Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 1168 - 919: Speeding Up the Immortal Shuttle! (Part

Yun Shu was greatly shaken after patiently listening to the leader.

When she returned to the Immortal Shuttle and recounted the other party’s words, she was quite moved, "With such an enlightened and sensible leader, I think their tribe is bound to thrive. In contrast, those greedy individuals really shouldn’t be saved!"

"I didn’t expect to see so much of life’s diversity on these drifting fragnts in the void." Tang Qin gently sighed.

All these years, she had only encountered and rescued Hu Zhile and her sister, and had thought that all drifting refugees were like them, willing to toil just for the hope an altruist might extend a hand and take them away from the terrifying void.

Who could have guessed that there were people reluctant to leave? One might say that lack of awareness only brought disaster upon themselves.

"That’s how the world is." Jiang Yuanxin thought as he opened the Riverfront Village ga instance, scanning through the "people’s logs," where brief words described the daily lives of living, breathing common people residing there.

They constructed houses to improve their lives, cultivated farmland, gathered herbs, mined ore, wove fabric and sewed clothes; they traded goods, celebrated festivals with singing and dancing, pursued love, had children, and extended their family lines...

Although the refugees who first entered the Riverfront Village instance from the void were identified and selected as good-hearted by the system, one can imagine that with generations changing, in the future there would inevitably be conflicts, disputes, or even technological advancent and wars.

Jiang Yuan was uncertain about the future of the ga instance that fused increasingly more world fragnts. Would it really beco a small world always under his "supervision"?

Would he be able to manage it?

Letting his thoughts wander, an idea suddenly dawned upon him—he definitely couldn’t manage everything, which is why so many Immortals were appointed!

Every small world has Four Symbols Divine Beast guardians, as well as Mountain Gods, River Gods, Land Gods, and gods and immortals whom mortals believe in and worship; to put it simply, they are all regional administrators!

Moreover, the Celestial Realm has its respective gods and immortals who manage regions, with the assistance of the Mirror of Ten Thousand Generations, allowing the Celestial Emperor to remain firmly seated on high.

Having gained 200 points of divinity through tasks, Jiang Yuan wasn’t sure how much was needed to ascend the Four Symbols Divine Beast, but sohow he felt the system might have given him extra, and perhaps he could indeed use it to confer godhood soday!

Thinking of this, he looked forward even more to successfully creating a world by fusing more fragnts.

"Unfortunately, the Immortal Shuttle is still too slow, with so many coordinates left..." Jiang Yuan muttered as he gazed at the densely packed markers on the Void Detector, wishing for an omnipotent Teleportation Gate to directly reach and collect all the coordinates requesting help.

Hesitating, Tang Qin said, "Actually, we can increase speed, but doing so would rely entirely on consuming Immortal Jade, and it would be a substantial expense."

"How much would it consu?" He perked up imdiately.

At the current speed of traversing the void, it’s a huge setback.

Flying slowly from one coordinate to the next for fusion would take at least two to three months. Adding delays at the Lantian Domain ruins mid-journey and the Jasper Pool Immortal Realm at the end could an returning only by next spring!

"At the present speed, I need to exert so force, with the rest supplented by Immortal Jade, consuming one piece of Immortal Jade a day." Tang Qin chuckled softly, "If relying solely on Immortal Jade consumption, it would take three pieces a day.

I’ve been managing at Yin Mountain for years, ultimately without many ways to earn much Immortal Jade, and with frequent consumption everywhere, there’s really not much spare Immortal Jade to fuel the Immortal Shuttle, so I haven’t tried the fastest speed."

Three pieces a day?

Jiang Yuan glanced at his account balance — six thousand pieces of Immortal Jade — plenty to burn, so he imdiately pulled out thirty pieces and handed them over, saying, "Miss Tang, feel free to test it. If the speed improves significantly, just let the Immortal Shuttle consu them. If it’s not enough, I still have more."

Taking the Immortal Jade, Tang Qin nodded in agreent.

In her heart, she thought Mr. Jiang indeed was wealthy! Immortal Jade isn’t just Spirit Stone; being able to earn money isn’t enough on its own, having such a large reserve of Immortal Jade, could it be he indeed has an Immortal Jade Mine?

She rembered the discussions among the Little Ghost Cultivators when mining Lotus Peak and felt slightly regretful that there was an Immortal Jade Mine right at the entrance to her Yin Mountain, and she hadn’t noticed all these years — what a pity!

Afterwards, she sighed inwardly about her own limited blessings, otherwise she would have already sensed it and claid Lotus Peak for herself, having her subordinates mine it day and night.

With such idle musings in mind, Tang Qin added sufficient Immortal Jade, lifted the restriction, and let the Immortal Shuttle autonomously accelerate at full speed.

[Forward speed significantly increased, estimated ti to destination: 3 hours]

The system tily popped up a reminder, which Jiang Yuan saw as quite a bargain!

Previously they estimated it would take 19 hours to arrive, but now it only takes 3 hours. The consumption of three tis the Immortal Jade resulted in more than three tis the speed increase, so why say more? Spend the money and speed up the Immortal Shuttle!

"This doesn’t feel much different, the void is indeed so vast." Ling Di lay in various positions, gossiping quietly with Yun Shu.

The latter, who had flown through the void on tours, readily agreed, "Though it feels no different, on closer inspection it’s indeed faster — previously, when encountering the occasional floating stone, we could see it clearly; now they flash past like shooting stars, so even completely unseen.

At this speed, Miss Tang might be quite tired since she must cautiously control the Immortal Shuttle to avoid colliding with slightly larger fragnts."

Tang Qin turned around and softly interjected, "No, no, it’s quite the opposite. Earlier, when I was in control, I had to be vigilant not to hit any fragnts, but now the Immortal Shuttle flies automatically, so there’s no need to worry.

Relying entirely on the burning of Immortal Jade, it automatically avoids slightly larger stones. If it encounters small ones, the shield of the Immortal Shuttle simply deflects them."

With Mr. Jiang providing Immortal Jade, she was more than happy to take it easy.

Three hours later, the Immortal Shuttle gradually ca to a stop beside a vast and boundless world fragnt.

"I’ve never seen such a large drifting fragnt before, there must be many survivors on it!" Tang Qin leaned against the "floor-to-ceiling window" of the Immortal Shuttle, even able to clearly see the Spirit dicines growing on the flat grassland.

Ling Di also got up, panting with excitent, "Master, it’s an enormous world fragnt with Spiritual Energy, shall we go and have a look?"

[Discovered a Land Without Master, you can choose to fuse with the Mizhang Ridge instance to accept survivors from the Land Without Master—perform fusion and assimilation?]

Seeing the new notification, Jiang Yuan was even more convinced of his previous deductions — places without Spiritual Energy where mortals resided would fuse with the Riverfront Village; this fragnt, with Spiritual Energy and growing dicinal exotic flowers and herbs, would directly rge with the Mizhang Ridge.

This classification would eventually create two worlds simultaneously, which was quite interesting.

"I will take this fragnt, better let Yun Shu do it, you can wait a bit. When we arrive at the Lantian Domain ruins, you can go as well." He didn’t want to waste too much ti retrieving fragnts; Yun Shu was adept at it, and within less than three minutes, this land could be pocketed.

Old Dog twitched its ears at his words and asked, "What kind of place is the Lantian Domain ruins? Did Master bring along just for those ruins?"

Watching Yun Shu fly gracefully like an immortal to the fragnt to look for survivors, Jiang Yuan casually replied, "Yes, that place has great relevance to you, or you could say your greatest opportunity is at the Lantian Domain ruins. It’s best to conserve your strength along the way, so when we get there, you can shine."

"Woof woof! I knew Master was the best, Master will surely plan for !" Ling Di spun around excitedly on the spot, hopping a bit as it joyfully asked, "Master, could you reveal what kind of opportunity it is? I’m so eager now!"

"Have you ever heard of the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog?"

Caught off guard upon hearing these four words, Old Dog’s four legs almost gave way, nearly causing it to sit on the floor. It had never dared to dream it might be connected to the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog!

"Woof! Of course I’ve heard, woof!" Its voice quivered with excitent, nodding vigorously, "It’s the legendary celestial hound that can swallow the heavens and devour the sun and moon, fend off demons and monsters! Master, are you saying that I might have the chance to achieve the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog’s fate at the Lantian Domain ruins?!"

Jiang Yuan thought to himself, so the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog is the legendary celestial hound that eats the moon, I never knew.

Since the conversation had reached this point, might as well lay the cards on the table!

But he couldn’t promise too much, not knowing how the long-stalled side quest would unfold, so he nodded with a smile, "You’re quite right, the opportunity is indeed there, but whether you can achieve the Heaven-Swallowing Divine Dog status will ultimately depend on your fate."
