Chapter 351: Chapter 352: Baring Fangs

Lin Qian gazed deeply at the distant Emperor Qin’s Army and the City Defense Army, then let out a light chuckle, and suddenly leapt to the side, plunging headfirst into the turbulent Shunshui River.

The roaring river that swept forward was unable to shake Lin Qian in its current, the water washing over his body as if striking a wall.

Lin Qian landed straight at the bottom of the river, where a water breathing Soul Device had already appeared in his hand, now fitted to his face.

With the strength of his physical body, he could hold his breath underwater for a month without any trouble, but why not enjoy the comfort if he could?

The Shunshui River was extremely deep and wide, and after Lin Qian submerged to the riverbed, unless it was a powerful being from the Awakening Realm who deliberately probed, nobody would know there was someone below.

But, to be on the safe side, Lin Qian still used a Soul Device to hide his aura, covering dozens of miles around him.

At the same time, Lin Qian summoned the male craftsmen of the Huaxia Empire and took out the materials needed for the installation of the Soul Power cannons.

“Greetings, Your Majesty!” Seeing a group of people kneel down before him, Lin Qian hurriedly waved them off, “Stand up, stand up, there’s no time for all this bowing, set up the Soul Power cannon platform immediately.”

“Yes!”

Hearing Lin Qian’s command, the craftsmen quickly got to their feet, each wearing a water breathing Soul Device, emitting a string of bubbles as they began to busily engage in their work.

The bubbles exhaled by their water breathing Soul Devices burst instantly upon touching the light membrane above, unable to ascend.

This underwater light membrane originated from a long stick with two golden hoops that Lin Qian had inserted into the riverbed beside him, emitting a golden aura that calmed the tens of miles of river water here, unlike the turbulent currents outside.

The Sea-Calming Divine Needle!

Lin Qian couldn’t operate the Soul Device now, simply because it was of too high a rank, and his current Realm couldn’t handle it.

Just placing it here, it automatically isolated such a large area, and furthermore, it was sealed by his War Beast commander.

This War Beast commander, his status was by no means inferior to Ao Zun.

The craftsmen continued to hustle with the underwater Soul Power cannon platform arrangements, while Lin Qian gently stroked the Sea-Calming Divine Needle. This item had been part of a huge reward bundle that cost ninety thousand Huaxia Coins in a past life’s game.

This bundle not only contained the Sea-Calming Divine Needle but also a top-tier War Beast commander, along with a host of associated items and materials.

After this bundle was released, plenty of people spent money to try their luck in the lottery, with some fortunate ones getting it with just a hundred Huaxia Coins.

As for someone unlucky like Lin Qian, he had to spend a whopping ninety thousand Huaxia Coins before he successfully obtained this War Beast commander.

In the Huaxia Empire, two figures were battling in mid-air, when suddenly one was blasted away, taking quite some time to stabilize.

The person blasted away was none other than Guan Yi, known for his strength.

“Hehehe, to think that the little Emperor would take away my old Sun’s staff to use, hoping to gain an advantage. Naive child, you’re far from the mark!”

Guan Yi looked helplessly at the figure, shrugging helplessly, “You’re without your staff, and I’m not using my Crescent Blade, it’s fair. Who wins and who loses if we really fought, we still don’t know yet.”

“Hahaha, but now you’ve indeed lost. If you’re not convinced, we can have another go once the little Emperor returns my staff to me.”

“If you got your staff back, then there’d be no point in fighting. Even if I wouldn’t lose, it would still be a tough fight,” Guan Yi shook his head vehemently, gave a salute to the other party, and turned away to leave.

The figure giggled and performed a somersault before fleeing into the distance.

At this moment, the Huaxia Empire was brimming with vitality, and all sorts of things could happen, just like the situation that had just occurred.

At the bottom of the river, this area had been fitted with ten Soul Power Cannons; the number was not large, and the distance between each was quite far.

But this was so, entirely because these Soul Power Cannons were far more lethal compared to those built by the Four Directions World.

If they were built too close to each other, they would interfere with each other and their power would be significantly reduced.

There were many types of Soul Power Cannons. For example, the Molten Rock Cannons from the Four Directions World could be densely constructed without affecting each other. However, the Molten Rock Cannons also had a drawback–that was, once fired, it took a long time before they could attack again.

In comparison, Light Power Cannons, whether in terms of attack speed or cooldown time, were much faster than the Molten Rock Cannons, only their power was not as great.

The Soul Power Cannons that Lin Qian was currently arranging were named Heavy Cannons. With an extremely long cooldown time, they could fire consecutively twice, but after firing, they could not be used again for three days. And though the trajectory was very slow, their power was tremendously strong.

“Next place!” Immediately afterward, Lin Qian pulled the Divine Sea Anchor up from the ground, his hands quivering non-stop as he held it.

Even though the Divine Sea Anchor was sealed by a War Beast Commander that came out of the same grand package, Lin Qian still had to shout out loud.

“Heavy!”

Holding the Divine Sea Anchor, he walked down the river channel to another area, where Lin Qian once again placed the long rod firmly in the ground, allowing the male artisan to continue setting up the Heavy Cannons.

As for the previously successfully arranged Heavy Cannons, after losing the protection formed by the Divine Sea Anchor, they began to face the river’s currents on their own.

But each Heavy Cannon stood firm as a mountain, no matter how violently the waters roared against them, they remained silent in their position.

The dark muzzles of the cannons pointed at the surface of the lake, ready to fire a deadly shot as soon as Lin Qian gave the command.

The male artisan was quick at arranging the Heavy Cannons, managing to arrange forty in just one day.

After a total of five hundred Heavy Cannons were laid down at the bottom of the Shunshui River, Lin Qian quietly emerged from the water and moved closer to the gathering place of Emperor Qin’s Army, discovering they had amassed an impressive force of one hundred fifty million.

Witnessing this, Lin Qian silently retreated into the dense forest near the Shunshui River and continued to lead the male artisan to set up Soul Power Cannons in the forest–this time, arranging Molten Rock Cannons!

If it were in a past life’s game, Lin Qian would definitely not set up cannons so easily near an enemy’s gathering troops.

Other finished works would certainly have Swift Soldiers patrolling around, unless troops were deployed to distract the enemy’s attention, and then covertly swift construction was undertaken to complete the setup.

It wouldn’t be as easy as now, with the enemy not even bothering to scout the surroundings.

Perhaps in their eyes, within Emperor Qin’s territory, it was impossible for anyone to infiltrate and set up weapons of war right under their noses.

The first Light Power Cannon was completed, its base glowing with the light of an Array, and the cannon slowly moved, making a dull sound.

Click-click.

A crisp sound echoed, the moving cannon barrel stopping, its deep muzzle aiming in the direction of Emperor Qin’s Army.

Unbeknownst to Emperor Qin’s Army, the Huaxia Empire, which they had not taken seriously, was already baring its fangs at them.
