Chapter 456

Many fire-type monsters were born.

Under the poisonous, scorching sunlight,

a Blazing Hound with its tongue lolling out

suddenly lunged at Su Yu, who was dressed in black,

darting out from the war fog like a streak of fire.

Seeing this, Su Yu waved his hand lightly,

and light bloomed at his fingertips.

He pierced that Blazing Hound clean through, chilling it to the bone.

"Should be, almost there."

Su Yu gazed at the coordinates on his Lord Terminal, murmuring softly.

It wasn't far from the territory coordinates given by Die Ren.

Since he was entering a former Lord's territory,

this time, he didn't fly through the air recklessly,

but traveled on foot instead.

However, even traveling on foot, his speed was astonishingly fast.

Ever since Yi Luoti reached level 30 and comprehended "Light Teleportation,"

he had taught her every day how to use light,

and although he himself hadn't learned it,

still,

relying on light, covering a mile per step was no problem.

It was somewhat similar to spatial transfer, but not quite,

light particles carried Su Yu's body forward,

quite similar to the Daoist art of Shrinking the Earth to an Inch.

Ahead, the war fog dispersed,

and the view opened up suddenly.

Su Yu immediately understood that he had entered the activity range of a Lord faction.

He squinted slightly, gazing at the blazing sun in the sky.

"This Xia Yi really isn't pulling its weight, can't even feel the heat anymore…"

Along the way,

Su Yu's comprehension of light had deepened considerably.

This sun was itself a manifestation of light.

Scorching heat?

Flames?

Temperature?

Once one comprehends light, none of these are to be feared.

Just as Yi Luoti said,

light is omnipotent.

Su Yu gazed into the distance at the unfamiliar territory.

Lofty city walls appeared within his field of vision.

Human territory factions all had a fondness for building city walls.

……

"How's that guy to the west doing?"

Yan Fu's voice was weary, his brows knit with worry.

His territory had lost two heroes in succession,

and his territory's strength could be said to have suffered an enormous weakening.

On the Myriad Realms Battlefield, once you grow weak,

your opponents will be pleased.

Although he was within the Human Alliance's territory,

there was still warfare between territories.

Not long ago,

Yan Fu had wiped out a territory.

And now,

to the east, south, west, and north,

territories less than a thousand kilometers from him were watching him with covetous eyes.

There's no wall that doesn't let wind through,

when famous neutral units come to visit your territory,

when farmer units and merchants from other territories

come to your place to trade and exchange resources,

you can't exactly refuse, can you?

After all, once a territory grows large,

If all resources were handled through the 【Trading House】,

then the lord could do nothing all day long, just staring at the Trading House.

On the surface, it was harmonious and joyful,

but beneath, dark currents surged.

After Yan Fu drove away merchants and travelers from other territories,

and announced the city's lockdown,

the lords around him noticed his abnormality.

He couldn't avoid driving them away,

because the territory's abnormal state,

with just a little more contact,

would reveal the farmers' units' irregularities.

One hero defected, one hero died;

for a territory with only three heroes, the blow was immense.

Moreover,

Yan Fu had established the farmers' faith through heroes;

once the heroes were lost, the farmers' units' status would be affected,

and the territory's development would stall for a period.

"No signs of troop movement yet."

Lei Di, the territory's second hero, replied with his head bowed,

his thick brows furrowed with worry.

As the territory's sole remaining hero,

he felt concern for the territory.

This hurdle needed him to bear it and push through.

"The Great Flood Tide is coming."

"If they make a move, it should be after summer ends..."

Yan Fu pondered,

yet a trace of unease lingered in his heart;

his territory,

had ended up in this state

only to complete the task of the Immortal Cultivation civilization.
