Chapter 622: Chapter 374: The Counterattack of Living Beings (5.4K)_2
"Speaking of which, Featherman Valley, the Elves' Natural Garden, and the Giant Ridge of the Giants... are they all similar types of Secret Realms?"
Mu Yuan was not sure how extensive the Natural Garden and Giant Ridge were, but Duo Lai had described the environment of Featherman Valley, and he felt that his own Dragon Mound Fertile Land was even larger.
As an independent, complete Secret Realm, Dragon Mound Fertile Land naturally possessed the ability to establish several entrances and exits, similar to Featherman Valley.
A Secret Realm is like a giant tree, rooting itself in the spatial realm of the current Tianyuan Territory.
Its roots spread out, sometimes reaching dozens or even hundreds of kilometers away.
However, constructing additional space passages requires technical support, something that Lord Shepherd cannot simply achieve with a snap of his fingers. The technical requirements are quite high. Of course, Tianyuan has professionals in this field, such as Isloa, but... let's discuss this matter later.
"Now that Tianyuan City has been exposed, there is no need to conceal it any longer. In the future, Tianyuan City may welcome many foreign visitors or probe with unfriendly intentions..."
He pondered.
Even if Tianyuan City were to be opened up to outsiders, it would still maintain restricted areas as in the past; he didn't believe any infiltrators could penetrate the core areas. Nevertheless, safety comes first, and he now had a more secure option.
That is, to construct or relocate some important buildings and facilities into the Dragon Hill Fertile Land Secret Realm.
Like the Semi-Mystic Realm extended from the Skeleton Cemetery, it belongs to Tianyuan City's territory and is suitable for constructing Miracle Buildings.
Similarly, the integration of the Dragon Hill Fertile Land Secret Realm has also increased the upper limit of the Territorial Power he controls... although the Territorial Power previously consumed has not been nearly restored.
"In the future, some training buildings could be moved here, the breakthroughs of Legendary Realms and the conduct of evolution ceremonies could also take place here. This way, the celestial phenomena during evolution can be better concealed."
The Black Wasteland's main issue is that the environment is too harsh.
Of course, the Black Wasteland is not a true Natural Secret Realm, and its ability to conceal celestial phenomena might not be so strong.
Mu Yuan thought, arriving at an open, empty plain.
He had just called over hundreds of reserve warriors from the Defensive Troops, all awakened elite individuals with self-awareness, who were here banging and hammering away, constructing Miracle Buildings like 'Dwellings,' 'Advanced Dwellings,' 'Arrow Towers,' and so on.
He walked deeper, swirling his wrist, and a building model with a faint purple glow appeared in his hand.
He gave a flick of his hand and tossed the building model lightly.
"Ding!"
"Prompt: Do you wish to place the Epic Building 'Hall of Martial Souls' at this location?"
"Yes!"
Boom—
The building model spun and, in the blink of an eye, swelled dozens, hundreds of times larger, transforming into a majestic, silver-gray hall, standing tall upon the earth.
The moment the hall was completed, there was an ancient, vast, solemn atmosphere that rushed forth as if it were an ancient temple sealed for thousands of years, seeing daylight just today.
In front of the hall, two bright blue flames burned ghostly.
As Mu Yuan approached, the door—over twenty meters tall and wide enough to accommodate two Sarios side by side—slowly opened.
Mu Yuan walked inside.
"Prompt: Do you wish to consume 10 Soul Crystals to bind your soul imprint into the Hall of Martial Souls?"
"Yes!"
Soul Crystals deducted.
There was no special experience, only a streak of light that fell, and soon after, the Hall of Martial Souls lit up with a tiny star under the dome of night, representing his soul's light.
If the soul imprints of the elites were all recorded here, this place would likely be a sky full of stars.
Mu Yuan did some research on the Hall of Martial Souls and soon showed a look of pleasure.
"Indeed, like the Staff of Divine Right, the Hall of Martial Souls' powers are not only usable near Tianyuan City but can also take effect around any subsidiary territory."
The Staff of Divine Right, at Wolf Head Mountain, can use 'Eye of Heaven' an unlimited number of times, although the coverage range would be somewhat reduced.
The Hall of Martial Souls at Wolf Head Mountain can likewise summon the souls of the fallen warriors, but the summoning range would be smaller than in the main territory.
Currently, it's half the range of the main territory.
If it's a small territory opened up by a Rare Level Watchtower, the summoning range of the Hall of Martial Souls might greatly decrease again.
But it doesn't matter, as long as it can be used.
Being strong or weak is one thing, having or not having the ability is another. The latter is more crucial.
Mu Yuan has already thought of some tactics.
The effects of the Hall of Martial Souls can only be used in defensive battles, but what if...
"What if, when I'm besieging a city, I build Watchtowers outside the gates of a Monster Overlord, how should the enemy respond?"
...
At the same time, on the vast wilderness, strands of red mist drifted.
This region has always been a hunting ground for monsters, with the Fang of the Jackal Wolf and Blood Snake Encase, two Overlord Powers, looming at the top of the food chain, preying on Elves, Giants, Feathermen, Dragon Men, and Dwarves.
A hundred years ago, there were quite a number of Vitality Forces in this region.
As time passed, only two and a half considerable Vitality Forces remained in this region: two were Elves and Giants, and half for the Feathermen.
The beings could only live in the cracks, with conditions for survival growing increasingly grim.
Until today, the horn for a counterattack was blown resolutely.
"Brothers, charge—!"
"Ulrah—!"
"Ulrah—!"
Outside a certain large tribe, one bulky figure after another appeared; the shorter ones were seven to eight meters tall, while the taller ones were giants of thirty to forty meters.
These were indeed the Giants.
