Chapter 514: Chapter 333: Secret Realm Upgrade, Changes in Army Spirit (4K)
Previously, she had asked friends from the Pioneer Group whether anyone had seen a black giant that resembled \'[Image.jpg]\'.
This was already her helping out.
"Ahaha, it\'s nothing, really. I\'ve already stepped into the Legendary Realm. Wherever I pioneer is pioneering. Heading north from Shiling Town and excavating some clues along the way is like killing two birds with one stone."
"You don\'t have to be moved. Just remember me when you\'re rich and famous."
She waved her hand, indicating it was no big deal.
The way she talked about finding clues seemed casual, as if it was just something done on the side. The main reason for her departure was her promotion to the Legendary status, which qualified her to explore dangerous areas in the wilderness one by one.
However, Mu Yuan was already quite familiar with the Legendary Realm.
To those newly advanced to the Legendary level, the veil of heaven and earth began to lift, revealing some truths and mysteries. They often gain new insights into their own abilities. This is when legends are in a rapid enhancement phase, and they usually do not travel far, opting instead to take the time to strengthen their own power.
Shen Linglong\'s actions were something he couldn\'t refuse.
Having a Legendary Lord out searching for clues was indeed efficient, a task no single legend or a few fourth-order strongmen could match.
He could only accept the favor and repay it another day.
Shen Linglong murmured as she stared at the map, "I heard there was a legendary monster sighting in Shiling Town. If I travel north from there, I should be able to find some legendary monsters too, hehehehe, my broadsword is already itching for a fight. Let me think, how many legendary beings do I need to slay to make it onto this year\'s Legendary Lords\' kill leaderboard?"
"Work hard, heave-ho, and let my great name resound through Tianyuan and the wilderness!"
"Hehehehehehe—"
Mu Yuan: "..."
Could it be that he was overthinking it?
...
Before leaving the Secret Realm, Mu Yuan sold Shen Linglong a remnant soul of an Excellence two-star strength-type troop at a friendly price—meaning, he sold it cheaply for soul crystals or basic materials rather than exchanging it for high-order treasures.
Shen Linglong was a rich Great Lord with a mine at home.
In the ranks of Great Lords, she was considered \'poorer,\' but she was still a Great Lord, vastly wealthier than Mr. Mu.
The speed of a lord\'s family\'s combat power growth may vary greatly, but the accumulation of wealth requires a gradual process.
The longer the time, the higher the level of the domain, the more special products, the faster the wealth accumulates.
All this hinges on time.
If we set aside epic structures, high-order buildings, and a whole host of high-order treasures and only consider the value of soul crystals and common items, Mu Yuan might even be poorer than many senior lords.
For now, because the Soul Sand Mine south of the Tianyuan Territory is too close to the heart of the domain, its mining could increase the risk of exposing the heart of the domain, Mu Yuan is not ready to use it yet.
His daily sales of various high-order treasures and remnant souls keep the supply of soul sand and soul crystals sufficient.
Of course, he still needs to buy reserves of various kinds of war supplies, construction materials, infantry spirit hatchling nurturing materials, and cultivation materials, as well as legendary breakthrough auxiliary treasures, and so on.
His daily expenses are also enormous, and he always wishes he had more cash flow.
Stepping out of the Secret Realm, Mu Yuan looked towards another wide-open Secret Realm\'s Gate.
\'Notice: The Black Wasteland has fully absorbed the Secret Realm Upgrade Stones, escalating its level from LV1 to LV4.\'
Perhaps because the Black Wasteland was initially at such a low level, a single Upgrading Stone caused this Secret Realm to undergo earth-shattering changes.
"The output of the Black Wasteland before the upgrade was indeed a bit low."
The Black Wasteland is a resource-producing Secret Realm, previously yielding about 10,000g of Soul Sand per day, equivalent to 10 soul crystals.
This output is not low, akin to the daily production of a small Soul Sand Mine that\'s mined non-violently. Additionally, the Secret Realm has the advantage of being close to home and inexhaustible compared to a Soul Sand Mine.
In comparison, it\'s streets ahead of a small Soul Sand Mine.
Yet the Tianyuan Territory has high expenses and does not rely heavily on farming income. This mode of operation is not very healthy; a break in the balance chain could significantly impact the domain\'s economy. Mu Yuan still hopes to one day live the true lord\'s life, earning money without doing anything, just lying back and enjoying.
After all, he\'s seen some old lords living luxuriously with dozens of maids in their mansions, having everything handed to them. Why doesn\'t he experience the same?
Possibly, it\'s because his moral standards are too high.
\'Black Wasteland\'
\'Description: This Secret Realm captures a segment of historical projection, reflected within. The monsters in the Secret Realm will refresh intermittently. Killing the monsters will not yield remnant souls, but will produce a certain quantity of Soul Sand.\'
Passing through the spatial curtain, Mu Yuan entered.
The sky here was dark and gloomy, the earth bore a reddish-brown hue, dry and ruined, permeated with a desolate and eerie air.
Great Lord Shepherd surveyed the area and then, with hands behind his back, rose towards the sky.
Before the upgrade, the Black Wasteland was not very large; standing at the entrance, one could see the misty edges of the Secret Realm. After the upgrade, its size had clearly expanded several-fold.
The area greatly surpassed the adjacent \'Elf Secret Realm.\' Of course, the two Secret Realms belong to different categories, so their size is not directly comparable. The Elf Secret Realm belongs to the Lord of Han Yue City, and its level is certainly much higher than four.
"The monsters of the Fallen Devils within the Secret Realm used to be just at the Apprentice Level, but now they start at the First-order professional level, with occasionally a few second-order Elites encountered."
