"Two days are enough for me to complete the preparations!"
After pondering for a moment, Tian Beixi showed a gentle smile to Ji Sihan: "Manager Ji, the information you provided is very useful. During this time, you can just stay here as a guest."
Ji Sihan was keenly aware of the strangeness in Tian Beixi's tone.
He subconsciously took two steps back and said with a vigilant look on his face: "Tian Fairy, I am a fugitive who has come to the remote island to seek refuge. According to the rules of the remote island, you should have no right to interfere with my actions!"
"The rules of the outlying island?" Tian Beixi's lips raised a sarcastic smile, as if he was very disdainful of Ji Sihan's statement, "When I defeat the Haiya Fleet, my rules will be the rules of the outlying island!"
Ji Sihan realized that the situation was not good, swallowed his saliva and said, "Even so, what's the benefit of detaining me?"
Tian Beixi smiled softly, as if Ji Sihan asked a very naive question: "Isn't the five hundred thousand spirit stone coins you brought to the island a benefit? I know you may not carry this huge sum of money with you, but since you
While you are here, am I still worried that the spirit stone coins you are carrying will run away on their own?"
Unlike the Zhongzhou reinforcements who directly led their troops to kill the island, Tian Beixi landed on Guhong Island alone. Except for a few personal servants, she was surrounded by indigenous soldiers from Guhong Island.
However, due to Tian Beixi's amazing skills, these indigenous soldiers have long regarded her as a god.
Just as Ji Sihan was about to run away, he was firmly held down by the Guhong Island soldiers who wanted to show off in front of Fairy Tian.
Ji Sihan immediately protested: "Fairy Tian, as the saying goes, the right people will get more help, but the wrong people will get less help! The outlying island is a country established by mortal fugitives. For a mere five hundred thousand yuan of spiritual stone coins, you brazenly broke the thousands of years of history on the outlying island.
Who else is willing to serve you in the future? If you lose the hearts of the people on the outlying island, even if you are a Golden Core monk, you will never be able to rule the outlying island!"
However, this persuasion was completely ineffective.
Tian Beixi leaned down and said expressionlessly: "No need to worry, Manager Ji. I, Tian Beixi, rule the outlying islands neither by the support of the people nor by the methods of the immortal family!"
Neither rely on the support of the people nor the methods of the immortal family?
Then why do you rule the outlying islands?
Is it good just because you have a pretty face and a good figure?
Then Li Qingning has a better face and figure than you. Wouldn’t the Qingning Chamber of Commerce still be messed up by her?
Ji Sihan originally thought that even if Tian Beixi was unwilling to accept him, he would let him go like Xu Tong, the owner of Yanbo Island, but he didn't expect that this woman didn't follow the rules at all and actually deducted herself for 500,000 spirit stone coins.
Down!
This is the biggest taboo on outlying islands!
Seeing dissatisfaction written all over Ji Sihan's face, Tian Beixi didn't pay too much attention. She ordered her subordinates to handcuff Ji Sihan tightly, and then explained slowly: "Manager Ji, you are also smart for a lifetime, but you are confused for a moment. There are only unspoken rules.
It can be used to restrain ordinary people. Since I was able to defeat the 100,000-strong coalition of the lords of the outlying islands with my strength in the early stage of Qi refining, I obviously used extraordinary means. Under such circumstances, you actually want to use unspoken rules to restrain me. Is this true?
Isn’t it ridiculous?”
Ji Sihan wanted to refute, but he opened his mouth, but no words came out. The prerequisite for the unspoken rules to take effect is that none of the participants has the ability to break the rules of the game, or that the cost of breaking the rules exceeds the benefits.
Since Tian Beixi was able to conquer half of the outlying island within two months, it was obvious that she was no longer restricted by the rules of the outlying island game. Naturally, she would not care about the price of breaking the rules of the game!
"Is that legend true? You have a spell that can be activated without spiritual energy?"
Tian Beixi did not answer the question directly, but opened the curtains of his luxurious marching tent: "It's a coincidence that you came here. I happen to be experimenting with methods to defeat the Haiya Fleet, which can open your eyes!"
Before Ji Sihan could answer, Tian Beixi squinted and looked into the distance and said, "They should be almost ready..."
Before he finished speaking, Ji Sihan saw a sudden flash of fire on a hilltop a few hundred meters away from the camp.
Immediately afterwards, the dull explosion shook the ground and shook it. Not only were many Guhong Island soldiers who were close to watch the excitement were dizzy and their internal organs were rumbling, but even Ji Sihan, who was seven or eight hundred meters away, had his ears buzzing from the shock.
Call.
Along with the fire and explosion, a large amount of soil, stones and wood chips flew around. It seemed that an entire layer of land was lifted up to a height of seven or eight meters, and then fell down again, followed by thick smoke and dust that completely enveloped the place where the explosion occurred.
, even though Ji Sihan tried his best to see clearly what happened, he still didn't see anything.
"This... what kind of spell is this!"
Even though his ears were still ringing, Ji Sihan was still shocked by the explosion in front of him.
When the sound of the explosion just came, Tian Beixi's body-protecting energy was automatically activated. With only a trace of spiritual energy, she successfully offset the damage to her hearing caused by the huge explosion.
"This is my spell, inherited from Governor Lu Yang 500 years ago!" Tian Beixi's voice was not loud. He was talking to himself rather than explaining to Ji Sihan, "Although the ratio of materials is no longer the same.
There is room for improvement, but after changing the burial depth, the power of the explosion can indeed be further improved. If a battle breaks out on the preset battlefield, no matter how many mortal soldiers come, they will only die. If saltpeter and saltpeter are not transported from Huoyun State,
The cost of sulfur is too high, and sea control is still out of control, so the battle on the outlying islands may have ended long ago..."
Tian Beixi's voice was very soft, and Ji Sihan, whose hearing had not fully recovered, could only hear a few words such as "sulfur".
As the smoke from the explosion gradually spread, Ji Sihan did smell a strong smell of sulfur in the air. However, there had never been any scientific research in the world of cultivation, and even Ji Sihan could not understand what was happening in front of him.
Seeing the confused look on Ji Sihan's face, Tian Beixi didn't bother to explain. Because this magical spell invented by President Lu Yang himself is black gunpowder from the earth!
As an old subordinate of Governor Lu Yang, Tian Daxiao has collected many autographed manuscripts left by Governor Lu Yang. Tian Beixi's method of making gunpowder originated from a work note of Governor Lu in his early years.
According to Mr. Lu’s notes, he originally wanted to experiment with an overseas secret technique called “science and technology.” However, he soon discovered that the cost-effectiveness of this “science and technology” was far inferior to that of cultivation and immortality, so he quickly gave up.
An attempt at in-depth research.
Despite this, he still left behind many mysterious formulas that are difficult to understand, such as "monitrate, disulfide, and charcoal."
Tian Beixi believed that the overseas secret techniques that could be taken seriously by legendary figures like Governor Lu Yang could never be ordinary commodities, so he followed these mysterious formulas and studied them in depth.
Since sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal are all common materials, Tian Beixi found and mixed these materials together like he was setting up a fairy formation, and then accidentally discovered the secret of black gunpowder.
But as President Lu Yang himself said, this kind of primitive black powder is not only extremely expensive to make, but is also not as powerful as a spell that causes body penetration. It requires the enemy to stand still as a target in order to cause effective damage. It is useless no matter how you look at it.
However, Tian Beixi did not give up because of this, but felt that he failed to understand the essence of Lu Xingchang's thoughts.
After repeated improvements, Tian Beixi finally figured out the best raw material ratio of black gunpowder when the purity of saltpeter was insufficient, and barely increased the power of black gunpowder to the level of a mid-stage Qi refining spell.
And after thinking hard, she also found a suitable application place for black gunpowder - an outlying island!
The west coast of the outlying island strait was the preset battlefield she prepared for the next battle. Before Ji Sihan was captured, Tian Beixi was experimenting with the most suitable burial depth of black powder under the local soil environment.
Seeing the super destructive power caused by the explosion and Ji Sihan's dumbfounded expression, Tian Beixi was full of confidence.
This time she will definitely make it impossible for the Zhongzhou reinforcements to come back!
