Chapter 727: Chapter 452: Lord’s Mansion LV40, Breakthrough to Sixth Tier! _2

    “`

    That way, if there were any problems, we wouldn’t waste time running back and forth.

    Moreover, the ability would have an even greater role in future conquests.

    Previously, he wanted to use Xiao Guang to achieve ultra-long-distance communication, but unfortunately, due to the Upper Realm’s Heavenly Dao rules, once out of the Land of the Dead, the maximum range was a thousand miles.

    This completely failed to meet his requirements.

    “We need Epic and higher quality treasures and materials to enhance the Spirit.

    We also need Legendary quality treasures: the Heart of a Mental Elemental, the Heart of Dreams, and Dimensional Fragments.”

    The four sisters studied hundreds of methods and at this stage had basically identified these treasures, which would surely elevate their talents, at least to Epic Quality.

    A Legendary quality Heart of a Mental Elemental required killing a Legendary strength Mental Elemental to extract its core.

    Mental Elementals were considered a very special high-level elemental monster, extremely skilled in spirit-type attacks, and could use mind-control skills.

    Often, a single Legendary strength Mental Elemental enslaved a vast army.

    The Heart of Dreams was a substance condensed from the cores of special ancient evergreen trees and required a Druid to carefully extract it without damage.

    It was also considered a very precious treasure, especially for Druids, although it wasn’t too hard to acquire.

    Dimensional Fragments, this was the real trouble, obtaining this item required destroying a Dimensional Space.

    Only when the Dimensional Space was shattered, would they produce Dimensional Fragments.

    To destroy a Dimensional Space, one needed at least Sixth Tier Legendary strength.

    But destruction was just the easiest part; collecting the Dimensional Fragments afterward was the hardest.

    Because when the Dimensional Space collapsed, it twisted into a black hole, devouring the shattered Dimensional Space completely.

    You had to snatch the Dimensional Fragments from the black hole, and one careless move could cost you your life.

    Even Sixth Tier Legendary strength couldn’t withstand the swallowing power of a black hole.

    “Are all three materials required, or just getting one would suffice?”

    “Any one of them should elevate our talents to Epic Quality, but if we want to upgrade to Legendary Quality later, all three treasures are essential.”

    There was no need to be polite with Zi Liyuan, so it’s best to state all the needed treasures in one go and prepare early.

    “Alright, I’ll help you collect these treasures. Yuer, have you prepared all the materials and resources I need?”

    Nodding, Zi Liyuan changed the subject and inquired.

    “Of course, with the existing materials, we kept those needed to upgrade the LV40 Lord’s Mansion, and the rest are packed in Space Sphere number one, ready for you to take anytime.”

    “The territory still needs your management.”

    Watching Fan Yuer and Fan Binger leave, Zi Liyuan gave some more instructions before riding on Dilys out of the Land of the Dead, flying directly westward.

    A hundred-kilometer bay sped by quickly under the speed of the Black Dragon King.

    Along the way, he discovered several small islands, but they were uninhabited by Humans and instead were havens for monsters.

    As he approached the coastline, a massive fortress-style castle appeared before him.

    When they were twenty li away, a squad of twelve Gryphon Knights from the castle flew up, intercepting them and taking on a surrounding formation.

    “Who goes there? What is your purpose?”

    “The newly descended Grand Lord of the Land of the Dead, Zi Liyuan, here to visit Grand Lord Ouyang Pojun!”

    “Ah, it’s the Grand Lord! However, you have gone in the wrong direction; to visit Grand Lord Ouyang Pojun, you should head northwest. This territory is under the control of Grand Lord Wu Zhaoyi.”

    “I see; thank you for the information. However, Grand Lord Wu Zhaoyi is also on my visit list. May I trouble you to inform him for me?”

    “No problem, Grand Lord Zi Liyuan, please follow me.”

    This Gryphon Knight Captain, though polite, did not invite Zi Liyuan to descend into the city; instead, he guided him to a pavilion outside the city, built on a mountain-top platform.

    Clearly, the other party was not easily trusting Zi Liyuan’s words, yet, due to the Dragon King’s overwhelming presence and his unreadable strength, the Gryphon Captain opted for politeness to avoid conflict.

    Who wouldn’t want to live well rather than die senselessly?

    A simple report might even earn him credit.

    Indeed, that was the case; as soon as he reported to his superior, he immediately received new orders to welcome the visitor to the flat-top mountain outside the city and entertain him warmly.

    Meanwhile, from the coastal fort, another squad of Gryphon Knights took off towards the flat-top mountain.

    Their voices carried from a distance.

    “Haha, when the rainbow light descended a hundred kilometers offshore yesterday, we knew a Grand Lord was coming. Little did we expect to meet the Grand Lord so soon today, truly making Tianhai City shine with glory!”

    The voice was hearty and bold. Before the Gryphons even touched down, a figure flashed to the pavilion’s entrance.

    “Rushing over at the behest of a friend surnamed Ying, I’m here to visit Grand Lords Ouyang Pojun, Zhao Siyi, and Wu Zhaoyi.”

    With just these words, Zi Liyuan managed to make the previously bold Tianhai City Lord’s smile freeze.

    He who governed a region naturally was the trusted subordinate of the local Grand Lord and was aware of many internal matters.

    The surname Ying referred to an immensely significant force.

    In an instant, the formerly boisterous Tianhai City Lord’s smile turned exceptionally gentle, and he immediately sent information to his boss, Grand Lord Wu Zhaoyi.

    The message was highlighted in red and bolded, sent repeatedly three times.

    The same routine, yet this time it took even less time for another squad of Gryphon Knights to fly out from Tianhai City, heading swiftly toward the flat-top mountain.

    Their voices reached before their figures.

    “Welcome, Grand Lord Zi Liyuan, to grace us with your presence. Student Wu Zhaoyi salutes you!”

    “Haha, greetings, Senior Wu Zhaoyi.”

    With a simple exchange, the relationship between the two sides grew closer.

    Speaking of this Senior Wu Zhaoyi, he was also a legendary figure from the Dragon Academy, similar to Zi, a force within the entire school.

    Alas, born a commoner, upon entering the Sea of Realms, he met with severe suppression.

    “Junior Zi has great skills; Senior has already informed Brother Pojun and Sister Siyi, and they will be here soon.”

    In the small pavilion, Wu Zhaoyi first chatted with Zi Liyuan for a few moments, then waved at the Tianhai City Lord and the group of subordinates.

    Understanding the gesture, the city lord took his subordinates, retreating a hundred meters away to guard the area.

    “We’ve been looking forward to your arrival. Brother Zi, if you have any commands, just say the word. As long as we can do it, we’ll stop at nothing!”

    Damn it, being repressed by the Wild Boar Skin dynasty, especially by that old hag, these years made Wu Zhaoyi extremely aggrieved.

    As a once-great talent, he never imagined that upon arriving at the first layer of the Sea of Realms, he would meet with such humiliation from the Wild Boar Skin.

    Not only were they suppressing him, but they also blocked access to the Divine Demonic Tower, preventing their entry.

    As a result, Wu Zhaoyi’s tiers had been stuck at the peak of the Fifth Tier for years, unable to break through to the Sixth Tier.

    The frustration was immense, and now with the Upper Realm’s Four Ancient Empires sending true heirs, the downfall of the Wild Boar Skin dynasty seemed imminent.

    The pent-up monstrous fury of years could finally erupt like a volcano, to burn these damned wild boar skins!

    “Brother, this time, I am here to trade for a batch of rare materials with the older brothers and sisters to upgrade the Lord’s Mansion level.”

    “Might I inquire to what level, Brother?”

    “Up to LV40 Lord’s Mansion.”

    As soon as Zi Liyuan finished speaking, he saw disbelief and shock displayed on Wu Zhaoyi’s face.

    “Brother, do you have the Sixth Tier cultivation method?”

    “Of course!”

    It was evident that such an urgent need for upgrade materials at such a critical level could only mean one thing if thought through.

    “Very well, becoming acquainted with Brother today, these rare materials are a gift from your elder brother!”
