Returning to the Hallucinatory Forest

Soon, the plan was finalized.

Liu Yan and the others engaged in further discussions, deciding to execute the operation at the break of dawn the following day to make the most of the opportunity.

After all, it was already the 25th day since Team Origin had arrived at the sixth level of the tower’s Wind Barrier. With just five days remaining until the disappearance of the territory barrier, time was of the essence.

As soon as the territory barrier vanished, all new territories would automatically initiate their first random territory battle.

This meant that Liu Yan had a mere five days to venture into the deepest part of the Hallucinatory Forest, locate the Hallucinatory Demon Orchid, and construct the essence pool. Ideally, there would also be time to enhance the essence of all Origin Territory members, ensuring they faced the subsequent territory battles with increased strength and optimal conditions.

Late at night, within the Origin Territory, the members of Team Origin were diligently engaged in their cultivation.

The first through fifth squads, who were originally part of Team Origin, had returned to the Origin Territory and were adapting well. At present, they were fully immersed in their cultivation.

Having undergone successive battles and focused on recovery, they had scarce opportunity to dedicate themselves to cultivation before.

Now, after experiencing multiple battles, each individual had gained valuable insights. It was imperative for them to cultivate and consolidate these insights swiftly, thereby honing their true strength.

Especially after Liu Qingrou and the others brought a large amount of resources from the original Lighthouse territory warehouse, including many high-level cultivation resources.

While a small portion of these premium resources was held in reserve, the majority had already been distributed among the members.

While these high-level cultivation resources were undoubtedly precious, their primary purpose was to bolster the team’s strength. Distributing these resources for the team members’ power enhancement held the most significant value.

For the members of the first through fifth squads, encountering such a wealth of high-level cultivation resources was an entirely novel experience.

Consequently, they were presently engrossed in their cultivation. Drawing upon their past life-and-death battles’ insights, combined with the influence of these high-level resources, their strength was growing exponentially.

In the next few days, they would be able to quickly increase their strength, and this was also their most important task.

After all, the territory barrier was going to disappear in a few days. They would have to start training in the Wind Barrier and increase their strength as much as possible to deal with the upcoming battle. That was the most important thing right now.

“This is a Faint Blue Flower, an A-grade cultivation resource. In the past, I’ve primarily used C-grade cultivation resources. Now, I’m suddenly utilizing an S-grade cultivation resource.”

“What’s the fuss? A-grade cultivation resources are plentiful. I just received an S-grade cultivation resource myself.”

“After all, these are resources from a level-5 territory warehouse. Naturally, they far exceed our current level.”

“Haha, thanks for the hard work of the original members of the Lighthouse Territory. Now, it’s all ours.”

“I feel that in the next few days, it’s possible for us to increase our combat strength by one star.”

“We must focus on intensifying our strength as much as possible. The sixth and seventh squads are incredibly formidable now. We must hasten to catch up.”

“Absolutely, we’re ahead in the rankings, so we must catch up in strength!”

The members of the first to fifth squads were filled with immense joy at this moment. Simultaneously, a sense of urgency drove them to rapidly enhance their power, striving to maximize their gains.

After all, whether it was confronting territory battles or bridging the strength gap with the sixth and seventh squads, a palpable urgency coursed through their ranks.

On the other side, the sixth and seventh squads had only just arrived at the Origin Territory today and had recently become part of it.

Initially, they were somewhat unfamiliar and uncomfortable with the notion of joining a new territory.

However, upon discovering that the Origin Territory possessed a platinum potential Lord’s Token, surpassing even the original Lighthouse Territory, their perceptions of the Origin Territory underwent a dramatic shift.

Furthermore, the members of Team Origin all hailed from the Blue Planet.

After all, they were all from the same planet, Awakened from their hometown. There was no need for them to treat each other as outsiders.

Soon enough, the members of the sixth and seventh squads began to gradually integrate into the Origin Territory, developing a growing sense of belonging.

“I never expected the platinum potential Lord’s Token to be so incredible. Leveling up to level-3 comes with such a wealth of additional rewards.”

“Indeed, this extra reward has boosted my strength by 10%.”

“Yes, it takes at least two months of normal cultivation to have this effect. Now, strength seems to descend from the heavens as I lay down. Truly remarkable.”

“The platinum Lord’s Token has numerous other benefits as well. While the Origin Territory may be a new addition and not comparable to our original Lighthouse Territory, its potential is considerable.”

“I share the same sentiment. I firmly believe that as we develop within the Origin Territory, our future will shine brightly!”

“Let’s focus on enhancing our strength as quickly as possible. This is simply incredible!”

The members of the sixth and seventh squads were elated, embracing a growing acceptance of the Origin Territory.

On another side, Liu Yan also informed the core and expert members of Team Origin, urging them to devote their efforts to enhancing their strength and supervising all team members. Leaving the Origin Territory was strictly prohibited.

Naturally, Liu Yan had already enacted measures to disable the city walls and teleportation hall. For the time being, no member of Team Origin could depart from the Origin Territory.

After giving his instructions, Liu Yan returned to his wooden house and rested.

After all, they would be venturing deep into the Hallucinatory Forest and the core region of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers.

During this process, a major battle might await, so he naturally needed to rest and prepare for the upcoming confrontation.

The following morning, in the dim light of dawn, on the square of the Origin Territory, numerous team members were already engaged in training and sparring exercises.

A night of cultivation had significantly boosted their strength, and now they were practicing and dueling with each other to get accustomed to their newfound power.

Liu Yan gained considerable insights during these battles.

While cultivating could enhance one’s strength, the pace of improvement it offered was sufficient for most team members but not for Liu Yan.

This was because Liu Yan had an even swifter method of enhancing his power through the extraction of his SSS-grade talent, Divine Extraction.

This time, Liu Yan wanted to go deep into the Hallucinatory Forest alone and into the core of the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers alone. There were three main purposes.

Firstly, he naturally sought to locate the Hallucinatory Demon Orchid, collecting its materials to construct the essence pool. This facility would aid all members of Team Origin in elevating their essence and prowess, establishing a strong groundwork for future battles and growth.

Secondly, Liu Yan aimed to eliminate the threat posed by the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. Having previously offended these creatures, a future confrontation was inevitable. Rather than passively waiting for the Psychedelic Man-eating Flowers to thrive unchecked, Liu Yan chose to take the initiative, seeking an opportunity to eradicate them and prevent any future calamities.

And the third goal was Liu Yan’s selfishness. That was, Liu Yan wanted to quickly increase his strength.action

Regardless of whether it was the upcoming territorial battle or the formidable opponents like the Lakon Territory he was destined to face in the future, Liu Yan felt a sense of urgency.

Only by having sufficient personal strength could he ensure his safety. Liu Yan naturally prioritized the enhancement of his abilities.

Venturing deep into the Hallucinatory Forest and confronting numerous Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers was Liu Yan’s expedient method for rapidly augmenting his prowess.

From the Withered Tree Spirit King, Liu Yan had learned that the Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers he had encountered on the outskirts of the Hallucinatory Forest were merely low-level variants.

In the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest, there were still a large number of high-level Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers. This immediately attracted Liu Yan.

A large number of high-level creatures, wasn’t that how Liu Yan could quickly increase his strength?

Without disturbing the team members engaged in battles on the square, Liu Yan stealthily made his way to the teleportation square within the Origin Territory.

Only the higher-ups of Team Origin knew about Liu Yan’s actions. In order to avoid the worry of the Origin team members and to allow them to focus on improving their strength, Liu Yan’s actions were completely hidden from the ordinary team members.

After Liu Yan turned invisible and reached the teleportation square, he employed his Lord’s authority to temporarily activate the plaza, facilitating his direct teleportation.

A flash of white light later, Liu Yan had vanished from his initial spot, reappearing deep within the Hallucinatory Forest.

Simultaneously, using the Lord’s token, Liu Yan remotely sealed off the teleportation square in the Origin Territory.

Surveying the familiar surroundings, Liu Yan couldn’t help but smile wryly at the surge of Withered Tree Spirits converging around him.

Little did he expect to return to this place so soon after leaving just yesterday.

However, this time, Liu Yan had returned on his own.

Without wasting any time, Liu Yan immediately activated his SSS-grade special equipment, the Wings of the Wind God. Following the guidance of the Withered Tree Spirit King, he soared deeper into the Hallucinatory Forest.
