Chapter 219 Land of Foundation [Fourth Update]_1
After all, this was the foundation for their foothold in the Eastern Mysterious Domain. Hence, the defense could not be compromised.
He promptly built the National Luck Altar and even dug a moat around the city, filling it with spiritual fluid.
After making these preparations, the next phase was stable development.
Although this was just the outskirts of the Eastern Mysterious Domain, there were not a few family clans.
When Chu Yuan first arrived at the Eastern Mysterious Domain, he wasn\'t in a hurry to expand his territory. Instead, he proceeded to recruit Refining Masters, to gather information.
Indeed, he sought to recruit Refining Masters.
He had plenty of basic materials at hand, but he lacked high-level craftsmen to refine them.
This time, he offered extremely generous conditions. As long as they joined Dawu, not only would they receive Spirit Stones, but everyone could receive different Divine Elixers based on their contributions.
Once these conditions were made public, the various powers in the vicinity developed a keen interest in this suddenly emerged force.
Some Refining Masters, upon hearing this, came to Wu City. After Chu Yuan\'s test, they obtained what they desired.
The news of the supply of Divine Elixers was true indeed.
And the considerable quantity was equally true.
Furthermore, from time to time, they could also obtain something called the Sky Element Tea. Upon consuming it, it granted the benefit of enlightenment.
Word spread from one person to ten, and then from tens to hundreds.
A lot of Refining Masters were not exclusively affiliated with any particular power. What they valued was interest. Chu Yuan\'s generous offer naturally attracted a flock of them. Among them, even Refining Masters at the level of a God Position came.
The reason was that Chu Yuan could provide Divine Elixers of spiritual grade.
Such lucrative terms quickly made the reputation of Chu Yuan\'s Great Wu Dynasty soar in this region in a short period of time.
In addition, a considerable number of lower-level Martial Artists also came to Dawu.
They were aware that Dawu was recruiting soldiers. Many of these people were wandering cultivators, without any strong backing power, and naturally sought the protection of a strong force.
Chu Yuan did not reject them.
This was the first city that the Great Wu Dynasty had established in the Eastern Mysterious Domain, and a large population was needed to populate it, serving as the first battle to lay down a foundation.
In today\'s city, there was only a fifty million-strong Divine Martial Army. With the arrival of these people, the city could become more lively, and they could use this as a base for expansion, forming a new territory for the empire.
"Your Majesty, regarding the situation here, your servant has roughly understood it,"
Lu Qianfu arrived in Wu City, in the palace of Chu Yuan.
"This place is called Guihai Prefecture, and it\'s closest to the sea, and the situation in the Eastern Mysterious Domain is vastly different from the Martial Domain."
Lu Qianfu said, "The Eastern Mysterious Domain is full of clans. Besides the Imperial Dynasty, there are many cities, with two of the strongest six-star forces—one called the Eastern Domain Imperial Dynasty, the other called the Mysterious Star Clan. Both are seated by several False Divine Kings."
"Six-star forces, the Eastern Domain Imperial Dynasty, the Mysterious Star Clan."
Chu Yuan was digesting this information.
The power star level, the higher it was, the more difficult it was to increase.
Four or five stars were relatively casual, possessing a God Position could be called five-star, and possessing a Communicating God was also considered five-star.
But to reach six stars, there must be a presence like a False Divine King seated, and even if there is a True God, it\'s only six-star.
It\'s too difficult for a force to reach seven stars, even the Eastern Mysterious Domain doesn\'t have any.
Even the Five Mysterious Domains don\'t have any.
The situation in the Eastern Mysterious Domain was more complicated than he imagined, apart from the Eastern Domain Imperial Dynasty and Mysterious Star Clan, there were also some other forces that possessed False Divine Kings.
However, this was just what Chu Yuan desired.
If the Eastern Mysterious Domain was a completely unified domain, his Great Wu Dynasty suddenly entering would be directly targeted, just as if a force suddenly came to the Martial Domain, Chu Yuan would not let them develop.
Only in a complex and chaotic domain could he stand firm and develop slowly.
"The situation in Guihai Prefecture," Chu Yuan asked.
"Although Guihai Prefecture is just an edge prefecture, there are many large and small forces, and no one can truly dominate. This prefecture is about half the size of the Martial Domain, and the four strongest forces are the Spirit Control Clan, Wild Wave Clan, Thunder Knife Clan, and Earth Spirit Clan."

Lu Qianfu said, "These are the four major clans in Guihai Prefecture that possess a Communicating God."
"Oh? One Guihai Prefecture has four major Communicating God forces." Chu Yuan\'s face showed a slight movement.
"These four major Communicating God forces control a large amount of resource territories within Guihai Prefecture."
Lu Qianfu said, "Your servant believes that if our Great Wu wants to develop in the Eastern Mysterious Domain, the first thing we need is a stable territory. This Guihai Prefecture is not bad, close to the Martial Domain. Later, our ships coming to the Eastern Mysterious Domain can directly dock at the port of Guihai Prefecture.
If we can firmly grasp it in our hands, we can open up the shipping routes between the two domains."
"What you said is correct, Guihai Prefecture can indeed become the first territory of Dawu," Chu Yuan said.
"Your Majesty!"
At this time, after asking for permission, Zhu Fengfeng walked in and said, "Your servant just received news that the four major Communicating God forces have shown great malice towards the arrival of Dawu. At present, they have sealed off their subordinates\' forces, forbidding Refining Masters from going to Dawu, even at the risk of using force."
Although Dawu had just arrived for a short time, it had stirred up stormy waves within Guihai Prefecture.
As long as you go to Dawu to be a Refining Master, you can obtain Elixers for cultivation, and Dawu does not need you to refine artifacts, as long as you refine materials.
For some Refining Masters, this was very straightforward, much more relaxed than painstakingly refining a complete divine artifact.
And ordinary Elixers also counted as rewards, but Chu Yuan also provided a large number of spiritual-grade Divine Elixers.
How precious a spiritual-grade Divine Elixer was. Even those four forces with a Communicating God could not supply it in large quantities.
And once the word spread, even the high-level presiding officers of their clans who heard about it couldn\'t resist this temptation and came to Dawu one after another.
"And they are also planning to deal with our Dawu," Zhu Fengfeng said.
"This is their resistance. The four major forces have a great prestige in Guihai Prefecture. They want to isolate and ostracize Dawu, preventing people from coming and not trading with us. They have even planned to send out powerful people to probe into Dawu\'s strength," added Lu Qianfu.
"Your Majesty isn\'t patient enough to play with them in the long run. Since there are many clans in the Eastern Mysterious Domain, let\'s just make a move directly. We will deal with these four major clans, saving us the trouble of wasting time with them. And which of these four major clans is the most powerful?" Chu Yuan said.
"If we talk about the strongest, it should be the Thunder Knife Clan, which is said to have four or five Communicating God powerhouses. They practice a cultivation technique called the Thunder Knife, which is exceptionally powerful. Is Your Majesty planning to make a move on the Thunder Knife Clan?" Lu Qianfu asked.
"Yes, Guihai Prefecture may only be a desolate prefecture of the Eastern Mysterious Domain, but its strategic position is too critical. Once this prefecture falls into our hands, we will have a base in the Eastern Mysterious Domain. The Thunder Knife Clan is the most rebellious, so let\'s start with them."
Chu Yuan sneered, "Prepare fifteen Sky Warships and directly descend upon the Thunder Knife Clan. There\'s no need to waste words with them. Those who comply with us shall prosper, those who resist shall perish. Let\'s steamroll with might. Expansion territory is different from individual combat, and Your Majesty\'s Great Wu cannot afford to be low-key."
"The Refining Masters of Guihai Prefecture must be concentrated in Dawu. The material gains from a single prefecture are enough for Your Majesty to build quite a few Sky Warships."
Chu Yuan abruptly stood up, "Your Majesty will go to the Thunder Knife Clan first this time to see what they are using to blockade Your Majesty\'s Dawu."
