News that the Hall Master of the Primordial Hall intended to build a city had long since spread throughout the Eastern Wasteland. Countless cultivators gathered, just to see whether Lin Yu would perform any more astonishing feats.
Under the gazes of countless cultivators, Lin Yu showed not the slightest nervousness. He still devoted his entire mind and body to forging the city.
By now, Lin Yu had melted countless building materials into liquid with flames and poured them into the prepared mold, but the city still lacked defenses.
Lin Yu raised his hand and drew down the power of lightning. Above the city mold, countless thunderbolts intertwined in midair.
The cultivators looked up at the scene before them. This sight would forever be etched deep in their memories.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Several thunderbolts fell, striking the city mold directly.
Under the bombardment of lightning, the flowing molten material condensed considerably. Traces of impurities were blasted out of it and then evaporated in midair.
Lin Yu deliberately controlled the force of the lightning strikes. Most of these building materials were at the Spirit Condensation Realm; if he used his full strength, he would likely shatter them with ease.
As the power of lightning poured in, the city's building materials became increasingly compact, and their sturdiness climbed steadily.
Blue-violet light spread across the molten material. Soon, a cultivator noticed it and could not help shouting in shock, "The materials actually rose in grade!"
Under Lin Yu's bombardment, the Spirit Condensation Realm materials finally rose to the Spirit Light Realm. Countless cultivators watched it happen before their very eyes, marveling at the spectacle.
This was the first time they had learned that someone in this world could actually raise the grade of materials this way!
What none of them had anticipated, however, was that this was only the beginning.
The bombardment continued for six full hours. Countless dark clouds gathered in the sky before Hongmeng Mountain, the spectacle practically rivaling a Saint's tribulation.
Tens of thousands of thunderbolts fell one after another. Amid this relentless bombardment, the city model that had originally blotted out the sky grew ever more compact. Lin Yu forcibly compressed its scale from a hundred thousand meters to fifty thousand meters!
"Boom!"
The final thunderbolt fell. Lin Yu saw that the entire city now radiated a faint golden light. Through his efforts, he had forcibly raised the Spirit Condensation Realm materials to Saint grade.
Without question, this city would truly be the foremost city in the Eastern Wasteland, whether in terms of the area it occupied or the strength of its defenses!
In fact, many cultivators had already been astonished upon learning that Lin Yu wanted to build the entire city with materials at the Spirit Condensation Realm or above.
After all, the city with the strongest defenses in the Eastern Wasteland at present only used Qi Sea Realm materials.
Not only had Lin Yu chosen Spirit Condensation Realm materials throughout, but he had also forcibly bombarded them to Saint grade with the power of lightning!
Was this something a human could do?
Even a Saint probably could not accomplish such a thing!
Even a Peak Late-Stage Saint could not possess such strength!
This could only mean one thing: the Hall Master of the Primordial Hall had long since surpassed Saints in strength.
Inside Primordial Hall, Cui Ranqing and Ancestor Qingyan could not help exchanging a glance at the sight. Both saw the trace of bitterness in the other's eyes.
Cui Ranqing and Ancestor Qingyan had only just broken through to Sainthood with Lin Yu's help, so they understood all the more clearly that, never mind cultivators who had just become Saints, even Saint King experts might not be capable of such a feat!
Standing in the air, Lin Yu smiled at the now-formed city and raised his hand, tracing a few strokes in the air.
Then, three large characters appeared out of thin air on the empty plaque above the city gate: "Primordial City"!
At that moment, the Eastern Wasteland's foremost holy city was finally complete.
In fact, it might not merely be the foremost city in the Eastern Wasteland. It might even be the foremost city in the entire world!
"Ding! Congratulations, host! Primordial Hall's Fame Points increased by 100!" "Ding! Congratulations, host! Primordial Hall's Fame Points increased by 100!" "Ding! Congratulations, host! Primordial Hall's Fame Points increased by 100!"
A string of notifications rang out in Lin Yu's mind. After Primordial City's completion, the rate at which his Fame Points increased reached a terrifying level.
Lin Yu brought up the Fame Points panel and could see the progress bar moving rapidly!
At the sight, Lin Yu could not help smiling. His idea had indeed been right.
In truth, there had been no need to forge the city outside Primordial Hall, but Lin Yu had still chosen to do it before all these cultivators precisely to increase Primordial Hall's Fame Points.
The Eastern Wasteland's foremost holy city, with every last material raised to Saint grade by his own hands before everyone's eyes-what could create more of a sensation than that?
Primordial City's existence was a living advertisement for Primordial Hall.
As long as it stood, the rate of Fame Points gain would no longer be as simple as the "+10" of the past.
Besides, forging cities would also help him travel between the various cities. It was quite necessary.
Looking at the scene before him, Lin Yu smiled in satisfaction.
"Primordial Guards, hear my command," Lin Yu said calmly. His voice was neither loud nor soft, yet it carried throughout Primordial City.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
As if answering Lin Yu's call, streaks of light flashed across Hongmeng Mountain. In the blink of an eye, many guards answered his summons and stood in the air.
"Greetings, Hall Master!" A full thousand Primordial Guards appeared before Lin Yu in orderly ranks.
"From now on, you will be stationed in Primordial City and be responsible for its defenses." Lin Yu assigned nine hundred of them to Primordial City, while the remaining hundred stayed to guard Primordial Hall.
"As you command!" the Primordial Guards answered in unison. With Lin Yu's orders, they turned into streaks of light and rushed to their posts.
Lin Yu glanced at the countless cultivators still watching below and smiled faintly. With a casual wave of his hand, the city gates opened. The meaning needed no words.
After completing all this, Lin Yu's phantom vanished into the air, just as it had every previous time he acted.
Seeing Lin Yu's divine sense return, Cui Ranqing and Ancestor Qingyan hurriedly seized the opportunity to ask, "Hall Master, might we send some of our disciples into Primordial City?"
"You may." Lin Yu nodded.
Although Cui Ranqing and Ancestor Qingyan had not stated their thoughts outright, Lin Yu could sense them.
It was simply that enormous profits lay behind Primordial City. Never mind being the Eastern Wasteland's foremost holy city, it might even be the foremost holy city of the human race. Once they established themselves there, the benefits would be extraordinary.
However, Lin Yu neither cared about nor had any interest in the tangled interests behind it. All he wanted was Fame Points!
