In front of this bulge were six gun barrels.

When the crown of the black tree swayed in the wind, the two thick branches also rose and fell. But no matter how the branches rose and fell, the two Gatling guns at the end remained stable, and the barrels did not move, as if they were frozen in the void.

"Fire!" Su Daoshan gave the order with his mind.

The next second, the two Gatling guns with twelve barrels began to spin at high speed. The bullets transformed from banyan tree seeds formed two straight chains, pouring out at a speed of thousands of rounds per minute.

Because it was just a simulation in the Dao Seed Space, there was no actual damage evaluation, but from Su Daoshan's perspective, this kind of power was enough to tear apart the 11-meter-strong war spirits he had seen before. If it swept across a warrior's body, no one would be able to withstand it.

But what Su Daoshan regretted was that because it was only a juvenile spirit monster, Xiao Hei didn't produce many fruits. According to the calculation that there were one to three seeds in one fruit, the two Gatling guns could only sweep for no more than thirty seconds. And after the sweep, Xiao Hei's breath was obviously weakened. His spiritual power was exhausted. He had to return to the Dao Seed Space to recuperate or replenish his spiritual essence before he could continue to fight in other ways.

Of course, this is enough for the current situation.

It was hard for Su Daoshan to imagine that, except for those powerful war spirits with combat power of dozens of meters, who else in a place like the outer domain could withstand the thirty-second sweep of two Gatling guns!
He couldn't wait to find someone to share the "joy" of firing thousands of rounds per minute.

But before that... Su Daoshan looked at his spiritual essence: "After refining the Gatling gun, I still have a little over a thousand spiritual essences left. The Gatling gun is my trump card, and the bullets are limited, so I can't use it easily. I might as well just put these spiritual essences into it and refine another means of attack..."

And the goal of this refining is also ready-made.

Bow and arrow!

However, the bow and arrow refined by Su Daoshan was not the ordinary traditional bow refined by Ma San, but a pulley bow. Compared with the traditional bow, the pulley bow consumed less battle spirits, but had higher kinetic energy conversion efficiency, longer range, and higher accuracy.

Anyway, I have already spent almost seven thousand of the eight thousand spiritual energy, so I don’t care about this anymore.

Once Su Daoshan made a decision, he immediately started to execute it without hesitation. It wouldn't take long anyway. One thousand spiritual essences would be enough to smash out a pulley bow!

******
Outside the school, Gao Jiao and others were still waiting.

Hour after hour passed, and they themselves did not count how long they had been waiting. Anyway, they drank cup after cup of tea. Niu Er was also sensible, and asked Hua Lingyun to ask the village spirit demon cook to make some snacks.

Because it is the soul that enters, the warriors' bodies will not feel hunger or thirst. However, the environment of the spiritual realm still has an impact on the soul. The soul can sense heat and cold. If it is extreme weather, or some poisonous gas or miasma in the spiritual realm, it can also cause damage to the soul and the body that embodies the will of the spiritual realm.

The food in the spiritual realm can have a certain nourishing effect on the soul.

However, except for some powerful people in reality, most warriors will automatically refuse some overly delicious food. Once in the spiritual realm, the soul will leave the mark of these foods, and when returning to the cruel reality, it will be really hard to swallow.

In the real world, even the children of noble families and disciples of sects usually have very simple food. Apart from spiritual millet, the other food is just a little bit oily compared to ordinary people, which is enough to fill their stomachs.

Just have some fruit and a few pieces of mung bean cake and it will be a treat.

And during this period of waiting, not nothing happened... In fact, quite a lot happened.

First, two members of the Huangzhulin tribe tried to enter the spiritual realm. However, before they could fully materialize in the spiritual realm, they were rushed forward by Ma San and his companions who were guarding outside and sent out by their war spirits.

Secondly, there were a few independent cultivators who were also involved in this battle, half of whom left.

After being dragged into the battle by Su Daoshan, these scattered cultivators had different thoughts. Some were uneasy, some were panicking, and some were just determined to join the group. They stayed behind to get a conclusion - what exactly the four tribes were thinking, whether to join, or to go to Huang Zhulin to explain, or even just run away, after all, they wanted to see what was going on.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for several hours, there was no movement here. On the contrary, there was a piece of news from Xianlai Town.

Huang Zhulin is actually related to Buchi, and now he has asked Buchi for help!
When they heard the news, not only did most of the independent cultivators leave immediately, but even Gao Jiao, Zi Yu and Lang Yan could no longer sit still.

The world outside the domain is huge, and no one can count how many people there are, let alone know them all. Generally speaking, everyone's social circle is limited to the area where they are located, and at most some famous warriors in the adjacent areas.

The area where Buchi used to live was not very close to Xianlai Town, as there were two towns between them. But this name was well-known not only in Xianlai Town, but also in several nearby towns!
There are so many rumors about his rise and deeds that it is difficult to give a clear and simple summary. But when people talk about him, in addition to all kinds of gossip, they usually mention two things.

First, Buchi was at least a seventh-level warrior. In the second year of entering the spiritual realm, he had already reached a combat power of 14 meters. Since then, he has swept across the area, conquered at least four tribes, and even reached out to another neighboring town. As a result, this town gathered all the tribes and resisted with all their strength, and finally ended the war at the cost of a large amount of spiritual essence.

Second, Buchi was not alone. Back then, more than 30 warriors gathered around him. Seventeen of them were said to have talents above the fourth rank. Their fighting power was very strong. And half a year ago, Buchi, with the strength of only the first level of Tiandao Mountain and a fighting power of 15 meters, led these seventeen people into the fifth spiritual realm.

The most important thing is that they actually gained a foothold in the Fifth Spirit Realm!

For warriors outside the domain, it is simply another level of existence. Everyone estimates that Buchi’s current combat power has reached at least 17 meters!

Such a person is actually a strong ally of the Huangzhulin tribe. How can everyone sit still?
But Gao Jiao and others have waited until now.

The reason was simple - the visions that appeared again and again made them reluctant to leave. Even with Buchi's reputation for being fierce, they could only stand back in front of this vision. No matter what, they had to wait until they could not reach an agreement before making a decision.

In the silence, suddenly, everyone's eyes moved and they all stood up.

The door of the school was pushed open.

A figure shrouded in mist walked out.

Because the fog only obscured his appearance but not his body shape, everyone knew that the man who couldn't reach an agreement was a man of medium height and a thin body. Since he was a newcomer, his age should not be too old. Before, whether it was spiritual detection or visual observation, everyone felt that there was nothing special.

But at this moment, when they saw this person again, for some reason, everyone suddenly felt a sense of suffocation.

It was like he was wrapped in a fierce flame and coming towards us!
