The ground trembled, the massive blood pool vanished into the white light, and the surrounding buildings made of nothing but remains and flesh also shattered into tiny pale red specks, scattering and fading into the air.
The roaring and collapsing sounds were incessant, and the tinkling notification tones also exploded in his ears.
The music of the strings was fascinating, intoxicating.
Soon, the celestial white light began to slowly retract, turning into several basketball-sized light balls emitting a magnificent treasure glow, floating before Mu Yuan.
It was that wonderful time for harvesting again.
Eradicating and purifying a common monster tribe hardly brought him surprises anymore. But the lair of a Monster Overlord was different; the huge blood pond was obviously more advanced than those in the minion tribes, not to mention...
"It's my first time eradicating a Monster Overlord, and the gift from Heaven and Earth even upgrades by one level? This, I've never heard of this."
He shook his head, washed his hands on the spot, and lit three incense sticks as an offering to Heaven and Earth before rubbing his hands together and starting to open the treasure light balls.
'Notification: Acquired Remnant Soul 'Fierce Gun Ranger (Excellence Three-star)'.'
'Notification: Acquired Miracle Blueprints 'Energy Well (Excellence)'.'
'Notification: Acquired Special Gift 'Celestial Baptismal Light (Special)'.'
'Celestial Baptismal Light'
'Description: You possess one opportunity for the light of Heaven and Earth Baptism to descend and upgrade the troops within your territory. The strength of the Celestial Baptismal Light effect depends on the current level of your territory.'
'Note: This opportunity can only be retained for a maximum of seven days.'
Mu Yuan stroked his chin, "Similar to the Light of Baptism during territory upgrade? Not bad."
This Light of Baptism was not very effective for Dead Bone, Duo Lai, or the T1 Chief who had already reached the Fourth-order Peak and stepped into the Legendary Realm, but for the vast majority who were still in the Second-order, Third-order, and Four-order Elite, the growth was significant.
Within the Tianyuan Territory's various troop types, the level difference among the Elites was quite evident.
Some Elites recruited and trained later might even be only Second-order.
Mu Yuan had already opened three light balls.
In his hand remained another two light balls.
The radiance of these two light balls was even more magnificent and mysterious.
He snapped open the first one, and a purple splendor soared into the sky, quickly obscured by the drawn blackness of night by Sophia, who stood by his side.
'Notification: You have obtained the Epic Treasure 'Crown of Sovereignty'.'
'Crown of Sovereignty'
'Description: A crown symbolizing the sovereignty of Heaven and Earth, which significantly enhances the bearer's ability to command Heaven and Earth and extends the control over the Elements of Heaven and Earth.'
An Epic Level treasure similar to the Space Urn and Pure White Feather.
The power of this Epic Treasure was more direct and forceful.
Mu Yuan gave it a try—his synchronized avatar was only at the Fourth-order Limit, but he himself was a formidable Legendary master with multiple talents greatly enhancing affinity with Heaven and Earth.
Even at the Fourth-order Limit, he could still command the Power of Heaven and Earth within a small radius.
This radius was about six hundred meters.
However, issuing commands was not as effortless as in the Legendary Realm, somewhat strenuous.
Yet, when he donned the Crown of Sovereignty, those elusive, mischievous, and rebellious elemental particles suddenly became obedient.
The world in Mu Yuan's eyes transformed profoundly, becoming crystal clear; it was as if he had leaped from the Fourth-order Limit to Legendary... no, the change was even more exaggerated.
His domain radius remained at 500 meters.
But his radius of control over Heaven and Earth kept expanding.
1000 meters, 2000 meters, 3000 meters...
The radius of control kept extending until it stalled at 4999 meters.
With his palm hoisted up and a mere thought, the elemental particles between Heaven and Earth flocked to his palm, forging a gigantic Light Sword hundreds of meters long.
At another thought, this giant sword condensed of wild energy dispersed, stirring a storm surge in the surrounding area.
"This treasure is quite impressive."
"This is nearly a tenfold increase in control range."
The tenfold radius increase greatly amplified his own Combat Power, far more than ten times.
Of course, such an exaggerated growth was also due to his 'low base'. A normal being in the Legendary Realm might only see several times the increase at most.
"An ordinary being in the Legendary Realm bearing this treasure could confront... at the very least, it could stand its ground against those at the Peak of Heaven and Earth Realm."
"A single treasure allows an ordinary Legendary to leap through several orders of Combat Power, so powerful."
Mu Yuan also noticed that this Epic Treasure was not without flaws.
It was most suitable for those in the Legendary Earth Realm.
In the hands of someone in the Legendary Soul Realm or Legendary Skill Realm, the boost received wouldn't be as dramatic.
"Now, it's time for the last light ball."
"Could it be the main event?"
The splendor of this light ball was much the same as the previous one, but that didn't mean an Epic would appear.
Before opening a blind box, nobody ever knows what might be inside.
Maybe it's just a mundane treasure.
The splendor blooming before him was not purple.
Feeling a bit disappointed, he suddenly realized that this colorless luminance was more colossal and dazzling than the previous purple pillar of light.
The light soared to the sky, revealing an extremely mysterious building model brimming with profound truths of Heaven and Earth, descending into his palm.
'Notification: You have obtained the Four-order troop building 'Royal Gunners Association'.'
'Royal Gunners Association'
'Effect One: At intervals, a certain number of 'Royal Musketeers (Rare ★★★)' can be recruited, with a small chance to recruit 'Dual Gun Ranger (Excellence ★)' upon recruiting, and an extremely small chance to recruit 'Fierce Gun Ranger (Excellence ★★★)'.'
