The theory of a round earth spread across the land of Fertility Continent at a crazy speed, and it took less than five days to spread to the middle of Fertility Continent and to the Xiaoyao faction.
"The 'Tianyuan Star' we've been looking for is actually under our feet? We actually live on a star?" Daoist Guanlanzi, the head teacher of the Xiaoyao Sect, looked at the information in his hand in amazement, with an expression of disbelief. So subversive!
Taoist Guanyun said: "Master, I was also shocked at first, but I think there is some truth to this statement. We have been observing the starry sky for so many years, looking for the legendary 366th star, but we have never found a trace.
If we say that the legendary Tianyuan star is under our feet, it is completely reasonable.
Although this thing is a bit unbelievable, after ruling out all the problems, this is the only possibility. "
Guanlanzi nodded as if knowing something, read the information in his hand carefully, and muttered to himself: "The diameter of the earth is 128,700 kilometers, including what is shown on the map, it is only one-tenth of the surface area of the entire Tianyuan star... …
Huh... If this statement is true, does it mean that the stars in the sky are all huge? So, where is the legendary fairy world? "
No one can answer this question.
After a while, Daoist Guanyun said: "Teacher, we blocked the Emerald Sea before and wanted to trap Xuanzhen Sect to death. But now it seems that it is not ideal. Should we start a war now? What about containing Qixia Country?"
Guanlanzi thought for a moment, then shook his head. "Difficult! The Qixia Kingdom...is in the west, beyond the green sea of death. Even if we want to attack, we can't do anything!
And if we attack from land, we have to penetrate several countries first, and even confront the Xuanzhen Sect head-on.
The location of Qixia Country...is really too safe!
Even if we can win, it will be a miserable victory. In the end, I'm afraid that the Xianyin sect in the east will get an advantage.
And don't look at Xuanzhen Sect's chaotic situation, but everything is under control. The fundamental power of Xuanzhen Sect has no influence at all! "
"Then just watch Qixia Kingdom develop?" Daoist Guanyun was a little anxious, "Master, if the theory of the roundness of the earth is true, then the future of Qixia Kingdom and the future of Xuanzhen Sect will be limitless. At that time..."
Guanlanzi sighed, and waved his hand to stop Taoist Guanyun from saying, "I understand what you said. But the sea is so vast, and the world is so big. If the Qixia Kingdom can rise, can't we!
Our foundation is stronger! Isn't the country of Langya also building steel warships? How is it? "
"This..." Daoist Guanyun's expression was a little strange.
"Could it be a failure?" Guanlanzi sat down, ready to drink some tea to calm down his shock.
"It can't be said to be a failure..." Daoist Guanyun smacked his lips and said with some hesitation, "It just needs to continue to work hard. They succeeded in making the artillery. Although they didn't make the steam turbine, they used the formation method Solved the power problem.
It's just that this first ironclad ship has some shortcomings.
First side salvo the other day and it turned out...the boat capsized. Because it was made of black iron, the boat sank soon after turning over. In the end, it took several Nascent Soul Stages to get it out. "
"Pfft..." Guanlanzi spewed out a mouthful of tea, "This iron-clad ship must be very heavy, how could it capsize?"
Daoist Guanyun spread his hands: "I don't know, the port of Langya Country is also in chaos now. But according to Ma Jianliang, the first navy commander of Langya Country, it may be because the ship is too small and the artillery is too powerful. Specifically, we are still looking for it."
Guanlanzi slowly put down the teacup, thought for a while and said, "Is there a way to get information from the Zhang family?"
"Many methods have been tried, but the Zhang family's secrecy measures are very good. We can only get some public information, or the Zhang family doesn't care. And the really important core technology is almost impossible to leak out.
But... But we got a piece of news that Lingwei Trading Company of Canglan Country has ordered six steam turbines from the Zhang family, and it seems that one of them is about to be delivered recently. And this steam turbine seems to be handed over to the Canglan Country's military.
This is the only known steam turbine sold by the Zhang family to foreign countries. I wonder if we can win over Lingwei Trading Company?
It seems that Wang Ruiyang, the owner of Lingwei Trading Company, also visited Zhang's shipyard. "
Guanlanzi nodded immediately: "To win over, as long as you can accept it, no matter what price you pay!"
"Understood. I'll go and talk to him myself."

The theory of a round earth continues to spread, becoming more and more crazy. This madness has far exceeded Zhang Hao's expectations. Zhang Hao overlooked one point: this is the world of practice, and the speed of news spread is far faster than that of another world, and once a practitioner's exploration of the world is stimulated, it is immeasurable.
The news quickly crossed the Continent of Fertility, entered the Continent of Kunlun, and spread to the entire known world.
It was also shocking that Zhou Tianxing, the legendary Tianyuan star, was right under his feet. This news alone is enough to shock the entire practice world, or the practice world including the ground phenomenon.
However, this news also made some people ecstatic—the astrologer!
For so many years, astrologers have almost become marginalized people in society, with no achievements or honors, and gradually not many people pay attention to them. I don't know when it started, astrologers have been vaguely labeled as liars - using astrology to tell fortunes is really inaccurate!
But after the news spread, astrologers, big and small, became excited. Some of them began to think and try to use their own methods to deduce the results, but some of them packed their bags and prepared to go to the country of Qixia.
There are even some people who want to find the legendary Overseas Nine Immortals Mountain, and some people who are interested in exploring the outside world also begin to gather in the Qixia Kingdom.
An unpredictable storm is brewing!
Not to mention the distant places, but the Xuanzhen Sect's interior, there have been meetings for several days. Feng Zhiling, the guy who has the most contact with Zhang Hao, has been taken to the main hall for questioning for several days, almost like an interrogation. Fortunately, the elders are all amiable.
In fact, Feng Zhiling really wanted to yell: Can't you call Zhang Hao over and ask, that kid has not yet entered the mountain gate after he became an inner sect disciple of Xuanzhen Sect, isn't that too much?
As if hearing Feng Zhiling's heartfelt words, Hong Xuanzi, the head teacher of Xuanzhen Sect, finally turned his head to look at Hong Yunzi, one of the elders, "Junior Brother Hongyunzi, Zhang Hao is from your lineage, do you want to call this little guy come over?
Speaking of which, since he became a disciple of Xuanzhen Sect, this little guy hasn't visited the ancestor at the mountain gate yet. This is the first time in the history of Xuanzhen Sect! "
Hong Yunzi smiled and said, "It's Zhang Hao's honor to be summoned by the head teacher. I will come whenever I go. It is estimated that I will be back in half a day."
Hong Yunzi went as soon as he said, walked out of the hall, and flew away with a whoosh.

In the land of Qixia, Zhang Hao is too busy to touch the ground. On the Zhang family's side, Zhang Hao had just confirmed the research results of the depth charge, when the queen's envoy came to ask Zhang Hao to go to the imperial capital, and there was an important meeting that Zhang Hao needed to attend.
So Zhang Hao rushed to the imperial capital without stopping. In order to hurry, Zhang Hao was led by a master in the Nascent Soul stage to fly. Dayang Group now has many masters, and Zhang Hao is always protected by someone.
After Zhang Hao arrived in the imperial capital, Liu Xinyu, Prime Minister Zhao Duo, Generalissimo Wu Fanghai, Xu Jie from the Ministry of Justice, Zhou Jue from the Ministry of Households, Liu Jingming from the Ministry of War, and Liu Guang from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, all arrived.
Liu Xinyu cut to the chase, "Everyone, the country is booming and prosperous now. Then, there are some things that must be responded to!"
Previously, the kingdom of Langya blocked our sea route and almost cut off our future. This matter cannot be left alone!
There are also several surrounding countries who are also taking advantage of the fire to loot, treating the kindness of Qixia Kingdom as a donkey's liver and lungs, and repaying their favor with revenge. Such countries, I, will never allow them to continue to exist! "
Zhang Hao's eyes gradually brightened, and Liu Xinyu was going to fight back. However, Zhang Hao does not recommend counterattacking at this time.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Liu Xinyu continue to say: "Now that we are developing at a high speed, I am afraid that the surrounding countries will not allow us to develop with peace of mind.
Therefore, we need to find something to do for the surrounding countries.
Do you have any suggestions? "
Zhang Hao breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Xinyu was not arrogant enough to launch a war now, but was very sensible to keep the surrounding countries busy - don't add chaos to the Qixia Kingdom.
Everyone frowned slightly, and suddenly asked such a question, everyone was not prepared at all.
After thinking for a long time, some people put forward several opinions, but they were all rejected by everyone. What is planning to make troubles among the industrial and commercial classes of various countries, etc., it will not work at all. The countries have not been cleansed, and the strength of the industrial and commercial class is very weak.
Everyone discussed for a long time, and finally Liu Xinyu spoke again: "I have a suggestion, let's take a look at it."
After finishing speaking, Liu Xinyu turned his head and pointed to the location of the Shaoze Kingdom on the map: "Look, how about we support the Shaoze Kingdom?"
What is this suggestion? Everyone was confused by Liu Xinyu's proposal.
Zhang Hao also frowned and observed, the country of Qixia and the country of Shaoze were separated by the country of Jinyang, the country of Canglan (there is also the country of Taihua in the north), and then the country of Shaoze.
There is almost no influence between the two! Moreover, the country of Shaoze is a landlocked country, and it is even more divided now. It seems that it is not easy to operate to support such a country. And for the time being, I can't see any help to Qixia Country.
Liu Xinyu looked at everyone's frowns, and the queen was a little proud - I used to listen to what you said, but today you can listen to me!
The queen held a wooden stick, pointed at the map and said: "Have you noticed that although the country of Shaoze is inland, their current state is somewhat similar to ours in the past: there is no hope in sight, there is no way out around, Completely blocked.
If we can offer hope to the Land of Less, we may have a staunch ally. At least until the country of Shaoze rises, it cannot do without us!
And what we can provide to the country of Shaoze includes various technologies and a brand new political system! "
Zhang Hao was puzzled: "Your Majesty, the country of Shaoze is too far away from us, how will it affect our surroundings?"
(Two updates today, a little tired. Sorry.)
