20demayo Chapter 141: Sword of the King
Chapter 141: Sword of the King
In the following half month, the days were exceptionally peaceful, as if nothing had happened.
Xihai City and the Monster Mountain Range have returned to their former peaceful state.
The cities that were destroyed in the previous beast tide have also begun to be rebuilt one after another, and Xihai City has sent a group of foundation-building monks to serve as city lords.
As for the low-level monks and ordinary people who died in that conflict, no one mentioned them again, as if they had never existed in this world.
Baiyun City has also been rebuilt and restored to its former appearance.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Wang Bin stood there, looking at Huang Youcai in front of him.
“Youcai, the Monster Mountain Range is now stable.
It's time for you to reach the Foundation Establishment stage. I guess you should have prepared for this already, right?"
Wang Bin's voice is very steady, making people feel at ease when listening to it.
Huang Youcai raised his head, his eyes full of excitement, and nodded vigorously.
“Youcai, now the Monster Mountain Range is also peaceful.
It's time for you to break through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, and you should be prepared.
I'll give you two copies of your experience in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, one is mine and the other is from Du Xiaoyue's aunt.
I have also prepared for you a foundation-building pill, ten drops of spiritual liquid, two meridian-protecting pills, two spirit-nourishing pills, and two rejuvenation pills.
Go to Foundation Establishment Training Room No. 3 and break through! Don't worry about failure.
Keep going with all your strength and forge ahead courageously.
Even if you fail this time, it’s okay. Just take a few months off and then make a breakthrough.
I will give you enough healing pills and foundation-building pills. I will give you ten chances. If you still can't break through, you won't have time. Remember to write down your breakthrough experience after you successfully build your foundation.
Give me a copy, and you can keep it for your son!"
Wang Bin placed these things in front of Huang Youcai one by one.
Huang Youcai's hands began to tremble unconsciously as he looked at these things. He knew in his heart that these things added together were worth at least two or three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones. He had never earned so many spirit stones in his eighty years of life.
He carefully put away his things, and only then did he remember that there was something else.
"City Lord, Chen Jun arrived in Baiyun City yesterday and is now staying at my house. Do you want to meet him?"
Huang Youcai asked tentatively.
"Well, just ask him to come find me. Don't worry about what happens next, just concentrate on preparing for a breakthrough in foundation building." Wang Bin said calmly.
"Yes, I'll go call him right away, then go home and explain everything, and then I'll go into seclusion right away!"
Huang Youcai quickly responded and left in a hurry.
A few minutes later, Chen Jun arrived. After not seeing him for ten years, Chen Jun had changed so much that Wang Bin would not have recognized him if his aura had not changed.
Ten years ago, although Chen Jun was seventy years old, because he was a monk, he looked like he was forty years old and was full of energy.
But looking at him now, he is just an old man. Although he has been cleaned up, he has no energy at all.
Chen Jun looked at the city lord, whose aura was even stronger, hesitated slightly, and then bowed and said
"Your subordinate Chen Jun greets the City Lord!"
"Yes! I know you failed to break through the foundation building. Come over here and let me take a look at the situation."
"Yes!"
Wang Bin checked Chen Jun's physical condition. Two of his meridians must have been ruptured, and his sea of consciousness was also somewhat damaged. No wonder his energy and spirit had dropped so much.
"Your situation isn't a big problem. You only need two rejuvenation pills and two nourishing spirit pills, and six months of recuperation before you can reach the foundation-building stage again.
I have rejuvenation pills and foundation-building pills here. Youcai should have told you that many families actually have these things.
Now that you are here, you should know what to do!"
Chen Jun looked at the Foundation Establishment Pill in Wang Bin's hand, his eyes revealing endless desire.
This time, I broke through and was just a little bit away from successfully building my foundation.
At that time, if he had prepared one more pulse-protecting pill and one spirit-nourishing pill, he might have been able to successfully establish his foundation.
Although he knew this situation now, and wanted to make another attempt to establish his foundation, it was impossible for him to gather enough spirit stones for a foundation-building pill.
He didn't even have the spirit stones to buy rejuvenation pills and nourishing pills to recover from his injuries.
Without saying anything, Chen Jun knelt down and raised his hands to swear:
"I, Chen Jun, swear allegiance to the City Lord today, under the witness of Heaven and Earth. If I disobey the Lord's orders, I will be struck by lightning, my soul shattered, my dantian shattered, my spiritual roots withered, and all my cultivation wasted."
Wang Bin looked at Chen Jun kneeling on the ground and sighed in his heart.
This was the first time he saw Chen Jun kneeling, alas!
I hope that this day won’t come to me.
"Alright, remember the oath you swore, and let's see how you perform in the future!
You have been with me for decades, and I know you inside and out, which is why I am helping you.
Here are two rejuvenation pills, two spirit-nourishing pills, three drops of spiritual liquid, and ten thousand low-grade spirit stones.
You can use it to recover first and take over the patrol work in Baiyun City. Youcai needs to go into seclusion to break through the foundation building during this period. Don't let me down."
"Yes, I promise to complete the task!"
Chen Jun took everything with trembling hands, his gratitude to the city lord beyond words.
It was only in recent years that he truly felt the warmth and coldness of human nature. Everything in the sect was governed by rules, and only the City Lord and Huang Youcai were his true friends.
In the following days, Wang Bin trained his body and practiced the Star Visualization Technique, and spent the rest of his time improving his "sea urchin" thunder beads and researching "batteries".
Batteries are easy to say but difficult to make. After researching for a while without any results, I gave up temporarily.
However, the Leishazhu has been almost transformed.
He created a larger version of the pistol, with a barrel as big as a fist.
The bullet is composed of two thunder beads, and the bullet is also made into a cylinder, with an ordinary thunder bead installed behind the cylinder.
The thrust generated by the explosion of this Thunder Bead pushed the Thunder Bead in front of it to shoot out at high speed.
The thunder bead in front is the "sea urchin" thunder bead, but only the front is decorated with obsidian spikes.
After Wang Bin pressed the switch, the firing pin hit the first thunder bead, and the thunder bead exploded in the barrel. The high-pressure gas accumulated inside pushed the front thunder bead forward along the barrel at high speed.
In fact, the primer and propellant of the bullet are replaced with a small thunder bead. After all, the gunpowder here is not powerful enough.
Although this improved version of the Leishazhu gun does not look like a gun or a cannon, it is very fast.
The firing barrel alone is already a second-level top-level spiritual weapon. If the material is poor, it will easily explode.
Looking at the powerful weapon in his hand, Wang Bin was extremely excited. He finally had some power to protect himself.
In fact, this weapon can only be regarded as a combined second-level spiritual weapon.
It is composed of a second-level refining weapon barrel, an ordinary thunder bead, and a "sea urchin" thunder bead.
Under normal circumstances, it can kill a foundation-building cultivator with one shot.
However, the obsidian installed in front of the bullet head makes it possible to kill Jindan monks.
Moreover, he can refine the two thunder beads that make up the bullets and control the timing of their explosion with his spiritual sense.
The mechanism on this gun can also confuse the enemy.
Wang Bin gave this gun a cool name, calling it the Sword of the King, which is both deceptive and imposing.
I was originally planning to name it Wang’s Made. Isn’t there a Hanyang Made?
But in the end, the Sword of Kings is more imposing.
