152: First Arrival at the Emerald Dream

Xu Shian groggily opened his system calendar to take a look.

Waking up, it was already noon on June 23rd... Good grief, he'd slept for 16 hours straight!

Checking his energy points, they were already back to full.

He didn't feel tired while fighting continuously.

But when he took time to rest, he could restore his condition to maximum in one go!

Perhaps this was the benefit of increasing his level and strength...

This trip out had directly boosted Xu Shian's strength by two or three levels...

It wasn't just his own stats that were overpowered; even his subordinates were rising in power right along with him!

When he got up, his head felt a bit groggy.

After not sleeping for so long and then sleeping for 16 hours straight, he felt both sleepy and tired, as if he hadn't slept enough...

Xu Shian sat up and rubbed his eyes.

Xu Shian released Wu Lun and Sink from the Emerald Dream.

This Emerald Dream was truly a great place!

The two of them had fully recovered their condition three or four hours ago and had already been working inside for a long time!

They had even listed a batch of handcrafted items for sale!

This made Xu Shian incredibly envious...

It was a pity he couldn't enter the Emerald Dream...

Couldn't enter?

He couldn't enter before...

Thinking of a certain possibility, Xu Shian immediately perked up.

"Wu Lun?"

"Boss, what are your orders!"

Xu Shian thought for a moment, then took out his Anywhere Door and handed it to Wu Lun!

"Take the Anywhere Door to the Emerald Dream, open it from there, and try opening it directly into this room!"

Wu Lun's eyes lit up as he understood what Xu Shian meant! He then put on a slightly troubled expression!

"Uh..."

Every time Xu Shian saw Wu Lun hesitate, he got a headache!

He couldn't help but wonder if he had done something stupid...

"If you have something to say, say it..."

"I can open it to the Emerald Dream from here too..."

Xu Shian: ...

"I meant... I mean... I wanted to see what the Anywhere Door looked like when it suddenly appeared!"

"Alright, I'm going now!"

Xu Shian didn't delay and sent Wu Lun straight back to the Emerald Dream...

Out of sight, Wu Lun slapped himself!

Just do whatever the boss says, why talk so much...

More than ten seconds later, it looked like someone had cleaved a crack in the void on the wall in front of him!

Subsequently, a pink door emerged from the void. With a click, it was as if the door had been embedded into the wall!

Xu Shian turned the doorknob from his side, opened the door, and locked eyes with Wu Lun on the other side!

Then, he stepped inside!

[Ding, you have arrived at an unknown area!]

[You have received a buff from the Dead Tree of Life!]

[You have received a buff from the Abandoned Fountain of Life!]

[You have received a buff from the Dilapidated Magic Spring!]

...

Walking out of the treehouse where Wu Lun lived, Xu Shian saw the full view of this Emerald Dream with his own eyes for the first time...

Lush greenery was the baseline!

Small bridges and flowing water were the embellishments!

This area was filled with giant trees dozens of meters in diameter!

Some of the dead giant trees had formed treehouses that could be lived in and modified according to the owner's mood...

And the place where Xu Shian and the others were located was just a corner of this forest!

In the very center, a giant tree that would have been able to block out the sky in its prime stood proudly!

From such a distance, Xu Shian stood there and nearly broke his neck looking up before he could see its treetop.

Unfortunately, the bare canopy now signaled the state of this giant tree...

Just by looking at it, Xu Shian could feel a sense of sorrow emanating from the bottom of his heart!

For the first time, Xu Shian had a true understanding of the so-called god-level talent...

Perhaps... this god-level required a real god behind it to support it!

Even if it was a dead deity?

Xu Shian's arrival startled all the small animals here...

They were all caught by Xu Shian one by one from the Novice Village!

The level 1 Wild Rabbit and level 2 Irritable Wild Chicken from back then were now all level 13 monsters!

Creatures in the Emerald Dream could receive 100% of the same experience points as Xu Shian...

After dispersing the monsters here, Xu Shian felt a different kind of gaze!

Turning back, in the river not far away, a golden fish was poking its head out, looking at Xu Shian.

This guy lost favorability whenever he tried to catch it, but it lived freely and leisurely here...

Seeing Xu Shian's gaze, the little goldfish spat a water arrow that dampened the corner of Xu Shian's clothes, then flicked its tail and dropped straight back into the water!

"Hehehe..."

Xu Shian's expression turned solemn as he looked at Wu Lun next to him!

"Did you hear laughter just now?"

Wu Lun blinked his eyes in confusion.

"I... should I have heard it?"

Xu Shian: ...

"Never mind then..."

Looking back at the golden little fish that continued to peek at him, Xu Shian decided to ignore this guy.

He had previously tried Contract Summoning and also tried Tame Beast, but neither had any effect on this little guy!

He couldn't do anything about it for now, so he could only put it aside; it was already in the bowl, surely it couldn't fly away, right?

Xu Shian turned to look at Wu Lun and asked.

"How far is that giant tree from here? Why don't you live over there?"

Wu Lun looked at that giant tree which should have been able to block out the sky.

"It's too far. Looking at a mountain can run a horse to death; even if I rode the Dragon Scale Horse at full speed, it would take six or seven hours to get there... The key is that every time we are sent here, we are fixed at this location..."

Xu Shian nodded! He tried it, but couldn't send himself out, so he had to return the way he came!

He returned to the 'You Jian Inn' from the Anywhere Door!

Xu Shian had a sudden thought and directly tried to remove this door from the wall...

He wanted to test if he could remove the door from this side even though Wu Lun had installed it from the other side!

To his surprise, it actually worked...

The door on the wall suddenly vanished, and Wu Lun on the other side felt terrible!

He shouted in his heart: I haven't gotten on board yet...

Xu Shian thought for a moment, placed the door back, and thought of 'Emerald Dream' in his mind.

[Anywhere Door is cooling down!]

[Cooldown time: 4 hours 59 minutes 18 seconds!]

That's right, this thing has a cooldown!

He directly summoned Wu Lun out of the Emerald Dream again!

Although today's experiment could be considered a perfect success, at this moment, Xu Shian also felt a bit conflicted...

The door was a good door, but if anyone could open the lock and someone on the other side could take it down and carry it away, that wouldn't be such a great thing!

This also made Xu Shian realize that the use of this door needed to be handled with extreme caution!

If, heaven forbid, he hadn't gone over yet, but the door was taken down and stolen from the other side, he wouldn't even have a place to cry...

After all, this thing wasn't bound.

Nor was it like the demon passport, which could be used just by keeping it in his backpack.

However... binding?

Xu Shian thought about it; he remembered having a talent that could bind three items?

[Skill 2] Versatile Craftsmanship:

When crafting any item, it must have an extra attribute. [What's wrong with common equipment? Can't common equipment have +5% movement speed?]

When crafting any item, there is a 25% chance to trigger a critical hit, which can guarantee double the yield.

Exclusive Perk: You can select three pieces of equipment for soul binding; they will not be dropped upon death.

The only question was whether this Anywhere Door counted as equipment and if it could be soul-bound!

He tried it...

[Are you sure you want to soul-bind the 'Anywhere Door'? The first unbinding will cost 10 years of extra lifespan!]

It seemed this binding still needed careful consideration before committing...

Since it said the first time would cost ten years, it could only mean that the cost of unbinding would definitely get higher and higher!

However, this Anywhere Door was just too convenient; it was practically a strategic-level item!

"Confirm binding!"

[Ding, congratulations, the 'Anywhere Door' has been soul-bound to you! Outsiders will be unable to operate the 'Anywhere Door'!]

Outsiders unable to operate...

He wanted to have Wu Lun try the Anywhere Door again to see if Wu Lun counted as an 'insider'...

After all, in fact, these people all possessed his soul imprint and belonged to the category of people completely controlled by him...

But it was currently in a cooldown state, so he'd better wait until the cooldown was over before trying again!
