The mission of the visiting delegation is over.

Started to return to Wancheng Kingdom.

The Royal Airliner slowly took off.

Ten thousand feet... twenty thousand feet... fifty thousand feet... one hundred thousand feet.

The Royal Airliner stabilized at an altitude of 100,000 feet, stopped rising, and began to accelerate, flying eastward.

Sitting next to the window in the luxuriously decorated cabin, Ye Kong stared at the clouds outside, the earth below, and the sun above through the window, silently.

One hundred thousand feet high in the sky, the light is strong and the air is cold and thin. Even an immortal like him has never reached this height.

These mortals arrived with the help of artifacts.

The clouds outside the window were retreating rapidly, the sharp whistling sound, and the vibration of the machine body increased significantly.

The speed quickly reached three times the speed of sound and remained there.

This speed made Ye Kong secretly stunned. Even with his cultivation level, he could fly at this speed, but he had to put on the air-control suit and hold on for a while at most.

If you only rely on flying flying swords and an unprotected body, facing huge air resistance, it will be difficult to achieve not only three times the speed of sound, but even one time the speed of sound.

And three times the speed of sound is not the limit for the operators on this Royal Airliner.

They can continue to pull the Royal Airliner higher and fly faster.

"Since mortals can achieve this level, what's the use of us becoming immortals?"

Ye Kong sighed secretly, feeling an indescribable sense of frustration in his heart.

"It's useless. Immortals can live for hundreds of years, but most mortals only have a lifespan of a few hundred years." said the old man in his mind.

"What's the use of wasting hundreds of years? Compared with these mortals, we immortals really live like dogs." Ye Kong laughed at himself. Compared with these mortals, the only advantage of immortals is that they can live more. Live in a cave for hundreds of years, right?

"Don't think so!"

The old man in his mind said: "Mortals have mortal flaws. Most of them have weak bodies and short lifespans. They are indeed like ants in the eyes of immortals. But mortals have found a way to change their destiny, developed their minds, and opened up a path for artifacts." On the road of application, you can be on par with the immortals.”

"Compared with mortals, immortals have more advantages. Immortals have longer lifespans, more powerful abilities, and more potentials that can be tapped. Compared with mortals, immortals not only have a higher starting point, but also have a brighter future. Don’t be afraid of the benefits of mortal artifacts.”

"Today's immortals seem to be at a slight disadvantage in front of these mortals, but there is no need to be afraid or worried. You must firmly believe this: the benefits of artifacts are only external forces, and they are ultimately not as good as your own energy."

"At the moment, it is better to adjust your mentality, work hard to think of countermeasures, and vigorously explore the strengths of the immortals themselves... Only in this way, immortals and mortals will return to a new balance."

Ye Kong nodded.

The old man is right. Nowadays, there is a serious imbalance in the balance of power between immortals and mortals. Immortals must find a breakthrough point, combine their own advantages, and find ways to enhance their own strength, so that the balance of strength can tip back to the side of immortals. !

but……

During the next ten days of visits and inspections, Ye Kong's confidence and thoughts were completely shattered and numbed by the excitement.

It slowly turned into despair.

There is no hope at all.

So what did he see in these ten days?

The first stop was Zhenlin City, where he stayed for three days.

We visited three places in total.

They are the Yulingjian Refining Factory, Lingyuan Cannon Manufacturing Factory and Daxian Academy.

He owns a Spirit Control Sword. It is well-made, beautiful in shape, and powerful. He can't put it down and considers it to be of high value.

But in the flow-type production factory of Yulingjian, he was shocked and shocked when he saw piles of Yulingjian on the assembly line, like kitchen knives, being mass-produced at a rate of 3,000 pieces per day. Shocking.

When he asked the person in charge of the factory how much the production cost of those spirit swords was, the person in charge simply said "three parts of the materials used to make the swords", which made him discover that the true manufacturing cost of each spirit sword may be even more. Less than 10,000 spirit coins.

But the elders or disciples on Guanglei Mountain spent more than 100,000 spiritual coins to buy one, and they thought they were getting a big deal.

In the Lingyuan Cannon Manufacturing Factory, Ye Kong, who was allowed to visit the factory, was very excited at first, thinking that he could spy on the core secrets of Wancheng Kingdom and find the key to defeat Wancheng Kingdom.

But the visit to the Lingyuan Cannon Manufacturing Factory gave him an even greater blow.

Even if he fully understands why the Lingyuan Cannon manufactured by Wancheng Kingdom is more powerful, more accurate, has a longer firing life, has better quality, and has lower manufacturing cost.

Moreover, he had a clear view of the manufacturing process of the Super Spiritual Energy Cannon, and he suddenly realized it.

He was even more desperate.

Because with Guangleishan's technical strength, it is impossible to make the caliber, weight, and barrel of the Lingyuan cannon exactly the same, so that the tolerance of each cannon's parts is no more than a hair.

The mass difference of each shell should not exceed 0.1 grams.

And on the artillery optical sighting device, it is within the effective killing range, which refers to the degree of hitting that... It is impossible for Guanglei Mountain to manufacture this optical sighting device.

Not to mention, the complex charging-energy-storing-energy-releasing device on the super spirit cannon, as well as the black technology-like control device for firing consecutive shots in ten thousandths of a second... let Guangleishan do it , I am afraid that precise control of one hundredth of a second cannot be achieved.

Therefore, even if Guangleishan knew the manufacturing principle of the Super Spiritual Cannon clearly, he did not have the strength to create it.

Only the kingdom of ten thousand chariots can create it.

Daxian Academy.

The third place to visit was Daxian Academy. Ye Kong had heard about it for a long time and wanted to go in and experience it.

So he visited Daxian College for a day, sat with students, listened to two classes, a lecture and an extracurricular practical activity.

And then... feeling ashamed.

I feel so ashamed and inferior that I want to find a crack in the ground to crawl in!

Compared with this high-level training college with a free style of study, active students, and dedicated teachers, the college he founded at the outer gate of Guanglei Mountain is simply a cat that cannot be transformed into a dog, with only its form and no spirit. The teacher has reservations about teaching, and the students are very self-respecting and don’t like to discuss... But he feels that the establishment is quite good.

Now, in front of Daxian College, which has a truly open style of study, responsible teachers, and loves to discuss and share, his Guanglei Mountain Training College is not even as good as Pheasant College!

What shocked him even more was that in the past few years, in this Daxian Academy, more than two students had achieved the breakthrough of becoming immortals every year. There were also many teachers, research professors and guest lecturers who were all immortals at the solid core stage.

He estimated that the number of immortals in the Daxian Academy may exceed 50.

Coupled with the tens of thousands of students, this Daxian Academy alone can rival Guanglei Mountain.

Currently, there are 11 training colleges in Wancheng Country, and this number may increase to 30 in the future.

After the inspection in Zhenlin City, in the remaining seven days, he took a high-speed psychic locomotive and visited Jinyan City, Baihu City, Red Crystal City and the rather confidential Tianyang City.

In these seven days, Ye Kong watched Jinyan City's Yaojin Stone Smelter with an annual output of one million tons of Yaojin, labor-intensive textile factories, Baihu City's fishery, salt industry, fully mechanized agriculture, and Red Crystal City's machinery manufacturing industry... Completely numb, his stiff expression, unwavering eyes, and lukewarm words were not the calmness he pretended to be.

But to cover up the deep powerlessness in my heart.

Wancheng Kingdom is a hundred times stronger than Guanglei Mountain, there is no exaggeration in the slightest.

In addition to cultivating hundreds of immortals with tens of thousands of internal energy and abundant spiritual veins, what else can Guanglei Mountain have to offer to compete with Wancheng Kingdom?

When he came to Tianyang City again, he saw the industrial flow-style alchemy factory in the constant-temperature factory in the cave. Ye Kong's throat felt so sweet that he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

Nearly one million elixirs are made every day (after improving the technology, the efficiency has been improved than before), which is enough to meet the needs of monks across the country.

There are also three production lines for elixirs that are about to be put into production. Once they are at full capacity, the daily output of elixirs will be more than 100,000.

How to fight?

How can we fight?

These mortals, even immortals like us, are about to be mass-produced, so how can we fight with them?

Now he couldn't even find an excuse to comfort and hypnotize himself. He was desperate. Looking at this alchemy production line, Ye Kong felt only despair.

I didn’t even think about picking up the camera and taking a few photos.

I stumbled a bit while walking, as if my soul had left the body.

After finally calming down, I asked the old man in my mind what to do?

The old man was silent for a long time, then sighed and said: "This is the rolling wheel of history. Its power is irreversible. You can only follow it. If you stand in the way, you will only be shattered into pieces... Grandpa, I was once a great man who dominated the world. If I face this, Waiting for the wheel, you can only retreat and avoid it..."

this……

Ye Kong's head dropped heavily.

A look of frustration.

Isn’t there even anything the old man can do?

The next stop he will visit is the capital city of Wancheng Kingdom. He may meet with the leader of Wancheng Kingdom, a legendary figure who is two years younger than him. By then, he may be able to...

"No!"

The old man in his mind noticed his intention and said: "This impulsive approach is useless. The stability of Wancheng Kingdom does not depend on people, but on the system. If the system is not bad, you will succeed. Wancheng Kingdom will succeed." The chaos will not last long, but will accelerate the demise of Guanglei Mountain."

"Then how can we save Guangleishan?!"

Ye Kong yelled in despair. He really couldn't think of any way to prevent the defeat of his sect, unless he was the spiritual saint who was said to be able to "annihilate thousands of miles of mountains and rivers with one punch".

"Go to the capital city to meet with the senior officials of the Wancheng Kingdom and test their true thoughts. Although the Wancheng Kingdom is prone to expansion, there are many mergers and few deaths. There is no need to be so pessimistic."

The old man comforted him.

"All right……"

Ye Kong shook his head. Since the two sides haven't completely broken up and started fighting, it seems that this is the only way.

Alas, the feeling of being a weakling is so painful.
