Ye Chen talked with the five people for a long time and had a general understanding of what a new lord should do. He then declined their invitation to meet and turned off the projector.
After examining the star map sent by Zhou Wenbin, Ye Chen activated the territory's spatial teleportation function in a certain direction and disappeared into the darkness.
Before they left, they had agreed on several coordinates. If they lost contact, they would go to these locations and leave information so that others could contact them.
Ye Chen is heading to a pre-arranged location. If nothing unexpected happens, Fatty should leave some message there.
"Boom~~~" Suddenly, a booming sound rang out, and the entire territory trembled.
"What's going on?" Ye Chen's feet wobbled. If it weren't for his powerful attributes after the promotion, he would have been thrown into a 360-degree backflip.
"My lord, they are dark creatures, and there are many of them!" Ye Ling said solemnly. The group had already seen the situation outside the territory's shield. Countless dark creatures surrounded them and were constantly launching attacks.
"Oh no!" Ye Chen was startled and quickly stood up, shouting to the people around him, "Everyone, prepare for battle!"
Without him saying a word, many of the clans had already launched an attack on the outskirts of the territory. The fire crows and black birds in the sky swooped down directly, spewing large amounts of flames out of the shield and burning a large number of dark creatures to ashes.
"I was careless for a moment. I forgot that this is no longer a trial space, and there is always the possibility of encountering dark creatures!" Ye Chen thought with annoyance as he looked at his fellow creatures that had already soared into the sky.
After getting the news from Zhou Wenbin and the others, I kept thinking about finding Fatty, but I forgot where I was!
Even though this is a plane that has been reclaimed, the dark creatures it possesses are far more numerous than those in the Trial Space. The sheer number of dark creatures is enough to cause any lord to fall here.
"Fortunately, they are all low-level dark demons, not very strong. It's just that the number is a bit excessive!" Looking at the dark creatures outside the territory's shield, Ye Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief, but the number was still a bit unsettling.
Dark demons are low-level dark creatures, on par with dire wolves, around tier 2-3. The strongest can break through to tier 4, but by then they have already evolved into other forms.
With Ye Xi and the others' strength, dealing with these dark demons was not difficult at all. It was just that their numbers were truly frightening, no less than the enemies he encountered during the last dark tide in the trial space.
You should know that he had a refresh stone in his hand that time, which attracted almost all the level 4 dark creatures in the vicinity. It took him most of the day to clean up the corpses of the dark creatures alone.
"No, I have to get the third clan nest out, and then quickly find a Time Rift to develop!" Ye Chen thought to himself.
The Time Cave is a product of interdimensional exchange, controlled only by a few major powers. Each activation requires a large amount of energy, not even enough to reach the energy level of a Tier 4 magic crystal; it requires Tier 7 energy to activate.
This was something Zhou Wenbin and others told him about, and it was one of the benefits for all new lords. Because any official lord who came out of the trial space could go to the Time Cave, which was controlled by the government, and use it for free for one day. The resources required would be provided by the government.
Don't underestimate this one day. One day in the Cavern of Time is equivalent to a year in the outside world. A whole year of development is enough for a new lord to grow up quickly.
However, the Caverns of Time are not a panacea. They can only provide a safe environment for growth, but there are no dark creatures or resources inside. Apart from accelerating the growth of the Familia, they cannot provide any help in terms of resources or combat experience.
Only those lords who specialize in support skills will stay in the Cavern of Time for extended periods to accelerate the growth of crops and livestock in their territories, providing other lords with abundant resources.
Of course, entering the Cavern of Time is not without its costs. In addition to the enormous amount of high-quality energy, the lifespan of the lord is a major issue. If one stays for too long without the territory advancing, the lord's strength cannot be increased, lifespan cannot be extended, and ultimately, one will still be unable to escape the fate of dying of old age.
Even a Tier 3 support lord with a lifespan of nearly a thousand years can only stay in the Cavern of Time for about three years.
Seeing that the battle outside had stabilized, Ye Chen wasted no time and took out the clan's nest that Yang Tianyou had given him, and began to load it into his territory.
"The third clan's lair is the burial ground of the undead. I wonder what kind of lair it will become due to the influence of the lord's talent!" Ye Chen's face was full of anticipation as he placed the burial ground between two large trees.
He set up a Tai Chi formation in his territory, using the silver-leafed laurel tree and the red-sun parasol tree as the extreme points. Now, he had to place the burial ground in the middle, making it a place where life and death alternated, and transforming it into the line in the middle of the entire Tai Chi formation.
As the burial site was placed, a wave of deathly aura swept over, yet it also carried a trace of life. Moreover, the entire Tai Chi formation seemed to come alive, with Yin and Yang energies alternating within it, and the spiritual energy concentration of the entire territory increased by a level.
"Bloodline Nest - Burial Ground successfully formed! Due to the influence of the Lord's talent, the Bloodline Nest has changed. Please check it yourself, Lord!"
"Boom~~~" A huge mountain range rose from the ground and stretched across the middle of the entire territory. The entire mountain range was filled with a thick black death aura. On the highest peak, a huge city was faintly visible.
Ye Chen looked around and saw that the city was tall and majestic. The city gate was carved with various evil ghost heads, which looked lifelike and very sinister and terrifying. However, Ye Chen's face lit up with joy when he saw the plaque on the city gate!
