Xu Chu watched in disbelief as his brother led the entire Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry toward the mine in a flash.
Song Yubai collected the corpses, and Xu Ding went to the mine to gather ores. Only Xu Chu remained behind.
“Old Li, come out!”
Xu Chu’s face was solemn as he shouted.
“I’m here!”
When Li Xin heard Xu Chu calling him, he hastily emerged from the ranks of the Mystic Yang soldiers, wearing a puzzled expression.
“Hey, Old Li, do you reckon there’s anything valuable left with the Forest race?” Xu Chu wrapped his hand around Li Xin’s shoulder and asked in a serious tone.
He was determined not to be outdone by his older brother or Song Yubai. Zhang Xiang, who was accompanying Song Yubai, was not part of this competition.
“General, if there’s anything valuable left, I believe it should be in that direction.”
Hearing Xu Chu’s question, Li Xin’s eyes glinted. Then, he pointed in the direction of the tallest tree in the entire Forest race’s territory. That direction lay behind the palace, concealed among the trees.
“Let’s go and take a look.”
Xu Chu trusted Li Xin’s observation. He could find things that others could not.
Of course, it wasn’t anything extraordinary. It was just that Li Xin possessed a unique ability to observe things differently from others. He could spot details that often went unnoticed by others.
Before long, Xu Chu led Li Xin and the other Mystic Yang soldiers to the location Li Xin had pointed out.
“This is…”
Xu Chu’s eyes narrowed, and a look of realization appeared on his face.
No wonder he hadn’t spotted them on the battlefield—they were all gathered here.
Before him stood the Forest race’s Giant War Trees. However, they appeared to have considerably diminished in vitality and were unmistakably withered.
“That’s strange.”
Xu Chu was a little surprised. However, he did not know how to deal with these Giant War Trees.
After all, they were clearly controlled by the Forest race, but he didn’t know the
methods to control them.
“General, look over there.”
Li Xin stretched out his finger and pointed at a stone platform not far away. Green blocks were placed there one after another.
“Let’s go and take a look.”
Xu Chu’s eyes lit up. His intuition told him that the green blocks on the stone platform had something to do with the Giant War Trees.
Soon, the two of them arrived near the stone platform. Looking at the green blocks on the stone platform, Xu Chu’s face was filled with curiosity.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that they also exuded the fragrance of wood.
“One, two, three… 41?”
Li Xin’s eyes brightened with excitement. He examined the Giant War Trees nearby and deduced that their number matched the count on the stone platform.
“General, if I’m not wrong, these should be the things that control the Giant
War Trees!”
Li Xin said to Xu Chu with certainty.
Although this was merely a conjecture, the quantity seemed remarkably coincidental. The wood-like fragrance emanating from these green blocks was undeniably genuine.
“Shall we try?”
Xu Chu picked up a green block and injected pure qi into it.
Rumble!
As soon as he injected pure qi, he saw a Giant War Tree move. Moreover, he realized that he seemed to be able to control it.
“Hahaha, Old Li, great job!”
Xu Chu patted Li Xin and laughed.
The Giant War Trees were all equivalent to Innate Level 9. Back in Green Lotus City, they had relied on Spiritual Energy Cannons a large number of Flame Summits to deal with them.
In front of him, there were a total of 41 trees. This find was undeniably a more substantial harvest than what Song Yubai and the others had acquired.
“Congratulations, General!”
Li Xin was overjoyed when he heard Xu Chu’s words.
“Don’t fret, kid. I won’t steal your credit. The lord will reward you for this!”
When Xu Chu saw Li Xin’s expression, he could not help but smile.
“Let’s go and see if we can find anything else.”
Xu Chu put all the green blocks into his spatial bag without controlling the Giant War Trees.
Subsequently, the two of them continued to explore the Forest race’s territory to discover any valuable items.
On the other side, Mei Changge and Ye Yan returned to Green Lotus City. Mei Changge looked for Wan Chuan in the restaurant.
“You came back just in time.”
Wan Chuan saw Mei Changge and Ye Yan and said with a smile.
“Elder Wan.”
“Take a seat.”
Wan Chuan waved his hand, signaling them to dispense with the formalities.
“Elder Wan, try this Spirit Wine.”
Mei Changge sat down with Ye Yan. He took out three bottles of Spirit Wine from the Blessed Land and handed them to Wan Chuan and Ye Yan.
“Oh, did you brew this?”
Seeing the lotus flower engraved on the bottle, Wan Chuan raised his eyebrows and asked with interest.
This wine bottle was clearly made of jade. Although ordinary jade was not worth much, its appearance was very unique.
A White Jade Lotus was engraved on the bottle.
“That’s right, Elder Wan, this is a specialty of my Blessed Land—spirit Wine brewed from White Jade Lotuses.”
Mei Changge said with a smile.
This Spirit Wine had actually been freshly brewed not long ago. It was concocted by the individuals in the Creation Camp using the White Jade Lotus.
“I have to try it.”
Wan Chuan’s curiosity was piqued, and he uncorked the bottle, releasing a fragrant aroma of alcohol.
The aroma of alcohol sparked excitement in Wan Chuan’s eyes. It not only carried the fragrance of wine but also exuded a distinct spiritual energy.
Wan Chuan poured a cup and drank it. Then, he closed his eyes and tasted it carefully.
“Not bad at all. Excellent wine.”
Soon, Wan Chuan opened his eyes and praised with a smile.
“This wine enhances the physique of the human body. It even has a healing effect.’
Wan Chuan looked at Mei Changge and said in surprise.
He could sense a slight increase in his physique. It was surprising.
When Ye Yan heard Wan Chuan’s words, he also poured out a glass of wine and drank it.
Soon after, he felt spiritual energy constantly washing his body, vaguely enhancing his physique.
“Boss, this Spirit Wine is impressive. I have a feeling that if I were to down another eight bottles, my physique would improve by 10%!”
Ye Yan’s eyes lit up as he looked at Mei Changge.
“That’s right. This is the specialty of the White Jade Lotus Wine.”
Mei Changge said with a smile.
The White Jade Lotus, to begin with, had the ability to transform one’s skin, essentially altering one’s physique.
Now that it was used to brew Spirit Wine, this unique property was naturally integrated into the beverage.
Initially, when the Creation Camp began brewing, the results weren’t particularly impressive. However, they improved the formula by incorporating several more spiritual plants.
After a month of brewing, the first batch of White Jade Lotus Wine was officially brewed.
Moreover, the wine was divided into three grades by the Creation Camp.
High-grade, middle-grade, and low-grade.
Since Mei Changge intended to sell it, he had meticulously categorized it into different grades within the Creation Camp.
As for the three bottles of White Jade Lotus Wine on the table, they were high-grade.
“How was it? It’s not too bad, right?”
Mei Changge smiled and looked at Ye Yan.
“And it can improve your complexion!”
Mei Changge said to Ye Yan and without paying attention to his reaction, he inquired of Wan Chuan, “Elder Wan, did you make me look for you because you intend to leave now?”
On the side, Ye Yan continued to inspect his skin. Although it had darkened slightly, it didn’t require any enhancement, did it? Besides, his skin had been entirely influenced by the Blessed Land, causing it to appear this way.
“That’s right. You’ve already dealt with the Forest race. It’s about time for me to leave this place.”
Wan Chuan nodded and spoke again.
“You’re already aware of the Great Xia’s Dark Wall, but I recommend that you spend some time developing within Desolate Forest. Then, use the Great Xia’s Dark Wall as your starting point and extend your presence into No Man’s Land,” Wan Chuan advised.
“Furthermore, although there are very few opportunities for the stargate token to drop in this area, it’s not impossible.”
“You needn’t be concerned about the fundamental resources provided by the Great Xia Kingdom. These provisions aren’t solely offered by you. Once you assume the role of a lord, they will be at your disposal.”
Wan Chuan’s tone was calm.
The Great Xia’s Dark Wall served as the defense line for the Great Xia Kingdom, and conflicts occurred there on a daily basis.
It wasn’t just Transcendents; there were also individuals in the Dharma realm. However, they struggled to withstand the relentless assaults from the foreign races.
However, recently, the Great Xia Kingdom changed its mind and began to let the various academies and even humans in the Dharma realm enter No Man’s
Land to build their territories. It attracted the attention of many foreign races.
In a short period of time, the Great Xia Kingdom began to let the new
Transcendents invest in their territory at the border of the Great Xia Kingdom. They tried to nurture Transcendent lords so as to attack the foreign races.
“Don’t worry, Elder Wan. I understand.”
Mei Changge listened to Wan Chuan’s explanation with a nod of concurrence. He felt confident and wasn’t in a rush to venture into the Dark Wall teeming with foreign races.
The presence of that wall had given him the best chance to develop.
“As for you, Ye Yan..
Wan Chuan looked at Ye Yan with a curious expression.
He did not expect Ye Yan to come here instead of becoming a lord or even going to the new Blue Star Academy.
“Yes, Elder Wan?”
Upon hearing Wan Chuan mention him, Ye Yan adopted a serious expression, resembling a diligent student eagerly anticipating Wan Chuan’s advice. “Forget it. Everyone has their own ideas. But you do have good taste, kid.” Wan Chuan shook his head slightly and praised Ye Yan.
“Alright, I’ve told you everything I need to. I have to return to the Blue Star
Academy. I don’t know what Elder Lin needs me to do.” Wan Chuan stood up and said to Mei Changge.
“Elder Wan, take these.”
When Mei Changge saw that Wan Chuan was about to leave, he took out a spatial bag..
