This Was Clearly a Long-Range Cruise Missile!
"In addition to one"
Wang Kui stood aside and reported, "A number of Exotic Treasures also fell. All of Exotic Treasure have been put into storage, and you can check them out, Domain Lord. Among them, the 'Greater Wraith' transformed its Ghost Qi into two Exotic Treasures before it died."
"At its most radiant."
He finished speaking.
Wang Kui presented the two Exotic Treasures he held.
66
Chen Fan frowned. The stronger the Strange Entities, the better the rare Exotic Treasures it could drop. But only two dropped, which was far too few. However, after seeing the Exotic Treasure Panel, he suddenly felt relieved.
Concentration is the essence.
These two Exotic Treasures are worth hundreds of White Grade Exotic Treasures.
Both Exotic Treasures are of Yellow Grade.
The first Exotic Treasure was a stone.
An old friend.
Name of the Exotic Treasure: Heavenly Dao Stone.
"Exotic Treasure Grade": Yellow Grade.
"Exotic Treasure Effect": Applies to any building, granting it a "Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect, and this effect applies to all buildings of the same type under the Camp's name.
P. S.: This only applies to Max-Level Buildings.
Previously, he had only obtained one Heavenly Dao Stone.
This was obtained after unlocking five Max-Level Buildings in the encyclopedia.
This is the second one.
The max-level Godslayer Cannon's Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect, "Sweeping Across the Army," perfectly utilizes overflow damage. This Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect is obtained from Heavenly Dao Stones, and its effect is self-evident. Without this Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect, the Godslayer Cannon would not be so powerful.
Now.
The Godslayer Cannon hasn't fully unleashed its power yet.
The real showdown came three years later with the "Undersea Strange Tide | Landing," where hundreds of millions of Strange Entities attacked. No matter how many ordinary Cannon Tower were built or how many Eerie-Stone Reserves, they could hardly withstand such a large number of Strange Entities.
Any living thing.
Even the most inconspicuous ants, when their numbers reach hundreds of millions, can bring about a terrifying Qualitative Transformation.
Not to mention the Strange Entities.
However, with the "Godslayer Cannon" Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect, it will be much easier to deal with.
"Good."
Chen Fan laughed, stuffed the Heavenly Dao Stone into his pocket, and pondered which Max-Level Building he would use it on later.
Eerie Fire?
High-Speed Rail?
Or perhaps it's Anti-Aircraft Cannon?
There's only one Heavenly Dao Stone, so I need to think carefully and make the most of it.
As for the other Exotic Treasure...
It is a special kind of Exotic Treasure.
It looks like a cotton candy, like a cloud, and feels soft to the touch, but unlike the others, it is entirely black and misty.
Name of the Exotic Treasure: Tribulation Cloud.
"Exotic Treasure Grade": Yellow Grade.
"Exotic Treasure Effect": Tribulation Cloud, can be placed in the Camp. It consumes Eerie Stones and will cause a small-scale concentrated rainfall, accompanied by Tribulation Cloud and thunder.
Chen Fan frowned slightly, deep in thought. It was an Exotic Treasure that could control the weather. Although its grade was not high, the fact that it could control the weather alone was extraordinary.
Although it was only a small-scale rainfall.
But it was also very useful.
Sitting on the City Wall, he looked up at the cliff face of the Nameless Mountain. The Eternal Night had already enveloped the "Sky-Piercing Pillar to Heaven," but amidst the Heavenly Thunder, he could clearly see the progress bar of the "Sky-Piercing Pillar" rapidly increasing.
It has already reached 17%.
It's estimated that it will reach 100% in just a few days.
The Sky-Piercing Pillar can absorb and store lightning for use against enemies, unleashing tremendous power in an instant.
This is the description on the panel.
He didn't know the exact extent of its power.
When the progress reaches 100%, he plans to test its power. If the power is good, he plans to build more Sky-Piercing Pillars and place them on the mountaintop to stockpile more.
Let's send a big wave of Undersea Strange Tides to those who come to pay New Year's visits three years later.
And this Tribulation Cloud.
This allows the Sky-Piercing Pillar to be powered during the non- Rainy Season.
The quality of this Exotic Treasure depends primarily on the strength of the Sky-Piercing Pillar.
"Go check the Warehouse."
Chen Fan got up and walked down the City Wall towards the Warehouse Camp inside the Cave. In the past year, Weiwei had expanded the area of Warehouse Cave considerably. At this moment, there were 10 Warehouses neatly arranged in the Warehouse Camp.
Certainly.
Most of them are empty.
After all, he had been expending a lot of energy these past few days, and the Eerie Stones had been used up rather quickly by him.
Within three years.
Fill these 10 Warehouses.
Chen Fan stood at the entrance of the first Warehouse, scanning each of the Exotic Treasures that had been stored there, searching for valuable Exotic Treasure. There were no Appraisers in the Mortal Domain.
He was responsible for authenticating almost all Exotic Treasure.
It's fast and effortless.
It was late at night.
The Mortal Domain had all fallen asleep. Apart from a few who were on night watch, only Wang Kui's voice could be heard occasionally reporting from inside Cave One.
Interspersed with the sound of a light, intermittent Torrential Rain.
It's like white noise.
It helps you fall asleep.
Deep within the Eternal Night Continent.
An unknown place, an absolutely dark place, a place never before set foot in by outsiders.
The Middle-Aged Man, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, slowly opened his eyes and looked up into the darkness.
He sensed someone was coming.
"That One."
A deep voice suddenly rang out in the darkness. "You've been trapped here for 38 years, and you still refuse to answer? It really is just a very simple question."
It won't harm you at all.
The Middle-Aged Man, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly laughed upon hearing the voice. He could tell that the other person was somewhat anxious, as there was a hint of urgency in their tone.
"It seems the situation on the Eternal Night Front is not optimistic for your Strange Entity Clan."
"A little."
The voice in the darkness did not deny it, frankly admitting, "The defenses on the Eternal Night Front are extremely tight, making it difficult to break through, but it won't be long before manpower is limited."
"The Strange Entity Clan is not as Violence as you humans imagine."
"We just want a Habitat."
"Someone once promised us the Eternal Night Continent."
"The Eternal Night Continent has always belonged to us."
"You're just taking advantage of our absence to usurp our place."
"But-
-"
"If you could tell me the location of that continent, our Strange Entity Clan could abandon our attack on the Eternal Night Continent and head there instead. Wouldn't that be better for both of us?"
"Oh."
The Middle-Aged Man chuckled softly, lowered his head to stroke the scales of the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile beside him, and remained silent. The two Sky-Swallowing Crocodiles beside him did not fight as usual, but lay quietly on the ground.
But his body was clearly tense.
Be prepared to strike at any moment.
These two Sky-Swallowing Crocodiles, having been fed and nurtured by him with a large amount of rare and Heartblood Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures over the years, have long surpassed the upper limit of the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile's strength and possess immense power.
However, they still couldn't break through the Grand Array set up here.
The voice in the darkness remained silent for a long time, then, perhaps realizing it had been too forceful, lowered its voice again. "You do not bear the Heavenly Dao Mark of the Eternal Night Continent."
I know you're not from the Eternal Night Continent.
You come from another continent.
"Before that--"
"The Strange Entity Clan never knew that there was a second continent besides the Eternal Night Continent. You have brought new hope to the Strange Entity Clan."
You are special.
We can't kill you.
"But we know you will die as your Lifespan ends, and the Heavenly Dao's Blessing during those years Suppression Jiangbei are enough to extend your life by a few more years."
Do you want to be trapped here forever?
The Middle-Aged Man suddenly laughed, "Thirty-eight years, and you haven't explored the outside world at all? This Eternal Night doesn't restrict you at all?"
"Eternal Night has no limits."
"However, Daytime Eternal Day has its limitations. If Strange Entities appears under the sun during the day, regardless of its strength, it will be burned to death. Only the Doppelganger Wraith can appear on the Eternal Night Continent at Dusk."
The voice from the darkness said indignantly, "Over the years, the Strange Entity Clan has sent out countless Greater Wraith, using various means, to try to cross the sea and reach the end of the ocean."
Countless Greater Wraith have died.
"But all you see is an endless 'Thunderstorm Sea.' If you're accidentally caught in it, you'll be trapped and unable to escape, suffering endless torment."
"We suspect that the seemingly endless Thunderstorm Sea has even enveloped the entire Eternal Night Continent."
"Those Greater Wraith we sent out, if they had been deployed to the Main Battlefield, might have already breached it."
"Tsk."
The Middle-Aged Man laughed again, casually fiddling with the scales on the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile beside him, and said, "Don't romanticize the path you didn't take; the outcome might have been worse. At least you saw the Thunderstorm Sea."
"How's it? The scenery's nice, isn't it?"
Seeing that the Middle-Aged Man remained completely silent, the voice in the darkness remained silent for a long time before slowly departing.
The Middle-Aged Man sat cross-legged on the ground, continuing to carefully examine the scales on the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile, but his expression gradually became dazed and drifted away.
He is not from the Eternal Night Continent.
Or to be more precise...
He is not human.
He is a special product of chance.
He is probably the only one of his kind in the entire world.
He no longer has a home.
Now his only obsession is to do everything in his power, even with his remaining strength, to protect the Eternal Night Continent. The result may be bad, but he has tried his best.
"Boss."
After the dark figure left, the larger Sky-Swallowing Crocodile lying on the ground said in a deep voice, "You really won't die?"
"Certainly."
The Middle-Aged Man chuckled softly.
How did you do that?
"Because..."
The Middle-Aged Man paused for a moment before saying softly, "I died a long, long time ago."
"I don't even know what state I'm in right now, but I'm more emotional and have more analytical skills than before, and I feel pretty good about it."
"Boss, you're so strong, how did you get killed before?"
"Nobody killed me."
"No one killed you, boss. How did you die?"
I self-destructed.
"Self-destruct?"
The enormous Sky-Swallowing Crocodile, lying at the man's feet, had a glint of longing in its eyes. "With your strength, boss, your self-destruction must be incredibly powerful, right?"
"Certainly."
The Middle-Aged Man laughed, gesturing wildly with his hands in an extremely exaggerated tone. "It's this, this, this big! Enough to sink the Eternal Night Continent!"
"Sharp."
The Sky-Swallowing Crocodile completely failed to perceive that the Middle-Aged Man was speaking in an exaggerated tone; instead, he exclaimed with utmost admiration, "A true man should be like this!"
"Pfft."
The Middle-Aged Man shook his head and couldn't help but laugh. With these two Sky-Swallowing Crocodiles by his side over the years, he felt that he laughed much more often than before. After pausing for a while, he still said in a complicated voice.
"It wasn't as grand as you think. I was forced to self-destruct when I was about to lose, so it was actually quite embarrassing."
"That must have dealt a heavy blow to the enemy, right?"
"Of course, the enemy gained nothing."
"That's enough!"
In other words, the forepaws of the Sky-Swallowing Crocodile are quite thick and heavy, making them unsuitable for making Thumbs-Up; otherwise, this Sky-Swallowing Crocodile would definitely be making a Thumbs-Up right now.
66
The Middle-Aged Man smiled, then fell silent.
My thoughts drifted away.
He was a little homesick.
Pity.
His home is gone, and he can never go back.
No one could cross that Thunderstorm Sea.
Unless...
An inexplicable miracle occurred.
Daylight broke.
As the eternal Eternal Night recedes like the tide in the "Eternal Night Continent" and the sun gradually rises, the Eternal Night in the "New Continent" also recedes, and the sun rises as well.
King Mazi, who had just emerged from the Cabin the Flying Boat, stood on the deck and looked out at the enormous, seemingly endless Deep Pit in the distance. Because of its Deep Pit size, it was difficult to tell that it was a pit unless viewed from above.
This is the destination of their exploration today.
Daylight broke.
We can set off now.
He looked up at the sun overhead, staring intently, as if he were gazing at a lover's face.
"Pavilion Master."
His Subordinates stepped forward, following King Mazi's gaze to the sun overhead, and asked with some confusion, "Pavilion Master, what are you looking at?"
"I'm looking at the sun."
King Mazi squinted, enduring the pain from the bright light, and carefully examined the sun. "Do you think this sun is the same sun we saw on the Eternal Night Continent?"
The Subordinate beside him paused slightly, having never considered this question before. As expected of the Pavilion Master, his thinking was far more profound than theirs. After observing carefully for a while, he hesitated before saying, "It seems to be one..."
"Then you tell me."
King Mazi paused for a moment before continuing, "Could this sun shine on more continents? Are there other continents in the world besides our Eternal Night Continent and the New Continent?"
"Perhaps other continents are also suffering from the impact of these Strange Entities."
"It may have already perished."
"They may have already defeated the Strange Tide and are currently rebuilding."
"Or perhaps, like our Eternal Night Continent, they are engaged in a fierce battle?"
"Pavilion Master."
After a long Subordinate, the subordinate scratched the back of his head sheepishly and said, "What you're saying is making my scalp itch. I'm not really interested in whether there are other continents. How about we continue with our objective and explore how this Deep Pit was formed?"
King Mazi didn't speak again, but after a long while he looked away from the sun, rubbed his sore eyes, looked around and muttered to himself.
"You say..."
"President women from other continents look different from those from the Eternal Night Continent, possessing Qianqiu?"
"The women Jiangbei and Jiangnan are only separated by a river, and they smell completely different."
"If they are from different continents, wouldn't the differences be even greater?"
"Um.
Suddenly, his Subordinate, his face serious and hoarse, said, "Pavilion Master, I've suddenly developed a great interest in other continents. Maybe their skin color is even different?"
"Possibly."
"His skin was completely black?"
What you're saying sounds a bit disgusting...
1
"Like Strange Entities."
"Alright."
"That was so exhilarating! If only it had some of those Strange Entities tentacles and fangs..."
"Shut up!"
King Mazi stared expressionlessly at his Subordinate, who was already lost in his own fantasy, and pointed to the Deep Pit not far away. "Set sail! Today's objective: explore the Deep Pit!"
The Flying Boat hurtled into the Deep Pit from the sky.
The further you go, the more you can reach.
The more of the Deep Pit's full extent they can see, the better.
Until.
There is still half an hour before the Eternal Nightfall.
They finally arrived at the very center of this "Deep Pit," a place they had flown for a full day to reach, which is why they judged it to be the center.
It's simply because this place has the lowest elevation.
Furthermore, the terrain gradually rises towards the outer reaches of the river.
It's like a funnel.
"Go down."
On the deck, King Mazi carefully gave instructions to his Subordinates.
He looked down into the Deep Pit.
It wasn't a naturally formed landform at all. As the altitude gradually decreased, the details of the Deep Pit came into view, and the pit walls were not rough rock layers.
Instead, it has a... Obsidian -like glassy texture.
Extremely bizarre.
Finally, the Flying Boat landed at the bottom of the Deep Pit.
There was nothing around the Deep Pit —no Ghost Bones, no Eerie Stone.
King Mazi cautiously stepped out of the Flying Boat, stood at the bottom of the Deep Pit, and glanced around. To be honest, although it looked flimsy, it was actually quite solid when he stepped on it.
"In pairs."
"Explore everywhere."
This place has lost contact with the Mortal Domain. He will send the message back to the Mortal Domain after the exploration is completed.
Three days later.
Sitting on the City Wall, Chen Fan frowned slightly. King Mazi had been out of contact for three days, and he wondered if he had encountered any danger.
Three days had passed since the start of the Rainy Season.
The mining operations on the New Continent side are proceeding normally, except that King Mazi has been out of contact for a long time. The last news before he went missing was that he was preparing to explore a Deep Pit.
He has not returned.
Just then--
The Message Talisman from the New Continent traveled through several "Signal Towers " in the Undersea Tunnel, saying that King Mazi and his group had returned safely, but King Mazi was weak, as if he had been starving.
Chen Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good that you came back alive.
Wait until King Mazi has recovered a bit before asking him what happened and how he could have become so weak from hunger.
Only then did he look at the Sky-Piercing Pillar panel located atop the Nameless Mountain.
"It can attract lightning during the Rainy Season and gather its energy, which can then be released when needed for defense or other purposes."
"The attack range can extend beyond the Camp's perimeter."
"Upgrade to the next level requires 10,000 Eerie Stones."
Current storage progress (100/100)
Last night, the preparation of this Sky-Piercing Pillar reached 100%.
He decided to go and see how powerful it was.
He walked down the City Wall and headed towards the Nine-Five Dragon Chariot, with Maid hurriedly raising an oil-paper umbrella behind him to shield him from the wind and rain.
Soon-
The Nine-Five Dragon Chariot, burst through the rain and arrived at the top of the Nameless Mountain.
He looked up at the Sky-Piercing Pillar in front of him, hundreds of meters high, standing atop the mountain like a pillar of the gods, exuding an imposing aura.
It is not Pillar.
The cross-section is a cube, and the surface of the Pillar is covered with numerous Vein Patterns, like a carved mural, and they are not straight.
Instead, it presents a twisted, struggling, and upward-striving posture.
He found it difficult to give a specific description.
The progress has now reached 100%.
Another panel appeared in front of them.
The panel displayed an overview of the Jiangbei Wasteland, composed of countless white lines. He gazed at the semi-transparent Map floating before him, slowly shimmering.
He tentatively pointed to a patch of Jiangbei Wasteland.
The next moment -
A line of scarlet text suddenly appeared on the semi-transparent Map in front of them.
"Coordinates selected, launch?"
"Launch... launch?"
Chen Fan froze on the spot, his eyes filled with utter bewilderment.
The Sky-Piercing Pillar's panel are clearly written.
It can store the power of lightning and use it to defend against enemies.
He had expected it to unleash a lightning attack like the "Prism Tower," but... what did the word "launch" even mean?
His gaze lingered on the line of small characters on the "Sky-Piercing Pillar" panel.
"The attack range can extend beyond the Camp's perimeter."
After a long while, he took a deep breath.
He glanced again at the location he had chosen. It was a wasteland in the Jiangbei Wasteland, more than ten kilometers away from the Mortal Domain's Rainy Season Defense Line. There was absolutely no one here; no one would come here during the Rainy Season.
Wrong.
Chen Fan took out the Ghosthide Map from his pocket, scanned it carefully, and only felt relieved after confirming that there was no Eerie Fire burning in the Jiangbei Wasteland.
He was a little afraid of blowing someone up.
After all...
If he were to be struck by lightning Rainy Season last year while he was painstakingly building the City Walls at the Old Camp, he would be completely bewildered.
I have no idea how lightning can travel so far.
Is this power sufficient?
He raised his finger and pressed the word "launch" on the semi-transparent Map in front of him.
Just then...
The ground atop the Nameless Mountain suddenly began to tremble slowly. The tremor wasn't very strong, but it was clearly transmitted from beneath one's feet to the body. The Sky-Piercing Pillar hundreds of meters high in front of them also began to vibrate rapidly and at a high frequency.
"No way?"
Chen Fan's throat bobbed slightly, a hint of disbelief flashing in his eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, he grabbed the Maid beside him, slipped into the Nine-Five Dragon Chariot, and fled quickly to the side.
A few breaths later.
As if in a final sprint, the ground shook violently.
Immediately afterwards.
He saw the enormous, hundreds-of-meters-tall Sky-Piercing Pillar reaching to the Sky-Piercing Pillar. The Vein Patterns carved on its surface lit up from Sky-Piercing Pillar base, spreading rapidly upwards until, in the blink of an eye, the entire Sky-Piercing Pillar was Vein Patterns.
In the rain.
It was extremely glaring.
It was as if someone had raised the transformation wand from the Balala the Fairies.
He seemed to hear someone shouting the name Tiga in his ear.
The next moment -
When the surface of the Sky-Piercing Pillar Vein Patterns its zenith of brilliance, the outer shell of the Sky-Piercing Pillar began to rapidly peel off and shatter, falling heavily to the bottom of the Nameless Mountain.
One of the pillars, which was already suspended in the air, was revealed. It was relatively slender and about ten meters high, and was a perfectly straight circular Pillar.
At this time.
This round Pillar that has just emerged from its shell is crystal clear, resembling a wonton, and one can vaguely see countless lightning bolts darting and darting wildly within Pillar.
At the end of the Pillar.
Countless bolts of lightning, gushing forth, provided thrust to this circular Pillar.
The Pillar began to rise into the air.
The speed increased faster and faster until it flew into the clouds and disappeared.
But soon...
He saw the Pillar again.
Already more than ten kilometers away, it was hurtling straight down towards the ground at an extremely high speed with a steep angle of attack.
The rain obstructed his view, and he couldn't make out the specific appearance of the Pillar.
But he saw the violent surge of lightning erupting from the end of the Pillar.
Like Thunder God hurled by Spear, carrying the power to destroy the world, with an unyielding spirit of "I will die so that all the people under heaven may die with me," it pierced through the rain and crashed straight into the ground.
The first thing that catches the eye is...
Blue.
A pure, intense blue, tinged with a hint of pale white.
Countless lightning bolts exploded in the rain curtain more than ten kilometers away, shooting straight into the sky.
Immediately afterwards.
He heard deafening thunder, louder than thunder during the Rainy Season, as if thunder that had been building up for a long time had finally erupted.
Chen Fan stepped out of the Nine-Five Dragon Chariot and glanced somewhat dazedly at the countless violent lightning bolts exploding in the rain in the distance, and the remains of the Sky-Piercing Pillar scattered on the ground not far away.
He truly hadn't expected it.
This so-called launch involves launching the entire Sky-Piercing Pillar.
He thought it was just a lightning bolt.
So...
This enormous "Sky-Piercing Pillar" only serves to store energy; the real storage location is the smaller, narrower, crystal-clear, semi-transparent Pillar.
Just then...
The Message Talisman in his arms began to heat up, and Wang Kui's anxious and hurried voice came from inside.
"Domain Lord."
"A dozen kilometers south of the Rainy Season Defense Line, countless bolts of lightning suddenly erupted. The power was astonishing, and the sound was deafening. I suspect it might be..."
"I did it."
Wang Kui's voice stopped abruptly, then he quickly changed his tone, his voice carrying a hint of "that makes sense now."
"That's alright then. I suspect it's one of your new tricks Domain Lord."
Chen Fan rode in the Nine-Five Dragon Chariot, flying down from the Nameless Mountain and heading straight for the south side of the Rainy Season Defense Line. The entire Mortal Domain Airspace Ban, but he was exempt from it.
There's no reason why a guard dog would pounce on its owner and start snapping at them.
That's not a gatekeeper.
That's pure, unadulterated meat.
Not long after.
Chen Fan arrived in front of the Deep Pit. He didn't know exactly how powerful it was, since he hadn't experienced it firsthand, but just by looking at the marks left on the ground, he knew that its power was considerable.
The Deep Pit in front of us is more than ten meters in diameter.
Some time has passed.
Residual electric arcs can still be seen flickering on the surface of the Deep Pit.
"He shouldn't have been killed."
Standing atop the Nine-Five Dragon Chariot, he gazed at the Deep Pit before him, its edges crackling with lightning, and suddenly regretted killing that Greater Wraith; he should have imprisoned it in the air.
That way he can give it a try.
Could this Sky-Piercing Pillar, brimming with lightning, pose a threat to the Greater Wraith?
Could we send in another Greater Wraith, so he can try his hand at it?
He needs the help of Strange Entities to gain this combat experience so that he can know the specific power of various buildings in the Mortal Domain.
"Go back!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Fan immediately headed towards the Nameless Mountain again.
He wanted to plant "Sky-Piercing Pillar" all over the Nameless Mountain, just like those monkeys.
This isn't some kind of Sky-Piercing Pillar!
That's clearly Long-Range Cruise Missile!
On Nameless Mountain.
Chen Fan stood there, silently gazing at the semi-transparent Endless Night Lord Panel in front of him, while Maid held an oil-paper umbrella to shield him from the rain.
Having already checked on Wang Kui who had rushed over, he hesitated before asking a question.
"Domain Lord."
Three days ago, King Mazi said he was going to explore a Deep Pit. Could that Deep Pit have been formed in this way?
"A long-range offensive structure that was deployed during the Last Battle of the New Continent?"
"Won't."
Chen Fan shook his head, replied with one sentence, and did not explain further.
According to the information relayed back by King Mazi, the Deep Pit was very large in diameter. It took King Mazi and his group a whole day to reach the center of the Deep Pit by flying in Flying Boat. It should be noted that the Flying Boat was quite fast, even faster High-Speed Rail.
The "Sky-Piercing Pillar" is, after all, only Yellow Grade building.
Even at max level, with the "Heavenly Dao's Blessing" effect and all buffs maxed out, it's difficult to achieve such power.
A pony can Horse-Drawn Carriage.
But a small horse cannot Nine-Five Dragon Chariot.
More importantly -
To use "Sky-Piercing Pillar," select the bombing range on the semi-transparent Map in front of you, and then click the "Confirm" launch button.
This means that without the control panel, even if you figure out how to build the Sky-Piercing Pillar, you can't use it normally. The only effect is that you can use it as a large lightning rod. You can swear oaths under the Sky-Piercing Pillar without worrying about being struck by lightning.
The construction of the Sky-Piercing Pillar was extremely simple.
Only 5,000 Eerie Stones are needed.
No other conditions are required.
This is level 1, of course.
Chen Fan glanced around. The Nameless Mountain was still too small to accommodate many "Sky-Piercing Pillar," and it was also too unsightly.
After Incense Stick.
Chen Fan appeared at the Mortal Domain Harbor, glanced around, and nodded with slight satisfaction.
This place is nice.
He marked out a large area.
It consumed 5,000 Eerie Stones.
The next moment, a Sky-Piercing Pillar hundreds of meters high, composed of countless white lines, slowly solidified and quickly landed in the area he had designated, exactly the same as the damaged Sky-Piercing Pillar.
He looked at the Upgrade Panel.
"Upgrade to the next level requires 10,000 Eerie Stones."
"Current storage progress (0/100)."
Without the slightest hesitation, he consumed another 10,000 Eerie Stones, and a panel slowly popped up in front of him.
"The Sky-Piercing Pillar has been upgraded to Level 2."
"There are no upgrade paths available for this building; each upgrade will increase its power, range, and flight speed."
"And we cannot obtain any upgrade direction through other means."
"To advance to the next level, 20,000 Eerie Stones are required."
"Current storage progress (0/200)."
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. Like the Godslayer Cannon and the Anti-Aircraft Cannon, it seemed that there were no upgrade options available for these relatively powerful offensive buildings.
The storage progress has been increased to 200.
This means longer storage time, but it also means greater power.
Upgrade.
Upgrade.
Upgrade!
After consuming a total of 455,000 Eerie Stones, he upgraded the "Sky-Piercing Pillar" to level 10, which is also the maximum level of the Pillar of Sky-Piercing Pillar. A panel slowly popped up in front of him.
"The Sky-Piercing Pillar has been upgraded to level 10."
"Level reached maximum, cannot be upgraded further."
"Gain Max-Level Effect: Scenes of Devastation": Power increased.
This is the 11th Max-Level Building in the Mortal Domain.
He already has 11 Max-Level Buildings.
He had seen all sorts of Max-Level Effects.
For example, the Max-Level Effect of the Eerie Fire.
"Heavenly Dominion": Your Eerie Fire will draw energy from the darkness and will not require Eerie Stones to maintain daily. When you have lit Eerie Fire in all areas of a continent, you will receive the special reward "Heavenly Dominion".
The Max-Level Effect for quest-related tasks.
It's still a high-difficulty task, or rather, a task that's almost impossible to complete.
For example, the Max-Level Effect of Bridge.
"Smooth Sailing": All creatures crossing the bridge will receive the "Smooth Sailing" effect for twelve hours, slightly increasing their walking speed.
Auxiliary type.
But this was the first time he had ever seen such a straightforward Max-Level Effect.
A Scenes of Devastation...
A power boost...
That's straightforward enough.
To maximize one's strengths.
He looked at the panel.
The progress of this Sky-Piercing Pillar, which he upgraded to level 10, is "0/10000".
Total progress: 10,000.
The total progress of Level-1 Sky-Piercing Pillar is 100, and the total progress of Level-10 Sky-Piercing Pillar is 10,000, which means that its power is equivalent to being enhanced 100 times.
Certainly.
Similarly.
The energy storage time has also increased a hundredfold.
During the Rainy Season, he spent three days filling in the progress of a level 1 Sky-Piercing Pillar. At this rate, it would take 300 days to fill in a Level-10 Sky-Piercing Pillar.
The Rainy Season lasts 30 days.
That is, 10 years.
10 years...
Chen Fan gradually fell silent. For any force, simply placing such a Pillar outside would...
It will become a weapon of mass destruction after the New Year, and everyone will be very excited.
Whether it's Medicine King Valley or the Gongyang Clan.
Even the "Slaying Immortal Holy Land" located further away in the West Pass Plains.
They'll all be very excited.
This is the foundation.
A profound cultural heritage.
A foundation far more terrifying than that of the Night Watcher, and one that requires no one to sacrifice for it, but for him, that would take a long time.
10 years...
Three years from now, the Undersea Strange Tide will make landfall, and he's hoping that the "Sky-Piercing Pillar" will make a grand appearance during Undersea Strange Tide. He can't wait that long.
But...
He suddenly laughed again.
As luck would have it, he had just acquired an Exotic Treasure called "Tribulation Cloud," which could control local weather and greatly accelerate energy storage time.
He hasn't yet conducted experiments to determine exactly how fast the energy storage will be.
This has to wait until the Rainy Season is over.
Let's build the Sky-Piercing Pillar heavens first.
Soon-
After consuming 4.55 million Eerie Stones, he crafted 10 Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillars, almost one after another, which looked somewhat crowded at first glance.
After all, "Tribulation Clouds " can only bring localized rain and thunder.
The next moment!
He pulled the Tribulation Cloud from his robes and threw it into the air.
In the blink of an eye.
After the small Tribulation Cloud into the sky, it began to grow rapidly. Arcs of lightning flashed continuously within the Tribulation Cloud, and it began to rain, with a bolt of lightning striking from time to time.
It rains during the Rainy Season.
The Rainy Season and the rain under the Tribulation Clouds overlapped, making them somewhat indistinguishable.
After Chen Fan and the others below worked hard to identify it, they quickly drew a circle on the ground. This circle represented the area that the Tribulation Clouds could cover.
After doing all this.
Chen Fan looked at the scene before him and nodded in satisfaction. The area covered by the Tribulation Clouds was quite large, enough to accommodate all 10 Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillars, and there was still room for another four or five.
This area has been developed into Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillar.
As for outside this area...
Instead of building Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillars, which won't be fully charged, just build a large number of them that will be fully charged in exactly three years. Three years is 90 days to fully charge.
90 days is...
Um.
Level-6 Sky-Piercing Pillar is just right.
A Level-6 Sky-Piercing Pillar requires only 150,000 Eerie Stones and only needs to stand in the Wasteland for three years. After three years, it will bloom into a dazzling firework.
"Hey."
Chen Fan grinned; he suddenly felt the joy of sowing seeds.
Where there is sowing, there is reaping.
The seeds he has sown now.
Three years from now, the moment of blossoming and bearing fruit will arrive.
Next.
Like a diligent farmer, he began to stuff five more Max-Level Sky-Piercing Pillars into the area covered by the Tribulation Clouds.
Then, in areas not covered by the Tribulation Clouds Level-6 Sky-Piercing Pillars were continuously built. One after another, Sky-Piercing Pillars hundreds of meters high, composed of white lines, quickly solidified and were completed once again.
One.
Two.
Three.
Chen Fan built structures at an extremely fast pace; in almost the blink of an eye, a Sky-Piercing Pillar was quickly solidified and completed.
Each upgrade of the Sky-Piercing Pillar shows almost no change in appearance; Level-1 Sky-Piercing Pillar and Level-10 Sky-Piercing Pillar look exactly the same thing.
Certainly.
He knew that what had truly changed was the core inside the Sky-Piercing Pillar; the slender Pillar hidden inside was the real Sky-Piercing Pillar.
Mortal Domain, Harbor.
This is where the Mortal Domain Sea Ship set sail, and it is also the entrance to the Undersea Tunnel to the "New Continent." Located on the edge of the Coastline, it was originally a desolate place with few buildings.
However-
At this moment, amidst the Torrential Rain, Sky-Piercing Pillars hundreds of meters high rose continuously from the ground.
At a glance.
Like Heroic Spirits Suppression the Coastline.
"The buildings created by the Domain Lord are still so pleasing to the eye."
Standing not far away, Wang Kui watched the Domain Lord build the structure, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.
He had rarely been in a position to interact with Builder before.
Therefore, during the Rainy Season, he didn't have a clear reaction to the speed at which the Domain Lord built the structures. Although he knew it was a bit exaggerated, there was no comparison.
Until the rise of the Mortal Domain.
He met many Builder, especially at Builder Conferences, and observed many Builder creating buildings.
His only thought at the time was...
Fortunately, these Builder were located in Jiangbei.
If this were on the Eternal Night Front, then the Eternal Night Continent would be completely finished. They could just wait to die; this group of people definitely couldn't hold the Frontline.
It's completely sealed.
They were incredibly slow and inefficient. Some Builder would even stop and perform a Heaven-Worshipping Ritual while building a structure, begging and pleading with everyone they knew.
In contrast, consider the Domain Lord.
That was incredibly efficient and decisive. Not only was the speed extremely fast and without any hesitation, but more importantly, all the Sky-Piercing Pillars that have been built so far have been successfully solidified, with not a single one failing to be built.
How exactly was this done?
He couldn't understand it, but he knew one thing: he was fortunate to be a person from the Mortal Domain, not an enemy of the Mortal Domain.
He recalled the Deep Pit he had just seen, and then looked at the ever-increasing number of towering Sky-Piercing Pillars rising from the ground in front of him. His lips twitched slightly, and he suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for the enemies of the Mortal Domain.
The most terrifying aspect of the Sky-Piercing Pillar is not its power.
Rather, it's an unpredictable and mysterious attack method.
Finally.
After a long time, Chen Fan stood there, hands on his hips, slightly out of breath, looking at the numerous Sky-Piercing Pillars he had built before him, and smiled with satisfaction.
I feel a great Achievement.
Looking at the vast expanse of neatly arranged Sky-Piercing Pillar, even if they're not activated right now, it's still a very satisfying sight.
Unfortunately, one cannot squander these Eerie Stones.
Otherwise, he wanted to cover the entire Jiangbei with Sky-Piercing Pillars.
But...
Can this thing bypass Airspace Ban restrictions?
He glanced at the Rainy Season Defense Line to the side, pondering how to first build a Level-1 Sky-Piercing Pillar, and when the progress reached 1%, he would conduct an experiment and fire a shot into the sky above the Mortal Domain.
