Two Worlds: The Demon Cultivator Mistakenly Enters the Lord's World

Chapter 106 Noble Tombs
Inside the Xuan Yin Temple.

After a fierce battle, the temple was left in ruins.

The three 2-star treants were seriously injured by Su Wangyu's Blood Flame Sword Qi, with most of their lush canopies bald and their condition deteriorating.

Fortunately, treants are plants with strong vitality and are skilled in healing magic. Rooted in the earth, watering them with the water from the Moon Well or the sweet dew will quickly heal the wounds on their canopies.

It will be able to recover its former strength in a week or two at most.

Aside from the treant's injuries, the Blood River Rakshasa that erupted also killed fifty or sixty skeleton wolf riders, and hundreds more undead creatures were killed or wounded.

When the Blood River Rakshasa, a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, unleashed her power, the damage was truly astonishing. With just a few moves, she inflicted heavy losses on Lu Feng.

"It's a pity that I don't have a single 2-star combat unit under my command. Otherwise, if I had attacked while the Treant was using its root-entanglement ability, I could have definitely taught Blood River Rakshasa a lesson!"

Lu Feng sighed inwardly.

The Blood River Rakshasa is too much of a threat. If she wasn't hurt this time, she will only bring greater losses to the Xuan Yin Temple if she comes back again.

Xuan Yin Temple urgently needs a Foundation Establishment cultivator or a 2-star unit skilled in combat.

After the battle, Lu Feng approached the Lord of Mist Mountain: "Fellow Daoist Lin, how long until you reach the Foundation Establishment stage?"

During the counterattack of the Blood River Rakshasa, Lin Yufei, the master of Mist Mountain, was also swept by a blood-flame sword aura. Two of his Cloud Mist Warriors were shattered, leaving him in a rather disheveled state.

Recalling the battle just now, Lin Yufei, the master of Wushan Mountain, still had some worries on his face.

Blood River Rakshasa was, after all, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and his attack on their doorstep posed a significant threat.

Only those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage can defeat those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

The exchange just now made the Lord of Mist Mountain deeply understand the gap between late-stage Qi Refining cultivators and Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult! Foundation Establishment is no easy task! I am already in the late stage of Qi Refining, and I have cultivated more than 170 acupoints. However, I still have a lot of acupoints to reach the number required for a mid-grade Dao Foundation!"

"The resources required for opening acupoints and refining meridians are considerable. After the meridian refining is completed, I still need to prepare a method for advancing to the Foundation Establishment stage! I am not confident that I can advance to the Foundation Establishment stage within the next ten years!"

Lin Yufei, the master of Wushan Mountain, shook his head with a worried expression.

Upon hearing this, Lu Feng also sighed.

Every stage on the path of cultivation is incredibly difficult. Foundation building is the most challenging stage, and every step of cultivation afterward is equally difficult.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, please feel free to use the Moon Well at Xuan Yin Temple. I also have some Yellow Sprout Pills here, so please use them as you please. Xuan Yin Temple is not stable enough with the Tree Man Dao Soldiers stationed there; it also needs its own Foundation Establishment cultivators!"

Lu Feng took out a gourd of Huangya Dan (a type of medicinal pill) and stuffed it into the arms of Lin Yufei, the master of Wushan Mountain, giving him instructions.

"Master, I understand your intentions! I will do my best!"

Holding the Huangya Dan, Lin Yufei didn't dare to make any promises to Lu Feng, and could only try his best.

After bidding farewell to Lin Yufei, Lu Feng also asked the cultivators in Xuan Yin Temple to find more wood-based cultivation techniques for the 2-star treants.

If they study it more, they might be able to learn powerful wood-based attack spells.

The 2-star Treant possesses the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment stage, but lacks corresponding protective methods, ultimately rendering it merely an empty shell.

He can easily bully low-level enemies, but when he encounters a genuine Foundation Establishment cultivator like Blood River Rakshasa, he can only be beaten mercilessly.

Lu Feng did have several magical artifacts with three restrictions, but fusing the three restrictions of these artifacts together to give them sentience was extremely difficult, no less so than creating a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

In the end, Lu Feng turned his attention to the corruption and malice of his subordinates.

The Corruption Abomination was recruited using the corpse of a 2-star dragon-transformed demon lizard through a necromancy.

Its level was already at the limit of 1-star gold, similar to the late stage of Qi Refining, just one step away from breaking through and advancing to 2-star.

"But how can I advance the level of Corruption Abomination? I don't have anything good on hand that can help me improve it!"

After much thought, Lu Feng decided that he should start by searching the Lord's World.

Plenty of bronze soul coins and high-quality, fresh corpses are needed to give the Corrupt Abomination a try.

Arriving in Blackrock Territory in the Lords world.

Hero Ironwall, leading his undead army, continues to diligently clear out the wandering monsters in his territory, occasionally leading his army to explore the edges of the land.

Over the past few days, as the undead army has swept through the area again and again, wandering monsters have stopped spawning in the territory near Blackrock Village.

This indicates that the land next to Blackstone Village has begun to become a safe place.

As Lu Feng expected, Ron, who managed Blackrock Village, soon reported to him the benefits of the area around Blackrock Village becoming a safe place.

"My lord, as the land near the village has become a safe haven, more than a dozen wild monster farmers have come to join Blackrock Village! Accompanying them is a blacksmith who says he can build a blacksmith shop. As long as you can provide the metal, my lord, he can forge weapons and equipment for you!"

"Oh, blacksmith! The blacksmith's shop is interesting! Take me to see it!"

With the Xuan Yin Temple as his backing, Lu Feng had a large quantity of various metals, enough to supply a blacksmith shop without any problem.

Lu Feng accompanied Ron to the village and met the blacksmith who lived in a brick house in the village.

The blacksmith was actually a dwarf who was 1.2 meters tall, with dark brown skin, a stubble beard, and bulging muscles.

"Greetings, my lord! The wine in your territory is absolutely delicious. As long as you can keep supplying me with wine, I, Bronzebeard Ironhammer, will keep crafting equipment for you!"

When the dwarf Bronzebeard Ironhammer saw Lu Feng arrive, he hugged the wine jar, beamed with joy, and patted his chest.

"Alright, as long as you can forge me elite equipment, I can supply you as much wine as you want!"

Lu Feng glanced at the top of the dwarf's head and saw the basic information about Bronzebeard and Iron Hammer.

【Dwarf Blacksmith (1-star basic)】

[Skills]: Fiery Battle Aura, Basic Forging, Thousand-Strike Hammer Technique
[Introduction]: A skilled blacksmith who will forge excellent equipment for your territory.

[Job Requirements]: Blacksmith Shop

Bronzebeard Ironhammer's abilities were immediately apparent, so Lu Feng immediately instructed Ron to arrange for farmers to bring resources and work with Bronzebeard Ironhammer to build a blacksmith shop.

A blacksmith shop is not a farm, and military buildings like guard towers are not difficult to construct.

After using some wood and stone to build the house and furnace, Lu Feng brought a set of blacksmithing tools, including a hammer and anvil, from the Xuan Yin Temple and put them in the blacksmith's shop, thus completing the construction.

[Blacksmith Shop]: A place for forging equipment. An ordinary building, without the special attributes of troop buildings.

The skill of forging equipment mainly relies on the blacksmiths who work in the blacksmith shops.

Copperbeard Iron Hammer carried the wine jar into the blacksmith shop. Looking at the brand-new tools in the blacksmith shop, he couldn't help but stroke them.

"Great stuff, great stuff, all new!"

Copperbeard Ironhammer was very satisfied with the items in the blacksmith's shop and also talked about his skills.

"With these things, I can forge basic weapons and equipment. Iron swords and iron armor are my specialties! If I have good materials, I might even have a chance to forge a 1-star treasure, but that chance is extremely rare. In my entire life, I've only forged one 1-star treasure in Ironforge, the dwarven homeland, and I haven't had the chance since."

The hammer's forging skills are truly impressive, capable of forging 1-star treasures.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Feng also showed Tie Chui some of the methods for refining Yin weapons from the Mountain God's Method.

"So this is how treasures can be made! By refining them with one restriction after another, gradually increasing their power, the difficulty of crafting treasures can be greatly reduced. It's ingenious, truly ingenious!"

Iron Hammer was astonished by what he saw and became completely absorbed in the techniques for crafting these magical artifacts. He even sought out Ron to learn cultivation methods in order to be able to craft various magical artifacts.

After inspecting the blacksmith shop, Lu Feng also walked through the new territory that Heroic Iron Wall had occupied in the past few days.

The buildings that appeared in the new territory were all very ordinary.

Examples include the Dark Cave, which produces Cavemen; the Big-Eared Camp, which produces Big-Eared Monsters; and the Wolf House, which produces Werewolves.

The units produced are all 0-star units. Even if they join Blackrock Territory, they are just ordinary laborers with limited use.

It is said that the Undead race has a building called the "Skeleton Conversion Field" that can convert cannon fodder units of other races into skeletons.

After thinking it over, Lu Feng realized that pushing these ordinary 0-star alien units into the pit might not be a bad idea.

This reduces food consumption and allows for the expansion of the undead army.

However, without the Skeleton Transformation Field, Lu Feng wouldn't necessarily kill all these zero-star cannon fodder from other races to summon their spirits.

The land near Blackrock Village has become a safe haven, and there is a great need for a large workforce to cultivate and plant crops, which is exactly what Ron's men are looking for.

Even these lowly cannon fodder can find a job to make a living.

Aside from these ordinary troop buildings, Heroic Iron Wall discovered a passage leading underground deep within Roland Forest.

The intricately carved stone gate and the steps leading underground resemble a tomb, filled with a strong aura of death, as if undead creatures roam within.

"For safety's sake, I sent some skeleton soldiers into the underground passage, but they all lost contact before long. It seems to be full of traps and powerful creatures guarding it!"

Tiebi truthfully reported the information about the tomb to Lu Feng. He had not yet fully explored it, but his intuition told him that there were good things in the tomb.

"It just so happens that I need to find some treasures of the undead race since I'm back, so I might as well take a look at what's in this tomb!"

Lu Feng also had the idea of ​​going on an adventure, as he needed some undead treasures to strengthen his Corruption and Abomination.

He summoned Gray from the Xuan Yin Temple and had her set off with her mountain god guards. The corrupt abominations and treants were all packed into the hidden weapon bag, ensuring their safety.

Led by the hero Iron Wall, Lu Feng and his group ventured deep into the Roland Forest, passing through what was once the territory of the lizardmen, and arrived at a hill that stood out prominently in the forest.

"Here, when the undead army passed through, a skeleton soldier happened to fall into a crevice in the rocks. When he was dug out, he saw the underground tomb passage!"

Following the directions of the hero Iron Wall, Lu Feng spotted a cave hidden beneath tree roots. This cave had been expanded into a sizable opening by the excavation of the undead army.

Through the cave entrance, one can see an exquisite stone gate inside, with intricate patterns carved on it, forming a huge coat of arms.

Grey looked at the carvings on the stone door: "This seems to be a tomb built by a nobleman. The carvings on the stone door are clearly a family crest representing noble status!"

"Broken, crossed old swords, a weeping gray wolf, a shadow that blots out the sun—what kind of nobleman would use such an ominous symbol?"

Grey's knowledge of noble families was limited, and the noble coat of arms in front of her was clearly not from a noble family she was familiar with.

"Never mind that, let's explore together first. Let's dig up this tomb and see whose unlucky soul it is!"

Lu Feng was completely ignorant of the knowledge of the nobles in the Lord's World, but that did not stop him from boldly exploring the tomb and searching for treasures.

The undead army of Iron Wall surged into the tomb like a tide. Surrounded by a group of skeletal wolf riders, Lu Feng led Gray behind them into the tomb's passage.

After passing through the stone gate, the passageway inside the tomb is very wide, enough for four horses to pass through, and the ceiling is also very high, at least as high as three stories.

The tomb is adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, and the dome is carved with all sorts of stone sculptures. From these alone, one can tell that the tomb's owner was a wealthy person.

Along the way, one can see the broken bones of undead creatures everywhere, as well as tomb traps that lead to mutual destruction.

Faced with the sheer number of undead, the tomb's mechanisms were clearly of little use.

As they walked along the passage, Lu Feng felt that they were going underground. After walking for about ten minutes, they came to a large hall of several hundred square meters.

Inside the hall, the hero Ironwall was commanding his undead army in a battle against a group of seventy or eighty gray monsters with wings, human-like bodies, and sharp fangs.

【Gargoyle in the Tomb (1-star vanilla)】

"They are gargoyles. These are the most common creatures in tombs. Normally, they turn into stone statues and stand motionless guarding the tomb. But as soon as an enemy appears, they will break free of their petrification and attack!"

"They have magic-resistant skin that can resist ordinary magical attacks, and with their wings and high speed, they can easily toy with and attack their enemies!"

Grey recognized the monsters at a glance and told Lu Feng about the gargoyles' abilities.

Inside the hall, the gargoyles, taking advantage of their wings and using the tall stone pillars, continuously swooped down on the undead army commanded by the Iron Wall.

Each time it swooped down, it accurately killed some skeletons.

However, the attacks from the skeleton archers and skeleton mages in the Iron Wall army did little damage to the gargoyles.

Bone arrows couldn't break through the gargoyle's defenses, and the Netherfire Bullets were largely ineffective against the gargoyle's magic-resistant skin.

However, the hero Ironwall quickly came up with a solution to the gargoyles. He sent skeleton soldiers to climb onto the stone pillars and dome of the hall, occupying the platform where the gargoyles were resting.

Surrounded by the gargoyle, the skeleton captains quickly crawled all over its body, relentlessly attacking its wings.

Soon, the gargoyles, unable to fly, fell helplessly into the undead army, where they were quickly mortally wounded and killed by the relentless attacks.

It turned into a pile of stones, shattering into pieces on the ground.
