Spirit cultivation and immortality, how do you control an aircraft carrier?

Chapter 87: Firepower Enhanced in All Aspects!

Shen Huang could clearly feel that with the improvement of his strength, the efficiency and upper limit of refining treasure monsters had been greatly improved.

This means he needs more magical treasures to achieve the fastest cultivation efficiency.

One spirit animal in the small restaurant is no longer enough for him.

Add a small reduction, and it's not necessarily the case.

However, Xiao Yuan's efficiency in searching for the treasure monster truly gave Shen Huang a huge surprise.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a drone specifically designed for reconnaissance and attack.

These two combined are already formidable hunters!

This efficiency far surpasses that of Xiao Wan.

It's even better than fishing.

Then, Shen Huang noticed something else.

"Xiao Wan, you've broken through?" he asked in surprise.

"Yes, Master." Xiao Wan spun around, her face beaming on the screen. "I am now a guardian spirit at the second level of the Transcendent Realm."

"Great!" Shen Huang was still delighted, even though he had expected it. "This means we can walk freely in the gray fog."

An escape route has been created.

Even if Sky Village were to be breached by the evil forces of the Demonic Sect, Shen Huang could still hide in the Gray Mist Forest.

With Xiao Yuan's reconnaissance abilities, there's no need to worry too much about being caught.

The only problem is that it will be difficult to explain when we return to the Immortal Dynasty.

Regardless, with the addition of the miniature nuclear warhead in the Qiankun Bag, Shen Huang's safety has now increased to an unprecedented level!

He even felt he could have been bolder.

"I need to cultivate first!" Shen Huang took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said, "I also need to reach the second level of the Mortal Transformation Realm as soon as possible!"

He also began his daily practice.

As Xiao Wan reached the second level of the Transcendent Realm, the spiritual energy she could gather and refine also increased significantly.

However, even so, it was still only barely enough to supply Shen Huang.

"Master's cultivation is getting stronger and stronger." Xiao Wan nestled in Shen Huang's palm, observing silently. "Contemplating the central black hole, it's so powerful. It's probably only at the first level of the Transcendent Realm, yet it can reach a level comparable to, or even surpass, the third level of the Transcendent Realm. It's like crossing two realms and being able to crush everything."

Even though Xiao Wan assisted Shen Huang in successfully visualizing, she never expected that it would be so powerful.

Moreover, she could see it clearly.

The most powerful aspect of the central black hole is not its intensity, but rather its refining speed.

Even Yin Kongtian, who was at the sixth level of the Transcendent Realm, could not absorb spiritual energy as well as his master during his one and a half hours of cultivation.

The efficiency with which it refines magical treasures is terrifying.

Even a random, ordinary-level monster at the first stage of the Transcendent Realm is enough for a first-stage Transcendent Realm Spirit Master to refine for half a month, or even longer.

But the master can refine dozens of them in a single day!

While it consumes a lot of resources, this foundation will only grow stronger over time, especially in breaking through to higher realms.

What is a hurdle that is difficult for ordinary spirit masters to overcome is probably as easy as walking on flat ground for the master.

Xiao Wan was secretly pleased, but also worried.

Resources need to keep up.

She secretly sent a message to Xiao Yuan.

"Master has begun his cultivation. After that, he'll need to refine the treasure monster. You need to hurry up and not hold Master back!"

The little kite remained silent, and its flight speed increased even further.

When Shen Huang finished his cultivation and slowly opened his eyes, his mind returning from the terrifying and vast perception of the black hole in the center of his meditation, he saw Xiao Yuan quietly floating in front of him.

The next moment, she rushed straight into his arms.

However, streams of pure spiritual energy, refined from the evil energy, surged into Shen Huang's body.

This is clearly what Xiao Yuan has gained during this period.

"You've worked hard." Shen Huang rubbed Xiao Yuan's body, quite pleased with himself.

This amount is more than three times the amount Xiao Wan painstakingly fished to lure monsters!

That's enough.

"Xiao Wan has already reached the second level of the Mortal Transformation Realm, you can't fall behind," Shen Huang said to Xiao Yuan with a smile. "Let's try to break through together!"

"Yes, Master," Xiao Yuan replied.

Although she had only been born for a day, Shen Huang was already somewhat familiar with Xiao Yuan's personality.

Although he doesn't talk much, he is very reliable and will carry out his orders meticulously.

"Come on, let me replenish your firepower. This time, we have a big one." With a wave of Shen Huang's consciousness, a large number of bullets and bombs flew out, the most obvious of which was the miniature nuclear warhead!

Although this thing doesn't look much different from a regular bullet.

But among this pile of small bombs, its size stands out.

Xiao Wan guessed what it was at a glance.

They cheered immediately: "Master, you really brought this ultimate weapon!"

"Yes, I brought it." Shen Huang looked at the warhead, feeling a surge of pride. He even memorized its parameters. "This is a fission warhead modeled after the W54. Originally designed for individual rocket launchers, its yield is among the smallest of nuclear weapons, but even so, it still has the equivalent of ten tons of TNT!"

Xiao Yuan and Xiao Guan's CNC library contains relevant equivalent concepts.

That's why they all clearly understand what this equivalent means!

The literal meaning alone is terrifying enough.

Ten tons of TNT bombs!

Even if Shen Huang did nothing but move things all day long at his current speed, it would still take him hundreds of days to move this number of TNT bombs.

What's more, this is a bomb of this magnitude concentrated into a single point and detonated!

Its power is entirely unimaginable.

"According to the weapons expert's explanation to me, the extremely high temperature and pressure within a 150-meter radius of the explosion's center are enough to instantly vaporize and kill all mortals and objects!" Shen Huang paused, then laughed, "Whether a high-level Spirit Master can withstand it, I don't know, but a Transcendent Realm cultivator basically has no chance of withstanding it."

That's right, even though Shen Huang has never actually seen a Spirit Master in the late stage of the Transcendent Realm, he dares to say that.

This is not just his opinion, but the consensus of all weapons experts.

There's no reason why someone in the late stage of the Transcendent Realm should be that much stronger than someone in the mid-stage.

Even so-called prodigies are no exception.

No matter how small the yield, it's still a nuclear explosion!

It reaches tens of millions of degrees Celsius in an instant. The instantaneous temperature at the center is not much different from that of a large equivalent, except that it is insufficient afterward and the duration is short.

"Even outside the epicenter of the explosion, there is deadly radiation within a 400-meter radius. The shockwave and high temperature are enough to destroy most buildings and cause severe burns to living beings. Including the lethal radiation to mortals, its effective kill radius reaches two kilometers!" Shen Huang pursed his lips and said with some regret, "Unfortunately, it can't be used casually; it can only be used as a trump card."

He then explained why it couldn't be used casually, which was accepted by the restaurant owner.

"Master, what Team Leader Xu Hui said is right. This kind of weapon cannot be exposed casually. Otherwise, it will easily cause a sensation among the high-ranking officials of the Immortal Dynasty. Receiving such attention too early will have a great impact on you," Xiao Wan said.

"I know." Shen Huang nodded and said solemnly to Xiao Yuan, "Xiao Yuan, I'm entrusting this to you. Here's the deployment instruction manual. This is our most important safety trump card, so you must keep it safe. But you can't use it lightly."

"Understood, Master." Xiao Yuan's reply was still brief, but it carried a hint of caution.

Clearly, she knows what's important.

"Besides this one, which can't be touched casually, there are quite a few other good things too." Shen Huang looked at the other weapons, his gaze becoming eager. "Xiao Yuan, didn't you ask me to bring back a new set of parameters? After the awakening, your physical strength has increased a lot, and you can withstand more gunpowder."

This is why we were willing to sacrifice some shooting range in order to choose large-caliber firearms.

Under normal circumstances, the amount of gunpowder that a firearm can withstand is limited.

If it's too big, it's easy for the barrel to explode.

However, after becoming a spirit, not to mention supernatural powers such as spiritual energy, magic power, soul, and attributes, the characteristics of the physical material alone will be greatly enhanced.

Therefore, bullet modifications can become even more outrageous.

Increasing firepower is one aspect; even many special bullets that were not originally designed for this caliber can be specially manufactured.

"This time we brought six different types of bullets. Besides the original steel-core armor-piercing rounds, these two armor-piercing rounds are the most powerful." Shen Huang took out two bullets. "The first one is an armor-piercing incendiary round. Its armor-piercing capability is still slightly inferior to the steel-core armor-piercing rounds, but it has added explosive properties, making it extremely effective against both grass-and-tree fog monsters and wild animal fog monsters. The second one is a long-rod tungsten-core discarding sabot armor-piercing round, an enhanced version. This bullet's penetration capability is three times that of the armor-piercing rounds you used before!"

Clearly, the latter is specifically designed to "break shields".

Even if you encounter a situation with a protective spirit object, or a stronger protective spell, or even several shield talismans stacked together, you won't be unable to break the shield.

Moreover, it's not just these two.

Other bullets, such as armor-piercing explosive rounds specifically designed to attack fog monsters with hard shells like stone monsters, and special bullets that can continuously tumble after hitting an enemy, are all special types of bullets customized by weapons experts based on Xiao Yuan's characteristics.

It also includes other types of air-dropped small and medium-sized warheads, each with different power and applications.

It even included a calculation scheme for airdropping.

It is the core of the bombing technology, calculated and practiced within the civilization, enough to make Xiao Yuan an expert bomber in an instant.

It's no exaggeration to say that with the return of these weapons from the Qiankun Bag, Shen Huang's firepower has been comprehensively enhanced.

It's still a significant improvement!

Faced with this barrage of weapons, even the usually quiet Xiao Yuan trembled slightly.

Shen Huang could clearly sense her joy.

Gently stroking his drone, Shen Huang breathed a slight sigh of relief.

What he was more worried about was that Xiao Yuan didn't actually like attacking, after all, she wasn't originally designed as an armed drone.

But now it seems I was overthinking it.

That's right. Spirits themselves come from the gray mist. Even innate protective spirits are born from malevolent energy.

They are, in essence, natural weapons.

"Little Kite," Xiao Wan said with a smile at this moment, "Our hometown has high hopes for you, so you have to work hard. First of all, you have to frantically hunt down treasure monsters, and you must meet your master's cultivation needs no matter what."

"Yes," Xiao Yuan replied solemnly, putting away all the bullets and grenades before taking to the air again. "Let's go hunting."

After Shen Huang agreed, it flew away immediately.

In the blink of an eye, the soul contract could no longer sense her presence.

Only Xiao Guan was able to maintain contact with Xiao Yuan through electromagnetic signals.

In reality, Xiao Yuan, who has only undergone one level of mortal transformation and possesses high-quality talent, should theoretically not be able to walk in the gray fog.

Wherever it goes, it attracts the siege of the fog monsters.

However, Xiao Yuan's speed far exceeds that of the ordinary fog monsters in this area, and her combat strength far surpasses theirs. Moreover, she only flies within a few kilometers around the village and can still maintain contact with Shen Huang at all times, which is why I can rest assured.

"Alright, let's not just let Xiao Yuan work hard, we need to work hard too." Shen Huang pointed at Xiao Wan and asked, "My physical condition should be about the same as He Ye's now, right?"

"Yes, Master, it's about four-fifths of He Ye's level," Xiao Wan replied affirmatively.

"I feel that the improvement has slowed down slightly, but I still don't feel like I've broken through." Shen Huang took a deep breath. "I really don't know what level I can reach."

He Ye was no ordinary third-level Transcendent Realm cultivator; his talent was at a mid-level, or even below mid-to-low level.

All I can say is that the more one cultivates, the more one can feel the strength of one's own inner resources.

Shen Huang has only been cultivating for three days! This is almost more than He Ye's more than ten years of hard work!

I wonder if the so-called geniuses of this world can reach this level.

Continue your practice!

After that, time seemed to suddenly become very busy.

Aside from eating and sleeping, Shen Huang mainly does four things.

Set up reconnaissance devices and traps nearby, grind monsters to train, return to the home planet to transport various weapons, and find Yin Kongtian to chat and learn more about this world, especially about various aspects of cultivation.

It's worth mentioning that among the pills obtained from the day's spoils, there really was a Rejuvenation Pill!

It mainly consists of two bottles of each of four different types of pills.

There are Refining Pills for cultivation, Rejuvenation Pills for healing injuries, Rejuvenation Pills for restoring magical power, and Spirit Replenishment Pills for replenishing spiritual consciousness.

These pills are the most common pills for those in the Transcendent Stage, and even so, such a quantity is still quite valuable.

It's worth about three hundred bags of Ling rice.

The bag here is the unit of measurement that Ji Guo usually uses; it's only the size of a palm. The bags that Hong Fei used to apologize to him before were also this size.

One bag contains about 10,000 grains, weighing about half a pound, enough to feed an ordinary person for a hundred days, or to survive for more than a year and a half!

These two hundred bags of spirit rice are enough to feed several hundred ordinary people in a village for almost half a year.

The pills and spirit rice in the Qiankun bag were not the most valuable; the most valuable were the spiritual materials.

These spiritual materials are worth approximately eight hundred bags of spiritual rice!
