Chapter 169 Territory Upgrade, Immortal City!

Xia Tian took a look at the current territory's luck value, which already exceeded "one hundred thousand"!

Moreover, in the past few days, about a thousand refugees have poured in again, plus the fifteen hundred people who have now moved from Hujiazhuang.

The population has also reached ten thousand!

In other words, the conditions for the third territory upgrade have been fully met.

This time, what will happen after the upgrade?

Xia Tian's heart moved, communicating with the earth's will.

[Do you want to enable territory upgrade? After upgrading, the territory will be promoted from 'village' to 'town'! 】

[Note that once you start the 'promotion', you will officially enter the 'Path of Luck', gather the destiny of heaven, earth, and all living beings, and you must also bear the cause and effect... Luck is endless, and the catastrophe is boundless! 】

Unexpectedly, this time, the will of the earth did not immediately upgrade the territory as soon as he had a thought like before.

Instead, a "reminder" appeared on purpose.

"Does it mean that the human territory is not actually truly gathering and using 'luck'?"

Xia Tian was a little surprised.

However, the information that came to his mind immediately made him understand.

The "luck" used by the human race lords before was essentially a consumption of the earth's own reserves. Only by gathering tens of thousands of people, occupying a certain area and setting foot on the "town" level can we truly rely on our own abilities to continuously gather the heaven, earth and all living beings. Qi luck maintains its operation and continues to develop.

From Qi Luck Town, to Qi Luck City, to Qi Luck Dynasty, Qi Luck Dynasty, Qi Luck Empire...

"I see, that means once you choose to 'promote', it is equivalent to leaving the 'novice protection period'. You gain more freedom, but you also need to take more risks?"

Xia Tian understood clearly in his heart.

In particular, there is one sentence in the reminder of the will of the earth - "Luck is endless, but catastrophe is boundless."

This is not the first time Xia Tian has heard it.

"So, this upgrade is different from the previous ones. It will cause the black energy that represents "catastrophe" to explode. Or is it some other test?"

Xia Tian's heart moved.

However, with the current strength of his territory, there should be no suspense about completing the promotion.

After thinking about it, a snow-white jade dragon armor appeared on Xia Tian's body, and he walked up to the sky from the lord's mansion step by step on the light ice mist!

"Everyone!"

A word from his mouth attracted the attention of everyone in the territory.

"Since arriving in the Eternal Land, this human territory has grown from being weak at the beginning to being strong today. From the beginning there was only me, to now there are tens of thousands of fellow human beings... Thanks to everyone's joint efforts, today The territory's luck has reached its limit. Therefore, I am preparing to further upgrade the territory...Some situations may happen next, so I hope you don't panic."

"The trapped camp, patrol guards, and Yunjiao Army all perform their duties..."

Although what Xia Tian said cannot be fully understood by most of the territory residents.

However, the trust cultivated over a long period of time made the original residents of the territory have no worries. Their faces were full of curiosity and surprise, and their mouths were whispering.

Although the new residents were a little uneasy, they quickly relaxed under the influence of the old residents.

In particular, after hearing the order, the three armies immediately put on armor and held knives, boarded the city wall fully armed, and all kinds of war facilities were fully prepared!

The morale of the people and the military are all available.

In this case, Xia Tian is not a person who likes to mess around.

"let's start!"

With a thought, 100,000 points of luck power were used at once, turning into a golden beam of light rising into the sky, straight into the clouds!

At the same time, invisible fluctuations radiate around, as if praying to an unknown existence.

"To the eternal heaven and earth, there is a human lord who has overcome all obstacles in the summer. He has worked conscientiously since the establishment of the territory, gathering tens of thousands of people, and resisting the catastrophe of living beings. His achievements are eternal... Please bear witness from heaven and earth, so as to embark on the 'Path of Destiny'!"

With the golden light soaring into the sky, communicating between heaven and earth!

Soon, Xia Tian felt that there seemed to be a huge will falling on his territory.

It was an extremely majestic, indescribably vast, but indifferent, plain, emotionless feeling, as if someone was overlooking everything from the void!

"Strange, I feel like something is watching me?"

Ordinary residents of the territory also sensed it, and whispered in surprise.

"It is the will of heaven and earth in the eternal land!"

Xia Tian has a clear understanding in his heart.

In the past, territory upgrading was essentially the "operation" of the will of the earth itself, but now to officially enter the "way of destiny", you need to obtain the approval of the will of heaven and earth in the eternal land!

After the will of heaven and earth emerged, the originally clear and blue sky suddenly became turbulent, and a large number of dark clouds gathered together to cover the entire territory.

There are flashes of thunder in it, like silver snakes shuttling through it, with great momentum!

"Hiss, what is this...it's so scary!"

Many territorial residents had discoloration on their faces.

Although everyone is used to facing various alien races, they still cannot completely feel at ease when faced with the power of nature.

In particular, the black clouds hang low and are less than a kilometer away from the territory. It is completely a scene of "black clouds are pressing down on the city and the city is about to be destroyed, and the mountain and rain are about to come, and the wind is filling the building"!

"Is this the legendary 'Tribulation Cloud'? Does it mean that in order for the territory to embark on the true path of destiny, it must first survive the test of thunder and calamity?"

Under the surging black clouds, Xia Tian, ​​who was wearing a snow-white jade dragon armor floating in the air, had a relatively calm face.

He possesses the "Thunder Power" and can sense the changes in thunder in the sky more strongly.

There is a power of coexistence of destruction and vitality in those bodies of lightning surging like silver snakes!

This is very similar to the legendary "Heavenly Tribulation".

But the question is, who is the target of the disaster?

"Crack!"

The next moment, dark clouds suddenly lit up in the sky.

Immediately, streaks of silver-white thunder descended from the sky like a roaring dragon and struck him!

"No way... when the territory is upgraded, the lord himself has to go through a thunder tribulation? Or maybe this tribulation is like thunder and lightning on the earth, striking the tallest one first!"

Xia Tian's mind flashes with lightning.

If he had known this would happen, he would never have flown into the air on purpose!

However, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Because, the white calamity thunder passed by him, and did not hit him, but fell on the "city" suspended above the territory, which evolved from the "luck gold stone" and has already taken shape. above!

"So it turns out that the 'Weapon of Luck' is going to survive the thunder tribulation?"

Xia Tian understood in his heart.

"Rumble..."

Thunder and lightning struck the "city".

Suddenly, a dazzling white light emitted, like a bright lotus blooming, and the majestic power of thunder and lightning enveloped and enveloped the entire "city".

When the power of thunder dissipated, the city did not change much. It was just that the surface was baked red by the high temperature caused by the thunder!

"Well, blocked?"

"It seems easier!"

"It seems there is no problem with our territory's 'promotion'!"

In the territory, Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu, Wu Song, Hua Rong and many other outstanding figures looked up at the sky.

Their transformed souls can feel that the thunder contains majestic power. If ordinary people come into direct contact, they will instantly turn into ashes!

But this "city"-shaped instrument of luck seems to be very strong and almost unscathed.

Click!

However, the second calamity thunder followed closely.

The power of the heavenly tribulation contained in it was at least 50% greater than that of the first one. It fell on the city and cracked some buildings with slight cracks.

"Buzz!"

However, soon after, in the sky.

The golden pillar of light formed by the movement of hundreds of thousands of qi emits a ray of light that merges into the "city", and is quickly repaired by the tempering of the "fire of luck" below.

In the blink of an eye, the entire city was restored to its original state!

Heaven and earth are the furnace, creation is the work; luck is the fire, and people's hearts are the hammer!

As long as the people's hearts in the territory are strong enough and the "weapon of luck" created is strong enough, it will not be too damaged by the bombardment of the catastrophe, and even if it is damaged, it can be quickly restored!

Boom boom boom...

Immediately afterwards, one after another thunderstorms fell towards the city, and the power contained in them became stronger and stronger each time. Landing on the "weapon of luck" was like hammering down again and again, causing the "weapon of luck" to be destroyed. At the same time, it also becomes more solid and solid with each repair!

At the same time, under the "Eye of Insight", the light it emits is also constantly changing!

After the first thunder tribulation, it changed from the initial white to green!

After the third thunder tribulation, it changed from green to blue!

During the fifth thunderstorm, several buildings in the city collapsed. After repairs, they turned silver!

During the seventh thunder tribulation, one-fifth of the city was destroyed. After repairs, it suddenly changed from silver to gold!

"This should represent the quality of the final forged 'Tool of Luck'?"

Xia Tian understood clearly in his heart.

Then, it was the eighth thunder tribulation!

This time, the power released by the thunder was extremely violent. The color of the thunder was dark purple, like a huge war hammer falling from the sky. It directly destroyed less than half of the entire city and consumed 20,000 Qi. The restoration of luck is complete!

At this time, Xia Tian faced a difficult choice. Should he let this "city" continue to face the catastrophe?

Xia Tian already knows from the information given by the will of the earth.

The natural disaster is indeed very fierce, but in fact, the "promotion" of the territory only needs to survive the first three "natural disasters".

In fact, you can choose to give up on each of the following catastrophes, but the quality and potential of the "weapon to suppress luck" finally created will be different!

"The 'people's support' of my territory is high enough, and the 'city' I forged is strong enough. It did not suffer too much damage in the previous seven rounds of thunder tribulation. Therefore, one hundred thousand fortunes are used for "upgrading" Of the strength, there are still about 50,000 left. Theoretically, there should be a chance to resist the next thunder tribulation!"

However, Xia Tian did not "stop".

According to Chinese tradition, nine is the ultimate number!

In myths and legends, heavenly tribulations always exist in multiples of nine, and the Eternal Land is closely related to the earth, so it should also follow this law.

If you can survive nine thunder tribulations, it should be considered a stage of "perfection" in a sense!

And just as Xia Tian thought, the calamity clouds in the sky seemed to be because they had reached the ninth level. This time they did not fall in a hurry like the previous eight times.

Instead, it slowly brewed, and in the dark clouds, the remaining power of the disaster gathered!

In the end, the color of the thunder and lightning formed suddenly changed from purple to black.

The shape is more like an extremely huge Thor's hammer, held by an invisible hand, and slowly but surely fell from the sky, hitting the golden color that was ten times stronger than its initial form." "Above the city"!

boom!

Black thunder erupted, with unparalleled destructive power, witnessed by many people below.

Not only was the "city" blasted into pieces, but even the fire of destiny was "bombarded" and annihilated together!

Then the dark clouds dissipated, leaving the sky empty.

"Did this fail?"

"How could it be possible? We failed!"

The faces of the tens of thousands of people in the territory looked a little confused.

Even though Xia Tian himself was a little surprised!

How could this ninth thunder tribulation be so terrifying?

Not only the city was destroyed, but the "Fire of Luck" was also annihilated.

Even if he still has 50,000 pieces of destiny power left, how can he rebuild and build a "city" without the "fire of destiny"?

"Is this... punishment for my 'greedy'?"

Xia Tian couldn't help but have an idea.

In the eighth round, less than half of the "city" was destroyed by the catastrophe.

If we stop at that time, we can at least obtain a top-notch golden quality treasure?

As a result, now that the ninth thunder tribulation has fallen, it has been destroyed along with the "Fire of Luck". Is this considered "losing both the wife and the army"?

If he was asked to choose again now, Xia Tian felt...

I will still decide this way!

After all, eight thunder tribulations and nine thunder tribulations are probably two completely different concepts!

"That city seems to have been destroyed?"

"Is this a failure? Sir, you seem to be feeling down!"

"Why is this happening? I would rather feel uncomfortable myself than let adults feel uncomfortable..."

The old residents of the Territory looked at the sky, Xia Tian remained silent.

In my heart, I suddenly felt very uncomfortable.

"I didn't expect that even Lord Xia's territory would not be able to pass the test of this 'Heavenly Tribulation', and it is even more impossible for our territory to be 'promoted'."

"I heard the Lord say that the path of destiny is the path chosen by the will of Kyushu for our human race! However, this path seems to be a dead end."

However, those people from other territories in Fangshi and Golden Platform did not know that this "heavenly tribulation" actually did not require resistance to nine rounds.

Therefore, when facing such a scene, he also looks very ugly!

Just when the entire territory fell silent and the atmosphere became a little gloomy.

"Hey, what is this?"

Suddenly, the crowd was graceful and Pan Jinlian let out a soft sigh.

Because, a ball of golden light flew out of her mind, gathering towards the sky like fireflies!

Not only her, but Wu Dalang, Wu Song, Danniu, Danniu Niang, Niu Niu... all the residents of the famous territory around her had golden dots of luck appearing on their bodies.

"Is this the power of luck?"

Xia Tian's eyes moved. It was a little bit of luck. This time it was not a gift from the will of the earth.

Rather, it comes from the hearts of every resident of the territory, from tens of thousands of people. After gathering together, light and shadow suddenly intersect, like a miraculous workmanship, building a city wall, city gate, and building in the void... In the blink of an eye, the previous ones were destroyed. The "city" reappeared over the territory.

Moreover, under the "Eye of Insight", a noble and elegant jade-white light suddenly emitted.

"Is this a gathering of fortunes, united as one, united as one?"

There was some surprise on Xia Tian's face.

The "city" that was obviously destroyed reappeared?

Is this considered another village with hidden flowers and bright flowers?

However, the re-condensed "city" is not its previous physical state.

Instead, it turned into a city that looked a bit illusory, and the buildings above were not completely complete!

【Immortal City (Jade White)】

[Type] Instrument of luck (treasure of heaven and earth)

[Level] Immortal (cannot be completely destroyed, and various buildings in the territory can obtain the 'immortal' characteristic when connected to the 'qi machine' of the immortal city, and can be restored after being broken), evolution ( The Immortal City can be upgraded as the territory level increases, and the wonder buildings associated with the Immortal City can be upgraded at the same time as the Immortal City is upgraded.

[Explanation] The first "weapon of luck" in the Eternal Land that has survived a complete thunderstorm has been recognized by the will of the Eternal Land and has huge potential.

[Remarks] The upgrade of the Immortal City and related buildings requires sufficient "power of luck" and sufficient quality building materials. The higher the quality of the materials, the more powerful they will be after the upgrade.

"Is the immortality the reason why it can be 'recovered'?"

Xia Tian's heart moved and she made some guesses.

“In addition, with the word ‘Heaven and Earth’, does it have ‘uniqueness’ like the Jiangshan Battle Map?”

This "Immortal City" does have some similarities with the "Jiangshan Battle Map", but it can actually allow the "Fantastic Object Building" to be upgraded?

After putting the "Marrow Cleansing Blood Pool" obtained from the Mountain Ghost Secret Realm into the "Jiangshan Battle Map", Xia Tian discovered that the Jiangshan Battle Map seemed unable to "activate" the strange objects and buildings together.

Now this "Immortal City" can upgrade rare objects and buildings, and can also repair the buildings in the territory?

You must know that both the strange objects and the strange objects and buildings themselves can be destroyed. Once destroyed by the enemy, no matter how powerful the strange objects are, they will have no meaning. Now with this "Immortal City", everything is completely different. , even if the entire territory is in ruins due to fighting, it can still be restored to its original state!

More importantly, as a "weapon of luck" it can advance along with the advancement of territory.

At the same time, it can also drive the wonders and buildings associated with it to improve together, and its value is self-evident!

"However, there will be a reward for the first person to pass nine thunder tribulations? This is a bit surprising."

Once upon a time, when I read novels on Earth and found that there was a setting of extra rewards for being the first to advance, Xia Tian would always complain about it being unreasonable.

But now that his territory has become the lord, Xia Tian feels that it is very reasonable!

After all, surviving the "nine thunder tribulations" is much more difficult than initially imagined.

You must know that the public support of the residents in his territory is already high. Zhuge Liang's "Prime Minister" talent also has the additional effect of greatly gathering people's support. In addition, he defeated the mountain ghost and gained a huge amount of extra luck, which was integrated into the "city" "Among them!"

In this way, it was almost impossible to survive the "nine" thunder tribulations, and the rest of the territory probably didn't have much of a chance.

Even if we go to great lengths to manage the "people's hearts" and actually create an instrument of luck that has withstood nine thunder tribulations, it will only be of ordinary jade quality and cannot be compared with this "Immortal City" that is rated as a treasure of heaven and earth!
