Chapter 3085 A Rune Suitable for the Enlightenment Cicada!

Blood Love had modified more than 1,000 spider-species lifeforms with her sundial bloodline.

After obtaining their divine kingdom ability, these spider-species lifeforms would soon be able to enter the divine kingdom and transform it, allowing a large number of lifeforms in the faith country to become fanatics of Blood Love and produce a significant amount of faith power.

Jasmine Lily alone struggled to produce a large number of fanatics in a short period, but with Blood Love's help, it became feasible.

Blood Love, who had reached the Holy Spirit level, brought Lin Yuan an unexpected surprise.

Since Blood Love had already learned a lot about the Sky Beyond the Clouds from Lin Yuan, she realized that her newly obtained divine kingdom ability had made her a wanted criminal there. However, Blood Love still liked her new divine kingdom ability. This was because her ability, Spider Sundial Protection, could help Lin Yuan significantly.

"Lin Yuan, with my new divine kingdom ability, I can only stay in North of the Lonely River from now on. If I go out and let others discover my divine kingdom ability, I will become a wanted criminal. Many people will surely be eager to cause trouble for me!"

Just as Creation Masters could see through feys' abilities and exclusive skills in the main world, high-grade Creators could see through other feys' divine kingdom abilities. Even if they were not Creators, it was very likely that some feys' exclusive skills, abilities, and even divine kingdom abilities had a certain level of detection ability.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan nodded. This divine kingdom ability, extremely useful to the faith country, was indeed a huge restriction for Blood Love and deprived her of the opportunity to show her face.

Lin Yuan knew that Blood Love had a very adventurous spirit. He thought for a moment and said to her, "Blood Love, you're currently operating across the four universes. Once you're discovered, it will immediately attract fatal consequences. From now on, I will provide you with sufficient food. Don't cross the Lonely River to look for food at the other end. When we explore the abyss later, I'll bring you along!"

Blood Love did not care much about this. Although she could only stay in North of the Lonely River in the future, all her restraints in the Sky Beyond the Clouds were here. More importantly, being in North of the Lonely River would not hinder her strength improvement and she could still be of help to Lin Yuan.

"Lin Yuan, my Spider Sundial Protection requires a large number of high-quality spider-species feys. I can transform them very quickly, so I need you to help me prepare more. From now on, I'll help you convert more lifeforms in the faith country into fanatics."

Lin Yuan had stored many high-quality feys from various species while conducting trades, and there were many spider-species feys among them.

"Later, I'll sort out all the spider-species feys I have. There will be at least 10,000 of them, enough for you to use for a while. I'll help you find spider-species feys with potential in the future."

Blood Love looked at Endless Summer, who was still absorbing the tree cores, and did not stay there any longer. Instead, she went to look for Wen Yu.

Blood Love planned to have Wen Yu find the members of the Wisdom Eye Brain Dragonfly and spread these spider-species feys that she had modified throughout the faith country to ensure their safety.

As soon as Lin Yuan returned to Sky City, he asked Liu Jie to bring the 3,000 Spirit Craftsmen he had brought back to report to Hu Quan. Previously, Hu Quan had been complaining that he did not have enough manpower. Now that Lin Yuan had filled Hu Quan's manpower needs, the number of Spirit Craftsmen that Hu Quan could manage had increased nearly tenfold.

Not long after Blood Love left, Hu Quan came to see Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan was not surprised by Hu Quan's visit; in fact, he had expected it sooner. As Hu Quan looked at Lin Yuan, who sat there with a thoughtful expression, his face showed a complex mix of emotions—excitement and anticipation mingled with a sense of heaviness.

Previously, with only three to four hundred Spirit Craftsmen under his supervision, Hu Quan had often felt that their number was insufficient, leading to inefficiency. Tasks that should have taken a month dragged on for half a year.

Despite his constant complaints about the lack of manpower, Hu Quan did not feel pressured in the previous environment. But now, with Lin Yuan replenishing Sky City with thousands of Spirit Craftsmen—the weakest of whom were Class 3—the situation had changed drastically.

The Class 3 Spirit Craftsmen in the Sky Beyond the Clouds were different from those in the main world. If a Class 3 Spirit Craftsman from here were placed in the main world, they could already reach the level of a Class 4 or even Class 5 Spirit Craftsman.

When Hu Quan first joined Lin Yuan, he was barely considered a Class 3 Spirit Craftsman by the standards of the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Now, Hu Quan was at the early stage of Class 4, still a certain gap away from an intermediate Class 4 Spirit Craftsman. Among the new Spirit Craftsmen Lin Yuan had added, some were even stronger than Hu Quan, making his position as a leader seem somewhat forced.

While Hu Quan was pleased that Sky City had so many Spirit Craftsmen to develop rapidly, he also felt immense pressure.

Upon seeing Lin Yuan, Hu Quan bowed and said, "Young Master, I've already settled the Spirit Craftsmen you brought over. They've integrated into Sky City and can start working at any time."

Gritting his teeth, Hu Quan continued in a serious tone. "I've divided Young Master's Spirit Craftsmen into 14 teams, each with more than 300 people. This structure is most suitable for large-scale projects. I've selected 13 leaders for these teams, and I'll continue to lead the Spirit Craftsmen under me as the team leader of Team 14. What do you think—"

Before Hu Quan could finish, Lin Yuan interrupted, "Uncle Hu, if I wanted to make such arrangements, I wouldn't have asked them to look for you. I guess you don't really understand what I mean. The reason I got these Spirit Craftsmen to look for you is so you could manage them. Uncle Hu, do you think you can't manage these Spirit Craftsmen well?"

Hu Quan sensed Lin Yuan's deep trust in him. However, there was a significant gap between him, a Spirit Craftsman from a small world, and the local Spirit Craftsmen from the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Hu Quan had experienced this gap when communicating with the new Spirit Craftsmen.

"Young Master, I have no problem managing these few thousand Spirit Craftsmen, but in terms of ability, I can't compare to a few Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen. If I manage them, it will be very difficult for them to trust me. I'm afraid this will cause the entire team to disband. If I'm just leading one of the teams, then I might barely be able to win their trust."

In Lin Yuan's heart, Hu Quan had always been a confident person, so he was somewhat surprised to hear him express these concerns.

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Uncle Hu, I bought these Spirit Craftsmen from the talent market in Diverse City. They will guarantee absolute loyalty here. Even if your abilities are not as good as theirs, they can only harbor thoughts in their hearts and not dare to show them openly.

"Uncle Hu, didn't you always say you wanted to learn the Spirit Craftsman techniques of the Sky Beyond the Clouds? From my understanding, Spirit Craftsmen here are usually closely related to bloodlines.

"Some species are very suitable to work as Spirit Craftsmen because of their bloodline, but there are still many special methods for you to learn. You might not be as capable as them now, but you can grow. You're all Class 4 Spirit Craftsmen. Are you going to continue being inferior to them in the future?"

Lin Yuan's words made Hu Quan extremely excited. He knew that Lin Yuan valued him and intended for him to oversee all the Spirit Craftsmen, even though Lin Yuan's current ability was inferior to theirs. Otherwise, Lin Yuan wouldn't have been so resolute in affirming him when he had taken the initiative to relinquish his authority.

Lin Yuan secretly thanked himself for not letting Wang Xuan and Zhu Shoudan accompany him to find Hu Quan. Otherwise, encountering Zhu Shoudan, a pinnacle Class 4 Spirit Craftsman, might have truly shattered Hu Quan's morale.

Previously, Hu Quan didn't know the origins of these Spirit Craftsmen. Now that he did, his heart was much more at ease. If these Spirit Craftsmen were under Lin Yuan's control, at the very least, it ensured that when managing them, they wouldn't act against his intentions and impede progress!

Hu Quan was very confident in his learning ability. He had never had a master to guide him, but after following Lin Yuan, Night Leaning Moon was the only one who had taught him.

Hu Quan had no understanding of mechanics initially, but he had mastered Night Leaning Moon's mechanics in just a few months. Even Night Leaning Moon was surprised by his learning ability.

Now that he had come to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he had access to more Spirit Craftsman knowledge. These Spirit Craftsmen of various species, even those with lower levels than him, could become his teachers and help him acquire more knowledge.

Originally, Hu Quan was depressed, but now he realized this was a huge opportunity. Since Lin Yuan trusted him so much, he had to respond to that trust.

"Young Master, I certainly won't be inferior to them. It won't take long for me to master their abilities and improve my Spirit Craftsman skills."

The improvement of a Spirit Craftsman's abilities didn't have a clear dividing line like that of a Creator, where the degree reached and the potions concocted could lead to grade advancement.

The grading of a Spirit Craftsman was extremely complicated, involving many different systems.

Hu Quan believed he was qualified to become a Class 5 Spirit Craftsman in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan smiled and asked, "Uncle Hu, do you still have the confidence to lead the entire Spirit Craftsman team?"

Hu Quan pounded his chest. "Young Master, since you trust me so much, I certainly won't disappoint you!

"I would like to recommend Liu Tong as the manager of Team 14's Spirit Craftsmen. I brought Liu Tong up from the main world. Among all my disciples, Liu Tong is the most talented. Team 14 is filled with seniors I brought from the main world. As the team leader, Liu Tong will definitely be able to convince the masses. As the commander-in-chief, I will definitely lead these 14 Spirit Craftsman teams well!"

Hu Quan then told Lin Yuan about his future plans for the Spirit Craftsmen's work.

Due to the previous lack of manpower, Hu Quan couldn't implement many of his plans. Now that he had these Spirit Craftsmen, he was extremely excited to carry them out.

Many of Hu Quan's plans were developed in collaboration with Zhong Zhiyu, and Lin Yuan didn't interfere too much in this regard.

After Hu Quan left, Lin Yuan was contemplating which fey to strengthen when he suddenly entered a mysterious state.

A Willpower Rune appeared in Lin Yuan's sea of spiritual energy. The rune carried a sense of transparency, imbued with an enlightening essence that applied to all things.

Ever since he had contracted the Enlightenment Cicada, Lin Yuan had comprehended three Willpower Runes. Comprehending the Willpower Rune was now as easy as drinking water for him.

Lin Yuan looked at the Willpower Rune he had just comprehended with joy. It was the most special one yet and very compatible with the Enlightenment Cicada that Morbius had just spirit-locked.

Lin Yuan summoned the Enlightenment Cicada and used Morbius' True Data to investigate it.

[Fey Name]: Enlightenment Cicada

[Fey Species]: Transparent-winged species/Spotted-winged species

[Fey Grade]: Bronze (10/10)

[Fey Type]: Natural

[Fey Quality]: Legend

Abilities:

[Comprehension Enlightenment]: Through the smell emitted by the target and its cry, it can temporarily increase the target's comprehension of nature and the target's own comprehension ability, greatly increasing the target's comprehension.

[Enlightenment Protection]: During the process of enlightenment, the target can be prevented from suffering the backlash of external forces.

Exclusive Skill:

[Indestructible Cicada]: When your body is damaged by external forces and dies, its antenna will integrate into the natural environment and become a part of it. After a period of time, it can be reborn in this environment.

The moment, the Enlightenment Cicada could absorb Lin Yuan's Willpower Rune at any time. In fact, Lin Yuan had previously comprehended a Willpower Rune that was suitable for the Enlightenment Cicada. However, it was much inferior to this transparent rune.

Ever since the Enlightenment Cicada had been spirit-locked by Morbius, it had become closer to Lin Yuan. Upon sensing the existence of Lin Yuan's newly comprehended transparent rune, the Enlightenment Cicada danced around Lin Yuan's finger. It clearly wanted to absorb this Willpower Rune so that its life level could undergo a transformation.
