The news that Bai Yuqi casually revealed "inadvertently" made the Tang monarchs and ministers who were originally worried about the mutation of locusts couldn't help but be excited, and even faintly looked forward to it.

Especially Li Shimin, with the imperial merits of the first emperor through the ages, it is not bad to ascend to the upper realm with the one-star true spirit.

But if you can be like the ancient ancestors, with your own immortal and indestructible strong body, step through the void and fly to the upper realm to become a celestial, wouldn't it be more beautiful to become a god directly

Okay, Bai Yuqi won't tell them to think too much, but he won't take the initiative to puncture their good hopes, people still have to have dreams, in case they come true

After all, according to the current increase rate of [Arcane Particles] concentration, no one dares to say what changes will occur in the future, after all, now the Datang time and space have been changed by his demons and have a tendency to develop towards the high-martial world.

At the same time, he instructed the disciples of the Wuji Sect led by Qin Qiong to collect the corpses of the sickle giant locusts on the ground and send them to the alchemy workshop in the Ku'an Industrial Zone, so that the alchemy apprentices of the alchemy workshop could dissect the Ao Jing out of it for him to be useful.

As for the corpse, it is naturally used to refine various alchemy potions.

Or it can be processed into a higher level of "Heavenly Locust Longevity Pill, Emperor Locust Life Continuation Pill" and other elixirs.

After all, although the corpse of the Scythe Giant Locust had been taken out of the Arcane Crystal, the concentration of [Arcanon Particles] contained in it was still much higher than that of the outside space.

As a result, both the body fluids of the sickle locusts and their nutrient-rich muscles can be used as materials for refining alchemical potions and processing alchemical products.

Among other things, the Scythe Locust contains a highly concentrated [Arcanon Particle] transparent body fluid, which is their "blood", which can be used as an additive for alchemy potions, and can also be used as a concoction agent for transcribing [Spell Scroll] Arcanon ink.

The Arcanon Ink, which is blended with the blood of the Scythe Locust, is enough to increase the power and effect of the low-level spell scrolls by 10% to 20%.

Prior to this, the small number of scrolls produced by the [Wuji Gate] were all completed by artificial energy injection by the disciples of the Wuji Gate who had cultivated mana.

And with the Arcanon Ink rich in [Arcane Particles], the consumption of the disciples of the Wuji Sect can be greatly reduced, thereby increasing the production of spell scrolls!

Although they have not yet fully evolved into arcane beasts, these sickle giant locusts actually have certain arcane characteristics.

And in the arcane civilization, using the blood of the arcane beast to concoct the arcane ink to transcribe the spell scroll is only the most basic use of the arcane beast's biological materials!

As for the dragon guards under Li Shimin's command, Bai Yuqi did not let them be idle, and ordered them to carry the "Purple Qi Donglai Sacred Cow Stone" enshrined in the Li Clan's temple to the dragon head plain in the northeast of Taiji Palace.

Now that the reason for the attack of the sickle giant locust on the Taiji Imperial Capital has been found.

Bai Yuqi plans to take advantage of their moth-fighting properties to set a trap to lure them over and avoid posing a threat to the people in the city.

Longshou Plain, northeast of the old city of Chang'an, is composed of a loess plateau on higher ground, which belongs to the higher altitude area on the Guanzhong Plain, and Bai Yuqi intends to build a "magic tower" trap here.

Since it is a trap, it is naturally indispensable to bait, and the "Purple Qi Donglai Divine Cow Stone" that he gave him an arcane fire has become the best target.

The scythe locusts that have been infected by the [Arcane Particles] have produced mutations, and although they have changed a lot in size and appearance, the disadvantages of the lower creatures have not caused them to turn on their minds, so they still just follow their instincts.

This allowed Bai Yuqi to completely change the soup without changing the medicine, and upgrade the locust extermination device originally installed on the thunderstorm chariot to destroy these evolved giant locusts!

Choosing the highest loess plateau, Bai Yuqi waved his hand to pull up a cylindrical building from the ground.

The altitude of the Dragon Shouyuan itself is as high as more than 400 meters, and under Bai Yuqi's full urging of the earth system spell, this round tower that has been applied to [solidify rock mass] and [steel lithography] is like a hollow chimney that continues to stretch high into the air.

And the underground part also continues to go deep into the ground as the foundation, like a needle piercing the sea god on the loess plateau!

After the round tower reaches a height of 120 meters, it basically reaches the limit of the strength of the tower body reinforced by spells, and no matter how high it is, I am afraid that there will be a danger of breaking and toppling.

After shaping the body of the tower, Bai Yuqi instructed the disciples of [Tiangongmen] to install the war crossbows secretly developed by the ordnance workshop in batches, and installed a whole circle on the upper part of the tower to form an "air defense battery"!

Then the "Purple Qi from the East Divine Cow Stone" was installed on the top of the tower, and a high-level [Daylight Technique] was released on the Divine Cow Stone, making the tower incarnate into a bright lighthouse, which looked extremely dazzling in the gradually dimming night.

The Wuji Sect disciple with a strong bow in his hand waited with Bai Yuqi on the top of the tower.

A large number of dragoons were stationed in the tower, responsible for controlling the steam crossbows that served as anti-aircraft guns.

Although this thing is still a concept product with very poor stability, it is no problem to use it as a fixed turret on the tower.

It is not so prone to failure as long as it is not subject to turbulence, and in order to prevent the failure of the crossbow powered by a steam engine.

Bai Yuqi paired each crossbow with a shooter, an ammunition man, a turret turner, and a steam boiler and troubleshooter to form a combat team.

A large number of dragoons were like worker ants, carrying boxes of crossbow ammunition boxes into the tower through tunnels hidden below the surface of the loess plateau.

At the same time, the [Tiangongmen] military workshop in the Taiji Imperial City is also working at full speed to manufacture crossbow arrows to ensure the supply of ammunition for these big killing weapons.

Bai Yuqi, who was sitting on the back of the "Purple Qi from the East Divine Cow Stone" with his eyes closed, sensed a dense buzzing tremor coming from the night sky.

He opened his eyes and pressed his hand between the giant scimitar-like horns of the sacred cow stone, energizing the arcane fire above its head.

As a result, the arcane fire, which had grown to the size of a basketball through absorbing the arcane energy during this period of time, swelled into a blazing purple fireball the size of a round tabletop!

Almost all the disciples of the Wuji Sect who had cultivated the [Meditation] Foundation Building Technique felt the "aura" in the surrounding space, and suddenly it skyrocketed dozens of times!

And the locust tide attracted by the strong light of the [Daylight Technique] also accelerated its flight speed at the same time as this wave of arcane energy fluctuations erupted, and in the background of the dark sky of the night, a shadow like a dark cloud in the distance, buzzed and trembled, and rushed madly in the direction of the tower!
