Dragon's Origin

Chapter 205: Camp Completed (Part 2)

In this Yuanhun world where the strong are respected, everyone hopes to improve their cultivation. After those with ulterior motives were dealt with, the rest were basically without divided loyalties.

At least, under the stimulation of building this camp and having their own room for cultivation that could also be transferred, all the craftsmen and guards were giving it their all, starting construction with twelve thousand percent of their energy.

Guards above the fifth level of cultivation felt their cultivation improve by leaps and bounds within a short month. One month of cultivation here was more than three times as efficient as being outside.

The most exaggerated case was a guard who had been stuck at the bottleneck, the peak of the fifth level, unable to improve for four or five years. As a result, after only a month of guarding and cultivating here, he miraculously suddenly had an epiphany, then triggered a spiritual energy tempering, and officially advanced to the sixth level.

In his own words, he suddenly felt a vast and unparalleled power in that martial arts will, which suddenly made him see the light after being stuck in a dead end for several years. Once he understood, there were naturally no more obstacles. He was already on the verge of advancement, and immediately triggered a spiritual energy tempering as soon as he stepped over that threshold.

There is nothing more inspiring than a living example. In the following days, whether it was the craftsmen or the guards, they all seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, and their enthusiasm for work was comparable to everyone having shares in the company.

Half a month later, there was another case of advancement. But this time it was not a guard expert, but a craftsman.

The advanced craftsman was an honest craftsman, honestly working and honestly using spiritual energy to support certain skills. As he was working, he suddenly felt relaxed all over, and the spiritual energy tempering came instantly.

Looking at other people's examples, feeling the improvement of their spiritual energy, no one doubted whether there were benefits to cultivating in Qian Jue Di (千绝地: Thousand Absolute Land). However, the prerequisite for cultivating peacefully was that everyone quickly completed the construction of this camp.

The stones dug out of the mountain walls had already been used to build two city walls, thick enough and high enough, with small arrays to assist. Even basic demonic beasts like the Great Power Ape King could not shake them.

A dozen array masters also arranged a circle of camouflage and protection arrays on the surrounding mountain walls. In this way, the people in the valley had to guard against mostly flying demonic beasts.

There was also a solution for this. Some of the large trees in the valley that were large enough were not removed, but were kept. These large trees were basically distributed in every corner of the valley, and the crowns were large enough to almost cover all the ground in the valley.

Each large tree was covered with a camouflage array. In this way, when viewed from the air, as long as it was not an array mage, it was basically impossible to see what was below. Even the most powerful demonic beasts could not see through the array in terms of intelligence, and their eyesight could not break through the array to see the people below.

The morale of the people in the valley was higher day by day, their energy was more abundant day by day, and their work efficiency was higher day by day.

The only two people who seemed relatively idle were Wang Sheng and Lingxu old Taoist. However, the old Taoist was Wang Sheng's guard, protecting Wang Sheng while cultivating. It seemed that he was doing nothing with Wang Sheng, but he was indeed fulfilling his responsibilities. You can't say that the old Taoist was idle, so the only idle person seemed to be Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng was also cultivating. His current cultivation was not enough to feel the existence of martial arts will, and Wang Sheng himself knew very well that martial arts will was just a sign, a trap, a cover to attract the attention of experts, so Wang Sheng's mind was not on that martial arts will at all.

What he often discussed with the old Taoist was the remaining three words of the Nine Character Mantra, “Dou Lie Xing(斗列行: Fight Array Action)”. The old Taoist's Taoism was profound, and sometimes he could give Wang Sheng some inspiration.

No one thought there was anything wrong with Wang Sheng being idle and not working. Not to mention that this place was discovered by Wang Sheng leading everyone, just the two stone rooms that Wang Sheng dug out had already exceeded the average workload of most craftsmen.

Moreover, who would be stupid enough to question Wang Sheng why he didn't work in Qian Jue Di(千绝地: Thousand Absolute Land)? Were they full and had nothing to do? Or were they tired of living and wanted something "unexpected" to happen?

For a full three months, the old Taoist was thinking about understanding the Nine Character Mantra and the first chapter of the Tao Te Ching that Wang Sheng recited. Finally, one day, the old Taoist suddenly asked about the next few chapters.

Wang Sheng basically had no control over Lingxu old Taoist. This person was to his liking. Although his seniority was extremely high, they were compatible. So Wang Sheng said nothing and recited the second to sixth chapters of the Tao Te Ching from his memory.

“……Therefore, existence and non-existence produce each other, difficulty and ease complement each other, long and short contrast each other, high and low incline each other, sound and voice harmonize each other, and front and back follow each other……”

“……Act by non-action, and then there is nothing that is not governed.”

“……Resolve its entanglements, harmonize its light, be one with its dust, be still as though it exists……”

“Heaven and earth are unkind, treating all things as straw dogs……”

“The spirit of the valley never dies, it is called the mysterious female. The gate of the mysterious female is called the root of heaven and earth. It exists continuously, and its use is unwearying.”

When he recited to this point, the old Taoist's face became more and more peaceful, and a smile cracked at the corner of his mouth, and then he slowly pondered and thought.

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ book ⊥⊥ bar ⊥⊥ first ⊥ hair!

For a full three hours, the old Taoist sat here motionless, just smiling and thinking. Wang Sheng also accompanied him, protecting him while comprehending himself.

“Hahahaha!” Suddenly, the old Taoist's presumptuous laughter rang out frantically, shaking the forest. The entire valley shook with the old Taoist's laughter, and countless people looked in this direction with horrified faces.

Next, unimaginable violent spiritual energy poured into the old Taoist's body frantically. The old Taoist finally advanced.

Everyone stared blankly at this scene, unable to believe their eyes. The old Taoist, who could kill three eighth-level experts at any time, also advanced under the influence of martial arts will. What level is this old Taoist now? Ninth level? The legendary ninth-level expert?

The continuous spiritual energy tempering lasted for a full two days and two nights without interruption, which also filled countless people's hearts with confidence in this camp again. Even a peak expert like the old Taoist could break through, so they definitely had a chance to go to the next level!

Crazy confidence inspired everyone to be as excited as if they had been injected with stimulants, and the efficiency of their work increased again. Under everyone's hard work, two months later, all the mountain wall stone caves were completed, the public functional buildings in the middle were also completed, and the safety system was completely constructed.

This also meant that this forward camp in Qian Jue Di(千绝地: Thousand Absolute Land) was declared completed and could be opened to experts from all sides.
