Heavenly Fortune
A long time passed.
The sea gradually calmed down.
From beginning to end, Fraud Emperor Jiu Wu had no idea what kind of Strange Entities was in the Seabed that warranted such Grand Array Slaying by the Mortal Domain. Chen Fan also had no intention of explaining, and simply stood there quietly watching the scene unfold.
This is the first test firing of the Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon in the "Mortal Domain".
When he witnessed this scene with his own eyes.
He knew the damage had exceeded acceptable levels.
In reality, a level 10 Heavenly Dao Cannon should be sufficient, but it doesn't really matter. Firstly, it's for safety, and secondly, it's for testing purposes to see how powerful it is.
The Four Divine Cannons can only be placed on Level-10 City Wall.
The Heavenly Dao Cannon does not have this limitation.
However, without the resistance of Level-10 City Wall, the Heavenly Dao Cannon can only fire once before self-destructing.
By this time, the number 372 Flying Boat had long since vanished from the Heaven and Earth; its fragments had been completely obliterated.
The cost of Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon is 90 million Eerie Stone.
That last shot.
It was the Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon's "All Things Are Straw Dogs, Heaven and Earth Share Longevity," which was extremely powerful. This single shot consumed a full 500 million Eerie Stone. It is certain that this was the power he had used since he transmigrated to this world.
He didn't know which carbon-based life form could withstand that shot.
Fire this shot.
All things perished.
But...
He still didn't understand the meaning of the level 20 Max-Level Effect "Nine-Nine Returns to One" and the Heaven and Earth Mourn. He knew the level 10 overpowered effect "All Things Are Straw Dogs" was an attack method with great power, but he didn't see the meaning of this level 20 Max-Level Effect.
That Mr. Na was unaware.
Let's Heaven-Questioning Bell again.
The Heaven-Questioning Bell can usually provide answers to these fixed questions, and he already roughly knows how to use it.
Soon.
The Heaven-Questioning Bell provided the answer.
"Heavenly Dao Cannon Level-20 Max-Level Effect: 'Nine-Nine Returns to One, Heaven and Earth Mourn'."
"Once the continent advances to the Third-Level Continent, the ninety-nine level Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon can be combined to create a Red Grade."
"Continental-class" strategic weapon Heaven-Deriving Orbital Cannon.
"Ps: Purple Grade Defensive Structure represent the highest grade on the continent."
"Red Grade are continental-level strategic weapons."
"The cost is enormous; under full power, it can easily destroy a weakly defended continent."
"..."
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. This time, the explanation was much clearer. Without the Heaven-Questioning Bell, who could have guessed what it meant?
And they even sent him an extra message.
He learned that the next grade higher than Purple Grade is Red Grade.
The Red Grade is already a "continental-level" strategic weapon.
Once started.
This often signifies the fall of a continent and the start of a final, brutal battle.
"We need to acquire a continental-class strategic weapon as soon as possible."
Chen Fan murmured softly.
Currently, Mortal City's explorations have only uncovered the Ese Continent, where the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu resides; no other races or continents have been discovered. But what if there is a Third-Level Continent nearby possessing "continental-level" strategic weapons?
Is the other side planning to invade the Eternal Night Continent?
He had no choice but to surrender.
"This is really hopeless."
Now organize this text into paragraphs, ensuring it matches the original formatting, and then output the plain text:
Just then--
The Mr. Na suddenly froze on the deck of the Flying Boat, letting out a long sigh, "Chen Fan, Second-Level Continent is impossible, absolutely impossible, definitely not possible, one hundred percent impossible. I swear on my life, there is absolutely no chance of obtaining a 'continental-level' strategic weapon."
You're thinking too far ahead.
"The Eternal Night Continent has only just been promoted to the Second-Level Continent. If everything goes smoothly, it will take at least thirty years to advance to the Third-Level Continent."
"And..."
"It's hard to say whether he'll even get promoted."
"Many continents remained at the Second-Level Continent or even First-Level Continent for thousands of years. For example, the 'Eternal Night Continent' was First-Level Continent for tens of thousands of years before it was promoted to the Second-Level Continent."
"Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon is practically the strongest weapon on the Second-Level Continent."
"At most, we can acquire a few more auxiliary buildings to enhance the power of the Cannon Tower, making the Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon a little stronger, but that's basically it; the upper limit of the Second-Level Continent is like this, there's no way to make it stronger."
"Um."
Chen Fan nodded slightly, not offering much of a rebuttal. He was merely considering it, after all, even the prerequisite for the "Heavenly Punishment Orbital Cannon" was that the Eternal Night Continent had to be upgraded to the Third-Level Continent.
It's definitely not something he can obtain right now.
But it's always good to think about it.
"..."
He turned his head to look at the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu, who had already run to the center of the island. Ever since the test explosion, the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu had been trembling and saying that the clothes at home hadn't been put away yet, and then he ran off in a flash.
Chen Fan.
Following Chen Fan's gaze, the That One looked at Jiu Wu's retreating figure and sighed, "You've completely shattered this guy's Dao heart this time. 'Dark Sacred Physique,' a Holy Body I've never even heard of. He's born to conquer."
"It might even develop into the 'Dark King' in the future."
"That's all..."
"Even in its infancy, its will to conquer was completely shattered by the Mortal Domain. It's broken to this extent that it will never be able to rise again, no matter what changes it encounters. It has already lost its kingly spirit before the battle even begins, and there is no way it can ever muster the strength to fight again."
Possible.
"It's a bit of a pity."
Chen Fan didn't speak, but looked away and pursed his lips. He wanted to Eradication all unstable factors near the Eternal Night Continent. The Weird Emperor Jiu Wu was originally one of the unstable factors, so naturally he had to be dealt with as well.
"Young Master."
The voice of the Mad Monkey came from the Message Talisman in his arms. "The items dropped by 'Heavenly Dao Strange' on the other Seabed have been retrieved using 'Pick-Up Sculpture.' Would you like to take a look?"
"Good."
Immediately.
The Flying Boat beneath Chen Fan started moving and landed beside a Warehouse on the shore not far away.
Beside the Warehouse, a Pick-Up Sculpture the warehouse is emitting a faint glow.
King Mazi and the Mad Monkey were standing by the Warehouse waiting for him.
The area within Pick-Up Sculpture picked up is only one kilometer.
But after leveling up to level 20.
The panel has changed.
Building Name: Pick-Up Sculpture
Building grade: Blue Grade.
Building Level: 20.
"Building Effect": It can automatically absorb all Eerie Stone and Exotic Treasure dropped by Strange Entities within Thousand Meters radius, but the Strange Entities must be killed by Defensive Structure within the Camp.
"Level-10 Max-Level Effect": "Picking Up Everywhere": This building can be used as an external Warehouse with automatic storage.
"Level-20 Max-Level Effect": Pick-up range increased to 10,000 meters.
"Heavenly Dao Blessing Effect": "All mine": The pickup process cannot be interrupted or hindered.
A simple and direct effect.
10,000 meters.
On land, 10,000 meters is not a particularly long distance.
However, a depth of 10,000 meters is quite rare in the ocean, and many Sea Domain do not reach this depth. This means that the best use case for "Pick-Up Sculpture" is actually to Slaying the Strange Entities in the sea.
Pick-Up Sculpture, it will automatically pick up any items that fall.
Otherwise...
Heavenly Dao Strange died 2300 meters below the Seabed. Who can retrieve the items he dropped?
Even the Weird Emperor Jiu Wu couldn't descend.
Even the Submersible Ship couldn't get down there.
No one can get down.
The Mad Monkey standing beside the Warehouse saw Chen Fan approaching and hurriedly handed him the three items in his hand. "Young Master, these are the three."
There are three items in total.
No Appraiser is needed; his eyes are the measure.
The same.
Building Blueprint as thin as a cicada's wing.
"Exotic Treasure Name": Individual Armory.
"Exotic Treasure Grade": Purple Grade.
"Exotic Treasure Effect": A powerful Individual Weapon that can be mass-produced for individual use without any Cultivation restrictions on the user.
Purple Grade.
The second Purple Grade building in the Mortal Domain.
Even for the Second-Level Continent, Purple Grade buildings and Purple Grade Exotic Treasure are extremely Rare. As for the First-Level Continent, there is almost no chance of obtaining them.
"Call..."
Chen Fan took a slow breath, grinned, and crushed the thin, almost translucent Blueprint in his hand.
A new building appeared in the "Buildings" section of the Endless Night Lord Panel.
Go back and build it on the Eternal Night Continent to see how it goes.
This building.
It can significantly enhance the overall strength of the Mortal Domain.
These Individual Weapon may not be very effective against the Strange Tide, but they are quite effective for exploration or when carrying out missions in small, dispersed groups. The specific effectiveness will depend on the power of the Individual Weapon.
If only we had a "single-soldier" Heavenly Dao Cannon.
I won't say anything more then.
War is about to break out in the Mortal Domain.
He galloped on his horse, cracked his whip, and made a name for himself.
The second Exotic Treasure.
It was something resembling Pebble. He weighed it in his hand and smiled even before looking at the surface. Purple Grade threads flowed inside the Pebble, making it look extremely beautiful.
It should also be of Purple Grade, barring any unforeseen circumstances.
As long as it's Purple Grade.
Even if it's a pile of shit.
That's top-tier shit, one in a million.
-
"Name of the Exotic Treasure": Continent Core.
"Exotic Treasure Grade": Purple Grade.
"Exotic Treasure Effect": Special material.
-
"..."
Chen Fan frowned slightly. Judging from the name, this thing sounded impressive, but Exotic Treasure effects were unclear. It was probably something like Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, needed for upgrading a certain building.
"Chen Fan... could it be that you're truly Fortune's Favor?"
The That One who had come to watch the spectacle was stunned by what he saw. His eyes were filled with horror. As a being of the Heavenly Dao, he was tired of seeing all walks of life and had seen all sorts of outrageous things, but at this moment he was truly incredulous.
Continent Core...
It just slipped through my fingers like that?
You know?
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow; he was just about to take the Heaven-Questioning Bell out of his pocket.
"Of course I know."
After That One a deep breath, he said with a serious expression, "I didn't know this before, and I only found out after I became the Heavenly Dao of the Eternal Night Continent."
The conditions for a continent to advance from the First-Level Continent to the Second-Level Continent are:
"A faction that has achieved Great Unification needs to have 20 Max-Level Building and ensure that the Eerie Fire is upgraded to level 10 to complete the 'Heavenly Dominion' quest."
"Actually, it's not particularly harsh."
"Moreover, these are conditions that the mainland can achieve under normal development; there is no need to fulfill any particular condition solely for the purpose of mainland promotion."
"However, the conditions for the Second-Level Continent to advance to the Third-Level Continent are much more stringent."
The following conditions must be met--
"Complete all Hidden Heavenly Dao's Blessing, consuming Soil from ten different continents, and... consuming one 'Continent Core'."
"Just these three conditions."
"Of these three conditions, the most difficult is the 'Continent Core,' and now... you have fulfilled that condition..."
"If the 'Eternal Night Continent' originally needed at least 30 years to advance to the Third-Level Continent, it can now be shortened by ten years, with a minimum of twenty years, to have a chance to advance to the Third-Level Continent."
The Mr. Na paused for a moment before continuing his explanation.
You should know about "Mountain Embryo," this Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, right?
"Back then, on 'Nameless Mountain,' I used Mountain Embryo to set up a four-day Grand Array to cultivate Snow Lotus for the beasts to consume. How was this 'Mountain Embryo' formed?"
To put it bluntly, they are children from "mainland China".
After carefully considering his words, the Mr. Na continued, "The continent we live on is not the Primordial Continent."
It's acquired, so it has many shortcomings, such as... slight leakage of semen.
"..."
Hearing the somewhat absurd word uttered by the Mr. Na, Chen Fan remained expressionless and silent. "You are..."
"You mean... ejaculation?"
"Yes."
"Whether it's Mountain Embryo, Sea Embryo, or Forest Embryo, they are all products of sperm leakage on the mainland."
"The continent we live on is like an old man who can't hold his pee; a little leaks here, a little leaks there."
The essence of Heaven and Earth and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
"And the role of the 'Continent Core' is like a powerful medicine, completely Essence Locking of the mainland."
"Return to 18."
"After the Essence Locking, the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth on the continent will be extremely rich, and it will all be concentrated on the continent and not leak out, such as the snow lotus."
The flowers no longer need 100 years to mature, but only 10 years, and the continental plates will be harder, able to withstand enemy attacks.
Even after a fierce attack, a person will not easily collapse.
"Many benefits."
"This is also one of the most significant markers after the Second-Level Continent to the Third-Level Continent."
The "Primordial Continent" I had you absorb is a powerful tonic for the Eternal Night Continent, providing immense nourishment.
I don't need it, but the medicine is too strong, so I absorb it very slowly. (Unless it's a special case.)
"For example, in the 'War Mire,' there isn't much time for slow absorption; it has to be swallowed whole, but then only Thirty Percent of the medicine's effects can be realized."
"Unlike now, when I chew slowly and carefully, I can get the full effect of the medicine."
You can't feel it now.
"But..."
"Once the Eternal Night Continent is upgraded to the Third-Level Continent, you can even directly collide with other continents, and they will absolutely..."
I can't beat you.
"..."
Chen Fan understood, and with a strange expression, he looked down at the Pebble in his hand, even though it had no other effect.
The fact that the fruit is merely one of the necessary materials for advancing to the Third-Level Continent is enough to prove its value.
Only...
"This thing can't be obtained so easily, can it?"
He seemed... quite relaxed.
You obtain it by killing a Heavenly Dao Strange.
"Certainly."
The Mr. Na rolled his eyes. "That's why I said you're Fortune's Favor. The 'Continent Core' is an extremely Rare treasure of Heaven and Earth, and the Heavenly Dao Strange feeds on the Continent Fortune."
"The 'Junyi Continent' Seabed has collapsed, and the remaining fortune is nothing new. It's not what the Heavenly Dao Strange likes. The Heavenly Dao Strange prefers the fresh Continent Fortune."
"But-"
"Only Heavenly Dao Strange absorbs the fortune of the collapsed continent, along with the resentment and death energy mixed on the continent's surface, and after a period of sedimentation, will a 'Continent Core' form within it."
"So..."
Now you know how demanding the conditions are for the formation of a "Continent Core," right?
"Normally, the Heavenly Dao Strange dislike this kind of fortune mixed with death and resentment, so only by Slaying ten Heavenly Dao Strange is there a chance to obtain a 'Continent Core'."
"And you've seen the strength of the Heavenly Dao Strange. On an ordinary continent, one would need to develop to at least the peak of the Second-Level Continent and possess Level-20 Heavenly Dao Cannon to have a chance of Slaying the Heavenly Dao Strange."
"The Heavenly Dao Strange Demon you encountered just happened to be not particularly strong."
"Furthermore, the number of Heavenly Dao Strange is extremely small."
"This has led to many Second-Level Continent being stuck at the 'Continent Core' point when they want to advance to the Third-Level Continent."
"I must say, you're really lucky."
"..."
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "I prefer to call it Heaven's Mandate."
"And you missed something."
"The powerful Heavenly Dao Strange can continuously monopolize fresh fortune, and only those Heavenly Dao that are not strong enough can do so."
Only the treacherous can draw upon this fortune mixed with death energy, meaning that weaker Heavenly Dao Strange are more likely to be born.
"Continent Core".
That's certainly true.
The Mr. Na nodded with some emotion. "There are inherent laws governing the Heaven and Earth. Although obtaining the Continent Core is difficult..."
"There is no such thing as Third-Level Continent."
"Sometimes when I think about it carefully, it feels quite amazing."
"Based on the whims and preferences of the Heavenly Dao Strange, the difficulty of acquiring the Continent Core was precisely controlled to a Second-Level Continent."
The peak is a position you can reach just by standing on tiptoe.
"Good."
Chen Fan happily stuffed the Continent Core into his pocket. It was an unexpected stroke of luck; before this, he had no idea...
I asked that Mr. Na what the conditions were for advancing to the Third-Level Continent.
He believed that the continent was still a long way from being promoted to the Third-Level Continent.
I didn't ask.
The Eternal Night Continent is far from reaching the limit of the Second-Level Continent. Unexpectedly, it has inadvertently brought the most...
The hard-won promotion materials were obtained.
He looked at the last item that had fallen.
It is a... fruit.
Like a persimmon, it has a golden-yellow surface, but it is translucent, and you can vaguely see a liquid resembling Flame inside.
It flows within.
"Name of the Exotic Treasure": Heavenly Fortune.
"Exotic Treasure Grade": Purple Grade.
"Effect of Exotic Treasure": After consumption, one gains a Heavenly Fortune. This Heavenly Fortune can, at crucial moments, grant the user...
Your luck has improved dramatically.
"This is Heavenly Fortune."
The Mr. Na, acting like a tour guide, smacked his lips and began to explain, "You've had caviar before, right? This..."
Heavenly Fortune is similar to the caviar of "Heavenly Dao Strange," but of course, not eggs.
"After absorbing the Continent Fortune, the Heavenly Dao Strange will form 'Heavenly Fortune' within its body, and then slowly digest it."
"Sometimes, if someone is killed before they have fully digested their abilities, the accumulated Heavenly Fortune will become the dropped items."
"Only..."
"This is a 'Heavenly Dao Strange' that absorbs the energy of a broken continent. Only pure and fresh Continent Fortune can form Heavenly Fortune within the Heavenly Dao Strange; the energy of a broken continent cannot form 'Heavenly Fortune.'"
"It must be the 'Heavenly Fortune' that this guy absorbed from other continents before coming to the Ese Continent, forming it within his body. This was the last one left, and he couldn't bear to eat it, so it ended up benefiting us."
This tells us...
"Never keep good things to yourself; they might end up in the enemy's hands."
"It's like you got murdered, and the person who killed you still slept with your wife and beat your child."
"That's a bit of a pity."
"If we could kill a high-level 'Heavenly Dao Strange,' and that one happened to have a lot of undigested Heavenly Fortune, then we could eat them like caviar, a dozen at a time."
Just then--
Standing beside the Crippled Monkey, King Mazi hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward uncertainly and said, "Lord of the City... is this persimmon very valuable? I... I think I've eaten this persimmon before..."
"Are you crazy?"
The Mr. Na looked at King Mazi, somewhat speechless, and said, "Wasn't my explanation clear enough? 'Heavenly Fortune' can only be obtained from the Heavenly Dao Strange's body. Where are you going to get it from? Does Heavenly Fortune grow from the persimmon tree in your backyard?"
"That's simply impossible."
"Um?"
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. "Tell me in detail."
"Good."
King Mazi took a deep breath, knowing the gravity of the situation, and dared not Xixi. He pondered carefully as he recalled, "That was a long, long time ago, during the 'Eternal Night Old Calendar'."
"At that time Mortal City had not yet been established."
"Before Station Master of North River Chen Family Station 36, I also served as the Station Master of North River Chen Family Station 47."
That's a seaside Station.
"One day, I was strolling around the Station with nothing to do when I suddenly noticed four or five persimmons on the Wasteland. They looked quite nice, so I picked them up, moved them aside, and smelled them carefully. They were sweet."
It doesn't smell fishy or foul.
"A Caravan carrying goods just happened to be leaving, and I figured he must have fallen out of the Horse-Drawn Carriage. These things happen all the time, and generally, if it's not something particularly valuable, it's assumed to be mine."
"Then..."
I ate all those persimmons.
"That persimmon looks similar to the one you're holding, City Lord..."
"..."
"..."
Chen Fan and the Mr. Na remained silent for a long time, their faces expressionless. King Mazi's story sounded plausible and didn't seem fake. If it didn't seem fake, then the matter was rather bizarre.
The Mad Monkey stared at King Mazi with a completely bewildered expression.
You mean, Young Master, you painstakingly upgraded the Eternal Night Continent to the Second-Level Continent and explored the Na Yi Continent, only to obtain a persimmon after using 20 Heavenly Dao Cannon to kill a "Heavenly Dao Strange".
Back in the Jiangbei Wasteland, you ate this stuff like candy?
"That..."
"Am I... am I a waste..."
King Mazi stood there, looking at the city lord with some trepidation. He felt as if he had made a big mistake; he hadn't known that this thing was so valuable.
After a long while.
Mr. Na spoke again, "When you ate it, didn't you notice that this thing was different from a normal persimmon? Normal persimmons aren't translucent, and there's liquid slowly flowing out inside?"
"I'd only ever heard of persimmons and knew roughly what they looked like, but I'd never actually seen one before. Persimmons weren't grown in Jiangbei before... I thought that's what persimmons looked like. After thinking about it for a while, I swallowed it."
"Call..."
After a long silence, the Mr. Na finally let out a long sigh, "Now I finally know how you crossed the Thunderstorm Sea."
"The Great Dao is fifty, Heavenly Evolution forty-nine, and humanity escapes to one."
"There is no absolutely certain death in this world. Even in the Thunderstorm Sea, there must be a path that can be traversed normally. However, this path is constantly changing and is almost impossible to pass through. But you... under the Heavenly Fortune Protection, you just happened to pass through."
"I even wore it twice, once on the way here and once on the way back."
Can you tell me how many you ate?
"It's been too long."
King Mazi, somewhat hesitantly, whispered, "Four? Five? I forgot. Anyway, I felt quite full after eating them. No one came to the Station in the afternoon, so I lay on the Rocking Chair and had a nice nap."
The weather was neither too hot nor too cold, and a gentle breeze was blowing.
"I have no worries on my mind."
"I slept quite well that night."
"How could I not feel comfortable?" the Mr. Na Heavenly Fortune. "If you can't sleep comfortably, then nobody in the world can."
"The first person in history to eat his fill of 'Heavenly Fortune' is someone you won't find another like him throughout history."
"Have to."
"I have a feeling that it's not just Chen Fan who is destined for Heaven's Mandate, but even your Subordinate King Mazi is destined for Heaven's Mandate."
Chen Fan chuckled and patted King Mazi on the shoulder, "It's alright, relax."
"This is called the Mortal Domain where Heaven's Mandate has ordained."
"Without your gluttony, the Mortal Domain would never have discovered the New Continent."
"Discovering New Continent is a great achievement for the Mortal Domain."
