1045 Cruel Way of Development

Seeing this, Liu Yan's face lit up.

Although his spiritual attribute was only increased by three points, which did not seem like much, the improvement did not cost anything.

This meant that the creatures within the spiritual origin stone's range, whether they were cultivating, fighting, resting, or even eating, drinking, and defecating, could continuously obtain an improvement in their spirit energy. It was undoubtedly extremely exaggerated.

In addition, although an increase of three points in one's spiritual attribute at a time was not a lot, the effect was constant. The increase in one's spiritual attribute over time would not be small.

If all the Team Origin members within the range were to be totaled up, the sum would be even more exaggerated.

This spiritual origin stone could bring a huge improvement in the spiritual attribute of the entire Team Origin!

Liu Yan was quite surprised. He did not expect that the spiritual origin stone could improve his spiritual attribute so much.

However, when he thought about the Withered Tree Spirit King's words, he understood.

Spiritual origin stones were extremely precious and powerful. The one in Liu Yan's hand was an SS-grade spiritual origin stone, so its effects were naturally even more exaggerated.

Before this, this SS-grade spiritual origin stone had made the entire tribe of Hallucinatory Man-eating Flowers stronger. It was obvious how precious it was!

Liu Yan couldn't help but rejoice. Fortunately, he didn't choose to perform Divine Extraction on the spiritual origin stone and damaged it. Instead, he chose to use it to improve the Team Origin members' spiritual attribute.

Otherwise, he might have missed this opportunity!

Liu Yan's mood improved as he felt his spiritual attribute improve continuously.

At the same time, the other members in the wooden house area also sensed the increase in their spirit energy.

Sensing the continuous increase in their spirit energy, they were puzzled.

"Strange, why is my spirit energy increasing? The increase isn't great, but it's constant."

"What's going on? I haven't even entered the essence pool yet. Why is this happening?"

"Isn't this too awesome? My spiritual attribute can be improved without me doing anything?"

"D*mn, if this continues, won't I become an expert too?"

"Could it be because I just entered the essence pool?"

"..."

The Team Origin members in the wooden house area were all surprised and had various speculations.

No matter how many speculations they had, to have their spirit energy increase without any pressure was undoubtedly a good thing.

Liu Yan, who was the one behind all this, did not know about their speculations. At this point, he had already placed the SS-grade spiritual origin stone properly before taking out the corpses of the four Lakonian experts from his storage ring.

These four Lakonians were the ones that he had dealt with on his way back.

Although the situation was urgent at that time, he did not miss out on this good opportunity to increase his strength. He had placed all four Lakonian experts in his storage space.

Now, he hurriedly took them out, planning to make his move as soon as possible.

Firstly, they had not been dead for long, so using the SS-grade Soul Snatching skill on them now would allow Liu Yan to search and find more of their memories and thus obtain more information.

Secondly, he was doing this for safety. After all, they were Lakonians who had unique methods. For safety reasons, he wanted to take advantage of the time when the territory barrier was still around to perform Divine Extraction and then clean up the traces.

Otherwise, when the territory barrier disappeared, without the perception isolation effect of the barrier, even if this place was very far away from Lakon Territory, there was no guarantee that Lakon Territory had special methods to find the corpses of these four Lakonian experts.

If that happened, it would bring danger to the Origin Territory. Liu Yan definitely could not let such a thing happen!

After taking out the corpses of the four Lakonian experts, Liu Yan first used the SS-grade skill of Soul Snatching.

A purple light enveloped the corpses on the ground, and he could immediately see their memories.

Because they were corpses, the memories he saw were all in a mess. The memories of the four corpses were mixed and fragmented.

Still, Liu Yan continued to search patiently.

The memories he found included the memories of their life in Lakon Territory since they were young, their cultivation and others. These were not very important, so Liu Yan skipped over them.

What he focused on were the memories after they entered the Tower, especially after they reached the sixth level.

There were two main categories. One was information about the Lakon Territory, and the other was their recent memories.

After a careful search, Liu Yan learned more about Lakon Territory.

He discovered that the reason why Lakon Territory could grow to this stage, other than its own strength and development, was mainly because it devoured the resources of other territories.

The thing was they didn't do so through the normal battle of territories. It was usually from the inside out.

Only now did Liu Yan realize that Lakon Territory's plan against the original Lighthouse Territory wasn't unique. Instead, they had the same plan for all other territories.

The Lakon Territory would first send out a certain number of members to lead the new Lakonians who had just arrived at the sixth level of the tower to blend into other territories. Then, when the time was right, they would annex those territories, thus rapidly increasing the strength of the Lakon Territory.

During this process, many of the Lakonians who had just arrived on the sixth level of the tower would die since they were without the protection of the Lakon Territory.

However, this seemed to be the effect that the Lakon Territory wanted. Although many had been sacrificed, the survivors were all elites. It was just right to let those elites join the Lakon Territory.

After searching through these memories, Liu Yan could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.

Lakon Territory had only been established for a few years, but it was able to gradually stand out among the tens of thousands of territories, surpassing the territories established by the geniuses of other races, and rapidly becoming stronger. So it turned out that it relied on this method of devouring other territories.

This method could be said to be extremely cruel. Not only would it harm other tribes from within, but it was also extremely cruel to the new Lakonians.

The Lakon Territory could be said to be extremely cruel to both their enemies and their own people!

It was only at this moment that Liu Yan realized that he seemed to have saved Lu Dajiang and the other Blue Planet people in the Lighthouse Territory.

Although his original intention was for the Origin Territory, judging from the result, he had undoubtedly saved many Blue Planet people who were led by Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan.

In addition, Liu Yan also learned more about the defensive buildings and defenses of Lakon Territory from the memories of these four Lakonian experts.

Luo Feng and the others, whom Liu Yan had also soul-searched, had a low status within Lakon Territory, so the information they knew was limited. Naturally, they couldn't compare to these four Lakonian experts.

After learning all of this, Liu Yan couldn't help but feel shocked. He didn't expect a level 6 territory to be so powerful.

Only now did he realize that the gap he thought was between the Origin Territory and Lakon Territory was much smaller than the actual gap.

Then, Liu Yan searched through the recent memories of the four Lakonians.

Only then did he understand why the few Lakonians were not as strong as him but could sense his presence.

Just as he had guessed, they didn't sense him with their abilities or equipment. Instead, they saw through his invisibility through the treasures that the Lakon Territory had given them.

This also gave Liu Yan a reminder: Although the invisibility skill was very useful, it seemed to be nothing in front of these powerful territories. It could be easily foiled.

Fortunately, after Liu Yan finished his follow-up search, he found that Lakon Territory had yet to discover the existence of the Origin Territory, let alone its location.

They weren't even sure which territory Liu Yan came from, and they had yet to track him down.

After knowing this, Liu Yan confirmed that at least for now, the Origin Territory had not appeared in the sights of Lakon Territory. It was temporarily safe.

With this, the Origin Territory was safe for the time being, and there was still some time to develop. Liu Yan heaved a sigh of relief.
