5: Chapter 5: The Birth of a Hero!

Boom.

The earth trembled violently.

Beside the sacrificial stone array in the center of the tribe, the soil churned and the rock layers cracked.

A white jade pool covering an entire mu of land rose abruptly from the ground.

The edge of the stone pool was carved with intricate high-order law spirit patterns, and the interior was parched to the bottom.

Lin Yunfei brought up the creation terminal panel.

His gaze locked onto the building attributes.

"Activate the core spring."

One thousand faith points were deducted on the spot.

Dazzling light burst from the bottom of the white jade pool.

Thick purple qi soared into the sky.

High-order law pool water containing massive spiritual energy gushed out, instantly filling the entire marrow cleansing pool.

The water surface was wreathed in mist, emitting an exotic fragrance.

The human warriors who were drilling formations in the camp simultaneously stopped their movements.

The crowd broke into an uproar and gathered around.

Sensing the majestic life-tier might contained within the pool water, their eyes all revealed extreme fanaticism and desire.

Lin Yunfei lowered a grand divine voice.

"I bestow upon you the water of marrow cleansing. Those who enter the pool shall shed their mortal bodies and cast spirit bones."

Divine might was vast.

The tangible law coercion swept across the entire scene.

Twenty thousand humans knelt uniformly on the ground, kowtowing frantically.

With the descent of the divine miracle, the underlying awe was completely materialized.

[Record: Scions witnessed a high-tier divine miracle, the faith channel is extremely stable.]

[The daily faith point output base has risen significantly, current single-day earnings: two thousand points.]

Looking at the stably fluctuating values on the panel, Lin Yunfei immediately issued the command to enter the pool.

The five hundred strongest mortal warriors in the tribe stepped out first.

They took off their heavy animal-skin defensive gear and stepped into the marrow cleansing pool without hesitation.

The moment the high-order law pool water touched their skin and flesh, it felt like boiling molten iron being poured over their entire bodies.

Severe pain struck.

The warriors clenched their teeth tightly, letting out low roars from their throats.

Their physical bodies began to undergo a violent reorganization.

The pores on their skin opened outwards, and a large amount of foul-smelling gray-black impurities were forcibly expelled from their bodies.

The withered muscle fibers quickly plumped up and twisted together again.

A series of crackling explosions sounded from inside their bones.

Their bone density increased drastically.

A quarter of an hour passed.

The first batch of warriors stepped out of the white jade pool.

Their bodies grew taller by a few inches out of thin air, and their skin surfaces were covered with a layer of tough stratum corneum with faint shimmering light.

The physical limits of their original mortal bodies were shattered on the spot.

Lin Yunfei retrieved the scion panel to check the core data.

[Race: Human]

[Tier: Half-Step Tier 1]

[Physique Evaluation: Strength 5.5, Agility 4.8. Spiritual Qi affinity greatly enhanced.]

Comparing with the initial data, the basic values had multiplied several times over.

A warrior who had finished marrow cleansing grabbed a thousand-jin heavy rock with one hand and threw it fiercely with all his might.

The giant rock whistled and flew dozens of meters away, heavily smashing into the open space outside the wooden fence, shattering into countless stones on the spot.

The soaring physical fitness directly broke the original ecological balance of the Wasteland Divine Kingdom.

Lin Yunfei acutely perceived the crisis.

After stepping out of the pool, the warriors who completed the marrow cleansing all fell into an extreme state of hunger.

They rushed to the rear warehouse and gulped down the reserved rye in large mouthfuls.

The material reserve data on the creation terminal began to drop crazily.

The single-day consumption showed an exponential surge.

A full one hundred tons of rye was devoured by five hundred warriors in half a day.

Mortal-tier ryegrass could only provide basic satiety.

Facing the human warriors who had completed marrow cleansing and were about to impact the transcendent tier, the energy contained in rye was extremely scarce.

If they relied solely on eating rye, the warriors would have to swallow it continuously around the clock to maintain high-intensity physical operation.

This completely violated the efficiency of troop cultivation.

High-order troops must be supplemented with high-order rations.

The divine kingdom's ecological chain urgently needed a comprehensive iterative upgrade.

Lin Yunfei switched to the starnet trading mall.

Terminal balance: thirty-four thousand two hundred points.

He was ready to invest all of this capital into resource procurement.

Set precise search targets.

"Tier 1 spirit plant."

"High-energy meat."

"Ecological checks and balances."

Massive data streams washed across the screen. Lin Yunfei quickly filtered out inefficient materials and finally locked onto three core commodities.

He decisively bought one thousand catties of [Tier 1 Qi-Condensing Spirit Rice seeds], costing five thousand points.

Bought two hundred [Tier 1 Iron-Bristled Wild Boar cubs], costing five thousand points.

Bought one hundred [Tier 1 Shadow Wind Wolf cubs], costing six thousand points.

Three transactions confirmed, deducting sixteen thousand points.

The backup fund had eighteen thousand two hundred points remaining.

Lin Yunfei exercised the authority of the Creator to airdrop all the newly purchased materials into the divine kingdom's territory.

The Tier 1 Qi-Condensing Spirit Rice seeds accurately fell into the newly reclaimed thousand-mu spirit field behind the tribe.

The first-layer effect of [Transcendent Breeding] took effect immediately.

Dark gold light sprinkled across the fields.

Under the blessing of tenfold prosperity, the spirit rice broke through the soil and grew crazily, shooting up joint by joint.

Several hours later, golden rice ears weighed down the branches.

Rich spiritual qi permeated across the thousand-mu fields.

Human farmers quickly harvested it and sent it to the camp's logistics area.

After eating the cooked spirit rice, the half-step Tier 1 warriors felt their vital blood churning within their bodies.

The extreme sense of hunger was swept away, and abundant spiritual energy filled the deficit of the muscle cells.

The energy gap in physical evolution was completely made up for.

Immediately following.

The Iron-Bristled Wild Boars and Shadow Wind Wolves were released into the wilderness mountains and forests at the edge of the divine kingdom.

The tenfold reproduction law also applied to these Tier 1 spirit beasts.

Wild boars were omnivorous spirit beasts, and their reproductive capacity was inherently extremely strong.

Under the blessing of tenfold prosperity, the wild boars mated and gave birth like crazy.

In just a few short years, their numbers expanded rapidly to over ten thousand heads.

Mountains and plains were covered with giant wild boars clad in iron armor and hard bristles.

The Shadow Wind Wolves fed on wild boars; with an adequate food source, their population size surged accordingly.

The wind wolves ran like the wind, possessing astonishing biting power, and specialized in hunting stray wild boars.

Lin Yunfei deliberately introduced the wind wolves precisely to use top predators to control the runaway population of wild boars.

At the same time, this was even an excellent training ground.

The human warriors who finished marrow cleansing formed a hundred-man hunting phalanx and stepped out of the sturdy wooden fence.

Wielding refined iron spears and wearing thickened heavy armor, they directly charged into the wilderness.

They actively encircled and annihilated these two types of Tier 1 spirit beasts.

Above the wilderness, flesh and blood flew everywhere.

The Shadow Wind Wolves moved at extreme speeds, attempting to charge the human military array.

The warriors erected giant iron shields, and their spears accurately thrust through the gaps in the shields, piercing the vital points of the wind wolves on the spot.

Baptized by blood, the human warriors' practical combat and killing skills improved rapidly.

Their formation cooperation became increasingly tacit and cooperative.

After killing the spirit beasts, they dragged the spirit beast meat, rich in high-energy vital blood, back to the camp to serve as high-grade military rations.

The wolf pack ate pigs, and humans hunted wolves and pigs.

The divine kingdom's internal ecosystem operated stably, and the formation of combat power was just around the corner.

External monetization channels also needed to be broadened.

Lin Yunfei continued browsing the starnet mall.

He had to establish a core business strategy.

Utilizing the tenfold prosperity effect of the golden entry, on one hand, he would frantically resell high-profit resources on the starnet to amass wealth, and on the other hand, he would feed back into the divine kingdom to elevate the scions' combat power.

Search for scarce spirit plants.

Look for high-premium, long-cycle special crops.

Lock onto a target.

[Tier 1 Special Medicinal Herb: soul-condensing flower]

[Characteristic: The core main ingredient for refining primary spiritual potions. The growing environment is extremely harsh, the survival rate is extremely low, and the cultivation cycle is as long as five years.]

[starnet Chamber of Commerce minimum acquisition price: fifty faith points per plant.]

The profit was extremely terrifying.

Lin Yunfei paid ten thousand faith points to purchase two tens of thousands of soul-condensing flower seeds in full.

The current balance was only eight thousand two hundred points left.

Consciousness switched back to the divine kingdom.

On the barren ice field at the extreme northern end of the divine kingdom, he carved out an independent restricted area with a radius of ten miles.

The seeds were dropped.

The tenfold prosperity law suppressed the entire area.

The soul-condensing flower seeds, which were originally extremely delicate, took root and sprouted wildly like weeds on the wasteland ice field.

One day outside, ten years in the divine kingdom.

Even for the soul-condensing flower, whose growth conditions were extremely harsh, under the forcible promotion of the time flow rate and the golden entry, it quickly took root and sprouted.

But after all, this was only an F-grade Wasteland.

When the flower buds began to condense a faint blue halo, the meager spiritual qi of the entire ice field was completely hollowed out.

The barren soil foundation was simply incapable of supporting the full maturity of a huge number of high-order spirit plants.

Large patches of flower seedlings withered and turned yellow, turning into nutrients to feed back into the earth.

After experiencing cruel survival of the fittest, the soul-condensing flowers that finally survived and fully bloomed numbered only one thousand.

Lin Yunfei checked the panel records and quickly locked onto the crux.

The growth of high-order spirit plants extremely devoured spiritual qi. The wasteland origin was too shallow; if he wanted to expand production later, he had to purchase expensive special high-order spirit fertilizer, or directly plunder the origin of alien divine kingdoms to fill the deficit.

However, a quantity of one thousand was enough to relieve the urgent need.

Calculated according to the starnet minimum acquisition price of fifty points.

The total value of this batch of materials reached fifty thousand faith points.

Steady and solid progress was the long-term solution.

Lin Yunfei checked the overview data panel of the current creation terminal.

[Divine Kingdom Tier: Black Iron Tier 1]

[Divine Kingdom Area: 10 square kilometers]

[Faith Point Daily Earnings: two thousand points and rising steadily]

[Scion Population: twenty-two thousand people]

[Current Combat Power: twenty thousand warriors completed marrow cleansing, all members are half-step Tier 1]

[Divine Kingdom Ecological Closed Loop: Tier 1 spirit rice supply area, Tier 1 spirit beast practical combat sharpening area]

[Core Resource Reserve: one thousand mature soul-condensing flowers (pending liquidation)]

The marrow cleansing pool reshaped the bone structures of all twenty thousand members of the clan, and high-order rations made up for all vital blood deficits.

Everything was ready.

Just as Lin Yunfei was about to close the panel and exit the creation terminal.

A sudden change occurred.

A violent origin force far surpassing half-step Tier 1 followed the creation contract, crossed the plane barriers, and crashed directly into his body.

Within his limbs and bones, his vital blood boiled completely like magma.

A muffled thunderous explosion sounded inside his bones, and his physical strength directly crossed the physical limit, forcibly rising again.

On his retina, a string of dazzling dark gold characters flickered wildly, occupying his entire field of vision.

[Warning: High-energy reaction emerged within the divine domain]

[Transcendent Breeding Layer 2 effect triggered successfully]

[Record: Under the catalysis of the huge base and the marrow cleansing pool, scions in your divine kingdom have broken the mortal shackles and successfully stepped into the Tier 1 transcendent sequence]

[Heroic individual, born]
