Mu Shen's combat power may not reach the level of the Lord of Heaven or Duan Xiaohuan.
But the realm of Wood God is higher than theirs.
As early as 160,000 years ago, he had seen through everything and started to arrange it.
The Wood God is convinced that mankind can finally defeat the sky, and the order of the three realms will be reorganized. In the future, cultivators will sadly withdraw from the human world, and this ancient continent will be completely controlled by mortals.
The source of his confidence seems absurd to outsiders.
It's a piece of paper.
Recorded on the paper is the refining method of black powder.
Although Ye Xiaochuan also saw that black gunpowder has great potential and can affect the development of the world of cultivation, his vision is still not broad enough, and he does not see the terrible power of black gunpowder and its future development like Mu Shen did.
potential.
Even Ye Xiaochuan underestimated the potential of black gunpowder, and Yuan Xiaolou naturally underestimated it even more.
Yuan Xiaolou said: "Grandpa, what is the black powder you are talking about?"
The old storyteller said: "It's the mysterious gunpowder that recently appeared on the Longmen battlefield. I think you, Mr. Ye, know better than anyone else. The black gunpowder in the hands of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang must have something to do with you."
Ye Xiaochuan smiled bitterly and nodded, saying: "I did get the secret recipe of black gunpowder in Kunlun Wonderland back then, and I did give it to the five tribes in southern Xinjiang for them to refine it secretly.
I also know that the emergence of black gunpowder will change the way wars are fought in the future. Therefore, over the years, the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang have been secretly refining black gunpowder just to cope with the catastrophe before them.
When the catastrophe ends, all the black powder will be destroyed and the secret recipe will be sealed again."
The old storyteller shook his head and said: "You are too naive. Once this new type of weapon appears, it will never disappear again.
Currently, the only people who have the secret recipe of black powder are the Five Tribes of Southern Xinjiang and the Tiannu Kingdom of Kunlun Wonderland. However, as the catastrophe continues, more and more black powder will be put into the battlefield.
Although you have mastered the secret recipe, the refining method of black gunpowder is not difficult. The raw materials are the same as the gunpowder used to make fireworks and firecrackers in the world, but the adjustment ratio is different.
Nowadays, the Chinese imperial court is already imitating the black gunpowder based on the small amount of black powder obtained from the battlefields in the Western Regions.
Although the power is still not as powerful as the black gunpowder in the hands of Southern Xinjiang and Tiannv Kingdom, it is already much stronger than the gunpowder used in the world before.
It won't be long before the imperial court will thoroughly understand the method of refining black powder and even improve it.
Nowadays, black powder is only made into explosive packets, which are used to blow up enemies. It is really useful. Giant warriors are vulnerable to black powder packets.
But Mu Shen once told Ling Chuchu that the potential of gunpowder is definitely not just for blowing up people or rocks. It is more like the most basic raw material. There may be countless different changes in the future, and its power will also be different.
It will continue to improve with human research.
The development of black gunpowder in the human world has become a foregone conclusion. Even if we block the secret recipe at the same time as your Kingdom of Goddess, it will not help.
Back then, it was Mu Xiaoshan who developed black gunpowder.
Now, it is you who have brought black powder to the world.
All this may seem like a coincidence, but in fact it is all predestined.”
Ye Xiaochuan fell into silence.
Yes, people's hearts are greedy and their desires are endless.
Faced with such a powerful new war weapon, humans will try every means to obtain it, study it, and improve its power. I was naive before, thinking that as long as the secret recipe was sealed, it would not be leaked.
But in less than a month, the imperial court has already begun to imitate black powder.
There are only three raw materials for this thing, saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal.
Gunpowder exists in the human world itself, and it has been developed for many years, using these three raw materials.
The craftsmen in the world are constantly adjusting the proportions of these three materials. Soon, the secret recipe of black powder will no longer be a secret.
Seeing Ye Xiaochuan's frown, Ye Cha said: "Xiaochuan, do you regret giving the secret recipe of black gunpowder to the five tribes in southern Xinjiang?"
Ye Xiaochuan nodded slightly.
Said: "Since the Wood God is so afraid of black gunpowder, and the Shouling clan has guarded the secret recipe for 160,000 years, it shows that I underestimated the power of black gunpowder.
Not to mention mortals, even for cultivators with poorer cultivation, I have a very strong feeling that once black gunpowder spreads in the world, I am afraid that far more lives will die from the black gunpowder than from the catastrophe.
of creatures.”
Ye Cha hummed: "Boy, you really think that you are a Bodhisattva who saves all sentient beings. What kind of figure is the Wood God? Since he saw that black gunpowder is a super killer weapon, why didn't he destroy the secret recipe and let the Shouling clan
, guarding the secret recipe for 160,000 years?
Everything in the world exists and is reasonable.
Wood God understands that since black gunpowder was born into the world, it means that its existence is needed in the world.
Everything is a double-edged sword. Poison used well can be a good medicine to save people.
You have only seen the killing aspect of black powder, but not its other uses.
It can be used in wars, and at the same time, it can also terminate wars or even prevent wars.
In such troubled times, your kind and compassionate heart will not only harm yourself, but also those around you.
Throughout the ages, those who have achieved great things have all been courageous and resolute, with a heart as solid as stone.
You are the one who wants to fight the Lord of Heaven. If you don’t have a heart of stone, how can you face the Lord of Heaven?”
The old storyteller continued: "The Ghost King is right. The catastrophe has just arrived, and the real war has not yet begun.
The road to defeating the sky will be very difficult, and many people will die in front of you, including those close friends around you.
Ye Xiaozi, you have a universal heart, which is your advantage and a prerequisite for you to become the savior of the three worlds.
But a universal heart cannot be the basis for how you deal with things in the future.
Just as the Ghost King said, if you want to stir up trouble in the Three Realms and break out of the curse of seven generations of lovers, you must be tough when you should be tough."
Ye Xiaochuan was silent for a long time, thinking and feeling.
The knowledge and experience of the two people in front of me are second to none in the Three Realms.
The two of them taught themselves personally, and Ye Xiaochuan naturally had to understand it carefully.
It's just that the world is easy to change and the nature is hard to change. Ye Xiaochuan's universal heart is innate and cannot be changed easily.
After a long time, Ye Xiaochuan nodded gently and said: "I understand. In the future, before I deal with problems, I must think rationally and not be overly emotional.
By the way, senior, you said earlier that the core of resolving the curse of the Seventh Generation Resentment lies in me, but do you know if there is a specific method?"
The old storyteller's eyes flashed and he said: "Mu Shen did not directly comment on this matter back then, but he left a mystery. Over the past hundreds of thousands of years, the heads of the Shou Ling clan have thought about this issue for generations, and finally saw through Mu Shen's plan.
