Volume 5: The Ancient Glorious Empire Chapter 61: The Overlord at the Bottom
When the catastrophe of promotion finally came to an end, Spark Oasis began to expand rapidly.
The oasis continued to spread, smashing the gray fog with its powerful force, and even constantly changing the surrounding topography.
The original environment of the Spark Oasis was just a small valley. As the oasis upgraded and expanded, the valley also turned into the land and mountains of the oasis, extending all the way to the rock wall of the Falling Star Region.
At this moment, the rock wall of the large domain was also stretched open.
This is the rule! When Oasis is promoted and its area expands, everything will be subject to Oasis!
It was not just the land that changed, but also the endless vitality that gushed out from the core of the oasis, and the scale of resource points increased accordingly. There was also a mysterious and wonderful advent, and even the mythical demigods in the oasis were slightly aware of it.
They couldn't precisely perceive what kind of power this was, but they just felt that they seemed to be more energetic.
"It's fate's favor."
Fang You said secretly.
The strange world is like a dead wood, but there are also some places on this dead wood that are tenaciously growing new buds. Humans are the caretakers of these new buds, helping them to thrive and at the same time enjoying the gifts of the strange world.
He guessed so.
As the lord of the oasis and the person in charge of the core, Fang You's perspective continues to rise with the promotion of the oasis. He can overlook the mountains and rivers, the earth, the stars, the sun and the moon with just a thought.
He was not unfamiliar with this kind of experience, it was the "pseudo-high-level divine consciousness posture".
"Is this the power of the ninth-level oasis?"
He thought.
Before the promotion, Fang You was not clear about the specific powers of the ninth-level oasis.
The Neverwinter Empire did not make it public, and the Seven Yunhui Nations, Ancient Moon Red Lotus and other nations kept it even more secret. They only vaguely found out that the specific powers of different level nine oases were also different.
Fang You opened the panel to check.
After waiting for a while, some mysterious fragments of information flooded into my soul.
He pondered it carefully and tried it a little.
"'High-level Divine Mind' is a derivative ability of Power One [Protection of the World]."
"As long as the Lord of the Oasis is within the scope of the oasis, he can call upon the world power condensed in the oasis and temporarily possess a combat power that is enough to rival that of a higher-ranking person."
Teacher Fang is very familiar with this model.
In the higher world outside, as long as you gain the world's recognition, you can hold the world's authority and call upon the world's power... It is quite reasonable for the strange world, whose status is countless times higher, to have similar abilities.
But the two are not exactly the same.
The world power of Blue Star can be used more freely, but if you want to exert high-level combat power, you need to know how to use it and meet certain conditions.
The power of this world is not limited to cultivation and increasing combat power.
The "Shelter of the World" of the ninth-level oasis must operate according to established rules.
This is a kind of protection. Once used, it can burn the power of the world and allow the Lord of the Oasis to temporarily enter a pseudo-high position.
Both have their advantages and disadvantages.
The latter is easy to use, but its upper and lower limits are fixed, and it is impossible to make full use of the power of the world. It is impossible to burn it as firewood of faith and amplify a certain skill like Fang You.
"And the world power of this model is stronger than that of an ordinary higher-level world. Well, it is roughly equivalent to a blue star that has merged two world stones."
"As the Level Nine Oasis continues to expand and accumulate strength, the protection of the world will continue to grow."
With this power, it can be said that the survival ability of the major hegemonic forces has rapidly increased.
It’s no wonder that the overlords have to build a level nine oasis even at the cost of losses.
Well, Blue Star has currently integrated seven of the world’s most unique stones.
[Shelter of the World] is a power shared by all nine-level oases, while another power, [Oasis Artifact], is different for each oasis.
"The Oasis Artifact requires the combined strength of the entire Oasis to forge, and is formed through the evolution of rules."
It takes time.
It requires 3 suitable crimson-grade materials and 30 legendary-grade materials, supplemented by a certain amount of world power for mixing.
Compared with the true power of the Oasis artifact, this amount of material is nothing.
This is because, in terms of grade, the Oasis Artifact is half a grade higher than the Crimson-grade Weapon.
However, similar to the previous power, the oasis artifact relies on the oasis for its existence and cannot be taken out of the oasis, nor can a second piece be forged.
The specific powers of the Oasis artifact were determined the moment the Oasis was promoted to Level Nine.
"And the artifacts that we can forge in Starfire Oasis, um..."
It can be roughly called "Holy Fire", and its ability is mainly reflected in the aura gain.
It can greatly boost morale, greatly resist the erosion of filth, increase the "power of holy fire", and within a certain duration, enable all soldiers to have almost unlimited life energy.
This is worthy of the name of a divine weapon!
As for the more specific effects, we will have to wait until it is forged to know.
"I don't know what the abilities of other level nine oasis artifacts are. Are they also auxiliary or main attack oasis artifacts?"
He had no way of knowing.
The only way is to manage the Burning Oasis to level nine and create a second oasis artifact.
Fang You handed over the casting of the artifact to Master Wang Chui.
He had only one request, which was speed.
Oasis artifacts are not treasure weapons in the conventional sense. They still need to be nurtured after being cast, and can become stronger as time goes by and the oasis becomes stronger.
——Although, the three qualified red-level materials, emmmm, seem to be not yet gathered.
It doesn’t matter, you can collect materials while casting.
He has hundreds of thousands of workers to support him, so why should he worry about not being able to find materials?
The evil craze that lasted for three days and three nights also left behind a lot of valuable materials.
The higher the level of the material, the more resistant it is, and it won't be easily destroyed by the aftermath... This makes Fang not so upset.
The soldiers who have fought for a long time have returned to their homes to rest, and their contributions will be distributed after the statistics are completed.
The elite awakeners who were on rotation and on standby in the city walked out of the city and stepped into the horrific place with corpses everywhere mountains of gold and silver.
Collect and excavate materials outside the city.
Repair damaged buildings in the city.
This post-processing work lasted a full week to complete. Especially the excavation and burning of the corpses of the evil spirits outside the city, Xiao Huan said that this was more troublesome than exterminating 100 million evil spirits.
…
Floods flooded the country.
"Lord Chunshui, we can restore the capital to its original state in half a year. However, if we want to truly complete the repair of the rituals in various places and restore them to their previous level, it will take at least one or two years."
One or two years, not long.
It's just that time seems a little tight as disaster approaches.
The Pure Water Demigod nodded slightly.
"No matter what, we have already advanced to the ninth level of the oasis, so all the sacrifices are worth it."
…
"This battle consumes ghost crystals, potions, and weapons... but it's still worth it~"
With Xiaohuan around, data statistics are clear and transparent.
This battle consumed countless supplies, which were of high value. However, thanks to the fact that the city was not damaged much, the value of the consumed supplies was basically equal to the gains from the battle - leaving aside the gains from the fate points and oasis upgrades.
Among the items dropped by Guixie, the three with the highest value are these.
Divine source, divine source, and divine source again.
The three high-ranking evil spirits contributed the strategic treasures that Xinhuo needed most.
Qianhong immediately absorbed the rhythm of the laws on the divine source. Fang You took the remaining damaged divine source to the Time Pavilion to recharge it.
Suddenly,
Light Red's combat power has increased significantly. The use of the Secret Realm of Time and Years can also be less stingy.
He immediately upgraded the welfare benefits of Yiluoxi, Xing Jinglei and others to the first level.
"Thank you for the gift, my friends from Guixie."
During this period, Fang You asked Yin Ling to give Chi Yan a physical examination.
According to the conclusion of the last examination: Chi Yan's body and soul were severely damaged, many of her abilities were unusable, and her memory was missing... It can be said that only one tenth of her strength remained.
For the sake of safety, Fang You did not take Chi Yan's combat power into account.
He was worried that fighting with injuries might leave Chi Yan with irreparable sequelae, which would be disastrous.
But he didn't expect that while he was distracted, Chi Yan rushed forward and tore the two high-level Gui Xie hands apart.
"The combat power she displayed is not as strong as the Advent Card, but it is still beyond imagination."
"The most important thing is that after this period of 'fighting with injuries', Chi Yan's injuries not only did not get worse, but he actually recovered a little."
Not to mention Fang You, even Yin Ling couldn’t understand the ins and outs of this.
Yin Ling spread her hands, "After all, I'm just a doctor, but mentor, why don't you consider letting Miss Chi Yan stay and cooperate with the research for a while... As a researcher, you naturally need sufficient experiments to draw conclusions."
Fang You pondered for a moment, did not speak, and looked at Chi Yan with a questioning look.
Chi Yan was wearing a loose white coat that seemed to be dragging on the ground. She had just come down from the laboratory table... where she was checking the instruments. She was startled when she heard the words and looked around at the medical room, which was in a simple white style, with instruments of unknown meaning, and Doctor Yin Ling, whose eyes were shining with a creepy light...
She ran behind Fang You and kept shaking her head.
Da Meh!
…
In addition to power, the upgrade of the ninth-level oasis also gave birth to two new precious resource veins that can produce legendary materials in an endless supply.
The annual output of other resources has also increased significantly.
Once Mentor Fang grits his teeth and spends a huge amount of fate points to upgrade several of the resource points to level 9, these resource sites will have a small chance of producing red-level materials.
Hey, no wonder other overlord forces are trying their best to advance to Oasis.
Even though he has more than a hundred mythical workers at home, he still feels that this kind of red-level material picked up for free is very tempting.
Well, the next step is to upgrade the Burning Oasis to level eight and then to level nine as soon as possible.
In addition, the remaining two can be included in the oasis quota, and can choose to settle down in the Western Weird World and the Southern Weird World.
These days, Xinhuo has been collecting intelligence from the outside world.
Soon after their own oasis was promoted, the Red Sand Nation used the whole country's strength to promote a ninth-level oasis. They were more successful than the Water Flood Nation.
As a result, among the seven major countries, only Shanyan Kingdom and Fengxiao Kingdom have not yet been promoted to the ninth-level oasis.
And just in these few days, a dominant force in the Western Weird Realm and the Da Mi Luan City in the Broken Sea of the Eastern Weird Realm were also promoted one after another.
Shanyan Kingdom and Fengxiao Kingdom not only became the last two among the seven major countries, but also the last two among all the hegemonic forces.
The pressure instantly came upon these two countries.
But what does this have to do with their legacy?
At the same time,
Shanyang State is purchasing 10,000 batches of strategic materials from Xinhuo College, including the discarded strange crystal cannons, plant seeds, etc. that were piled up in the warehouse.
A Shanyan myth sighed, "This Xinhuo Academy not only possesses cutting-edge technology, but also has a very high output of weapons. It makes up for the weakness of our Shanyan country's weak strategic weapons. Once this batch of weapons is installed, we can start the promotion war. We must get ahead of Fengxiao country, otherwise, it will be a bit embarrassing."
Another Shanyan legend stroked his chin, "Come to think of it, Xinhuo Academy is now ranked in the senior seats, and it is also a dominant force. Isn't Xinhuo Academy still behind us Shanyan and Fengxiao?"
They are not the top two.
...At least, in the top three.
And it is impossible to become the last one.
"But Xinhuo College doesn't run Oasis. Compared with Xinhuo College..."
They still can't afford to lose this person.
Of course, judging by the universal theory, they think Xinhuo College has some oases. Otherwise, how did Xinhuo College have such a high output of materials and equipment? The college secret realm cannot accommodate so many factories.
It’s just that Xinhuo Academy mainly operates secret realms, and the oasis is just a by-product... just like their Shanyan Kingdom’s unimportant enclave located outside the territory.
The roads are different, how can we compare?
If you don’t want to be at the bottom, you still have to rely on yourself!
…
The secret realm of Xinhuo Academy is now docked in the Western Guijie, conducting friendly economic and student exchanges with several overlord forces here.
On this day, Fang You temporarily put aside a lot of affairs in Spark Oasis and hurried here.
He didn't have to manage the oasis personally. After the war, Liu Feng returned to the academy to take charge.
However, a message just now made him rush here.
Fang You looked at the trial officer, "You mean, the central trial site is about to be revealed? How do you know this?"
There is no movement at all.
Whether it is the world or other hegemonic forces.
"How should I put it..." Miss Ruo couldn't explain it for a while. "Feeling, feeling, you know, after all, I am also a trial officer, and Trial Site No. 404 is still lower than the Central Trial Site. I can have some intuition, which is also reasonable."
Quite reasonable.
Since Miss Ruo said so, they began to prepare for battle.
He was not clear about the content and form of the levels in the central trial ground, but it didn't matter, he could just rush in and be done with it.
Several demigods, more than a hundred myths, all young geniuses, how can you lose? !
However, he was more worried about whether he would be targeted by the evil god's servants.
We have to take some safety precautions.
…
The strange world, a hidden place somewhere.
An ancient being made a prophecy.
"Soon, the human remains, the Candela Trial Ground, will be officially unveiled."
"There is nothing worth paying attention to about human things."
"No, humans can't do that, but the destroyed Kandra Empire is different. They used human bodies to create weapons that can harm the evil god. If we can get these weapons, our plan will be more certain."
"But, the Kandra Empire calls itself the Glorious Country and the Godless Country. They have always been at odds with us Ancient Gods."
"Oh, human!"
"Don't worry, I will take action."
"If the Kandra Empire was still there, I would still be a little bit afraid of it, but it's just a relic that operates according to established rules... It's not difficult to enter it with a different identity."
"Besides, many of my old friends who have returned from reincarnation are now human beings."
The rumbling sound echoed in the secret place.
The ancient beings gathered here, and quickly dispersed, leaving only the mysterious rhythm of the laws floating between heaven and earth.
