First Lord of Earth

The lord's mansion.

Xia Tian, ​​whose consciousness returned to his body, looked at the translucent "five-clawed dragon" swimming in the palm of his hand. It looked majestic and majestic, and the black color exuded the majesty of an emperor and exuded a faint golden light!

[The Qi of the Ancestral Dragon (Super Grade·Gold)]

[Explanation] The "extraordinary treasure" is condensed from the magical power and luck of the First Emperor Ying Zheng. It can improve and strengthen some things through integration, including but not limited to weapons, rare objects, skills, and physique.

[Remarks] It is recommended to wait until "Heaven and Earth is unlocked" before using it to upgrade "Dragon's Secret Book"!

"So it's not the 'ancestral dragon' I thought?"

That's right, if it is the "ancestral dragon" in myths and legends, its inheritance is a little too out of line at the current stage!

"But, for the Chinese people."

"The inheritance of the First Emperor is, in a sense, more meaningful and valuable than the Ancestral Dragon."

Xia Tian's eyes flashed.

Although the Chinese call themselves "descendants of the dragon", the latter are only spiritual "totems"!

The Chinese people's belief in the so-called gods has never been as firm as imagined.

The true worship of faith has always been about the ancestors who exposed themselves to frost, cut down thorns, and created a glorious civilization of five thousand years. The so-called "dragon" also respects the sages in history such as Fuxi, Emperor Xuanyuan, and Qin Shihuang.

"Well, using this 'Ancestral Dragon's Qi' to strengthen the "Dragon's Secret Book" is indeed the best choice... If what is expected is true, the territory's 'shield' will disappear in two days, which will most likely be the law of heaven and earth. It's time to 'unlock' the level cap..."

With longing, Xia Tian absorbed this ancestral dragon energy into his body.

"However, this last game unexpectedly received a 'Super Grade·Gold' rating. Now it should be no problem to enter the top ten!"

There was some excitement on Xia Tian's face.

You must know that there are a total of ten "Super Hero Challenges". In the first four games, Zhao Yun, Hua Tuo, Jia Xu, and Gao Shun represented the territory and all received "Super Gold" ratings!

Although the five challenges in the middle failed to get the Super Gold rating, they benefited from the rapid growth in strength in the territory in recent days, and the various outstanding people, most of whom had great potential, and very powerful talents and characteristics, such as Wu Song, Pao Ding, Zhu Youjian... Even with his full exertion, he successfully obtained the "golden" rating that ordinary lords would be jealous of!

Although, he failed to attract the attention of super heroes again.

But it also fixed the final challenge results of the territory at "five super and five hardware".

With such a record, Xia Tian is not arrogant.

Even if the number of human territories is still at the billion level, my territory is at least 80% sure to enter the top ten and be qualified to be recruited by a super hero!

And the good news doesn't stop there.

"Sir, you're out... Just now when Commander Hua Rong went to 'Wanmei Villa' to move things, he discovered a metamorphosis-level creature called 'Ice Silkworm' in the snowy mountains. It can feed on ice and snow and spit out food that can be dyed. , the 'ice silk', which is warm in winter, cool in summer, and very tough, has now obtained a lot of ice silkworm eggs. When they hatch, the soldiers' clothing problem should be solved to a great extent."

When Xia Tian walked out of the lord's mansion, waiting for the "challenge to end".

Jia Xu walked over with a few translucent "insect eggs" that looked like ice crystals in his hand, with a delighted smile on his face.

Since the number of people recruited from the inn was more than expected, the territory's existing resources were somewhat short.

Therefore, after Ximen Chuixue presented "Wanmei Villa" as a gift, Xia Tian was not polite and sent people up the mountain to move down the useful materials, including tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans from the village.

However, during the process of moving, I unexpectedly gained an unexpected discovery. I discovered a kind of mortal creature without much aggression - ice silkworm.

Although, he had already opened the blueprint of the "Weaving Center" from the treasure chest a long time ago, which can make cloth and clothing.

However, due to the limitations of raw materials, the main clothes currently produced are "linen" clothes made by processing wood and rattan grass. Although they have been carefully spun by Pan Jinlian and other female residents of the territory, plus Pan Jinlian's "dexterous hands" characteristics have been blessed It also looks more beautiful underneath.

But the quality is actually not high.

The most important thing is that clothes made of mortal-level materials can no longer meet the combat needs of mortal-level personnel.

During military training, there is often a scene where the clothes on the body fall apart after being slashed with a knife!

So much so that most combatants can only wear armor made of various beast furs and metals. Now they finally found extraordinary silk...

Some "clothing drawings" issued in the past can be arranged for Pan Jinlian and others to produce on a large scale, and the spiritual outlook of the territory can be provided to a higher level.

"In addition, Deputy Commander Wu Zhi has developed pasta cakes mixed with 'peach blossom' and 'plum blossom' petals. After eating, it can help improve the recovery of one's physical strength and mental strength..."

Jia Xu said again.

"It is indeed a happy event. The Wu Dutou family are all talented people and have made great contributions to the territory."

"Well, I've noted this down. I'll reward you in a few days."

Xia Tian nodded.

You know, although Wu Dalang has learned expert-level skills due to the "lord's blessing", he has never seen materials such as "winter plum and peach blossom" before.

Producing this kind of food that is very helpful to the territory depends entirely on his own willingness to study hard and try.

Speaking of which, the territory's population has increased significantly in the past few days, but there has been no food shortage for the time being. Wu Dalang also played a key role, because he has the characteristic of "wrap your belly with pasta (increased satiety of food made)". In the summer, he specializes in cooking from the workshop. He bought a large amount of "flour" in the city for him to make pimple broth, which saved a lot of food!

"When the 'Pearl Rice' is planted in large quantities in a few days, the food problem at the mortal level should be completely solved."

Xia Tian said.

"It's a pity that the pollution of the Moon God Bottle has not been solved yet. Otherwise, we could even try to create spiritual rice at the level of 'transcendence'!"

Xia Tian said with some regret.

The "pearl rice" obtained from Wan Sanqian was only ordinary rice.

Although it is a heterogeneous species, the yield is very large and it matures quickly.

But for people at the metamorphosis level, rice without spiritual power cannot replace the effects of meat from various ferocious beasts.

Xia Tian also tried to buy from the "market", but he could only buy "rice" but not "rice seeds".

Obviously, the other lords are not fools and are unwilling to let the extraordinary resources in their territories lose their competitiveness.

Moreover, perhaps because the "protective shield" is about to disappear, many territories have begun to store grain in the past few days, so that the price of grain has been rising...

"Although there are terracotta warriors and undead soldiers from the Gathering Land in our territory, we cannot be careless. In the next two days, let Wang Ying and other scouts conduct some inspections around the area to see if there are any potential hidden dangers!"

"Also, does Mr. Jia think it is necessary to build another outer wall around the territory?"

Xia Tian looked at Jia Xu.

Because the population has increased so much, the original residential areas in the territory can no longer accommodate people.

Therefore, most of the newly built houses in these days are built outside the walls built in the original territory, lacking safety guarantees.

"Of course it would be better if it can be built... But there is currently a serious shortage of materials. The houses of the new arrivals can only be built with dry wood. The stones needed to build the wall will probably have to be transported from the Black and White Mountains!"

Jia Xu turned over the bamboo slips with a bit of embarrassment on his face.

There is no shortage of stones in the Black and White Mountains, but after mining and transporting them to the territory, even if they use "dragon boats" to transport them by water, it is still very time-consuming.

Moreover, to build a city wall to surround the territory, a huge amount of stones would be needed, and it might not be possible in a short time!

"Don't worry, I have a solution!"

Xia Tian's hand flashed with light, and a cyan "stone" appeared.

"This is the 'Blue Stone Spirit Seed', which is a very special metamorphosis plant. Once it goes down, it can transform the soil in an area into hard stone..."

Xia Tian said with a smile, it was his trophy in the secret realm just now.

"Adults can always come up with these magical things..."

Jia Xu had a look of surprise on his face.

Then he also laughed. He had only heard of planting plants before, but he had never heard of "growing stones".

"Then you can first use the 'Dragon Carp' and 'Stone Man' to dig out the soil to build the prototype of the city wall, and then plant the stones... You will soon have a good city wall, I will arrange it right away!"

"It just so happens that the new arrivals have almost recovered after these two days of repairs. By building the wall as a 'work-for-relief', we can also help them gradually adapt to the working atmosphere of the territory."

As expected of the golden hero, after being surprised, he immediately thought of the best way to use it.

"Well, let Qingwen bring the 'Sun Gold Vase' to cooperate with you!"

Thanks to the rare treasure "Golden Wushi" obtained from Wan Sanqian at the Mysterious Inn, today's "Sun Gold Bottle" has been successfully upgraded to "blue" quality, and the condensed "gold liquid" is also very effective against mortal-level creatures. obvious effect.

In addition, the Black and White Mountains are completely included in the territory, and a large amount of "Sun Black Stone" can be collected and refined. Even though it only takes two days, it is enough to cultivate a batch of extraordinary-level "stones"...

[The Super Hero Challenge is officially over. 】

[Congratulations, your territory has successfully entered the top ten of the human territories. Please enter the ‘secret realm’ as soon as possible to receive the reward! 】

At the same time that Jia Xu left the Lord's Mansion, the reminder of the earth's will also appeared in Xia Tian's mind.

"Sure enough, I did it."

Xia Tian felt very happy in her heart.

Although I had already predicted it, it was still difficult to conceal the excitement when I was truly sure that my territory had entered the top ten among the more than one billion lords in the entire human race!

However, unlike the previous direct distribution of rewards, this time it was actually in a secret realm?

"Enter!"

The next moment, Xia Tian's consciousness came to an extremely empty, dark space like a starry sky, and nine other figures appeared one after another.

However, everyone's clothes and face are in a relatively blurry state. It is impossible to see clearly what nationality they are and it seems impossible to communicate!

And in the middle of the ten people, there were a hundred pieces of flowing light, emitting different colors in the darkness, "strange object embryos" that attracted the eye like stars.

[Reward content, each person can choose one from one hundred "super rare items·embryos". After the world is unlocked, you can refine it into your own magical item! 】

The message of Earth's Will emerges.

"A hundred pieces, that's not bad?"

Xia Tian's eyes lit up.

The previous rewards were "choose one of three" every time.

Although there are choices, the range is undoubtedly too narrow. Now that there are a hundred items, it is obviously easier to choose the items you like!

Xia Tian stared at hundreds of "super rare objects·embryos".

There is a tomb shaped like yellow sand, a tall black stone tablet with a large number of hieroglyphics carved on it, a blood-red magatama, an ancient bronze mirror with reliefs of various creatures on the back, and a flag of the sun, moon and stars hanging on it. Warships, altars made of five-color strange stones...

And every item has very powerful properties.

For example, let’s talk about that bronze mirror that looks very simple and inconspicuous.

[Replication Mirror (Super Grade·Gold)]

[Type] Wonderful objects of heaven and earth·Embryos

[Characteristics] Copy (reflected in a mirror, can copy a certain creature and last for a period of time. Currently, only the body and part of the soul can be copied. After further improving it, memory, supernatural powers, and even supernatural powers can be gradually copied, and improved number of copies)

[Explanation] After choosing to refine it into "Original Miracle Item", you can get a "Mirror Image Clone".

[Remarks 1] "Heaven and Earth Wonders" are special treasures recognized by the will of the Eternal Land. Each heaven and earth wonder has a "unique characteristic" and has extremely high growth potential!

[Note 2] You need to wait until the "Heaven and Earth Limits" are unlocked before you can start "refining".

As Xia Tian watched, its information appeared in his mind.

"Wonderful objects of heaven and earth?"

Xia Tian's eyes moved, this is a new "noun".

According to the information that comes to mind, compared with the remnants of the laws of the own world, which are highly "repetitive" and can be upgraded through swallowing, this "wonderful object of heaven and earth" has a complete "law" and has a "unique" sex".

Its value is far higher than ordinary rare objects!

"In fact, it's more than just value."

"The properties of this bronze mirror alone are completely different from many ordinary strange objects!"

Xia Tian's eyes widened.

You know, this thing is just an "embryo" of a rare object, but it is already very impressive. Once it is fully developed, it will definitely be an "artifact" level!

"No wonder the Will of the Earth only rewards the top ten lords."

"Just because every strange object here belongs to the heritage of the human race on earth. If we give territory to those human races that are not strong enough, in the end, I am afraid they will become enemies..."

Xia Tian suddenly understood.

[Selection begins... Note that if both parties are interested in the same item at the same time, the party with a higher overall ranking will get it! 】

Prompts of Earth's will appear.

Xia Tian's heart moved, and his eyes quickly scanned the one hundred "wonderful objects and embryos" in front of him, looking for the most suitable item to become his "wonderful object".

Now, I regard a "wonderful object of heaven and earth" as my own natal miracle, and my potential is even greater than that of ordinary heroes. However, in theory, only one "natural miraculous object" can exist at the same time, connected to my own destiny. If one is prosperous, both will be prosperous, and if one is harmed, both will be harmed. Naturally, the more consistent the attributes are, the better.

"My territory mainly follows the route of ancient Eastern culture. Therefore, I will not consider some Western-style strange objects for now!"

Xia Tian's eyes turned and soon landed on a bronze tripod with a simple shape and various shapes of strange beasts and creatures carved on it.

[Demon Refining Cauldron (Super Grade·Gold)]

[Type] Wonderful objects of heaven and earth·Embryos

[Characteristics] Demon refining (after putting creatures into the cauldron, they can be refined into "demon elixirs" with different attributes. The quality of the refined demon elixirs will increase with the improvement of the rare items)

[Explanation] After using it as a natal magical object, various creatures can be imprisoned in it for refining, thereby extracting the pure "essence" for one's own cultivation and improvement.

Good guy, even with such "brutal" strange things, can it be said that it is worthy of being a big foodie empire?

Xia Tian feels eye-opening.

This characteristic is obviously a large version of the "Blade of Vengeance", and compared to the "Blood Pill" refined by the Blade of Vengeance, the side effects of this treasure called the "Demon Refining Cauldron" are almost zero, and any living being can Being able to be put into it for refining is undoubtedly a good choice for lords who decide to take the "conquest" route!

There is another update in the evening, which ends the "novice period" of this book.
