Chapter 874 - 874 Evolving the Royal City

874 Evolving the Royal City

The dazzling Star Web swallowed the Mage’s Eye and Illusionary Spirit Pearl, instantly fusing them. The fusion was seamless under the immense power of Heaven and Earth.

Once the devouring was complete and the two rare treasures were fully integrated, the abilities of the Star Web would undoubtedly be enhanced.

Eventually, a bamboo shoot appeared and catapulted into the sky above the Star Palace, towards where the World Tree was situated. That was a space that belonged to the majestic tree.

Perhaps it was the first time a plant of the level of a rare treasure had entered the World Tree Space, the World Tree bestowed extraordinary care, designating a separate region that formed into a garden.

It was the Jade Bone Sword Bamboo Shoot.

After the bamboo shoot took root, it absorbed the vitality of Heaven and Earth. With the blessing of the mighty Heaven and Earth and the World Tree, it grew rapidly, transforming into a Jade Bone Sword Bamboo in the blink of an eye. The bamboo stem was perfectly straight, resembling a sword bone. Each bamboo leaf took on the shape of a sword, exuding a fierce sword intent.

The Jade Bone Sword Bamboo sprouted with nine sections.

“One plant is just too dull. Since it’s a garden, let’s turn it into a bamboo forest. Consider it a special scenery in my royal palace.”

As he marveled at the greatness of Heaven and Earth, he could not help but frown at the sight of the lone bamboo plant that did not quite capture the tranquil beauty of a bamboo forest.

In a flash, the carcasses of fierce beasts were sent into the garden.

A terrifying scene unfolded as soon as the bodies entered.

From the unique soil naturally derived from the World Tree emerged numerous snakelike roots, instantly stabbing into the flesh and blood of the carcasses. One by one, a bamboo shoot sprouted from each corpse.

Bamboo reproduced through roots, and the roots can spawn bamboo shoots. A single bamboo shoot could grow into a sprawling bamboo forest.

Each corpse could only grow one bamboo shoot.

They grew at an incredible speed, rapidly absorbing the essence from the flesh, blood, and bones, turning them all into nutrients for their growth. In the blink of an eye, the bamboo shoots transformed into trees, growing taller section by section.

The stronger the flesh and blood it absorbed, the faster it grew, and the more nodes it produced. Some grew to have five or even six.

Each one was straight and upright, emitting a sharp sword intent. The rustling of bamboo leaves filled the air, producing a crackling sound that was crisp and clear. The Jade Bone Sword Bamboo was exceptionally long with each section measuring at least one meter in length, resembling the blade of a battle sword. Sword lovers would be delighted by the sight of it.

Nourished by the heaps of corpses, bamboo shoots sprouted out in abundance as if they were soaked in spring rain, forming a vast bamboo forest. The trees swayed gently in the breeze, creating a sea of white that appeared as an almost perfect scenic view.

This was a forest of Jade Bone Sword Bamboo!

“Again!”

Li Xiang still felt that the bamboo forest was too sparse. He flung a pile of over a thousand corpses of fierce beasts and orcs into the forest. Most of which had reached the mythical realm.

Instantly, more bamboo trees emerged. All had at least six sections, with some growing up to seven or eight sections.

With the energy of Heaven and Earth, the bamboo forest was completely formed, looking extremely pleasing to the eye.

Four Magic Crystal Cannon then appeared, each stationed at a corner of the City of Dawn, merging with the city as a whole.

The power of Heaven and Earth continued to refine the entire city. In the square, the female statue emitted a melodious zither tune, shimmering with spiritual light. Cryptic spiritual patterns entwined on her body, extending toward the void. Waves of innate vitality gushed out from the statue, quickly filling up the City of Dawn in unison with the Taurus.

What was the innate spiritual vein? Upon successful spawning, both the Taurus and the female statue were innate spiritual veins, and the spiritual veins were them. They were as one and indistinguishable.

The second spiritual vein was born.

“As expected, such rare treasures can really spawn spiritual veins. Buying it from Jin Xiangyu is simply a great deal.” Li Xiang felt a surge of excitement.

Unfortunately, this kind of rare treasure was hard to come by. He looked forward to the day when he could gather all twelve of them.

“In the future, it’s imperative that I collect such rare treasures. While two spiritual veins are a good start, the more, the better. Each additional vein can drastically increase the concentration of innate vitality, speeding up the rate of cultivation. The benefits that come with it are endless.”

Lost in thought, Li Xiang resolved to source for other statues, hoping to uncover some incredible mysteries hidden inside them.

With a slight tremble, the City of Dawn was promoted to a royal city.

At that moment, he could feel the grade and foundation of the city had undergone a radical shift. It was as if he had become one with the City of Dawn.

He was the supreme leader, possessing the power to suppress everything.

The Starlight Shrine had also experienced a nuanced change together with the City of Dawn, forging a mystical connection between the two.

“The entire city has metamorphized, but it’s still a far cry from the Divine City of my dreams. It seems to lack an energy core, but I must be patient as this is not a matter to be rushed. With the Tower of Stars in my hand, at least there is no need to refine the city as a divine weapon or resort to using it for an attack. I shan’t be too anxious. However, I must keep a sharp eye on any information about the treasure in the future.”

Although the Kingdom of Dawn was now a rudimentary form of a Divine City and had reached the level of a royal city, it was still far from being a true Divine City. This issue had to be resolved as soon as possible, or it would become a potential danger.

The Kingdom of Dawn was like a person’s body. Without an origin core, it was like lacking a soul, and without a soul, it could not function smoothly.

“Great, we have finally been promoted to a royal city.”

“Our Kingdom of Dawn is now a royal city. If this were in the past, it would have been the capital of a dynasty – a city of incomparable prestige.”

The citizens of the City of Dawn were absolutely ecstatic. They instinctively felt that the status of the Kingdom of Dawn had been elevated. This represented astonishing progress amidst the chaos of the world today.

Meng Wudi sneered to himself, “Well, well, what a remarkable Kingdom of Dawn, and such an ambitious Li Xiang, using me as his stepping stones. It takes a great deal of audacity to do so, beyond that of mere mortals. And just look at how quickly the Kingdom of Dawn has ascended to a royal city. Oh, what a strong foundation they must have!”
