Rainstorms, extreme cold, earthquakes, mutated plants and animals, extreme heat, acid rain, blizzards… various natural disasters come one after another, the established order collapses, survival ...
Here, the cold outside was gone, and it was no longer a world of ice and snow. The air was filled with the fresh scent of sunshine and grass. All her senses were fully awakened, and a rich energy enveloped her, seeping into her body through her skin, making her feel so comfortable that she wanted to lie down and take a nap.
She was now beside the spatial lake. It was completely different from using her mental power to perceive it. She looked up at the endless shore and felt refreshed under the sunlight. She took a deep breath and felt a sense of peace.
Overjoyed, she activated her mental energy, and a house instantly sprang up from the empty land beside her. The style was similar to the courtyard houses before the apocalypse, except that where there should have been blue bricks, stones were used instead. Blue bricks also required a special firing process, which she did not know how to do, and the walls did not have the carved beams and painted rafters of those courtyard houses, so it was somewhat lacking.
But Lin Ruo was already very satisfied; there was no need to nitpick. Being able to live in such a house was already quite good.
Standing in front of this house, with a smile that crinkles my eyes, I realize that this kind of house, full of life and warmth, is more fitting for this kind of environment.
She transported all sorts of daily necessities from the static space, and within minutes the house was completely transformed. Lin Ruo stepped inside, looking around as she walked, thinking that she could now enter the space too, and could bring Afu and the others in for a short stay whenever she wanted. They would no longer have to worry about her and refuse to stay in the space any longer.
Suddenly, she remembered the important matter. She hadn't yet seen what changes had occurred in the life space during this space upgrade. She stood in the middle of the courtyard, closed her eyes, and used her spiritual power to connect with the entire space.
After the spatial ability was upgraded again, the area of the life space undoubtedly doubled again. Now there is a lot of land left vacant, and the crops planted in the space were also accelerated to maturity by this upgrade. With so much land available, she needs to consider what to plant.
Furthermore, after drinking a cup of lake water, she immediately realized that the energy in this space had become even more concentrated.
Lin Ruo didn't know what it felt like in this space before, but now that she was standing in this space, even though she was at such a high level, she felt warm all over.
Thinking that Afu and the others were still outside, Lin Ruo didn't stay in the space for long. She only stayed for an hour to harvest and store the mature crops and fruits in the space, and then tidied up the other things in the space before leaving.
When she appeared in the fortress, Ah Liu and the others were indeed a little anxious.
While they were resting, they suddenly sensed that their master's presence had disappeared. At first, they thought that their master had teleported away again, but considering that their master had just returned, he shouldn't be going out for the time being. So, A-Liu asked the mutated plants on the mountain, but none of the mutated plants outside had seen Lin Ruo.
They knew their master's teleportation distance wasn't that far, and they became anxious.
They only felt relieved when Lin Ruo reappeared in her room and approached her.
"I have good news for you all. I can enter the space now, and we can live together inside from now on."
Lin Ruo's words made the family very happy. Compared to the outside environment, they naturally preferred the space. However, they chose to stay outside with their owner because she was outside. Now that she could enter the space, they could hide inside together when natural disasters came, as that was the safest place.
...
The cold wind howled, and the snowflakes falling from the sky swirled in the wind, covering the ground in a white expanse. A dark shadow swept past at high speed in the gale. Lin Ruo, wearing a mask, glanced down at the no-man's-land as she passed through the sky, her mental energy instantly extending downwards for tens of kilometers.
She could see everything clearly, whether it was the snow tens of meters thick on the ground or the underground conditions tens of kilometers deep.
After her mental power was upgraded, she could control it better and it could reach further. She focused on only one direction, and her mental power extended 60-70 kilometers. The terrain in this place was relatively low-lying. She wanted to see if there was anything unusual down there, but she found nothing.
Thinking of the situation in Hengshan and City B, Lin Ruo withdrew her mental energy in surprise and continued flying towards Hengshan.
After her water-based superpower was upgraded, her flying speed also increased significantly. What used to take more than two hours to reach Hengshan by flying now only took her a little over an hour to land at the foot of Hengshan.
Hengshan Mountain was very different from when she first came here. The entire mountain was now completely covered in green. In just over a year, the mutated plants on the mountain had grown to the point where they could even grow snow. The snow on the mountain was already tens of meters thick, which showed how fast the mutated plants were growing.
Her purpose in coming here was to wipe out all the mutated creatures at the foot of Hengshan Mountain and stockpile enough food for A-Liu and the others.
Without hesitation, she flapped her wings and landed steadily on the fluffy snow. Then, her spatial domain unfolded, extending fifty kilometers downwards. Before any of the creatures within could detect the danger, their crystal cores were immediately removed by the spatial energy, and they were all absorbed into the space.
While manipulating spatial energy to harvest the mutated plants and animals below, Lin Ruo moved her body, which sank slightly downwards and soon disappeared into the soil.
There are already quite a few level seven mutated beasts at the foot of Mount Heng, and those mutated plants, like Ah Liu and Lao Bai, have reached level eight.
After venturing deeper underground, Lin Ruo discovered that the energy there seemed even more concentrated than before. Lin Ruo didn't know the reason and didn't want to investigate further. She had come with a mission and needed to return home as soon as possible after completing it.
She stirred up a huge mess in the underground of Hengshan Mountain in less than half an hour. During this time, she collected the essence of over a hundred level-seven mutated beasts and dozens of mutated plants. These things alone would be enough to keep those big eaters at home going for a while.
She scanned the completely ravaged underground with her mental energy. If it weren't for the impending natural disaster, she would have liked to capture some mutated beasts or mutated plants from other places and put them here. She couldn't just harvest without sowing seeds.
“It’s alright. After the natural disaster is over, if this place is still here, we can move the entire mountain here and take over this treasure land for ourselves.”
