This time, there are carnivorous animals.
For herbivorous animals, wolves are a deadly threat.
But for plants, herbivores like rabbits, plum deer, and antelopes are like wolves.
The real intention of beasts hunting is for survival, not slaughter.
Like the Tyrannosaurus on the Ancient Continent, when encountering a herd of Thunder Dragons, it only hunts one to satisfy its hunger. On Earth, tigers, leopards, and lions do the same; once full, they won’t kill more.
These wild beasts are nowhere near the match of auspicious beasts. When the Fourth Child rode a Celestial Immortal Crane at night, Yi Tian noticed its three-dimensional enhancement was 50.
The auspicious beasts are strange; they are considered members of the territory, but they don’t listen to Yi Tian and only run back to the city when avoiding combat.
Even if they aren’t considered territorial members, they still significantly increase the territorial Spirit Qi density.
As the Celestial Immortal Crane’s attributes increased, so did those of other auspicious beasts, granting them the power of E-level ferocious beasts.
Even a butterfly could blow away a wild wolf.
"Please, Lord, choose the location and shape of the prairie derivation."
After the Celestial Dao Stone introduction, a map of Yi Tian’s current territory appeared before him, along with a 300-square-kilometer plot of prairie.
With a thought, the prairie transformed into an irregular shape, lying south of Lake Two.
"Derive!"
At Yi Tian’s command, a green light descended from the heavens, and dramatic changes occurred in the territory south of Lake Two.
"Boom!"
The green light grew larger until with a loud boom, the inner space of the mist expanded once again.
A lush prairie appeared in the territory, with signs of seasonal decay in the vegetation.
Many small and medium wild animals, some of types never seen on Earth and others like the Tasmanian tiger which had once existed but is now extinct, appeared.
Unclear where the Celestial Dao Rules detained them from, the animals looked bewildered.
The Saltwater Lake was stretched even thinner.
"Select to derive a high-quality plain."
Yi Tian chose to use another Level 3 Celestial Dao Stone to derive a plain.
Though deriving mountains might yield a potential mineral vein,
even if a gold mine appeared, so what?
The Amethyst Ore on Amethyst Mountain hasn’t been touched by Yi Tian yet!
Moreover, deriving a Level 3 plain boosts grain yield and growth speed by 10%.
For the territory’s long-term development, this is quite beneficial.
The original farmland was abandoned, while 10,000 acres of new fertile land were opened and handed over to Galaxy Agriculture Company and prisoners. The remaining land was temporarily used for planting trees or left idle for future needs.
"Boom!"
Another booming sound marked the plain’s derivation to the city’s west, pushing the existing farmland further away.
New farmland would now be developed closer to the city.
The Saltwater Lake grew increasingly narrow.
Of the 129 Second-Level Sealed Celestial Dao Stones, four were used to create a 40-square-kilometer freshwater lake on the Level 3 plain for easier farmland irrigation, designated as Lake Three.
Another four were used to create a 40-square-kilometer lake on the Level 3 prairie, benefiting animals with water access, designated as Lake Four.
Thirty-one were used to arrange mountains on the east, west, and south sides.
The derived Second-Level Mountain Ranges lay beside the lakes, causing the territory to be surrounded by mountains on three sides in addition to encircling the lake.
Yi Tian used five Level 1 Sealed Celestial Dao Stones to place five small freshwater lakes within these Second-Level Mountain Ranges for future development of rivers and waterfalls flowing through the prairie or into the Saltwater Lake.
This also provided water resource space for the auspicious beasts in the mountains.
The land arrangement was completed.
Thus far, Yi Tian’s territory, excluding the Saltwater Lake, including mountains and freshwater lakes, spanned a total of 1570 square kilometers.
In comparison to Huaxia’s Pengcheng City, it was 400 square kilometers smaller.
Yi Tian estimated the territory to be nearly 40 kilometers in length and width, forming a regular cube overall.
Ninety Second-Level Sealed Celestial Dao Stones and one Third-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stone remained.
Yi Tian began using the Second-Level Sealed Celestial Dao Stones to fill the Saltwater Lake’s area.
Ninety Second-Level Sealed Celestial Dao Stones filled up to 900 square kilometers of the Saltwater Lake, resulting in irregular depths.
Yi Tian also used a Third-level Sealed Celestial Dao Stone to regulate the shape of the Saltwater Lake, increasing resources for saltwater fish and other marine life.
The Saltwater Lake’s area reached 1500 square kilometers.
Despite the land area growing to 1570 square kilometers, the distance from the mist’s edge to the Saltwater Lake remained almost unchanged.
The environment for the Profound Turtle and Water Qilin expanded significantly.
The Warship Squad could maneuver more freely, but their firepower was insufficient!
Yi Tian completed the territory’s arrangement by two o’clock in the morning.
Only took half an hour to practice Celestial Flame Palm in between, also consulting with Ta Fang for significant territorial developments, with transactions of cotton and fur scheduled for the following night.
The territory was a mess, with interrupted streams and altered roads.
Within the city, no changes occurred.
The territorial Spirit Qi density remained consistent, a blessing from the heavens and earth.
The territory’s expansion provided auspicious beasts with more freedom.
Quadruped auspicious beasts relocated from the northern small prairie to the southern prairie.
Many auspicious birds flew into the mountains and forests.
The prisoners in the Celestial Prison hadn’t been sold yet, awaiting a significant movement post-expansion.
The territory’s terrain still sloped slightly high in the south and low in the north.
Construction of mountain roads, development of farmland, channeling from Lake Four to Lake Two, and river courses from Lake Three to Lake One were underway.
Opening a river from Lake One to flow north into the Saltwater Lake.
Creating river paths left by the small mountain lakes.
Planting trees and building main roads, among other projects.
This day was rather peaceful, surprisingly so.
Peaceful, yet it belied unrest.
Celestial Dao Misfortune, Demon Wolf Abyss, and the end-of-month assessment squeezed so close together.
Yi Tian’s strength endowed him with confidence to face all challenges.
