Lord of All: I Created the Eternal Immortal Realm

Ye Yu sat on the black iron bed, his fair and slender fingers gently tapping the bed board as he pondered silently.

"Upgrading to a Tier 1 territory only requires one condition: having enough Star Crystals."

"However, in order to upgrade to a Tier 2 territory, in addition to star crystals, there is another condition: the territory must have at least 100 residents."

"My territory is currently at Tier 2, and there are a total of 12 people, including myself, Starhound Silver, and Xia Dou, who is a special resident."

"In other words, I need to recruit 88 more residents to meet one of the conditions for upgrading to a Tier 2 territory."

"Although I now have a spiritual field and have planted grains, the grains need time to grow."

"Under the rules of the Endless Star Sea, ordinary crops ripen once every 30 days."

"So even though the spirit field can triple the growth rate of plants, the grains I plant in the spirit field still need 10 days to mature."

"If I want to shorten the ripening time, I will have the residents irrigate it with spiritual liquid, upgrade the level of the spiritual field, or continue to improve its quality."

"I'll continue recruiting residents after we solve the food shortage problem."

With this in mind, Ye Yu decided to temporarily refrain from recruiting residents.

Besides, when recruiting residents, he not only had to solve their food problem, but also their accommodation problem.

If he allows his people to "use the sky as their roof and the earth as their bed," their loyalty will decline.

Of course, this excludes residents who are absolutely loyal.

Because once you reach the level of absolute loyalty, your loyalty will never decrease.

……

A dozen minutes later, Ye Yu suddenly received a private message from Wang Sichong.

Wang Sichong: "Brother Ye, I have received 1000 mineral water bottles and have already listed them in the trading hall."

Ye Yu: "Thanks, I'll go buy it right now."

Wang Sichong: "Brother, you're too kind. It was just a small favor. Do you want me to continue helping you collect them?"

Ye Yu: "The more the better!"

Wang Sichong: "Okay!"

Ye Yu immediately entered the [Trading Hall].

[Mineral water bottles x1000]: Priced at 500 stones. (Seller: Wang Sichong)

Seeing that Wang Sichong was only selling 500 stones, Ye Yu didn't say anything and bought it directly.

He had already given the other party 1000 units of stone as cost, and now the 500 units of stone are his payment.

[Ding! Purchase successful. You lost 500 Stones but gained 1000 Mineral Water. The items have been sent to your inventory!]

Ye Yu scanned the trading hall and found that quite a few people were selling things.

There were vendors selling water, stones, timber, and all sorts of daily necessities...

Seeing that he didn't find the items he needed, he left the trading hall and walked out.

......

A moment later.

Ye Yu arrived at the pool containing nearly a ton of spiritual liquid.

Then, with a wave of his right hand, a mountain of mineral water bottles appeared out of thin air on the bluestone ground beside him.

Then, he unscrewed the cap off the mineral water bottle.

About ten minutes later, he had unscrewed the caps off all 1000 mineral water bottles and stood them upright on the bluestone ground.

Ye Yu stood up, stretched, and loosened his limbs, muttering to himself, "From now on, I'll leave these trivial matters to my subordinates. I'm the lord; if I have to do everything myself, what's the point of recruiting subordinates?"

Shaking off the distracting thoughts, Ye Yu moved his mind, and about a hundred catties of spiritual liquid flew out of the pool in front of him.

Under his control, the spiritual liquid was divided into 1000 equal portions, which flew into 1000 mineral water bottles around him.

Ye Yu filled each bottle of mineral water with about one or two ounces of spiritual liquid.

He didn't have a scale, he only estimated the weight by eye, so the weight might not be accurate.

It is worth mentioning that the liquid and water have the same volume and density, which means they weigh the same.

Each mineral water bottle can hold one pound of water, and once he fills the mineral water bottle, it will be one pound of spiritual liquid.

However, he did not fill the mineral water bottle with the spiritual liquid.

Because if he fills the container to the brim and sells it cheaply, he will lose money; if he sells it expensively, very few people can afford to sell it to him!

He would naturally not do a business that loses money.

Therefore, he only filled each mineral water bottle with about one or two ounces.

He planned to price this batch of spiritual liquid at 10 star crystals per bottle, since he had previously sold it to Jiang Qinglan for 100 star crystals per pound.

He originally planned to give the "leeks" a few days to grow, and then harvest them after they had grown fat.

However, plans can't keep up with changes.

If we don't sell them spiritual liquid now to boost their strength, some of them might perish tomorrow.

Therefore, in order to prevent his "leeks" from falling into ruin, he had to start harvesting them in advance.

Ye Yu first listed 1000 mineral water bottles containing spiritual liquid for sale in the trading hall, and then entered the [Regional Channel].

As soon as I entered the regional channel, I saw that there were quite a few people chatting on it.

Ye Xiao: "Uncles, aunts, brothers, and sisters, although none of us have perished today, if we don't cultivate our techniques to improve our strength, sooner or later some of us will fall, because the monsters will only get stronger!"

Yang Chengwu: "Brother Ye is right! Although we all possess top-grade mortal artifacts sold by Ye Shen, if the monster's strength exceeds the attribute bonuses of these artifacts, we definitely won't be a match for them. Besides, external objects are ultimately just external objects; without our own strength, even if everyone has a top-grade spiritual artifact, it's useless!"

Tang Tiantian: "It would be great if we could get a cultivation technique. I estimate that in our area, only Ye Shen has a cultivation technique, since he can upgrade the level of the treasure chest."

Tian Wen: "Jimei, you're Night God's friend, could you ask him for us if he'd be willing to sell us a cultivation technique?"

Chang Wei: "Sweetie, could you please ask for us?"

Wang Teng: "+1".

...

Tang Tiantian: "I advise you to stick to this idea, because even if the Night God were willing to sell us the cultivation technique, we still couldn't afford it!"

"If you ask me, instead of asking the Night God to sell us cultivation techniques, we should ask him to sell us some spiritual liquid. Spiritual liquid can enhance physical fitness. I bought some spiritual liquid from the Night God yesterday, and after consuming less than half a pound, my physical fitness increased by a full 8 points."

Ye Yu, who had been secretly watching the screen, saw Tang Tiantian's message and immediately sent a message: "Everyone, I've put a batch of spirit liquid on the market in the trading hall. Anyone who wants to buy spirit liquid to improve their strength should hurry up and grab it!"

Tang Tiantian: "Hehe, speak of the devil and he appears! Thanks, Night God, I'm going to grab some now!"

Upon seeing Ye Yu's message, everyone rushed into the trading hall to make a purchase.

Everyone wants a elixir that can improve physical fitness.

In less than a minute, all the elixir was sold out.

Ye Yu also received a series of notifications from Xing Ling.

The 1000 portions of spirit liquid gave Ye Yu a total of 10000 star crystals, and his current number of star crystals is about to break through the 9 mark.

Ye Yu estimated that after killing all the monsters tomorrow, he would be able to collect enough star crystals to upgrade the lord's mansion.

The reason he has so many star crystals is that he uses meteorite iron to refine source points, and then uses source points to create golden treasure chests. Each golden treasure chest can yield 1000 star crystals.

He just opened 19 golden treasure chests and obtained a total of 19000 star crystals.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had that many star crystals at all.

Seeing that more than 2000 people were sending messages in the [Regional Channel] asking him to sell more spirit liquid, Ye Yu sent a message directly.

Ye Yu: "Everyone, I don't have any extra containers to hold the spirit liquid. If you want me to sell more spirit liquid, sell your mineral water bottles to Brother Wang Sichong. He's collecting mineral water bottles for me!"

The leeks are begging him to harvest them; if he doesn't, wouldn't that be against all reason?

After sending this message, Ye Yu immediately exited the [Regional Channel].

He didn't let anyone else hang their mineral water bottles in the trading hall; he went to the trading hall himself to buy them.

Because everyone else is selling mineral water bottles, he would have to buy 2999 of them, which is too much trouble for him.

Wang Sichong helped him acquire it and eventually handed it over to him; he only needed to buy it once.

"Awoo, Lord Brother, I'm here again!"

As soon as he exited the [Regional Channel], he heard Xia Dou's familiar howling voice.

Ye Yu turned his head to look in the direction of [Wanjie Recruitment Camp], and immediately saw Xia Dou carrying a large basket on her back, running towards him.

Upon seeing this, Ye Yu stepped forward to meet him.

Xia Dou approached Ye Yu, first putting down the basket on her back, then looking up at him and smiling as she said:

"Lord, our boss said she agrees to make a deal with you."

"I brought you an electronic scale and three sets of clothes this time."

At this point, Xia Dou reached into the basket beside her and took out a fist-sized blue stone, handing it to Ye Yu, and continued:

"Lord, this blue crystal is called 'Spirit Essence Crystal.' It's an energy crystal formed after the 'Spirit Breath Seed' inside a King-level Devouring Beast shattered upon its death."

"Those with 'Source Essence' potential awakened in our area can absorb the energy from 'Spirit Marrow Crystals' to cultivate."

"We currently lack Spirit Seeds and Mana Flowers. The boss asked me to inquire with you whether Spirit Essence Crystals would be of any help to you?"

"If we have it, can we use it as currency to buy the elixir from you?"

Ye Yu reached out and took the spirit crystal from Xia Dou, immediately using his lord privileges to digitize it and read its panel.

Soul Crystal

[Level]: Tier 3.

[Quality]: Excellent.

[Introduction]: Soul Crystals contain pure soul power. After refining them, they can enhance the [Spirit] attribute.

……

Ye Yu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that the 'Spirit Essence Crystal' in the Spirit Cage world was actually a soul crystal.

Then, as if he had thought of something, Ye Yu suddenly felt relieved.

As far as he knew, the Devouring Beasts in the Ling Cage world could absorb the "life essence" from human bodies. Once a human's "life essence" was drained by the Devouring Beasts, they would die, and their physical body would turn into a "flesh and earth" statue!

If he is not mistaken, the so-called "life essence" should be soul energy.

The "source potential awakener" that Xia Dou mentioned should be someone whose soul potential has been awakened.

The Eternal Dao Scripture, which was passed down to him by the Eternal Furnace, mentions that the human soul is divided into three souls and seven spirits.

The three souls are: Tai Guang (heavenly soul), Shuang Ling (earthly soul), and You Jing (human soul).

The seven souls are: Corpse Dog Soul, Hidden Arrow Soul, Sparrow Yin Soul, Devouring Thief Soul, Non-Poison Soul, Purifying Soul, and Stinky Lung Soul.

Each of the three souls and seven spirits possesses different abilities.

Take Bai Yuekui's team member Xu Tong for example. As far as he knows, Xu Tong's feces can detoxify.

In his view, Xu Tong should have awakened the "Thief-Swallowing Soul" among the seven souls, because the Thief-Swallowing Soul is responsible for immunity and detoxification, and defends against the invasion of external evils.

Xia Dou awakened the "pineal gland," possessing the talent for mental control, and the pineal gland is the "Tai Guang" among the three souls.

The Spirit Seed within the Devouring Beast's body can store "Life Source Essence," which is soul energy.

The "spirit essence crystal" that Xia Dou mentioned was an energy crystal formed from the broken spirit seed inside the king-level Devouring Beast that was blown up by Bai Yuekui and his men.

Therefore, he was not surprised that the Spirit Essence Crystal was a crystallization of the soul.
