“Chief Li, let’s begin!”
While Su Nongying was talking to the new players, Ji Ye also spoke into his earphones.
“Yes, sir!”
Upon Dragon Peak.
Li Chunfeng held his Taming Compass in one hand and took out the Dragon Stopping Needle with the other hand. He then stuck it into the cold pool.
Bright white light shone when he activated his Transcendent power.
Whoosh!
During the process, the entire Dragon Peak trembled slightly.
“What’s going on here?”
“Is the mountain shaking?”
“Is it an earthquake?”
Because the providence altar was built at the foot of Dragon Peak, the new players felt the fluctuation.
After all, they had only just recovered from Nie Xiaoqian’s music.
“Look!”
But soon, they noticed that the person in the image had changed to Li Chunfeng, who dressed like an intellectual but wore a Daoist hair accessory.
“Who’s that Daoist priest?”
“He doesn’t look familiar. I don’t think he’s mentioned in the Dragon City profile in the forum.”
Because Li Chunfeng only arrived yesterday, even the second-and third-batch players that weren’t core personnel of the settlement didn’t know who he was, let alone the new ones.
“This is Chief Li Chunfeng, who only joined us yesterday!”
Su Nongying then introduced him.
“It’s Li Chunfeng.”
“Li Chunfeng?!!”
“Who’s that?”
The players reacted differently.
Those who had heard of Li Chunfeng’s name looked enlightened, and those who knew his legend opened their eyes widely.
Of course, some players hadn’t heard of Li Chunfeng before. They watched the unfamiliar hero, wondering what he was about to do.
“There were many experts on celestial bodies throughout history, and Zhang Heng’s ‘celestial theory’ was the most outstanding of them all!”
Upon Dragon Peak, Li Chunfeng spoke loudly.
“Zhang Heng’s book Ling Xian said: In the past, the king of heaven would walk in the heavenly pass and use the fixed spiritual path to find the ultimate source.
“The sky’s the biggest, and the earth the most solid.”
With that, the yellow providence clouds that had remained in the sky above the settlement after the advancement test started rolling.
“Wait, is the sky getting darker?”
“Look, there’s the moon and stars.”
Meanwhile, the sky above Dragon City suddenly darkened.
Immediately after that, the new players saw that the sun, the moon, and stars were appearing in the sky at the same time.
And Li Chunfeng went on chanting something about the land and stars.
Although the light had dimmed, because of the glowing Taming Compass, Li Chunfeng attracted even more attention.
“What’s going on?”
“Is it the skill of the 36 Heavenly stars?”
“Is it Li Chunfeng’s Daoist skill?”
The new players were both worried and curious.
“The heavenly bodies move from the east to the west, and the circle goes on forever!”
Li Chunfeng went on chanting loudly.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Immediately, the sun, the moon, and the stars began to fall.
They all fell toward Dragon City. While the new players watched in panic, they suddenly gathered around the center of the city and formed a silver instrument about 3m in diameter. The instrument was in the shape of a metallic ball surrounded by the ecliptic and equator, and the sun, the moon, and the stars circled it.
[Celestial Globe]
[Level: Special]
[Rarity: Perfect, Rare]
[Description: It can be used to monitor heaven and earth and change astronomical phenomena!]
Strictly speaking, Li Chunfeng’s choice of coming to Dragon City had something to do with the fact that Dragon City was going to create a Celestial Globe.
In history, Li Chunfeng had made important improvements to the Celestial Globe. One could say that he was an expert in the instrument, second to the legendary Zhang Heng only.
However, the Celestial Globe itself wasn’t enough. The legendary Celestial Seismograph referred to the instrument that was the combination of a Celestial Globe and a seismograph. That was the rare heavy treasure that was going to be made this time.
“It’s made of refined copper, with a diameter of eight feet. It’s covered with a ridge and looks like a wine vessel. It’s decorated with seal scripts, turtles, birds, and beasts. It has a capital column in the middle and eight side bars. It is used as a gateway. There are eight dragons outside, each holding a copper ball in its mouth. There’s a toad below each dragon with their mouth open to catch the ball. The gadgets in the mouths are skillfully made, all hidden in the vessels and carefully covered. If there is a ground movement, the vessels will vibrate, and the dragons will spit the balls. The toads will catch the balls, making a loud clanking sound…”
The sky above Dragon Peak was as bright as before now.
As Li Chunfeng chanted, the yellow cloud of providence started rolling again.
They formed a Celestial Seismograph that was also about 3m tall. It was made of brass with eight golden dragons that were also made from brass coiling around it. Below, eight golden toads sat there with their mouths open.
“The purple palace is the residence of the supreme emperor, and the heavenly court is where the five emperors stay. In the bright hall, Big Horn and Heavenly City each has its own position.”
After the seismograph was completed, Li Chunfeng moved onto his final step.
There was a rumbling sound.
The edges of Dragon City began to change. A great amount of rock and soil rose out of the ground as if an invisible hand was pulling them up.
In an instance, they formed a solid Transcendent city wall that was 50m high.
On the city wall, offensive and defensive structures such as forts and sentry posts had already been arranged.
Whoosh!
Huge water poured from the sea into the sunken area with a depth of tens of meters due to the rise of the city wall, forming an equally impressive moat!
“Sweet mother of god!”
“That’s a magnificent city wall…”
“I don’t think even the ancient imperial capitals had such walls.”
“Of course, they didn’t. With their resources and manpower, walls of over a dozen meters were their limit. Anything higher would be unattainable and impractical.”
Because of the height of the altar, the new player could see the rising wall and the running moat from the image overhead at the same time. For the first time, they all looked astonished.
Even Chidragon that was known for its large-scale infrastructure projects would need at least a month to achieve that, let alone men of ancient time.
In the Land of Inheritance, the whole process took less than 30s.
“The black dragon curls up to the left, the white tiger crouches to the right, the vermilion bird flaps wings to the front, the turtle turns its head at the back, and the Yellow Emperor stays at the center!”
Li Chunfeng hadn’t finished yet.
“Hoooo!”
Up on Eagle Peak, blue wind gathered, looking like a living creature.
It then formed a semi-transparent Azure Dragon of the east that was over 300m long and coiled around the mountain!
Clang!
The sound came from the technology department on the west side of the settlement, where the isolated Silver Liquid Island was.
A large amount of metal power was attracted by the great Feng Shui formation and formed a White Tiger of the west that was the same size as the dragon.
Splash!
Flames surged up to the sky from the Demon Volcano on the south, forming a soaring Vermilion Bird of the south.
“Gurgle!”
In the Mirage Monster territory where the Mirage Dragon Warship was, a Feng Shui formation was also placed in the sea.
The water rose out of the ground and the sea, forming a 300m Black Tortoise in the air.
“Azure Dragon and White Tiger… Are they the four divine beasts?”
“No, look at that mountain…”
After the Feng Shui power was activated in the four restricted areas, something happened on Dragon Peak as well.
The True Dragon Terrain seemed to have been triggered and broke out of the mountain. It formed a semi-transparent yellow dragon above Dragon City, and it felt more majestic compared with Azure Dragon on Eagle Peak.
“There’s a yellow dragon at the center! They’re not four, but five divine beasts!”
“Look! There’s another dragon!”
Apart from Azure Dragon and the yellow dragon, they heard another dragon roaring in the City Master’s residence.
Immediately after that, a solid black Flood Dragon that was 30m long flew into the sky.
