Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 16420 Methods
"We've achieved our objective in this attack, and we've also obtained the data on the Shattering Star Sword. To be honest, its power is quite good. Most importantly, its design is excellent. Although it's a one-time consumable, its power is still considerable. I've already shared the data on this magical artifact with Lao Wen and the others, and they already know what it is. Frankly, this kind of artifact is nothing to Lao Wen and the others, and Lao Wen also feels that there's really no need for us to acquire it. Its power is even less than our Sky-Fire, so there's no need to worry about it at all," Chang Jun said with a smile, looking at everyone.

Upon hearing Chang Jun's words, Xu Ying and the others all nodded. To be honest, Xu Ying and the others also looked down on that Shattered Star Sword. To be honest, apart from its decent attack power, the Shattered Star Sword was really nothing special. If it weren't for the need to avoid arousing suspicion, they wouldn't have cared about the Shattered Star Sword at all. That thing was indeed a bit of a waste for the Blood Slaughter Sect.

Chang Jun continued, "We've dispelled their suspicions now. No matter how we attack next time, they won't suspect Elder Gongliang. So we don't need to be polite anymore. Although they used the Illusion Stone Array, this kind of array is very weak against the alien insects and the Heavenly Vine. We only need to use the Heavenly Vine and the alien insects to attack and destroy their base. Then, with the help of this Thousand Machine Star, their Shattering Star Swords will be no match for them. The only thing to watch out for is their kingdom-level experts and their sect-protecting treasures. However, we have more sect-protecting treasures, enough to deal with them. But if we attack them again immediately, it will arouse their suspicion. So we need to wait. How about ten days from now? After ten days, we will launch a full-scale attack on them. This time, the target will still be Wuwei City."

Everyone responded, and then Chang Jun said, "This time, the purpose of attacking Wuwei City is to take down all the people there. First, we will destroy their illusion stone array, and then set up our barrier array so that they cannot escape, cannot communicate with the outside world, and cannot be supported by others using the teleportation array. In this way, we can wipe out all the people in Wuwei City."

Everyone responded, and Chang Jun continued, "We've been setting up formations here at Qianhe Mountain for a while now, and none of us have had a proper rest. So, let's take this opportunity to get some rest."

Everyone responded once again, and then Chang Jun told them to go and rest. Everyone stood up, saluted Chang Jun, and then turned and left.

On the other side, Gongliang Juewen sat in the main hall, looking triumphant. Qingxuan and the others were all there, their faces beaming with smiles. Gongliang Juewen looked at them and said with a slight smile, "Good, I've called everyone here. I think you all know why. The Blood Slaughter Sect attacked Wuwei City but was repelled, and they destroyed ten Creation Golden Wheels in one fell swoop. This is definitely good news for us. This time, the Shattered Star Sword has made a great contribution. Minister Qingxuan, your Tianxuan Sect deserves the greatest credit this time."

Qingxuan stood up and bowed to Gongliang Juewen. Gongliang Juewen waved with a smile, and Qingxuan sat down. Then Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone and said, "Now that we have the Shattering Star Sword, we can deal with their Creation Golden Wheel and even their Transformation Shield. With this, I think we can launch a counterattack. Do we have any way to break through their Earth Solidification Technique?"

Upon hearing Gongliang Juewen's words, Qingxuan and the others were all taken aback. However, they all understood what Gongliang Juewen meant. Now that they had a way to deal with the Blood Slaughter Sect, they naturally needed to consider a counterattack. That was why Gongliang Juewen said such a thing.

Qingxuan and the others were also considering this issue. They felt that it seemed they could really launch a counterattack. They now had a way to deal with the Creation Golden Wheel, and they could also deal with the Blood Slaughter Sect's transforming shield. The Blood Slaughter Sect's biggest advantage would be gone, so of course they had to consider a counterattack.

Thinking of this, they all began to consider how to launch a counterattack. To launch a counterattack, they had to break the land solidification array in the Blood Slaughter Sect's base. However, the Blood Slaughter Sect's land solidification array was very strong and not easy to break. At this moment, everyone turned their attention to Wen Jing, because Wen Jing was the expert in arrays.

Wen Jing glanced at everyone, gave a wry smile, and then said, "Actually, there are two ways to break the land solidification array. One is to use a targeted mud array to break their land solidification array. However, this would require building a very large mud array, which is generally ineffective. The best method is to use the Creation Golden Wheel to create a mud array to break their land solidification array. But whether this method will be effective is hard to say. After all, their array can cover the entire base, which means their array is quite powerful. Whether the mud array created by the Creation Golden Wheel can break their array is uncertain. Unless we have many Creation Golden Wheels, it will be very difficult to break their land solidification array with a mud array."

Everyone nodded, and Gongliang Juewen then asked, "What about the second method?"

Wen Jing said, "The second method is to use both water and fire techniques to break their land solidification array. Although the land solidification technique is very powerful and can make the land as hard as steel, it doesn't actually turn the land into steel; it only makes it as hard as stone. However, this has another drawback: it also becomes brittle, like stone. If we first use fire techniques to burn the soil and then use water techniques to extinguish the fire, the land will become very brittle, and it might even crack on its own. This method may not be very fast, but it will definitely work, and it might even be faster than using the mud technique. This is the best method I can think of."

Upon hearing this, Gongliang Juewen immediately asked, "Have you conducted any experiments in this area? Do you have any specific data? How long does the fire need to burn, and at what temperature, to make the soil brittle?" Wenjing shook his head and said, "We don't have any data on this yet, but we've heard that someone used this method before."

Gongliang Juewen immediately said, "Someone come here."

Immediately, a eunuch approached, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and said, "Go, try it out. First, apply a soil-stabilizing spell, then burn it with fire, and then pour water on it to see if the ground cracks. Remember, conduct several trials. I need specific data: how big of a fire to use, how long to burn it, when to pour water—everything must be remembered clearly. Go." The eunuch acknowledged, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and then turned and left.

Gongliang Juewen then turned to look at the others and said, "Once they have the specific data, I will have them send it to you. If this method really works, then we can properly deal with the Blood Slaughter Sect."

Everyone nodded, and Gongliang Juewen continued, "Right now, the most important thing is the Shattering Star Sword. The Shattering Star Sword is a consumable magic weapon, so we need to have as many as possible."

Everyone nodded, and Wan Hai said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. With this experience, everyone knows the importance of the Shattered Star Sword, and everyone will speed up the forging of the Shattered Star Sword."

Gongliang Juewen nodded and then said, "Alright, everyone, let's go back first. For the time being, the Blood Slaughter Sect should not dare to attack us again. We can take this opportunity to refine more Shattering Star Swords and test whether there are any other ways to break the Earth Solidification Technique. By the way, Minister Wen said before that the Creation Golden Wheel can be used to break the Earth Solidification Technique with the Mud Technique. I think we must guard against the Blood Slaughter Sect using this method. After all, the Blood Slaughter Sect has a lot of Creation Golden Wheels, and they may use this method to deal with us."

When Wan Hai and the others heard what Gongliang Juewen said, they all nodded. They were so happy that they forgot that the Blood Slaughter Sect had more Creation Golden Wheels than they did. Wenjing's method was more suitable for the Blood Slaughter Sect than for them.

Gongliang Juewen glanced at them, then said, "Alright, everyone, disperse. When you get back, think carefully about how to deal with the Blood Slaughter Sect's Earth Solidification Technique." Everyone responded, then stood up, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and turned to leave.

After they left, Gongliang Juewen went straight back to his study and called Chang Jun. After Chang Jun answered the phone, Gongliang Juewen told him what they had said in the meeting that day.

After Gongliang Juewen finished speaking, Chang Jun smiled and said, "Well done. However, the reason we lost those ten Creation Golden Wheels before was mainly to prevent them from suspecting you. After the last battle, they no longer suspect you. We are ready to show our true strength next time. So we will attack again next time, and this time our attack will be completely unexpected. So you don't need to worry."

Upon hearing Chang Jun's words, Gongliang Juewen breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Chang Jun and said, "Elder Chang, are you really preparing for a full-scale attack this time?"

Chang Jun nodded and said, "Yes, this time we are going to launch a full-scale attack. It's been so long, it's time for a proper attack. So they probably won't have a chance to attack us again, and the methods you discussed will probably be useless."
