The universe maps of the seven great clans contained maps of over a hundred star regions, each with detailed coordinates.
These star region maps converged before Ye Yun, and under the automatic operation of the Heavenly Dao, they pieced together a three-dimensional image like scattered puzzle pieces. However, this three-dimensional image was severely incomplete, with over a hundred star region maps accounting for less than a thousandth of the whole.
What is this?
Ye Yun suddenly discovered a red dot between one star region and another.
Ye Yun focused his gaze, and the spot instantly magnified infinitely, revealing a colossal black hole before him.
Domain Gate? Or Cosmic Gate?
Domain Gates were the portals to each star region. For instance, the black hole within the demon lair of the Mi character country was a Domain Gate leading to the demon star region.
"System prompt: Congratulations to the player for collecting maps of three or more star regions. The system has automatically unlocked the map of the player's current human star region! Note: Currently, the human star region map is for the player's exclusive use. Other human players will have it automatically unlocked upon reaching level 75!"
Holy crap!
Ye Yun couldn't help but grumble as the system notification echoed in his ears. He hadn't expected the prerequisite for star region maps to be level 75!
Ye Yun eagerly looked at his Cosmic Plane Map. Near the demon star region map, a vast azure star region map appeared, its size far exceeding that of the demon star region!
Unfortunately, apart from the Blue Star, which showed signs of life, the human star region was entirely filled with barren planets.
No!
Ye Yun suddenly noticed a golden light dot in a corner of the human star region, with no map beyond it. In another corner, there was a red light dot?
Ye Yun had also seen golden light dots on the maps provided by the seven clans, but there were only four of them. What were these?
"What do the various colored light dots on the map represent?" Ye Yun asked casually.
"Master, red light dots represent Domain Gates. Golden light dots represent Cosmic Gates, which are the gates of the Ten Directions Cosmos," Yue Di and the others, unlike Lu Jie, had clearly traversed between cosmic realms.
The Tenth Direction Cosmic Gate?
Ye Yun looked at the golden light dot, five million kilometers away from the Blue Star, his brows furrowed into a tight line. No wonder the human star region was so barren; the Cosmic Gate was within his own star region. This explained everything.
Considering the cosmic realms Yue Xia had traversed, it was around four directions. Combined with the Cosmic Gate of his Tenth Direction Cosmos, Ye Yun now knew five Cosmic Gates! They were the transitions between the Tenth and Ninth, Seventh and Eighth, Seventh and Sixth, Sixth and Fifth, and Fifth and Fourth directions.
Wait a minute. Yue Xia mentioned that his ancestors were also descendants of humans. Why didn't they have the Cosmic Gates connecting the Tenth and Ninth, and the Ninth and Eighth Directions?
Could there be humans in other cosmic directions as well?
With this thought, Ye Yun shook his head, discarding the杂念 from his mind. He hadn't even fully explored the Tenth Direction Cosmos yet, and to top it off, there was a Cosmic Gate in his own star region, meaning the Blue Star's star region could face an invasion from the Eighth Direction Cosmos at any moment!
He must strengthen his power!
Ye Yun's desire for strength surged once more. After staying on the New Mortal Continent for so long, he had refined over two hundred top-grade辟谷丹 and more than a thousand good-grade辟谷丹 from the people of the seven clans, which would allow him to significantly enhance his strength.
In the past ten-odd days, through the Heavenly Pot and Earth Cup, Ye Yun's attributes had increased by severalfold, consuming all his remaining good-grade辟谷丹. Now, the amount of elixirs required for him to manifest his strength was even more terrifying.
"Lu Jie, as a player of the Tenth Direction, I should naturally offer you some consideration. However, you are aware that all races are watching me."
"But I can grant you the same status as them and give you a share according to the main city's citizen distribution. The prerequisite is that you continue to stay by Mu Tuo's side and gather intelligence on the Mu Wu Clan's movements."
Having made an enemy of Yao Die within the Heavenly Dao, and judging by the reactions from various factions, this wooden doll woman was a vengeful person. He and she were destined to be enemies!
"Yes, my lord." As a great power in a star region, Lu Jie knew how insignificant his strength was in the cosmos!
Having been on the New Mortal Continent for nearly two months, he deeply understood how brutal the rules of survival were in this world.
"Alright, develop well, and then establish yourself. No matter how powerful an individual is, if the rest of his race is wiped out, you will be left alone."
Without further ado, Ye Yun entered the City Lord's Mansion of Yunyi City and began constructing buildings to upgrade the territory level.
The initial area of a sub-city was very small, but because it was a sub-city, its capacity for citizens was comparable to a main city! For example, at level one territory, its capacity was 390 players, equivalent to 10% of a main city plus the inherent capacity of a level one territory.
In less than five minutes, Yunyi City's territory area reached ten square kilometers, and its territory level also reached level nine. All buildings, thanks to Ye Yun's massive accumulation of Myriad Phenomena Stones, were upgraded to level nine!
It could be said that Yunyi City's buildings now surpassed Yuntian City!
Compared to the Cloud Spreading Orders required to upgrade Yuntian City, the upgrade tokens for ground territories were undoubtedly more common. If not for the territory level being limited by the main city, with Ye Yun's quantity of Earth City tokens, he could have further upgraded this sub-city to a one-star city!
The level above level nine territory was level ten, followed by star ratings.
Star City! On the entire New Mortal Continent, only five cities had reached above one star!
"Master, this sub-city's player capacity has reached 4224. Shall we open recruitment?"
As soon as the buildings were upgraded, Liu Sao became impatient.
For any territory, as long as the offered agreement was sufficiently stringent, the more skilled players the better.
For example, if Yunyi City's citizen capacity was full, and the main city achieved the first rank in territory ranking, the citizens of the sub-city would also receive 50% of the main city's citizen spirit stone reward, which was 2500 spirit stones.
However, according to the agreement, 90% of these 2500 spirit stones would go into Ye Yun's pocket, meaning the sub-city citizen would receive 250 spirit stones themselves.
The reward for main city citizens was 5000 spirit stones. Apart from the seven clans and Lu Jie, individual citizens could receive 500 spirit stones, with the remainder also going into Ye Yun's pocket.
Therefore, Ye Yun had no reason to refuse.
Soon, Yue Di and Liu Sao's voices began broadcasting advertisements in turns throughout the entire region.
Each voice advertisement cost one spirit stone!
These two were so wealthy!
While Liu Sao went out to arrange things, Ye Yun remained in the mansion, withdrawing his consciousness from the Heavenly Dao and appearing in the depths of the universe in a flash.
With over twenty million spirit stones, Ye Yun intended to convert all of them into his own attributes!
