Chapter 360: Military First, Ceremony Later
The reason why Lu Sen didn't use redstone bombs was very simple, that thing's "hit rate" was too low.
When fighting against the whales, her summons were numerous and stupid, just like a large group of targets that could be hit no matter how you threw them.
But...the creatures in Yaochi are all intelligent. Not only will they hide, but once they get used to it, they may also use various means to "throw" your things back to you.
But it is much more troublesome than the whale's summons.
Therefore, this "long-range" method that can attack one person at a time and has built-in tracking is very practical.
Moreover, Lu Senna has many concubines, each with special bonuses. Now the redstone longbow synthesized by him often has some strange characteristics.
There will be many additional entries.
For example, there are freezing effects, stamina-absorbing effects, bloodthirstiness, increased attack, increased firing rate, increased armor-piercing effects, and other 'affixes'.
Even if you are unlucky, there may be one or two affixes on the weapon. If you are lucky, the attack attribute of the cold weapon will be greatly improved, and with various special effects, it will definitely be a magic weapon.
Lu Sen and his companions were all holding top-grade redstone longbows.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken only three arrows to break the huge shield of a Yao Chi master.
Afterwards, Lu Sen, along with his five disciples, began to "kill" those enemies who looked quite powerful.
No one could withstand their volley of fire, and no matter how the immortals or monsters resisted, it was useless.
It's not that Lu Sen and the others are so strong, but it's pure 'equipment suppression'.
Lu Sen's side was very efficient in killing the enemies, but even so... the number of enemies they killed was not even a fraction of that of Bilian and Pang Meir combined.
Any enemy who falls into her sword formation can rarely escape unscathed.
Sword-wielding is the most powerful technique in the world to defeat the enemy. Many people think that our ancient ancestors were very powerful, but this is actually a misunderstanding.
Lu Sen often chatted with the Queen Mother of the West. According to the latter, whether it was Kunlun Mountain, Yaochi or the Heavenly Palace, their "skills" had not improved for a long time.
Because without spiritual energy, just like doing experiments requires at least materials and energy, if you want to study more powerful techniques, then a large amount of spiritual energy consumption is necessary.
Without spiritual energy, there will be no progress in magic.
In this regard, the human world has actually been "adapting". Even though Mount Shu has declined, there are still cultivation sects like Fuso Island and Mount Li.
If you don’t have spiritual energy anymore, just practice internal strength.
If you put the masters from the secluded place in the human world and fight them against the martial arts masters... the latter can beat the former's heads into pulp.
If we include Buddhism and Taoism, the overall strength of the human world is actually stronger than those powerful people in secluded places.
At least humans can run around the world, but immortals and demons can only survive in a small world.
It’s a similar situation now.
Although there is still spiritual power in Yaochi, it is not much.
In fact, the abilities that everyone can exert are less than 50%.
But Lu Sen and his friends came in after they had eaten and drunk enough.
And he also has spare spiritual energy on him.
You can figure it out with your knees, which side has the greater advantage.
Others could see it, and naturally the Queen Mother could see it as well.
As she fought with the Queen Mother of the West, she watched more and more of her own people die, and she suddenly became anxious: "Yao Qiong, this is too much! It's time to stop."
“Why do you want to stop?”
The Queen Mother of the West replied with a smile, and at the same time turned around and swept with her tiger claws, knocking away Yang Yuanzhen, one of the seven stars of Orion who was trying to launch a sneak attack on her.
"How can you be willing to talk to us properly without killing more people?"
Only then did the Queen Mother of the West truly use her abilities.
A huge Fa Tian Xiang Di shape appeared in the sky and earth, and then she simply swept her right hand and knocked away the surrounding enemies.
Many of them turned directly into meat paste.
Lu Sen and others, who were in the distance, looked at the gigantic Queen Mother of the West and stopped.
Because from now on, the Queen Mother of the West alone will be enough.
The Queen Mother also immediately used the power of heaven and earth to stand in front of the Queen Mother of the West.
In fact, there are many people who can calculate the celestial phenomena and the earth, and almost all of them can calculate the seven planets of Orion.
But the problem is... they don't have enough spiritual power to support this magical power.
"How long can you hold me back?"
The Queen Mother of the West was not in a hurry to attack the Queen Mother, but took out a tortoise shell from behind her and threw it aside.
This is one of her natal magic weapons. After using the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth, the tortoise shell became extremely huge, spinning and turning the surrounding enemies into blood mist.
The Queen Mother watched as more and more people around her died. She stared at the Queen Mother of the West with hatred for a while, then said, "Alright, stop it. I surrender and give the others a chance to live."
Although she said it reluctantly and unwillingly, the situation was stronger than her and she had no choice but to do so.
Queen Mother of the West hooked her fingers, took back the tortoise shell, and said with a sigh: "I haven't had enough fights yet."
"I can see that you held back." Queen Mother snorted, "I'll leave Deng Chanyu to you. Get lost now."
Queen Mother Xi shook her head and smiled, "We are not in a hurry to go back. Can we have a good chat now?"
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment: "You beat us so badly just to have a chat?"
"The barbarian army doesn't like to listen to others' advice. We should first kill their fierce generals and soldiers to make them afraid of us, and then we can persuade them." The Queen Mother of the West smiled and said, "Isn't this the consistent style of your Heavenly Palace and Yaochi?"
The Queen Mother was so angry that her teeth were about to break.
The Queen Mother of the West threw a blue spiritual stone over and said, "Bring all your people back to life."
The Queen Mother subconsciously took the spirit stone, looked around, and withdrew her own Fa Tian Xiang Di.
The same goes for the Queen Mother of the West.
The Queen Mother crushed the spiritual power with all her strength, and when it turned into spiritual energy and was about to disperse, she took a deep breath, and all the blue light dust was sucked into her nostril.
Then she waved her hand, and the rosy glow filled the entire sky. Everything around her seemed as if time had gone back... The destroyed buildings returned to their original shape, and those Yao Chi tribesmen who had lost their lives stood up again one by one. Their wounds were healing quickly, and the divine light reappeared in their eyes.
Everyone here has achieved success in spiritual practice.
Although they are dead on the surface, their souls can still survive for a long time. As long as their bodies are healed or a new body is rebuilt, they can come back to life.
Just like what the Queen Mother is doing now.
The Queen Mother is not very good at fighting, but she has quite a bit of experience in the art of transformation.
Those who had been resurrected looked at Lu Sen and others with strange eyes, angry and a little scared.
"Come with me." The Queen Mother snorted and turned to walk towards the palace.
Queen Mother of the West waved her hand to Lu Sen and others, then followed them up.
When a group of people followed the Queen Mother into the main hall, they saw many fairies in palace costumes who had already decorated the main hall.
The ground is paved with unknown white jade, reflecting a bright luster.
The Queen Mother sat down in her main seat and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."
Lu Sen was just about to find a place to sit down, but Queen Mother of the West took the initiative to move a chair and asked him to sit down first, and then the others sat down behind Lu Sen.
Clearly tell the other party that they focus on Lu Sen.
The Queen Mother looked at the Queen Mother of the West with a strange look in her eyes. Then she turned her gaze back to Lu Sen and asked, "Mr. Lu, what else do you want to do this time besides taking Jian Chanyu away?"
"It's just one of the reasons." Lu Sen originally wanted to let Queen Mother of the West come to negotiate, but the other party pushed him out, so he had to force the issue: "In addition, we want to form an alliance with Yao Chi!"
When the Queen Mother heard this, she was almost furious.
"Since you want to form an alliance, why do you want to fight and kill each other? It makes Yao Chi hostile to you for no reason."
Lu Sen smiled and said, "The last time we came here, not only did you not let us in, but the fairy Chang'e even wanted to kill us."
The Queen Mother was silent for a while, and then she said, "It's just a misunderstanding."
"It's different now. After our friendly discussion, both sides can sit down and talk calmly."
Fortunately, the fight took place in a small world, so the souls could be preserved for a long time.
If it were outside, with the spiritual energy exhausted... that person would be dead and it would be difficult to save him.
It was only after Lu Sen heard this from the Queen Mother of the West that he agreed to her "attack" plan.
He understood that many times, if you don't show a certain amount of force, others will not be willing to talk to you.
The so-called allies must at least be of equal status, otherwise others will not regard you as an ally but only as a servant.
The Queen Mother was also very beautiful, with thick eyebrows that made her look very majestic: "It is true that we can have a good talk, but we also have hatred in our hearts."
"It doesn't matter how much hatred you have. At most, we'll have another fight." Queen Mother of the West laughed and said, "But next time, there will be no spiritual stones as compensation."
If it weren't for the magic stone sent by the Queen Mother of the West, even if she drained all the spiritual energy from the entire Yaochi Lake, she would not be able to save everyone.
The Queen Mother rolled her eyes at the Queen Mother of the West in displeasure, then looked at Lu Sen: "So if we form an alliance, what benefits can we get? What do we have to pay?"
"It's similar to Kunlun Mountain, an offensive and defensive alliance." Because he often chatted with the Queen Mother of the West, Lu Sen could already treat such big figures as 'ordinary' people. He could also look at them with a calm mood and talk to them easily: "We in the system door do things with fairness."
"Fair?" Queen Mother Wang didn't quite believe it. Even the Heavenly Court was not completely fair, otherwise she wouldn't have allowed Yaochi to be independent for such a small matter. "How can it be fair?"
Lu Sen said: "We provide an equal amount of spirit stones every month, and you send people to help us defend the system gate."
"That sounds fair." Queen Mother snorted, "Do you want to write a voucher?"
"certainly."
"How many spirit stones can you provide in a month?"
Lu Sen took out a handful of small spiritual stones from the system backpack: "How about a hundred of these spiritual stones?"
When Queen Mother of the West saw this number, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she looked very happy.
Because this amount is less than one-third of what Lu Sen gave to Kunlun Mountain.
Moreover, the contract signed between Lu Sen and Queen Mother of the West did not specify the monthly amount of spirit stones.
If Lu Sen is happy, he might give more.
The Queen Mother looked at the spiritual stone in Lu Sen's hand and said, "If it is a spiritual stone like the one from Kunlun Yaoqiong just now, one hundred will be enough."
Lu Sen was about to speak... but Queen Mother of the West started cursing first.
"You are a woman who is greedy and has no idea what you are talking about."
