Chapter 40: Luo Wusheng's Plan

Luo Wusheng quickly understood what Bai Xiaoyao meant by them having a "peculiar personality".

But at this moment, he still felt that his Junior Sister was too conservative on her assessment

Looking at the five people in front of him, who were all rolling wildly on the ground, he was somewhat silent.

"Wow, this kind of side effect is my first time experiencing it! Interesting, very interesting!"

"Senior Brother Song is right. How can there be such a slight and peculiar side effect? It's really interesting!"

"The Holy Saint really has extraordinary talent. He was able to conceive such a unique use of the Demon Artifact Refining Technique!"

The five people on the ground were excitedly shouting such words while covered from head to toe in dust.

Luo Wusheng's mouth twitched.

This wasn't them having quite a peculiar personality, it was simply them having a mental illness!

How could a normal and sane person intentionally shoot themself just to see what is the Artifact side effect of the Artifact with their own body?!

These people were the Artifact Refiners masters that Bai Xiaoyao had sent over.

The one in charge of them all was a Demon Sect disciple named Song Zhong.

Looking at them now, Luo Wusheng felt that he would have to send them off back to the Demon Sect sooner or later.

As disciples who actively chose to practice the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique, these people had a common hobby.

They each love to personally experience the harmful side effects of the Artifact that exist on the Artifacts that are made by using the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique.

Originally, only Song Zhong had this strange hobby, but over time, the other four ordinary Artifact Refiners masters learned this bad habit from him.

It had to be said that these people were very lucky to have survived until today.

Could it be that people who loved to die had better luck?

But this hobby was harmless in the past, since if they wanted to use the weapons forged with the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique, they had to be prepared to bear the side effects.

But now it was different.

Luo Wusheng had already successfully thought of a way to avoid the side effects.

It was the black thing that Xu Yuchun had used on the Trial Martial Arena today.

A Gun.

The kind that could shoot bullets.

That thing only existed in Luo Wusheng's memory in this world, but through the special properties of the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique, he successfully created something similar.

Although its power was much weaker than the modern gun in his memory, probably only having equal power as the gun from the early 18 century, Luo Wusheng didn't mind it at all since he didn't need the gun for its killing power.

What he needed was for the gun to be strong enough to handle the side effects that come with the characteristics of the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique. (Tn: He meant he just need the gun to be strong enough to handle the refining technique side effect of giving Debuff)

At this moment, the few people who were rolling on the ground had finally gotten rid of the side effects and stood up one by one with smiling faces.

"Hehe, your Holiness, sorry for the unsightly sight."

The Artifact Refiners master named Song Zhong patted the dust off his clothes and solemnly bowed to Luo Wusheng, "I really didn't expect the Holy Saint to come up with the concept of creating such a wonderful thing as [Bullets]. This has truly changed my Artifact Refining Technique."

"Oh, using the mundane object called [Firearm] as a trigger, only refining these bullets as mortal weapons, and not even complete mortal weapons, it can control the introduction of the power of heaven and earth, and make the resulting side effects as simple as possible." (Tn: He meant to say that rather than using the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique to make the gun, it's used to make the bullet instead, giving the side effect to the bullet)

"In this way, the user of this mortal weapon will not be affected by the side effects, and even the side effects can be triggered on the opponent, turning the disadvantage of our Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique into an advantage..." (Tn: Those who got hit by the bullet would get the debuff instead of the user)

"Although each bullet can only be used once, the advantage is that it doesn't require any cost. After all, what we need is not any rare refining materials, just some materials that can trigger spiritual power to refine, and the main power depends on what side effects there are on each bullet!"

Song Zhong looked at Luo Wusheng with shining eyes, amazed by the amazing mind of their Demon Sect Holy Saint.

He never expected that his Holy Saint, Luo Wusheng, would have such a deep understanding of the side effects of the Demon Sect Artifact Refining Technique.

He felt that he and the saint must be kindred spirits, both obsessed with experiencing side effects!

Luo Wusheng also looked surprised as he listened to Song Zhong slowly explaining his thoughts.

It was true that the [Firearm] was not a real gun in his memory, but a combination weapon that had the shape of a gun and could be used with mortal weapon bullets that could trigger some power of heaven and earth.

Although the power it could trigger was extremely limited and could only affect those within the Foundation Establishment realm or below, Luo Wusheng, who had already reached the realm of the Peak Golden Core realm, would not need such a thing.

In fact, he would rather be a cool swordsman rather than a gunslinger in this world.

However, the beauty of the "Gun" he created was that it was terrifying when facing those below the Foundation Establishment level, and could quickly occupy the market.

The main source of income for the Artifact Refining Pavilion was the continuous stream of cultivation with the realm below the Foundation Establishment realm. If they could monopolize this market and significantly improve the strength of those cultivators…..

However, he didn't explain so much to Song Zhong. All of this was what he had realized after trying a bullet.

It seemed that although this person's hobby was a bit strange, his refining skills were quite impressive.

Luo Wusheng was very satisfied and once again gave a mental thumbs up to the demoness.

"As you said, this is my idea."

Luo Wusheng looked at Song Zhong with an appreciative gaze. "In that case, can I entrust the task of refining the bullets to you?"

Song Zhong and the others' eyes lit up.

"Your subordinates will not disappoint your expectations, Your Holiness!"

They are eager to try more side effects of this 'bullet'.

......

After sending the several Artifact Refining masters to the fourth floor refining room, Luo Wusheng decisively returned to his newly purchased residence.

Although he admired those Demon Sect disciples who devoted themselves to science, he didn't want to be assimilated into their ranks.

So he assigned the task of refining the gun barrels to his new subordinate.

Today, the four young officers were using the gun barrels and bullets he personally refined on the practice stage.

However, both the bullets and the gun that were used right now were just ordinary objects, not an Artifact, and even if they hit an ordinary person, they would only cause minor injuries.

The killing power was much weaker than the weapon of murder that Luo Wusheng remembered.

However, he still had to refine them.

After all, Luo Wusheng had promised to give a special gift to the person who would arrive in six days.

This combination of these two ordinary objects was the best gift.

Since they were not an Artifact, selling guns would not violate the Immortal Nation market rules.

Luo Wusheng pointed his finger to a pile of refining materials with pride in his sales strategy.

With his cultivation level, he could easily make dozens or even hundreds of these ordinary objects in one go.

Anyway, since the barrels were made using mythical means rather than scientific ones, the chance of something like having the gun barrel explode would be pretty much nil, it was just that some guns had slower firing rates and less power than the others.

Considering the original firing rate and power of these guns, the error caused by these two factors could be ignored from two extreme perspectives.

"It's just that this kind of assembly line work is a bit boring..."

Luo Wusheng yawned.

At times like this, should he be still in the modern world, he would spend his time watching anime or movies, or at the very least, listening to music, but since this world is severely lacking in either of those, there is nothing he could do.

Thinking of music, he remembered Courtesan Yao Ji from the Red Blossom Pavilion again.

'Still couldn't be sure if she was the Mortal Alter Ego of the Immortal Nation Empress or not'

Hmmm, he needed to find more opportunities to go there just to make sure.

But he was only going to listen to music and improve his relationship with her, he definitely didn't have any other intentions!

All the girls there were trying to seduce him, and he was still an inexperienced and innocent young man...

It was really troublesome.

The Holy Saint of the Demon Sect who kept away from women's charms thought to himself.

"Maybe I need to make a schedule."

"Well, I should work in the morning, communicate more with my subordinates, and establish a friendly boss image."

"I still have the responsibility to craft enough guns in the afternoon, after all, I'm the only one who can make these without any accident."

"I still have time during the day to spend with Bai Xiaoyao. I can't waste the good impression I've made on her."

"At night, I have to tell new stories to Little Yuli. And if luck is on my side, I can secretly sneak away to Red Blossom Pavilion to listen to Yao Ji music— Cough, Ahem, to improve my relationship with her."

He had been too careless before.

If he relied on his Peak Golden Core cultivation to hide all the way, even if someone were to try to find his whereabouts, it wouldn't be as easy as before.
