Chapter 2116: Heavenly Source Sacred Assembly, 883
 

The Blazing Prairie Heavenly Soldiers were clad in black armor and wielded combat weapons, forming battle formations with their blood qi. A thousand soldiers formed a formation so powerful it could sweep thousands of miles.

Their armor could withstand the force of all but divine beasts, and the weapons in their hands could even injure the divine beasts.

Although a single soldier might not be a match for a divine beast, once they formed a battle formation, even divine beasts would have to flee.

Blazing Prairie City had a thousand such heavenly soldier battle formations.

This was the result of twenty years, during which Han Muye gathered all the Divine Pattern Masters across the Wasteland to refine the black armor and combat weapons, thus forming this formidable army.

A million heavenly soldiers were Blazing Prairie City’s strongest reliance.

Beyond these million heavenly soldiers lay over eighty million soldiers in various Blazing Prairie military legions.

Each legion was a million strong, comprising both powerful divine beasts and Demon Beast War Mounts.

The thirty billion human race fully supported the eighty million-strong legions stationed across the entire Wasteland.

Of course, the resources of the Wasteland alone were insufficient to sustain them.

As early as ten years prior, Bu Taishan’s tunneling passageway had been opened.

A hundred-yard-wide road stretched for a hundred thousand miles, cutting through dozens of mountains.

When the road connected the outside of the Wasteland to the booming Vast Wilderness hinterland, everyone was thrilled.

But in the next moment, they had to face an encirclement attack from the divine beasts and the human tribes outside the Wasteland.

Zhu Rong had no choice but to personally take command at the end of the great road, where he killed ten high-tier divine beasts single-handedly, paving the road with their blood.

That battle shattered the heavens and split the earth; Wasteland military formations assembled outside Bu Taishan, killing nearly to the point of rivers of blood within a thirty thousand mile radius.

In the end, several dozen primordial high-tier divine beasts intervened, and millions from the human army closed in.

However, relying on Bu Taishan and the deterrent of the Overlord Level Heavenly Storehouse Wood, neither the divine beasts nor the allied human forces dared to breach into Bu Taishan.

Eventually, negotiations led to a contract stipulating that the Wasteland army could not venture beyond a hundred thousand mile radius.

A hundred thousand miles were sufficient for the Wasteland Human Race at that time.

An endless stream of forged items from within the Wasteland was exported, and trading posts were established every hundred thousand miles.

Lightweight tools, practical refined items, various swords and black armor, and mostly household goods, including many items carved with divine patterns.

There was a Fire Knife with a divine pattern, instantly creating fire when needed.

There was a Water Sword with half a divine pattern, able to summon a spring of clear water when needed.

There were two-feet long wooden clogs carved with the Water Cloud Rune, allowing one to traverse rivers.

…

The countless items that transformed the daily lives of the Vast Wilderness Human Tribe and other tribes were mass-distributed throughout the Wasteland.

No tribe could resist the allure of these simple, lightweight items.

Most crucially, they could be exchanged for generally not-so-precious ores and spiritual materials.

In ten years, it wasn’t just the Wasteland, but nearly the entire primordial world, all human tribes, and divine beast tribes that had changed their appearance.

For example, where once animal skins and beast teeth symbolized bravery, now only the sturdiest weapons and strongest armor symbolized a true warrior.

Once, clothing and food were primitive, but now there were luxurious clothes, delicious food—not dwellings of stone houses but palaces and large houses.

As for transportation, besides various divine pattern-crafted vehicles, more were trained demon beasts.

The well-trained demon beasts from the Wasteland were then sold into the Vast Wilderness hinterland, and vast trading groups were formed to rent and sell such transportable beasts across the region.

In just ten years, the previously defined hundred thousand mile boundary between the Wasteland and the Vast Wilderness hinterland had vanished.

But nobody truly pursued these matters.

From the perspective of the divine beasts and human tribes outside the Wasteland, this was the assimilation of the Wasteland Human Race.

Meanwhile, within the Wasteland, Blazing Prairie City was daily converting massive amounts of resources into its own power, having no time to contemplate.

Ores, spiritual materials, food, and various goods transported from outside the Wasteland were woven into high-grade fabric, forged into refined spiritual materials, processed into various types of food, and then distributed to various cities.

Those cities and the surrounding human populations began refining black armor and combat weapons, tailoring clothes, and then sending the finished products back to Blazing Prairie City.

The Wasteland transformed into a vast machine, ceaselessly operating.

In ten years, it altered the entirety of the primordial world.

Of course, the changes in these ten years involved not only the human race but also the divine beast tribes.

Twenty years ago, Han Muye regrouped the Lightning Sea, allowing the primordial divine beasts to attract tribulations for themselves.

Subsequently, the souls of a million divine beasts from the God-slaying Spear returned to their places of origin in the heavens and earth.

Since then, the origin of the primordial world had become unimaginably potent and complete.

In these twenty years, countless divine beasts triggered the bolts of lightning within the Lightning Sea, transcending various tribulations.

Each tribulation was a consolidation of origin and purity for the divine and demon beasts, a step up in strength, while for the primordial world, it was an accumulation of origin power.

The purification of these divine and demon beasts’ origins resulted in a significant portion being absorbed by the world.

Moreover, transcending tribulations was risky.

Those divine and demon beasts whose bodies were shattered by the bolts of tribulation directly nourished the world itself.

Overall, today’s primordial world had undergone tremendous change.

Blazing Prairie City.

Inside a vast building resembling a palace, people bustled about in the spacious hall.

Each person here was a Divine Pattern Master, all highly skilled in various divine pattern carvings, capable of crafting various weapons and armor.

This place was essentially the heart of Blazing Prairie City.

Every day, countless black armors and combat weapons were refined here.

At this moment, in the deepest part of the hall, Han Muye’s chamber, Zhu Rong sat opposite, with two figures sitting below.

These two figures were a young girl resembling Chongyun Tianque, and a white-bearded elder clad in a gray robe, his hair completely covered.
