Chapter 496: Chapter 256: Child of Nature

Baiyi’s Spiritual Power felt somewhat fatigued. After releasing the Soul of Accumulation five consecutive times, even though 30% of the Spiritual Power was recovered through Skills, it still seriously exceeded the cooling time of the Skills.

And forcibly releasing Skills during the cooling time would cause some damage to the Soul.

Of course, with the Immortal Soul, such damage would be repaired quickly, but during the repair period, this kind of fatigue would appear.

Baiyi took out a bottle of azure Potion from the Demon Realm and drank it. His Soul suddenly became incredibly pure, and the damage was swiftly repaired.

Soul Purifying Potion.

He originally had one bottle of this Potion, and after obtaining those Soul Crystal Cores from Sabo, he made some extra for backup.

The fear was that during the transformation of the Divine Abomination, his Soul would be eroded.

And now... it’s just right.

After drinking the Potion, spatial fluctuations flickered around Baiyi, and he directly appeared at the Teleportation Tower of Dongwu City.

He chose the Magic Teleportation Array and started the teleportation to the Capital City.

He still couldn’t travel across Federation Space like Luo Men, not because his Power wasn’t sufficient, but because he lacked the related knowledge.

He had three purposes for going to the Capital City this time.

First was asking Luo Men about the density of Magic Power, the second was to visit the Sword Saint to consult Luo Men’s technique of crossing the continent, and lastly... he would know after meeting with the Sword Saint.

The spatial traversal quickly stopped, and Baiyi stepped out of the Teleportation Tower.

Due to Dongwu City’s disconnection, there was anxiety and discussion throughout the Capital City, but not much commotion.

After all, the Border City was still too distant for the Capital City.

However, once the network over there was restored, it was expected to cause some excitement.

Baiyi’s appearance drew the eyes of the surrounding crowd, some showing fear, some resentment, and some admiration.

Humans are complex beings. Even though each city was thriving now, and while it cost Transcendents more to hire civilians, correspondingly, civilians’ wages increased, and so did those of the Transcendents.

The demand determined the value. Originally the efficiency of ten civilians could match one Bronze Lower Tier, yet the wages of ten civilians were not even one-tenth of that of the Bronze.

So, many chose to employ civilians, but now, as the civilians’ wages soared a hundredfold, those capitalists or shops preferred to hire Transcendents.

Consequently, their wages increased, and most civilian jobs in the previous year came from official positions in various factories, roles that civilians could fulfill, and even new positions established through official financial losses for reforms.

But with the spread of Arcane Magic, Extraordinary Power gradually permeated the populace.

A new economic system was rapidly forming, during which the only losers were all major City Lords and capitalists, including Dongwu City’s revenue, which significantly declined.

However, in the second year after the establishment of the new system, the Federation further refined many laws, and everything began to improve.

The rise in prices was inevitable, but it did not include the incredibly cheap food, consequently greatly enhancing the living standards of civilians.

They could access more Extraordinary Knowledge, leading to a virtuous cycle.

Moreover, with the inclusion of quality population from three Small Worlds, when the Federation’s population reached nine hundred million a year ago, all major cities turned profitable.

Those quality populations, exposed to Extraordinary Knowledge and feeling Xia’s Magic Power, once again caused a surge in Transcendents.

Various phenomena seemed to confirm that the Federation was moving in a positive direction.

Yet this did not stop some benefit-losers from resenting Baiyi and Diane. It’s impossible for people to be of one accord.

If such situations arise, one could refer to the Curse Doctor, as perhaps there is a God’s power at work behind the scenes.

Ignoring those people, some members of the Law Enforcement Team quickly reported Baiyi’s movements up the chain.

But the next moment, spatial fluctuations flickered, and when he reappeared, he found himself in a serene structure, soldiers guarding around, preventing any Transcendents from disturbing those resting within.

Baiyi paid no heed to the curious looks from the soldiers and calmly gave a slight bow: ”Baiyi of Dongwu City, requesting an audience with the Sword Saint, my lord.”

His voice didn’t utilize Magic Power, yet Baiyi was certain that the Sword Saint could hear him.

Sure enough, after about three seconds, the soldiers guarding the entrance to the Sword Master Mansion slightly stepped aside, gesturing an invitation.

Baiyi stepped inside, just crossing a door.

He was enveloped in an immensely dense concentration of Natural Elements.

Baiyi’s Bright Side Charm had reached 36 points, which, outside of some Mages focusing on the primary Charm Attribute, and unique professions like Summoners, was quite high.

This represented his affinity with Natural Elements and was a composite of appearance, aura, and other factors.

Thus, the dense Natural Elements around him danced joyfully by his side, much like a carefree group of Little Elves, unconsciously uplifting one’s mood.

Occasionally, some mischievous Flame Elements gathered, forming sparks in the void, chasing after the Wood Element, only to be scattered by a slap from the Water Element.

Baiyi could even sense a hint of helplessness in the Water Element’s actions, akin to an elder sister reprimanding a naughty younger brother.

Baiyi’s eyes were filled with anticipation; if such elemental density could nurture Extraordinary Plants or store wine, wouldn’t the Quality increase exponentially?

He quickly walked into the backyard, where under a canopy of Natural Elements and the Tree of Life, an elderly man reclined in a rocking chair.
