Chapter 133: Floating Small Courtyard

Although the Spirit Hall has many resources, when they are truly needed, they cannot meet Jerry's demand.

The blacksmith industry in this world is not developed, the materials used are very few, and the minerals mined are also very scarce.

Therefore, even though the Spirit Hall is purchasing heavily, the resources collected now are still far, far too little.

But there is no other way now; whether it is opening new mines or collecting resources, everything needs to be done slowly. Jerry has waited for a month and is getting a bit impatient!

Jerry had investigated before: at a height of 500 meters, ordinary people can fully adapt; at a height of 1,000 meters, some ordinary people will experience chest tightness, though Spirit Masters can adapt at this height. At 2,000 meters, those above Great Spirit Master can adapt. At 3,000 meters, those above Soul Elder can adapt. At 4,000 meters, those above Soul Ancestor can adapt. 5,000 meters for Soul King, 6,000 meters for Soul Emperor, 7,000 meters for Soul Saint, 8,000 meters for Spirit Douluo, and 9,000 meters for Title Douluo.

Any higher is the 10,000-meter mark, where there seems to be a barrier. After passing through this barrier, the soul power particles in the atmosphere move very quickly and are highly active, making them a bit difficult to absorb.

Jerry found materials and made a base 15 meters in length and width, carving many Rule Symbols onto it.

He then had the people from the Development Department build a Small Courtyard on top, and Jerry carved solid Rule Symbols onto the Small Courtyard as well.

For the first experiment, the courtyard only had a perimeter wall. Considering the need for movement later, Jerry installed a jet engine on all four sides of the wall, directly taking what was left over from previously manufactured Spirit Guidance Planes to use.

Inside the wall, Jerry had people build a simple, ancient-style house, with a small garden and a pavilion outside, as well as a small 3m x 3m Teleportation Array.

Subsequently, Jerry activated the Rune Rules of the base.

The base began to slowly absorb the soul power from the air. One hour later, the Energy Storage Device inside was full, and then the entire base, carrying the building above, began to slowly rise into the air, stopping at a height of 1,000 meters.

Jerry did not use jet engines for the base, otherwise, it would have to be kept on, consuming too much energy. So, based on the previous Gravity Field Rule Symbols, Jerry researched the Anti-Gravity Rule Symbol, which consumes much less than jet engines.

Afterward, Jerry teleported directly into the Small Courtyard via the Teleportation Array on the ground.

He took a breath of air; it was very fresh, but the wind at high altitude was a bit strong, so Jerry immediately carved a Wind Shield Rule Symbol on the wall. Thinking that since the wind shield was already carved, the Spirit Gathering Array should also be carved. Since it is for Spirit Masters to live at a height of 1,000 meters, he simply carved a Spirit Gathering Array ten times stronger for Spirit Masters.

Jerry had previously set up the Cultivation Tower and originally planned to call it the Spirit Gathering Array, but thinking that this world is all soul power, he renamed it the Spirit Gathering Array. If it were in other worlds, hearing this name, it would feel a bit evil.

As this Small Courtyard rose, the people of Wuhun City all saw it, and everyone was exclaiming and discussing it.

The Great Elder led a group of Elders and flew directly to this courtyard.

"Jerry, is this the big event you mentioned?" the Great Elder asked.

"Not exactly! There is a bit of a gap from what was originally expected. I originally planned to lift the entire Inner City of Wuhun City, but after waiting for a month, the materials were insufficient, so I could only start by making a floating Small Courtyard."

"The Small Courtyard has a Teleportation Array, so when the time comes, we just need to build a Teleportation Array on the ground."

"However, I later discovered that at different heights, the adaptability of Spirit Masters is different. Many of the Spirit Hall personnel are ordinary people, and their adaptability to high altitudes is only 500 meters. At 500 meters, any Great Spirit Master who can fly can fly up, which is different from my original intention."

"So I plan to set up the Nine Heavens of Spirit Masters. Starting from 1,000 meters, every 1,000 meters is a layer, for a total of nine layers. All the houses belong to the Spirit Hall, and they have the effect of a Cultivation area, so the rent is a bit expensive."

"By the way, a layer is also set at 500 meters, and all the offices of the Spirit Hall are set on this layer. This way, we only need to find an area on the ground to build a Teleportation Array, saving a lot of space."

"So in the future, including the ground, Wuhun City will have eleven layers, and they are all Teleportation Arrays, without building roads, so it won't block the light below!"

"Currently, the Spirit Hall uses the most land area in Wuhun City, and these vacant spaces can be used to build other things later."

"This can also solve the current problem of tight housing and rising housing prices. In the future, there won't be any distinction between the first, second, or third ring below!"

"Great Elder, and all Elders, what do you think of my idea?"

All the Elders were currently in shock.

An Elder spoke up at this moment.

"Lord Jerry, once everything is lifted into the air in the future, it will be a bit difficult to deploy guards for the families!" Now, no matter who it is, they respectfully address Jerry as 'Lord', even the Title Douluo are no exception.

"You don't need to worry about this. At that time, we will install the same defensive Spirit Guidance Devices as on the planes. Basic Defense Shields and Soul Guidance Cannons will all be arranged, so there will be no need for guards outside in the future!"

"The family members have different cultivation levels, so which layer should we live on?"

"I am still researching the air pressure issue. Once the research is done, there will be no need for cultivation restrictions on each layer. Besides, construction won't be that fast right now. The Spirit Hall and the families of the Elders will not move for now. The houses being built now are for Spirit Masters without families!"

"Jerry, you said this house can move, aren't you afraid that others will take the house and run away, leaving us with neither house nor wealth?"

"I have thought about this problem. I have set up a console for each courtyard. Others can only use the Teleportation Array and defensive functions. As for the attack and movement functions, a separate controller is required, and this controller is held by the Spirit Hall."

"This Elder missed one point: these floating, moving houses are also important strategic weapons. If any Empire goes to war with us in the future, we can directly control these houses to fly over their heads and bomb them. However, this function needs to be kept secret by everyone and cannot be spread. It can only be activated when the Spirit Hall encounters foreign enemies!"

"Wow, so Lord Jerry had already thought of this!"

"I really want to move in right now!"

"You have a family, aren't you going to worry about them?"

"I can't worry about that much anymore, I want to move in first!"

"That's true, living in the sky is something I never dared to imagine before!"

These Elders were looking here and there, all feeling very curious.

"Jerry, I think we should come up with a good name! 'Nine Heavens of Spirit Masters' is a bit unworthy of this floating courtyard," the Great Elder said.

"That's right, the first layer can be used by ordinary people, I think this layer should also be added!"

"Ten for perfection, exactly ten layers!"

"No, I feel that nine is the extreme of numbers, the ultimate number of heaven and earth, starting at one and ending at nine, so nine layers are enough. How about this: the first layer is called Floating City, and the nine layers above are named after Heaven. The first layer is Spirit Master Heaven, the second is Great Spirit Master Heaven, the third is Spirit Grandmaster Heaven, the fourth is Spirit Ancestor Heaven, the fifth is Spirit King Heaven, the sixth is Spirit Emperor Heaven, the seventh is Spirit Sage Heaven, the eighth is Spirit Douluo Heaven, and the ninth is directly called Extreme of Heaven! What do you Elders think?" After Jerry finished speaking, he looked at the Elders.

"Not bad, it sounds much better than 'Nine Heavens'!"

"I always felt the names of the previous Cultivation Tower and Gravity Field were too lackluster. Giving such useful places such casual names!"

"Exactly, Lord Jerry doesn't seem to know how to name things!"

"Lord Jerry can research so many things, can't he research a good-sounding name? He just didn't have the time!"

Jerry listened to their discussion with black lines on his forehead. Isn't this a roundabout way of saying I'm bad at naming? Really, the names I come up with are simple and easy to understand, clear at a glance, isn't that good?
