In the days that followed, Ye Chen and Fatty spent their time constructing the Time Cave and the Star Gate.
In one year, the two had built twelve stargates, at an average rate of one per month. This allowed the lords in this star field to reach any location on the front lines at will, and for the first time, the entire battle situation showed positive progress, compressing the entire dark creatures' battle line back ten thousand star miles.
Of course, the two of them also gained a great deal!
Stargates are different from space teleportation, which is a one-time transaction that consumes a huge amount of energy for a single teleportation.
But stargates are different. As long as you have enough energy, a stargate can stay open indefinitely. It's like consuming energy to open a door. No matter how many people pass through, it doesn't matter to you. You just need to consume energy to keep it open.
The fat man had also roughly estimated that every ten minutes the stargate was open, it would consume about one sixth-tier energy crystal; and the throughput of the stargate per minute was about ten million to twenty million, depending on the planet on which it was built.
Therefore, the fat man's pricing is also very clear: he charges directly based on the quantity. One sixth-tier energy crystal costs ten million members, and he accepts transactions using lower-tier energy crystals or merit points.
In this way, Fatty will gain ten times the profit every time he opens a star gate. Although it is just the most basic energy crystal and there is nothing rare, based on the merit points calculated from sixth-order energy crystals, Fatty's daily income is about 50 million to 100 million, excluding his free time. And this is just for one star gate. With twelve star gates combined, the daily income can be close to 1 billion.
"Tsk! If Meng'er knew this, our annual revenue would be in the hundreds of billions!" The fat man rubbed his hands together, looking excited.
Ye Chen glanced at him indifferently and said, "Si Meng has already obtained the complete Star Gate technology. Your only benefit is the Demon Flame Plane, while she has access to all the myriad worlds!"
The fat man "..."
As the stargates here were gradually completed, Fatty and Ye Chen did not stop, but continued to build stargates leading to other star regions, especially those leading to the other eleven sources of darkness.
Fortunately, since these stargates were not on the front lines of the war, their construction was not difficult. In about six months, the twelve Dark Sources were able to connect with each other, and the crisis in the entire Demon Flame Plane was largely resolved.
The twelve stargates are connected, allowing all lords to quickly reach any strategic location. This enables all lords to concentrate their forces to resist one location. In addition to the spatial node where Ye Chen and his group are located, two more spatial nodes have been compressed back in the past six months.
This strategic information stirred everyone's minds, and many lords even looked forward to the day when the blockade of the Demon Flame Plane would be broken, at which time many lords could return to Blue Star and have a good rest for a few days.
Of course, during the time of building the star gate, Ye Chen and Fatty did not miss out on the interdimensional wars. Some powerful and promising clans were sent to the front lines in batches to hone their skills, and their strength increased to varying degrees.
Even the few members of the Nuwa clan, such as Zixuan and Xu Changqing, were sent out to hone their skills, and now they have all grown to the peak of the sixth rank, just one step away from the seventh rank.
Of course, they weren't the only ones whose strength improved. Although Ye Chen hadn't kept the Time Cave open all the time in the past year, he had still been doing so intermittently for over a hundred years. The Primordial Star had steadily developed to the peak of the sixth rank, and the next step was to move towards becoming a seventh-rank demigod-level lord.
At that time, with the improvement of the territory level, the spiritual energy of the entire Primordial Star will undergo a qualitative leap. At that time, many clans that are stuck at the peak of the sixth rank will easily break through to the demigod level, and the strength of the entire territory will undergo earth-shattering changes.
When that time comes, Ye Chen will become a major force in the Demon Flame Plane Battlefield, and with the strength of the Primordial Clan, he might even directly dominate the plane war here.
"Unfortunately, the seventh rank is still not an easy threshold to cross!" Ye Chen thought to himself with a sigh as he looked at his many clansmen.
In the past year or two, the territory has developed rapidly, but the peak of the sixth rank is like an insurmountable barrier in front of countless clans. Even if they practice various techniques in the Scripture Pavilion, they can only improve their own combat power. Breaking through is extremely difficult.
Ye Chen did the math. There were at least a million clans currently stuck at the peak of the sixth rank, but not a single one of them could break through to the seventh rank. In fact, many clans had even stagnated in their growth attributes.
Ye Chen also consulted Grandpa Jian about this, and the only solution was to upgrade the territory level, which was the only way to remove the restrictions on the clan level.
If a territory does not reach the seventh rank, it is very difficult for a clan to break through to the demigod level. This is due to the limitation of the territory level. The seventh rank is a qualitative change, and it is the beginning of embarking on the path to godhood.
Even some eighth-tier true gods are able to establish their own divine kingdoms and become beings comparable to lords.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult for a sixth-tier lord to cultivate a seventh-tier demigod.
Like Ye Chen, both Zhulong and Noah originally possessed seventh-tier strength and were subdued by Ye Chen, which made the Honghuang Star have demigod-level beings.
However, the clans he recruited through the clan's lair had to follow this principle and wait for the territory to be promoted.
That's not all. The same applies to the eighth and ninth ranks. If the territory has not completed its advancement, it will be extremely difficult for the clan to advance. They must truly surpass everything, even themselves, to have even the slightest possibility of advancement.
"It all depends on Ye Xi and the Three-Legged Golden Crow!" Ye Chen thought, looking at the sky.
Those who can break through before the territory's advancement often possess unlimited potential and are the backbone of the territory. In the future, they are more likely to break through to the eighth or even ninth rank, and their advancement can even accelerate the territory's advancement.
Therefore, he also hoped that his subordinates would be the first to break through and become true seventh-tier units, and then lead the entire Primordial Star to break through and enter the seventh tier in one fell swoop.
Currently, only those with strong talents like Ye Xi and the Three-Legged Golden Crow, who recruited their clans early, have a better chance of success. Others include tribal leaders like the Twelve Ancestral Witches and the Blood Sea Rakshasa King.
They were naturally gifted and had the vision to lead their race. Their growth in strength was also among the best of all races. If we were to say who would be the first to break through, it would naturally be these people.
