Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 105: Chapter 104: Tier Seven Territory Essence

The Saint Radiance King is the king of the Holy Radiance Kingdom.

Among the ten duchies he rules, the Great Wilderness is just one of them.

Others might not know, but these Tier Nine Lords are fully aware of what these three words represent.

The Holy Radiance Kingdom’s ability to govern so many duchies is not just due to its vast power, but more so because the Saint Radiance King’s own strength far surpasses that of all the duchy kings!

That’s right!

This Saint Radiance King possesses a terrifying power that overrides all the duchy kings!

At the thought of his might, the Tier Nine Lords below dared not speak.

They all knew that this matter was beyond their capabilities, much less something they could meddle in.

“Alright, all of you may withdraw for now. I will inform you if anything comes up.”

Ji Xinghe, seeming still frail after recovering from a serious injury, had no interest in speaking and merely waved his hand before closing his eyes to rest on the throne.

The lords below, seeing this, dared not disturb him.

After bidding farewell, they left the palace one by one, returning to their respective territories, until only Ji Xinghe was left in the palace.

The palace was silent, with only a faint sigh echoing after a long pause.

At this moment,

News of the two kings dying in battle had spread to the kingdom channel, causing a complete uproar in the chat channel.

Exclamations and disbelief crazily surged forth.

Two Tier Ten kings had actually died in battle!

If it weren’t for the two duchy lords coming forward to verify, they wouldn’t have believed it to be true!

Let alone Lin You, who was rendered speechless by this continuous stream of bad news.

He finally realized why the fortune of the Primordial Continent had been deprived.

It turned out to be due to the upheaval in the Tier Ten battlefield!

This was terrifying beyond measure.

Is it really like they said, that the Primordial Continent is being targeted?

If that’s true, then that’s terrible. He just reached the Primordial Continent and wanted to live a bit longer.

But on second thought, he was only Tier Six and seemingly unable to change this situation. All he could do was quickly enhance his own strength.

“Sigh, I better focus on gathering the Power of Faith first…”

With a sigh, Lin You was pulled back to reality.

His current Power of Faith was just slightly over a hundred points.

Although Yellow Sand City was gradually developing, it would take some time to reach the scale of other cities, so he would have to accelerate the pace.

The defensive strength of Yellow Sand City was also crucial.

Although he settled the trouble caused by cultivators today, it also made him aware of Yellow Sand City’s shortcomings: too few cultivators!

The top combat power within the city was just Wei Gang, a Tier Five, without a single Tier Six worthy of mention.

It’s alright when he’s present, but what if troublemakers come when he and the species are not around?

Apart from economic development, improving population quality is necessary.

Of course, more importantly, nurturing his subordinates is key to assigning them significant responsibilities.

Thinking of this, Lin You instructed the Demon Consort Dragon to speed up and rush back to the territory.

The first thing he did upon returning to the territory was opening the construction interface and starting to search through it.

Lin You remembered there were some newly unlocked buildings for the citizens.

Soon, he found a suitable building.

[Building Name: Cultivation Field (Affiliate Territory)]

[Building Level: Tier One]

[Building Introduction: Can increase citizens’ cultivation speed; the higher the level, the better the effect.]

[Cultivation Speed: 110%]

[Daily Consumption: 100 Magic Energy]

[Construction Requirements: 100 Wood, 100 Stone, 200 Magic Energy]

…

A Tier One Cultivation Field could enhance the citizens’ cultivation speed by 10%, which was quite effective.

And since the construction cost wasn’t high, Lin You had just enough resources left to build it.

Once the mining team was up and running, he could gradually upgrade this building, and its effect would surely increase significantly, even attracting cultivators.

Determined, Lin You opened the building interface, and a semi-transparent light screen appeared before him.

It turned out to be the floor plan of Yellow Sand City!

It clearly showed which areas were buildable and which were not, even indicating the pre-construction areas, making it very convenient to use.

“Let’s build it…here.”

After observing for a while, Lin You finally chose an empty spot beside the city center square to build.

Meanwhile,

Within Yellow Sand City Square,

A dazzling light suddenly appeared over the empty spot he chose, and wooden and stone structures quickly assembled, gradually forming the facade of an ancient pavilion.

The sudden commotion startled the passersby, who all stopped and started discussing from a distance.

Even Xue Changgui, who was negotiating with merchants at home, came to the square with his men.

“Is this… built by the Lord?”

With his experience, Xue Changgui immediately recognized this as Lin You’s handiwork.

The merchants and cultivators from other prosperous cities quickly identified the building too.

“Seems like a Cultivation Field; I’ve seen it in Profound Yang City.”

“A Cultivation Field? A great place, perfect for cultivation recovery after hunting in the Gobi.”

“Just hope it’s not too expensive.”

For affiliated territory buildings, apart from construction resource costs, they required daily maintenance expenses.

So lords usually set usage fees to earn Demon Crystals and balance income and maintenance costs.

Having just completed the Cultivation Field, Lin You was only beginning to understand this aspect.

However, since there weren’t many cultivators in Yellow Sand City at the moment, he wasn’t greedy and set a fee of one Demon Crystal per hour.

As for the guards of Yellow Sand City, they received corresponding free cultivation time according to their job level, but not excessively.

After all, the Tier One Cultivation Field only had ten cultivation rooms.

To gain more rooms, additional mining and upgrades would be necessary.

“Not bad, I’ll continue upgrading once the ore reserves increase tomorrow.”

With resources in the territory nearly depleted, except for the fast-rising 160,000 Magic Energy, Lin You had consumed almost all of it.

The good news was that the mining team arranged by Xu Zhong was ready to begin digging the next day.

To this end, he specially sent two Wood Calamity Turtles with strong protective abilities to prevent cave collapses.

This way, the citizens could mine with peace of mind.

After finishing all this, Lin You left the territory, found Wei Gang, who was recovering from injuries, and had him arrange reliable subordinates to investigate information on Mo Yuan City and also gather recent development insights from Xue Changgui regarding Yellow Sand City.

It wasn’t until nightfall that a sudden notification sounded in Lin You’s mind as he returned to the territory.

[Congratulations, your outstanding performance in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms has accumulated to the slaying of 110 Otherworldly Lords.]

[Received special reward from the King of Great Wilderness: 110,000 Magic Energy and Tier Seven Territory Essence x1. Keep up the good work.]

…

“Tier Seven Territory Essence?”

Lin You paused in his steps, full of surprise.

Besides the Tier Seven Territory Essence, he was directly awarded 110,000 Magic Energy!

The King of Great Wilderness was indeed generous.

Now Lin You’s Magic Energy soared to 270,000, instantly making him wealthy.

“Just right, I can use it for some experimentation.”

With Magic Energy in surplus, Lin You’s thoughts naturally became more active.

After tidying up the manor and enjoying the dinner just delivered by the citizens, he headed under the Tree of Life with a serious expression.

Previously,

He underwent almost a thousand mutations to produce a Royal Family Plant.

This time, with so much Magic Energy, he must mutate again to produce a fourth Royal Family Plant!
