Chapter 404

A trace of burning heat inevitably flashed in his eyes.

If it were merely a single Diamond Tier combat power, although it would help him now.

The help would not be great.

After all, last night he had already promoted his territory to the Gold Tier. Relying on his own strength—"663"—and the support of his Lv. 13 Lord Talent 'Spellcasting', it was just enough to make his attack power barely reach the Diamond Tier.

Of course.

It was only attack power.

Besides the Lord Talent 'Spellcasting' which boosts spiritual power.

He had not added a single point to the other three combat talents.

Yet a territory unit of the Diamond Tier.

Is not reflected merely in combat power.

It is most importantly reflected in the various rankings!

And the rankings on these various lists come with astonishing rewards that can, in turn, greatly enhance the territory's strength!

The strong grow ever stronger!

Without much hesitation.

He directly sent the lowest price he could offer to Li Yue.

Cloud City...

Demon Abyss...

Heart of Death...

Thunderfall Valley...

God-Demon Graveyard...

Among these top-tier territories.

Every single existence that had once stood at the peak of the Demigod realm, upon seeing this message—all without any hesitation, sent the highest price they could offer to Li Yue! Even—several of them began listing some of their precious items on the trading interface.

These items.

Many were quite precious.

But to exchange for a Diamond Upgrade Scroll.

They spared no cost!

Lord Chenxi Territory.

Li Yue looked at the massive influx of private messages, a smile curling at the corner of his lips.

He naturally knew.

How great the temptation a Diamond Upgrade Scroll posed to those top-tier lords at present.

Those top-tier lords.

Three days ago, the strongest territory unit in their hands was merely Gold Tier; now—it was at most Gold Tier, and that was only possible because those lords had spared no blood and treasure to cultivate them.

And now there was an opportunity.

To allow them to directly obtain a Diamond Tier territory unit.

This gap became apparent.

No matter how powerful the means those top-tier lords possessed.

Promoting a Gold Tier territory unit to the Diamond Tier would not be easy.

It required time.

Even possessing such an astonishing treasure as the Diamond Flower, they would still need to let the territory unit reach perfection at the Gold Tier, and only then could it be consumed to promote, perhaps another ten days or half a month later.

He brought out the Diamond Upgrade Scroll to sell.

It would definitely not fetch the current price. At that time—some top-tier lords should already have had Diamond Tier combat power. "This lord of Mad Lion City bids 1.3 million energy." "The lord of the God-Demon Graveyard bids 1.5 million energy!"

"What is Thunderfall Valley's background, to bid 1.65 million energy?" "The Wushigong Society is indeed wealthy and powerful, bidding 2.1 million energy!" "Tsk tsk, the Heart of Death is even richer, bidding 2.2 million energy."

"Elven Capital? A territory established by High Elves? Bidding 2.3 million energy."

"Huh? Dragon Island? This must be some Demigod-level dragon; no wonder it's the Dragon Clan, bidding 2.45 million energy." "The Holy Angels of Cloud City are even more formidable, directly bidding 2.6 million energy!"

"Scarlet Witch? I haven't seen her name on the rankings twice before, yet she bids 2.8 million energy!" Li Yue flipped through the private messages, marveling in astonishment.

These top-tier lords are indeed wealthy.

Each bid is one or two million energy.

This made him envious beyond measure.

He knew very well.

Such vast amounts of energy possessed by these top-tier lords could definitely not have been earned on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Races. Most—absolutely all—were exchanged for various treasures they had brought with them.

Moreover, they themselves needed to consume vast amounts of energy. Yet after he sent the message—they could directly produce such astonishing amounts of energy!

A little over half an hour later.

He finished reading all the private messages.

The highest bids for the Diamond Upgrade Scroll came from the Scarlet Witch Territory and Cloud City.

One bid 2.8 million energy, the other 2.6 million energy.

As for the Gold Upgrade Scroll, the price was much lower.

The quotes were basically between 200,000 and 300,000 energy.

This was normal.

After all, at present—the most top-tier lords should already have Gold Tier units.

Moreover, their own strength was absolutely already standing at the Gold Tier.

The demand for Gold-tier combat power had naturally diminished significantly.

Moreover, it offered little help for the leaderboard rankings. Soon, he completed transactions with the Scarlet Witch Camp, Cloud City, and the remaining territories. After deducting fees, he obtained a total of 9.8 million energy!

This brought the energy in his possession to a staggering number.

Previously, only about 3.4 million energy remained...

The final third of items on the trading interface were also sold off, yielding 3.8 million energy. Adding it all up—he now possessed 17 million energy!

"17 million."

A look of joy appeared on Li Yue's lips.

If all of it were used to summon and synthesize Shi Shi Witches, it would be enough to summon and synthesize more than ten Shi Shi Witches!

Gazing at the Witch Camp before him.

"Synthesize one more Shi Shi Witch, then head to the Lilenni Kingdom," he murmured softly to himself.

It was not that he did not wish to reach the Lilenni Kingdom sooner.

Rather, the army of the Lilenni Kingdom would not arrive until around noon.

He was not a nanny.

The Lilenni Kingdom faced an attack by Dark Creatures.

He would only assist in slaying Shi Shi-tier Dark Creatures. The remaining Dark Creatures—the Lilenni Kingdom's own army would still have to face them.

Moreover, according to intelligence.

After the annihilation of Zina City by that group of Dark Creatures.

They did not, like the Dark Creatures in the Xinei Kingdom, march to slay the next city.

Instead, they began establishing defensive positions. "Baqila, are you ready?"

Li Yue looked at a Poly-Sound Sorcerer behind him. "Yes, my lord!"

The Poly-Sound Sorcerer Baqila bowed deeply, a look of joy on his face. Hush—witch after witch appeared and vanished.

Time passed.

Three hours later.

Three soulless Diamond Witches appeared in the camp.

Li Yue controlled four white synthesis slots to envelop the four witches.

Simultaneously, a perfect-grade Mana Stone was enveloped in the auxiliary synthesis slot.

This synthesis.

He could only provide one auxiliary material.

The second required item, the 'Poly-Sound Giant Snake Core', he had nowhere to find.

However, even if there was only one auxiliary material.
