Over the span of several years, Jiang Hui’s understanding of his Great Tao has advanced by over twenty percent. Viewed in isolation, such progress may not seem significant, but when compared to previous years, it can be described as a rapid leap forward.
He conjectured that the reason for such swift progress in this period is likely tied to his frequent ventures into Alien Territories.
After all, compared to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the rules and order in Alien Territories are more refined, superior even to those in Immortal Domain. They are governed by a complete set of world rules which the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths cannot match.
Each time he ventured into an Alien Territory, his incipient Great Tao would naturally interpret the principles of the Tao in the Alien Territory, incorporating its strengths and filling its weaknesses by imprinting those useful parts, integrating them into his own principles.
Despite his Great Tao’s peculiarities, not being influenced or bound by the rules of other realms, forming a separate entity that would operate on its own once succeeding, transcending the unique and becoming the zero, everything converging into one point.
However, considering that he is at the early stage of creating a Tao, the difficulty of forming it independently is immense. If he could refer to the complete world laws of other realms and absorb their existing experiences, it would be somewhat beneficial to his creation of a Tao.
It’s not just Alien Territories, but also Immortal Domains and Burial Areas. The rules in each of these great worlds are different, and should be useful to him. However, Jiang Hui is not yet certain of their application, and he will have to test them out when the time comes.
…
One day, at dawn.
In the mountains behind the village.
At a wide and open spot.
A soft breeze blew, bringing with it a slight chill.
In the distance, a brilliant sunrise rolled over the horizon like an invasive ivy rampaging through the forests and valleys, melting the cold autumn night of yesterday.
In the corner of the grand hall, the extended roof almost completely covered the paved cobblestone road. Melted dewdrops trickled down the dark green roof tiles, splashing onto the stone slabs, making pleasant dripping sounds…
“Huff!”
Jiang Hui took a deep breath, pulling himself out of the Enlightenment State. To create a Tao, to forge a path no one had ever trodden, wasn’t something achievable overnight. It required constant day-to-day effort.
He didn’t immediately get up. Instead, his mind stilled, making its way into the Divine sea of the mind.
In a moment, within his unique vision, a giant egg floated above him, radiating soft light. It was not ordinary.
This dragon egg was something Jiang Hui had obtained just a few days ago. Its level wasn’t high though, only diamond level.
Despite being relatively common, its hatching method was peculiar, requiring several days of storage in a personal backpack. Now was the exact time.
As Jiang Hui’s gaze fell on the diamond-level egg, the voice of Golden Finger suddenly rang out.
“Congratulations, the Diamond-Level Dragon Egg hatching was successful.”
“Legendary Level Dragon Egg rewards: Ordinary Beast Meat (several), Ancient Breed Beast Flesh (several), Pure Blood Beast Meat (several), Spirit Wheat Seeds (several), Fine Night Pearls (Three), Hundred Refined Knives (One Thousand), Ordinary Favorite Horses (600), Crossbow Towers (Five).”
Soon, all the rewards from the hatched dragon egg were presented before Jiang Hui.
There were quite a lot of things, most of them were the most mundane rewards, especially Beast Meat. Jiang Hui had amassed so much Ordinary Beast Meat and Ancient Breed Beast Flesh that he had lost count. Even the Pure Blood Beast Meat could be described as a massive amount.
No exaggeration, Old man Lin’s specially picked cave couldn’t even contain the amount. The surplus was all stored in Jiang Hui’s backpack.
These things were typically guaranteed rewards, always available, and hence not worth a detailed introduction.
However, the Night Pearls caught Jiang Hui’s attention, as they were something he had drawn for the first time.
Fine Night Pearl: A fairly common gem, a type of agate that can be used for illumination at night. A single Fine Night Pearl can illuminate an area of about ten miles. Within its range, any evil enchanted objects will have nowhere to hide.
After a quick read-through, Jiang Hui wrapped up his perusal of the introduction to the Night Pearls.
The function of illumination was negligible, but the latter function that revealed all enchanted objects caught his attention. If this were to fall into the hands of ordinary people, it would undoubtedly be an heirloom of their generation.
After briefly manipulating it, Jiang Hui’s eyes fell on the 600 Favorite Horses.
Combined with the previous ones, Liu Village now had over ten thousand Favorite Horses, a sea of exceptional steeds that could cover a thousand miles during the day and eight hundred miles at night.
However, because of the Kirin in the village, the Favorite horses were not used in combat on a regular basis but were used for equestrian training for the village’s age-eligible children.
After all, the Kirin was a type of Ferocious Beast and constituted a high risk within its kind. It needed to be fed meat daily and had a particularly violent temperament. Only the true warriors of the village could control them; a group of youngsters didn’t have the strength.
Besides these two things, what interested Jiang Hui most were the Crossbow towers.
Because, if these five were added, the crossbow towers in the village could be upgraded again.
Without hesitation, Jiang Hui selected to use them immediately.
Soon, accompanied by a rumble.
The already towering Crossbow Towers became even more massive, rising high like a mountain, as if about to tear apart the vast blue sky.
