Within the Qiankun Shield space, the white flames seemed to have begun to become significantly weaker than before, at least weakening to about a quarter of their original level. In order to purify this Nedan of the Tenth Order Peak Demon Ape in the true sense, most of the Divine Flame firepower that had made Zhang Fan feel a little relieved was consumed. But Zhang Fan is not too worried about this. The ability to develop the strength of civilization at the level of Moore's Law in the era of the fourth or fifth industrial revolution in the true sense of the word can be fully restored in about four years at most.

Through the previous battle, Zhang Fan also had some reflections and even bolder thoughts: Obviously, in the battle between real monks, it is extremely rare to have a big battle of a few days and nights or hundreds of rounds. There are more cases of spikes and spikes. Therefore, strength in the true sense of the word is largely determined by the output power rather than the total energy. If a monk could only possess energy comparable to one Mahayana peak blow, his status must be higher than that of an ordinary god-transforming monk who could launch countless god-level peak strikes. Because even if the former needs to defeat the opponent's multiple avatar opponents with only a small effort, it can also save consumption by controlling the output power, which may not be able to meet the demand...

Soon after starting the experiment and testing, Zhang Fan suddenly discovered that the ability to output exercises was not only limited by the characteristics of the artificial inner pill itself. It is also very related to one's physical strength, meridian range, and mental strength. If you don't rely on yourself to output exercises without the help of foreign objects, and send out an attack power that can threaten your current level of protection, it is likely to be a ceiling. In other words: the strength standard of the Boundless Continent's deep area, the strength of the second layer or so in the early stage of refining the Void Realm is likely to be based on a ceiling based on his current conditions. Without using the Divine Thunder Cannon means, his current highest development potential should still not be able to deal with the protagonist-level powerhouse of the legendary God Transformation Peak Realm, but this does not seem to be a big problem for Zhang Fan. With that kind of strength, there is no doubt that he has other means to make up for and improve his spiritual power.

Therefore, after determining these, Zhang Fan reprocessed and manufactured a new artificial inner pill according to the new principles and standards, according to the estimated target performance: because he was limited by the output bottleneck, he should still have at most his own strength in the second layer of the early stage of refining the void realm, although the continuous combat power is not as strong as the usual monks, but in the case of overdraft, it can support at least 10,000 full attacks, which is enough to deal with the vast majority of situations, in this case, it should be able to save four-fifths of the time and even five-sixths of the demon beast inner pill materials。 In this way, the expectation of the time of one's retreat will be greatly shortened compared to before, maybe it will not take hundreds of years, only one hundred and twenty or thirty years will be able to make a difference in one's strength?

However, Zhang Fan was reluctant to leave the customs too early, especially since the disturbance he had made before was not small, and it was probably impossible to calm down some things in just a few months to a year. Therefore, in the subsequent time of Qiankun Dun, Zhang Fan still spent some more time with Ye Ruyun, Ye Ruyue, Sun Meier and some other juniors, teaching him a lot of his own experience in confrontation over the years and even unique exercises and tactics. Some of the experiences and even experiences that the women had in the mundane world are also lacking in Zhang Fan. Just like the normal rhythm, about 300 years is somewhat accustomed to Zhang Fan and others today, so it doesn't seem very long.

In this short period of time, relying on many classics and even super-quality spiritual liquids in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, not relying on artificial inner pills but only relying on their own cultivation, several women have also become strong people with the strength of Jindan Jipin, while the other six juniors have entered the realm of Jindan. Under the addition of Zhang Fan's series of unique exercises and even skills, such as using artificial inner pills to raise to the level of the peak of the Yuan Infant to the early stage of the transformation of gods, almost all of them have the ability to fight with the gods masters on this plane, especially those spirit fungi whose level has been raised to the second layer of the late stage of the lower realm of transformation gods. It was only after everyone had such strength that Zhang Fan was sure that when these people temporarily lived in seclusion in the territory of the Wanfa Sect and left him, they would be able to face many dangers alone.

"After leaving the customs, there are some people who can look good!" "Sun Mei'er's daughter Sun Qiao'er smiled a little excitedly when she was about to leave the customs.

Zhang Fan replied thoughtfully: "I'm still a little worried about the Xuanfa Sect's family, and it is impossible for their strength to change too much in a few years. If our previous incident caused some suspicion and retaliation, I fear that there is a crisis that the Central Holy City will not be able to deal with. So I'm going to go back and have a look and live there for ten years, when I really have a higher level of threat and a minimum of self-defense, and then my heart can be completely relaxed... ”

In all fairness, Zhang Fan actually had a general understanding of the speed of upgrading the strength of civilization for a long time, and after entering the modern era, the speed of at least 1,000 times in a hundred years was not much inferior to the cultivation progress of a mediocre monk, and after entering the new era, it was already comparable to some less perverted protagonist-level geniuses. If it weren't for the Qiankun Shield, Zhang Fan himself might not be sure to be on par with it.

In this way, after leaving the customs, Zhang Fan did not rush in the direction of the Wanfa Sect first, but hurried in the direction of the central holy city in the west at a speed of sound of six or seven thousand times, but in about a year, he crossed a distance of 100 billion miles. Because he didn't deliberately avoid some dangerous areas, and also solved some demon beasts at the peak level of the early tenth order or the ninth order by the way, for Zhang Fan today, these existences can almost be easily destroyed and included in the Qiankun Shield with a raise of his hand, and he doesn't even need to stop specifically. Most of the other demon beasts either couldn't detect Zhang Fan and the others who were flying at high speed at all, or they began to understand that they couldn't be provoked after feeling that speed.

When Zhang Fan approached the previous Central Holy City, he found that the size of the fleet in the Central Holy City Civilization District had only increased by about twice as much as before, and there were only about 4,000 50-million-ton warships. This shows that during the period after his departure, the entire Central Holy City Civilization Zone has not been transferred to the track of comprehensive combat readiness, and many combat readiness is still only the responsibility of the original military industry department.

According to Zhang Fan's general estimates, the proportion of military spending in the economy of the entire civilization region should still be only about one-sixth of the size of the economy as before. This may be a great burden for the twentieth-century society on the Earth plane, but it is not enough for the current civilization area near the Central Holy City.

"The Divine Lord is back!" When Zhang Fan covered the core area within a radius of nearly 100,000 li with his unique spiritual power and intent, many people felt excited.

In this regard, Zhang Fan said disapprerovingly: "If I am another strong opponent who is very good at illusion and spiritual power, I am afraid that you will be destroyed unknowingly this time, right? Have you forgotten my instructions when I left?"

"God, we ... In the network and ocean of thoughts, countless voices replied with some shame.

Zhang Fan was silent for a long time, and after roughly understanding some things in the civilized area near the Central Holy City with his divine sense, he said: "I haven't been away for a long time, it's only four or five years, just the people in the research institute have done a lot of work and efforts, but they are still a little too indulged in the happiness of material life, and the proportion of military expenditure is still a little too low in this extraordinary period." From now on, I demand that the proportion of military investment in the core combat readiness area of the Central Holy City be increased to 80 percent of the economic volume, that is, the military investment of the entire civilization zone will reach one-third of the total economic output, that is, it will be transferred to a state of general warfare, so as to improve its own strength as quickly as possible. Only in this way may you be safer before I leave, but now let me see how strong you are. ”

In this way, not long after Zhang Fan's return, another confrontation drill was launched again not too far from the core area of the Central Holy City.

In just a few years, the size of the fleet has doubled, and the style has not fundamentally changed. However, in the perception confrontation before the formal test, Zhang Fan clearly felt that the detection ability of the entire fleet was obviously much better than before, and it was not only possible to use electronic detection methods to find targets, but also the pulse spirit wave and passive analysis and reconnaissance capabilities had also been unprecedentedly improved. When targeting some opponents who are good at stealth, it can also effectively use multi-modal pulse radio waves to create special environmental impacts and storms, so as to perceive suspicious areas. Behind this is the fact that the entire fleet is finally starting to pay attention to the perceptual benefits of computational analytics. More than 4,000 warships can effectively realize networked perception when only one security officer is arranged as a controller at most, according to Zhang Fan's rough estimate: the ability to resist illusion and stealth may have reached the third level in the late stage of the lower realm of the Ten Thousand Law Sect's god standards, although there is still a certain distance from safety, but the way can be regarded as the right one.

In the face of the actual combat situation in the Fantasy Realm, the entire fleet was no longer as impulsive and blind as in the past, and even the formation was overly dispersed when attacking, but concentrated as much as possible to avoid the interference of possible illusions or other strange spells. When bombarding is launched, according to the unique procedural system, the whole ship will be concentrated on the attack only when the threat confirmation rate exceeds 50 percent.

What made Zhang Fan a little satisfied was that in terms of hull defense, the entire fleet began to really pay attention to the auxiliary protection of talisman defense and even other demon beast materials, and it no longer became very vulnerable in the face of even the most superficial thunder techniques as before.

Of course, whether it is offensive and defensive, mobile detection or comprehensive combat effectiveness, the entire fleet may be even less threatening to Zhang Fan at this time than it was a few years ago. However, the absolute strength has developed by leaps and bounds, at least a thousand times higher, and it can be compared to the comprehensive strength of the Xuanfa Sect around the five grades of the Transformation of the Gods or the comprehensive strength of the Ten Thousand Law Sect in the late stage of the Lower Realm of the Transformation of the Gods.

Therefore, Zhang Fancai decided to stay here for a while, and only chose to leave after the strength of the entire fleet was further improved.

It seems that as Zhang Fan had predicted, less than a year or so after his return, the strong enemy who came to crusade came. It was a master of the late stage of the Middle Realm of the Ten Thousand Law Sect, about the sixteenth layer of the Transformation God, who led at least more than a hundred Yuanying peak monks to approach in a huge formation, and it seemed that he also carried a lot of magic weapons for large-scale destruction. Obviously, he has long been familiar with the situation in this area, and he has made certain preparations for opponents of Zhang Fan's strength before.

Of course, Zhang Fan did not plan to start a defensive battle in the area around the core area of civilization, but directly intercepted the strong enemy when it approached a distance of about tens of millions of miles, and almost before those people could react, the seemingly magnificent strong enemy was wiped out in the blink of an eye.

About six years later, the second group of conquest troops from the Wanfa Sect approached with great momentum. This time, it was a "Ten Thousand Ghost God Lord" whose cultivation was roughly in the early stage of the Upper Realm of Transformation Gods, six early stage cultivators of the Upper Realm of Transformation Gods, and a huge lineup of more than 1,000 Yuanying masters who approached and planned to be ashamed.

However, even such a powerful formation was still vulnerable in front of Zhang Fan at this time. Under the bombardment of the seven long-prepared divine thunder cannons and the unprecedentedly strengthened Xingchen Jue and other series of ambushes, although it was not a single second, it also suffered a heavy blow in a very short time. Seven god-transforming powerhouses and even thousands of Yuanying Cultivators suffered annihilating blows before they could disperse and break through.

After two successive waves of expeditions fell one after another, the Ten Thousand Laws seemed to have changed their strategy, and after seven years. A Peak Realm Cultivator who was very good at illusion and invisibility quietly approached, trying to take away an ordinary mortal in the civilization area and learn something from the inside. However, over the years, the entire core civilization region has also been prepared for this threat. At this time, almost every person in the hundreds of millions of people established a dynamic networked reconnaissance method in their bodies, combined with a computing system with considerable computing power, and soon confirmed suspicious targets that had infiltrated the periphery. was killed again when Zhang Fan shot with all his might.

The three setbacks experienced in succession caused the Wanfa Sect to lose two masters of the peak realm of God Transformation one after another, six ordinary God Transformation powerhouses, and thousands of Yuan Infant Cultivators. Although a larger force can still be used, it seems that no one wants to fight here anymore.

Of course, Zhang Fan was still not at ease, and since he returned to the civilized area near the Central Holy City, he had been living for about forty years, until the size of the fleet here and even the means of attack were fundamentally different from the past, and there was only a big realm gap between him and his own strength, and he could deal with some decent god-transforming powerhouses alone, and he finally felt that it was time to leave.
