Three Kingdoms Mythology World.

A burning light shone in everyone's eyes. The harvest from the ancient treasure trove flowed like a warm current into the hearts of every core member of the Great Wilderness Territory. The solemnity that had previously lingered due to the pressure of war was now completely replaced by confidence and hope.

Lin Mu felt quite gratified as he looked at the excitement in everyone's eyes and the confidence on their faces.

With a major battle imminent, the resources of the ancient national treasury and the Great Wilderness territory are enough to provide them with a solid backing.

Lin Mu's appetite soared as he looked at the fragrant and cooked [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice] on the table.

The cooked [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice] was still about the size of a thumb, with no change in size or color, which was very strange.

Lin Mu gently squeezed it, but it didn't burst with juice. The texture was like a bouncy candy: "It should be able to be further processed and compressed for easier storage and transportation."

He got a general idea of ​​the situation after just one try.

Lin Mu scooped up five grains of [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice] and put them in his mouth. A rich aroma burst forth, filling his entire mouth.

Afterwards, the [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice] immediately transformed into a warm, viscous liquid, slowly flowing into his throat... Then, the strange fragrance became even stronger, and his slightly tired spirit instantly returned to its peak.

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have consumed [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice], increasing your original free attribute points by 1."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have consumed [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice], increasing your original free attribute points by 1."

"..."

Five system prompts appeared in succession.

However, that's not all. After eating five [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice], Lin Mu actually felt full!
He knew he could continue eating [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice], but the feeling of fullness in his body seemed to be guiding him to stop eating for the time being, so as not to waste it.

Lin Mu paused, then scooped up five more grains of [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice] to eat. This time, surprisingly, no system notification appeared.

In other words, each person does not eat an unlimited amount each day or at each meal.

Lin Mu immediately looked up and around, noticing that everyone was tasting the [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice]. They had also discovered its limitations.

After that, no one ate any more of the [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice]; they all quietly put it away. Although it was delicious, it shouldn't be eaten alone; they would share it with the soldiers later.

Lin Mu didn't continue eating and wasted food; he also put away the [Nine Yang Dragon Tooth Rice] on the table in front of him.

After the meal, the group continued their meeting without taking a break.

Lin Mu then slowly spoke again, "The gains from the ancient treasure vault are far more than this."

With a wave of his hand, sixteen spirit-sealing divination boxes appeared on the table.

He opened two of the eighteen Sealed Spirit Divination Boxes. One contained the [Forging Blueprints for the Chengtian Sword], and the other contained the [Crafting Guide for Sealed Spirit Divination Boxes].

He didn't open the next sixteen.

This time, he's going to open it in front of everyone. After all, this isn't Nuwa's Treasure Chest; the contents are always fixed.

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Spirit Sealing Heavenly Divination Box and obtained the [Spirit Gathering and Qi Guiding Talisman Crafting Guide]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Heavenly Divination Box and obtained the [Spirit Light Shield Body Talisman Crafting Guide]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Stamina Rain Talisman Crafting Guide]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Mental Comfort Talisman Crafting Guide]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Heavenly Divination Box and obtained the [Light and Agile Marching Talisman Crafting Guide]."

They opened five in a row, and the items inside turned out to be some of the crafting diagrams for the talismans they had previously acquired!

Five illustrations in a row filled Lin Mu with ecstatic joy.

He knew the box was mostly filled with blueprints and illustrations. And illustrations were what he wanted most; in a way, a blueprint was like owning a local specialty!
Of course, if the blueprints are of a higher level, that's acceptable too.

"These five talisman-making illustrations are quite good!!" Chang Yin carefully put them away, and would later arrange for people to learn them.

Lin Mu handed the box to Chang Yin and nodded. He was pleasantly surprised to find the crafting manual for the Spirit Gathering and Qi-Inducing Talisman that he had been wanting.

Then, he opened the sixth Sealed Spirit Divination Box.

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained four [Crafting Blueprints for the Sword of Destiny]."

This box is special; it contains an unusual number of illustrations—four in total.

Lin Mu picked it up and looked at it, raising an eyebrow: "So the Restoration Sword made by the late Emperor Liu Hong was actually made using this."

Because of the restrictions of the Heavenly Contract, Pu Yuan did not reveal the origin of the Sword of Restoration. He did not disclose any information about its materials, blueprints, or other details.

However, the illustrations he found this time allowed him to guess the specifics.

These four [Crafting Guides for Swords of Destiny] require a divine-level blacksmith to forge the swords step by step according to the blueprints. They are peculiar; unlike other guides, they do not specify the exact materials required. Instead, they randomly forge the swords of destiny based on the dynasty's fortune and the materials collected.

Each illustration can be viewed once, and a sword of destiny will be forged from it. The sword's name is determined by the amount of luck it brings. After viewing, the guidance on the illustration will disappear, and the illustration will only reappear after all the forged swords of destiny have been destroyed.

In other words, it's a one-time illustration.

"My lord, this sword was forged after the establishment of the Yun Dynasty. It can be used as the Imperial Sword, symbolizing imperial power!" Chang Yin said with a beaming smile after receiving the sword from Lin Mu.

The others nodded in agreement. From now on, this sword will have to be fought for… If we win it back, we can place it in the legion to ward off evil, or, if there's no other use, keep it as a family heirloom to protect the clan's fortune!

This is the best treasure to bring good fortune to the clan!
"My lord, how many more Sealed Spirit Divination Boxes are there?" Chang Yin asked, rubbing his hands together eagerly.

“Ten more!” Lin Mu said solemnly.

Everyone else was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Ten boxes, that's basically ten illustrated guides... Awesome!!

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Heavenly Divination Box and obtained the [Crimson Origin Heavenly Profound Shield Crafting Guide]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Illustration of the Imperial Seal Crafting Manual]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Illustration of the Imperial Seal Crafting Manual]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Heavenly Divination Box and obtained the [Resource Secret Vault Beacon Bag Crafting Guide]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Resource Vault Building Construction Blueprint]."

He opened five more boxes, but the illustrations inside were unremarkable. Lin Mu had anticipated these items; the Great Han Dynasty had used them before.

However, the Crimson Primordial Heavenly Profound Shield is an unexpected find, as it is actually used to create Earth-rank shields!
Currently, the Great Wilderness Territory only has a few Xuan-tier shield crafting blueprints. This shield can strengthen the Great Wilderness Territory's defensive foundation and is quite valuable.

Lin Mu handed over the illustrated guide to Chang Yin.

As soon as he took them, he smiled broadly. Judging from his experience, these items were the family assets he had accumulated for the later founding of the nation!
There are five more left. Could the illustration he's been hoping for be among them?!
"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Teleportation Array Crafting Guide]."

What this box contained was a crafting blueprint for teleportation arrays. This item was practically useless to the Great Wilderness Territory.

However, for other players or warlords who don't possess this item, it's a treasure. After all, it's one of the necessary conditions for upgrading a county!

Lin Mu handed it to Chang Yin, who took a look and noticed something amiss: "My lord, this teleportation array can only be used between cities at the county level or above, which has many limitations. However, it requires less material to build than the Divine Decree Distance-Free Teleportation Array, and its rank is also much lower."

"Oh..." Lin Mu simply responded with an "oh."

Once the subordinate territories of the Great Wilderness Territory are established, even villages will set up teleportation arrays. Upgrading to the county level, the teleportation arrays built may run out of durability, so will they still be needed?

Lin Mu opened the remaining four boxes in one go:
"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained three [Shennong Jade Talismans]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Shennong Blessed Land Upgrade Blueprint]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Heavenly Divination Box and obtained the [Frosty Moon Dagger Forging Blueprint]."

"--bite!"

"--System notification: Dragon Lord Lin Mu, you have opened a Sealed Spirit Divination Box and obtained the [Buddha-Suppressing Pagoda Crafting Guide]."

Opening the four boxes revealed contents that offered Lin Mu a sense of psychological comfort.

Lin Mu picked up the [Frost Moon Dagger Forging Guide] and examined it. Sure enough, it was the forging guide for the Heaven-rank weapon, the Frost Moon Dagger. Finally, a forging guide for a high-rank weapon has appeared again!

Unfortunately, there are still no blueprints for forging armor and other items...

“This item is perfect for the Night Shadow Legion!” Chang Yin judged.

If every Nightshade soldier were equipped with this weapon, that would be terrifying!

"【Shennong Jade Talisman】, wow!!! It's actually an item for advancing to the Divine Master level?!" Lin Mu gasped as he checked the talisman's attributes.

Seeing this, the others all came over to check.

"It can directly advance a Heavenly-rank Spirit Plant Cultivator to a Divine-rank Spirit Plant Cultivator... This thing is priceless!!" Chang Yin immediately realized its value.

"Great! We now have three Divine-level Spirit Plant Masters!" Huang Zhong and the others were overjoyed.

"With such a foundation, why doesn't the Han Dynasty use it? If there were three Shennongs in charge, even a mere Sili could support a lot of people..." Feng Zhong asked doubtfully.

Guo Jia shook his head upon hearing this: "The late emperor and others dared not use it and could not use it... Otherwise, the beneficiaries would not be the common people of the world... but those parasites!"

Upon hearing Guo Jia's words, Feng Zhong sighed softly, "Indeed... If we can't use or dare not use good things... what's the point of this dynasty?"

If the Great Wilderness Territory obtains such a treasure, it will absolutely use it immediately without any hesitation. There is no need to even bother to investigate the family background and character of the chosen spirit plant growers...

That's the difference, the fundamental difference!
"【Illustrations for Making Buddha Pagodas】... Hmm, how come Liu Hong, who is so enthusiastic about Buddhism and Taoism, would collect this illustration?" Lin Mu exclaimed softly.

This pagoda, used to suppress Buddhism and Taoism, is actually a masterpiece of architecture.

As long as there is a pagoda to suppress Buddhism within the territory, the power of Buddhism and Taoism can be greatly suppressed.

It seems that Liu Hong secretly harbors some reservations about Buddhism and Taoism.

However, this benefits the Great Wilderness Territory.

Because the Great Wilderness Territory and the Buddhist Path have many ties!
"This is great stuff! We'll have more and more things to deal with Shinto in the future!" Chang Yin said with delight as he took the illustrated guide.

"The last one... [Shennong Blessed Land Upgrade Blueprint]... Good heavens, it can actually forcibly upgrade a high-level spiritual land to a blessed land!!" Lin Mu exclaimed in surprise after seeing its attributes.

Generally speaking, unless there are special circumstances, the highest level of territory is a high-level spiritual land.

Blessed lands, small grotto-heavens, and large grotto-heavens are generally formed naturally and are limited in number.

Now, a blueprint has appeared that can forcibly upgrade a high-level spiritual land, which is a tremendous asset for the Great Wilderness Territory.

“A blessed land… let me take a look.” Feng Zhong curiously took it and immediately checked its attributes.

"My lord, it's not the Qian Yuan Hidden Army Cave... This blessed land is only for farming..." Feng Zhong said with a hint of regret.

What he wanted was a blessed land related to military affairs. And the benefits of this blessed land would be related to spiritual plants.

"There are still many blueprints for unusual buildings missing... It seems they were stolen..." Xun You said regretfully.

"We don't have the artifact for resurrection... What a pity..." Guo Jia said regretfully.

With the development of the Great Wilderness Territory, the current number of resurrection buildings is no longer sufficient.

"It's not bad, but it's always missing something..." Lin Mu sighed softly.

"It's alright, there are still many divine-grade and heavenly-grade Nuwa treasure chests and quite a few high-grade treasure bags in the territory...maybe we can get what we need from them!" Lin Mu comforted everyone.

After opening the box, Lin Mu took out a blueprint: [Sky-Covering Prison Formation Blueprint (Disposable)].

"Is this blueprint intended for use in Luoyang, the capital? When will it be used?" Lin Mu asked in a low voice.

Guo Jia took the blueprints and said softly, "Once you've assigned the relevant civilians and craftsmen to the area, you can use it. After a while, those guys will definitely send in assassins to gather information again, no matter what."

“We have already established an affiliated territory outside Luoyang, the capital of the capital, and have built a teleportation array. The relevant craftsmen are also ready,” Chang Yin said in a deep voice.

"I just don't know the current situation in Luoyang, the capital, whether there are enough craftsmen..."

"My lord, my lord!" Just then, Cui Wu walked in again.

"We've gathered all the basic information about Luoyang, the capital city," Cui Wu announced loudly.

Just in time, Cui Wu appeared.

Lin Mu took the intelligence report and read it aloud: "All the buildings in the palace have been reduced to ruins. Thirty percent of the civilian residences in the city have been destroyed, eighty percent of the manor-level residences have been destroyed, eighty percent of the shops have been destroyed, ninety percent of the streets have been destroyed... and all special buildings have been destroyed..."

Hearing Lin Mu's words, a gloomy feeling settled over everyone. How was this any different from starting from scratch...?

This calamity in the capital city is truly terrifying!!

The losses are simply incalculable!
Looking at the glaring data in the intelligence report, Lin Mu sighed softly, "It will take a lot, a lot, a lot of resources to restore things to their original state..."

However, Lin Mu was slightly puzzled. The disaster in the capital was so severe, so why didn't the system deduct the national strength of the China region?
The group then discussed the matter of the capital city for a while...

Next, we will summarize the plan to unite the heroes to attack Dong Zhuo.

The first to report was Zhou Tai, who stood up and said, "My lord, the Yellow River pursuit plan was a complete success, exceeding the expected target by more than double!"

"A total of 13,000 low-level ships, 38,350 yellow-level ships, 53,272 black-level ships, and 3,851 earth-level ships were captured. No heaven-level warships were found."

"A total of 108,473 ships of various classes. As for the transported supplies, the captured ships and supplies are basically still there."

"Some supplies were salvaged from ships that were about to sink or were damaged and sinking during the looting." (End of Chapter)
