Chapter 144: Sacred Water
Above the Flame Mountain Tribe.
In just a few minutes, Bai Ruo Xin completely mastered the use of the flying treasure.
She even included the pre-set direction that Yi Chen mentioned.
It was similar to autopilot technology.
She could set a direction and speed without worrying about it.
The flying treasure would continuously draw her spirit power as its energy, flying toward that direction.
Of course, compared to autopilot, this flying treasure had many flaws.
The biggest flaw was that it would not avoid obstacles.
As it moved straight ahead, any flying birds in its path would have to fend for themselves.
With the material of this flying treasure, even powerful flying fierce beasts would suffer severe injuries if they collided with it.
Another drawback was that the user had to estimate the time well.
If one wasn’t careful, they might just pass the destination by.
This flying treasure could not set time and distance.
Besides this, the flying treasure constantly required the user’s spirit power and could not absorb external spirit energy as a source of power.
These flaws were all due to the lack of suitable spirit mine materials.
Yi Chen could only make do for now and slowly improve it later.
Once Bai Ruo Xin fully mastered the flying treasure, without needing any instructions from Yi Chen, she directed the members of the Intelligence Organization to head to the Misty Forest.
Then she controlled the flying treasure to fly northward toward the Misty Forest.
Since she also needed to wait for the spirit consciousness tribe members from the other three armies and it was her first time operating it, Bai Ruo Xin did not set the flying treasure to its fastest speed.
With the direction set and a speed of over one hundred kilometers per hour, she sat at the door, feeling somewhat bored as she looked at the blue sky and white clouds.
She remained on guard for any powerful flying fierce beasts that might appear, ready to react in advance.
After just over an hour, the fog-covered Misty Forest came into view.
The entire Misty Forest was vast and boundless.
From high above, it looked like a huge mass of thick fog, mysterious and unfathomable, evoking a sense of both curiosity and fear.
At the edge of the Misty Forest, Zong Shan, who had received news in advance, had already gathered the Northern Army’s warriors and fierce beasts, waiting outside.
As they watched a stone house descend from the sky, controlled by Bai Ruo Xin, they were all astonished.
But soon, they all felt relieved.
If the clan leader, a reincarnated deity, could allow his tribe members to fly in the sky and had the power to summon winds and rain, then making a stone house fly would be a piece of cake.
It was just a normal occurrence, nothing to be overly surprised about!
Bai Ruo Xin controlled the stone house to land in a clearing. After greeting Zong Shan, she chose not to inform Yi Chen.
Clearly, they planned to wait for the spirit consciousness tribe members from the other three armies to arrive before making any decisions.
Inside the stone house, Yi Chen, who was meditating, already knew they had reached the Misty Forest through his divine consciousness.
He remained in a meditative state.
Bai Ruo Xin’s judgment was correct; he did not want to waste time and planned to wait until the spirit consciousness tribe members from the other three armies arrived before proceeding.
About three to four hours later, the furthest group, led by Rog, finally arrived with the Southern Army’s spirit consciousness tribe members.
Given their flying speed, it should not have taken them this long.
However, after receiving the notification from the Intelligence Organization members, the leaders of the three armies also needed time to gather their scattered teams and arrange all matters before officially setting out.
“Clan leader, everyone has arrived.”
Bai Ruo Xin announced from the doorway.
Yi Chen opened his eyes and ended his meditation.
He walked to the entrance.
Guli, Rog, Tai Shi, and Zong Shan, the four leaders, stood respectfully outside.
Further away were the spirit consciousness tribe members of the four armies.
A rough estimate showed there were about two hundred of them.
Behind them were the warriors of the Northern Army who had not yet reached the spirit consciousness stage, numbering around three hundred.
Finally, there was the group of fierce beasts under the Northern Army’s control.
This group was the largest, with over eight hundred individuals, each massive and more imposing in appearance.
Their strength was also not low.
The strongest among them required the combined efforts of three or four spirit consciousness talents to defeat.
Even the weaker ones were significantly stronger than ordinary warriors.
These fierce beasts were gradually subjugated and controlled using the Beast Taming Technique as the Northern Army expanded.
It had been nearly four months since the Beast Taming Technique was taught, and the results were remarkable.
Not only had it entirely eliminated the fierce beast threat for the four armies, but it also allowed them to control an increasing number of more powerful fierce beasts.
Overall strength was continuously rising.
This could be seen from the growth of Yi Chen’s influence within the Strongest Talent System.
Before the teaching of the Beast Taming Technique, the rate of growth in influence had stopped and even showed signs of decline.
It was thanks to the overall strength of the four armies improving, along with the constant supplementing of troops from the tribe, that there was no significant drop in situation.
Moreover, fierce beasts continuously breaking free from control in the range of influence led to their territories being excluded by the system.
In one month, the combined increase in the influence of the four armies only amounted to about 150,000 to 160,000 square kilometers.
In contrast, the newly added influence in the last month had reached 400,000 square kilometers, and it was still on the rise.
Now, Yi Chen’s influence had increased to over 3.8 million square kilometers, with an additional talent bonus reaching 3.8 times.
This means that his talent now approaches nearly five times the basic talent of the strongest in humanity.
The real constraints on the tribe’s expansion speed are still the two main issues of insufficient population and low average strength.
Although the Yanhuang Tribe’s current population has surpassed thirteen thousand, this number includes a large number of elderly and children.
Most tribe members have very ordinary talents.
The number of warriors in the four armies barely reaches one-tenth of the population.
The insufficient average strength means that, so far, each army only has a little over fifty spirit consciousness members.
Even if they wanted to subdue fierce beasts to make up for the population shortage, one spirit consciousness tribe member can only control about ten to twenty fierce beasts at most.
Controlling more poses significant risks and hidden dangers.
After all, the Beast Taming Technique is not yet perfected and still has many flaws.
“Zong Shan, where is that batch of holy water? Bring it here for me to see.”
Yi Chen’s gaze shifted to Zong Shan.
“Wait a moment, Clan Leader!”
Zong Shan quickly ordered someone to bring the holy water from the Northern Army that had been transferred from the Intelligence Organization.
Before long, a tribe member arrived carrying a large iron bucket.
When he opened the lid, it revealed clear spring water that emitted a strong spirit energy.
It weighed about thirty to forty pounds.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness began to seep into the holy water, studying its properties.
“Hmm?”
After a while, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
This trip to the Misty Forest was entirely aimed at its vast population.
What he did not expect was that this holy water was also an extremely precious treasure.
The most important and strongest property is its strengthening ability.
Directly consuming it would enhance physical fitness and vision, which would be a waste.
This holy water is about fourth-grade spiritual water, and it can enhance both the effect and quality when used for refining artifacts or future alchemy.
Not to mention, using this holy water to re-refine the three spiritual artifacts he had created would at least increase their grade by one level, significantly amplifying their power and effectiveness.
