A few minutes later, the battle was over. It was easy to the point that Cheng Yang felt ashad he had been worrying so much.
Yagni had used a few other skills, but nothing with damage on par with the lava wave. So, Enlai was able to tank those attacks with ease.
When it died, Yagnis body solidified, then crumbled into jagged heaps of rock. At the sa ti, the lava lake surrounding them began to flow into an unseen drain. A few seconds later, the remaining magma solidified into softly glowing stone.
My Lord, whats going on here? Jiang Yang asked in fear. To them, this situation was a little too similar to the earthquake that ended the world.
The dungeon is transitioning into a conquered state. If it didnt, how would anyone be able to farm monsters here? Cheng Yang said, Its nothing to worry about.
Thats true. Jiang Yang said with a curt nod. But wouldnt that make the na Magma Wastes a misnor?
If you have the ti to worry about the nas, tidy up the map youre making. Cheng Yang grumbled.
Jiang Yang chuckled but didnt remark on Cheng Yangs outburst.
Ignoring that, Cheng Yang walked over to Yagnis remains. He sifted through the rubble until he found a small red velvet bag.
When he picked it up, Cheng Yang confird what was inside: Fire Spirit Fruit seeds. There were eight of them, a higher amount than dropped on average.
Cheng Yang grinned. Thank goodness the reward for conquering the Magma Wastes was the sa as in his previous life.
As the na suggested, the seeds would grow into a fruit tree that would produce Fire Spirit Fruits when planted. Although fresh fruit would be a treasure in its own right during the apocalypse, the Fire Spirit Fruits were far from ordinary.
The first open-world dungeon near every safe zone was the Magma Wastes, so the fruits properties were well known. They could be used to create powerful potions or supplent soones training when eaten raw.
If a Low-Grade Apprentice ate a Fire Spirit Fruit, they would imdiately level up. After eating another two, they would level up again.
Fire Spirit Fruits were the kind of treasure people would kill for. Think about it. Others would toil for months to achieve what soone else did by eating a light snack.
Befitting such an item, the Fire Spirit Fruits were exceedingly rare. If there was a way to get them other than defeating Yagni, Cheng Yang didnt know about it. You also could only eat three before they lost their effectiveness. Moreover, each tree only produced twenty to thirty fruits with each harvest.
Speaking of the trees, it would take quite a while before they had grown enough to bear fruit. Thankfully, the gods rules sped up the process significantly. Otherwise, even five years after planting the seeds, you wouldnt get any fruit.
Since most areas didnt obtain the seeds until after a few months had passed, the value of the Fire Spirit Fruits diminished significantly in the eyes of the worlds leaders. The fruit would be only marginally helpful to them since they would fill their experience bars by an eighth or less.
However, Cheng Yang would extract far more value from them since all of his subordinates were still low-level.
When we get back, Ill give each of you a hundred contribution points. Cheng Yang announced with a broad smile. This trip to the Magma Wastes had been a productive one.
Jiang Yang and the others were delighted. Theyd already earned a large number of Experience Fragnts from this mission, so gaining so contribution points was the cherry on top. With this many, they might be able to exchange for the rights to train using the Nirvana Feather.
My Lord, when will the dungeon be available for normal use? Jiang Yang asked.
Monsters will start spawning here at midnight, so youll be able to bring a hunting party in tomorrow morning. Cheng Yang said, Be careful and co prepared.
Dont worry, my Lord, well let the generals organize the expedition. Jiang Yang replied.
As they left, Cheng Yang put away Undines Tear. After conquering the dungeon, the magma was either dried up or solidified, making the cavern only as warm as a sumr day. Those patches of solidified magma would birth new monsters, but they would never flow freely like they used to.
Once they got back to Phoenix Village, Cheng Yang summoned Zhao Chuan to his ditation Hall.
My Lord, I was successfully able to acquire the Statue Lifting Stone. Zhao Chuan said once he arrived. To him, it was apparent what Cheng Yang wanted to know. In the end, I only needed to spend three hundred thousand Experience Fragnts.
Cheng Yang took the Statue Lifting Stone and the leftover Experience Fragnts with a smile. With this, he would strengthen not only the territory but himself as well.
Well have to spend more ti browsing the Auction House, so we dont miss good things in the future. Cheng Yang mused before ordering Zhao Chuan to handle implenting that.
Once Cheng Yang used the Statue Lifting stone, his Magic Attack attribute nearly doubled. With this, he could deal over 200 damage with a single attack. If you included the bonuses from his skill level, equipnt, and potions, Cheng Yangs attacks had reached fearso levels.
With a heart filled with excitent, Cheng Yang began the days training.
That night, Cheng Yangs experience bar surpassed the three-quarters mark. He would level up in six days at this pace, allowing him to reach the second stage of evolution.
Then, when the village reached the Pinnacle-Grade level, he would be able to level up again using Divine Grace. He would be able to challenge the Hell Difficulty of the Blood-Soaked Church with the Imperial Guard and clear the Forgotten Grave on Nightmare Difficulty.
Although Cheng Yang hadnt finished gathering the wood necessary for a High-Grade wall, it wouldnt be long before he could build one the size he wanted it to be.
When he exited the ditation Hall, Cheng Yang stared into the deep blue sky. Today was the one month anniversary of the apocalypse. It would also be a day of great sorrow and joy around the world as the gods instituted yet more rules. The gods would save the unlucky survivors in rural areas, but high-Grade monsters would beco standard in exchange.
