Chapter 481: Chapter 320: Daily Life Before the Storm (4K)
Several days after the construction of Wolf Head Mountain Fortress, the Tianyuan Territory no longer explored in secrecy. Teams of explorers, using the fortress as a hub, penetrated deeply into the surrounding areas, continuously surveying the landscape and slaughtering monsters that wandered the wilderness.
Mu Yuan had not dared to explore on a large scale before, even though they had discovered a large tribe 400 kilometers to the north. In truth, the area within one hundred kilometers of their surroundings had not yet reached 100% exploration.
It was only during this exploration that they discovered the wilderness depths were indeed full of treasures.
Wisdom monsters also knew how to mine minerals, occupy treasures, and even Miracle Buildings. However, some Miracle Buildings or treasure sites were protected by certain rules which they could not touch.
Buildings like the Hero Duel Arena served no purpose for wisdom monsters, as they could not use them!
On the other hand, buildings like the Soul Shrine and the Altar of Destruction could be used by both living creatures and monsters… It seemed there was some sort of pattern, which he was studying.
On the fourth day after the establishment of Wolf Head Mountain Fortress, the exploratory team led by Xi Liu found a high-order Soul Remnants shaping area in an underground space.
This was a high-order Soul Remnants shaped by Earth's Force, with flowing lights illuminating the entire cavern.
Beside the high-order Soul Remnants, a host of powerful monsters stood guard, including a 'Magic Flame Two-headed Dragon' of excellence rank. Xi Liu found this rather hidden area by following his hunting instincts for dragon ingredients.
On the same day, 'Bone Two' discovered a new Wild Soldier Building.
"Gunman Tower (Limited Time)"
"Description: Can recruit common Two-star Troops Spearman, with a chance to critically recruit higher ranked spearmen. This building cannot be occupied and will randomly appear throughout Eternal World. Time remaining until the next relocation of the Gunman Tower: 5d12h."
The Gunman Tower was just one of the lower-grade buildings among the Wild Soldier Buildings, nothing unusual.
But,
Perhaps the Gunman Tower had not been encountered by a Miracle Lord for too long, the number of 'troops awaiting recruitment' inside the tower actually reached an astonishing 996!
Mu Yuan recruited them all in one go.
The productivity of the Human Evolution Points further increased. According to the rules of Contribution Points, Isloa and Lu Liu would soon experience an evolution.
Besides these special sites, the greatest gains of the exploratory team came from the Roots of Corruption.
In just two days, the team found six Lands of Filth and purified them.
Three of these yielded materials of excellence rank.
"This place has many Lands of Filth, and they aren't difficult to conquer; it's practically a natural ATM. But..."
If the Red Fog Disaster Moon were to come at this time, entering the disaster moon period, Mu Yuan could hardly imagine the wave of monsters that Tianyuan Territory would face.
There were too many monsters here, high-order monsters were everywhere.
Once the Disaster Moon emerged, the corruption born from heaven and earth would far exceed that of normal regions.
By the current state of Tianyuan Territory, they could not withstand a 200% monster wave.
"Fortunately, the Red Fog Disaster Moon is a world-wide catastrophe, and the disaster moon has just passed. It will not come again soon. I still have time to develop."
The exploratory team did not always gain something whenever they discovered special regions.
They found several ancient civilization ruins, with the largest being a city ruin buried amidst the mountains. However, the exploratory team was unable to unearth anything valuable from these ancient ruins. Even when General Duo Lai left the Wolf Head Mountain Fortress to visit the city ruins, his 'treasure radar' showed no signs of life.
These ancient civilization ruins bore signs of having been searched through before.
Clearly, someone had gotten there first.
"I'll remember this!" Duo Lai said fiercely.
Most of the time, Duo Lai could not venture out; he had to be stationed at the Wolf Head Mountain Fortress in case of enemy attacks.
At the same time, he had to focus on his cultivation. He had just advanced to Legendary Realm, and any slight change brought significant improvement.
Atop Wolf Head Mountain, Duo Lai sat alone on a peak far from the fortress, his black and white Domain emanating from him as the core.
He did not reveal his entire Domain, only spreading it two or three hundred meters around, but still a mysterious and majestic black serpent could be seen winding through the space.
"The cultivation of the Legendary Realm is about absorbing the power of heaven and earth to strengthen one's own Domain. In this process, one also needs to absorb auxiliary materials to increase the speed of cultivation..."
The above were the words of the Lord.
Duo Lai didn't really understand those few Legendary Cultivation Manuals.
It's not that he didn't understand them; he knew all the characters and symbols inside, but couldn't grasp the connected meaning.
He misunderstood about 89.9% of it.
He had endured headaches and had flipped through the books word by word, from beginning to end.
Fortunately, he no longer needed to study those Cultivation Manuals. He had his own exclusive manual.
Said manual, according to a certain general who preferred to remain anonymous, was also not well understood by him, but intuition told him what to do first, then next, and that was enough.
So, he allowed his Domain to maintain a certain rhythm, expanding and contracting, pulsing like human breath.
The black Devouring serpent within his Domain also began to undulate with a profound rhythm.
Particles from the elements of heaven and earth swarmed to him.
Soul Crystals, chunks of Black Ironstone and copper within the Domain, merged into the tidal flow of energy from the earth and were digested by Duo Lai.
