Chapter 738 Crimson Clouds

ose Hall. With pavilions scattered everywhere and countless pleasure boats, you can imagine that such a place is teeming with all sorts of people, their connections as intricate as the roots of a tree...Huaijiang Ecological Volcano, Thousand Machine Camp.

The Qianjiying retains its unique regimental number within the Engineer Corps.

This is the elite version of the engineering corps's tabletop.

"Willow!"

Here it is.

A woman threw the last bundle of charred twigs into the bottom of the brazier. Before leaving, she looked up and took a long, deep look at the newly risen moon.

After the Thousand Year War, Kunyu migrated westward. As an orphan, she was picked up by a veteran of Kunyu. Due to her unique talent in alchemy, she quickly rose to prominence and was recruited into the Qianji Camp.

Like everyone else, she called the veteran Old Dad and always listened to him recount tales of the Moon Capture War.

That year, the land was shattered. The Moon God of the Xiongnu invaded Jiuyuan, slaughtering an entire border village. My father, because he was short, hid and escaped. Later, in order to avenge his family, he joined the Mohist workshop at Jiuyuan Fortress.

After Beihai Shuai took over as the fifth-generation head of the Mo family, his father followed Lu Chengnan in battles north and south, becoming a military cultivator in the army and adopting countless orphans.

But as generations passed, only she remained of her father's children. Some had gone to the City of the Dead and many more died on the battlefields against the Holy Nation.

The blood debt on his body is growing heavier, and the deep hatred is becoming more intense.

She knew that her father was not afraid of death, but that he feared not being able to avenge his great grudge.

He is too old. If it's too late, he may not live to see the future.

Now, on the peak of Huaijiang Mountain, a woman looks out at the bright moon. The Huaijiang Ecological Volcano Project is another massive undertaking, bringing the future one step closer. Hopefully, it won't be too far away.

The woman's eyes flickered, and she walked down the mountain in response.

Actually, for many years, she has been repeating a dream. In the dream, she is a revered elder, her alchemy skills unmatched; in the dream, she has a very capable disciple, and she herself participates in the millennial war, where her cultivation reaches its peak but she ultimately ends up defeated, left with only bitter regret.

In her dream, she called out to Changqing.

But dreams are just dreams after all.

"Nizi, take this. Go dig a ditch down below. I'll go fry some fish and roast them with your thing for the soldiers."

"Dad, that's my pill furnace, I use it to refine pills!"

"I'm not very good at grilling fish," Yang Liu said helplessly.

The Qianjiying is just a name; it's actually the elite version of the Beihai Auxiliary Army. Members are proficient in various auxiliary skills like medicine, food supplies, siegecraft, construction, and bridge building. Unlike other troops, they haven't undergone any secret realm camp training. Their skills are honed solely through actual combat experience on the battlefield.

"You know that Beihai's famous hot pot can still be used for alchemy" the elder gave her a withering glance.

"Can I compare to the Grand Marshal" Yang Liu said, taking the fish with a smile. "Father, you are a powerful cultivator of the Huashan School and a master puppet maker. You still use gunpowder to catch fish!"

"The conditions are harsh, no use having spirit, even the mother scorpion has to do hard labor, then she clears a channel and makes way for the explosives at the mine." Old Dad stroked his beard: "If we have no spirit, we are nothing but ordinary mortals. Why can't we use these explosives"

"Father, I was practicing alchemy near the volcano's crater and discovered that even the burning 'World Tree' can generate energy," Yangliu said.

"Who doesn't know" Father glanced at the mountaintop: "However, the energy here is too chaotic, and there are no building materials here. Even using the technique of transforming qi would be futile. Using it would lead to death."

"Father, look," Yang Liu took out a luminous pill.

On the woman's hand, there was a red light flowing inside, it looked very beautiful.

"That!"

"Crimson clouds like flowing blood." The woman blurted out, but then lowered her head.

This is similar to the name of the most famous immortal elixir, "Guiying Liudan," recorded in ancient texts. Wouldn't people have an issue with this

It is said that the Seven Stars of the East China Sea are asleep, and the most famous alchemy formula has been lost. No one can refine this immortal elixir.

Behai, when he was crossing the tribulation, once tried to find a fairy pill to save Zulong's soul, but in the end, only left a sentence: There are probably no fairy pills in the world, only immortals become pills.

It is said that Behai Shuai once, in the tribulation realm, refused the temptation to refine Tianpeng Xing's remains into an immortal pill and recreate the elixir of immortality [Guiying Liudan]. If he had succeeded back then, wouldn't he be the only true Danxian who still sleeps and walks on earth today

"Girl, how did you come by this" Father's face brightened with delight.

Yang Liu didn't know why, but she often had extraordinary insights in alchemy.

"The fire here burns high-quality deadwood, producing chaotic fire energy that cannot be absorbed directly. However, it can be channeled into medicine to obtain a large amount of usable Fire Spirit Qi," Yang Liu continued.

"Does this comply with the Qin standard" The old man took the pill and examined it carefully.

The extraordinary world, energy chaotic.

Places everywhere are simply filled with all sorts of magical elements. There's magic, divine power, spiritual energy, and even godly power...and so on.

In order to compete with the logistical prowess of the Holy Nation, Qin Shi decided to unify weights and measures, as well as writing.

Unity of all, a technique for transforming energy into Qi to defend against all laws under heaven. All energy passing through this technique can be transformed into Qi. As long as it conforms to the Qin System, all energies consumed by Chinese schools of magic and transformed foreign spells will follow the same rules.

This refers to the rule of Qi, White 1-Star's 【Qi】 defending against White 1-Star's method, and Golden 9-Star Immortal Qi defending against Golden 9-Star Immortal Method. Of course, there is still a distinction between the types: wood, metal, water, and fire.

"That's natural." Yang Liu said proudly, "Our army has many Dan masters. Using this method to refine Hongyunliu Dan, we can capture the scattered energy of flames and provide for the entire army's needs."

I'll report to the commander immediately!

You drew a random event card.

【Hongyun Liudan】: The card you played currently has the keyword "Dan Shu," which allows it to transform the energy of the Burning World Tree into gas. This card no longer consumes national strength, and when this army is deployed at [Huaijiang], due to Dan Shu, national strength increases by 1 each turn.

You unlocked the special derived card 【Crimson Flowing Dan】, which can be used for trading.

Lu Cheng looked at the card.

This event is so cool!

As expected, the auxiliary troops are truly powerful! They can build, defend, and produce all at once. If this special event with the medicine continues, utilizing spirit magic gunpowder to carve mountains, we could clear the [Zhengguo Canal] within 2 turns and cool down the volcano.

Within two rounds, you won't trigger a volcanic disaster event. After cooling down the water, you can gain at least thirty rounds of buffer time. Research the Harmony Formation and encircle the volcano with ice!

By then, a volcano brimming with energy and fuel will be completely under its own control.

Exceptionally fertile volcanic ash can be used to create the 【Huaijiang】 Mountain, with mountains and seas close at hand.

The burning potential of the withered branches buried beneath Huaijiang is unimaginable. Perhaps, as Yaoji said, it could provide abundant Fire Spirit Qi for crafting Kunlun Mountain.

Then, according to the engineering blueprint, gathering the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth), and the two qi (yin and yang) form the mountain card.

Then, I will have [Huaijiang - Fire] in hand. I already have [Youdu Mountain - Yin], and [Shennü Peak - Wood], [Hua Guo Shan - Earth]. Let me rebuild [Bu Zhou Shan - Water] once more.

At that time, only two of the Five Elements Yin and Yang remained. Below the Emperor, there was a city, and immortals made their homes in the Kunlun mountain range!ng."Hey, by the way! Lu, little brother, you're doing those tasks today too, right!!! Just that one, open the banquet!" The fat man put down the video, feeling restless. Watching a video wasn't as fun...
