Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 189 The Lü Family: Zhou Qing miscalculated, we can win!
Zhou Qing was not arrogant or conceited.

The main reason is that the secret method of bringing dead trees back to life can enhance his magnetic field strength to an unbelievable level.

Putting aside other things, under normal circumstances, he can accelerate the iron ball to thirty times the speed of sound, which is enough to easily kill Wei Xing, who is at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, from two or three miles away.

In his rejuvenated state, he can tear through the air, create a vacuum environment, and accelerate iron pellets to more than one hundred times the speed of sound.

That terrifying power is probably already very close to the level of a Golden Core cultivator.

This was only the result of his experiment when he was at the third level of Qi Refining.

Now that he has advanced to the fourth level of Qi Refining, in two more years, when he advances to the sixth level or above of Qi Refining, he can't even imagine what it will be like when he uses the "Rejuvenation of Withered Trees" technique again.

Even if he can't defeat Xu Jingfeng, as long as he demonstrates the power of a Golden Core cultivator, along with Mu Zhuosha, the two of them will be enough to forcefully push forward their ideas.

Mu Zhuosha scratched her head and said, "Damn it, I've become the one who's dragging everyone down."

"Even if you are confident in fighting Xu Jingfeng, it's useless. The sect leader is not so simple. I can't say for sure what level he has reached."

"There's one more thing. Ancestor Lei Jiao always obeys the sect leader's orders. You haven't experienced the terror of Lei Jiao yet."

Zhou Qing was taken aback, realizing that he had overlooked this guardian spirit beast of the Qingyun Sect.

This person has lived for over a thousand years and is at the peak of the Golden Core stage.

Zhou Qing shook his head regretfully and said, "It seems we have no choice but to give up. However, while we cannot revoke their sales rights, we cannot let them off easily either."

"Uncle-Master, please discuss this with Uncle-Master Chen after you return, and re-determine the method for each shop to hand over its profits."

“Previously, the sect would keep four parts, while the array court and the shops would each get three parts.”

“A lot of the profits are actually embezzled by them. I suggest that we collect an additional three percent from them based on the average amount paid by each store over the years.”

Mu Zhuosha smiled and said, "This could be a good opportunity."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "There's one more thing. The complete version of the Anti-Qing Restoration Formation Array that I told you about before is finished and will be available on the market soon."

Mu Zhuosha's eyes lit up, and she said, "Good, good, good. Those guys have been making so much money off us for so long, I'm so envious."

Nearly two years after the release of the "Beggar's Edition of Anti-Qing Restoration," the majority of the profits were eaten up by several affiliated families, with only a small portion ending up in the hands of the sect. Zhou Qing only made a name for himself.

There's nothing we can do about it; the formation is public, and there's no way to stop affiliated families from recording it.

Now that the full version is out, its features far surpass those of the basic version, and Zhou Qing has no plans to raise the price. At that time, the basic version of "Anti-Qing Restoration" will be completely eliminated from the market.

……

Chuan Gong Tang, Mao Liang's courtyard.

Mao Liang, Lü Qingzhu, and the other two family heads brought the unconscious Bai Muyun here.

Bai Muyun was only momentarily overcome by anger and woke up shortly afterward.

But his condition was worse than when he was in a coma.

The group was shocked to see his disordered breathing and bloodshot eyes.

"Oh no, he's going to be possessed by a demon!"

Mao Liang shouted.

Lu Qingzhu hurriedly took out a jade tablet from his bosom and said, "Use the Anti-Qing Restoration Formation to suppress it."

Before he could activate the formation, Bai Muyun shouted, "I don't want to use his formation!"

Lu Qingzhu said, "Why bother with this, Master Bai? Wouldn't it be better to use the enemy's resources to defeat them? We can't do without you right now."

Bai Muyun then stopped objecting. Lü Qingzhu activated the array plate.

A mysterious fluctuation of spiritual energy swept by, and everyone in the room felt their anxiety lessen.

The red in Bai Muyun's eyes faded, and he said hatefully, "I will not let him go!"

Lu Cenzhong sighed, "But now that he's in charge of the court, it's like he's holding our lifeline in his hands. How can we fight him?"

The shop sells not only formations and talismans, but also pills and magic weapons from the Weapon Forging Institute and the Alchemy Institute. However, the main profit comes from talismans and formations.

The reason is simple: there are no dedicated sects specializing in array formations in the entire Western Continent. Each sect has its own array court and its own strengths, so each sect can benefit from its own strengths.

Alchemy and weapon crafting are different.

For alchemy, there's the Medicine King Valley; for weapon crafting, there's the Heavenly Weapon Sect.

These two companies essentially hold a monopoly on the trade of elixirs and magical artifacts.

Other sects simply cannot compete with it.

Therefore, by losing the Zhenyuan Court, Bai Muyun essentially lost a large portion of the resources at his disposal.

Everyone fell silent.

After a long pause, Lü Cenzhong suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "We have fought Zhou Qing several times and have almost never won, but Zhou Qing still miscalculated on the most crucial issue of interests."

Everyone was taken aback and asked, "What do you mean?"

Lü Cenzhong laughed and said, "Have you all forgotten that the anti-Qing and restoration of Ming formation was also invented by Zhou Qing?"

"Our move to trick him into revealing the anti-Qing and restoration formations instead of handing them over to the Formation Court was brilliant."

"The talismans that Zhou Qing invented later were very profitable, but they were still far inferior to the anti-Qing and restoration of Ming formations."

"With just this array, we can all make a fortune."

"If the Anti-Qing Restoration Campaign targets us in the future, we should simply keep all the profits from the Anti-Qing Restoration Campaign and not hand them over to the sect."

"If the sect leader wants to blame someone, we can just pin it on Zhou Qing. That way, we'll have something to say."

Everyone nodded with satisfaction, having to admit that this was indeed one of the few times they had the upper hand when facing Zhou Qing.

Bai Muyun had initially held a grudge against Zhou Qing over this matter, but now she was actually pleased with it, which was quite ironic.

Lu Cenzhong laughed and said, "Let's go back now and urge our respective array masters to inscribe more anti-Qing and restoration array plates, and then sell them in large quantities. Although we can't completely recover the losses, at least we'll make Zhou Qing feel a little annoyed."

Everyone burst out laughing, but after a few laughs, they felt a little awkward.
They were all either sect elders or heads of large families. Now, facing a disciple who had only been in the sect for less than three years, they felt that it was a victory if they could make the other party feel a little annoyed.

Are there any other family heads and elders in this world who are so incompetent?

The group tacitly fell silent.

……

Over the next few days, Zhou Qing accompanied all the array masters attending the conference. They sometimes discussed wave theory and sometimes exchanged the rune booklets shared by Zhou Qing.

Under Zhou Qing's guidance, the highly skilled array masters quickly learned to deduce the properties of runes based on their fluctuation frequencies, as well as to calculate the effects of combining different runes.

They discovered that the effects of rune combinations were no longer purely a matter of luck, but rather a rational activity that could be predicted through calculation.

Although this calculation method is not yet perfect and there is still a lot of room for improvement, it is undoubtedly a correct path for the development of formations.
