Chapter 755: Chapter 242: Void Tidal Sound
Forming an army…
Attaching to the existing Cultivation Kingdom, this can be easily resolved.
Ning Zhuo needed to start from scratch to form an army, and the cost would be extremely high. He had to solve issues like military enlistment, discipline, authority, system, and morale on his own.
“Even if I expend a lot of effort to build an army, the maintenance costs afterward would be enormous.”
“It’s not suitable for me.”
“So a better choice is to focus on elite puppets, like Yuan Dasheng and Mengye Tiger.”
The Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng has become noticeably outdated.
The main purpose of this mechanical puppet’s design was actually to assist Ning Zhuo in cultivating the Demon-infused Bloodline Technique. Its outstanding defense was the result of Ning Zhuo sparing no expense, drawing from various sources, and using a large batch of precious treasure materials to assemble it.
If we were to truly evaluate its design, it would only be mid to lower tier.
In the battlefield of Liangzhu Country, the Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng became a target, struggling to attract fire, almost ending up scrapped every time it entered battle, earning the reputation of high-level cannon fodder.
No choice, in battles of this magnitude, the materials of Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng also appeared weak.
As for the Shadow Blade·Night Tiger, it has established numerous battle achievements. After all, its design scheme was far superior to that of Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng.
The different inherent positioning also made it easier for it to establish battle achievements.
However, its downside is that its materials are not up to par.
“I need to redesign the mechanical body for Yuan Dasheng. This time, I must think carefully, striving to bring the design to an excellent standard.”
“The design for Mengye Tiger can be retained. This time, with the opportunity for a major repair after being scrapped, we can replace it with better materials and reconstruct it.”
Ning Zhuo quickly finalized his plans for Yuan Dasheng and Mengye Tiger.
Although he had saved many battle achievements and hadn’t exchanged them, he still had a lot of precious materials on hand.
The reason for this was the Heavenly Ghost.
Under the influence of Buddha Thoughts, the Heavenly Ghost voluntarily gave almost all of his possessions to Ning Zhuo.
This powerful Ghost Cultivator True Monarch had long been renowned across various countries and had an extremely rich possession.
Even though the main materials were related to the Ghost Path and Soul Cultivation, there were still quite a lot of conventional treasure materials that reached the Nascent Soul Level, which could be used on Yuan Dasheng and Mengye Tiger.
But even with a set plan, Ning Zhuo quickly repaired the Heavy Blood Ape·Dasheng and Shadow Blade·Night Tiger according to their original appearance.
With the Nascent Soul Level mechanical platform, even if these two mechanical puppets were scrapped, they could still be rapidly rebuilt.
After experiencing the war in Liangzhu Country, Ning Zhuo has undergone significant changes. Especially in terms of being vigilant in times of peace.
He would rather spend a little more money to quickly repair Yuan Dasheng and Mengye Tiger, ensuring his combat power.
Who knows whether an accident would happen the next moment, and whether this accident would be fatal?
Having repaired these two battle puppets, Ning Zhuo now has two Golden Core Level combat powers by his side, and he felt a lot more secure.
As for those ordinary mechanical puppets, Ning Zhuo did not make them.
His military position should soon be revoked, and the weaving of the mechanical army itself would also be canceled.
In this context, if he were to deploy so many mechanical puppets, it would be like a Beast Taming Cultivator summoning a large batch of demon pets.
Ning Zhuo’s Heroic Return Skill had become challenging to be effective.
So even if these mechanical puppets were used as cannon fodder, it would become a matter with very low cost-effectiveness.
“Next, there is no large-scale war.”
“When facing conflicts, the primary focus is individual strong opponents. These mechanical puppets are too ordinary; if released, they can easily be overwhelmed by stronger opponents and subjected to decapitation tactics against me.”
“Aside from distracting my Divine Sense from controlling these puppets, they have almost no battle prowess.”
Being practical and flexible, Ning Zhuo immediately adjusted the direction of his mechanical creations, shifting from the previous scale and quantity to producing elite individuals, aiming to achieve a higher standard in quality.
Ning Zhuo placed his next focus on the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor.
This Magic Treasure Level mechanical battle armor had performed quite impressively in the major battles—Ning Zhuo used it to withstand Xiang Yue multiple times.
The upper body of the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor was already battered with layers of cracks and needed meticulous repair.
“With my abilities alone, it’s impossible to repair the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor. Fortunately, I have the mechanical platform.”
Ning Zhuo’s cultivation level was too weak; just at the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was challenging to do anything with such low mana on Nascent Soul Level treasure items.
The mechanical platform allowed him to reach beyond his usual abilities.
This is the Cultivation Hundred Skills!
As of today, the entire Cultivation World is thriving, and the intricacy of the Cultivation Hundred Skills allows cultivators to transcend cultivation levels and sect types, achieving what they couldn’t do alone otherwise.
“Repairing the upper body of the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor shouldn’t be an issue.”
“But its lower body needs a better complete repair!”
The current lower body of the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor was merely a shoddy placeholder made by Ning Zhuo.
It was also Ning Zhuo’s luck.
In the previous battle, this weakness was not noticed. Most cultivators were entangled in their own chaotic skirmishes, unable to pay attention to others.
Ning Zhuo also chose a very opportune time to enter the battlefield, never drawing too much targeted attention.
After joining forces with Mu Lan and Liu Guanzhang, he also maintained a localized advantage for a long period.
The Mechanical Dragon shuttled through the void.
“What’s that sound?” Sun Lingtong suddenly startled and hurriedly contacted Ning Zhuo.
Ning Zhuo was buried in work at the mechanical platform, meticulously repairing the Hundred-Armed Arhat Armor. Upon receiving the thought transmission, he immediately looked up.
