Lin Ye smiled and said, "Huang Bao, I think your body is almost ready to go out and see the world. Come on, how about we go to my market?"
Princess Huang was somewhat tempted, but shook her head slightly: "The blood plague infection has been so severe lately..."
"I've prepared a spirit-suppressing formation for you!"
"But I feel... my body might not be able to hold on that long, I'm afraid I won't come back..."
"I'll definitely arrange accommodation for you."
Princess Huang nodded with a hint of anticipation in her eyes: "Brother Lin has been so kind in inviting me, I shouldn't refuse again... Brother Lin, can we set off now?"
"Aren't you going to tell your dad?" Lin Ye blinked.
"He definitely won't agree..." Princess Huang chuckled, "It's best to just ignore him..."
Lin Ye couldn't help but laugh and said, "Alright! Let's go!"
As he spoke, Lin Ye lifted Princess Huang up by the waist and prepared to escape from the Golden Crow Clan's territory.
Princess Huang was somewhat surprised and struggled, "Brother never said he would... take me out like this..."
"Didn't I carry you out like this back on Linglu? Don't worry, we'll keep our tracks hidden and take you to our lodgings first."
“...Alright then.” Princess Huang thought for a moment, then stopped kicking her fair legs and stayed quietly in Lin Ye’s arms like a little animal.
.......
Lin Ye carried Princess Huang back to the Demon Subduing Workshop and settled her in his home.
His market town is now taking shape.
It was named "Demon Subduing Workshop"!
Outsiders would certainly think that the meaning represents that the great demon was once defeated here.
However, what is not widely known is that it can also be interpreted in the opposite way, meaning that the great demon controlled by the curse lies in ambush underground, hence the name "Subduing Demons"...
Of course, in order to protect the secrets of the Strange Fire Cultivation Area and the Great Demon itself, the underground area is strictly protected.
"Greetings, Master!"
"Master Linfang."
Lin Ye went out to meet Alchemist Xiao. From afar, many cultivators greeted him and cast respectful glances at him.
As Lin Ye's territory, Fumofang attracts many people who are drawn by his potential.
The spiritual energy here is far stronger than in other parts of the Fourth Ring Road.
In addition, Lin Ye's status in the palace attracted many high-level cultivators. The magnificent market area continued to expand, and the commercial street and residential area were already bustling like a sect.
In fact, quite a few sects do want to move in here!
"I've met the sect master!"
"Ah."
"Master~"
"Good morning, Little Xuanling." Lin Ye greeted Little Xuanling as he passed by the Meteor Fire Sect's headquarters.
He brought the entire Meteor Fire faction over.
During their previous trip to Linglu, they brought back more than a dozen young geniuses from the Refiners' Guild, who became the first batch of students for the new Meteor Flame Sect.
The old members of the Meteorite Faction have been properly dealt with.
As expected, this sect is blessed with extraordinary fortune, and it is currently attracting outstanding weapon-refining talents to Lin Ye, including quite a few with both metal and fire attributes.
Xiao Xuanling now seems to have the air of a senior disciple, and is highly respected by the sect's disciples.
After all, she was Lin Ye's only personal disciple, and her talent in weapon crafting was also outstanding!
Unfortunately, the price of crafting materials has skyrocketed.
Only Lin Ye has a relatively abundant supply of materials.
"Master, I'm home now."
"Okay, let's go back." Lin Ye looked at Xiao Xuanling's protector: "Protect her well."
A masked female cultivator clasped her hands in a fist and said, "Yes."
This masked female cultivator was one of the high-level cultivators who came to seek refuge with Lin Ye.
Due to the stratification policy of the Lord of the Great Wilderness, starting from the late Foundation Establishment stage, one should not be able to stay in peripheral areas like the Fourth Ring Road for an extended period.
Lin Ye requested the young emperor to turn this area into a special zone, as it was necessary to adapt to local conditions.
Of course, in order to restrict the movements of high-level cultivators, the Demon Subduing Pavilion is not a place where one can come and go as one pleases.
Once a high-level cultivator arrives, they must stay for at least a period of time!
The palace's policies have had a positive effect on attracting long-term residents to Lin Ye.
After walking a few steps, they saw Alchemist Xiao in the square where they had agreed to meet. He was dressed in a purple robe, with striking eyebrows and sharp eyes. He looked even more imposing after breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.
Upon seeing Lin Ye, Alchemist Xiao greeted him with a smile, "Young Master Lin, it's been a long time!"
"As soon as I came out, I noticed that the price of pills has dropped quite a bit..."
Lin Ye nodded: "The blood disaster is too severe. I have already frozen many patients in the incubation period, waiting for a solution to emerge."
"Hiss... That's terrifying!"
"But the price of spirit artifacts has plummeted even further, now only worth 30% or 40% of what it used to be! It seems like nobody has any spirit stones left... Young Master Lin, how are your businesses doing?"
Lin Ye smiled and said, "It's alright."
In fact, due to the terrible contagiousness of the Blood Disaster, spirit mines in various places have stopped operating, and materials for refining weapons have become extremely expensive.
With the price of magical artifacts plummeting, all artifact refiners are having a tough time right now, and most have stopped working.
Moreover, almost only Lin Ye's factories and sects are still operating day and night, and no one knows where his weapons have gone!
The mining robots produced by Lin Ye's family naturally sold quite well under such circumstances.
But it was only so-so. Almost all the weapon refiners had moved their practice to the Void God Realm, and the price of spirit ore was gradually falling, making the entire market very depressed.
After arranging accommodations for Alchemist Xiao, Lin Ye returned home.
A tunnel runs through the small courtyard behind the mountain; this is the road to the factory area.
Behind the Lin residence is a fully automated factory, which is currently producing standardized magical artifacts.
Lin Ye arrived at the warehouse and inspected this batch of finished products.
These finished products are all weapons such as beam guns and chainsaw swords.
Logically speaking, cultivators from the four continents should be avoiding disaster and going into seclusion, and shouldn't be buying spiritual artifacts.
The time portal that Lin Ye chose to open is also a thousand years in the future. The technology should be more advanced then, so where will these magical artifacts find a market?
After taking inventory of the magical artifacts, Lin Ye's expression became exceptionally calm as he opened the panel.
[Blood of the Immortal Emperor: 100,1256/1,000,000]
[The Gate of Time: 11000 years from now]
Teleport!
Lin Ye thought to himself, and in the blink of an eye, he was in another place.
This is a spacious and bright villa. There are no lights; the light comes directly from the walls.
As the leaves moved outwards, the light source lit up in segments, following his every step.
On the wall, some screens were flashing, displaying detailed data, including the percentage increase in Lin Ye's spiritual energy and blood energy compared to the last test. The data was very detailed.
But upon opening the door, in front of the beautiful courtyard, lies a true steel forest.
Countless houses sit atop towering forests, with each branch intertwined with the others, and clouds stretching far below, creating a breathtakingly magnificent sight!
In the blink of an eye, it felt like entering a new world.
But Lin Ye knew that he was still in the imperial palace.
11000 years later, a new city emerged on the site of the former palace...
"Fellow Daoist Lin, has this month's goods arrived?" A message from my friend "Boss Ye" appeared on the smart screen at my door.
"How kind of you!"
"That's right! With the [Devouring World Giant] disrupting the spiritual vein environment, it's extremely rare to find a weapon refiner like you who can reliably provide spiritual artifacts."
A smile appeared on Lin Ye's face.
The new era is slightly different from what he imagined.
Chapter 166 Hehuan Sect: You're good at dual cultivation? In this world, power matters (4k)
"Lin Ye, I am truly tied up in the Star Sea Battlefield and cannot give you a definite answer... I will do my best! I can get there within a hundred years. Until then, please hold on!"
"...Senior Emperor Yan, keep it up!"
"You must...hold on..." A faint voice gradually faded away.
Lin Ye stretched and yawned in the courtyard, basking in the artificial sunlight, but felt a little uncomfortable.
Just as he had imagined, he actually made contact with Emperor Yan!
The bad news is, they haven't arrived yet...
It wasn't that he didn't want to come; before contacting Lin Ye through the strange fire of the same origin, Emperor Yan had no idea that the mortal realm had collided with the Great Universe.
The world is too big, and information is still somewhat limited.
The vast worlds, surrounded by these smaller worlds, are far apart and seem to maintain their own silence from the outside world.
The mortal realm is now facing a crisis, coveted by a terrifying creature known as the "World Devouring Giant."
Nine hundred years ago, many Mahayana cultivators in the mortal realm joined forces to fight and injured the Devouring World Giant God, who was in the Tribulation Transcending stage.
However, they failed to kill it, and now the giant's body embraces the mortal realm, absorbing spiritual energy and gradually awakening.
"How big the hell is that?"
"Could it actually be the appearance of a beautiful girl...?!" Lin Ye was very surprised by this.
Although the cultivators of this era predicted that even if the Devouring God awakened, its power would drop to the Mahayana stage.
Furthermore, during the brief period of weakness at the beginning of awakening, its defensive power is only equivalent to that of the early Mahayana stage!
However, the mortal realm, which has had its spiritual energy drained for hundreds of years, has already fallen into disrepair.
For hundreds of years since the Devouring World Giant God was severely injured, no cultivator has been born who could rival the Giant God.
Now, based on the giant's physical signs, it is believed that it will awaken within a century...
"It basically comes down to whether Emperor Yan arrives first or it wakes up first!"
.......
"But the cultivators of this era have not given up their resistance."
"The Colossus has extremely strong defenses while it is asleep, but it will be weak in the early stages of awakening. The day it awakens will be the day the Star Alliance starts its war. This information is public to all."
Lin Ye wasn't panicking at all.
He has the star of discipline!
The Devouring Titan's body is too large, exceeding the effective range limit of the Discipline Star, which means that Lin Ye cannot fight the Titan alone.
For example, even though Lin Ye grabbed the giant's foot, the giant's hand could still launch a full-force attack on others.
However, at least Lin Ye himself is safe.
Feeling uneasy, Lin Ye also designed a self-triggering system that would automatically activate Discipline Star upon detecting a high-intensity attack, thus ensuring absolute safety.
In this way, even if Lin Ye is hit hard by the suddenly awakened giant god, he can at least slip back to the Dark Ages!
"Moreover, before the giants awakened, this era was much safer than the Dark Ages."
"If no Mahayana cultivators are born, then no great calamity will occur... That's good enough."
Thinking of this, Lin Ye's brows and eyes relaxed.
