Chapter 1132: Chapter 1132: Thunder and Lightning, Thunderbolt Child

The speed of this dark surge was very fast, and the few members of the Yin Yang Sect definitely couldn’t stop them.

Hua Qianmo was anxious, not knowing when Long Fei would be able to arrive.

Taking advantage of the local terrain, the first line of defense she arranged at the entrance of the valley could probably only hold out for a short while.

After the Wing Clan of the Blood Clan conducted reconnaissance, she waved the Command Banner, instructing her disciples to don their invisibility cloaks.

These invisibility cloaks were mass-produced, with Invisibility Formations made of spatial Mystic Patterns.

They just required a Spirit Stone to activate the Formation, achieving the effect of invisibility.

The Wing Clan were cunning; their leader had a strategic vision, aware of the treacherous terrain, and took the lead in ordering his subordinates to activate the Mechanical Cannons strapped to their bodies, sweeping the areas where the Yin Yang Sect was ambushed with a barrage of gunfire.

These Mechanical Cannons, with 2000 bullets and a 20mm caliber, could easily penetrate steel plates.

The dense bullet rain was like a fierce storm of hail, thunderously crashing down, causing the rocks and vegetation at the valley mouth to splatter chaotically.

The underneath disciples of the Yin Yang Sect may be invisible, but they could not block these bullets.

Everyone promptly gathered Essential Qi to protect themselves, with the bullets seeming to strike a thick layer of cotton net.

Some of the disciples with lower Cultivation Levels, although not injured, were still shaken by the bullets to the point of spitting out a mouthful of stifled blood.

Hua Qianmo and a group of women furrowed their brows as they watched this scene, finally realizing this was a major battle, not a game.

Without Long Fei here, they felt unexpectedly vulnerable.

Hua Qianmo stared thoughtfully at the Wing Clan wearing the Mechanical Cannons and suddenly understood why Long Fei urged the Yin Yang Sect to vigorously develop modern industry.

Such a thing, combined with Daoist magic, would definitely be a powerful weapon if slightly modified for use on the battlefield.

This time, she brought enough Mechanical Cannons, which were initially seized from the Water Bandits on the Yellow River Battlefield.

They etched Fire Elemental Force Inscriptions onto the steel-forged cannon barrels.

A Spirit Stone placed on top to activate the inscription would gather Fire Elemental Force to create an explosion, propelling the cannonball out of the barrel.

The intense combustion, occurring in a limited space, could generate an explosion.

This is the Yuan Force of the Cannon, regardless of whether driven by gunpowder or a Formation, the principle is the same.

It’s just the difference in materials used, one science, and the other Daoist studies.

At that time, Long Fei collected a few and had the Mo Family of the Yin Yang Sect research and improve them.

The artifact refining skills of the Water Bandits were not sophisticated, and the impurities in their steel were not as refined as those in this world’s steel technology.

After the Mo Family’s professional and prolonged refining, the impurities in the cannon barrels were reduced, becoming tough and durable.

Moreover, the cannonballs were also improved.

They no longer used ordinary iron balls, but Thunderbolt Children storing Thunder Elemental Force.

Thunderbolt Children are quite common in the Cultivation World.

But not everyone can refine them; one must gather unreleased Thunder and Lightning essence from the sky on a night of thunderstorms to refine it.

The closer to the midst of the Thunderbolt, the more potent the Thundery essence.

The size of the Thunderbolt varies, as does the power of the Thundery essence.

Chu Feng has a few life-saving Thunderbolt Children passed down from his ancestors, which were refined from the essence of Thunder and Lightning during his ancestor’s Earth Immortal Tribulation.

These Thunderbolt Children could directly blow a Nascent Soul Realm body into ashes.

All Sects have them; because of their immense destructive power and the scant quantities, they are generally only used in life-threatening situations.

The Thunderbolt Children used by the Yin Yang Sect, of course, did not possess such power.

These were the essence of Thunder and Lightning gathered by the Elders of the Yin Yang Sect on the periphery during a night of Thunderstorms.

When refining, first the essence of Thunder and Lightning would be cooled and liquefied, then this liquefied essence would be injected into a crystal for storage.

When facing an adversary, just throw it like a grenade, using spiritual power to trigger it.

Once the exterior crystal shatters, the liquefied essence of Thunder and Lightning inside, upon heating, can immediately burst forth with the might of Thunder and Lightning.

This thing could compete with TNT.

The Mo Family then embedded such Thunderbolt Children within the cannonballs.

The cannonballs were no longer filled with gunpowder but replaced with this substance, using the same kind of fuse.

After being fired, as long as the detonator of the warhead triggers the Thunderbolt Child inside, these crystals would shatter.

In an instant, the Thunder Elemental Force inside would all explode.

Back when the Yin Yang Sect tested it, a single shell blasted a mountaintop into complete disintegration.

The grass and trees struck by the thunder turned to ashes within a radius of a hundred meters in an instant.

This time, Hua Qianmo brought hundreds of shells.

This was all of the Yin Yang Sect’s inventory, and there was no choice, as the difficulty of refining them was too great; only experts of the Nascent Soul Realm could craft them.

After the Wing Clan scouted the terrain, they continued to lead the Beast Tribe along the smooth road and advance through the valley.

Once they reached the mouth of the valley ahead, they could ascend to the midsection of Divine Mountain.

During combat operations, different cultivators confronted each other.

The first consideration was the issue of provisions; it was impossible to bring supplies up the steep cliffs.

Not everyone possessed a Storage Pouch, especially the Western cultivators for whom such spatial storage treasures are extremely scarce.

Following the large army were the transport beasts of the Beast Tribe, carrying provisions.

With a massive size of nearly two hundred thousand, the consumption of food each day was astronomical.

These provisions could only feed them for three days, and after that, food would have to be sourced from the mountain.

The Beast Tribe army was the first to charge into the Mist Formation set up by Hua Qianmo’s people, and in the absence of Long Fei, there were hardly any experts familiar with formations.

Especially those knowledgeable in lethal formations, and even more so a formation that could trap two hundred thousand demonic beasts at once, were non-existent.

Hua Qianmo’s greatest skill was to deploy an easily operated Mist Formation.

This Formation only required water vapor to be misted.

Thousands of Formation Flags were placed all around, and once the Beast Tribe charged in, one after another flag was activated, instantly steaming up invisible mist at the bottom of the valley.

Beast Tribe leaders shouted, "It’s bad, we’re ambushed!"

Fog rising up from flat ground, even fools could sense something was amiss.

The mist spread and enveloped a third of the Beast Tribe.

Yet from the top of the valley, they could be seen clearly.

As the Beast Tribe grew restless, Hua Qianmo waved the Command Banner, signaling the ambushing Cannoners on both sides to fire.

These small and easily-carried Daoist Cannons, similar to mortars, were equipped with shells, and the Mystic Patterns on them were activated.

Boom, boom, boom!

A series of muffled sounds ensued, and flames shot out, like strings of Fire Snakes, hurling the shells out to the bottom of the valley three thousand meters away.

The Thunderbolt Child cannons traced arcs through the air, and upon reaching the valley floor, the detonators were triggered.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Deafening explosions roared to the sky, causing the mountainsides to shudder and shake.

Lightning surged up, forming a continuous barrage with intense heat swiftly steaming up.

The shrapnel from the shattered shells mixed with the thunder and lightning, forming an Inescapable Net, sweeping across numerous beasts of the Beast Tribe.

In just a breath’s time, hundreds of Thunderbolt Child shells were all fired.

The concentrated firepower covered a third of the Beast Tribe, filling the valley with screams and wails, followed shortly by the aroma of roasted meat rising into the air.

Hua Qianmo and her company of women all squinted their eyes, not expecting the shells to be this powerful.

Some of them saw it for the first time, while others had witnessed it during tests.

But to use it in actual combat was indeed a first.

It was truly shocking and explosive, making one’s heart tremble.

Nevertheless, Hua Qianmo still felt a tinge of regret.

If not for the fear of triggering an avalanche or other consequences, she would have liked to throw a dirty bomb down there.

With a mushroom cloud, not a single demonic beast in this valley would have survived.
