Global Lords: Me and My Calabash Kiddos

Chapter 598: Chapter 241: Celestial Mountain Dao-breaking Crystal, Five Elements True Intent

"Brother! It’s cold! In this weather, drinking is the most delightful!"

At nine o’clock in the evening, Ta Fang contacted Yi Tian.

"Indeed! I also think warming wine in the snow is very fitting," Yi Tian responded to Ta Fang.

Although Yi Tian doesn’t actually drink.

"Since you Lords arrived, even the weather has changed. Winters were cold before, but not like now. Rumor has it this snow will last a long time," Ta Fang lamented.

Not everyone can cultivate; Indigenous People and Lords are different.

Upon entering the Celestial Dao World, Lords undergo a Celestial Dao cleansing, endowing all Lords with certain cultivation potential.

Of course, ordinary Lords can’t reach S-level cultivation by relying only on initial potential; they must constantly grow and progress.

Ordinary Indigenous People might not reach E-level in their lifetime. Consuming Spirit Medicine is a waste. They can only live ordinary lives.

The weather is a torment for ordinary people.

Recently, Ta Fang has been worrying endlessly about the ordinary members of the Longlong Tribe.

"Spring will come!"

Yi Tian remained optimistic, pondering what the second year might bring after the first year passes.

"I must visit your territory next month for a drink with you, my brother. I am confident you will overcome this weakest crisis of the mist!"

The so-called assessment is when the mist reaches its weakest, and the Celestial Dao Rules incite the Indigenous People to attack the Lords.

The Celestial Dao Rules only control fierce beasts, not top-level intelligent life.

Why aren’t the Indigenous People afraid of Yi Tian?

It’s because the Celestial Dao Rules enable the Indigenous High Priest to detect, through the altar, that Yi Tian possesses plethora of valuable items.

Some treasures are enough to transform a tribe, strengthening the rulers of nations and tribes.

People die for wealth, birds die for food.

The attack on Yi Tian’s territory is no longer just about a so-called "Divine Stone."

"Of course!" Yi Tian was contemplating how to minimize the loss.

Every month-end assessment leaves some territories ruined, with points reset.

"Brother, do you know which tribes will attack me tomorrow?" Yi Tian shifted the conversation, asking Ta Fang.

The month-end assessment is different from ordinary disasters, as the Celestial Dao specifies that the assessment begins at nine o’clock on the thirty-first, allowing both sides some preparation time.

"I’m not entirely sure. I only know there’s involvement from Outer Realm territories in this assessment, apparently from a Two-Star Territory not far from the Ten Kingdoms Region, with King-level influences, and not just one."

"In the Ten Kingdoms Region, it’s said that the Donglin Kingdom, Great Yan Kingdom, and Limon Beastman Tribe are going to attack your territory. Among them, the Donglin Kingdom bought a spot from the Sea Kingdom! The Sea Kingdom was intimidated by you and dared not return. The Limon Beastmen bought a spot from the Feng Kingdom. Feng Kingdom is adjacent to the Great Fei Kingdom, which suffered greatly. Feng Kingdom doesn’t see this attack as promising, people aren’t as blinded by benefits as before. But the treasures in your territory draw them; even with a ten percent chance, they’ll try. Feng Kingdom and Sea Kingdom see no chance, while Donglin Kingdom, Great Yan Kingdom, and the Limon Beastmen believe that with external strong forces involved, your territory will be breached, so they’ll try to catch some benefit."

Ta Fang shared all he knew with Yi Tian.

Once Outer Realm forces get involved, the Earth Bear and Dagu Realm hope to obtain the SS-level Potential Fierce Beast in Yi Tian’s territory.

The major forces in the Ten Kingdoms Region are also resentful! The Celestial Dao Rules gave them a month to seize the Earth Bear opportunity, but they failed.

When strength doesn’t match, the Celestial Dao Rules transfer information about Yi Tian’s territory to a higher-level territory.

For the two King-level influences receiving Yi Tian’s territory information, it’s a gift from heaven and earth.

A big, fat sheep delivered to their doorstep!

They never imagined such amazement among the Lords.

The failure in the One-Star Territory, they disdain it.

But it made them serious!

Carrying a determination for a decisive strike.

"Thank you, Brother Ta Fang, for the information. I am fully prepared!"

Yi Tian expressed his gratitude to Ta Fang.

He hadn’t expected Outer Realm involvement.

King-level influences! Stronger than the Demon Wolf Abyss.

The Demon Wolf Abyss only has the Demon Wolf King, an SS-level entity.

But King-level influences might have several strong figures, their territory determining their vision.

The range of their influence and cultivation of Celestial Pride differs greatly from Dagu Realm.

"[Cotton Clothes*300,000] Trading [None]."

Ta Fang initiated a trade.

Yi Tian had already paid for these cotton clothes long ago.

Ta Fang also admired Yi Tian’s foresight; at today’s prices, these cotton clothes could not have been bought.

A person without integrity cannot stand, and Ta Fang wasn’t an old stubborn one in the tribe, inflating prices without cause.

Yi Tian placed all these cotton clothes in Vault #2.

"Brother, during our Longlong Tribe’s fur acquisition for you, initially it was at base price, then doubled on the twenty-ninth, and today increased by another one and a half. Therefore, our Longlong Tribe calculates it at twice the original price, hoping for your understanding!" Ta Fang clarified during a trade of fur with Yi Tian.

To put it simply, the cotton was ten Celestial Dao Coins per unit, and it doubled on the second day of snow to twenty Celestial Dao Coins per unit. On the third day of snow, it was thirty Celestial Dao Coins per unit.

Ta Fang calculated it at twenty Celestial Dao Coins, being thoroughly fair.

This also demonstrated Ta Fang’s credibility, as the Longlong Tribe getting acquisitions involved spending more Gold and Beast Cores.

"Of course! Brother Ta Fang, please report the quantity of materials, and I’ll immediately prepare Gold."

Yi Tian was quite pleased internally.

He underestimated the extreme cold of the Celestial Dao World; even if the Winter Beast is ineffective, Yi Tian can still make a small profit.

If the Winter Beast proves effective, it would mean a huge profit.
