Chapter 1007 - 1007 Endless Potential

1007 Endless Potential

In the early morning, the five squads of Team Origin, along with Huang Yuan and Lu Dajiang’s two squads, had already gathered early and were prepared to depart.

For the sake of safety, all team members needed to be fully assembled, leaving no room for oversight.

With the headcount complete and everyone accounted for, they were ready to embark on their journey.

The massive Withered Tree Spirit King had been stored away by Liu Yan. Henceforth, the Withered Tree Spirit King would accompany Liu Yan, embarking on a new path of training.

As for the substantial population of Withered Tree Spirits residing deep within the Hallucinatory Forest, they would remain in their habitat, continuing to thrive there.

Initially, Liu Yan had contemplated taking some of the Withered Tree Spirits along. Given their significant numbers and formidable strength, they could potentially provide valuable assistance.

However, these Withered Tree Spirits remained relatively low in strength and were unable to leave the Hallucinatory Forest. Otherwise, their strength and even their lives would be seriously affected.

Even the formidable Withered Tree Spirit King could only exit the Hallucinatory Forest if it had established a Soul Contact with Liu Yan, allowing it to leave through his means. Without such an arrangement, the Withered Tree Spirit King would remain trapped within the Hallucinatory Forest, saturated with wood attribute elemental powers.

Ultimately, Liu Yan chose to forgo this approach. After all, the members of Team Origin were poised to experience rapid improvements in their strength.

As the members of the seven squads assembled, Liu Yan activated the teleportation array.

The teleportation array was exclusively accessible to members of the Origin Territory. While the members of Huang Yuan and Lu Dajiang’s squads were not yet able to use it.

However, as the captain of the Origins Territory, Liu Yan could set the authority for them to use temporarily.

When they arrived at the Origin Territory, they could join the Origin Territory.

A teleportation array appeared in front of everyone.

Seeing this, the members of Team Origin were happy and excited.

After all, the last time they had used a teleportation array to reach the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest was to evade the onslaught of the Lighthouse Territory. Their purpose then was to defend against the attack from the Lighthouse Territory. They were uncertain when they would be able to return to the Origin Territory.

However, in a matter of days, they had managed to successfully resolve the situation with the Lighthouse Territory. Now, they were finally able to return to the Origin Territory.

“We can finally return to the Origin Territory.”

“Haha, I miss my wooden house. It’s where I’ve made rapid progress in my cultivation.”

“I miss my wooden house too. It’s hard to get a good night’s sleep here.”

“We’re finally going back home.”

“Originally, I thought it would take a while before we could return. I didn’t expect this day to come so quickly.”

As the members of Team Origin were expressing their excitement, the members of Huang Yuan and Lu Dajiang’s squads had peculiar expressions.

They were aware that teleportation through designated points was possible. However, the fact that the Origin Territory, a new territory, could establish a teleportation point at this time caught them off guard.

“Is this the designated teleportation point?”

“No wonder they suddenly disappeared. So they came here through the teleportation array.”

“I was wondering why they vanished all of a sudden. So it was through the teleportation array.”

“Isn’t it necessary to be at least at level-2 to set up a teleportation point? Could it be that the Origin Territory is already at level-2?”

“Are you serious? It took us a full two months to successfully upgrade to level-2.”

“There might be a few new territories that can reach level-2 before the territory barrier, but very few.”

The members of Huang Yuan and Lu Dajiang’s squads were all quite surprised.

In truth, they hadn’t held the Origin Territory in high regard. After all, it was merely a new territory. While the members of Team Origin were undeniably skilled and talented, in their eyes, they were just average.

The only aspect that caught their attention was the captain of the Origin Territory, Liu Yan. Having such formidable strength as a newcomer was truly remarkable.

If it weren’t for the need to evade the Lakon Territory and obey Huang Yuan and Lu Dajiang’s orders, they might not have even considered the Origin Territory, let alone wanted to join.

However, now it seemed that apart from Liu Yan, other aspects of the Origin Territory were also quite exceptional, surpassing their initial expectations.

One by one, the team members stepped into the teleportation array.

Before long, all the members of Team Origin’s squads, along with Huang Yuan and Lu Dajiang’s squads, had entered the teleportation array and disappeared into the depths of the Hallucinatory Forest.

Simultaneously, in the teleportation square of the Origin Territory.

White light flashed, and team members appeared one after another, teleporting to this place.

Seeing the familiar surroundings of the Origin Territory, the members of Team Origin were overjoyed.

Although they had received the assistance of numerous Withered Tree Spirits deep within the Hallucinatory Forest, their situation was not dire.

However, the Origin Territory was undoubtedly the most familiar and reliable.

Meanwhile, members of Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan’s squads were taking a curious look around the Origin Territory.

“The city wall is so short, only 100 meters high?”

“That’s how new territories usually are, it’s normal.”

“A 100-meter-high city wall already signifies a level 2 territory, and that’s quite impressive. It’s much stronger than we were when we first started.”

“Indeed, it seems that the Origin Territory has some decent potential.”

“Wait a minute, I remember level-2 territories having city walls only about 60 meters high. How come this one is 100 meters high?”

“These unique structures don’t seem like something you can find in a typical level-2 territory. Could it be that they possess Gold potential?”

“Wait a second, the Lord’s token of the Origin Territory is Gold? Wasn’t Team Origin the first to reach the sixth floor of the tower?”

Lu Dajiang and Huang Yuan’s squad members exchanged surprised glances as they evaluated the surroundings. They were astonished to discover that the Origin Territory seemed to possess a Gold potential Lord’s token.

It was worth noting that the disparity between potential levels of Lord’s tokens was immense and could significantly impact the future of a territory.

To top it off, the Origin Territory boasted a Gold Lord’s token. Coupled with their previous completion of an S-grade mission, wasn’t this exceedingly remarkable?

Lu Dajiang looked at Liu Yan in astonishment and inquired, “The Lord’s token of the Origin Territory has Gold potential?”

Wei Feng chimed in, “I recall that you completed an S-grade mission. Did that elevate your Lord’s token to Gold potential? Or was it something else?”

Huang Yuan and the rest also turned their gazes toward Liu Yan, eagerly awaiting his response.

Facing them all, Liu Yan didn’t hold back. He simply nodded and explained, “We were the first to advance to the fifth floor of the tower, so naturally, we possess a Gold potential Lord’s token. Moreover, we completed an S-grade mission, which has now elevated our Lord’s token to Platinum potential.”

Liu Yan’s answer left everyone present astounded. They hadn’t expected their Lord’s token to have reached Platinum potential.

A Gold potential Lord’s token was already an incredibly formidable asset, let alone one at the Platinum potential Lord’s token.

Previously, the Lighthouse Territory had started with just a bronze Lord’s Token. It was only through completing significant missions that it managed to ascend to a silver Lord’s Token.

The reason the Lighthouse Territory’s development was constrained lay in the fact that its Lord’s Token had insufficient potential.

In contrast, powerful territories like the Lakon Territory possessed a Gold potential Lord’s Token, enabling them to grow into such formidable entities.

However, Lu Dajiang, Huang Yuan, and the rest hadn’t anticipated that the Origin Territory would possess a Platinum Lord’s Token.

This revelation imbued the future potential of the Origin Territory with a sense of terror.

Huang Yuan cast a meaningful glance at Liu Yan and remarked, “I never imagined the Origin Territory to possess a Platinum Lord’s Token. With such a token, the Origin Territory’s future won’t pale in comparison to the Lakon Territory.”

At this moment, Huang Yuan couldn’t help but feel fortunate that he had sided with Liu Yan.

Though the Team Origin members might be somewhat underpowered currently, their talents were undeniably strong.

Conversely, according to Huang Yuan’s observations, the Team Origin members boasted robust talents. This indicated that their future growth wouldn’t be lackluster.

Needless to say, Team Origin’s captain, Liu Yan, was an incredibly heaven-defying genius. As a captain of the new territory, he had already attained such astounding strength, far surpassing the combat capabilities of the mightiest figures in established territories.

With a crew of such capable members and a captain who was a heaven-defying prodigy, the Origin Territory was destined for greatness in the future.

And now, the existence of a Platinum Lord’s Token further contributed to the genuinely fearsome outlook for the Origin Territory’s future.

Huang Yuan had a premonition that, with himself and his team members joining the Origin Territory, their destinies might very well be altered.
