Chapter 581: The Sound of the VoidRaising an army...

This problem can be easily solved by affiliating with an existing cultivation country.

Ning Zhuo wanted to start from scratch and build an army, which would be very costly. He had to solve the problems of military status, military discipline, military power, military system and military morale by himself.

"Even if we go through a lot of trouble to build an army, the cost of maintaining it will still be huge."

“For me, it doesn’t apply.”

"So the better choice is to focus on elite puppets, such as Yuan Dasheng and Meng Yehu."

The Heavy-Armored Blood Ape Dasheng was already clearly lagging behind.

The main purpose of designing this mechanical war puppet was actually to help Ning Zhuo practice the magic blood-stained tendon technique. The reason why it had such outstanding defense was that Ning Zhuo spared no expense, borrowed strength from many sources, and used a large number of precious materials to build it.

In terms of design, it can only be considered lower-middle level.

In the battlefields of the two countries, the heavily armored Blood Ape Dasheng was reduced to a meat target, barely able to attract firepower. Almost every time he appeared in battle, he ended up being scrapped, and could be described as a high-level cannon fodder.

There is no way. In a war of this level, even the material of the Heavy-Armored Blood Ape Dasheng appears weak.

As for the Shadow Blade·Night Tiger, it had made many achievements in battle. After all, its design was much better than that of the Heavy Armored Blood Ape·Great Victory.

His different positioning also made it easier for him to achieve military merit.

But its shortcoming is that its material is not good enough.

"I need to redesign the mechanical body for Yuan Dasheng. This time I have to think carefully and strive to make the design reach a top level."

"The design of Meng Yehu can be retained. Taking advantage of this opportunity of scrapping and overhauling, we can replace it with better materials for construction."

Ning Zhuo's plan for Yuan Dasheng and Meng Yehu was quickly finalized.

Although he had saved a lot of his military exploits and had not exchanged them, he still had a lot of precious materials in his hands.

The reason is the heavenly ghost.

Filled with Buddhist thoughts, the celestial ghost took the initiative to give almost all of his wealth to Ning Zhuo.

This powerful ghost cultivator has long been famous among the nations and has a very rich fortune.

Even though the main materials are related to ghost ways and soul cultivation, there are still quite a few conventional precious materials that have reached the Nascent Soul level and can be used on Yuan Dasheng and Meng Yehu.

However, even though the plan had been made, Ning Zhuo still took the lead in repairing the Heavy Armored Blood Ape·Dasheng and Shadow Blade·Night Tiger to their original appearance.

Relying on the Yuanying-level mechanical pedestal, even if these two robots are scrapped, they can still be quickly rebuilt.

After experiencing the war between the two countries, Ning Zhuo has changed a lot, especially in terms of being prepared for danger in times of peace.

He would rather spend a little more money to repair Yuan Dasheng and Meng Yehu as soon as possible to ensure his own combat effectiveness.

Who knows if an accident will happen in the next moment, and whether this accident will be fatal?After repairing these two war dolls, Ning Zhuo now had two more Jindan-level combat forces by his side, and he felt much more at ease.

As for those ordinary mechanical dolls, Ning Zhuo did not make them.

His military post should be abolished soon, and the organization of the military itself would also be cancelled.

In this situation, if he put out so many mechanical puppets, it would be like a beastmaster summoning a large number of demon pets.

Ning Zhuo's military strategy of reviving brave warriors is unlikely to be effective.

Therefore, even if these mechanical dolls are used as cannon fodder, they are extremely cost-effective.

"Next, it won't be a large-scale war."

"When I face conflicts, they are mainly strong individuals. These mechanical puppets are too ordinary. If they are released, they will be easily killed by strong people and use decapitation tactics against me."

"Apart from involving my spiritual consciousness and controlling these puppets, they have almost no offensive capabilities."

Ning Zhuo was pragmatic and flexible. He immediately adjusted the general direction of the production of the mechanism, from the previous scale and quantity to the production of elite individuals, in order to achieve higher standards in quality.

Ning Zhuo will focus next on the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor.

This magical-level mechanical armor performed amazingly in the great battle—Ning Zhuo used it to fight Xiang Yue many times.

The upper body of the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor is already covered with scars and cracks, and needs careful repairs.

"If I rely on my own abilities alone, I won't be able to repair the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor. Fortunately, I have the mechanical pedestal."

Ning Zhuo's own cultivation is too weak, he is only at the Foundation Establishment stage. It is difficult for him to do anything with this little magic power on a treasure of the Nascent Soul level.

The mechanical pedestal allowed him to reach a level beyond his own capabilities.

This is the hundred arts of cultivation!Today, the entire world of cultivation is prosperous, and the sophistication of the hundreds of arts of cultivation allows cultivators to transcend their levels of cultivation and schools of thought, and achieve things that they cannot do on their own.

"Repairing the upper body of the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor should be no problem."

"But its lower body needs better completion!"

The lower half of the current Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor is just a crudely made prototype.

It's also just good luck.

This weakness had not been discovered in the previous war. Most of the monks were caught up in their own melee and were unable to take care of themselves.

Ning Zhuo chose a very good time to join the battlefield and never triggered too much targeting.

After he joined forces with Mulan, Liu, Guan and Zhang, he was in a local dominant position for a long time.

The mechanical dragon shuttled through the void.

"What's that sound?" Sun Lingtong was suddenly shocked and hurriedly contacted Ning Zhuo.

Ning Zhuo was buried in the mechanism pedestal, carefully repairing the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor. He immediately looked up after receiving the message.

After listening carefully, the big-headed boy showed a puzzled expression: "I didn't hear anything."

Sun Lingtong exclaimed, "You didn't hear it? Weird! Wanli Youlong didn't detect anything either. But I did hear a roar, and it sounded like the sound of the tide."

"This sound keeps ringing and is getting louder. Can you really not hear it?"

Ning Zhuo subconsciously touched the mechanical ring on his finger, but there was no reaction at all.

But Ning Zhuo was not careless, and frowned slightly: "Boss, we only have a partial understanding of the void. My mechanical ring is just an inherited talent."

"To be safe, let's go back to the world of the living first."

"We are not in a rush, and there is no need to take the risk."

Sun Lingtong nodded: "That's right, Xiaozhuo, let's sneak out first."

Thus, Wanli Youlong escaped from the void and returned to the world.

In the present world, it is morning time.

A light snow had just stopped.

The uninhabited mountains were covered with a layer of elegant white gauze. The peaks in the distance were covered with silver, with clear outlines, as if they were a beautiful painting frozen in time, quiet and profound.

The pine trees were tall and straight, with icicles hanging from their branches. The sun shone through the clouds, casting dappled shadows on the trees.

The surroundings are quiet, with the occasional sound of birds chirping, echoing in the empty valley like flowing clear sounds, highlighting the silence of winter.

Sun Ning and the other man looked at each other after seeing the beautiful scenery, and then left Wanli Youlong and came to the outside world. Although the interior space of Wanli Youlong was not cramped, it was a closed space after all, and staying in it for a long time would indeed make people feel suffocated.

When the two brothers came out, they took a deep breath at the same time and felt refreshed.

"According to the route we are taking, this should be the border of Beifeng Country." Sun Lingtong said.

Ning Zhuo nodded: "It should be."

Wanli Youlong was born in Lava Fairy Palace, and there is no record of its travels. Although Ning Zhuo has been paying attention to collecting maps during his time in the two countries, the maps on hand and the actual situation often have a way out.

The more detailed the map, the higher its value and the less it circulates on the market.

Moreover, Liangzhu Country and Beifeng Country are two cultivation countries. In addition, Sun Ning and the others have been escaping into the void, so they have much less reference to the real world.

Therefore, they could only rely on climate and topography to preliminarily estimate their location.

The main reason for this embarrassment was that they had just started to travel around the world. When they had been to more places, they would have accurate records in the Wanli Youlong and would be able to calculate the locations of many unfamiliar places.

"Northern Wind Country..." Sun Lingtong said as he looked out at the snowy peaks, "Xiaozhuo, your Ning family originated from this country."

Ning Zhuo nodded: "This is our hometown. Many elders in the family often cherish and recall their lives in Beifeng Country."

"But for me, I was born during the migration and lived in Huoshixian City. I can't empathize with their homesickness."

"Speaking of which, we have been traveling for several months."

"But I feel like we just left Huoshi Xiancheng yesterday." Ning Zhuo sighed.

This snow scene actually aroused a little bit of his homesickness for Huoshixian City.

The two of them did not stay here for long. Two hours later, they set off again and flew into the void on the Wanli Wandering Dragon.

"There is no sound." Sun Lingtong listened carefully and gradually relaxed. "Maybe this is just my hallucination."

Ning Zhuo frowned slightly and shook his head: "Boss, don't forget that you are the one who absorbed the marrow of the Void Evil God. The reason you can hear sounds that I can't is probably because of this."

"In short, be careful about everything."

Sun Lingtong nodded: "Yes! If there is any sound next, I will not notify you in advance, and will immediately control Wanli Youlong and return to the present world."

"Okay." Ning Zhuo nodded, and the two reached an agreement.

After this incident, the division of labor between Sun Ning and the other person changed again.

Before, the two of them divided their time equally, one to take care of it and the other to practice.

Now Sun Lingtong is mainly in charge of the Dragon Head Cabin, while Ning Zhuo is mainly engaged in his own practice.

The new bodies of Yuan Dasheng and Meng Yehu are still under consideration, but the upper body of the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor has been repaired.

Before, when he was in Liangzhu Country, he mainly used the fetal breathing spirit boat to increase the foundation of his physical body. Now, Ning Zhuo's focus of practice has changed to the three sects' upper methods.

With the help of the Three-Yuan Interchange Treasure Talisman, the precious medicine in Ning Zhuo's three dantians grew at an extremely fast speed.

"At this rate, the precious medicine's growth phase will soon come to an end."

"After this stage, I will enter the middle stage of foundation building."

Ning Zhuo estimated the progress, his heart calm.

There was no qualitative change in the early, middle and late stages of foundation building, so Ning Zhuo himself did not have much expectations.

But the theme of spiritual practice is accumulation over time. Without small steps, one cannot reach a thousand miles.

Without the hard work and accumulation in the early, middle and late stages, how can you create your own golden elixir in the future?

In addition to promoting the progress of the three sects' methods, Ning Zhuo also did not forget to accumulate his physical foundation.

The main aid is still the fetal breathing spirit boat.

After experiencing two wars of conquest, Ning Zhuo had a deeper understanding of physical cultivation. A strong physical cultivation was very important, and if one could have a relatively high lower limit, the probability of survival on the battlefield would be greatly increased.

And powerful beings like Lord Long and Xiang Yue, who can easily stir up the situation on the battlefield, all possess extremely strong physical foundations.

But for Ning Zhuo, it would be extremely difficult to achieve the level of Long Ye and Xiang Yue.

It requires chance and the use of treasures like the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat. Compared to Lord Long and Xiang Yue, it requires a higher price!

This is because the cultivation methods of Mr. Long and Xiang Yue both focus on cultivating the physical body and mainly promote the lower dantian essence sea.

Ning Zhuo's three supreme methods are the result of practicing the three seas together. The Demonic Blood-stained Tendon Technique is more advanced in control, and its accumulation and improvement of the physical foundation is not as good as that of Long Ye and Xiang Yue.

"Although the effect of physical training is still considerable at the moment, the fetal breathing spirit boat cannot continue forever. There will always be a day when its training effect will decline until it is reduced to zero."

On the one hand, using exercises to cultivate the body is cheaper, and on the other hand, it is more stable than using precious materials, magic weapons, etc.

The Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat was of great help to Ning Zhuo!

In the second major battle, Ning Zhuo was able to leverage such a high combat power, and Taixi Lingge was one of the biggest contributors behind the scenes.

After the battle, Ning Zhuo did not treat his wounds at all. He recovered in a few days relying solely on his body's self-healing ability.

In addition to advancing his skills and physical cultivation, Ning Zhuo also began to cultivate the third aspect, namely the soul.

The battle between the two ghosts of heaven and earth made Ning Zhuo deeply aware that his insufficient soul foundation was a major weakness. Therefore, if he was targeted, Ning Zhuo would be in a very dangerous situation.

Speaking of which, Ning Zhuo had spent a short period of time in Huoshi Immortal City, during which his soul foundation had grown.

He first used the Soul Devouring Technique, and then practiced a spell on his own, called the Ghost Warrior Divine Weapon Training Method. This method can consume soul power, cut off part of the soul, and forge a ghost weapon.

Therefore, when Ning Zhuo left Huoshi Immortal City, his soul strength was nearly two hundred times that of a normal person, and he had refined a ghost axe the size of a door panel, which could be considered a companion soul weapon.

Compared with people of the same age or those in the foundation-building stage, this kind of soul foundation is already quite good.

But at the Jindan level, it is totally not good enough.

When facing the two ghosts of heaven and earth, it is no different from "nothing".

In the storage bag of Sky Ghost, there are the main cultivation methods of him and Earth Ghost. The two of them came from the Soul Devouring Sect, which is one of the holy places for soul and ghost cultivators. Naturally, the cultivation methods are very excellent.

In addition to his hard training, Ning Zhuo used his spare time to browse and comprehend these techniques.

It is impossible for him to practice.

The three sects' methods have already covered the three major dantians. Practicing other techniques is tantamount to asking for trouble, or even self-mutilation or suicide.

Ning Zhuo comprehended the essentials and secrets of soul cultivation, which would be of great help to him in using some treasures and precious materials to cultivate his soul in the future.

"Speaking of which, the White Paper City in Black Water Mountain is a soul cultivation city."

"Once I get there, in addition to obtaining Sangle Youling's divination, I can also buy and sell some soul cultivation materials or treasures to make up for the weaknesses of my soul." Ning Zhuo planned secretly.

Tian Gui’s wealth is too high. Ning Zhuo is currently only in the foundation-building stage and needs a lot of basic soul materials.

One day later.

Sun Ning and the other person took the initiative to escape from the void and returned to the real world. They patrolled the nearby area for a while and successfully found their target.

Frosthowl Valley!Like the Burning Star Crater, it is also one of the wonders of the world.
