’Star Stones’ are invincible!
’Gravity Domain’ is invincible!
The only flaw is that this thing attacks indiscriminately—
It crushes the enemy!
And it also crushes me!
Yan Chuan realized: "’Gravity Domain’ isn’t for me to use against enemies, but like the ’Star Gate Domain’, it can enhance cultivation!"
With the Star Stone in hand!
Yan Chuan put away the Star Stone, stopped twitching, and took large strides into Nanyue Lake.
Yan Chuan arrived at the core waters of Nanyue Lake.
’Nanyue Lake’ receives water from the Gan River, Fu River, Xin River, Rao River, and Xiu River, as well as the Ba Yang River, Zhang River, and Tong River. After regulating, it branches into two lake mouths, flowing east into the ’Dan River’, the largest river in the domain of the Six Great Royal Cities, which flows mightily from west to east through the three Great Royal Cities of Danhu, Hunxi, and Qi Wu, then sharply turns south, passing the two Royal Cities of Fan Tomb and Qi Wu.
Five of the Six Great Royal Cities!
That’s the Dan River.
And Nanyue Lake has another lake mouth, flowing south into ’Huan River’ and ’Yao River’, which eventually channels into the vast ’Yize Swamp’, forming hundreds of miles of marshland.
Not mentioning the Dan River.
Not mentioning Yize Swamp.
At this moment, Yan Chuan stood by the lakeside of Nanyue Lake, positioned on a mountain peak, where he could directly observe the vast expanse of Nanyue Lake, seeing its vastness, but when it came to specific details, such as the lakeside paths, and the beasts and alien creatures hidden under the cover of vegetation and rocks, he could see no clues merely by looking from afar with the naked eye.
Even the so-called ’Thousand-mile Mirror’ of the Great Yan, though named ’Thousand,’ could barely see three to five miles, and to see clearly a person’s face, the distance had to be reduced to even just one mile.
In the ancient, towering woods of the Nanyue Lake area, where light is obstructed, the ’Thousand-mile Mirror’ is utterly useless.
But Yan Chuan is different—
At a mountain peak by Nanyue Lake, Yan Chuan was eagerly observing through a monocular Thousand-mile Mirror.
After "Treasure Rock" upgraded, Yan Chuan figured out the enhancement mechanism, using ’Spiritual’ to enhance items without hesitation, he could unleash his Fist and Feet freely.
"Treasure Rock" had only two slots, allowing only two enhanced items at once, with the ’Golden Silk Silkworm Armor’ permanently occupying one, leaving Yan Chuan just one slot.
This slot, Yan Chuan had used to enhance the ’Red Tassel Spear’, ’Flying Knife’, and ’War Boots’, replacing one after another upon failure, seemingly failing each time, but in life-and-death combat, these provided Yan Chuan with three, four, even more surprise weapons, excelling in the ability to be swapped at will.
Due to its ’mobility’, and since "Treasure Rock"’s enhancement mechanism wasn’t transparent, Yan Chuan dared not enhance useless items without caution. Be it the ’Red Tassel Spear’, ’Flying Knife’, or ’War Boots’, they all benefitted Yan Chuan in combat or survival, he dared not experiment with others.
Surprise weapons like the ’Sky Shattering Bow’ or the ’Wind-cutting Saber’ had a higher base level, and enhancement could likely yield better effects.
But Yan Chuan dared not.
He feared that if successfully enhanced, they would long occupy an enhancement slot without significantly enhancing his strength or survival ability, it would be too wasteful.
Including hats, earrings, rings, necklaces, Yan Chuan was keen to try but dared not indiscriminately experiment, worried that he might suddenly ’luckily’ break through to level 11 and never fail enhancement again, wasting a slot.
This included the ’Thousand-mile Mirror’.
But now it’s different—
"’Golden Silk Silkworm Armor’ temporarily occupies one stably."
"’Red Tassel Spear’ can also temporarily occupy one stably."
"The other two don’t need to be fixed."
These two, at present, are the ’Tiger Skin War Boots’ and the ’Thousand-mile Mirror’—
[Miracle Item·Thousand-Mile Telescope (Level 10): A telescopic monocular Thousand-mile Mirror crafted with top craftsmanship of the Great Yan. (Traits: Far-sightedness, Night Vision, Water Penetration, Life Detection)]
"The Great Yan’s monocular Thousand-mile Mirror, roughly ten times vision distance, can see a person’s face from a mile away."
While the Level 10 Thousand-mile Mirror’s vision distance enhances to 100 times!
"Beyond ten miles, my Thousand-mile Mirror can also see a person’s face!"
With this ’Thousand-mile Mirror’, Yan Chuan could easily observe significant movements within a fifty-mile radius, see the approximate form of larger objects or life forms within a twenty-mile radius, and see a person’s face clearly within ten miles.
The ’Night Vision’ trait allows Yan Chuan to observe regardless of day or night.
The ’Water Penetration’ trait ignores water refraction, enabling an effect akin to ’X-ray’, but only in clearer water, not murky.
The ’Life Detection’ trait can detect strong life signals within the vision range, clearer and more accurate the closer, fuzzier the further.
"Closer are bigger, further are smaller."
"This distance, this signal, it is a Limit-breaking Level ’Purple Ring Snake’."
"That’s an ’Ink Wolf’ pack, led by a Limit-breaking level life form!"
"Underground, could it be a ’Stone-piercing Beast’?"
"Hiss! With a golden line on the abdomen, that’s a Limit-breaking Level ’Five-step Golden Snake’!"
Yan Chuan stood on the mountaintop, scouting the path tens of miles ahead with the Level 10 Thousand-mile Mirror, seeing many dangers.
The ’Purple Ring Snake’ has a purple ring-like pattern on its belly, adult Purple Ring Snakes are roughly three zhang long, and are Limit-breaking level life forms.
The ’Ink Wolf’ individual is not strong, but the pack leader is often Limit-breaking level, leading the pack, wave upon wave, tougher than high-ranking Limit-breakers.
The ’Stone-piercing Beast’ is nearly one zhang long, covered in scale armor, its claws and teeth can easily penetrate rocks, it is a Limit-breaking creature living underground.
