Chapter 367: Chapter 274: The Border City Outside the Territory (4K)_2

Mu Yuan pondered, “Normal cultivating artifacts either enhance cultivating speed or provide certain soul power experience.”

For the same artifact, an elite-level user might level up two or three grades, but for a Leader Level user, it might not even result in half a minor upgrade.

This is normal.

The power an artifact possesses is a constant.

However, this object before him, presumably called ‘Upgrading Stone’, is quite special. An Apprentice Level user can level up three grades, and a Leader Level user can also level up three grades.

This is its rule.

“Duo Lai, the organization has decided that you will use this gemstone. Progress towards the Legendary Realm as soon as possible.”

Only with a Legendary Realm figure in place, can Tianyuan Territory be considered somewhat secure.

Otherwise, Lord Shepherd would worry about waking up one day to find the Legendary figure of an enemy country or a monster at his doorstep.

This isn’t paranoia from being persecuted by Dead Bone.

The coordinates of Tianyuan Territory have already been recorded by the Eye of Shiny.

It seems that there is a Goblin Prince hiding in the vicinity of Shiling Town.

Facing a legend, the defensive power of Tianyuan Territory is still far from enough, which forces him to be anxious.

Normally, this ‘Upgrading Gemstone’ will bring maximum benefit when used at the 7th grade of the Leader Level, as it can directly reach the peak of Leader Level. Unfortunately, this kind of gemstone cannot be preserved.

“If it could be preserved, I’m afraid the princes and princesses of the Yongxing Empire and the Shen Mu Dynasty, could easily stack their generals to the peak of the Leader Level.”

This is a special product of the fused era of two realms.

It will not be in vain to give it to Duo Lai.

General Duo Lai bit off the gemstone in one crunch, “It’s not chewy and tasteless, feels a bit strange.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than a surge of energy swirled within, stirring up wild winds.

His power level was rising rapidly, and in the blink of an eye…

‘Ding!’

“Prompt: Your hero Duo Lai level has been upgraded from ‘Leader Level 4th Grade’ to ‘Leader Level 7th Grade’.”

He is already in the high ranks of the Leading Realm!

He is miles ahead of Dead Bone, who is currently the second… second strongest in the Tianyuan Territory by level ranking.

The Legendary Realm is not far away.

Mu Yuan had to admit, this kind of interrealm treasure is very enticing. What if he could get another Upgrading Stone? Wouldn’t General Duo Lai be able to directly rush to the peak of the Leading Realm?

Then, refining Super Limit Body, cultivating Light of Will, it should not be long before he reaches the Legendary Realm.

What, General Duo Lai can’t ignite the Light of Will?

If it really doesn’t work, then throw Duo Lai into the terrifying Illusion of Hong Yi for reincarnation. Given Miss Duo’s Epic Two Star status, there is no reason not to ignite a Light of Will. If that still doesn’t work, they could try the limit of Evolution Points.

After tasting the sweetness, Lord Shepherd, accompanied by treasure-seeking Duo, did several laps around the school area.

Unfortunately, until the main rescue team arrived and the survivors began to move to Xingrong Town, he did not find the second Treasure of Two Realms.

“Normal, normal.”

The survivors’ transfer went smoothly, and they entered a relatively safe area one day later.

Seeing this, Mu Yuan then led Xi Liu and Lian Yue to return home.

As for Duo Lai and Sophia, he had sent the two back a day earlier. Sophia has a heavy workload, and Duo Lai is multitasking with transportation, exploration, fighting, and cultivation. He couldn’t afford to stay in the outside world for too long.

After being out for two and a half days, the Lord Shepherd returned to his loyal Tianyuan Territory.

Oh, he was only operating his avatar when he went out, and he stayed at home all the time? No problem then.

“The main ones to be evolved next are General Dead Bone and General Duo Lai, each of which requires 80 thousand units of Evolution Points.”

Once Duo Lai progresses further, it will help reach the Legendary Realm quicker.

No need to say more about Dead Bone, he has always been the defense force of the territory.

“There is also no need to instruct Sophia to purchase more Little Skeletons and Slime remnant soul. She has been purchasing any kind of remnant souls as long as they are available and the trading place isn’t too far.”

“The boundary area, however, can be explored.”

Mu Yuan wasn’t sure about the intersecting areas in Eternal World, but a lot of information could be found about the intersecting areas in Lanxing.

At least most of the ones in Xuan Country could be found.

Nowadays within Xuan Country, new intersecting areas were being born every day. Some disappeared soon after they were born, and some became permanents, gnawing on the territory of Lanxing like a massive mouth.

There were even more intersecting areas being born outside the country. There were many areas where few people were active, so if an intersecting area was born, no one would notice.

“Anyway, while the Red Fog Disaster Moon has passed and the territory can spare some battalion-level combat power, try to explore some intersecting areas.”

“You can start exploring from the intersecting areas near Baijiang City and the suburbs of Jiangbei City.”

…

Perhaps these intersecting areas were a bit ‘old’ after all. Mu Yuan’s avatar wandered around several times, but he didn’t even find a shadow of a spatial crack.

General Duo Lai, who was entrusted with high hopes, also came up empty-handed.

But to be fair, Duo Lai originally didn’t have the ability to search. Finding treasure relied on intuition that was sometimes there and sometimes not, which was somewhat unreliable.

Time was slowly passing by.

The end of the month was getting closer, and disasters falling on Lanxing became more and more frequent.

The sinking incidents in areas like Qing Mountain Hospital and Baijiang School were no longer rare occurrences in Xuan Country.

As far as Mu Yuan knew, dozens of similar incidents had occurred in just ten days and half a month.

However, most of these areas sank in the inner circle of Tai Xuan Alliance’s territory. There weren’t many monsters there, and in the end, it was a close call.

Of course, people died during this process, a lot of them, but considering the vastness of Xuan Country, these were major victories.

“Only a few dozen areas have sunk. Considering the vast Xuan Country, this is very rare. But this is Xuan Country. We have solidified our territory, so there are not many sinking incidents.”

“In contrast, there are many more sinking incidents in the Star Splendor Federation.”

However, the strategy chosen by the Star Splendor Federation was different from that of Xuan Country. They built absolute safe cities. Within the range of their cities, there would be no spatial overlap, and no fleeing monsters would surge out of the space cracks.

By the time the two worlds fully merged, these absolute safe cities would become arks of refuge, slowly approaching the Eternal World.

Compared to Xuan Country and the Star Alliance, other countries undoubtedly had more sinking incidents. Some small countries were even broken and destroyed by monsters early on. Wisdom Monsters established their own tribes on the land of these small countries.

These small countries were also experiencing severe spatial overlaps, and entire cities disappeared, sinking into the Eternal World.

“The fusion of Lanxing is about to begin. I hope there won’t be any new storms.”

Mu Yuan murmured.

…

At roughly the same time, in the forest west of Tianyuan Territory where few rays of daylight penetrated.

This place is officially known as Dark Forest, covering a vast area, like a curved knife inserted into Tai Xuan Alliance’s territory.

There were poisonous spiders everywhere in the periphery of the Dark Forest, and terrifying spiders the size of cars could be seen everywhere. In the early days, Mu Yuan had led a group of skeletons to explore the area he named the ‘Poisonous Spider Forest’.

But considering the high danger level of the Poisonous Spider Forest, Lord Shepherd only ventured ten or so kilometers before deciding not to proceed further.

Later, he heard that the Poisonous Spider area was just the periphery of the Dark Forest, which was a high-risk area near Tai Xuan Alliance and was very iconic.

The Great Lord lost his desire to explore.

I couldn’t afford to mess with it.

But a few months ago, the Dark Forest underwent a great purge, and now on the map of Tai Xuan, it had been downgraded from high-risk area to ‘medium-to-low risk’ area.

After some time, it could be developed and resource areas could be established.

At this time, closer to the periphery of the Dark Forest, a billowing white mist suddenly spread out, covering an area of tens to hundreds of kilometers.

Silently, ripples began to appear in space.

A somewhat dilapidated and low-rise city descended into the Dark Forest, merging with the entire forest.

It was as if a mirage gradually materialized.

The whole process was incredibly natural and didn’t cause any waves.

Becuase, there were already quite a few monsters running around in the city. Gunshots and roars were frequent. Compared to the monsters, the survivors were actually the minority.

Not until a certain moment did several players come to the edge of the city and looked out at the towering trees, only then were they stunned.
