Ye Yun mercilessly exploited the demon races of the Outer Universe with no psychological burden whatsoever.
They were enemies by nature; it was generous enough to leave them any room for development.
"Master, currently, the number of territories that have applied to join our Cloud Sky City and are willing to become our sub-cities has reached over fifty, all located more than two hundred thousand kilometers away from Cloud Sky City. Three are within two hundred thousand kilometers," Yue Di said respectfully from below Ye Yun's seat in the manor, observing Ye Yun lost in thought.
As Cloud Sky City's level advanced to Star level, Cloud One City and Cloud Two City, which had been prepared long ago, followed suit. Furthermore, the other four races outside had also begun their journey, preparing to establish their territories fifty thousand kilometers away from Cloud Sky City, one externally and one internally!
Concurrently, across the entire New Mortal Continent, new faces suddenly appeared everywhere. These were all members of the Seven Races. Upon receiving the news from Yue Di and the others, they immediately entered this place once classified as a dangerous map, then followed the game coordinates, rapidly moving according to them.
The Seven Races constructed a total of fourteen territories distributed within fifty thousand kilometers around Cloud Sky City. The most crucial aspect was that Ye Yun and his group had saved enough tokens!
Compared to the Tuo Yun Ling, obtaining special tokens like the Bi Shui Zhu was much simpler than those for surface structures like the Kai Tu Ling and Jiang Tu Ling!
Therefore, in less than five days, they received twelve requests for territory construction completion and the establishment of teleportation arrays!
Damn it, these guys were definitely targeting his money! It was just a coincidence that his spirit stones were just enough to construct twelve teleportation arrays!
Ye Yun looked at the sixty million spirit stones in his pocket and had to divert fifty million spirit stones, originally intended as development funds for the Dragon Palace members. There was no other way; one couldn't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb!
Ye Yun looked at the hundreds of billions of gold coins and just over a thousand spirit stones, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief. At least he still had funds for acquiring medicinal herbs. Moreover, all the city dwellers were quite supportive, occasionally providing Ye Yun with spirit stones or gold coins.
While Ye Yun was constructing the teleportation arrays, Cloud One City and Cloud Two City, and even the newly established Cloud Three City to Cloud Twelve City, were all running localized advertisements in their respective regions.
The goal was singular: recruitment!
With the abundant supply of tokens, all fourteen sub-cities were promoted to one-star level territories. Each sub-city could accommodate 42,240 players, with a capacity ten percent higher than the main city, which Ye Yun found extremely unreasonable.
However, to Ye Yun's surprise, Cloud Eight City was the first to be filled among the fourteen sub-cities. This was the exclusive territory of the Moon Shadow tribe, and all forty thousand-plus inhabitants were members of their clan. Following suit, the exclusive territories of the remaining six races were also filled.
Compared to the exclusive territories, the preceding seven territories appeared somewhat mixed, making management considerably more complex.
As teleportation arrays were completed one after another, more and more players entered Cloud Sky City. However, they were not citizens of Cloud Sky City; the vast majority were citizens of sub-cities visiting out of curiosity.
"Wow, I thought the main city was supposed to be amazing, but it's just this? There are no more than ten types of buildings in total."
"Buddy, I feel like I've been tricked too. You can charge fees, and the scenery is beautiful, but seriously, when you get here, it's just clouds and more clouds."
"Brother, be content. At least you can get some of your cost back by worshipping the City Lord's statue, and more importantly, you can earn some contribution points. It's worth it."
"Brother, your math must have been taught by music teachers!"
"Damn..."
Just as everyone was discussing, a player, with a trembling finger, pointed at the sky and was speechless. This prompted a group of players who had just met less than a minute ago to look along.
"What is that?"
"It looks like a ferocious beast..."
"Are ferocious beasts that big? Also, why is it above the Holy City? It seems quite friendly?"
Groups of players entered the main city, looking at the vaguely discernible dark shadows above the clouds, unable to help but point and discuss.
"That's the City Lord's pet. Stop crowding around the teleportation array and blocking the way. Go do what you need to do..."
Just as everyone was still guessing, Yue Di's figure appeared, and a title 'Deputy City Lord of Cloud Sky City' was added after his nickname above his head.
"Greetings, Deputy City Lord!"
Seeing Yue Di, almost all the players hurriedly bowed. In the Outer Universe, the law of the jungle was taken to its extreme. Strength, power, and status were all wielded by the strong.
Just like Yue Di, although his strength was not top-tier in reality or in the game, at least in the New Mortal Continent region, he held power second only to one and above ten thousand! Especially with the powerful establishment of the Seven Races, no one dared to underestimate him.
Soon, the players gathered around the teleportation array began to move around Cloud Sky City, being harvested by Ye Yun for the second time.
Ye Yun was completely unaware of all this. At this moment, his consciousness had withdrawn from the Heavenly Dao. He was flashing continuously in the depths of the universe, piling up fragments of the Heavenly Court at the edges of the domain gates of the Human Race star domain and the God Race star domain.
As for the gate of the Ninth Outer Universe, Ye Yun was not worried at all. Based on Ye Yun's past life experience, the Ninth Outer Universe would not be able to trace its way here within three years, and two and a half years later, it was the demons of their own Outer Universe who would enter Blue Star for a large-scale harvest.
However, the entire Human Race star domain had only one domain gate and one star domain gate, while the demon race could pass through the God Race star domain, which implied a certain tacit understanding of mutual benefit between the God Race and the demon race.
"Vast emptiness, it's just me alone, feeling like I'll get depressed if I'm alone for too long."
Looking at the endless void, Ye Yun couldn't help but sigh. The dozens of kilometer-sized meteorites around him were rapidly colliding under Ye Yun's divine sense, forming a flat ground ten kilometers in size.
On the flat ground stood a gray-white ancient building, resembling a giant aircraft carrier carrying a building, sailing in the endless void.
It seems something is missing...
Ye Yun rubbed his chin, examining his masterpiece. Then he took out a card and slapped it onto the top of the building. Immediately, the entire land seemed to be activated, and countless runes and Dao patterns shot up into the sky.
Ye Yun was still not satisfied. He once again materialized ten Immortal Stones and ten God Stones from the game and strategically threw them into a certain Dao pattern nearby. Instantly, the entire land surged with wind and clouds, and a light shield appeared on the ground, with specks of green appearing on the surface...
This is...
Ye Yun was greatly surprised. His original intention was to establish a dojo for his personal cultivation here, and then set up a protective formation. Considering the need for sufficient spiritual energy for cultivation, he had prepared some Immortal Stones and God Stones. He never expected that by doing this, life would actually appear on this small piece of land?! Although it was just wisps of green grass, it was still life!
