121: Chapter 121 caused a sensation, Level 5 territory

A Level 4 territory could absolutely not withstand a seventh-order calculation; the gap between the two sides was too great.

"Could it be that there is a sixth-order hero or Troop Type stationed in Lin Xiao's territory?"

"That's not right either."

Andrew suddenly thought of a possibility—powerful existences could indeed affect calculations—but he immediately dismissed it.

Great Master Du Yin was, after all, seventh-order. No matter how powerful a sixth-order entity was, it would at most cause the calculation to fail, not lead to a backlash.

Just as Andrew was completely baffled, Great Master Du Yin recovered, and the aura around him became steady.

A cold killing intent radiated from him.

"You actually dared to provide false information and plot against me."

Great Master Du Yin suddenly raised his palm, and a grey-black beam of light instantly slammed into Andrew.

The latter let out a miserable scream as the sound of shattering came from his body, and he was sent flying.

"How dare you, you madman!"

"How dare you harm the Lord!"

The nearby heroes and Troop Types were furious. Some rushed toward Andrew, while others charged at Great Master Du Yin.

Although there was a gap in strength between the two sides, their loyalty to Andrew was clearly very high, so they did not hesitate to take action.

A cold sneer appeared on the corner of Great Master Du Yin's mouth.

"Ants."

He raised his palm again.

The situation was on the verge of spiraling out of control.

"Stop."

"Everyone, stop!"

Andrew struggled to crawl up from the ground. Bleeding from his seven orifices, he looked quite terrifying, but he dared not lie down, nor did he wish to spark a conflict with Great Master Du Yin and the Shadow Race Lord behind him.

"Great Master Du Yin, we absolutely had no intention of plotting against you."

"We will definitely investigate what happened and give you an explanation."

Andrew said, gasping for breath.

Seeing this, Great Master Du Yin calmed down as well.

He had only attacked Andrew in a moment of shock and anger.

Upon calming down and thinking about it, Andrew indeed had no reason to harm him.

After placating Great Master Du Yin, Andrew's face was grim to the extreme. He glared fiercely at Drake, who was stunned nearby. "Investigate it for me. What exactly happened?"

"If..."

His cold gaze made Drake tremble all over.

Andrew needed to give Great Master Du Yin an explanation, and likewise, Drake needed to give him one; after all, it was the latter who had brought that mysterious item.

"I, I didn't... I didn't know it would turn out like this."

Drake was on the verge of tears.

He never expected such a situation to occur.

To avoid being torn to pieces by Andrew, and to prove his innocence, he immediately began investigating the truth with all his might.

The investigation results came out quickly.

It wasn't because Drake was highly efficient, but because this matter was common knowledge.

"Level 5 territory! Lin Xiao has upgraded to a Level 5 territory!"

Looking at the investigation results, Andrew finally understood what was going on.

No wonder Great Master Du Yin said they had provided false information.

Great Master Du Yin's calculation pointed to a Level 4 territory, but just as he was calculating, Lin Xiao's territory suddenly upgraded to Level 5. With the territory upgrading... under the entanglement of Karma, how could he not suffer a backlash?

"Damn it, he's truly insane."

Andrew cursed under his breath.

He didn't know what exactly Lin Xiao was thinking.

A Level 5 territory was far more dangerous than a Level 4 territory.

Of course, for them, this was definitely a good thing; they could use more power to deal with Lin Xiao.

"Since you're courting death, I'll send you on your way."

Andrew immediately took action.

He wanted to lock onto Lin Xiao's territory again as quickly as possible and then launch a frantic attack.

Great Master Du Yin had suffered a backlash and could not perform calculations again for a short time, but Andrew clearly wouldn't just wait around. He immediately ordered his men to screen the intruders who had already been arranged.

In particular, those Lords who had already finished their invasion battles were the primary targets for screening.

Meanwhile.

In the First Source Sea, the Human Race's regional channel exploded.

"Is Lin Xiao crazy?"

"A Level 4 territory would have been fine, but it's only been a few days, and he's actually upgraded to a Level 5 territory..."

Inside the Prodigy Group, countless messages were scrolling by.

Wei Xuanqi, Yun Zhiyue, and the others looked at the unique Level 5 territory on the prodigy ranking, all of them stunned beyond words.

They had descended into the Chaos Source Sea together, yet they were only at Level 3 territory.

No one could understand it.

The path of a Lord has always been one step at a time. To upgrade two levels in such a short time—just how weak must Lin Xiao's Foundation be?

Even if he were a Super-spec Lord, his current strength probably wouldn't be much stronger than an ordinary Level 5 Lord.

It was too irrational; it was simply courting death.

"Regardless, let's still trust Lin Xiao."

"He must have his own reasons for doing this, and I believe he surely has a certain level of confidence to act this way."

"The Lord Association won't just watch Lin Xiao fall; the Tianwu Alliance will provide him with protection."

Jin Ruxuan and the other Prodigies, although unable to understand, still chose to believe.

"Whether Lin Xiao lives or dies, our batch of the prodigy ranking is likely unprecedented in the entire history of the Human Race."

A Prodigy suddenly said.

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately resonated with the others.

From ancient times to the present, such an outrageous situation had never occurred.

It wasn't just in the First Source Sea; Lin Xiao's promotion also caused a huge sensation in the Second Source Sea.

More people were discussing it, talking about topics related to Lin Xiao.

"As expected, he was aiming for promotion."

Jin Huan let out a long breath.

When Lin Xiao purchased territory coordinates from him, he had already guessed it, but he didn't expect it to actually be true.

It really was crazy enough.

The territory of Lin Xiao's parents.

Lin Zhenyue and Human Lord looked at each other with worry.

They also hadn't expected that Lin Xiao would choose to upgrade to a Level 5 territory so quickly. In just one month, he had walked the path that took them over a dozen years to complete, standing shoulder to shoulder with them.

"Let's trust our son."

Lin Zhenyue sighed and said helplessly.

Human Lord nodded silently.

With their strength, they couldn't interfere at all.

However, having had that previous support, the two were very clear that Lin Xiao's strength was not something they could imagine, so they didn't lose their composure.

Lin Xiao didn't care at all about the turmoil in the outside world.

At this moment, his thoughts were entirely on the transformation of his territory.

The first to complete the transformation was, naturally, the Lords Mansion.

The Lords Mansion and the surrounding 100,000 square meters of territory were all enveloped in golden light. When the transformation was complete, the Lords Mansion became increasingly grand and luxurious, and two additional auxiliary buildings appeared beside it.

It had changed from one building to three, but only the original one was the main body of the Lords Mansion; the other buildings were merely attachments, essentially no different from civilian houses.

The territory core also existed only in the main building.

Subsequently, the endless golden light spread throughout the entire territory, perfecting the rules and structure of the territory.

Every time the territory upgraded, it would become increasingly perfect, evolving toward a higher level.

However, this time, it seemed that quantitative change had finally led to qualitative change, and the entire territory underwent a complete transformation.
